| Manager | And with that, here are the members who will participate in the Hinamatsuri event! Bravo! Bravo! |
| Izumi | I’ll leave it to you guys. |
| Sakuya | I’ll do my best! |
| Kumon | I’ll try my best too! |
| Hisoka | Zzzz…. |
| Homare | Alrighty Hisoka-kun, it’s time to wake up. Here’s a marshmallow. |
| Hisoka | Nom.... |
| Masumi | I’ll win for sure... |
| Sakuya | Masumi-kun’s unusually fired up. |
| Masumi | Of course I am. |
| Kumon | Um, so we’re going to participate in the Odairi-sama Contest, right? |
| Manager | That’s right! You’ll be wearing Odairi-sama costumes and going around Veludo Way’s hotspots doing themed challenges... |
| Yuki | Oh, about that... |
| I’m gonna participate in this. |
| Izumi | That flyer... |
| Sakuya | “Ohina-sama Contest”? |
| Kumon | Woah! Yuki’s gonna participate in the Ohina-sama Contest instead of the Odairi-sama one?! |
| Yuki | Yep. If I’m gonna wear a costume, then it’d better be cute. |
| Besides, it looks like you can get a gift card from the Ohina-sama Contest too. I also talked to Sakyo about it and got his permission. |
| It’s open to anyone willing to participate, so it looks like it’s fine for guys to join. |
| Masumi | Hmph. |
| Izumi | It all works out. |
| Homare | It seems that this event will have some unexpected variety. |
| Manager | If we win both the Odairi-sama and the Ohina-sama Contests, then we’ll get two gift cards…! This is amazing! |
| Hisoka | He’s only thinking about the gift cards. |
| Sakuya | Ahahaha… |
| Kumon | You know, I think Yuki would look great in a twelve-layered kimono! |
| Manager | Alright everyone, let’s all do our best to win this thing! |
| By the way, according to the website, the theme for this contest is “wa”.[1] |
| Izumi | Also, it looks like both contests have some themes in common. |
| I think it’d be good for everyone to practice for the themes. |
| Kumon | So we’re doing challenges with a “wa” theme~ Hmm, I wonder what they are... |
| Yuki | Something like old Japanese traditions? |
| Homare | I see… Well then, I think it would be wise for me to teach everyone on the rules of haiku. |
| Wasn’t your specialty the tea ceremony, Hisoka-kun? That secret...[2] |
| Hisoka | Nope. |
| Sakuya | Oh yeah, there might be karuta too! I should go review. |
| Masumi | I won’t lose when it comes to love poems. |
