▶ Nijika Ijichi : The show's about to start!	(0:15:13.00)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I c-c-can't do it!	(0:15:14.60)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : It's not your fault! We just came together today!	(0:15:16.52)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : It's not like I'm very good either.	(0:15:19.18)
▶ Ryo Yamada : I'm very good.	(0:15:21.44)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Just look at me, okay!	(0:15:24.23)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Stay here in reality!	(0:15:26.36)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : It isn't like I could do the intro or anything...	(0:15:28.99)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I-I could offer up my life to put on a harakiri show!	(0:15:32.68)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : Th-They'll at least remember the name of the band, right?	(0:15:36.57)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : Sorry I sucked!	(0:15:39.49)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : That's a little too rock!	(0:15:40.88)
▶ Ryo Yamada : It's okay.	(0:15:42.30)
▶ Ryo Yamada : If they boo you, I'll give them a bonk with my bass.	(0:15:43.45)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : Does a bass make such a fancy noise?	(0:15:47.13)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : I mean, bloodshed is pretty rock.	(0:15:50.68)
▶ Ryo Yamada : It's rock.	(0:15:52.72)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : You can't justify everything with ＂rock＂!	(0:15:53.63)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Besides, it'll probably just be my friends who come to watch us play!	(0:15:55.73)
▶ Ryo Yamada : And Nijika is my only friend, so...	(0:16:00.99)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Normal high school girls don't know good music from bad.	(0:16:03.63)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : That kind of take could get you in trouble on the internet.	(0:16:07.72)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Okay? So just chill!	(0:16:10.60)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I d-dunno...	(0:16:13.15)
▶ Ryo Yamada : I know good music from bad.	(0:16:14.76)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Well, you're not normal.	(0:16:16.55)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Hey, that wasn't a compliment.	(0:16:19.61)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : Sorry.	(0:16:21.76)

▶ Nijika Ijichi : You're right.	(0:16:27.76)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Sorry to push you so hard.	(0:16:29.06)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : No, actually...	(0:16:30.70)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I r-really was happy you reached out to me.	(0:16:32.97)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I've wanted to be in a band for so long...	(0:16:37.70)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : B-But I couldn't get the people together...	(0:16:40.60)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : So I just upload covers to the internet instead.	(0:16:43.47)
▶ Ryo Yamada : What do you usually play?	(0:16:46.52)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : M-Mostly songs by popular bands from the last few years,	(0:16:48.19)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : so I could play them right away once the band got together...	(0:16:51.23)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : That's awesome!	(0:16:54.26)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : It's not.	(0:16:55.28)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : It's the reason I'm the way I am now.	(0:16:56.80)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : Being in a band with other people was a pipe dream after all.	(0:16:59.38)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Covering all popular songs?	(0:17:03.13)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : She sounds like guitarhero-san!	(0:17:05.36)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Have you heard of her?	(0:17:07.73)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : She's probably about our age, I think...	(0:17:08.92)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : guitarhero...	(0:17:09.21)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : M-Me?!	(0:17:11.63)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : I'll send you a link if you haven't!	(0:17:12.99)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : She's super awesome! You should hear her!	(0:17:15.56)

▶ Nijika Ijichi : is that even awesome, popular people are out there playing guitar,	(0:17:41.28)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : lots and lots of them, in places we're not even watching.	(0:17:44.77)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : You should watch her later!	(0:17:49.40)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : I think you'll get what I mean if you watch the videos.	(0:17:50.84)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I always figured real-life people didn't care about me at all...	(0:17:54.65)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : You can't give up on playing in a band just because it didn't work out today!	(0:18:02.47)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : It's possible it's our problem, anyway...	(0:18:05.94)
▶ Ryo Yamada : Our problem?	(0:18:08.29)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Hitori-chan?	(0:18:09.94)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : But someone this nice has been watching me all this time,	(0:18:11.09)

▶ Hitori Gotoh : I know all that, rationally...	(0:18:34.42)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : But I'm still too scared...	(0:18:36.32)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : There's no way I can play in front of an audience...	(0:18:37.82)
▶ Ryo Yamada : If you're scared, you could play from in here.	(0:18:40.64)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I-It's the same environment that I play in all the time!	(0:18:44.31)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : Where exactly do you live?	(0:18:49.20)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : How you feelin' tonight, Shimo-Kita?!	(0:18:51.63)
▶ Ryo Yamada : She's suddenly more outgoing.	(0:18:54.64)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : By the way, how do you want us to introduce you?	(0:18:56.43)
▶ Nijika Ijichi : ＂Hitori-chan＂? Should we use your real name?	(0:18:59.48)
▶ Hitori Gotoh : I'd... I'd rather not...	(0:19:02.17)
