Someday, I want to let them hear our song, not just from practice...

Like a concert? I want to do it!

Then we'll need a costume too!

Is there a song that we can use to sing and dance along to?

Why don't we make them ourselves?

If everyone sings along, I'm sure it'll be fun!

Yeah!

And so, let's decide what should we do to make the concert a reality!

Are we really going to do this? Even creating the music for the concert?

Well, sure, yesterday we got a little bit carried away, but...

But, I don't want to appear in front of people...

Me too... I don't have any complaints about working backstage though...

Mana will do anything!

What an amazing drop in motivation, in just one night...

They got swept along with the atmosphere last night,

but after they slept and woke up, they start to think it was troublesome.

I've already expected this.

First, we'll start with the looks.

The story that's just beginning (Story)

It sparkles with light

The show must go on

Let's raise the curtain

In this day and age

A single flower in this world is starting to sprout (Flower)

On sunny days, even on rainy days

It will bloom with pride

I'm dreaming of that day to come

Everyone surely has their own future they wish for

One day, 3, 2, 1, we'll spread our wings! (Take off!)

Welcome to the wonderful world of Luminous (Luminous)

Music filled with light, let it reverb to the sky!

Welcome to the wonderful world of Luminous (Luminous)

Let's sing the melody that will put a shine on everything!

The show must go on

Let's raise the curtain

(Episode 4) (Let's sing a song)

(Lyrics, composing)

(Costume design and production)

(Dance choreography, acrobats)

Alright then, now, choose what you want to be in charge of!

Hold on!

Mana, choose one!

I want to do everything!

Nice fighting spirit.

Milasha, Ginny, Maria, what do you want to do?

Maria is in deep sleep!

We'll put her on hold!

How about you guys?

All of them look fun...

If it's Miss Aira's order, this Milasha would give my all in whatever it may be!

I think Milasha is good for a lyricist, right?

Why is that?

Just look at your motivation when applying to the band squad.

I learned from a certain person's song,

that music has the power to save, and cheer people up.

That person's sublime voice wrapped this lamb who's lost her way on a dark path...

Stop it!!

Milasha got some talent with words, huh.

Geez, it's hard being such a talented person...

Next is the one in charge of costume...

You girls, I bet you just don't want to stand out, right?

Mana is fine with standing out!

Then the fastest way is to decide by having a button sewing competition!

So Ginny is in charge of dance too?

Yeah! I'm actually in an internship period right now.

They told me to observe a lot of things while training to use the Strikers.

For Maria, I was already assigned as the one in charge of dance when I woke up...

Mana is amazing, huh.

But it seems like she can only fly straight.

What?

It's pretty much impossible to control her flight.

In the first place, it's said that Kiwis are not suitable for becoming familiar...

I'm sure it has something to do with the person's personality too, but...

I'm afraid something's wrong with her and Kiwi's mutual understanding.

Maria is really knowledgeable!

That's... Not true...

Is that a flight diary?

Yeah... But, I was thinking about choreography though.

I'm just thinking about it...

I'm not going to be the one who does it though.

Even if Maria thinks about flight and dance, I can't become an example for it...

Mana! Come here for a bit!

You can do it! Becoming an example!

They were originally uniforms for the girls in the village,

but they promoted while evacuation, so they won't use them anymore.

Do you think it can become a material for our costume?

Yeah!

Excuse me...

Is it really okay for me to be in charge of the costume?

I couldn't even sew the button correctly...

It's fine, it's fine.

At the very least you managed to put the thread through the needle.

Inori couldn't even do it after all, because she was too nervous...

Alright then, I'll leave it to you.

I'll be relying on you!

Are those ideas for the costume?

I want to put ribbons around here...

Then cut the blouse's sleeves short...

Then we'll adjust the skirt's length...

And I want to make this shoulder part puffy!

I see, puff sleeves are cute after all, right?

What's wrong?

How about this frilly thing on the collar?

Maybe it's a jabot?

How about this kind of skirt?

Maybe it's ruffle?

And here, it's inverted pleats...

Amazing! You're really knowledgeable about western clothes, Sylvie!

You too Joe, you really like western clothes, huh.

When I see beautiful western clothes, I always ended up staring at them...

Even though I'll never be able to wear them...

I often fix my little brother's clothes, so I like sewing.

They get loose and torn really easily, so it was pretty hard...

For me, they never let me hold a needle before...

That's why in that button sewing competition,

By God, how my hand is filled with scars.

Whoa, that's freaking bad!

By God?

Freaking?

Let's just continue with our work!

Yeah!

A phrase to connect this...

I can't think of anything!

Hey, Milasha, why don't we exchange our roles as the lyricist and composer?

Inori, you learned the piano, right?

Well, yeah...

It's a huge responsibility to write the lyric for a song that everyone will sing, you know?

I wonder what I should write...

How is it going? Is it done?

Ginny...

Can't you guess by looking at our faces?

So this is a music sheet!

Ginny, is this your first time looking at a music sheet?

Yeah, my first time!

I see. Let's see, this one is...

Moffy is singing my song!

This kid can instantly remember everything.

Now that you mention it, it was playing around with sound too last night, huh.

Rather than playing around, it's more like it's being played around...

In any case, that's a pretty strange tone.

How about this?

Yeah, that's really great!

Wait a bit! I'll write it right now!

Milasha, what kind of lyrics are you writing right now?

Well... I haven't even decided what to write yet...

Milasha, who do you want to listen to this song?

Well, of course, it's Miss Aira, or maybe Miss Aira, and then Miss Aira?

And if she listens to it, what kind of feelings do you want her to experience?

I see... I think I got it!

Yeah!

This is the place where we sang last time.

I heard it's originally made for May Festival.

But the Neuroi attacked, and the festival was canceled.

The people of the village seemed pretty bummed out about it too.

So, let's cheer them up with our song!

You're doing great!

It's amazing how you're able to borrow this kind of recording equipment...

Let's record the musical performance beforehand!

Like that!

That's amazing!

It's beautiful!

I'd like to wear it!

A shipment of real coffee beans from Liberion just came.

So let's finish our last push with this!

Thanks for the coffee!

Tomorrow's concert, I'm sure it'll become a big development for those girls.

But, it's an undeniable fact that we're not perfect yet too.

A song and dance that's made from being carried away,

I wonder how will the guests receive it.

I don't think that's a problem at all, right?

Really?

This coffee commander brewed for me is really delicious after all.

No matter who drinks it, who brewed it, or even the shape of the cup...

All of those will become a beautiful experience.

I'm sure music is just the same, right?

I'll never forget the taste of this coffee, commander.

Thanks, you two...

Let's do our best for tomorrow!

We're going to have a concert in this rain?

We didn't think about the weather at all...

I don't think anyone will come, huh...

Mana hates rain!

According to the military weather report, this rain will let up around the evening.

Alright, let's continue with our preparation then.

Hey, can you see it?

The guests are starting to gather...

What should I do, I'm starting to feel nervous...

Are you nervous, Erie?

It's pretty strange, huh.

Even though I've sung on a bigger stage, with way more audience too...

Miss Aira! How beautiful!

It's time.

Yeah!

A soft breeze passes through the pointy roofs.

The white sunlight is playing around, gleefully.

Even now, when I close my eyes,

the wooden town where I laughed and cried, will welcome me back.

The evening sky is clear in the autumn breeze

The moonlight is pouring down, and the insects chirp

It reminds me of the sky of my hometown far away

Ah, I wonder how my father and mother are

Along the flowing water are blooming bush clover

Round dews gather on silver grass

It reminds me of the field of my hometown

Ah, I wonder who my siblings are playing with

It reminds me of the field of my hometown

Ah, I wonder who my siblings are playing with

I'm really grateful to everyone who has come

to the band squad's first concert today.

Hey, over here!

It's the other way around!

It was really nerve-wracking!

We managed to make them clap along!

Where are Mana's shoes?

Are you done changing?

You guys remember our squad name, right?

Yes...

I'm really honored that there are a lot of people gathered on this important day.

We also received a lot of help from everyone in the village.

In this situation, you might feel a bit restless, but...

For the sake of cheering up, and healing everyone's heart,

we'd like to present to you our song.

We are...

League of Nations air force, 72nd joint fighter squadron,

logistical support company,

aviation magic band!

Good luck!

I don't really understand, but they're basically Witches, right?

Yeah!

They're Witches that sing!

Eh?

The song didn't start?

The equipment!

Why is the song not starting?

Let's sing more

Now let's go toward our dream

Higher, stronger, and now sparks will stop on this finger

Let's try to wish for one of our dreams

Say it out loud with all you can

Send it straight, into the future

Let's play that melody that we like

Then raise the rhythm for today

Now when everyone is together, the song will start

No matter where in this world we go

No matter how the sky will change

I'll be myself

I want to stay as myself

Now, once you take a breath

Let's sing a song

Let your wing of sound spread

You'll be able to fly higher, to the sky, and be stronger, to step forward

Let's sing more

Now let's go toward our dream

Higher, stronger, and now sparks will stop on this finger

Everyone!

Look!

Luminous!

Those girls are staying in my mansion, you know!

Calm down.

Thank you for the invite.

I really enjoyed it.

It was pretty messy though...

I watched it all.

The lights that you gathered, they're still unrefined,

but they're so comforting and lively.

With this, I too, have determined myself.

I'll try to make a move in congress.

The plan that you've made, let's do it together.

Then that means...

Yeah...

Take care... In your world tour.

Travel around the world,

bring some respite and mend the heart of those who are exhausted from the fight,

remind them once again that daily life is filled with fun things...

I'm sure everyone will wait for your arrival.

Yeah, I agree.

Actually, I've already completed the groundwork.

Here's the budget, and the equipment is like this, what do you think?

That's a lot!?

Thank you very much!

We are League of Nation Air Force, Aviation Music Corps, Luminous Witches!

(To be continued)

Hey, how's your day?

Hey, hey, let's talk about it together

A star, shining in the sky, slowly forms a constellation

If something happens, or even when nothing happens

I always want to be by your side, I promise

Squeeze, tightly, firmly, strongly

If we hold our hands together

The morning sun will shine upon the dark, night sky

Then our hearts will become stronger

And now, we'll shine together

I will love everyone more from now on

And I'll try to make everyone think the same for me

While searching for my reason to be here,

I'll sing about everything, both laughs, and tears

With me

With everyone

It's the song for everyone and me

Hey, Pecolas, what should I do?

I know it's impossible, but I ended up wishing to stay here forever...
