Colorful Days Ch. 12

Colorful Days 12 TL

1
(This time, Makoto, the prince-like idol, is in the spotlight! But, why are the uniforms so...girly?)
To my future producer!
(A candy-selling challenge for the idols!)
Today we're going to sell some candy!

I'm usually in charge of acting cool, but today I'm going to do something different!

I get to wear the store's uniform, which is really cute!

2
...Or so I thought...! Why am I the only one-!?
(A butler in a house of maids...?)
Wearing the men's uniform!?
Chapter 12: "The Real Makoto"

3
(Preface: President Takagi Junjirou of Talent agency 765 Production is gathering idols with unique personalities. For the purpose of winning the newbie audition of "Rookie Festa", the idols are going to work hard today as always!)

It can't be helped.

We just don't have enough uniforms.
That suit's reserved for Makoto-kun!
I don't want it!

Who else is here...

M...M...
Men's clothes are...

I absolutely refuse to wear them!
O-Okay then, I'll wear them!

4
(Right: Kikuchi Makoto: Though she has a tomboy's charm, she is actually very feminine at heart.)
(Hagiwara Yukiho: She has a fear of people, but she is actually a very selfless girl. She is also afraid of men.)
(Hoshii Miki: She loves onigiri and sleeping. She processes great natural talent at being an idol, but...)
It'll be fine if we leave it to Makoto!
That's just what other people think...

Well, selling candies in front of the store...
It's like something a real idol would do!

But these are just leftovers from Valentine's Day...
Geh...

Is this really what an idol would do?
Seems more like a part-time job to me, nano.

Don't say such depressing things!

5
(Ganaha Hibiki: A girl with a lot of pets, she is an idol from Okinawa. An emotional, extroverted person.)
(Kisaragi Chihaya: The stoic idol who would do anything to sing. Does she care about anything other than her work?)
M-Makoto-chan...
Hm?
Um...

It feels like the people over there are spying on us....
They really.....do look strange...
I wonder if it's because of our uniforms...

I-I'll get even more nervous if this continues...
It'll be fine!

We have this after all!
U-um...

6
We're giving away a signed bromide...
[TL Note: Bromide is a type of celebrity photo produced for commercial distribution and sales promotions. The name comes from the bromide paper initially used to produce these photos in the 1920s.]
With our cookies, chocolate, and cakes!
Everyone, please buy some!

7
Looks like there's already a lot of customers.
We should go soo-

There are so many guys...
What do I do?
Dressing like this in public is...

Show some energy, you two!
Do you have your photos?
Y-Yeah...

8
You have,
Two kinds of photos, Makoto?

Ah...Yeah.
I think I'll be just fine with the light and fluffy one, but...

Everyone was...
(awawa!)
Your cool side is better!
This fits too!
I have to agree...
So...
Makoto-chan!

9
I like them...
Both!

But...even so.
Everyone wants to see the tomboy me instead.
T-Thanks...
So even if I want to be girlier...

What's going on?
You're leaving the customers all to Miki, y'know?

We should hurry!
Yeah!

10
Here!
Thank you very much!

(Kya-Kya-!)

11
Miki!
Miki!!

What happened, Miki?

Miki tried too hard, so she's really tired now, nano~
Miki's pictures are all gone too...So...
(Fuwaaa...)
There's still more stuff, ya know!

Takane, gimme a hand here!

Hibiki!!

12
These sweets are super...
DELICIOUS.

You're!
Always eating!
The samples!

Geez! Since it's come ta this...
Everybody! Help out!

13
(Shijou Takane: The girl known for her silver hair. With an out-of-the-world personality, she loves to eat.)
Wah, is this the last one?

Next time, you'll definitely have a chance to be cute!
When will that be...
B...But!

But so what?
So many people wanted the suit photo it isn't even worth mentioning...

Why are Hibiki-chan's pets he...

14
A DOG-!!
Kyaun!
Yukiho!?

15
Eh? These...
Are my photos?

They're all of me wearing the suit...
U-Uhh...
Like I though, Yukiho is also one...

But there's no reason to hide it, y'know.

I...
Like Makoto-chan's cool side.

16
And Makoto-chan's cute side,
I like it too!

I can't decide which one I like more...

Both are part of Makoto-chan...
I like both equally!
From the beginning, Yukiho has always...

I'm sorry....for taking these photos...
I thought that if they went quickly,
I would get to see Makoto-chan's cute side...

Everyone wants to see it, after all...

17
I see, you're right.
Whether I'm wearing a suit,
or a fluffy costume;
People want to see both.

Even though the cool photos are a bit more popular,
They still want to see my girl side.

That's because...

Yukiho wants to see them.
Ye-
Yeah!

Um...Makoto.

18
I'm interested, but...
At this rate, only these photos will sell,
Because Makoto's wearing that suit.

If only female fans gather, then it's obvious that this is the only photo that will be popular.
I see...

So I need a way to attract other kinds of customers too...
Th-that's...

19
Come here, Makoto-chan!

Yukiho!?

It's okay, just come!

Yu-Yukiho?
What...!
What's goin' on?
Dunno...
No way!

20
Hagiwara-san, that uniform...
Wah! Don't stare at me!

Makoto-chan, hurry!

21
Um...Well...
Makoto...

CUTE!
Eh!?

It's really surprising, but if fits so well!
E-Expect the unexpected!

Yukiho...
She hates those kinds of clothes too...

23
Yukiho,
Thank you!

Sure!
'Kay, everyone! Back to work!
Yeah!

(Sold out!)

23
A letter?
Those weird people were...
What is it?

30 points?
(Rookie Festa
Temporary Evaluation Form)

Those people were...it can't be..!

Right.
They were RF's critics.
Ritsuko!

They were watching you work the entire time.
Critics...
They were watching the whole time...?

But still, getting this kind of score after working so hard...
R-Right!? There must be something wrong!

Nope, they were spot-on.

24
What did you expect, with an idol who was taking a nap!?
It's the perfect score!
Also, there's something wrong with our sales numbers.
Sales numbers? It can't be...

Takane was eating the....

DELICIOUS.

As expected! (Wait, you guys..!)

(Clear-out sale accomplished!)
Listen here everyone! You have to work!
I'll help too!
Yep, She's getting really into it...
