Side text: One night after that confession...
Chika[flashback]: I really really love you too, Hozuki
Satowa[thoughts]: I couldn't sleep AT ALL...
Satowa[thoughts]: What do I do, is morning already!?
Satowa[thoughts]: I just kept thinking about that moment and now... Am I an idiot? Before the competition!! It's just before the competition!!!
Satowa[thoughts]: Aaah what kind of face should I make today!? No, but Kudo just acted so normally!
Satowa[thoughts]: This is Kudo we are talking about so maybe he was playing along with the rest and he meant it as a friend??
Satowa[thoughts]: Even so...
Satowa[thoughts]: I am telling you is just before the competition, CONCENTRATE.
Isaki: I heard everything, Chika-- You said that you LOVED Satowa-chan in front of everyone--?
Isaki: "Yeah"...? Wait a second this is not the reaction I expected...
Chika: But for real, those guys immediately told you.
Isaki: No, wait, why are you acting so norma...
Isaki: Wh... When you said you loved her you couldn't have possibly...
Isaki: ..meant you loved her as a friend, right...
Chika: Well, I love her as a friend too
Isaki: I cannot believe you! Playing like that with the heart of a lady!! That's why you--....
Isaki: As a friend... Too..?
Chika: Why are you blushing?
Isaki: Why you say... You too, why are you acting all smug!?
Isaki: You used to turn red when I teased you about something related to Satowa-chan, and would just play dumb!
Chika: Is because I didn't want to think about it like "something to be embarrassed about"
Chika: Someone saying that they love you
Chika: Or telling someone that you love them
Chika: I thought it was something to be really happy about.
Isaki: Of course I'm gonna cry!
Isaki: What is this--- You suddenly turned into an adult! I am going to cook some red rice... *In Japan, you cook red rice and eat it to celebrate an event
Chika: You don't cook... That would just be black rice
Isaki: ...Chika, I also treasure you... Because I love you.
Chika[thoughts]: Sound and what is between the sounds.
Chika[thoughts]: Words and what is between the words.
Chika[thoughts]: To convey with sound.
Chika[thoughts]: What is conveyed by the absence of sound.
Satowa: G- Goo- Good-- Good Moriiing.
Chika: ...About the title, [Peace]...
Chika: At the beginning, the title was the alphabet letter "I", right?
Chika: I didn't think too much about it because at that time it was still (provisional), but...
Chika: I wondered if [I] could mean [Myself]
Chika: Yeah, the letter [I] is also the pronoun [I] in English.
Satowa: Oh my. I can't believe you actually knew that.
Satowa: But I see... [Myself]...
Chika: If one part is its own person, and there's a part for each person...
Chika: I wondered if it was about the "peace" when each person stands firm and connects with another person.
Satowa: Tha- That is really good!!
Satowa: Because [I] was a provisional title I didn't give it much thought either but,
Satowa: I see, the change from [I] to [Peace] also has meaning...
Satowa: If you think about it that way, you might be able to see something that was difficult to interpret before!!
Satowa: More, the whole song would change completely!!
Satowa: Kudo, practice with me for a bit!!
Sane: Th- This is... umm...
Sane: A morning practice date...?
Mittsu: I- I can feel the youth...?
Kota: This is way too calm...
Satowa: Kudo, a little bit more strength there
Chika: Right, also around here--
Takezou: You two are surprisingly a lot like always...
Hiro[thoughts]: Can't you act a little bit more innocently!?
Chika: Ooh you guys are late. Let's start practicing already.
Sane: Yesterday... Was that an illusion?
Kota: These two are just a pair of koto idiots.
Hiro[thoughts]: Hozuki-chan and Chika-kun are amazing. If it was me I would definitely---...
Takezou: Ku- Kurusu-san!? Are you alright!?
Hiro: I'm sorry, just got a little bit emotional.
Hiro: Ah, good morning Momoya-ku...
Hiro & Takezou: Momoya-kun!?
Kota: Wh-wh-what happened Momoyan!!? It's still morning you know!?
Mittsu: Did Chika's confession distort space and time!?
Natsu: Is nothin' much. I just didn't think I wouldn't make it in time to finish my part.
Natsu: I am not ok with being in the club around the clock, but I'm not okay with dragging the performance down either.
Sane: Ok, let's do this!!!
Sane: Granny, good evening---
Sane: This is Momoya. He finally came to Granny's!
Granny: Aaah the exemplary one
Natsu[thoughts]: The exemplary...?
Natsu: Thanks for having me
Granny: When I said [the exemplary] I didn't mean it as a bad thing.
Granny: Those kids are always talking about you.
Granny: Saying that you have incredible sense, and always bring a perspective that they hadn't thought about. They rely on you.
Sane: Aaah!! I understand. [I]->The [Peace] that comes from [Me]
Sane: When you put it like that, it makes sense!
Kota: Is something Suzu-chan would have thought-!
Sane: There might be more meaning if we use the same pronunciation
Takezou: At the beginning, I thought the [I] meant "Ai" as in [Love]. Sensei has a romantic side to him.
Kota: Ah right, he titled Tenkyuu!
Takezou: If I said that to him he would knock me out, though.
Takezou: Also, Sensei is a math teacher, so I wondered if it had something to do with the imaginary number i.
Chika: What in the hell are you talking about? Is that a spell or something
Hiro: Ah, but if that's the case, it could also be "Ai" like the kanji used to say [Sorrow].
Hiro: I remember Suzuka-chan said something about how to express "Yang" you needed to express "Ying".
Kota: That's right, he said that!!
Mittsu: I didn't say anything, but I always thought about the fact that [I] is the 9th letter of the alphabet, the same number of members in our club!
Kota: Ooh, seriously!? Mittsu you are amazing!!
Mittsu: Well, this was all before the 1st years came in, so in the end is a coincidence.
Sane: No, Suzu-chan might have precognition abilities!!
Satowa: If you think about, if we don't limit ourselves to the kanji of [Peace], "Ai" has a lot of meanings.
Kota: Right, right! Uummm... Ah! "Ai" as in [Meeting], for example?
?: Even the semantic is good!
Chika: Momoya, Yoshinaga what about you? No ideas?
Atsumu: Let's see... Then, the "Ai" in [Partner], maybe?
Mittsu: Oh that's right!!
Kota: Good one, Yoshirin!
Natsu: Why are you looking at me...?
Takezou: Momoya-kun, what do you think?
Natsu: Then, what about this
Natsu: This... Can also be read "Ai"
Natsu: Sound and what is [between] the sound. Senpai, you were always obsessing over that, right?
Chika: I feel like this will be an amazing performance...!
Sane: I'm starting to feel giddy...
Mittsu: I'm getting excited!!
Kota: Hey, let's try to link those 9 meanings!!
Takezou: When [I] [meet] you, and we [gather], when we become [partners], when we learn each other's thoughts [between] the words, when we know about each other's [sorrows], and we learn abour each other's [love], when we know [ourselves], we find [Peace].
Kota: A great interpretation has just been born!!
Hiro: But if we really think about it this way, then this song is really...
Mittsu: --Thank you for lending me your koto for so long
Mittsu: You really helped me out there!
Mittsu: Also, sorry you had to come for it, I should have returned it mysel---
Mittsu: To tell you the truth, when I was practicing alone at home, I would get really anxious.
Mittsu: But in those moments, I would look at the dragon's tongue and see the [Chika] engraved there. That made me... How do I say...
Mittsu: "Do your best!". Is like it was telling me I wasn't alone.
Chika[thoughts]: I could never figure out my solo
Chika[thoughts]: My sound
