The battle lines between Nijigasaki and Liella! have been drawn. Thanks to Golden Calf's corruption of the latter, every school idol territory in Tokyo is under siege of a complete takeover.
It is up to the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club to defend...
The preparations ran so late! And it had to be the day Maki invited me to a ball!
She said it's a formal party and that I should dress formally, but I've never even been to a ball before.
Sure there was that junior prom me and Ayu went to, and Mia's sister's wedding, and that party back in January...
But nothing like this!
Of course it had to be a Hotel Ohara, but luckily for me I couldn't see any sign of...well...her, anywhere.
But I could see Maki waiting for me!

AKI: "Maki!"
MAKI: "You're late."
I bowed my head.
AKI: "I'm so sorry!"
MAKI: "Geez. I can't believe you kept me waiting so long! My Papa was trying to pair me up with all of these potential suitors... It was annoying stalling for time..."
ACK! Man, I feel bad... I should have been more careful with time, but I've been constantly off my feet all day (even during a damn relaxation tournament!), all I can do is wipe the sweat out of my eyes and-
Huh? Wait, wh-wh-wh...
AKI: "Whoa!"
MAKI: "What?"
I've spent all this time apologizing and making excuses that I completely ignored what Maki is wearing!
All I can say is...
...Wow.
Maki looks gorgeous in that dress.
MAKI: "Don't just stare at me. If you have something to say, say it."
AKI: "U-Umm..."
Damn it, why am I getting so nervous suddenly? I never have trouble speaking to her... So why now of all times?!
If I have something to say to her, I should be brutally honest as always!
