Love Live!: School Idol Showcase [PART 5]

FACING FAILURE:

AKI: *Groan*

AYUMU: "Wh-What's wrong? Do you have a stomachache?"

AKI: "Oh, sorry, Ayu. It's not that I'm feeling unwell. I've become like this thanks to Diver Diva's performance..."

AYUMU: "You looked like you were writhing in pain."

AKI: "Who wouldn't?! It's Karin, who's so grown-up and cool, and Ai who's so cheerful and energetic... Teaming them up was a stupid decision! How the hell have they turned one of my biggest failures into a great success?! It makes no sense!
They pulled off such an amazing performance. This must have been a secret weapon.
Our Sub-Units were a failure, end of story. But those two have turned that failure into something. I can't wait to see what they can do with this!"

AYUMU: "Y-Yeah... Sure."

AKI: *Sigh* "I get captivated all over again replaying the performance in my head. I've become an even bigger fan of those two.
They face their failures, they face their challenges head-on with all their strength. Even when it seems tough, and create new charming qualities. I can't help but admire them."
