This is a little late, but hey, better late than never! Voting for the current round ends at 13:00 Japan time (in less than an hour from this post), so if you haven’t yet, go support your favorite idol at https://lovelive.bushimo.jp/pdp/vote/

No. 1: Setsuna Yuki

I rose to first place!

It’s because of everyone who supported me. Thank you so much!

Recently, as these sweltering days have been dragging on, I’ve been feeling a bit of summer fatigue. But this news perked me right up!

In this round of voting, it seems that even more people participated than in the first round! I was actually just talking with the rest of the club about how happy we were about that.

Moreover, I’ve heard that the margin between first and last place was incredibly narrow. Even I can’t afford to be careless!

In order to not lose against anyone, and in order to reach even more people with her love, Setsuna Yuki will keep racing with all her strength! I’ll challenge myself with a ton of activities as well! So please continue to watch over me, OK?

No. 2: Rina Tennoji

I didn’t expect at all that I’d be in the top three again.

I’m truly happy to have this many people cheering me on; it feels like I’m living in a dream.

Rina-chan Board: “Hyappo—♪” [TL note: probably just a excited/happy sound]

But, after placing second this time, a new emotion emerged within me. It was “frustration”.

It didn’t even occur to me that such a feeling would come up, so the Rina-chan Board doesn’t have a face prepared for frustration.

…This is surely part of growing up, huh?

Setsuna-san is an amazing person, but I’ll try my best so that I won’t lose next time.

Please support me, as I’ll work really really hard.

Rina-chan Board: “Bowing”

No. 3: Shizuku Osaka

Shocking, isn’t it?

Ahaha, I placed sixth last time, so when they told me I suddenly jumped up to third place, I was astonished.

To everyone who was so kind as to support me, thank you very much!

I’m so shocked and happy that the dialogue I worked so hard to memorize last night has completely disappeared from my mind.

Just kidding! Heheh. Ah, this happiness is the real deal.

Even though I’m inexperienced, there are so many people supporting me.

That makes me very happy, and it’s quite reassuring.

I’ll work diligently so that I can try to live up to everyone’s expectations, even if only a bit, so please continue supporting me!
