Aww, Mitsuru-kun. Is that how you feel about us? That's so sweet. You're going to make me cry ♪
Tomoya
Hey now...don't cry, Hajime. So Mitsuru, if you think that way about us, why do you run away from us every chance you get?
Tomoya
Perhaps you think that we're just not on the same level as you.
Tomoya
I mean, granted you have talent.
Tomoya
And maybe you feel that we're dragging you behind, so you feel the need to run away from us. But we're gonna catch up to you, you know. We're not gonna let you leave us behind!
Mitsuru
That's not it at all. In fact, I'm the one who's scared that YOU'RE all gonna just leave me behind. So much so that I haven't been able to sleep at all lately.
Nazuna
Guys! You're just going to sit there and chat away? You do realize that I'm dancing and singing my butt off as per your request, right?
Nazuna
Anyway, don't be silly, Mitsuru! As long as I'm in Ra*bits, no one is getting left behind!
Mitsuru
Yeah, but lately my whole body's been in pain. I looked it up and apparently, I'm experiencing a growth spurt.
Mitsuru
Then I start thinking...what if I grow huge and stop being adorable? Would Ra*bits still have me then? I keep thinking about that and it terrifies me.
Mitsuru
Next thing you know, I fall down and get hurt because I haven't been getting much sleep lately.
Nazuna
Ah, so that's what happened.. Finally, the mystery's solved! Anyway, you should have come talk to us sooner. You know that I'm always here for you.
Nazuna
I understand how you're feeling, but what you're going through is completely normal. All of us will grow up eventually, we're human!
Nazuna
There's no stopping your body from growing nor can you turn back time. We're not gods here, and time is the only thing that we cannot control.
Nazuna
Everyone has to go through this, it's a normal part of growing up!
Nazuna
But no pain no gain, right?
Nazuna
Besides, it's not all doom and gloom. Putting me aside, Hajime-chin and Tomo-chin are going through this, too. You guys can grow together.
Nazuna
You guys will always be friends--heck, family even. The three of you are like birds of a feather. And as long as you're a Ra*bits member, you'll always be together.
Mitsuru
Well, what about you Ni~chan? You're a part of Ra*bits, too! Sometimes you talk as if you're an outsider. You're not going on this journey with us?
Nazuna
Well, you bunnies are just so young and active, I don't know if this old rabbit can keep up.
Nazuna
But don't you underestimate this
Nazuna
Seriously, though. I can't leave you guys alone even a second. I mean, look how this fiasco turned out.
Nazuna
By the way, what you keep calling a growth spurt is probably just DOMS or delayed onset muscle soreness.
Nazuna
I know, because I experienced the same thing.
Nazuna
Think about it, You've been working on some pretty sick dance moves lately, haven't you?
Nazuna
I've been teaching you some advanced stuff since you're always complaining about how boring your dance moves were.
Tomoya
Hey, no fair! Why does he get to learn special moves?
Nazuna
You'll get there eventually, but right now you're not there yet. You two need to focus on building a good foundation first.
Nazuna
It'll come naturally. Besides, each of you bring something different to the table.
Nazuna
For now, Mitsuru-chin and I will do the crazy dance moves so that our performances can gain some more momentum.
Nazuna
It's important to focus on personal growth, but also the growth of our unit.
Nazuna
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that Mitsuru-chin, you've started using muscles you don't normally use. So of course it's gonna hurt.
Nazuna
In fact, I know exactly where you're hurting! Here right? *Pinch* Yup, then it's definitely just DOMS.
Mitsuru
I see. Thank God! I was really freaking out about it. ♪
Nazuna
But don't get me wrong, you are all actually growing. I mean, you guys have gotten taller and brawny, too.
Nazuna
Eventually, we're going to have other tricks up our sleeves aside from just being cute.
Nazuna
I guess this wraps it up. See, if you had just told us in the first place, we could've dealt with it in a matter of minutes.
Nazuna
So no matter what the issue is, don't just bottle it up—it'll just eat at you and fester away like an infection in your body. Make sure you talk to someone about it.
Nazuna
And that goes to all of you—not just Mitsuru.
Nazuna
And I'll do the same, too. I'm gonna be opening up way more to you guys. We're all small baby animals here, so we gotta lean on each other!
Nazuna
We're Ra*bits—for bunny hearts beating as one!
Mitsuru
Aw, thanks, Ni~chan! It's like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders! I feel sooooooooo relieved.
Nazuna
Great!
Nazuna
But now's not the time to relax! We still gotta figure out what to do about this project.
Nazuna
I'm sure the four of us can tackle this problem. Let's start brainstorming—what d'ya guys got? C'mon, don't be shy—
Nazuna
Because to be honest, I still got no idea.
Mitsuru
Hahhaa, that's our Ni~chan, all right! Reliable but underconfident!
Mitsuru
But that's okay! We`ll work it out together! And if you get stuck, you can always count on me!
Nazuna
Why you cheeky fella...Aww, but you're just so cute.
Mitsuru
Mhmm! I'm a cheeky fella! And I'm also a difficult child, a dumb kid, but I'm also cute as hell, am I right? No matter if we're good boys, bad boys or normal boys, we're always going to cute as hell.
Mitsuru
And last but not least, we are always going to be the adorable Ra*bits members that our Ni~chan raised!
