"Saki-chan…"
On stage, Tomori looked at the scene on the screen, her expression somewhat complicated.
Had she remembered the words she had once overheard from Sakiko that day?
Sakiko's position was completely opposite to Taki's, so she naturally couldn't see Anon and Tomori behind her.
But Tomori's unconscious murmur was enough to make the girl's body tremble slightly.
The emotional defenses she once thought were as unbreakable as the Maginot Line—just like with Anon—had now begun to crack.
"So this is how you're editing it, huh?"
"A god-tier edit."
"Why is it still Anon again?"
The Anon–Tomori shippers were absolutely ecstatic!
[Thank you for the special invitation~]
Sakiko's part naturally corresponded to episode 7—the scene of Tomori singing Haruhikage on stage.
[To witness your love~]
[I keep reminding myself~]
[Don't run away~]
In the anime, Sakiko watched Tomori singing Haruhikage on stage—and completely broke down.
In fact, the real Sakiko was also starting to crack a bit.
Does this ever end?
Today, Tomori hadn't performed Haruhikage out of consideration for Sakiko's feelings, but in the end, it seemed she still couldn't escape it.
[What was once the best has now become the past~]
The scene cut to Mutsumi, her face expressionless as she watched the performance on stage.
[I try to sincerely bless you~]
Mutsumi… you're way too calm!
[Please forgive my lack of grace and composure~]
In the anime, Sakiko had completely broken down at this point, turning around and running away. Meanwhile, Soyo on stage looked at this scene with some confusion.
[I'll excuse myself for a moment~]
[And take my leave~]
In the anime, Sakiko ran out of RiNG while crying, looking utterly disheveled.
"Genius!"
"This fits the original perfectly—MyGO!!!!! really picked up something crazy!"
"Wuwuwu, my Sakiko… I'm really going to cry to death!"
"You'd better actually be crying—wipe that smile off your face first."
[This isn't some idol drama~]
This part was temporarily performed with full feeling by Soyo.
[So why am I acting~]
[So deeply immersed~]
Why did they have to perform Haruhikage?!
In the anime, Soyo shouted out that line—and it actually blended perfectly with the song.
[This unbearable plot~]
The scene cut, switching to the moment where Soyo confronted Sakiko at Haneoka. But paired with the lyrics now, it felt incredibly subtle and strange.
There's another expert at work here?
Some people couldn't suppress the corners of their mouths from rising.
Soyo: ?
Wait, why is she involved too?!
[Thank you for the special invitation~]
[To witness the love you wanted~]
[Even a "guest" is just another kind of~]
[Fate~]
[The me who left you—now, at this point~]
The big screen suddenly cut back to episode 1—the scene of Sakiko leaving CRYCHIC.
[What right do I still have to care~]
Sakiko, who had been holding herself together until now, finally broke down at this line. Tears filled her eyes.
That's right—she had been the one who chose to leave back then. What right did she still have now to involve herself in Tomori's life?
Tomori… her Tomori…
At this moment, Sakiko suddenly understood Taki a little.
She also felt a bit fortunate that she was facing away from Tomori. If she had to meet that girl's eyes right now, she couldn't even imagine what kind of expression she would make.
[After all, the one who ends up with her is you~]
At this moment, the scene cut to Anon again. Her movements on stage, along with that sudden smile and perfectly timed lighting at the end, were unbearably adorable.
[And I am just a guest~]
Some fans even clutched their chests, nearly fainting from excitement, feeling like their lives were complete!
But Anon herself was starting to sweat again.
One Taki was already enough—stop piling more aggro onto her!
[I pour out all my memories~]
[To celebrate your wedding~]
[Yet I still don't have the courage~]
[To bless you~]
[Thank you for giving me this final clarity~]
At this moment, the camera returned to Sakiko. Kneeling on the ground, her eyes tinged red, she looked heartbreakingly beautiful.
[Returning myself… back to myself~]
The scene slowly panned upward, revealing an image of sumimi—mainly Uika.
Seeing that image, the fans instantly understood.
"'Returning myself to myself'—that means making me forget everything!"
"Uika, my Uika!"
"Ms. Mana, please stay strong!"
Listening to the chatter among the fans below the stage, Sakiko herself didn't react much—but someone else couldn't hold it together.
That person was, of course, the "donut lady" wearing a mask who had come to watch MyGO!!!!!'s performance.
Looking at the image on the big screen, her expression didn't look very good.
So this is your reason for trying to NTR my partner?
And you even say you want me to forget everything?!
If you really want to forget everything, go find Soyo…Okay, maybe not that one.
Then go find Mutsumi!
Why are you going after her Uika?!
That naturally evil blue-haired brat—she, the donut lady, would definitely deal with her personally…
Thinking this indignantly, she subconsciously turned to look at her partner, as if seeking comfort.
However, Uika—who had come with her to watch the MyGO!!!!! performance—was staring unblinkingly at Sakiko at center stage, as if all her attention had been completely drawn to that girl, not noticing her partner's emotional turmoil at all.
Donut lady: ?
"Uika!"
It looked like Uika would have to spend quite some effort later to calm her partner down.
[At least I can still become that~]
[The one who witnesses your love~]
[Guest~]
[The one who met you is truly fortunate~]
[I only hope she can love you even more than I did~]
[Love you~]
As Sakiko's singing slowly came to an end, the fans below the stage were left in a daze.
They hadn't expected MyGO!!!!! to pull off something like this at the end—the surprises at this music festival had been overwhelming.
"Anon defeated both Taki and Sakiko—Anon is invincible!"
In the end, the Anon–Tomori shippers were the first to recover.
"Wuwuwu, my Taki~"
The Tomori–Taki shippers were completely crushed—utter defeat.
"The Tomori–Sakiko ship will never give up!"
Some were still struggling.
"What exactly has Chihaya Anon done wrong?!"
On stage, Anon herself felt extremely wronged—what did any of this have to do with her?!
It was all the editing's fault—it was that evil Kamijou brat trying to sabotage her!
As the fans below continued their noisy chatter, the girls on stage had also adjusted their emotions.
"Well then, everyone,"
At this moment, the host spoke up at just the right time.
"Today's performance ends here. Please exit the venue in an orderly manner."
Hearing this, the fans below couldn't help but feel a bit dazed.
It's over just like that?
In fact, it was their first time feeling so reluctant for a live show to end.
After all, this was like anime characters themselves crossing into reality—who had ever seen something like this?
So, as the already exhausted band girls were about to leave the stage, many fans didn't leave. Instead, they crowded forward.
P.S.: In short, based on some readers' suggestions, the last segment has been adjusted—"Unrequited Love" won't be sung for now. The author originally planned to include it here mainly to reconcile Soyo and Mutsumi. While it could be saved until after the anime airs, at that point it would just be pure fan content and wouldn't contribute to the real storyline. The author thinks it's better if fan edits can tie into the actual narrative. However, readers seem to care more about the "Unrequited Love" fan edit itself, so it will be moved to a later part.
