♪————！

『♪————！』

Akito

Alright, I'm sure you all still have things to do after this, so let's end off here.

よし、今日はこのあとそれぞれ予定もあるし、
こんなところだな

Toya

Yeah. Azusawa, can you still make it in time for your practice with Taiga-san?

そうだな。
小豆沢、大河さんとの練習の時間には間にあいそうか？

Kohane

Yeah! I still have about 10 minutes before I need to go.

うん！
あと10分後くらいに出れば大丈夫だよ

An

How about a little break before you go? You must be tired from all that singing.

じゃあ少し休憩してから行ったら？
ずっと歌ってたし疲れたでしょ

Kohane

Thanks. I'll do just that.

ありがとう。そうしようかな

Kohane

Oh, I just remembered...can I ask you all something?

あ、そういえば……みんな、聞いてもいいかな

An

Hm? What's up?

ん？　何？

Kohane

Um, it's about RAD WEEKEND—

えっと、RAD WEEKENDのことなんだけど——

Kohane

I know that you told me there aren't any videos, but... Is there anything that could help me understand what it was like? Like a photo...

前に映像は残ってないって話してたけど……、
何かその時の様子がわかるようなものって、ないかな？
ライブの時の写真とか……

Akito

A photo? Photos, as well as videos, were prohibited. I don't think those exist either.

写真？　会場の前はともかく、中は撮影禁止だからな。
さすがにねえだろ

An

Yep— But what's with this all of a sudden?

だねー。
でも急にどうしたの？

Kohane

Ah, um, I was talking with Minori-chan and Shiho-chan yesterday about practice and—

あ、えっと、実は今日みのりちゃん達と
練習の話をしてて——

— Some time later —

Toya

I see. Lining up our images, huh.

なるほど。
イメージを合わせるために、か

Kohane

Yeah. That's why I wanted to know more about RAD WEEKEND.

うん。そのためにRAD WEEKENDのことを
もっと知ったほうがいいんじゃないかなって思って

Toya

It certainly would help if we did that.

たしかにそれはできたほうがいいだろうな

Toya

Having a clear image of what your goals are is a very effective way to grow and succeed.

目標とするものをイメージするというのは、
成長するうえで、とても有効な方法だ

Akito

But...we've already told you everything we can.

しっかし……オレ達が話せるようなことは大抵話したからな

An

Yeah. Like the groups that performed and their setlists... We also lent you the CDs of the group that participated.

うん。出てたチームとか、セトリとか……。
あと参加したチームが出してたCDとかもほとんど貸したしね

An

We've also talked about what Dad and the old man said, so is there anything else we could tell you...?

父さんやおじさんから聞いた話は結構話したし、
他に何か教えられるようなことあるかなぁ……

Akito

If it was any other event, we could go to the live house where it took place, but—

他のイベントなら、会場になったライブハウスに
行くって手もあるが——

Akito

RAD WEEKEND's live house has closed down, and the owner's retired.

RAD WEEKENDをやったライブハウスはもう閉まってて、
オーナーも引退してんだよな

An

Yeah. COL was already an old live house, so they decided to have RAD WEEKEND as their last event before they closed down.

うん。『COL』っていうライブハウスなんだけど、
元々古いライブハウスだったから、
RAD WEEKENDを最後に閉店しちゃったんだよね

Kohane

I see...

そうだったんだ……

Toya

And one more thing we need to be able to figure out is...the atmosphere during the event.

あとわかるかもしれないことは……、
当時の雰囲気だろうか

Toya

I heard that it had a different aura to it compared to other events, but—

他のイベントとはまるで違う熱狂があったということは
聞いたが——

Toya

Neither I nor Azusawa have any idea of how different it was.

俺も小豆沢も、それがどんなものかまでは
あまり想像ができていないように思う

Kohane

Y-Yeah! I'd be so happy if I knew!

う、うん！
わかったら嬉しいな！

Akito

That's...hard to do. Words can't even describe it.

それは…………難しいな。
口じゃ説明できねえ

An

Yeah. You probably wouldn't get it no matter how much we explain...

そうだね。
説明しても伝わる気がしないっていうか……

An

It really was—just so amazing.

ほんと——すごすぎてさ

Toya

...It's hard to describe it in words, huh?

……筆舌に尽くし難いということか

Kohane

I figured as much...

やっぱり、そうだよね……

Kohane

(I wonder, how can I get to know more about RAD WEEKEND?)

（RAD WEEKENDのことをもっと知るには、
どうしたらいいんだろう？）

Toya

By the way, shouldn't you be going, Azusawa? It's almost time for your practice with Taiga-san, right?

ところで小豆沢、時間は大丈夫か？
もうすぐ大河さんとの練習の時間だろう

Kohane

Ah...you're right! I'll get going then!

あ……そうだった！
行ってくるね！

An

See ya! I'll ask the customers about RAD WEEKEND for you!

いってらっしゃい！
RAD WEEKENDのこと、一応お客さんに聞いておくね！

Kohane

Sure! Thanks, An-chan!

うん！　ありがとう、杏ちゃん！

Vivid Street

Kohane

Um, the meeting place should be around here...

えっと、約束だとこの辺りに……

Taiga

Hey there, little miss. Sorry to keep you waiting.

よう嬢ちゃん。
待たせたな

Kohane

Taiga-san! I'll be in your care today too!

大河さん！
今日もよろしくお願いします！

Taiga

Yeah, let's get started, then.

ああ、それじゃ始めるか

Kohane

So what are we doing today?

今日は何をするんですか？

Taiga

Let's see; —How about we take a little walk around here.

そうだな。
——ここらの散歩でもするか

Kohane

Ah...okay.

あ……はい

Taiga

What's wrong, not up for it?

どうした、気が進まないか？

Kohane

Ah, um, that's not how it is...!

あ、えっと、そういうわけじゃないんですけど……！

Kohane

It's just, we took a walk last time too...

ただ、前も散歩したなって思って……

Taiga

Haha, you're not wrong about that. But today, we're not simply taking a walk.

ハハ、違いねえ。
だが、今日はただ歩くだけじゃねえぞ

Taiga

Take a good look at this town's scenery and the people walking around, and be sure to remember them.

この街の景色や歩いてる連中をよく見て、
それをしっかり覚えていくんだ

Kohane

The scenery...

景色を……

Kohane

Oh yeah– You told me this before, Taiga-san.

そういえば——前に言ってましたよね、大河さん

Kohane

That we have to "show people sceneries with our songs".

『俺達は、歌で景色を見せていく必要がある』って

Flashback

Taiga

There is a saying that the human eye can gather around 80% of all information.

人間ってのは、目から得られる情報が
だいたい８割を占めるって話がある

Taiga

You can see this town's scenery, people's expressions, feelings, distance, shape, and color. There are a lot of things you can understand just by seeing it.

実際、街の景色や人の表情や様子、距離や形、色、
とにかくいろんなことが目で見るだけでも入ってくる

Taiga

But what about our ears? What can you understand by hearing something?

じゃあ、耳はどうだ？
聞くことによって、どういうことがわかる？

Kohane

Um...what someone is trying to say...?

えっと……相手の伝えたい情報とか……？

Taiga

Yeah, that's right. And also the relationship distance between you and the person you're talking to, and how they'll treat you.

ああ、そうだ。
あとは話しかけてきた相手との距離や向きなんかもだな

Taiga

But as expected—the people who prefer the information we get from their eyes rather than their ears are overwhelmingly more in number. There really are just things you can't get just by using your ears.

だがやはり——人間は耳よりも、
目から得られる情報のほうが圧倒的に多い。
耳からの情報だけじゃ、伝わらないもんがある

Taiga

But even so, we fight with our music.

しかし俺達は歌で勝負してる

Taiga

That's why—we have to show them sceneries with our songs.

なら——歌で景色を見せなけりゃならん

Kohane

Sceneries, with our songs...?

歌で、景色を……？

Taiga

Yeah. And depending on the situation, it can be even more than that.

ああ。
場合によっちゃ、それ以上のもんもな

Taiga

Well, in any case. It's not enough just to let them hear a good song. It's best if you keep that in mind.

……ま、とにかく。
ただいい歌を聴かせりゃいいってだけじゃねえ。
それは覚えておくといい

Kohane

..Yes, sir!

……はい！

Flashback ends

Kohane

—By any chance, is today's walk somehow connected to what you said before?

——もしかして今日の散歩は、
あの時の話と何か関係があるんですか？

Taiga

It's up to you to find that out for yourself. —You still have a lot of time on your hands.

その答えは自分で考えるといい。
——嬢ちゃんには、まだまだ時間があるんだ

Kohane

Ah...! W-wait for me, please!

あ……！
ま、待ってください！

— Some time later —

Kohane

(Remember the scenery...Remember the scenery...)

（景色を覚える……景色を覚える……）

Kohane

(Ah...there's a music instrument store over there?)

（あ、あそこ……楽器屋さんなんてあったんだ）

Kohane

(This place is around the park where we normally practice and I usually walk through here, but I don't recall that ever being there...)

（この辺り、練習する公園の近くだから
いつもとおってるけど、結構覚えてないな……）

Live House Staff

Oh, if it isn't Taiga-san! What are you doing together with Kohane-chan?

お、大河さんじゃないすか！
どうしたんすか、こはねちゃんと一緒に

Taiga

Having a little walk. Just showing the little miss around this place.

散歩だ散歩。
嬢ちゃんにこの辺の案内がてらな

Live House Staff

I see. If have the time, why don't you do a gig here sometime? We'll always be ready to open up a time slot for you.

そうなんすね。
時間あるなら、たまにはうちでも歌ってくださいよ！
いつでも枠空けられますよ

Taiga

Might not be too bad, once in a while. I'll think about it.

ま、たまにはいいかもな。
考えとく

Live House Staff

For reals!? Thank you so much!

マジですか！？
ありがとうございます！

Kohane

(Fufu, Taiga-san sure is popular. Just by walking, so many people are calling out to him—)

（ふふ、やっぱり大河さんは人気者だな。
歩いてても、すぐにいろんな人に声をかけられるし——）

Musician

Huh? Kohane-chan?

あれ？　こはねちゃんじゃない？

Kohane

Huh? Ah...we were together for quite a bit, when I was doing solo gigs...!

え？
あ……ソロでイベントに出てた時、よく一緒になった……！

Kohane

(Wait, won't Taiga-san get mad at me if I start getting distracted...?)

（って、よそ見してたら、
大河さんに怒られちゃうかな……？）

Kohane

(Looks like Taiga-san is still talking with someone, so I guess it's fine if it's only for while.)

（大河さんもまだ立ち話してるみたいだし、
ちょっとだけなら大丈夫かな）

Musician

Kohane-chan, what are you doing here...Wait, is that Taiga-san you're with?

こはねちゃん、こんなところで何やってるの……って、
一緒にいるのって大河さん？

Musician

So the rumours that you've fallen in love with Taiga-san were true?

もしかして、こはねちゃんが大河さんに見初められたってうわさ、
本当なの？

Kohane

Ah, no! He's just helping me with practice!

あ、いえ！
ちょっと練習を見てもらってるだけです！

Musician

But that's amazing in its own right too! Taiga-san is a world-class musician, after all!

それでも十分すごいって！
大河さんは世界クラスのミュージシャンなんだから！

Musician

Man, Taiga-san was so awesome during RAD WEEKEND.

RAD WEEKENDの時の大河さんなんて、
本当にすごかったんだよ

Kohane

You were there to see RAD WEEKEND?

お姉さんもRAD WEEKENDを見てたんですか？

Musician

Yeah, of course!

うん、もちろん！

Kohane

I see. ...Must've been nice.

そうなんですね。……いいなぁ

Musician

Hm? What's wrong?

ん？　どうしたの？

Kohane

Ah...um, it's just that I wish I could've seen it too.

あ……その、私も見たかったなって思って

Kohane

I keep hearing people say how great RAD WEEKEND was but I've never actually seen it...

いろんな人がRAD WEEKENDはすごいイベントだったって
教えてくれるんですけど、
私は実際に見ることはできないから……

Musician

Yeah... And Ken-san's retired too...

そうだね……。
もう謙さんも引退しちゃったし……

Musician

Ah, but there might be some videos out there. I'm pretty sure there's some people who recorded the event.

あ、でも動画はあるかもしれないよ。
たしかRAD WEEKENDを撮影してた人がいたはずだから

Kohane

...Eh?

……え？

Kohane

Wasn't recording prohibited during RAD WEEKEND?

RAD WEEKENDって、撮影禁止だったんじゃないですか？

Musician

Yeah. But there was someone recording at the back. It was dark back there so I don't know who it was, but it was probably a staff member doing it for archival purposes.

うん、でもうしろのほうで撮ってる人がいたの。
暗かったから誰だったか覚えてないけど、
関係者が記録用に撮ってたのかもね

Kohane

...!

……！

Kohane

Ah, thank you so much! I'll—try to look for where to find those!

あ、ありがとうございます！
私——その動画がどこかにないか探してみます！

Musician

Yeah, you go do that. Taiga-san might know something about it.

うん、そうしてみなよ。
大河さんなら知ってるかもしれないしね

Kohane

Okay!

はい！

Taiga

Yo, sorry to keep you waiting. ...Hm? What's wrong?

よう、待たせたな嬢ちゃん。
……ん？　どうした？

Kohane

Um—

あの——

Kohane

Where can I find videos of RAD WEEKEND!?

RAD WEEKENDの動画って、
どこかにあるんでしょうか！？
