I was incredibly nervous. How was she? What if she turned around and ran away?

Turning around, they suddenly noticed that Goto Ichiri, with a paper bag over his head, was carefully crossing the line and walking towards the three of them.

Clearly, based on a previously agreed-upon decision, she planned to have the three of them help block the audience's view.

It seems she didn't pay any attention to the audience below the stage.

Or rather, because of the paper bag over their heads, they could only see a few tens of centimeters around their feet.

At the same time, the two also saw the animated PV playing on the screen behind them.

Although the animation for Lonely Rock has not yet started production, taking advantage of Musashino's early completion of her two anime series this season, she specially created a PV for the animation in order to make herself and others eligible to apply.

With such great conditions, if you don't perform well, you'll have nightmares all year round next year.

Nijika and Kita Ikuyo exchanged a glance and smiled unconsciously.

Kita Ikuyo nodded slightly, then turned to the audience and said loudly:

"Hello everyone, we are the End Band, the protagonists of the animated series Lonely Rock."

"The animation we're in will be released next April."

"Our band's guitarist, Little Lonely, is the pink-haired girl in the background. She's too socially anxious to meet people."

"However, her guitar skills are very high, and she even has a Guitar Hero ID online."

"...Next, please enjoy our band's performance, the song 'Adolescent Syndrome'!"

Because they weren't very famous yet, the atmosphere at the end of the band's performance was much cooler compared to their previous ones.

However, thanks to the animated PV on the screen behind her, Goto Ichiri's unprecedented appearance and gloomy, impassioned lines also attracted countless viewers.

In the audience below the stage, the families of the four were also filled with excitement.

"Yili... has grown up and finally made friends."

Goto's mother was deeply moved, and her eyes welled up with tears.

When the song ended, the three on stage bowed in thanks at the same time. Only Goto Ichiri, with a paper bag over his head, was still confused and stood there holding his guitar.

As the three of them stood up and prepared to leave the stage, Goto Ichiri suddenly bowed, startling them.

The group looked surprised and quickly pulled her backstage.

Honestly, covering your head already makes you super conspicuous, and then you're a beat slow to react.

This is being broadcast live, and not only are tens of thousands of people at the scene watching, but viewers across the country are also watching it on television.

Despite a perfectly smooth performance, they pulled a stunt at the end, embarrassing themselves before the animation even aired.

Chapter 253 From the 2D World to Reality

Back in the backstage preparation room, Hongxia immediately helped Goto Ichiri remove the paper bag from his head.

"Little Pochi, how are you feeling?"

My heart is beating a little fast.

"Hehe... I feel the same way. Performing on the biggest stage in the country, it just feels different."

Did I embarrass everyone again just now?

"It's okay. In fact, it was quite interesting. It's a pity you didn't see what happened. The sea of ​​people and the animation on the screen behind us were truly amazing. It felt like we were flying in the clouds."

"??"

"Little Bochi, let's put together more songs. Then, let's try to hold a concert here before we turn 30."

"it is good."

"However, first you need to overcome your psychological barrier, then you can't wear a paper bag next time."

"Ah."

As they were talking, deafening shouts came again from the direction of the venue.

While factors such as the popularity of anime and singers may play a role, the audience's reaction is undoubtedly the best proof.

It's obvious who sang better.

Recalling the audience's reaction when she and her friends performed, Hongxia was filled with emotion.

"Compared to those popular singers, we still have a long way to go."

"We can't waste such a good start." Yamada Ryo nodded slightly.

Hongxia naturally understood what she meant. Before even officially debuting, they were able to perform on the biggest stage in the country. Such a band was truly unique.

Moreover, the anime adaptation of the four characters' names is also a very powerful form of promotion, with K-On! being the best example.

Without the anime, Yui Hirasawa and the others would definitely have disbanded the band and gone their separate ways after entering university.

"Huh…?"

"What's wrong, Yu Dai?"

"Setsuna-senpai is amazing. It feels like a lot of viewers are going crazy."

The three immediately gathered around Kita Ikuyo. On her phone screen, Ogiso Setsuna was dressed up and standing on a stage, with an animated clip of Touma Kazusa "confronting" her behind her.

Behind her, countless bullet comments flashed by, almost completely covering the background.

"I thought she would sing the promotional song for the PV, 'Unreachable Love,' but she actually chose 'Renai Circulation'?"

"That's understandable. This song is amazing even without backup dancers, and the stage effects are superb."

"Your singing voice is so sweet!"

"Don't look at me." Seeing Yamada Ryo looking at her, Goto Ichiri unconsciously hid behind Nijika. "I can't write lyrics like this."

"That's not what I meant. I couldn't write this kind of piece either. But it sounds really nice."

"Setsuna-senpai's voice has a great texture; she can sing both high and low notes. I definitely can't sing this kind of song."

After watching the live stream on her phone for a while, Hongxia suddenly realized something.

"Wait a minute, we're right here at the venue, and we even have VIP seats reserved for us. Why are we watching the live stream in the backstage preparation room? Hurry up and change your clothes, then go watch it live."

"no problem."

When the group arrived at the venue, a scene from One Piece, featuring Luffy and his crew sailing the seas, was playing on the screen, while a singer on stage was performing "Binks' Sake".

One song for each anime, none of them expected that with so many songs related to the anime One Piece, they would choose this one.

Moreover, the singer is none other than Brook's voice actress, Nagashima-sensei.

Suddenly, a sense of tension arose among the four of them that they hadn't felt during their performance on stage.

As complete newcomers, is it really appropriate for the four of us to perform on the same stage as these super famous voice actors and singers?

With Brooke's signature grotesque laugh, one song ended and the next began.

This time, the main characters from Oregairu are on stage. In addition to the male protagonist, Hachiman Hikigaya, there are four female protagonists.

While the staff were helping to move the equipment, Hongxia took the opportunity to look around.

To the left are Ryo and her two friends, and beyond that are several empty seats, probably reserved for other performers. To the right is another empty seat, and beyond that is Hayase Masamune's mother.

At this moment, she is chatting enthusiastically with the person next to her.

Just as I was wondering whether I should take the opportunity to say hello, Ogiso Setsuna came over and sat down next to me.

Hongxia was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening.

Considering the performance order and the fact that they knew each other, her seat here was quite reasonable.

"Yukina-senpai, you sang very well just now. However, I thought you would choose the anime PV."

"That song is too sad. I just can't sing it in such a lively setting to express that feeling."

Yukina smiled slightly and echoed, "..."

"Your performance was very good, but why is Yili dressed like that?"

"She was ashamed to see people..."

After a few casual words, the performance of Oregairu began.

"Hello everyone, I am Yui Yuigahama from the anime 'My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As Expected'. That's right, not the voice actress, but myself."

"Many people probably already know from Aqi that animated characters actually have real-life counterparts."

"This is the well-known Hachiman Hikigaya, the author of many novels..."

“Previously, we originally planned to sing two songs separately. Yukino, I, and Ayaha would sing one song, and Akira would sing his own character song.”

"But since the rule is that each animation can only have one song performed, we combined the two into one."

"Next, please listen to our song..."

The moment the melody began, clips from the first two seasons of Oregairu started playing on the large screen at the back of the stage.

The song chosen by the group is the theme song for the second season. In the anime, it's a female version, but now it includes Hachiman Hikigaya's voice.

Of course, the voices of the four characters are different from those of the voice actors in the animation; the difference is quite significant.

However, the image is exactly the same as the animation behind it. Because of the school uniform, it is as if a live-action version of an anime character has stepped out of the two-dimensional world into reality.

As the song began, cheers and shouts quickly rose from the audience below the stage.

"Thank you everyone, and welcome to our General Military High School."

After Yuihama and the other three left, Shizuka Sakaki, Aoi Miyamori, and the other four took the stage.

As the female protagonist of the Shirobako anime, Aoi Miyamori stands in the center, with the other four people on her left and right.

"Hello everyone, I am Aoi Miyamori from 'Shirobako', and I work as the production manager at Musashino Animation Studios."

"These four are my friends of many years, and they have all appeared in the anime. This is Shizuka Sakaki..."

"Next, please listen to our song..."

The song they chose was the opening theme of Shirobako. Since the main series just ended last weekend and there is still one OVA episode to be broadcast, the audience is not unfamiliar with the five members.

Listening to that familiar melody, Setsuna unconsciously thought:
