SIDE STORY: "RED SECTION STORIES"
CHAPTER 285: "BANNER UP THE DIAMONDS IN THE SERENITY CIRCLE AQUAMARINE THAT FASCINATES WITH SMILES AND THRILLS!"

Date: May 3, 2010 (Monday)

This side chapter is focused on Mia Taylor of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club as she's meeting with Mutsumi Hoshiyama for the first time after she had decided to enroll at the Nijigasaki Academy High School for her third and final year in high school.


At the Hoshiyama Residence, Mutsumi Hoshiyama had been taking a matcha tea while watching a Japanese animation series on television. Suddenly, someone had knocked the doorbell in her home, which allows Mutsumi to reach through the entrance to see who is coming to her home. To her surprise, it was none other than Mia Taylor of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.

"Oh, hi, Mia-san!" greeted Mutsumi Hoshiyama, a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Hydrangea Dream Section. At that time, she's not a full member of those groups until a few days later when she becomes an associate.

"Hi, Mutsumi! I'm very happy that you're here at your home!" replied Mia.

"Yep! I lived here with my family, but sometimes, I used to invite some of my friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine if they needed me for some school works and other stuff" said Mutsumi. The Serenity Circle Aquamarine is a friend group that is composed of the friends of Mutsumi being led by Asahi Sugawara.

"Oh, that's great! How lovely your home looked beautiful!" said Mia.

"Yes, indeed!" said Mutsumi before allowing Mia to finally come inside of her home. "Come on in, Mia-san!"

"Okay!" said Mia as she finally enters the Hoshiyama Residence where she had been surprised to see the surroundings of that place, which are all glamorous and stupendous. "Wow! That's so amazing! I didn't know that you have a wonderful home that you got!"

"Yep! My parents have built this like more than 5 years after I initially lived in Konan since birth. Now, I'm feeling comfortable that this is a great home that I can thrill with, thanks to them!" said Mutsumi.

"Oh, that's very cool to hear!" said Mia.

"Anything else to say?" asked Mutsumi.

"Well, I heard that you're planning to join a group in the future because you must be friends with the Bravehearts of Minato. Is that right?" answered Mia.

"Yeah! When the Bravehearts of Minato have announced this a few days ago, me and my fellow classmates were surprised on what they're planning since they have been thinking about forming new special circle groups to gleam through. For me, it's something that it will about to happen in a few days because this will make me feel excited that I want to be part of it" said Mutsumi.

"Ah, okay! What section you come from?" replied Mia.

"I came from section 1-7. Yumi Ichida is the class president and a good friend of Shinako Takanashi. You know, the cousin of Ayumu Uehara?" answered Mutsumi.

"Oh, I'm familiar with her, Mutsumi. It seems that she must be working on her dream plan that she'll be building for her group of friends, which is why she had been very smart on working these ambitious plans" said Mia.

"You know about this?" queried Mutsumi.

"Not yet at the moment. I was with Lanzhu, working on our own projects that we built where we have groomed our very own friends to shine. So far, there are a lot of them being part of it including the fact that we welcomed Fumiko Hirano to the group as our new member" said Mia.

"Wow! I'm stunned that you have a lot of friends that you have groomed through! I didn't know that you're into grooming friends out there!" said Mutsumi.

"Yes, indeed! I came out there as a shy girl before Lanzhu met me up one time when we're back in New York City and it was so great that we have bonded with one another to ensure that we'll have a great time to shine through. Honestly, Lanzhu was actually my first friend that I met because she had been very sweet and generous that I had inspired her and so, we did a lot of side activities in trying to maintain our friendship, plus, we managed to start building a school idol department club where we're trying to add new members that we're targeting, though, we haven't gone into this yet because the 'official' club, which was the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, have already found members that they need. So, we could keep an eye on this at the moment if we want to get an opportunity to step in, but in the future, if things didn't go well, then, we'll plan on joining that group soon" said Mia.

Mutsumi would reply after Mia shared about her friendship with Lanzhu. "Oh, that's very nice that you have a good relationship with Lanzhu, which so nice that you can count through because you might expect to make something big thrills to shine through as long as everything will be just fine. This reminded me on how I have built the Serenity Circle Aquamarine where we used to build our own group with the purpose of building friendships to resonate while aiming to empower everyone through our pride and compassion. At the moment, we have been linked up with Aika Hirashita and her group, the Tiger Halation, led by Shigeri Odawara, where we have a lot of partnerships building up to ensure that we're going to harmonize them in making our community being prospered to believe, resonate and smile. When we were planned about trying to elevate ourselves into the system of the Bravehearts of Minato, we wanted to leap our way to meet new friends that we'll be building, especially that we're aimed of becoming more of a friendly group that we run through. For me, joining the Bravehearts of Minato will give me something big that I would love to build this group because first and foremost, I love to team up with those that they have destined to believe, dream and shine and they're very determined that they'll do whatever it takes to make their lives being uplifted by showing their rainbow hearts to throb and work through compassion. And second, I would love to make a friendship with them to show that I'll be very comfortable to cherish them, leading the seed being growing out until it becomes a full-time friendship that I can achieve. I have been very ambitious of making my community being prospered and harmonized through our rainbow hearts and so, I'll be ready to commit myself to bloom my community and cheer for everyone that they'll make them feel comfortable to share their moments to fly."

"Ah, I see what you're trying to relate with, Mutsumi! You're seemed to be good in making friends that you built to ensure that you're going to make them feel thrilled through your rainbow heart! That's what I like to see for you because people who have been so smart to make friends will make you feel generous like you're about to believe, gleam and smile. That's what I like to see for you being a serene dreamer that you're about to groom them!" said Mia.

"Yes, I am, Mia-san! That's why I wanted to be excited in joining the Bravehearts of Minato because not only that I have impressed Shinako and her friends in building a prosperous community, but it made me feel grateful that I can finally become more passionate to follow their dreams and be part of it by empowering myself to shine" said Mutsumi.

"That's the spirit! I hope that you'll be welcomed to join that group because they need you to work on their future plans while aiming to bring prosperity and harmony in our community" said Mia.

"Sure, I will!" said Mutsumi.

"Aside from you, Mutsumi, who are interested of joining the Bravehearts of Minato?" asked Mia.

"Well, there are at least four of my friends are interested in joining that group, composed of Nichika Kaida, Ruri Kimizuka, Shiho Okami and Kurumi Miyagawa. They're my fellow classmates from my class and they have been often following the activities of Shinako and Hinako and they're enjoying their friendship with them, which means that we could possibly have all of us joining an a few days" said Mutsumi.

"That sounds good! I knew that you have them being motivated that they're ready to join that group because I have a few friends of mine have been very ambitious of joining those groups" said Mia.

"Really?!" shouted Mutsumi.

"Yep! Two days ago, I met with Maiko Kurata, her cousin Iroha Hasekura and Yuriko Arimura where we have sharing about the plans for the braveheart groups that they're taking on and of course, they have different phases that they'll put through to ensure that they're following those as planned. They said that they have already invited the students that they're new to the varsity teams, which it had been done a few days ago including those from the fifth grade students in the elementary school level and now, they're focusing on their close friends, based on their links with one or more than members to take part of. They also mentioned that it will be depending on who they're linking with based on their closeness with either one another or someone from NijiGaku. You see, I haven't been part of that group yet, thus, it is out of the circle at that moment, though, I made a list on who they're joining to make sure that they'll have a chance to step up and shine" said Mia.

"Wow! I never knew that you have an idea that you're taking up to be part of that expansion! Who are they?" replied Mutsumi.

"They were Yuriko, Miyaka Okuhara, Wakiko Shirahama, Fumiko Haruno, Kikuko Hizuki, Itsumi Hamuro, Kotoe Isono, Maiko, Iroha, Rui Imamura, Mira Fujishiro from the Bravehearts of Minato and then, for the Bravehearts of Kōtō, they were Mitsuki Takamura, Chidori Hamasaki, Tomomi Iga and Hisaya Asato" said Mia.

"Those names are looked familiar to me, Mia! I met Fumiko, Yuriko, Miyaka and Wakiko before at the gathering when the Bravehearts of Minato and NijiGaku organized their big party at the Tiger's Den Residence for the celerbation of their one-month friendship. We were there to have some moments to thrill along and we have become friends as we bonded together through our smiles that we made us bloomed. They're definitely become special of trying to become dreamers just like us" said Mutsumi.

"You got that right, Mutsumi! They have been very known for following the Bravehearts of Minato to ensure that they wanted to be empowered through their smiles that will make them feel cherished and compassionated that they'll believe, resonate and smile. Of course, since they're friends of mine, they can do anything they want as long as I would love to get involved to negotiate with, although the problem is that me, Shioriko and Lanzhu have been running our own department club with the purpose of trying to increase our reputation to join the club while the actual group led by Ayumu Uehara have been active for months. So, we might not be able to give them a go signal until something happens for one side to another. However, I decided to give them the call of becoming associates to ensure that they'll have cooperate with these groups to make sure that it's settled for them to join in the future" said Mia.

"That's not a bad idea that you came up, Mia-san! I hope that they wanted to see you in person to make sure that it's all settled for your friends to join. Probably, I'm trying to do the same thing even we were just meeting with one another for the first time" said Mutsumi.

"Ah, yes, Mutsumi! This is the first time that I met you for a long time after you gave me the call today about what we do to start our partnership. Lucky for you, I'm the one who can count on since I'm free to do so!" said Mia.

"You got it, Mia-san! As a matter of fact, I'm contacting my friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine right now!" said Mutsumi.

"Sure, no problem! Just let me know once they're here!" said Mia.

"Of course, Mia-san! They have just played basketball in Aiko's house, which is my neighbor. They'll be here in a few moments!" said Mutsumi.

"That's terrific! I'lll look forward into meeting them!" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi.
 
Mutsumi had called her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine, who were staying at Aiko's home, as she had asked them to come to her home to discuss the partnership with Mia. A few minutes later, the members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine have arrived as they're wearing plain aquamarine-colored shirts while designed with four-pointed stars looked like a sash. They're composed of Asahi Sugawara, Juri Kichise, Megumi Yanagihara, Shima Tatsumi, Suzune Nagai and Emiko Shimotsuki.

"Hi, Mutsumi-san!" greeted the members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"Hi, girls!" replied Mutsumi.

Asahi would finally look at Mia, who had been preparing a set of mid-afternoon snacks and a pitcher of blue iced tea for the members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"So, I didn't know that you're a different person just like the dreamers that I saw on the other night!" said Asahi Sugawara.

"Yes, I am! I'm a school idol that I just flew from New York last month to study in NijiGaku. So, I came in to study for my third and final year in high school" said Mia.

"Okay, that's seemed to be interesting, girl!" said Asahi.

Mia would reply to Asahi sweetly by calling her name. "It's me, Mia Taylor. Just call me 'Mia' for short."

Asahi replies in return by greeting Mia. "Nice to meet you, Mia! I'm Asahi Sugawara and I'm the leader of the prestigious and generous Serenity Circle Aquamarine."

"Nice to meet you too, Asahi!" greeted Mia.

"Oh, you must be Mia, right?" surprisingly queried Juri Kichise.

"Yep! I came from New York City where I had been living in a colorful life before I moved to Tokyo to study in NijiGaku. Care for a smile if you can chase dreams like I used to?" answered Mia.

"Yeah!" said Juri before introducing herself to Mia. "The name is Juri Kichise."

The other members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine would follow suit by saying their names before formally respecting Mia.

"Megumi Yanagihara."

"Shima Tatsumi."

"Suzune Nagai."

"And Emiko Shimotsuki."

"Nice to meet you, girls!" said Mia.

"Nice to meet you too!" replied Juri, Megumi, Shima, Suzune and Emiko.

"How did you get there?" asked Megumi Yanagihara.

Mia would answer Megumi's question as her answer is based on her background story about how enrolled in NijiGaku. "You see, I supported their school idol club in NijiGaku and so, I decided to make a request to transfer school from my home in New York City to NijiGaku on Lanzhu's behalf. However, even though I didn't aware of the idea of school idols in the first place, I realized that I started to get used to it to make sure that I'll recognize them." This one had happened before making her appearance in the second season of Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and the second part of the storyline of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS.

"Oh, I see that point! I understand about that!" said Megumi.

"Yes, I'm sure that you're finally become familiar with me because I'm used to be a student from the music department in my former school before I made up my decision to enroll in NijiGaku. This is where I have a lot of experience of trying to make new friends and show that I'll be cherishing them through my rainbow heart" said Mia.

"Wow! That's so stupendous! That's nice of you!" said Juri.

"You're friendly just like my fellow classmates were!" added Megumi.

"You must be more focused on bringing music to the community like you have showed your smiles to gleam through!" said Shima Tatsumi.

"I believe that you'll get a lot of thrills that you'll put up in trying to become a school idol in the future!" said Suzune Nagai.

"That way, you don't want to be afraid of anyone on your side!" said Emiko Shimotsuki.

"Yep! That's me!" said Mia.

"What do we discussing, Mutsumi?" asked Asahi.

"Mia just came in to meet with me for the first time and we're trying to settle a partnership that will bloom up in preparing for our involvement to be part of the Bravehearts of Minato" said Mutsumi.

"That's right, Mutsumi!" replied Mia while giving the members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine a smile on her face. "I have been doing this to my friends from the ward of Kōtō and they cooperated with me greatly. As a matter of fact, I love playing baseball, which is my favorite sport when I was in the States. You care for my good friend of mine in Hiroaki Haruse, who played as a pitcher while being a second year high school student from the Shirohashi High School. My family is known for world-famous composers, and is so talented that many of my own compositions have been included in world rankings. I like to express myself being pessimistic and speaks in a maturely matter, but I used to communicate with my close friends if they're more motivated to follow my dreams. Now that I have been staying in NijiGaku for a month, I started to make new friends and I have been delighted that I have cherished them. Of course, since this is going to be first time that I'll be getting along with you, then, why not bringing some fun!"

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"I agree with that! Let's settle the meeting right away to get started!" said Mutsumi.

"You got it!" said Mia.

The meeting would begin where Mia, Mutsumi and the members of the Serenity Circle Aquamarine are sitting in the couch where they're placing the blueprints that Mutsumi made as well as the notes from the members of the Hydrangea Dream Section, which will be discussed later.

"So, I came in to see you working your project that you're building and I have been very thrilled that you're all interested to be part of the Bravehearts of Minato. Isn't that right?" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"I would love to be part of it because I love to communicate with friends that they have showed their pride and compassion through their rainbow hearts and they're very prospered enough that they'll shine through their dreams that they built" said Mutsumi.

"Okay, that looks good to me, Mutsumi! Anyway, this agreement will expect bigger plans to work through because ever since I started making friends in Tokyo, I love to hang out with them for something that fun really outsmarts the boring part, which I would love to make them cherished and thrilled like my fellow club members have used to. I also believe that being a member of NijiGaku will make me feel comfortable to communicate with anyone that will strengthen our friendship even I wasn't part of it yet, which I could negotiate it quickly as I can" said Mia.

"That's very nice that you want to dive deeper into, Mia-san! My fellow classmates have been doing the same thing about trying to ascend borders in making new friends to be part of while aiming to start connecting with them through partnerships that should be done. For us, we're very close to any of my classmates like Yumi and Miharu, but the only persons that we're close to from other sections are only just Shinako and her friends. That's why we believe that joining the Bravehearts of Minato would be a great way for us to embark new opportunities to bloom, gleam and shine" said Mutsumi.

"Yep! We committed ourselves in trying to bring the harmony and prosperity to our community as we're all here to gleam, fascinate and prosper through our rainbow hearts. We'll be assured that this will be our chance to make our dreams being fulfilled as long as we're very determined to shout out and smile for them" said Asahi.

"Thankfully, Yumi had given her friends a call a few days ago, which Mutsumi had managed to attend it as they're now allowed to start making new friends in trying to bring their harmonious thrills to our community to make sure that we'll be very gleamed enough to fascinate everyone" said Juri.

"And of course, the biggest goal is to keep our community blooming for us to create our own dreams that we made, so that we'll be cherishing everyone through our ideas that we put up as long as we're here to work together as one" said Megumi.

"With that, we're expressed of being part of the Bravehearts of Minato if Mutsumi will be invited by Shinako and Hinako to join, but of course, it would be fantastic if she'll start being an associate because we all know that she's close to Yumi and Miharu and she wanted to do the same thing to elevate her leadership to the next level" said Shima.

"Which means that we're very thrilled that this will be our time to step up and make our community being full of thrills that will be bloomed all the way" said Suzune.

"Hopefully, we're going to make our dreams come true if we'll be able to empower ourselves to cherish and thrill everyone while aiming to build big like we can do to make sure that we'll be stayed comfortable and generous through our rainbow hearts that we have throbbed" said Emiko.

"Wow! I'm stunned that you have a lot of ambitions coming to your mind, girls! I never expect that you want to be empowered in trying to become part of the Bravehearts of Minato because you have been growing your friendship with one another, especially that you gave Yumi and her friend some smiles that will make you feel comfortable as it would be! I would be surprised if you're going to adopt anything to make sure that you're going to have a lot of thrills that you'll be blooming for everyone in your side as long as you'll have to keep dreaming for your future to be brighter as it would be!" said Mia.

"Yes, we are, Mia-san!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"If we can make the difference to bring our dreams coming to our community, then, we'll have to make some brilliant plans that will serenade everyone" said Mutsumi.

"Just like the other members of the Bravehearts of Minato have used to!" said Asahi.

"Of course, you can! What we're going to do is that Mutsumi will ask Yumi to include her name to join the Bravehearts of Minato as a member of the Hydrangea Dream Section, which will be a plan that will bloom, gleam and shine everyone including her. Then, once it's been settled, then, we'll move on to the next set of plans that we could me" said Mia.

"Hold on a second, Mia. It would be better if Mutsumi will approach both Shinako and Yumi to discuss this matter. I mean, she had a good influence to both of them, but hasn't gone being influenced to anyone from NijiGaku at the moment" said Juri.

"Juri's right, Mia! Since you're not a full member of NijiGaku yet, why not Mutsumi will become a full member in the future as long as you came out there to negotiate with them" said Megumi.

"As a result, Mutsumi will have to be a member of the Hydrangea Dream Section, but won't have any privileges to join the Bravehearts of Minato yet" said Shima.

"Hmmm… that would be a bad idea to me because she only became friends with me for the first time and we haven't developed our friendship yet. So, it's just like an acquaintance level for the two of us, but if we grow together on our friendship through our activities, then, that would be the right time to make a request on Mutsumi's full membership" said Mia.

"I'm fine with that! What do you think?" said Juri.

"Sure, we'll go with that!" said Megumi.

"I'm okay with this" said Shima.

"That's a yes to me" said Suzune.

"We'll go with that!" said Emiko.

"That's good! What about you, Mutsumi and Asahi? Are you going to accept it?" asked Juri.

"Come on, that would be more of a seed of friendship to be created and then, once it will be growing better to its full force, then, you're now become a full member of the Bravehearts of Minato" said Mia.

"I'm sure that this one is a decision making on whether I'll be joining as a full member or associate, but since we're only just becoming friends, then, I'll be an associate to the Bravehearts of Minato at the moment" said Mutsumi.

"You don't want to become a full member quickly, Mutsumi?" asked Asahi.

"Well, if I became friends with Shinako and Hinako in the first place, I would automatically become a full-time member, but as you can see, me and my fellow classmates have our own influence on who to be close with and from the way I see it, Yumi is close to Ayumu, Miharu to Shioriko, who at the moment she's not a full member, but thankfully, she made Yu as her second friend, Shiki to Shizuku and Kiriko to Rina. The thing is that I would become friends with them, though, I'm equal to both Yumi and Shiki's influence while being close to Ayumu" answered Mutsumi.

"I see. I'll respect your decision on that" said Asahi.

"Then, it's a done deal, girls! The first plan has been settled!" said Mia.

"Hooray!" shouted Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"But we still have more plans to get it done and that would be a side activity that we can do for this month" said Mia.

"Oh, yes! I made up an idea on that, Mia-san!" said Mutsumi.

"Oh, really?! What do you plan?" queried Mia.

"I'm thinking about visiting around the National Stadium in Shinjuku once in a month because I wanted to take a glimpse on the history of Japanese football" said Mutsumi.

"That sounds a good idea to me, Mutsumi! But can you explain about it?" responded Mia.
 
Mutsumi would share about how she had been influenced in following football through her relatives from her maternal side, the Ōtsuka clan. "As you can see, my maternal side, the Ōtsuka clan, usually have good footballers in the local Tokyo Soccer League and they have been doing great that they have showed through their prowess and strength. My relative Nika Ōtsuka had played for the local Harumi Atelier and she had been on a stellar career that she had put up, which she had made nearly 100 appearances in 5 years and scored 13 goals. I came out to support her because she was very talented and showed her tremendous plays to surprise everyone like she's getting into a frenzy play to run through. I became motivated to watch her on a Sunday match, which I can feel her good that she'll do anything to improve her reputation all the way and I wish that she had deserved a semi-pro contract in the regional league soon. One time, she had invited me to go to the National Stadium and it was so cool that I have a chance to take an experience to enjoy watching live football matches. That's why I frequently go there for big matches for Samurai Blue and they have the best grassroots program that they have to offer. Now, my other relative Kenyu Ōtsuka had been training recently for the Prince Takamado U-18 Tokyo League Division 2 where he had been playing for Hanzōsen High School and he wanted to get a spot to play for Tokyo Verdy U-18 in the following season if he can make it. I believe that he'll be a great prospect with great potential coming to his way because he's gonna make a breakout season before trying to make it to college in two years."

"That's a tremendous story out there! I didn't know that you're into that sport because you have been following their careers that you have supported! I'm sure that you have a plan in trying to do the same path as them, but I'm not sure if you're going to make it at the moment" said Mia.

"Well, I have been attending tryouts in my community last month, but now, I'm currently aiming to take part of the Hanzōsen Middle School girls' football team, which means that if I'll be able to make the cut in the tryouts in a few days, I'm all in to represent for them" said Mutsumi.

"That's awesome to hear, Mutsumi! I'll be rooting for you to ensure that you're going to get that dream that you want!" said Mia.

"You got it, Mia-san!" said Mutsumi.

"So, are you going to accept the visit to the National Stadium?" asked Asahi.

"I'll be happy to approve this, but this requires parental consent, which you have to ask your parents to be there if they're interested to take a glimpse on the National Stadium" said Mia.

"Oh, okay, I understand that, but it will be great that we could have some of the friends of Mutsumi that they'll come through" said Asahi.

"Like Namiko Yamaji. She had been with us in our last activity when we visited the Aqua City Odaiba a few weeks ago" said Juri.

"We have a healthy relationship with her as she had been acting as a good friend of mine who can make good and beautiful advice to make us feel comfortable to believe, gleam and smile" said Megumi.

"And she'll be very delighted that she's going to accompany us to our trip in the National Stadium" said Shima.

"I'm going to take consideration on this, but let me know if she's interested to join with us because we need to schedule this by about next month to ensure that if we don't have anything busy on a weekend, then, we'll go for that" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"Anything else that you're going to plan on?" asked Mia.

"Honestly, when it comes to basketball, there's an upcoming invitational tournament to be held for the Minato-Odaiba League known as the Aomi Invitationals, which be commencing from June 12 to 13, thus, we wanted to have possible entries to compete in that group" said Mutsumi.

"Yeah, we believe that we have some of our good members that they're get into it, but the problem is that they're preferred to play football over basketball and we have lack of members that we put up" said Asahi.

"This happened back in last year's Aomi Invitationals where we only sent 8 players, led by Masakuni Kumatsu, in the first round against the Sakurada Comets, but we lost in a blowout by 23 points" said Juri. The final score between the Serenity Circle Aquamarine and the Sakurada Comets is 41-66.

"In the second quarter, we only scored 4 points, giving up 21 to their opponents where the boys were in big trouble, trying to bring their groove" said Megumi.

"However, we don't want to have this mistake again this time because we have some back-up coming from Masakuni's friends from the second year middle school level" said Shima.

"That's true. Our friend Shozo Nakamatsu had been relying on sporting activities that he had groomed through and since he's the son of the staffer Ryosuke Nakamatsu, he'll definitely deploy some help for our team" said Suzune.

"This will definitely gonna be thrilling that we'll have more chances of winning now that we have more members to join and as far as we concerned, we should start doing a workout schedule to get it done, so that we'll be ready to compete in the Aomi Invitationals" said Emiko.

"I like that idea too, girls! That would be something that your boys will expect to get even better as soon as they're coming out to groove. I even believe that you'll have some confidence to work it out to make sure that your group is good to go for the Aomi Invitationals, which I would love to expect bigger improvement on their performance when I'll take a glimpse on one of their matches" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"How about you girls? Are you all in for that?" asked Mia.

"They're pretty good at the moment where they finished in the second round with a close defeat at the hands of the Andromeda Squad Marea" said Mutsumi.

"Of course, we're much better than the boys would, but the big thing that we want to expect is that we're going to make us more formidable with the help of our schoolmates to get us back on track" said Asahi.

"We'll be expecting to follow the same routine as the boys to make sure that we're all good enough to bring the thrills to fascinate through because this is definitely our time to step up and bloom the way" said Juri.

"Hopefully, we'll expect to surprise everyone in Odaiba because we're here to dazzle through our stupendous auras to make us gleam and it will be fantastic that this will be our time to put up a good show to prove!" said Megumi.

"That's good to know, girls! I'll be very thrilled that you're going to have a lot of preparations that you'll need in order to make some noise for your group to bloom through in the tournament, but it would be even better that we should go for a special event known as Sports Day Getaway, which will be possible to have other groups to collaborate with us, especially that you have some good members that they can put up something to amaze Minato and Odaiba" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"We'll ask anyone from my class to set up on this if they're interested, which we might need some preparations to run around for the Aomi Invitationals, but this will definitely make us feel good that we'll have a sporting activity to organize. I can't wait to feel myself into the pitch again if I'll train with my fellow aspirants in the football team!" said Mutsumi.

"Yeah, you got it!" said Mia.

"On the other hand, most of the members of the Bravehearts of Minato have already started to work on the extended group system, which will be good enough to boost the reputation between them and the entire community in Minato and Odaiba to show that they're here to bloom, empower and thrill through their rainbow hearts. The plan for this is that we're expecting to start constructing on those once we finally get deeper into these groups in a few days to ensure that we'll have a lot of time to create, develop and apply to ensure that we'll start making our dreams that we'll be resonating with" said Mutsumi.

"Yes, indeed! In order to form the extended group for our group, we want to invite our friends and allies that they have been very close to us, especially those that they have been enjoying their friendship with her" said Asahi.

"This will be a great time for us that we're going to start building our own system to show that we're going to work together to get the dreams that we want as long as we're going to bring something that the people in our community wanted to glimpse with" said Juri.

"Of course, it will be a long process that we're going to accomplish for like two to three weeks because there are times that we have to talk to some of our friends to make sure that they're confirming their participation to be part of our organization, which will be a solid way for them to start dreaming with us like the way we have used to groom them" said Megumi.

"If this one will be complete very soon, we'll be expecting to start attracting attention to our community by collaborating with them or groom them to ensure that they'll be very delighted to give us the satisfaction that they need" said Shima.

"And of course, we'll be trying out best to keep our community blooming and resonating through wonderful activities that we will be entertaining, starting with the common activities that we used to day up to the biggest ones that will give us the thrills that we're going to shine them" said Suzune.

"But that's not all that we're going to make them happen because we will finally have chances to team up with our fellow friends from the Bravehearts of Minato through decision making and organizing activities that will bloom, gleam and shine our community as a whole. We have seen Shinako and her friends coming out to bloom in their way to believe, gleam and shine as always, but of course, we should have our chance to step up and resonate through our brilliant ideas that will enlighten and cherish everyone for sure!" said Emiko.

"Yes, it will, Emiko-san! We'll make sure that this will be our time to prosper and harmonize our community through our rainbow hearts and hopefully, we'll have everything to chase for and to groom for in order to keep our community being prospered with our dreams that we'll ever get!" said Mutsumi.

"Oh, that's a fabulous idea that you have planned for your circle of friends, Mutsumi! I'm sure that you'll have a lot of weeks to prepare because this will help your group getting more thrills to team up and enlighten through your smiles as long as you're about to make them feel bloomed" said Mia.

"Yes, indeed, Mia-san! We'll be expecting to complete this in about two weeks once Yumi will be giving me the signal to schedule on it, but this will be taking a long time to prepare, though, we'll be expecting to make progress to ensure that we're all good to go with our friends and allies agreeing to join our connection circle for sure!" said Mutsumi.

"That's very nice to hear, Mutsumi! I hope that you'll be able to accomplish it as long as you're going to have them on your side and to settle this as a complete connection circle that will change your lives. I hope that you're going to bring some thrills to bloom, gleam and resonate because it will be fantastic that you'll cherish them through your rainbow hearts and so, I want to see all of those when you're all done with the preparations as soon as you can!" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"Now that we have agreed on the plans that we're going to build, I believe that everything is all set to make them turn into a reality in the future" said Mutsumi.

"Yes, it will definitely gonna happen, Mutsumi! If we have to work on the same page just like my other friends that they have worked on, it will be harmonious that we're going to bloom, gleam and shine together to dream big for everyone that they'll expect in a marvelous way!" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine.

"This partnership will expect to bring high expectations for us to make our community being bloomed and prospered through our rainbow hearts that we throb out in a gleaming way that we'll shine as one!" said Mutsumi.

"We should be more prepared on the upcoming activities that we'll be organizing to ensure that we're going to gleam and harmonize our community for everyone to shout out and smile with us" said Asahi.

"It's definitely going to be more thrilling that we should be all in that we're going to bloom, gleam and shine with one another to ensure that we'll be bringing our dreams to the community and we'll be assured that they'll be more comfortable to believe in those and join the empowerment that we'll be creating for all" said Juri.

"Yep! If the other groups have already planned on blooming their community through their fantastic events, we'll do the same thing to ensure that we're going to make them more entertained to satisfy through their smiles even more!" said Megumi.

"As the future is about to shake things up for us to start dreaming, we should be more determined to start thinking about the better dream that we need, so that we'll be fascinating those like we have used to cherish with one another in our community, but this time, it will be more harmonizing, thanks to Mutsumi will be planning to join the Bravehearts of Minato soon" said Shima.

"You got that right! We'll expect bigger things that we'll about to imagine because we're all coming out to cherish and fascinate everyone like this is going to be our time to fly as one!" said Suzune.

"And at the end of the day, we're going to make our dreams come true that will make us feel fascinated that our community will be full of smiles and joys that will cherish them in a blooming way! We can do this, Mia!" said Emiko.

"Yeah, for sure! Now, let's show our rainbow hearts to bloom, gleam and smile and bring our friendship coming out to prosper and harmonies, everyone!" said Mia.

"Yeah!" said Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine as they're all delighted that they're finally creating their partnership with Mia in order to make Mutsumi more compassionated to be part of the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section. Mutsumi and Mia have finally known with one another for the first time as they have become friends to ensure that they're going to shine together to make their community in Minato and Odaiba more prospered and harmonized through their rainbow hearts. Mutsumi had been very excited that she's all in to be part of the Bravehearts of Minato by becoming a member of the Hydrangea Dream Section, which will be created by Yumi Ichida and Miharu Akiba, which means that she'll be very jubilant that she's about to gleam, cherish and thrill with her new friends to make sure that she'll be very satisfied to be part of that group and she'll do whatever it takes to keep dreaming for everyone that she had groomed with all along. It's so nice that Mutsumi had finally made her plan to be made for her future that will about to change in a few days because she'll be assured that she's about to step up and smile to convince everyone to shout out and shine through their rainbow hearts while being optimistic to cheer for them in a blooming way.

A Post-Chapter Postscript Message from Mia Taylor

Hi, everyone! This is Mia Taylor of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and it's an honor to thank everyone for reading this update where me and Mutsumi Hoshimiya meeting with one another for the first time. I'm very thrilled that you came here to bloom, gleam and shine with me after I have shared about the love, hate and cherishment of Kaname Ichimiya and Mutsumi Hoshiyama, both members of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Hydrangea Dream Section because for the first time ever, after her debut in the Halloween update, Mutsumi has finally been featured in an update for the first time as the main characters of an update in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts as she had been very ecstatic to fascinate and groom her friends to ensure that she's coming out to believe, resonate and smile through her rainbow heart. And to make it even better to celebrate someone's special to gleam, fascinate and smile, tonight (December 6) is my birthday and you guys have never given up through our compassion and thrill like yours truly as you have been generous to fascinate in a Tokimeki way to ensure that you'll make me blessed on that special day. I know that all of my fans have counted on me through your rainbow heart, especially that you gave me the thrills to not let me down at all! I would like to say 'Thank you' to everyone who have showed your generous smiles to gleam, fascinate and admire by greeting me a 'Happy Birthday' and you're all thrilled that you'll always be here to dazzle with me like I had used in the anime adaption of our school idol club more of a gratitude that you'll never miss! So, moving on for tonight's postscript message, I'll be sharing about Mutsumi and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine as they have been very cherished that they have enjoyed their friendship as friends and dreamers while dreaming themselves to bloom, gleam and shine their community through their rainbow hearts. Now, you have seen them in tonight's update where they have been showing their smiles to greet me before sharing their story about how they have gotten along with one another before they're sharing about their ambitions for their community to strive for their dreams to be fulfilled. Of course, I'll be sharing everything about them to ensure that you'll be thrilled to dive deeper into their ambitions, interests and thrills that they're shining through their marvelous auras that they have gleamed through! So, I'll be more grateful that you're going to like this one because you're going to witness everything in this postscript message to make sure that you'll be more comfortable to believe and shine while recognizing them with your rainbow heart for sure! Anyway, Mutsumi had been sweet and generous that created some fabulous dreams to resonate and she had been very active in the community with her fellow friends from the Hydrangea Dream Section to ensure that they're shining together with their rainbow hearts being bloomed. As I said before in my last postscript message, Mutsumi hadn't officially joined the Hydrangea Dream Section until a few days later when she had been invited by Shiki Katagami to join as an associate where she's only allowed to get along with them in any activity within that group. It means that she didn't become a full member of the Bravehearts Minato at that moment until her status had been upgraded into a full-time member when me, my fellow club members and the members of the Bravehearts of Minato have decided to make agreements to allow my close friends to be part of the group that have represented for Minato and Odaiba. At first, Mutsumi wasn't known that she would be invited by Yumi Ichida, but instead, it was Shiki Katagami who was planning to invite her, so that she'll be able to communicate with her new friends as long as she'll be satisfied to have a great friendship to be built with. For her, she had been very shy that she wasn't speaking up to her schoolmates that aren't in her section, but thankfully, Miharu Akiba helped her to cope the issue easily. Not only for that to make Mutsumi being satisfied to be part of the Hydrangea Dream Section, but Yumi had been counting on her through her dream plans that she made including a visit to the National Stadium in Shinjuku where they have been exploring the world of Japanese football. Of course, Mutsumi is a football athlete, trying to make her way to be part of the Hanzōsen Middle School girls' football team, which means that she could potentially make the cut to ensure that the Bravehearts of Minato will not only have basketball athletes, but those that they have been so passionate in following football. One thing that you'll find it coincidental is that Mutsumi had been ambitioned of becoming an organizer when taking up into the events management because she wanted to come up with her ideas to resonate, so that she'll be sharing those to her future colleagues that will make these events possible to shine through. It will be fantastic that she's going to take up her talents to that dream job because her fellow friends from the Hydrangea Dream Section have been very known for adopting great ideas in organizing future events possible. So, it will be amazing for Mutsumi to show her compassion and thrill in stepping up to share her wonderful ideas to her fellow bravehearts and she'll make sure that she'll be flanked by positive reactions that she'll be appreciated. Meanwhile, she had her own set of friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine, led by Asahi Sugawara, as they have enjoyed their friendship for more than five years, making their community in Odaiba being bloomed and harmonized like they're shouting out with their smiles that they can't miss. They have been very determined of keeping their dreams being harmonized because they're very ambitious of trying to build a perfect community that have been dreaming of while aiming to bloom their friends and allies through their own activities that they have groomed with. They would eventually form their special circle group known as the Luminous Aquamarine Star, which will be consisted of them as well as those that they have been very close to Mutsumi including her close friends that they have aimed to follow her dreams and empower through their smiles. It's definitely looked great to see Asahi and her fellow dreamers being able to cherish, gleam and smile for Mutsumi while representing the Serenity Circle Aquamarine because they have never back down on her easily to ensure that they're going to cherish with one another to meet their expectations from one to another. You'll also be surprised that they'll end up becoming more involved in collaborating with the other groups that have been associated to the Hydrangea Dream Section where they have grooming and entertaining everyone through their rainbow hearts to make sure that they're shining their community all day long. I'm very thrilled to see Mutsumi and her friends being able to show up and fascinate their community in Odaiba as they have enjoyed their friendship that they have bloomed through and they'll be assured that they're going to keep shining for everyone that will make them cherished and thrilled in a marvelous way that they'll shine through! My friendship with Mutsumi had been developing as you have seen in tonight's update and of course, we have so many plans that we'll be working on including some fantastic collaborative events that will happen in the future, which you'll about to watch out on those very soon! After all, Mutsumi had been counting on everyone that she had groomed because as a dreamer herself, she never misses the fun and excitement that made her community being harmonized through her brilliant ideas and when she'll eventually become a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, she's ready to bloom, gleam and shine like the rest have used to! I'm sure that you'll be optimistic to see her being a member of the Bravehearts of Minato in the future because she's all in to believe, gleam and smile to make sure that she'll be happy to cheer for you while never disappointing herself to stay compassionated and thrilled through the bottom of her rainbow heart! I hope that you enjoyed reading this update because it's so great for me that the author had made this possible, dedicating it to me as I have been very grateful to be featured in tonight's update, which means that you have been very thrilled that you came out there to celebrate this very special day! I'm very delighted that you came out to support on my school idol career starting with my first appearance in the storyline of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS alongside Lanzhu Zhong before joining together with Shioriko Mifune in the second season of our anime adaption where we have prospered and shined together as R3BIRTH, which you're so proud of us that you have put up when we're performing just for you! It's been a while that you have been cherished to see me shining through my voice and with your support, you have been very compassionated that you never back down on me in a Tokimeki way! So, thank you very much to everyone who have counted on me on my birthday as I'll continue to dazzle my performance through my prosperous smile, so that you'll always be here to shine with through our stars that we chase and keep your pride and compassion coming out to motivate you all along! I'll be more thrilled that you'll have some courage to keep counting on our school idol club and so, let the dream continue to keep blooming and cherishing our community to shine through our smiles and thrills as we'll continue to cheer for you from the bottom of our rainbow hearts! Until then, I'll see you next time when a future update will be featuring me and my fellow club members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and be responsible when guiding yourself to be shined, everyone!

Mutsumi had been very grateful that she had some fabulous and ambitious plans that she had in trying to become a full member of the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section while aiming to follow their dreams of blooming and shining Minato and Odaiba to ensure that she'll be making her way to shout out and gleam with them in a marvelous way! Of course, she and her friends from the Serenity Circle Aquamarine have started a wonderful partnership with Mia Taylor (CV. Shū Uchida) of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, thus, they'll be assured that they're going to bloom, gleam and shine their community in Minato and Odaiba to let everyone chasing their dreams and cheer them up through their smiles that they have bloomed in their way. Mutsumi had a step forward of trying to become part of the movement made by the bravehearts from the ward of Minato and the area of Odaiba because she's very determined that she'll do anything to keep cherishing everyone with their dreams that they made and she's going to surprise them with her comfortable thrills to count on just like her fellow friends from the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section have used to.

As usual, she's showing her cherishment to her fellow club members, encouraging them to gleam, fascinate and thrill through their smiles and she had been doing a terrific job in realizing everyone's dreams including herself to keep their community being bloomed and harmonized with their performances that they tuned up. I like Mia's personality because she came out to be quiet and pessimistic, but she had a true dreamer that cherished every friend she needed including Kasumi Nakasu (CV. Mayu Sagara), Rina Tennōji (CV. Chiemi Tanaka) and Lanzhu Zhong (CV. Akina Hōmoto) as she never back herself down to comfort them through her smile and she had been very motivated to represent for NijiGaku through her enthusiasm that she energized to shout out and smile.:wink: Hopefully, she'll keep it up on her school idol career like her fellow club members as she'll always be here to believe, gleam and shine through cherishing with her rainbow heart while stayed generous and compassionated that she's always be here to cheer for you and to give you a smile that you'll cherish! Happy birthday, Mia!:smile:

We're currently in the middle of Side Connect of the Stars Aligned sub-series as we have two more updates to go before moving on to Side Melody, which will be expected to start by around either December 15 (Friday) or 16 (Saturday), and I have already prepared something big in the next set of updates while the forthcoming update that will feature Nina Kurata, Rikka Tokunaga and Miyuri Saiga, who are all part of the Twilight Smile is still under the planning stage, but I'll try to catch it up if I can go with something different to write a story for them, which it will expect to be posted next week before returning to return to online class. So, I'll try to update you on this if I have been working out very well to keep this series alive in a gleaming way that you'll expect!:wink: On top of that, the Hydrangea Dream Section will be adding another member to join as this time, it will be coming from someone who had been influenced with Yumi and Setsuna Yūki (CV. Coco Hayashi) as she's none other than Kotone Karashima. I'll be talking more about her in the upcoming postscript message by Setsuna next week to know why she'll be added into the group as I wanted to make the Hydrangea Dream Section being complete with each member had resemblance with their counterparts from NijiGaku. Now, you're surprised that you'll about to get to know another member that is so sweet and generous to cheer for you like her fellow bravehearts have used to, which means that you're about to dive in for her in the following weeks to make sure that you'll be very happy to count on her through her rainbow heart!:wink: That would be all for some announcements around the worldbuilding of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts as we're almost there in reaching the end of 2023 and to move forward onto the year 2024, which I wanted to do something in my mind on what to work on to ensure that I don't want to get in trouble onto posting updates lately, but time will tell on what it's going to be like when I have the right time to announce on those one day!:smile: So, now, it will be fabulous that you're about to gleam, prosper and harmonize for another update as it will be a new braveheart group to make their first appearance coming from the city of Shizuoka! However, with a twist, we'll be taking you to the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka where you'll about to meet the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka), led by Masazumi Hamguri and Mahiru Aimoto. That's right, everyone!:grin: This is one of the plans that I wanted to add through for Stars Aligned sub-series as there will be a braveheart group that will be associated to Rina Tennōji, which means that you're very excited to see them for the first time where the colors of prosperity and encouragement will be coming out to resonate for them to shout out and dive through their rainbow hearts. I'm sure that this will be more thrilling to watch out in the future updates to come, but this is the right time to announce as it will be all about their future plans that they'll address in hoping to keep their community thrilling through their brilliant plans that they'll be coming up and you're in luck to see what they'll be in store for their future.:wink: I hope that you'll be prepared to see this new braveheart group that have been gleaming their way to make the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka being bloomed and harmonized just like the other braveheart groups in the majestic Shizuoka Prefecture have used to and so, get ready to shout out and dive with them to ensure that they'll be very happy to bloom and cheer for you with pride and compassion that they'll bring up in a cherished way!:smile: I'll see you on December 9 (Saturday) for the next update of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts!

A Special Message from Lanzhu Zhong

Hi, everyone! This is Lanzhu Zhong of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I'll be sharing about Miwako Yasuraoka, a member of the Bravehearts of Minato being the leader of the Roses and Sakaki, a special circle group that is composed of the close friends of mine and Emma Verde while representing for Hanzōsen. It's so nice that you came here all along to make sure that you won't miss this one after I have shared about Nichika Kaida, the older sister of Yurika Kaida and a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Jasmine Section of Hanzōsen, because this time, I'll be sharing about one of my friends of mine that have been interested in joining the Bravehearts of Minato when I was involved with our school idol club and of course, you're very excited to see something new because right after you have witnessed Tokyo Verdy returning to J1 for the first time in 15 years by surviving the playoff final against Shimizu S.Pulse in the 2023 Road to J1 Playoff Final at the Japan National Stadium, I'll be happy to share something special that you'll never forget, especially that this is also for the birthday of my fellow club member Mia Taylor, who is currently celebrating her birthday tonight (December 6). It's going to be great that you'll about to take a glimpse on Miwako because she's definitely one of the ambitious leaders that made her hometown more prospered as it would be and she'll be assured that she's going to bloom everyone with her smile that you'll never miss in a Tokimeki way! Not that you're going to get to know about her, but you'll about to know about her group that have been very interested in adapting empowerment to her community in Tatsumi, which means that you're about to get prepared to witness all of those to ensure that you'll recognize through your rainbow heart that will make them optimistic to shout out and smile for you! Hopefully, you'll be very excited to see this one before your very eyes because this is the one that you're going to make yourself comfortable to recognize them to ensure that you'll remember them in the next future updates to come! Anyway, Miwako had been very blessed of being a dreamer as she had been making innovating dreams in trying to drive those into her community that she had prospered. She had been very determined that she'll make her way to bloom through her smile and she had been focused in trying to prosper and harmonize her community through her brilliant ideas that she made. Of course, she had been friends to yours truly and Emma as we have meet with one another one time when she had showed her support on us to ensure that she'll be cherishing us like the way my friends of mine have used to shout out and smile. Of course, she had not been known me until Emma had convinced her to meet me for the first time in a summer camp that our school idol club had organized. At first, she was so shy that she wasn't sure if she has the right time to meet with me, but thankfully, Emma confided her to show some smile to ensure that she'll regain her confidence to meet with me, which it worked out with a relief. From that day on, Miwako began to change her life as she had finally joined the Bravehearts of Minato by forming a new special circle group that will be represented by those that they have been close to the two of us. She had first invited Akiyo Hazama and Io Kisaki as co-leaders before they made a big move to welcome their friends such as Saki Uramichi, Nanami Kintoki, Reika Fukuchi, Maria Asukata, Momoka Takiyama, Shiori Kumakiri and Ayumi Kodaira. They have initially planned on becoming an all-girl special circle group until a few hours later, Hirotaka Ushio had decided to declare his intention to join that group, thus, it had become a unified group composed of male and female members that they have found their thrills to get along with me and Emma. Miwako told me that she had wanted to have a balanced special circle group that will be represented by those that they have been associated to me and Emma while aiming to work on their chemistry to resonate strong. This leads to the creation of their ambitious plans such as bringing the biological facilities to take care of the flowers and plants, making beautiful cards designed with flowers and leaves and creating a non-profit sporting club known as the Tatsumi Viridians SC, which was collaborated by her good friend in Masayuki Honma, who had formerly played for the Hanzōsen High School boys' basketball team before playing for the local leagues for at least six years. They have also created a beautiful garden, which was located at the back of the Yasuraoka Residence, which has a lot of flowers being harvested, thanks to the use of organic materials while selling some healthy foods to the community. It's so nice that they have growing their community to cherish and thrill their friends and allies on their side to ensure that they'll keep them satisfied in a gleaming way. They have also become interested in helping their community to empower and shine by organizing some activities to uplift everyone's lives and of course, they have been helping them improving their subjects to receive high grades at the end of the term. It's so nice that they have been showing their pride and compassion to fascinate their community where they have been grateful to bloom them as long as they're here to believe, resonate and smile through their rainbow hearts. I'm very proud to see Miwako being a great and ambitious leader that she had put up for her community and she had also been involved in teaming up with her fellow bravehearts to make everyone more comfortable to shout out and shine to keep their community being bloomed, prospered and harmonized. She had shined her way to make everyone more cherished to believe, gleam and smile for them to be compassionated in a harmonious way and she'll be assured that she'll keep her promise that she'll keep cheering for them on her side, especially that she's ready to dream for you! I hope that you enjoyed reading this special postscript message because it makes me feel excited about sharing when it's my time to step up like the way it used to be and I'll be delighted that I'll get the first thrill to make yourself comfortable through your rainbow heart. You'll always be thrilled to come along with us at any time that you want, so that we'll be here to cheer for you to make yourself comfortable and delighted for sure! Until then, I'll see you next time for another side chapter that will feature me and my fellow club members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and make yourself indulged and determined with your smile and joy, everyone!

A Special Message from Kanata Konoe

Hi, everyone! This is Kanata Konoe of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I will be sharing about Tomoko Okayama, a very close friend of mine and a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Harmony and Serenity Section. I'm so excited that you're all here to see me sharing another postscript message because after I have shared about the connection circle of Kurumi Miyagawa, the cousin of Takane Miyagawa and the older sister of Fuyumi Miyagawa, representing the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section because this one will be so special that I'll be kicking off the month of December on a gleaming note as you'll get to know about Tomoko Okayama, who had been getting along with her fellow bravehearts from the Harmony and Serenity Section to gleam, resonate and shine through their rainbow hearts that they have throbbed. I haven't gotten deeper into the world of the Harmony and Serenity Section yet because we have mostly focused on the Hydrangea Dream Section for almost the entire year, but thankfully, you're all in luck because you'll take a glimpse on one of their members as Tomoko was usually a good friend of mine being a serene and expressive dreamer and she had been cherishing her friends to comfort them as long as she's shouting out and shine with her smiles that you'll never miss. You'll dive deeper into the ambitions and thrills of Tomoko while aiming to dream big in bringing the harmony and prosperity to her community in Minato and Odaiba, which means that you're about to get excited to know about her when I'm sharing those just for you! Also, this one will be dedicated to my fellow club member Mia Taylor as her birthday is tonight (December 6) and so, you'll be delighted to make her day more special that you'll never forget to make sure that she'll very happy to cherish you through her rainbow heart in a Tokimeki way! I hope that you'll like this because Kanata-chan will be ready to cheer for you when I'll be sharing this one! Anyway, Tomoko had been known as 'The Serene Dreamer' due to her developing her personality of being compassionate and serene by giving her friends some advice to thrill along while aiming to gleam her community through her brilliant ideas. Of course, she's a very close friend of mine where she had been very interested in teambuilding projects where she had helped them completing their works to keep their community blooming and thrilling. You'll also be surprised that she's very connected to Yahiro Momiki, another close friend of mine, because they have been very compassionate to follow my dreams while aiming to cherish, gleam and resonate through their rainbow hearts. Tomoko was the first of my close friends that have joined the Bravehearts of Minato as she had been impressed on their works and achievements that they have put up for their hometown being more bloomed and prospered and of course, she's interested of making new friends that will make her feel comfortable to meet and smile. I have invited her to join the Bravehearts of Minato because I wanted her to take a glimpse on making new friends to ensure that she'll have opportunities to team up with her fellow dreamers, which she managed to meet up with my other close friends that they have been very ambitious of building wonderful dreams to the community and they're very ecstatic that they're going to cheer everyone up to make them feel delighted and uplifted for sure! One thing that you'll find it coincidental is that Tomoko had been very interested in cooking as her parents used to be good cooks to serve some delicious dishes with love and it's so awesome that she had been working on her way to create some fabulous ones that will surprise her friends and allies. It's so nice that she had found her passion of becoming a future cook just like her parents as she had been able to treat her friends and allies some delicious dishes that they liked, which means that she had been very satisfied to see them being impressed on her skills that she put up. She had her own group known as the Marvelous Glow Society, which was led by Akiyo Yoshida, as she had been grooming them with her smiles and thrills to ensure that they'll be more comfortable to count on her in building their dreams to fulfill with. The Marvelous Glow Society had been very interested in helping the community to grow, empower and shine just like their partners have done, especially that they did a great job in making the right decisions to meet good results. When it comes to teaming up with the Marvelous Glow Society, she's always coming out to work with them for any activity that they would do and they have always been focused in trying to maintain their friendship that they built for. Of course, you'll see the fact that Akiyo and her fellow groupmates have never lost their compassion and thrill to shine along with Tomoko, thus, they have been very satisfied in teaming up with her to ensure that they'll be making their dreams come true like it's going to resonate bigger as usual. Another thing that you'll be surprised of is that they have made side projects in their community when it comes to re-designing and re-developing through their own ideas. This was because Tomoko had wanted to cherish and fascinate something new in making her community being prospered and shining as it would be and of course, being part of the Bravehearts of Minato would give her privileges that she can create by doing some activities to gleam, fascinate and thrill everyone through her rainbow heart that will make them feel comfortable to enjoy. That's why she and her fellow friends from the Marvelous Glow Society have showed their pride, compassion and thrill to entertain everyone by giving them the smiles that they'll cherished while making them satisfied to ensure that they'll be very ecstatic to be with them for any activity that is engaging to. It's so nice that Tomoko had been making everyone more compassionated to follow her dreams that she made because she had wanted them to be more jubilant to get the dreams that they want and to be assured that they're not backing her down at all. When she had joined the Bravehearts of Minato as part of the formation of a new special circle group, the Harmony and Serenity Section, she had started to become friendly to her fellow friends while keeping her smiles bloomed when teaming up with them to ensure that they'll bring the success to the group. On top of that, she'll be happy to call me up for some fantastic activities that will happen in the future because now that this group had been created for the friends and allies of Kanata-chan and Kasumi-chan while representing for Hanzōsen, she's very grateful to make some ideas to bloom, gleam and resonate, which Kanata-chan will be here to accept anything that will harmonize our community, but in a Tokimeki way that will make them even better! As a close friend of Kanata-chan, Tomoko had been committed to empower with her rainbow heart that she had throbbed to show that she's ready to comfort her friends and allies to make them feel prospered that they'll believe in her like the way her fellow bravehearts have used to. I'm sure that you'll be more prepared to see her stepping up on her feet because she'll do anything to shine for you with her marvelous smile that you'll not gonna miss as she'll comfort you through her thrills that you'll be enjoyed for sure! I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message because it's so nice that you have finally known about Tomoko, which means that you'll be happy to make her comforted and thrilled and it makes Kanata-chan feel thrilled to give you a smile, so that I'll be happy to cheer for you to make yourself comfortable just like Tomoko! I'm very thrilled that you have always counted on me and my fellow club members to make sure that you'll stay comfortable with us and of course, we'll always be here to cheer for you to make sure that you'll never let yourself down through your rainbow heart!

Hi, everyone!:smile: I apologize that I wasn't able to post this update two days ago on December 9 (Saturday) because at that time, my Premium subscription of Katfile had been expired on that day, which I would gone renewing it the day before on December 8 (Friday), but that day is a regular holiday in my country, thus, I decided to move this update to today (December 11), so that I'm fully prepared to post this one as early as I can. Now, there's an issue with my re-enrollment in online school for the second year of my second year because the system didn't give me the General Statement of Account (GSA), which is very important for me to pay this to ensure that I'll be coming back in a few days being fully re-enrolled, which is very frustrating that this issue is still ongoing over the last week.😥 What I also decided to do for the next updates is that I decided to move their schedules from December 13 and 15 to one day from those dates, which will now become December 14 and 16. This is to give me some time to prepare on doing those updates smoothly while adding some early preparations for the possible mini-update and special update that will be dedicated to Tomori Kusunoki, the former voice actress of Setsuna Yūki of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, who is now voiced by Coco Hayashi, on December 19 and 22. While at it, I'm also starting to brainstorm on what it would be like for the sixth Christmas omake that I'll be posting during Christmastime, which will be announced very soon.:wink: There's also a chance that I could finally rest on posting major updates after the upcoming update that will feature the Bravehearts of Saitama for about a week in order to focus on doing the seiyu updates for various animation releases including the favorite ones such as Love Live! School Idol Project series. That would be great if I'll be able to finish the final updates to cap off the year 2023 on a high note before moving onto the year 2024 with a more, complex schedule that I'm planning for the next set of updates for Stars Aligned sub-series, starting with Side Sunrise.:wink: That's all I have been planning at the moment, but this is subject to change if there's anything big around the following weeks that will consume my writing stuff, I could make an update on those at any time soon.:smile: Anyway, I hope that you're all excited to see something sparkling and resonating for today's update and so, I'll be sharing you on what this will be like right now!:smile:

It's finally time to introduce you to another braveheart group to make its first appearance as it's going to be the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) from the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka. This will be the first time that I'll be posting update that isn't related to the Bravehearts of Shizuoka, which you have seen them over the last three years including its recent update focused on one of its members in Yuika Ishigaki as the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) will finally be appearing with their colorful smiles that resonated them to believe, gleam and shine. This group was mentioned in Red Section-Chapter 273: "The Thrill Always Shine Bright for Yuina Ishigaki!" where they have been formed on the same day as the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) and the Bravehearts of Suruga due to its leader Masazumi Hamaguri have close ties with their counterparts Yasunori Aoki (Shizuoka) and Kunitaka Yamane (Suruga), thus, they have used to work together through empowering plans that will shine the city of Shizuoka alongside their brave and cherished bravehearts. In today's update, the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) will be sharing their plans that will about to gleam and resonate to cherish their hometown in the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka. There will be some surprises to be made because this update is part of Side Connect, which featured the bravehearts and dreamers that have been very close to Rina Tennōji (CV. Chiemi Tanaka) and so, I have been doing some ideas that will make it even bonding to see these ambitious dreamers to show their smiles with one another to ensure that they're very optimistic to stay compassionated and thrilled as one family of bravehearts! It's definitely going to be great that you're all here to bloom, gleam and shine with me because this update will about to get serenading and harmonizing to ensure that you'll never back them down that will make them feel cherished to dream for you!:wink: Now, get ready to bring your marvelous smiles to resonate and cherish with these bravehearts from the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka because here comes the 286th side chapter of the Red Section Series with the title, "Empowering the Pride of the Majestic Bravehearts from the Ward of Aoi, Shizuoka"!

SIDE STORY: "RED SECTION STORIES"
CHAPTER 286: "EMPOWERING THE PRIDE OF THE MAJESTIC BRAVEHEARTS FROM THE WARD OF AOI, SHIZUOKA"

Date: May 2, 2010 (Sunday)

This side chapter is focused on the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) as they're addressing their plans for their future that will bloom, prosper and resonate in the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka.


Mahiru Aimoto had prepared the dinner alongside her siblings and friends where she and her fellow bravehearts from the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) are about to get along with one another before sharing their foods and drinks. Before this happened, they have talked with one another about the expansion of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"What have you gotten into the conversation, sister?" asked Miho Aimoto, a third year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and the older sister of Mahiru Aimoto.

"It's about the expansion that Masazumi told a few days ago. He said that he had addressed the current state of our group where we have completed the formation of the extended groups although there are some new members that they didn't make those at the moment. So, right now, we'll be asking the new members on what they'll be planning later on, which it should be done within next week" said Mahiru Aimoto, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and the leading girl of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"That's interesting! I wonder who they will be" replied Miho.

"They're just the new members from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School basketball team, led by Tomari Kuinmoto and Masahiko Iida. They're very great and talented players with a lot of potential coming out to shine and they have been looked productive when it comes to their prowess and intensity through their plays. I'm looking forward into them because they're somewhat different from the way I have seen, compared to the other players that I have met" said Mahiru.

"Oh, okay. I'm not familiar with them at that time, but they should be looked great that they wanted to follow your dreams that they resonate because usually, these people have been showing their pride and compassion to put it up for our community to gleam along" said Miho.

"And they should be more influenced with your dream plans that you're going to make the ward of Aoi being prospered and harmonized as soon as you're going to work with them" said Kusuo Aimoto, a third year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and the oldest brother of Mahiru Aimoto.

"They'll definitely be fun to watch for them because they got some versatility that they unleashed through their auras and they'll be assured that they'll catch up onto you!" said Yotsuba Ninagawa, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and the leader of the Tranquill Current, a friend group composed of the friends of Mahiru Aimoto.

"You got that right, guys! By the way, Masazumi told me that the football club has decided to partner with us in welcoming new memebrs of the group" said Mahiru.

"Whoa! That was quite fast!" shouted Miho.

"I didn't know that this one would happen all of a sudden!" said Kusuo.

"That might be a good move to have more members to be part of the group!" said Yotsuba.

"Yep! He met with Seijirō Akizuki earlier this morning and they have agreed to work on building a football academy for the young guns to run the place for the U-15 and U-18 prefectural leagues" said Mahiru.

"Oh, that sounds good! I'm surprised that this one will give Kutsuya Tsunoki an improvement on bringing new members to join in the future years to come" said Takeru Inami, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Tranquill Current.

"I'm assured that they're going to make something more productive that they're going to build because from what I heard from a senpai named Riki Kumazawa, the Noirforet Miyamae FC had announced that they'll be opening their own training ground by summer, which means that they could potentially bring some better staff to find youngsters to be built with and despite a less-friendly budget, they could push through with that as soon as they have enough support from local sponsors" said Banri Sayama, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Tranquill Current.

"With that, this will change the landscape in our community in Miyamae in a few years, but let's hope that we would take an opportunity to groom them as soon as possible" said Motoko Sameda, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Tranquill Current.

"I hope that they would. I mean, this is a good plan that they have been planning, but it feels like the agreement that Masazumi and Seijirō will definitely create some space for new rivalries to happen if this one works very well. I mean, we have just started forming our partnership with the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) and so, we should be more in the pace to shine together as soon as we have our own ambitious plans to shine through" said Mahiru.

"Yeah!" said the siblings and friends of Mahiru.

"Speaking of which, sister, I believe that your two close friends have arrived at the living room!" said Miho.

"Ah, just in time! I'll leave my duty to you, Miho-san!" said Mahiru before leaving to meet her two close friends on her side.

"Got it!" said Miho as she takes a closer look at the pork cutlets that have been cooked while Mahiru heads to the entrance of her home where she saw Yu Kitano and Ryōko Terajima, who were removing their footwear as part of the house rules. Both Yu and Ryōko are both first year middle school students from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and future members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) when they'll be creating the Glasage Lightningrod, which will be served as a special circle group that is composed of the close friends of Mahiru and Misumi Morikubo.

"Hi, Ma-san!" greeted Yu.

"Hi, Mahi-chin!" added Ryōko.

"Hello, girls! It's so nice that you're finally here! My fellow groupmates are also there chilling some hobbies at the living room! We're about to have a meeting about the expansion of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) as well as how we're going to take action to welcome new members and partners that they'll be dreaming with us" said Mahiru.

"That sounds nice, Ma-san! I'm looking forward into it! I'm surprised that you're the one who have invited us to be part of that group and now, it's getting even better with something that will happen in a few days!" said Yu.

"It's going to be marvelous that this braveheart group will about to expand their borders to welcome new members that they're coming to count on! I can't wait to see what they'll be planning!" said Ryōko.

"You got it, girls! Come to our group!" said Mahiru.

"Okay!" replied Yu and Ryōko as they're accompanied by Mahiru to meet with the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). They wore a special T-shirt, which uses the two colors of green and periwinkle, which are the official colors of that group with green being the official color of Kutsuya Tsunoki and periwinkle being the official color for the group. They also engraved the words '沓谷津野木' in Japanese lettering on the sleeves to represent their school while the T-shirts being worn by Maiko Nishiguchi, Ayano Edamoto and Kiriko Hozumi have the words '伊呂波学院', which stands for Iroha Gakuen while the color is maple yellow.

Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka): Masazumi Hamaguri, Shio Nomura, Takumi Takane, Kazuhisa Kusumi, Maya Hatsuoka, Chisaki Okubo, Mahiru Aimoto, Chizu Kiyokawa, Sawako Kawabe, Ai Watada, Misumi Morikubo, Saeko Hayashida, Kanami Ōhashi, Hiroko Negishi, Kaho Nakano, Hinata Manabe, Eiji Furuhata, Tomoya Tenma, Maiko Nishiguchi, Ayano Edamoto and Kiriko Hozumi

"Everyone! This is Yu Kitano and Ryōko Terajima. They're now permanent members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) after they have agreed to collaborate with our future!" said Mahiru.

"Well, hello, Yu and Ryōko! It's been a great honor that you're now part of our family that will make the ward of Aoi more gleaming and shining through our ambitions that we'll take through the sky!" said Misumi Morikubo, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"We're proudly delighted to show your support on our dreams that we built to make sure that we'll turn them into a reality one day that you'll never forget!" said Chizu Kiyokawa, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"It's so fantastic that you finally came in to be part of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka), which means that you'll finally have a chance to meet new friends that they're ready to count on you and you're going to participate our future activities that will shine everyone in our hometown!" said Sawako Kawabe, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"So, feel free to ask anything if you have some questions because we're appreciated that you'll be enjoying your stay in our organization for sure!" said Ai Watada, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"Yeah!" said Yu and Ryōko.

"Since you two were very close to Mahiru like you have showed your smiles to count on her dream, we would be very grateful that you'll start making your own dreams to cherish with because in our braveheart group, we committed to gleam and shine through our dreams that we made to keep our community being prospered and harmonized as soon as you're here to cheer them up" said Eiji Furuhata, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"We're very happy that we have formed this group like three months ago to run our goals that made our community being thrilled with fabulous smiles and glamorous joys that you'll get through. I hope that you'll be counting on us because this is what we do in our group for us to shine in our way!" said Tomoya Tenma, a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"We agree with that, boys!" said Yu and Ryōko.

"This is going to be my first time to join a bigger group that has a lot of opportunities that will turn into a reality one day, but I have to say that this will definitely be more fun to cheer, indulge and enjoy!" said Yu.

"I'm totally happy to be a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) because they're definitely looked brave and committed to prosper through their rainbow hearts, which I'm glad that I have recognized them before! Hopefully, it will be great that you're going to make our dreams come true as long as we're here to help you out with your dreams to be materialized" said Ryōko.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"We're very happy that you're welcomed to our braveheart group, Yu and Ryōko! We have already started working on the extended groups for our fellow members and now, we have been considered working on the next phase in our group where we're planning to welcome new members and partners while aiming to prosper and harmonize through our own dream plans that we'll be making" said Masazumi Hamaguri, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and the leader of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"Since our founding last January 31 (Sunday), we have been very proud of what we have done in our hometown to show that we're going to cheer them up for them to be delighted and uplifted through their smiles" said Shio Nomura, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and the vice leader of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"Our representation is to bring the enlightenment and jubilation to our community to make sure that they're ready to step up and elevate their thrills to shine as one!" said Takumi Takane, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). He had a younger brother Masao Takane, who is a first year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and had a short hair as contrast to his long hair.

"We provided some awesome activities that we're engaging to make sure that everyone will about to take experience on those that they'll make themselves satisfied as long as they're smiling all the way" said Kazuhisa Kusumi, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"And we committed ourselves to groom our friends and allies that they have been counting on us to show that we're giving them something to enjoy when they're believing for us" said Maya Hatsuoka, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"So, hopefully, you'll have a lot of time to share your thrills with us when you'll be meeting our members whether they're here for the first time or being part of the group in its first incarnation, which you'll be very comfortable to cherish, gleam and shine with us through your rainbow hearts!" said Chisaki Okubo, a second year high school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki High School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"Yes, we will!" said Yu and Ryōko.

"Now, should we start the meeting, Masazumi-san?" asked Mahiru.

"Of course, Ma-san! Let's start the meeting right away!" said Masazumi.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) as they're going to start the meeting about their current state as well as what they'll be planning for their expansion.
 
Masazumi would start sharing about the current state of the braveheart groups in the entire Shizuoka Prefecture. "As expected, we have seen our neighbors showing their signs of adding new members to be part of the group and I have believed that they're now putting up special circle groups that will be presented by their members, depending on how they have been close to. Of course, in our group, we have the sub-groups that I made in order to get along with one another for various activities whether in our home or not. However, I find out that being a braveheart group can't get it done without adding new members that they're definitely ambitious to shout out and shine. So, I made the plan about making this group stronger and more formidable to grow more and the expansion will be expected to have new members and groups as soon as we have targeted your close friends that they're interested to bloom, gleam and shine with us."

"So, we have made a four-point plan for the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) as we want to (1) welcome new members that they're expressed to empower our community through their rainbow hearts that they throb through" said Shio.

"(2) energize ourselves to create special circle groups that will be reserved for those that they have been counting on us any longer than they should dream more" said Takumi.

"(3) improve the sub-groups by re-organizing themselves with new members that they have been part of where they're the ones who will be handling the agenda for their future activities" said Kazuhisa.

"And last but not the least, (4) experience new ways to thrill our community by convincing everyone in the ward of Aoi to create their own chapters to be attached in our organizational structure" said Maya.

"We're very expressed of trying to make our community even better through open arms that they're coming out to bloom, gleam and shine for us to make ourselves cherished and thrilled and that's why we're very excited that we're going to give everyone that they want to make sure that they'll be happy to participate in future activities that will be more entertaining and more organizing to a successful dream that we'll resonate" said Chisaki.

"Yep! It's definitely going to be fantastic that we're going to have a lot of dreams that we'll making up for our community to grow and it's going to benefit our friendship with our friends and allies who have showed their pride and compassion in believing in our dreams and on top of that, we're very excited that we're going to groom them to show that we'll be making them more comfortable to enjoy privileges in shining through our dreams and create bigger moments that they'll never miss in a single heartbeat!" said Masazumi.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"That was a great announcement that you have planned, guys! I'm so thrilled that we're about to welcome and groom new members that they're going to count on our dreams" said Mahiru.

"It would be stupendous that we'll be making them more comfortable to be part of our group as they have never back themselves down on us to ensure that they'll be ecstatic to bring their thrills coming out to life as it would be" said Chizu.

"They'll be assured that they're going to make their own moments to bloom, gleam and shine our community like we have used to in our previous activities, but this time, it would be even better to shine out strong" said Sawako.

"Yes, indeed, Sawako! The Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) have been very known for their marvelous dreams that ended up being bloomed and harmonized because we have been very thrilled to groom them through cherishment and compassion that will make them feel ecstatic to smile all the way. It feels great that we'll be having more dreams that we'll be creating with the addition of our new members from our main group" said Ai.

"I have to say that this will be a jubilant dream that we wanted to prosper through where we're all in to bloom, gleam and shine with them, so that they'll be delighted to feel the thrill through their smiles" said Misumi.

"They're going to do their best to keep their satisfaction with us more bloomed and prospered as long as they'll be coming out to shout out and shine on their feet for them to be compassionated" said Saeko Hayashida, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"I'll be grateful that this will be their time to motivate themselves because one of the biggest things about them is that they're building their own thrills to prosper our community and if they'll be applying to our community, that would be great for that they'll be recognized as bravehearts and dreamers for sure!" said Kanami Ōhashi, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"It's definitely going to be fantastic that these plans will about to change our lives, not only that we're coming out to bloom, gleam and shine with them to keep dreaming for all, but it will be harmonious that our friendship with them will get even stronger like the bonds will about to explode" said Hiroko Negishi, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"You said it! Just like how it was applied with the neighboring braveheart groups, we're very assured that this will be our time to cherish, gleam and shine for them to let them know that they're committed themselves to fascinate through their rainbow hearts that they have bloomed. We believe that these plans will about to get blooming for us to empower as long as we have to keep our dreams all the way" said Kaho Nakano, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"I'm assured that this will definitely gonna work out for weeks to make sure that we're shouting out through our generosity and compassion because one way or another, we came out strong to prove that we're the ones who will be committed to believe, resonate and smile to make our hometown proud!" said Hinata Manabe, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"With all due respect, we're going to do our best to harmonize and prosper those plans to cherish and fascinate not only our new members, but those that they have been empowering for us and those that they have expressed themselves in following our dreams" said Maiko Nishiguchi, a first year middle school student from the Iroha Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"We'll be assured that this will be our time to commit ourselves to prove that we're going to shine in our way and hopefully, we'll be able to accomplish our goals to keep our community being bloomed and cherished with more dreams going to resonate" said Ayano Edamoto, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Iroha Gakuen Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"I like the way that you have some fabulous plans that you'll be working on for our community to enrich and flourish because just like the other community groups around the city, they have showed their pride and compassion to bloom everyone for them to be comforted and delighted with their friendship going to gleam stronger than the usual way. For us, we have the capabilities of building better partnerships with our friends and allies and so, we should be in the pace to make our dreams come true!" said Kiriko Hozumi, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Iroha Gakuen Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"Exactly! This will be our time to make history to exceed expectations despite being one of the newly-formed groups being established this year, but the future is getting brighter for us to show that we'll be comforting them to make sure that they'll be ready to step up and shine for us to keep them satisfied like they're about to fly with us" said Eiji.

"We're very delighted we have made history to put our rainbow hearts to shine all along, but this will be fantastic that we're going to do this with the help of our new members and partners that they're solid to follow our dreams and by the way, we'll be assured that this will be our chance to break out our reputation of trying to become one of the most productive and busiest community groups in the city of Shizuoka while aiming to outsmart both Bravehearts of Shizuoka and the Bravehearts of Suruga" said Tomoya.

"Yeah, that's definitely what we're going to aim for because even we're very new to leadership and empowerment, we can do this by showing our rainbow hearts to cherish everyone like the way you have comforted us before!" said Yu.

"But this time, we're the ones who will about take a big step to bloom, gleam and shine for our dreams to be fulfilled and make us proud! That would be stupendous that we're going to have our team effort meter skyrocketing to the top!" said Ryōko.

"Yeah!" said Masazumi, Shio, Takumi, Kazuhisa, Maya and Chisaki.

"This four-point plan was made possible for us to bring open arms and fabulous dreams to everyone that they have wanted to bloom together and shine through their rainbow hearts and it will be fantastic that we'll be putting up our own show that everyone deserves to believe with!" said Masazumi.

"It's so nice that we're about to fascinate those to follow what the other braveheart groups have used to because this will strengthen our relationship with our community while committing ourselves to bloom, gleam and shine in a gleaming way" said Shio.

"This will benefit our reputation of being one of the most productive and busiest braveheart groups in the city of Shizuoka because not only that we're about to embark on new partnerships that we'll be putting up, but it will be fabulous that this will be our time to make us believe, resonate and smile like this is our time to shine for our hometown we were proud of" said Takumi.

"You said it! In the future, we'll be planning to extend this our neighboring braveheart groups who have committed to fly with us and follow our dreams while aiming to build new friendships with those that they have been part of to make sure that they'll be serenading themselves to thrill everyone more than just us to groom with" said Kazuhisa.

"It's going to be thrilling that we have been planning on this for the first time because not only that this will make our braveheart group going to gleam more with our dreams to be made, but this will be something that we will cherish them better as they're very hyped out in making their own dreams to resonate while aiming to satisfy their dreams that they'll grow for" said Maya.

"And it's going to better than this when they're joining with us to empower as one, thus, this is going to be harmonizing that we'll start dreaming all along to make sure that our hometown will always be embraced with open arms and fabulous dreams that they'll be shining for. Let's make those plans going to happen to make sure that we'll be running our hometown together as one!" said Chisaki.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"So, what would be the process of welcoming new members to be part of this group?" asked Yu.

"How it will be applied through different stages?" added Ryōko.

"That's a good question, girls! In the first plan, we have already started with the first phase, which is to welcome those that they have been associated to our recent affiliations such as the varsity basketball team and football team" said Masazumi.

"This is where we'll be inviting them to join directly to ensure that they'll be thrilled to shine and empower with us while aiming to dream big for our community" said Shio.

"And then, we have been thinking about what to do for the second phase where we're sending some invitations to our close friends that they have been very interested in joining us" said Takumi.

"As a result, those who have been very close to us while being motivated to follow our dreams will finally have privileges that they're going to create their own dreams for our community" said Kazuhisa.

"Yes, indeed! After that, we're planning to create partnerships with different community groups to allow them to invite members to be part of our movement as long as they're committed to bloom, gleam and shine with their dreams to be built" said Maya.

"Once it's completed, we'll have the perfect community group that has been offered and we'll be expecting great results once we have completed our obstacles" said Chisaki.

"Ah, that sounds nice! I'm liking those because this will definitely gonna welcome new members that they're willing to bloom, gleam and shine just like we used to!" said Yu.

"And they're very determined that they're going to keep their thrills resonating to shout out and shine with us because when they're here to represent for our group, they'll be coming out jubilant that they'll be embracing new partnership to be made while hoping to empower their own communities that will cherish for" said Ryōko.

"Yeah!" said Masazumi, Shio, Takumi, Kazuhisa, Maya and Chisaki.
 
"What's the current status of that plan?" asked Eiji.

"At the moment, the first phase had been about 66% with the fifth graders as well as dedicated dreamers have happily accepted to join" said Mahiru.

"Yes, that's true, Ma-san! We have already confirmed those every day to see who they're all in to be part of the group with the recent ones being the football club members, led by Seijirō Akizuki" said Chizu.

"They have been very grateful to join our group by making a formal agreement with Masazumi to make it official" said Sawako.

"We're very happy to be informed about this because as you all know, Shizuoka is the Football Kingdom of Japan and everyone can do to make their dreams come true to represent for this prefecture with a lot of good and competitive teams competing for the bragging rights" said Ai.

"And they'll be assured that they're going to have successful careers to their names as long as they're here to step up and shine to appreciate and cherish everyone" said Misumi.

"Oh, that's pretty cool! I'm glad that we finally have some athletes that are indeed ambitious of building their own careers to their names!" said Eiji.

"We could groom them that they're going to have their own representation like the way we have used to as they're very brave and motivated that they'll do anything to shine our community!" said Tomoya.

"Yeah!" said Mahiru, Chizu, Sawako, Ai and Misumi.

"How about the ones that are still in review or not formally joining?" asked Eiji.

"Well, there's a group of dreamers that they have been close to Asuka Ninomiya, led by Nanami Tokura, a third year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School" said Saeko.

"They have been applying for their membership to be part of our group yesterday, but at that time, we haven't sure if we're going to approve this" said
Kanami.

"Yep. We only planned on inviting those that they're ambitious and determined in empowering our community, which we're referred to our partners that they have used to collaborate with us for various activities" said Hiroko.

"However, we decided to take into consideration to review on their application to ensure that we'll be giving them some green light to join our group" said Kaho.

"Of course, Asuka Ninomiya is an idol coming from the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka, born and grew up in Kutsuya 5-chome, which is why we're very interested of allowing her friends in her community to be part of since she has closed ties with the 346 Production" said Hinata.

"That sounds interesting! I didn't know that they're coming out to be part of our group because from what I heard, this group is usually associated to Rina Tennōji of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and so, if we want to expand this group to those that they're influenced with the other idols outside of Rina's side, then, we should go for it!" said Eiji.

"I second on this, Eiji! We're very ambitious to have people who have followed Rina and NijiGaku to show some pride to make her proud, but why not we could give them some freedom to join our group as long as they're dreaming for our community to grow better" said Tomoya.

"That's correct, Tomoya-san! Rina was the one who have entrusted us when she came in to delight alongside her fellow club members during their spring break vacation and we have been very comfortable that we shouted out and shined for her like we wanted to be part of a thrill that we found ourselves frenzy. That's why we have decided to make this group more influenced to her as those they have been very passionate to dream and shine, they're the ones who could end up becoming dreamers in the future" said Chizu.

"So, in our opinion, we wanted to bring this expansion coming out to prosper by extending borders to those that they're not onto Rina's side such as those from THE IDOLM@STER and other multimedia franchise series, thus, we can give them the opportunity to be part of our group to make sure that they'll be very comfortable to show their thrills in empowering our community like we have used to shine them. It's definitely going to be great that we'll be accepting a group of dreamers that they have influenced with a different idol and so, we're hoping to make more members that they have been coming from another side to ensure that they'll be given their own thrills that they should enjoy!" said Mahiru.

"Yeah!" said Eiji and Tomoya.

"I agree with your statement, Ma-san! I was planning about increase the influence to the other sides that they're not onto Rina's or NijiGaku's to make it balance because from what I heard from my good friend of mine in Naoko Shimura, groups must make decisions to allow the influence of the idols being balance by allowing those that they're associated to any idol to join as long as they wanted to strive themselves for their dreams to be fulfilled. The thing is that those who have been very close to Asuka Ninomiya may need something to accept as long as they have agreed to collaborate with us because I have faith in them, but I can't reject the idea on bringing them just to make sure that we're only allowing people that they have been close to either us or Rina's, though, in the end, we decided to follow the idea of balancing this to make things fair for the passionate people to accept through" said Masazumi.

"That's true, Masazumi! I have seen this from other community groups that they have usually influenced with Asuka to allow other people that have been associated with anyone else because they wanted to have a meaningful and marvelous friendship to enjoy themselves not only to patronize them, but to create bonds of friendship to be resonated. For us, we can do this to make sure that we'll have a happy braveheart group that we can run through. Honestly, this will be great that we would want to empower the idea of giving everyone their freedom to join us and that's why we made bigger ideas to extend borders to those that they're not coming from our side, so that they'll be stepping up to contribute and empower through their smiles. Hopefully, by the end of the day, we're going to keep them cherished as long as it takes to make sure that we'll be giving them thrills that they want to make them delighted!" said Shio.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"On the next plan, in creating the special circle groups, we met with the other new members that they recently joined earlier hours at the dormitory in Kutsuya, we opened several special circle groups to those that they have found their closeness to two or more members, depending that they have been associated one that has the greatest gift to thrill with" said Takumi.

"That means, it's finally time to allow every friend or ally to join those through our data coming from our social media accounts" said Kazuhisa.

"Yep! We decided to check on who they are close to each member of our group and then, if we find someone to be friends with two or three, we'll be formally inviting them" said Maya.

"However, this will take a long time to complete those because we only focused on the first-level close friends where those who have been very close to us in the first place while aiming on building our partnership with us are automatically invited to be part of the group" said Chisaki.

"You got that right, guys! That's why I formally invited Yu and Ryōko to be part of the group as they have been very close to me while aiming to dream big like I am. Of course, we're planning to increase those once we're done with the first layer in a few days as the second layer will be coming from those that they have been very close to us, but not onto the sub-groups, which will be taking about later" said Mahiru.

"Yeah, we agree!" said Yu and Ryōko.

"In addition to this, I spoke to Shiki Kurino, who is a very good friend of mine and associated to Rina Tennōji, where we're going to adopt a special circle group that will be representing for me and Rina. Isn't that awesome?" said Mahiru. Shiki Kurino is a first year middle school student from the Kutsuya Tsunoki Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). She's also a close friend of Mahiru Aimoto while being closely associated to Rina Tennōji.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"That's a great news that there will be a new group to be formed by a group of passionate dreamers that have followed you and Rina!" said Yu.

"That's very awesome that you have a wonderful plan to bring closer to your friendship with Rina, which means that you're going to have a lot of opportunities to bloom, gleam and shine for them to ensure that they're very comfortable enough to dream with you!" said Ryōko.

"Yeah! I'm loving this one because usually, there are some groups that they have followers to worship one idol that have loved the most, but thanks to this, I think that we'll be lucky to have dreamers who are willing to contribute with us while keeping their dreams to thrill for you and Rina" said Eiji.

"I gotta say that this will be fantastic to have another influenced group to be created in order to give them their opportunities to bloom, gleam and shine for us like our close friends have used to!" said Tomoya.

"Well, that reminds me, I can poach someone who had been very close to Rina and make a similar group to show their representation with pride and generosity to be in store!" said Maiko as she's referring to her schoolmate Fumino Yukishiro, a first year middle school student from the Iroha Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). She's also a close friend of Maiko Nishiguchi while being closely associated to Rina Tennōji.

"That's not a bad idea, Maiko-san! I believe that this will be great to strengthen our influence with NijiGaku because we're always thrilled to count on their dreams that they have built for and that would be fantastic that we'll have new set of groups that will be created for our new members" said Ayano.

"You got it! It feels great that these special circle groups will about to let them fly when we'll be inviting our close friends that they're coming out to bloom through our thrills and hopefully, we'll be very happy to cherish and groom them to make sure that they'll be grateful to count on our dreams and dive through their smiles!" said Kiriko.

"Yeah, I agree with you, Kiriko-san!" said Mahiru before speaking about the benefits on the special circle groups for the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). "This plan will be looked stupendous that we're going to invite our close friends to our group before we'll be assigning them to any preferred special circle group to ensure that this will be their chance to bloom, gleam and shine with one another for their thrills to be prospered."

"They're very comfortable to make new friends by influencing them based on their closeness that we have and we'll be assured that this will satisfy them without losing their pride and compassion that they'll be dreaming with!" said Chizu.

"We're expecting to have this plan to be completed within two weeks once we have finally completed this one to ensure that we're going to give them their time to shine for their dreams to be resonated just like we have groomed them through our smiles" said Sawako.

"It's going to be more of a big step to make our friends and allies ready to shine through their smiles that they'll bring up because they'll be allowed to participate in our community that they'll be committed as long as they're contributing through their thrills" said Ai.

"We're very ambitious that we're going to have these groups coming out to life for them to start dreaming with their own dreams because it will be fascinating that we'll be ready to groom them as long as they're not going to let us down and keep believing in a heartbeat!" said Misumi.

"We believe that this will cherish our community to ensure that they'll be very comfortable to find happiness to groom with and hopefully, we'll be giving them some opportunities to bloom, resonate and harmonize in a dazzling way" said Saeko.

"With these marvelous groups, they'll be given some opportunities to empower through their auras to make sure that they'll be very comfortable to keep believing and shining without losing their smiles to stay comfortable as they are" said Kanami.

"It will be fantastic that this will change every dreamer's lives when they're finally become part of our community because when they're here to bloom, gleam and shine for us, they're very cherished that they're going to do this to keep us smiling and we'll be very grateful that we're cheering them up to show that they're still counting on us" said Hiroko.

"I'm always motivated to see our close friends showing their pride, compassion and thrill to gleam and fascinate with us in our previous activities that we organized and now, this may be their turn to put up their own show because when they're building their plans to resonate, they're about to groom them to make sure that it will be all in to let them fly with smiles and thrills galore" said Kaho.

"And so, we'll be expecting bigger things to come when these special circle groups will be completed as our Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) will about to get even bigger than you'll ever be thrilled of and hopefully, we'll have a lot of activities to shine our community for sure!" said Hinata.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).
 
"Next up, it will be the sub-groups that will be represented for our group. So, there are five sub-groups being created last week to allow them to bring influences with friends and allies to groom through" said Masazumi.

"They're the Tranquill Pulse (Mahiru, Misumi and Kanami), the Polaris Ash (Chizu, Kaho and Hinata), the Mirror Raylight (Sawako and Ai), the Rustling Ivy (Saeko and Hiroko) and the Maple Orange (Maiko, Ayano and Kiriko)" said Shio.

"Now, originally, it will only be composed of those that they have been mostly allied to our first members, depending on how they have influenced the most, but we decided that we'll be expanding those to other levels to ensure that they can recruit those new members as long as they have some ties to them" said Takumi.

"As a result, everyone will be allowed to assign their friends and allies to their own sub-groups as long as we they're more complimented enough to follow their dreams" said Kazuhisa.

"The first members will expect to have more friends that they're interested to gleam, fascinate and thrill, which means that we'll be thrilled to welcome them and start making their own influence to be with them in a dazzling way that they'll never forget!" said Maya.

"This one will be easily utilized once the first and second phase have been done quickly to make sure that we'll start making influences with one another and work on their future activities that they'll be taking up" said Chisaki.

"Wow! I like that idea, guys! This will be great that we're going to influence more members that they have recently joined to make sure that we'll be giving them something to shout out and smile to continue developing our friendship with them" said Eiji.

"This will definitely be thrilling that we're going to harmonize them with more connections to be made to ensure that we'll be cherishing them through our rainbow hearts that we put up as long as they're fully motivated to believe, resonate and smile like the way that they used to be!" said Tomoya.

"Hopefully, we'll be making expectations to see these sub-groups growing even better that they'll be shining through to ensure that they'll finally be allowed to make bigger thrills to cherish, gleam and shine our community when we'll be organizing future activities" said Yu.

"And it does get even better that we're going to prosper them to make sure that they're not going to back themselves down on us and keep us cherishing that will satisfy with one another for these sub-groups to be benefited with more dreams to create!" said Ryōko.

"Yeah!" said Masazumi, Shio, Takumi, Kazuhisa, Maya and Chisaki.

"The sub-groups that we have at the moment will be looked efficient to create more influence with our friends and allies, depending on who they'll be coming out to represent for and we'll be happy to hold them some future meetings to address those in order to start creating new dreams to deploy" said Masazumi.

"Yes, indeed! The two plans that we have discussed earlier will expect to be done within two weeks before we'll be focusing on re-organizing the sub-groups, so that we'll be allow them to start influencing with stronger bonds to utilize and it will be perfect that you're going to shine your way with your plans that you want to push through" said Shio.

"Exactly, you're right, guys! When I looked up into your plans for your sub-group, it looks promising that you're going to groom your fellow friends to shine through, which means that it will be amazing that you're going to make them feel prospered that you're going to shine them in your own way to energize them as long as everyone including you guys is in the same page" said Takumi.

"We'll make sure that we're going to have your plans to be settled and approved by us in order to start making tentative dates to those and then, when you're all set to prioritize on those, then, it's your time to create your magic that you'll be shining with" said Kazuhisa.

"In the future, we'll be expecting to add more sub-groups that are coming from the other organizations to ensure that they'll be having their own time to work on their own ambitions and dreams to resonate. That way, they'll be very grateful that they're about to bring some magic that they'll need to shine all along" said Maya.

"Hopefully, we'll be expecting some good results that we're going to see once everyone is all done with the two phases while assigning those to your own sub-groups to ensure that we'll be good enough to make the influence meter getting even better!" said Chisaki.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka).

"And last but not the least, having one braveheart group wasn't good enough to have one chapter that we produced, but not anymore because we're planning to extend our borders to the other schools to create their own chapters while representing our braveheart group. That way, we'll be very delighted that they're going to create their own dreams to fascinate and to allow themselves to attend in our activities through their representatives that they'll be bringing up" said Masazumi.

"Yes, that's going to be more promising that we'll be expecting to have new members to be part of our group that are coming from other schools that are existing. For example, Iroha Gakuen will be expecting to have new members that they're going to represent where they'll be fielding their own special circle groups and sub-groups that they have to ensure that they'll be bringing them their own thrills to enjoy while they'll be allowed to create their own plans that they're about to shine with as long as it should be in line on prospering and harmonizing our community" said Shio.

"As a result, we're expecting to have more than one chapters to be made once the agreements have been settled and approved by our board to make sure that we'll be giving them the power to take control of their own" said Takumi.

"Although this one will expect to be approved big time, we'll be asking them to send one representative to lead their respective chapters, so that they'll be allowed to get elected into the Board as representatives from these newly-created chapters" said Kazuhisa.

A Special Message from Karin Asaka

Hi, everyone! This is Karin Asaka of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I'm here to share about the friendship between Ruriko Hosoda, Miyuki Morikawa and Itsumi Hiyama, who are all members of the Bravehearts of Minato. I'm very compassionated that you came here to see me sharing another postscript message ever since that I have shared about the friendship between Emiko Kishida and Marika Fujimi, both members of the Bravehearts of Kōtō because this one will about to be blooming and dazzling than you'll love as I'll be sharing about a beautiful friendship between the three bravehearts that represented the Bravehearts of Minato in Ruriko Hosoda, Miyuki Morikawa and Itsumi Hiyama. They have a history of their friendship with one another ever since their younger days in elementary school, but has a world of thrills that they put up to show that they're visualizing their future that they'll expect in a Tokimeki way. Now, this is going to be a long story because not only that you're going to feature both Ruriko and Miyuki, but you'll about to explore something to get to know about the close friends of Ruriko and mine that have been connected with one another unlike the closest ones such as Moemi Tajima and Katsuko Morikawa, which means that you'll have to be prepared on some spoilers that will happen in the future updates of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts where the author has planned on writing a future update that will feature them in early 2024. I hope that you'll like this because you'll be more excited to see their secrets that they didn't reveal before and it would be great enough to cherish them through your rainbow heart to ensure that they'll be more delighted to bloom you in a dazzling way that you'll always expect! Now, it all started when Ruriko and Miyuki met with one another in a shopping street in Aomi where they're accompanied by their parents as they wanted to explore the clothing lines to make sure that they're planning to buys some elegant and beautiful clothes. Just then, they spotted Itsumi, who had a midnight blue-colored long hair and very known to be the daughter of a rich family in Kaigan. One thing that you'll find it very interesting is that Itsumi is also a very close friend of mine due to her representing for my fan club that is consisted of my supporters in Hanzōsen and of course, she's going to end up becoming a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Glarastral Azure Zone, a special circle group that will be composed of my close friends that they have been very supportive on my school idol career, especially that they have been very known for organizing night activities. If you're looking for a group that they have showed their illuminated eyes to shine all along, then, the Glarastral Azure Zone will be the special circle group that you'll meet. Anyway, when the three meet with one another, they have shared their moments about their passion in clothing while they have enjoyed themselves in buying some casual clothes, mostly the sexier ones. Then, they would eat some katsudon and an iced tea in a restaurant in DiverCity while relaxing themselves in the promenade park in Odaiba. They have been very delighted to communicate with their friends to ensure that they'll be friendlier than you'll believe with, which means that they have their own capabilities on building their own connection circles when they're now part of the Bravehearts of Minato. When they're not involved with their own activities from their main groups, they occasionally meet together during the weekends to share about their interests and events around their community. They even become involved in following my school idol career because they're definitely thrilled to see me and my fellow club members shining together to impress the entire community, which is why we have helped them to realize their dreams and become friends with one another. For Ruriko, she's so passionate that she had groomed both Miyuki and Itsumi to become dreamers just like her and yours truly because she had been very cherished to see them being comfortable to be with her and they'll be assured that their friendship will be developed more. Before Ruriko became one of the first members of the Bravehearts of Minato, she had invited them to a graduation trip in Kawasaki where they bloomed together to bring their influence to the city such as Kiriko Hirose, Yuka Imaizumi and Sumiko Tsuruya. Of course, the ward of Saiwai was also known the influence on my school idol career where I have my friends that they have followed my activities and showed their passionate smiles to motivate my greatly such as Kotoko Ishitobi and Juri Komiyama. It's so nice that they have found their thrills to bloom, gleam and shine with one another to ensure that they'll be very comfortable to cheer them up and to convince them to create their own dreams that they'll never miss in a Tokimeki way. Once the Bravehearts of Minato have been formed, Ruriko had continued to get along with Miyuki and Itsumi through side activities, but their best moment that they have is when they were indulging with one another at the gathering that was organized by the Bravehearts of Minato and our school idol club where they have continued to shine their friends and acquaintances to ensure that they'll be very comfortable to believe in their dreams and make them fulfilled by innovating those into a perfect dream. This one would also begin development in trying to extend their influence with their fellow close friends that they thrilled, leading to the welcoming of the new members to the Bravehearts of Minato including Kirika Yuzawa, Miharu Sugino, Fuka Katsumoto, Nonoka Kumigaya and Seria Asada for the Flower Monochrome while Shuka Hamamoto, Mitsuyo Umemiya and Fumika Nagasu for the Glarastral Azure Zone. Their friendship had been very resonating that they have ever made to show that they're blooming and gleaming their community through their marvelous smiles that will motivate everyone and they'll be assured that they're still fascinated to believe in their dreams and to shine through their rainbow hearts for them to stay comfortable and optimistic to cheer for you. You'll be very ecstatic to see them stepping up for the Bravehearts of Minato because they'll be shining their way to count on every dream including yours and of course, you'll keep them believing in their dreams to make sure that they're definitely motivated to dream and fly with you! I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message because you have been thrilled to know about the relationship between Emiko and Marika and so, you'll be very grateful to gleam, dazzle and prosper with them to ensure that they'll fascinate together to prosper their friendship and they'll always be compassionated to believe and shine while energizing everyone for sure!

A Special Message from Shioriko Mifune

Hi, everyone! This is Shioriko Mifune of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I'll be sharing about Mayako Yasukawa and Shizuka Shirosawa, both members of the Bravehearts of Kōtō and the close friends of my cousin Kaguya Sunakawa. It's so nice that you have finally come out to show your smiles to gleam, fascinate and resonate with me once again after I have shared about my close friends from Sekishigaoka, led by Maiko Suzumura, because you'll about to get to know about two of the close friends that they have been very close to my cousin Kaguya and being members of the Bravehearts of Kōtō, which will be composed of Mayako Yasukawa and Shizuka Shirosawa. For those who are familiar to them, they're the close friends of Kaguya that they have been very ambitioned of becoming bravehearts just like her and unlike the other close friends of Kaguya, they're very special that they have put up to make sure that they're blooming together for her to show that they're here to cheer for her. It's definitely great to see someone who had been very ambitious to empower through their rainbow hearts and so, you'll be more prepared on what their relationship with my cousin Kaguya would be like as well as how they'll be bloomed enough to make the ward of Kōtō being prospered and harmonized in a fascinating way! I hope that you'll like this one because you're about to witness everything to see what's in store on her, so that you'll be able to remember her name as you'll finally know about her through her rainbow hearts! Now, in one of my previous postscript messages, both Mayako and Shizuka have been very close to Kaguya and they have used to shout out and empower their community through their marvelous smiles that they have been cheering for them. They have also used to get along with one another through the activities being organized by Kaguya to ensure that they're cherishing their community with their smiles from the inside and it's so amazing that they're going to shine with one another to keep their community being prospered and harmonized like they have imagined. Of course, they're very interested in joining the Bravehearts of Kōtō is because they have found them more compassionated and thrilled to bloom their friends and allies through different activities that they put up, which is why they were formally invited by Kaguya to be part of it and they have happily accepted. Let's take a look at the personal background for both Mayako and Shizuka, starting off with Mayako as she's the youngest sister of Motoharu and Masaru Yasukawa and an ambitious student leader that aimed for a brighter community in Funahashi. For Mayako, she had entrusted her friends that she had groomed while she had been participating in youth seminars, so that she can adapt those ideas into her own platform. Kaguya had been impressed to see Mayako showing her way to build a better community that she would get and so, she had been very delighted to help her realizing her dreams to make them turn into a reality one day. It's so nice that Mayako had been groomed by Kaguya and they have agreed with one another in trying to create their future that they have been dreaming of. Meanwhile, Shizuka had been living in a dormitory in Tsukishima and she had used to wear dark blue-colored clothes only for casual activities and occasions around her community as she found it fit on her style being the 'lone wolf' until she was gifted by Kaguya when the latter had received her a colorful T-shirt that is more comfortable to wear. That's when Shizuka's personality from being 'herself to do alone' to being upright with her motivation coming out to favor in her greatly. Both Mayako and Shizuka have been so sweet that they have never back down on my cousin to ensure that they'll be very grateful to have a healthy relationship with her as close friends and so, they're very delighted that they're going to join the Braveeharts of Kōtō as part of their expansion to add new members that they're very close to their members. One moment that the three have changed their lives is when they have been staying in the promenade in Aomi with the other friends of Kaguya where they have attended the midsummer festival, which is their favorite special event that they have. This is more blooming for them that they have enjoyed those to ensure that they're going to cherish together to treasure their memories as it would be. When it comes to their own groups, Mayako had her own group of friends from the Gracious Thistle, led by Miyu Kinugawa where they have been very interested in helping their community through their smiles that will comfort their own friends and allies while Shizuka had been joined by her own friends from the Lyrical Polly Parade, which was under the leadership of Nina Tsukishima as they have showed their pride and compassion in building their own dreams for their future to be brighter as it would be. They have been flanked by their smiles that made them feel compassionated that they're going to count on their dreams to ensure that they'll be very optimistic to groom them through their smiles that they'll not miss and make them delighted that they'll never back them down. By the time when expansion of the Bravehearts of Kōtō had happened at that time, Mayako and Shizuka have made a promise to Kaguya about building a perfect dream for all, stating that they should start dreaming big to bloom, gleam and shine their community to ensure that they'll be making their dreams come true as long as they're going to keep them thrilling in a fantastic that they'll stay compassionated and uplifted through their rainbow hearts. This would lead to their projects being implemented to ensure that they're about to serenade their communities in Ariake and Tsukishima being bloomed with the dreams to be chased by anyone on their side. Eventually, they're now taking charge of the studygroup committee where they have groomed their fellow bravehearts to improve their skills by learning better and enhancing to master the topics that they need to get high scores like a miracle going to happen. It's so awesome to see Kaguya, Mayako and Shizuka working together to bring the harmony and prosperity to their community for their friends and allies including their fellow bravehearts to make sure that they'll always believe in them for them to be cherished and thrilled by indulging them in a moment that they're stepping up and smile. That's why you'll be more delighted to see them showing their rainbow hearts to throb for their dreams to be fulfilled and hopefully, they'll expect to dream again and to bloom again like it's their time to keep smiling and cherishing with one another to enjoy their friendship for sure! I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message as you have been bloomed enough to know about Mayako and Shizuka, so that you'll be able to cherish them like how I used to create a dream for you. Hopefully, you'll be counting on them to make sure that they'll be more comforted to show their rainbow hearts just for you! I'm very grateful and thrilled that you have showed your pride and compassion to shine and smile and I hope that you'll keep counting on us to ensure that we'll be here to cheer for you from the bottom of our rainbow hearts!

"Hooray!" said the close friends of Nina.

"That's a great wonderful news!" shouted Misuzu.

On top of that, Na-tan and Kuniko will help me out on this once Kuniko will be completing her circle of friends by around next week" said Nina.

"We have decided to encourage them to be part of our movement that will bloom together as dreamers that prospered and serenaded our community, which means that we're ready to start working together to get our dreams that we made" said Rikka.

"That's so cool!" replied Tōru.

"By the way, why your sister isn't coming to our party?" asked Nina.

"Oh, she said that she was with Rina-san and Na-tan, regarding their future plans that they'll shake things up in Minato and Odaiba. So, she asked me to represent on her behalf and I accepted to make sure that I'll be here to observe you and your friends out there" said Tōru.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"So, first and foremost, I have been thinking about what to do in our first activity because from the way I see it, they wanted to go for something interesting on technology as some of us are very influenced with inventions, but of course, we should do something to shine it up!" said Nina.

"Yep! That's why our first plan is to invite everyone to make some sketches for their own inventions that will fascinate our community and we'll be expecting to start working on those projects in a few months" said Rikka.

"This one would be a great opportunity for us to send the message to our community that we're going to give everyone some thrills that they'll get as long as they're all in to make some magic on their proposed inventions that they'll shine" said Miyuri.

"You said it! The plan for this is we're going to have this activity in one of the activities to be lined up for the upcoming general assembly on May 22 (Saturday) and 23 (Sunday) where everyone will be coming out to show their smiles to bloom, cherish and thrill with some fascinating moments coming to your way. Thus, we're expecting to have some of our friends to be here to make sure that we'll be shining together and make this event possible!" said Asumi.

"We have been thinking about what kind of inventions that we need, but it should be relied to sound and music because we wanted to gleam through our voice to perform very well and if we could turn up on those, we're going to make our community being louder to shout out and smile!" said Yoshito.

"So, hopefully, we'll be expecting to see everyone being prepared with some materials that you'll need for this event because this is your chance to create your own magic that you'll draw something magnificent!" said Riko.

"I like this one, girls! I'm so excited that we're going to have a good activity to create some magic for future inventions to be made! I'm feeling blessed that we could do this to ensure that we'll be fascinating and grooming those very soon!" said Misuzu.

"This is going to be OP to make some sketches for future invitations to made and I'll be assured that we should be more thrilled to have this one for possible solutions that we can get to surprise our community, but I have to say that it's not bad to have this one like it will be fascinating to watch!" said Ruka.

"You're right about that, Ruka-san! Everyone can create their own imagination to bloom, gleam and shine for our community to get impressed on our inventions and I have to say that this will be the right time for us to step up and bring something that we'll fascinate all the way!" said Yuno.

"And on top of that, the general assembly will be jam-packed with everyone coming out to show their smiles and enjoy the moments that we made, which means that we're going to have a lot of moments that we're about to witness before our very eyes" said Haruko.

"Rest assured, we should be smarter enough to start making some ideas on what to create for our inventions to be drawn and hopefully, we'll have a lot of things that we're going to track on in trying to make these sketches possible" said Chiyo.

"Yeah!" said Nina, Rikka, Miyuri, Asumi, Yoshito, Tōru and the members of the Starstruck Kobushi.

"That's a fabulous idea that you have, Nina and Riko! I'm sure that some of us will be good enough to create something innovating to shine our community, but I'll expect on some of the guys that they're about to bloom, gleam and shine for us because from the way we saw, we could make these inventions from time to time, so that we're going to send the message to our community that we'll be shining through" said Tōru.

"Yes, I agree with that, Tōru-san! This will be the first time to organize this activity unlike the other plans that are related to other technological-related activities, but more focused on inventions, which will be so nice that we're going to have a lot of time to think about what to make, so that we'll be ready to make them happen as soon as we're all in fascinate on those!" said Nina.

"True, Nina-san. Na-tan had a lot of plans that focused on music and empowerment that she'll send, which they're promising that I liked, but of course, we should spread the word on our own activities like this to make sure that they'll be very thrilled to witness all of those by impressing on our works that we'll make" said Rikka.

"And of course, once we have finished working on the sketches, we're planning to decide on who will be going first to be invited, but we should not worry about schedule conflicts because it's not going to be easy to create all of those until something is very important in our community" said Miyuri.

"Yeah, I believe so" said Nina.

"You're right about that" said Rikka.
 
"Speaking of which, Rina-chan told me that there's a big activity that had been planned by at the end of the month, which will be the birthday of Ai Miyashita on May 30 (Sunday). She said that it will be fantastic to send representatives from this special circle group, so that we'll be giving Ai something to make her thrilled" said Riko.

"Whoa! You don't say!" surprisingly shouted Nina.

"That's something new!" added Rikka.

"I'm pretty clear that this is going to be the first major activity that will be coming from another special person" said Miyuri.

"Yep! Rina-chan and Ai-chan have been very close with one another as they have lived in Odaiba, but they have been common as best friends in the alley where they have shared their moments of bringing some good vibes to everyone. Then, when they have joined the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, they continued to grow their friendship where they made some gags to entertain their fellow club members. It would be fantastic that we could do something that will cheer Ai up on her birthday" said Riko.

"True, Riko-san. We have enjoyed getting along with them one time during the special gathering last month where we have so much fun to show our smiles to make them cheered and we have learned from her words of wisdom to ensure that we should be compassionated to shine when doing to thrill for everyone" said Hatsue.

"That will make us pumped up to show that we're going to believe, cherish and thrill as we'll have to be more comfortable to bloom our community that will make them feel good to count on everyone including Ai and Rina!" said Fumie.

"You got it! We're very grateful that we have enjoyed getting along with them to ensure that they'll be giving us the smile that we need, which we're so satisfied that we get it done!" said Ami.

"Now, we're about to make us feel excited to participate at Ai's birthday party to take place at Monzen-Nakachō where we're going to make her feel comfortable to celebrate her special day" said Mizue.

"And of course, we need one of the inventions that will be used to give it to Ai as a special birthday gift. So, before we'll be planning to give something big to her, we're going to decide on which one will be useful to work on and this will take about three to four days to get it done" said Shuko.

"That's right! We should be more prepared on this if we can find something to cherish Ai for her special day that she'll never forget and let's hope that this will be successful for sure!" said Kotomi.

"Yes, I agree with that, girls! Aside from Ai's birthday party, there's also an event to be organized by Rina-chan, which will be the Prestigious Connect Party. This one will be open to everyone including all members of the Prestigious Lily Aonuma and those that are very close to her. It will be held on May 29 (Saturday), which will be the day before Ai's birthday, thus, we're expecting to share our sketches to everyone in the party to make sure that we'll be given some praises and first-time impressions from them. I'm sure that you have been very aware on this when I had announced this while attending the formation of the circle of friends of Rina Aonuma. So, we'll be expecting to go there as a group of friends that they have been very close to Rina-chan to make sure that we're going to showcase those in a dazzling way!" said Nina.

"Yes, indeed, Nina-san! The Prestigious Connect Party will be a perfect collaborative event that we're going to indulge by cherishing both Na-tan and Rina-chan through our smiles that we'll give and this will give us something to make us feel comfortable to shout out and smile for them!" said Rikka.

"We'll be assured that you're all excited for this wonderful event that you'll never forget to make both Na-tan and Rina-chan proud and so, we're going to do our best to bring us the thrills that we'll get when creating our own invitations to make sure that we'll be very comfortable to showcase those to everyone for sure!" said Miyuri.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"The second plan that we have is that we're going to have a one-day tour around Odaiba, which will be held on June 27 (Sunday)" said Nina.

"This will be one of the events that we could organize during the start of the summer season, but of course, due to a lot of events to be made from other groups, especially to our allies from the Twilight Smile, we decided to have a one-day tour to be held by the end of the month to encourage everyone in trying to make some experience in taking the serene community in Odaiba" said Riko.

"Yep! This was planned by Nina because she had wanted to do a one-day event to take place where everyone will be heading to different places around one area for just a day and this will be more of an experience day that we could get to make sure that we'll take a glimpse on what we have seen in our community. As far as concerned with the schedule, we decided to schedule on June 27 (Sunday) as the month of June will be full of excitement and optimistic that we could go through including the Aomi Invitationals, which will be held on June 12 (Saturday) and 13 (Sunday) while the mid-term examinations will take place from May 31 (Monday) to June 4 (Friday), thus, we could have a free day to pick up for the later weeks of June" said Rikka.

"So, we're expecting to put a schedule on any dates on the weekends, but what I suggested for this is that June 27 (Sunday) will be a good date that we could organize this one-day tour because by the time at the start of July, it will be the first term examination week from July 5 (Monday) to 9 (Friday) and this is where we're going to end up getting super busy in trying to finish our first term on a high note. After all, it's going to be fantastic that we're going to have this special activity to be held right before the end of the first term as long as we're all in the same page" said Miyuri.

"Yeah, my thoughts on that are looking like we're going to expect bigger things for us to have some visits to different places that we could enjoy for a day and then, we'll have some fun activities that we'll have to do in order to get some bigger experience to cherish through your rainbow heart" said Nina.

"Exactly, you're right, Nina-san! There are a lot of things that we're going to excite and thrill on that tour including a visit to the Symbol Promenade Park and Odaiba Rainbow Park where we'll have some fabulous side activities that we could get including some picnic hour that we'll be doing" said Riko.

"And then, we'll have to go to Venus Fort to take a deeper look on the shops that we can go through and buy some fascinating clothes" said Asumi.

"Of course, let's not forget that we're going to Tokyo Big Sight where we're going to take a glimpse on this majestic building where we'll be witnessing some attractions out there including some conventions that are about to be held very soon" said Yoshito.

"All of those will be scheduled as planned to make sure that we'll be ready to visit those places to ensure that this tour will be more exciting and thrilling that we're going to get!" said Hatsue.

"Yep! It's going to be fantastic that this one will be more fabulous to organize an event that will give us the free time to thrill along and hopefully, this will be successful just like the previous activities that we put up!" said Fumie.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"Now that's what I like to see a one-day tour going to happen in Odaiba!" said Misuzu.

"I can't wait that we're going to have a wonderful day to thrill around our community to ensure that we're going to have some fabulous moments that we'll be thrilling with!" said Ruka.

"That one will make me feel thrilled to glimpse on different places around Odaiba! I would want to see something new that will more fascinating as it would be!" said Yuno.

"Maybe, we could have a shopping spree on clothes and materials that we need to make sure that we're going to use those for the future activities as long as we have enough budget" said Haruko.

"Yeah, I agree with you! I think that we should think about what the budget would be looked like before we'll have this one to happen" said Chiyo.

"Oh, that would be very cool to talk about because we're planning to use about 10,000 yen for that day, but you could add some extras from your own pocket id you want to buy for yourself, so that you don't have to waste time on our group's budget" said Nina.

"You got that right, Nina-san! The Twilight Smile has a lot of money that we could invest for future activities, especially that some of our fellow groupmates will also have some limited budget that they need for their own events and so, we're going to allocate this for 10,000 yen to this group at the normal rate, but if things are looked promising that we paid it off for a month, then, we could add those to increase our budget" said Rikka.

"So, hopefully, we'll expect for some increase on our budget within next month, but we have to be wise on keeping those if we want to save them for future activities this coming summer" said Miyuri.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"I'm in favor of this, Nina-san! Money is the important thing for all of us in trying to save our lives that we could enjoy as long as we don't want to have a complicated situation that might hurt our reputation. It never happened around Tokyo Metropolis, but so far, this is going to be something that we have to keep an eye on" said Tōru.

"Yes, I agree with that, Tōru-san! We should have good enough budget that we could save on for next month to ensure that we're all set to use those for major activities" said Nina.

"And on top of that, we shouldn't disappoint Kuniko for this because it's important that we have to do some smart plans in order to keep our budget stable as long as we shouldn't go for the worst case scenarios" said Rikka.

"So, hopefully, we're going to make sure that we'll have enough money that we need in order to bring the harmony and serenity to our community that we'll be shining through!" said Miyuri.

"Yeah, I agree with that, girls!" said Tōru.
 
"And if I remember correctly, Rina-chan has enough budget that she had invested for her family for about 30,000 yen, which means that she could use some limited budget that we could share with if she had needed us for big activities" said Riko.

"Or we could make a projection chart on what do we use for the activities that we'll need in order to keep our money being saved as planned" said Hatsue.

"Yeah, we should do that, girls! Since I have been friends with Rina, I could ask for advice to her because she'll have a lot of things to help us keeping our budget at the normal cost, which will have to be careful on this" said Nina.

"Indeed. So, hopefully, we're going to have something to keep our money for future activities to make sure that we're going to use those if needed as long as we shouldn't waste our money for any longer" said Rikka.

"We'll be assured that this is going to be great that we'll have enough budget to take care of and hopefully, we'll have enough money that we could handle in the upcoming activities that we'll be planning to follow the financial regulations from the Bravehearts of Minato" said Miyuri.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"And last but not the least, the Starstruck Kobushi will expect to boost some talents that we need by founding an agency that will be made possible by my high school friends, led by Mayumi Tsukushi, and a few colleagues from the other side in our community" said Nina.

"Yeah, that's right! We have been so lucky that we wanted to have that idea, thanks to Satomi Okino, a very good friend of Nina coming from the Nihon University as we decided to take this project as a purpose of building new opportunities to step up and shine those that the stars aligned" said Rikka.

"And of course, it will be fabulous that we're going to groom them to make their dreams come true in a Tokimeki way!" said Miyuri.

"You said it! There will be two fields that they'll be offering, which will be in the field of music while the other will be the field of sports" said Hatsue.

"The field of music will be mostly focused on trying to entertain themselves through impressing the crowd with voice and melody" said Fumie.

"We have been very thrilled to see NijiGaku performing in front of us one time when they're stepping up and shine on their recent live performance last month and so, we'll be very determined that we're going to invite everyone on Nina's side to do the same thing as long as they have high hopes in trying to elevate themselves in the same way" said Ami.

"So, hopefully, we'll be greatly delighted that we'll be producing them to higher expectations for them to ensure that we'll be ready to make them more comfortable to shine through their rainbow hearts for sure!" said Mizue.

"You got it, Mizue-san! And for the field of sports, we have offered four sports so far, which are baseball, football, basketball and volleyball. The baseball team will be officially joining the local Tokyo Prefectural League after they have just filed their application to join the league for the 2010 season, which will be so nice that we're going to witness the Azaleas to shine through their skills that they have" said Shuko.

"This would also do the same thing for both football and basketball, which are mostly important to the youth as they have been open for new players to join in the youth academy. So, we'll be hoping to see them grooming their way to fascinate everyone as it would be" said Kotomi.

"And last but not the least, it will be the volleyball team, which will only be available to the girls' team at the moment. We're expecting to see some progress out there as they'll be planning to participate at the future tournaments around Odaiba this coming summer, which we'll be hoping to have an entry for them to compete for the Minato-Odaiba League" said Asumi.

"It's going to be so much fun that we're about to put up a good show that we'll be producing to ensure that we'll be very thrilled to see them shining through their smiles that will make them feel comfortable to believe, gleam and shine!" said Yoshito.

"Hopefully, you'll support them when they're competing for the spotlight that they'll get and make them proud because we'll be very comfortable to count on their dreams that they'll never be back down for sure!" said Riko.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"That's a great news for those who are trying to take their talents to the next level! I can't wait to see them showing their way to groove through their skills and to make sure that they'll be recognized through their names!" said Misuzu.

"They'll be very comfortable that they're going to shine themselves to make sure that they're definitely all in to gain their reputations as main players that will fulfill their dreams!" said Ruka.

"Yep! I'm all in for this, thanks to some help from the higher education level, which means that we're going to help growing their potential to unleash their inner thrills to surprise everyone" said Yuno.

"There will be a lot of thrills that we're going to count on to ensure that we'll be very comfortable to let them bloom, fascinate and smile and they'll be ready to make some noise that will hype our community" said Haruko.

"It's going to be better than this when they're coming out to find their thrills to shine for us and we'll be more assured that we'll be cheering for them that they'll make us comforted to shine in a fascinated way!" said Chiyo.

"Yeah!" said Nina, Rikka, Miyuri and the members of the Starstruck Kobushi.

"It's so nice that we're all prepared to make our new group coming out to bloom, gleam and shine to ensure that we'll be giving them the thrills that they'll never miss the biggest throbs that they'll gleam for!" said Riko.

"It's definitely gonna be amazing that this group will be more blooming than you'll expect now that we have some production of good dreamers that will change the future while aiming to empower through their rainbow hearts that they'll be shining all the way!" said Miyuri.

"And on top of that, we're going to have a lot of moments that we'll be deserving for to ensure that our experience as dreamers will never be forgotten like it's all for a perfect dream that we need!" said Rikka.

"You got it, Rikka-san! I'm sure that you have understand everything about this, which means that we're going to do anything big to keep us shining and make our community prouder than it would through our rainbow hearts that will amaze each and every one of you!" said Nina.

"Yeah!" said the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina.

"So, let's shout out and shine together as one family of bravehearts and dreamers, everyone! Just believe and make your dreams come true!" said Nina.

"Yeah!" said Rikka, Miyuri and the members of the Starstruck Kobushi and the close friends of Nina as they're all pumped up that they're ready to bring the fascination and cherishment to their community in Odaiba with the Starstruck Kobushi are all in to bloom, gleam and shine as one. Nina had been very ecstatic that she's feeling the enthusiasm for her friends on her side as she's going to bring the Starstruck Kobushi coming out to gleam, fascinate and thrill everyone through their ambitious plans that they'll be bringing up to shine. It's definitely going to be more exciting to see Nina and her friends being upbeat to work together as part of their connection within the Twilight Smile and they'll expect to put up their own show that they'll be dreaming of like the way that the Bravehearts of Minato have used to bloom, gleam and shine all the way. Hopefully, they'll be very comfortable to cheer them up to make sure that they'll be giving them the upmost thrills that they'll always believe and shine and to fulfill their dreams that they'll turn their community in Odaiba into a prosperous community that they'll be hoping in a Tokimeki way.

A Special Message from Ai Miyashita

Hi, everyone! This is Ai Miyashita of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I'll be sharing about Sawako Kawabe and Ai Watada, my good friends of mine from the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka, representing the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka). It's so nice that you have finally showed yourself to believe, gleam and shine once again after I have shared about my friendship with Ayame Murakami, one of the members of the Bravehearts of Minato and not to be related to the seiyu that voiced me, Natsumi Murakami because this time, I'll be sharing something very special as you'll get to know about both Sawako Kawabe and Ai Watada, who was named after me, representing for the ward of Aoi, Shizuoka. In the previous update, the author had finally introduced you to the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) as they have showed their determination and enthusiasm in trying to gleam, prosper and shine their community through their ambitious plans that they put up and they're very delighted that they're very grateful that they're all in to believe, resonate and smile like every other braveheart had used to. Since you have already become familiar about them, then, good for you because I'll be sharing some of their members that they have been very close to me with Sawako and Ai have been very ambitious of building their own community that they have prospered and of course, you'll be delighted to get to know about them through their personal background and how they have close with one another that led to their dreams being fulfilled as bravehearts. So, I hope that you'll like this one because you're about to show some energy and thrill to get to know about the ambitions of my cousin Ichika and I'll be assured that you're not going to miss the thrills all throughout for sure! To start things off, Sawako and Ai have been living next through the neighborhood as Sawako came from Oiwamoto while Ai lived in Maruyama and they never back themselves down that they have enjoyed their friendship with their smiles from the inside, thus, they have been very cherished to count on their dreams while making the difference to empower their hometown through their rainbow hearts. When I met them the first time during the spring break alongside my fellow club members from our school idol club, they're totally so sweet that they have showed their cherishment to comfort me and I have to say that they're indeed jubilant that they have believed in my dreams. One thing that you'll find it coincidental is that Sawako had been very upbeat to shine like Setsuna while Aiwa, which I called her to prevent confusion with my name, had been so generous that she had inspired me on my school idol career. As a result, they're very devoted that they're going to shout out and shine just like yours truly and Setsuna while aiming to make their dreams come true that created their future beautifully. They have used to play basketball with her fellow neighbors to show that they're balling out strong through their mastery from their mentor and high school athlete Ikue Asanuma. They're technically strong in playing defense and rebounding while they have loved to score inside shots to get through due to them being positioned at the three and five. Sawako became the center of attention when she had been helping her community as she and her friends from the Prudential Mane, led by Seiko Takigawa, have been very comfortable to help their friends out to believe and cheer through their smiles, asking them to start dreaming big just like how she had been part of the Kutsuya Tsunoki Elementary School girls' basketball team. Meanwhile, Aiwa loves to hear some music with her fellow bravehearts after discovering the fact that her friend Mahiru Aimoto had been jamming in during the birthday party of her father. Of course, Aiwa was interested in listening into Japanese pop songs performed by artists and sometimes, she can sing through her voice that she had made to appreciate everyone. Coincidentally, she was in charge of the music and entertainment committee for the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka) because she had been so passionate that she'll convince her fellow bravehearts to sing and shine to make everyone more delighted to bloom their hometown. Now, one of the big moments about them is that they have found an ambitious plan of building a cultural project with their friends not only from the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka), but to those that they have been passionate to lead for change as they're very determined to believe, gleam and smile with one another to deliver the message to the community that they're here to cherish them through music and love. That's why they have been very thrilled that they're going to do anything to keep everyone smiling for their dreams to be fulfilled one day and they'll be assured that they're going to keep believing for everyone in their community. When they have joined the Bravehearts of Aoi (Shizuoka), they have been very jubilant that they have started to build towards true friendship with one another in fulfilling their dreams that they want and so, they decided to start shining to lead the city into greater expectations and share their common interests with their fellow friends including those from the Bravehearts of Shizuoka and the Bravehearts of Suruga. When they told me about what their plan is, I was surprised that they wanted to make their community being prospered with people showing their satisfaction to dream big and believe in a comfortable way. That's why I loved to encourage them to do their part to make their community growing with smiles from the inside as long as they'll keep their community prouder than they would be. Finally, they have been assured that they're expecting to fascinate everyone by forming their own circles of friends to make sure that they'll be working together to keep their community being prospered and harmonized and they have also made formal agreements with their fellow dreamers in their community such as the Mirror Raylight, under the leadership of Maki Okamura and Wakako Imai. It's so nice that the power of love and encouragement made Sawako and Aiwa being comfortable to shine their communities to show that they're very optimistic to cheer them up and enlighten everyone through their smiles that will keep them blooming all the way and turn their dreams into a reality. At the end of the day, Sawako and Ai will never lose their pride and compassion for their community that they have believed because they'll be very happy to count on every dream that they witnessed and that way, they'll always be there to shout out and smile in a sparkling way that you'll always expect! I hope that you have enjoyed reading this as you have finally known about her ambitious that she put up for her hometown to make sure that you're going to make her feel compassionated to gleam and shine her friends and allies on her side like the way me and my fellow club members have used to resonate in harmony. It's so fantastic that you have counted on me when I have represented for NijiGaku and I'm very happy that you're going to keep supporting me and my fellow club members on our dreams to ensure that we'll make them come true one day like it's about to resonate just for you! So, always remember to excite and thrill for everyone through your smiles, so that you'll cherish them from the bottom of your hearts! Anyway, I'll see you next time when me and my fellow club members from the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club will be featured in a future update and keep thrilling with joys and smiles to shine, everyone!
- Ai Miyashita (CV. Natsumi Murakami)

I have already gotten some plans into this, which I'll be posting a postscript message about Kotone Karashima, one of the new members of the Bravehearts of Minato, representing the Hydrangea Dream Section, which of course, to be shared by Setsuna herself, later in a few moments.:wink: I'm sure that I'll be very busy with my personal life for a sporadic time to finish the year 2023 on a harmonious note, but you'll be prepared on what I'll be working on because Side Melody will about to make something more intriguing than you'll never miss out in a diving way to believe, gleam and smile!:smile: That's why the next update will finally witness the return of Natsumi Takada of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi as she'll be joined by her fellow close friends on her side as she'll be holding a meeting to discuss about their plans that will shake things up in Toyohashi with the expansion of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi have been announced.

She had an ambition of building a harmonious community to shine for her friends and allies while making a difference of cherishing her fellow bravehearts to meet expectations that she deserved more. Kotone had also found her resemblance of mine because she's very upbeat and motivated that she always hyped out to shout out and smile and she had been very active in the community by helping her friends to stay compassionated and thrilled for them to be satisfied greatly. One thing that you'll find it coincidental is that she's the neighbor of one of my cousins in Sayumi Nakagawa because they have been connected with one another while being optimistic to shout out and dive through their smiles. Of course, they have also become friends with Momiji Iwakuma, the leader of the Glaring Daffodil, the group that have been composed of the friends of Kotone, which means that they have used to collaborate with one another for fantastic activities to cater and entertain everyone in a Tokimeki way. I'm sure that you'll be hyped out to count on her because when it comes to her enthusiasm with her friends, she'll never miss the thrills that she'll always do to comfort everyone with her smiles all the way. Now, the reason why I became very close to Kotone is because she had a perfect dream that she had planned out and that is to encourage everyone to lead the future through different fields that they have taken while aiming to achieve greatness to shine for all. It's almost like my ambition that I had as the Student Council President of the Nijigasaki Academy High School where I wanted to reach the expectations through the stars that aligned themselves in order to empower and dive with smiles and joys. That's why she had been so excited that she had planned on following me and so, we have enjoyed our friendship that we made to ensure that she'll never back down on me and stayed jubilant while believing in my dreams. In my opinion, she's definitely my second close friend next to fellow braveheart Momo Kashiwada, Aya Fujioka and Mihoshi Kumata because she had always found her opportunity to bloom, gleam and shine her community to make sure that she'll be counting every dream that will turn into a reality by grooming and fascinating them in an expected way. She had also become one of the deputy presidents of the recruitment committee where she had helped her fellow bravehearts to recruit and groom her fellow members to ensure that they'll be part of the movement that will cherish, gleam and smile through their rainbow hearts. That's what I like to see for her to show that she's always counting on everyone to keep her community being bloomed and prospered in a heartbeat that she'll be grateful to appreciate with. When the Bravehearts of Minato have announced that they're open to expand by welcoming new members, Shinako Takanashi, the cousin of Ayumu Uehara, had invited her to join as one of the members of the Hydrangea Dream Section and she had accepted quickly, stating that she's ready to make new friends that will develop strong and create new thrills to bloom through. I'm very surprised that she had been motivated to be part of the Bravehearts of Minato as not only that she had been helping her friends to go forth on their dreams that they made, but she's actually impressing the activities made by the Bravehearts of Minato when she had participated in the activities that are organized by Shinako herself. She had believed that she can make some ideas for future activities where she had a great teamwork to work along with her fellow friends on her side and so, she's very happy that she'll be coming out to cheer for everyone like I have used to in my live performance. What's more passionate is that she, Yumi, Miharu, Shinako and Hinako Ōsaka, the cousin of Shizuku Ōsaka, are very delighted to work together through community projects, especially that they have been empowering with their fellow bravehearts and of course, our school idol club, which you're very thrilled to see us cheering for them to ensure that we'll be working with one another to keep our community shining as it would be! Kotone told me one time that if she can make the different lead a group like the Hydrangea Dream Section, she'll be very cherished to shine for them to let them know that she's going to do anything to keep them thrilling while enjoying greater possibilities to shout out and smile in a Tokimeki way that she'll always gleam through. I know that she had been very delighted to motivate her friends and allies on her side to keep them believing in her dreams because she's definitely kind and sweet to cheer them up when they're feeling disappointed and she'll do anything to surprise them through her motivation that will win the trust for everyone in the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section. As a member of the Bravehearts of Minato and the Hydrangea Dream Section, she had been very upbeat and motivated that she'll do anything to show her marvelous smiles to resonate her community and she had found her happiness to get along with her friends to ensure that they'll be shining together to make their dreams come true, especially for her dreams after all. You'll be very excited to shout out and gleam with her one day that she'll fly with you and of course, she'll be assured that she'll give you the thrills that you'll expect bigger than just a throb to believe! I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message because you have finally become thrilled to cherish Kotone, especially that you have made her proud to make sure that she's going to show her smile to bloom and prosper you through her rainbow heart while representing for her hometown to dive and shine with her fellow bravehearts together! I'm very delighted that you have always counted on me through my dreams that I prosper with, which means that you're going to show your pride and compassion to stay compassionated and thrilled to make sure that we'll be here cheer for you like you're about to gleam, resonate and smile! Until then, I'll see you next time on a future update that will feature me and the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and keep us shine and smile, everyone!

Kanata is a third year high school student from the Nijigasaki Academy High School, belonging to the life design course, which her major is mainly cooking, and a member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She always looks sleepy and unmotivated because she can't able to study hard, which causes her to leave the group at first, but she comes back when she was able to repair her exam scores and study well. In the anime, she is very sleepy and she had a part-time job to help her household. Although she was confused that the club had been abandoned, she couldn't contribute to the reformation of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, but she did rejoin after the reformation of NijiGaku and continued to be a school idol. She was stiff and could hardly be defeated by long-seat forward bending. Kanata had a younger sister Haruka (CV. Kaede Hondo), a first year high school student from the Shinonome Institute. I was fascinated to see Kanata so cute, compared to fellow NijiGaku members Ayumu Uehara (CV. Aguri Ōnishi), Shizuku Ōsaka (CV. Kaori Maeda) and Emma Verde (CV. Maria Sashide), due to her being complex and kind to her fellow NijiGaku members and she expresses gratitude to them with her smile.
