Cue!

It truly feels real once you get the script.

With my masterful acting, just awakened from the deepest recesses,

I shall plunge this wonderful world into depravity!

Good morning!

Good morning.

Where's Naru-chan?

She was probably gaming all night again.

Is she going to be okay like that?

Mei has her schedule and body figured out, so she'll be fine.

You really do eat the same thing every morning, huh, Sato-chin?

I've made it a thing to eat cheese toast in the morning.

Don't you get sick of it?

If I don't stick to my routine, I feel off.

What are your plans for today?

I'll leave the dorm at 8:00 AM.

I'll put on my shoes, left foot first,

and exit with my right foot first.

I'll get on the train to go to my university at 8:14,

use the second ticket gate from the right,

and enter my classroom with my left foot first.

For lunch, I'll have a kitsune udon in the school cafeteria,

with two sprinkles of shichimi pepper.

After my lectures, I'll go to the library.

Then I take a break at the café by the station until the lessons begin.

I'll use my right hand to open the café door—

Okay, okay, we get it!

Okay.

So what happened to you guys?

Apparently, there's a chance that Project Vogel might be shutting down.

But why?

I don't know why,

but we're getting some kind of important announcement from our CEO today.

It's because people's hearts are fickle.

Well, it's time for me to go.

Okay, good luck!

She really is precise, huh?

Actually, I Won't Take This Job

Wow, this sure is something.

A serious lineup, quite to my liking.

I see.

That's a nice camera.

I love it!

I really like to look through the pictures after we're done.

Wow, this is...

Even among the International Drama Masterpiece series,

Catherine, the Little Girl From the Farm

International Drama Masterpiece

this one is a top-three gem.

I really like that, too!

The main character, Catherine, is so cute!

Who did the voice acting for her again?

Utsugi Ryouko-san.

Utsugi-san, huh?

So that means...

That's right.

She's Satori's mother.

Who are you talking about?

Utsugi Ryouko-san.

And what was that about the person who voice-acted Catherine?

Utsugi Satori.

Sato-chin?

Wait, you mean she's your mother?!

Yes.

That's amazing!

Why did you hide the fact that your mother voiced Catherine?

I didn't hide it. You never asked.

That's so cool! That's awesome!

Having a mom who's a top voice actress really is awesome.

It's time.

We're supposed to meet in the CEO's office now.

Thank you for coming, everyone.

I asked you all to come here today for one reason.

I have a very important announcement to make about Project Vogel.

The Vogel project has been forging steadily ahead,

with events and live shows in various locations,

but it has been decided that it will be concluded now.

That means Chun×4 is....

I knew it!

It feels like it's been so long, yet so short.

Damn it. Why?!

Does anyone else need some air?

And that it will be relaunched with additional members.

Rio.

Yes.

Project Vogel

Project Vogel is moving on to a new stage

Let's fly even higher!

Let's fly even higher!

Let's fly even higher!

What is this?

Project... uh...

Himmel. That means "sky"!

So is this a project that takes Vogel even further?

That's right.

Vogel's activities have borne fruit,

so the decision was made to scale up and restart the project.

That's great.

That means you guys get to continue.

I'm so happy!

We can fly!

I was about to book my plane ticket home.

What are you talking about? You're from here.

It must have been hard to start from nothing, but this is all thanks to you four.

Thank you!

Everyone here will be part of this new project.

Our first step is to debut a new team of four.

Tamaki Mio

Houshou Tsumugi

Ono Himari

Ohji Ema

If anyone wants to be that team, step forward.

Yes, right here!

We'll do it!

Huh?

Rinne?

Hey, you can't just make that decision.

I mean, we got into Bloom Ball, too,

so we should ride this big wave!

The Bloom Ball recordings are about to start.

Hana Ranman! Bloom Ball

Planet Wars

Episode 1

We should do that properly and then build up our experience step-by-step!

But doesn't singing in front of people sound like so much fun?

Me, sing?!

I-I mean, I understand that it can lead to more voice acting jobs,

but me, a creature of darkness, being on stage and having glowsticks waved at me...

I might turn into a pile of white ash.

Rie, are you okay?

Me... on stage?

Sparkle!

May I take your order?

Oh, um...

There she is! Satori-chan!

What's going on?

They said I might find you here.

I got some incredible news, so I wanted to tell you right away.

There's a plan for an upcoming movie adaptation.

At the End of a Distant Dream

Anime movie adaptation project plan

May I?

Oh, At the End of a Distant Dream?

Do you know it?

I read it a while ago. I thought it was a nice novel.

The truth is, we got a casting request for this project.

They asked for you, Utsugi Satori-san, by name.

What?!

Are you surprised?

I know you must be!

I almost fell over myself when I first got the call.

Y-Yes, I wasn't expecting that.

But I'm happy.

At the End of a Distant Dream

Anime Movie Adaptation Project Plan

Actually, this character will be voiced by Utsugi Ryouko-san.

Main Characters

Iroha

That means you and your mother,

Utsugi Ryouko-san, will be mother-and-daughter co-stars in—

I'll have to turn this down.

What? But why?

Our lesson is going to start soon, so please excuse me.

H-Hey, wait a minute!

Are you really turning it down?

I am.

Is it because you'd be working with your mother?

But that's such a waste!

It's very rare for a rookie to be requested by name.

And this is a movie!

You're not in the position to turn something like this down!

You've just begun your journey as a voice actress.

This is a crucial time for you.

Even so, I won't take this job.

Very well.

What?!

Satori must make this decision for herself.

Wait a minute, Masaki-san.

That's...

But as the one running this agency,

I'd like you to tell me why you're turning down this offer.

I'll hold on to this until then.

Morning!

Oh, morning.

Breakfast! Breakfast!

Sato-chin?

You're eating ramen for breakfast?!

Uh, I guess.

It looks good.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like Satori.

Yeah! I mean, she put on her shoes starting with the right foot,

and stepped out with her left foot first!

Usually, Sato-chin's routine is the other way around!

Isn't ramen for breakfast a bigger issue?

Either way, if Satori diverged from her routine three times...

Something must be bothering her.

Then we need to help her out!

The time to reveal my powers has finally come.

You done?

Attack!

My neighbor's breakfast!
