Toya
...No. This sound isn't right, either.
Toya
(A song like this couldn't possibly compete with the passion of that night.)
Toya
(I have to go further.)
Toya
(I have to hone it further——to make it hotter.)
Toya
(I have to write a song that can surpass RAD WEEKEND...!)

WEEKEND GARAGE
WEEKEND GARAGE
Ken
Even if you're able to gain skill, it'll be tough for you guys if you carry on doing events the way you have been.
Ken
It's difficult to reignite a flame that's been put out once. You won't have many chances.
Ken
So...we'll be splitting up responsibilities.
Akito
Eh?
Ken
It's vital preparation that you'll need to do in order to surpass RAD WEEKEND.
Ken
First off——Akito, you need to light a fire in your audience.
Akito
...In our audience...?
Toya
(...I see. We're supposed to clear obstacles that bar the path to surpassing RAD WEEKEND, one by one.)
Toya
(Lighting a fire in the audience...it's a role that suits Akito perfectly. I'm certain he'll pull it off.)
Ken
Next is——Toya.
Toya
...Yes!
Ken
Your role——is "track maker".
Toya
...Eh?
Ken
You'll need songs to sing when you surpass RAD WEEKEND. I'll have you compose all of them, by yourself.
Toya
...All of our songs, by myself...you mean?
Ken
Yeah, that's right.
Ken
It goes without saying that a good event needs good music. On top of that, you're trying to surpass RAD WEEKEND. You'll need quality that lives up to that.
An
I-It's true that Toya's music is amazing...but isn't it asking too much to make him write it all alone...?
Ken
——Let me explain my thought process of having Toya write everything by himself.
Ken
First, let me tell you a little bit about the music we wrote when we put on RAD WEEKEND.
Ken
The music we played back then was something the three of us composed together. It was music we poured everything we'd ever felt 'til that moment into.
Toya
Everything you'd felt until that moment...
Ken
Yeah. It was the music we were singing for Nagi's final event, after all.
Ken
Everything that we could put into it, we did.
Ken
And because of that, we were able to heat up the crowd as much as we did...to a level we'd never before experienced.
Ken
That's why, if you all intend on surpassing RAD WEEKEND, you'll need to prepare a song that lives up to that.
Ken
To create "a song that you've put your all into".
Toya
...
Ken
No matter how good your performance is, if you can't write a song like that, you'll never be able to surpass that fire. No way in hell.
