Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

"Being able to write songs for you, seeing you shine on stage, and being attracted by your presence."

"It made me truly feel that music is something that can bring happiness to people."

Tazaki Toru faced them and bent down little by little.

"Thank you for making me feel this happiness."

Without exception, the girls stared at him, their hearts pounding with excitement at his talk of "happiness."

Mika Kohinata secretly covered her mouth, trying hard not to let her tears fall.

She had just finished applying her makeup, and if she were to shed tears now, she might end up crying like a cat.

Tazaki Toru slowly raised his cheek.

After experiencing countless emotional entanglements, and after being unable to refuse their kisses and hugs.

They did not continue to hide, nor did they turn a blind eye.

For the first time, he looked directly at these girls who had captured his heart with an open and honest gaze.

"This happiness deserves to be shared by more people who love you."

"so……"

Those words I heard from others flashed through my mind.

If you like them, just take them all! It's no big deal.

While we're still barely surviving, let's just do whatever we want.

So, do what you desire in your heart.

Tazaki Toru was neither swayed by their words nor persuaded.

Only after communicating with the outside world did I gradually come to understand my true nature.

He slowly opened his mouth: "So..."

"Go ahead and express yourself more freely, show... me and your music."

He seemed to have returned to the sincere and frank Toru Tazaki he once was, yet he was different from the man he was back then.

It means accepting one's inner greed and arrogance, and making peace with one's desires.

A long silence fell over the lounge, and each girl stood frozen in place, staring blankly at Toru Tazaki in front of her.

At that moment, no one expected that it would be Tachibana Rin who was the first to stand up and walk up to Tazaki Toru.

Under the girls' astonished gazes, Tachibana Rin reached out and hugged Tazaki Toru in front of everyone.

The girls, including Hina Aoki, were stunned, never expecting her to be so bold.

Rin Karitachi was completely oblivious, her fingers tightening their grip on Toru Tazaki's sleeve, her cheeks slightly raised, staring at the man in front of her as if no one else was there.

"Hey, Tazaki, do you remember what I once told you?"

"One day, I will make you wholeheartedly support me."

"This statement is no longer valid from today onwards."

Tazaki Toru remained silent, waiting for her to continue.

"Open your eyes wide and watch 'us' carefully from the audience."

“Look at MyGO.”

"I will."

"You need to be louder during the encore, otherwise we won't come out to see you."

"……Um."

Rin Tachibana smiled contentedly, released Toru Tazaki, and took a small step back.

She turned around and saw Yang Gongfei's slightly envious and eagerly waiting soft and sweet posture, and gave her an encouraging look.

Her heart pounded, and as if she had made a huge decision, Yang Gongfei stood up shakily.

Approaching Tazaki Toru, she extended her small fist and tremblingly tapped it on Tazaki Toru's chest.

She lowered her head timidly, and although she didn't say anything, it seemed like Toru Tazaki heard her voice.

This silent punch from Fina is enough to speak volumes.

598. "MyGO!!!!!?" 1st Live 「乀たちはここで氧ぶ」

night.

Tazaki Toru followed the crowd into the audience and stood in a relatively far back position.

The venue is small, only a few hundred people, and is divided into two levels. Several huge load-bearing columns stand in the audience area, taking up a lot of space.

As the lights went out and darkness descended, a loud shout erupted from the audience.

The lead singer turned his back to the audience, clenched his fist and pointed to the sky, the exciting drumbeats piercing the eardrums, deafeningly loud.

The room was dimly lit, with bright lights on both sides of the stage. Under the illumination of the lights, it was difficult to see the faces of the girls on the stage.

Nevertheless, the audience remained enthusiastic.

When the lead singer turned around and the song began, Tazaki Toru's anxiety was immediately soothed.

The girl's voice was not nervous at all; it was strong, clear, and full of confidence.

The flaws that were once criticized countless times have disappeared on stage, leaving only a resolute singing voice.

That soft-spoken and timid lead singer seemed like a completely different person once she stepped onto the stage.

Tazaki Toru stood there blankly below the stage, unable to take his eyes off them.

Although it was just a small venue with a few hundred people, far from being a spectacle for tens of thousands, this was their first time performing on stage as a band.

Toru Tazaki firmly believes that one day they will be able to stand on a wider stage and share their music with more people.

Thousands of people, tens of thousands of people.

And today, in this small live house, "MyGO!!!!!" took its first step.

A country girl living in a rented room.

A wealthy heiress who once wanted to escape the city.

A persistent girl who once thought that nothing existed except music.

A timid lead singer who can't make eye contact with people.

Tazaki Toru witnessed their efforts along the way, and being in the audience himself, he was more able to empathize with them than anyone else around him.

Mika Kohinata, who once cried in Asukayama Park at night, finally put on the crystal shoes she had always dreamed of.

Hina Aoki, who spends every day with Toru Tazaki, plays her prized guitar outside their music room.

Rin Tachibana did not board the Shinkansen to escape, and despite her naturally aloof nature, she was laughing more joyfully than anyone else on stage at this moment.

Having tasted the bitterness of a broken old group, Yang Gongfei shouted herself hoarse on stage in order not to repeat the same mistakes.

Even though you can't see their expressions clearly from below the stage, Toru Tazaki can still sense their inner cries through their figures, songs, and piano music.

--look.

—I'm shining brightly.

Ahh... I'm watching it now, it's almost dazzling.

Watching them burn themselves out, Toru Tazaki's heart had never been so shaken.

Their passionate and enthusiastic performance opened the cracks in my heart, and the emotions that had been piling up in my heart for a long time seemed to be ignited.

Ordinary girls, striving towards their dreams.

It's so captivating.

……

……

As the music ended, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

The lead singer on stage waited for the applause to subside, and was about to speak when she was startled by the continuous applause, uttering a sound of flattery.

Thank you everyone.

"We are very grateful to Mika, our drummer, for supporting us today. Please give her a round of applause."

After Mika stepped down from the stage, Yang Gongfei gripped the microphone tightly.

"The next song is the last one, and this last song is a very, very important song for us at MyGO."

“We, MyGO, are five people.”

"So I still want five people to play this piece together."

The lead singer paused, then took a light breath.

"Please welcome the drummer, Li hope."

As applause erupted, Kobayashi Koko slowly walked onto the stage. It seemed that her flu had improved, and she insisted on coming to the stage despite being ill.

Tazaki Touma hoped that she wasn't just putting on a brave face.

At this moment, all members of MyGO have officially assembled, only to begin their final song of the day.

Rin Tachibana gently plucked the strings, and Hina Himegami slowly closed her eyes. Her slightly hoarse, gentle voice flowed like a poem being recited.

"This piece of music comes from my surroundings and my feeling of not being able to fit into the group."

"But this is nothing special. People who think this way are thinking that there are others here who feel the same way as you."

"You are not alone. It would be wonderful if the other person could notice you." This is what I wrote.

"Please listen to the 'Call of the Lost Star'."

As the song began and the audience erupted in cheers, a lonely and forlorn figure left the venue alone.

Tazaki Toru left the audience seats and went outside the stadium.
