2 Years Ago, Mito.

???: Real lame, don’cha think?

???: He’s pathetic as a delinquent.

???: And equally pathetic when trying to play at being part of the Student Council.

???: …HAH?

???: We can’t seriously be tolerating this.

???: Probably.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: What, no one’s here again?

Sakuya: We’ve successfully held our concert, and we’ve even pasted our posters up at the Music Education department, yet we don’t seem to be getting any new members.

Hayate: The people in music ed aren’t like those in general ed. We don’t exactly have the time to go parading around with such a suspiciously shady Orchestra.

Sakuya: If so… then what does that make you, exactly…?

Tomoharu: Hahaha. He does have a point.

⊳ Choice: It’s not anything to be joking about

Tomoharu: Pfft- Sorry. I do suppose it’s bad to joke about this, considering our situation.

⊳ Choice: You’re completely open to jibes

Hayate: Wha- Is that how you treat someone who lends you a helping hand!?

Tomoharu: Hmm… But if that’s how it is, then I don’t think we’ll have much luck recruiting members in Seiso Academy.

Sakuya: Yeah. Maybe we should try appealing in a different place—

Ginga: Oh, you’re all gathered?

Ginga: Ready to head out? Plum, natto and history-rich streets await us all!

Kazuma: Do you remember Hashizumi-sensei, from the Mito Symphony Orchestra, who was in attendance for our concert?

Kazuma: She has graciously offered to introduce us to a place where we can hold our future concerts if any.

Tomoharu: Eh? We’re going to hold our next concert in Mito?

Sakuya: Isn’t that kinda far?

Ginga: Cease your chatter! Yeesh, you lot. For people who are aiming to go global, your worldview really is tiny!

Ginga: Isn’t Ibaraki just a moment away if you go by the Joban Expressway?

Hayate: Mito, huh? It would be great if we could get Osakabe-san to join us…

Hayate: He was the Trumpets’ leader from last year’s Starlight Orchestra.

Hayate: He won 4th place in the Brass Section of the Jr. Classical Music Concours just as he’d entered his first year in high school.

Hayate: We were in different sections, so I didn’t really get to interact much with him. But, he’s reliable and someone worthy of respect.

Ginga: Heh? He sounds like an amazing person. Alrighty then, let’s try our damndest to induct him into our ranks.

Hayate: If he’s willing to join the Starlight Orchestra again, then…

Hayate: Maybe there’s some helping this misfit of a Starlight Orchestra, as well as how messy this room is.

Ginga: Huh?

Hayate: I’m talking about this sloppy mess in here— Empty cup noodle cups, pet bottles, and that barely standing mountain of papers just piled together in a heap.

Hayate: He’s also the Student Council President of his school, and very neat about things. I’m sure he’ll put the right to things here.

Hayate: I’m seeing a glimmer of hope here, (L/n).

Ginga: I, on the other hand, am absolutely horrified…

Sakuya: Well, it works out for you too, doesn’t it?

Tomoharu: If we have brass instrument players joining us, that’ll also mean that we’ll be able to play a wider variety of songs.

⊳ Choice: Let’s head out to Mito then! 

Tomoharu: Yes! It’s going to be fun, don’t you think, senpai?

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Nono: You’re going to Mito? That’s brilliant~!

Nono: That place is a noted place of connection of a really amazing Orchestra Conductor from Berlin ♪

Nono: I look forward to seeing the superb new members who’ll be joining us, Concertmistress!

Sakuya: Mito really does have a lot of beautifully scenic locations.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

⊳ Choice: Is it your first time here, Sakuya?

Sakuya: …I don’t think I’ve gone anywhere else other than Tokyo and Yokohama…

⊳ Choice: Let’s enjoy ourselves since we’re here.

Sakuya: What’s with that super bookmarked and labeled guidebook you have there with you? We’re not here to play, you know…

Tomoharu: Wow… Hey, this stamina ramen looks delicious. Why don’t we come to try it out next time?

Hayate: It’s said that the first person in Japan to ever eat ramen was Lord Mito Mitsukuni.

⊳ Choice: What’s a “Kodokan”?

Hayate: What, you’re from the General Education department, and you know nothing about Japan’s history?

Hayate: It’s the domain school founded by Tokugawa Nariaki, a feudal lord from the Mito Clan.

Hayate: Its development eventually had a great influence on Yoshida Shoin, Saigo Takamori, as well as the other patriots during the final years of the Edo period.

Hayate: This Bizenbori Canel seems to be part of Modern Mito’s eight picturesque sights, including the Hinuma River.

Hayate: It’s a famous historic city that has prospered since ancient times, thanks to the waterborne transport trade of the Naka River.

Joyo Male Student 2: C’mon, c’mon! Seems like it has already started!

Joyo Male Student 1: You were way too slow with that bowl of ramen!

Tomoharu: I wonder what happened? A fight, maybe?

Ginga: Maybe, but hearing them mention ramen makes me want to have a bowl of it for myself too.

Ginga: Stamina ramen chock full of ingredients, huh. But Mito Ramen sounds good too~

Sakuya: Huh? Wait… hang on.

Sakuya: Sensei? Didn’t you just cook rice back at the minivan’s kitchen? And quite a large amount of it too.

Ginga: Huh? Err…

Sakuya: And weren’t you saying how all you had to do was to purchase some side dishes for a perfect lunch?

Ginga: Ehh? ��But I can just throw them into the refrigerator, can’t I~?

Sakuya: The refrigerator isn’t capable of holding that much food, and you know that.

Sakuya: Looks like it’s decided then. I’ll go buy some side dishes for us. Ramen next time, yes?

Ginga: …Fine…

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: Honestly. His lack of planning is shockingly disconcerting.

Sakuya: And you look like you’re having fun with everything and anything, either way… Hm?

Sakuya: This sounds like… a Trumpet? But where is it coming from?

Sakuya: “Let’s go check it out”? Wait- Hey, (L/n)!

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: Wow… What a rich and smooth reverberation…

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Joyo Male Student 1: *sobbing* Kirigaya-san… How amazing…

Joyo Male Student 2: My heart’s been rekindled…

Sakuya: Wha- Watch out. This place is filled with dangerous-looking people!

Sakuya: Let’s quickly make our escape, (L/n). We have to get out before they notice us.

⊳ Choice: I want to listen to the performance a little more / I want to know that Trumpeter’s name

Sakuya: Now’s not the time for that!

Yasu: Oh no! Boss! Something terrible happened!

Akira: Hm? What’s happened, Yasu?

Yasu: Some guys from Kasa High are tryin’ to pick a fight out at the bridge! They seem super full of themselves!

Yasu: Our 1st and 2nd years are getting overwhelmed by about 3 or so people.

Akira: Oh? Now that’s some guts they have to be attacking Joyo in broad daylight. 

Akira: They asked for it, so I’m going to play along. Let’s go.

Delinquents: YEAH!

Sakuya: I guess they’re all going out to… fight? Everyone filed out just like that, at a snap of his fingers…

Sakuya: I don’t think they saw us at all.

⊳ Choice: I missed his name.

Sakuya: You mean that Trumpeter? I heard someone addressing him as “Kirigaya-san”?

⊳ Choice: Now my adrenaline’s pumping!

Sakuya: You’re really prone to sticking your nose into things that you really should be steering clear of.

⊳ Choice: Terrifying…

Sakuya: Well, I suppose we should count our lucky stars for having avoided them.

Sakuya: Besides, what is this place? The signboard says “Ouroboros”...

Sakuya: There’s a stage here, but it doesn’t seem to be in use.

Sakuya: Anyway, let’s get out of here quick. It’ll be troublesome if those people come back.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ginga: Huh, I see.

Tomoharu: A delinquent Trumpeter? Sounds like Louis Armstrong if you ask me.

⊳ Choice: Louis Armstrong?

Tomoharu: He’s an American Jazz Musician. He was sent to a Juvenile Home as a kid and had many ups and downs in life, but…

Tomoharu: Despite facing discrimination,  he was a brilliantly talented genius Trumpeter.

⊳ Choice: Yeah…

Tomoharu: I should have gone with you guys.

Tomoharu: “Ouroboros”...? I recall that that was the name of the Jazz  Café & Bar that opened for business a couple of years ago.

Tomoharu: Here, look. This video seems to have been taken from when the place was still in business.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

I saw 2 Trumpets being played on the video that Narumiya showed me on his phone.

⊳ Choice: It’s the guy from earlier!

Tomoharu: What? This performer’s the same guy you saw earlier? Wow. He’s definitely good…

Ginga: We can’t really see the other guy. The video’s too dark.

Tomoharu: It looks like this video was shot from the audience, after all.

Hayate: This uniform looks like Joyo Technical High School’s; the same school that Osakabe-san is in.

Tomoharu: What?

Sakuya: Come to think of it… Those guys were saying something about “Joyo” as well…

⊳ Choice:  Let’s check out Joyo Technical High School.

Hayate: Yeah. We’re going to ask Osakabe-san to join us, so we might as well drop by.

Sakuya: That’s the school that those guys we saw are attending, right? I’m already having a bad feeling about this…

???: You still have that dreamy look on your face.

???: Did you enjoy today’s concert?

???: You want to be a part of something like that someday?

???: Sure, I don’t see why not.

???: How about we make the best orchestra in the world?

???: Hey, wake up.

???: Wakey-wakey.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

???: Good morning. Classes are over for the day.

⊳ Choice: Huh? What about the best orchestra in the world?

Sakuya: Looks like you’re still half-asleep.

⊳ Choice: 5 more minutes…

Sakuya: Are you planning on sleeping here till the morning after?

Sakuya: I really admire how you can just drop off to sleep like that. You haven’t submitted your career guidance form yet, right?

Sakuya: I was just gonna ask you to hand it in ASAP, but… it doesn’t look like you’ve filled it in any way. I mean, look at you. You fell asleep while reading a magazine.

Sakuya: *sigh* If you’re worrying about whether or not you drooled in your sleep, maybe you should stop sleeping out in the open like this. You’re reading about Tsukishiro Kei again? I don’t know how you aren’t bored of it yet.

⊳ Choice: It really brings me back… / I won’t ever forget that…

Sakuya: Yes, I’ve already heard that conversation many times over. You fell in love with his music ever since you heard him play back as a kid, right? The music of Tsukishiro Kei’s violin.

Sakuya: But it doesn’t matter how much you adore him, he’s still someone a world apart from us.

Sakuya: Didn’t the orchestra that you joined during middle school end up disbanding?

Sakuya: There’s no way I can ever forget what happened… Especially not when something like that happened on the day the results were announced…

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: A pass, huh… Well, I suppose that sounds about right.

Sakuya: —Hm?

Sakuya: …Ah…

Sakuya: ……

Sakuya: Hey, wa-wait a minute! Why are you using my scarf to wipe your tears away!?

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: *sigh* I was truly unfortunate to have been the one standing beside you back then…

Sakuya: I never thought that I’d end up keeping an eye out for you ever since we enrolled…

The day we were rejected from music education and ended up being sorted into general education.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

⊳ Choice: Sorry for troubling you…

Sakuya: Well, I’ve already accepted my fate.

⊳ Choice: You weren’t exactly keeping an eye out for me.

Sakuya: And what do I have to thank for that? Your non-existent self-awareness.

⊳ Choice: Why makes you say that?

Sakuya: Don’t you remember? Everyone around us was chattering about how I was the one who made you cry.

Sakuya: You fell sick with a fever during the period where the exams for the music ed department took place, not to mention how the orchestra you were part of disbanded…

Sakuya: You weren’t able to give the exam your best shot. Maybe it was because of the string of unlucky incidents you’d experienced before that, but it might also be fate.

Sakuya: Because even if you did get into the music ed department, there’s still no guarantee that you’ll be able to join the Orchestra Club…

—Wait, the Orchestra Club!?

⊳ Choice: Hang on, what time is it now!?

Sakuya: Now? 3.40 PM, wh-

Sakuya: You’re participating in the Orchestra Club’s entry test? So that’s why you stayed up all night just to practise and… Wait, but doesn’t that mean- Hey, (L/N)!

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Music Ed Guy: *sigh* There are so many people hoping to join the Club… Then again, this IS Seiso Academy’s Orchestra Club, so that does make sense.

There was a line of hopeful prospects queuing outside the Music Room, awaiting their turn for the entry test.

⊳ Choice: Now I’m nervous… / I just have to treat it like normal practice!

Music Ed Girl 1: …Hey… Isn’t that girl… that uniform… Isn’t that general ed’s?

Music Ed Girl 2: Ehh? Why’d she come here? And she’s a 2nd year, judging from the colour of her tie. She’s not even a freshman.

???: Hey, you lot! We’re in the middle of a test, so quit yammering.

???: Next, please.

⊳ Choice: Okay! / I’ll give it my best!

Hayate: What? Aren’t you… a general ed student?

Hayate: Are you the same student that came last year? I believe I’d already told you back then…

Hayate: Look, you can see for yourself. We’re currently swamped with freshmen who’re applying for the club. After all, we’re one of the usual few schools to end up entering the National Concours.

Hayate: The chances of entering the Club even as a music ed student are slim enough. What makes you think we’ll even consider people from general ed?

Hayate: Stop joking around and go home. If you want to play the violin, then do so in front of the park or the station.

Hayate: Next person, please.

⊳ Choice: 1 minute! Just 1 minute!

Hayate: No.

⊳ Choice: I can go last! 

Hayate: How persistent. It doesn’t matter whether you go now or later.

Hayate: Wha-what? Don’t grab at my sleeve!

Hayate: You won’t lose to their passion? Who cares!? I’m telling you that we don’t need people like you here!

Music Ed Girl 1: Yikes… Poor thing…

Music Ed Girl 2: Nothing they can do about it. I heard that there used to be an Orchestra Club for general ed students.

Music Ed Girl 2: But they’d suddenly decided that exams were more important and disbanded right before the Concours.

……

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Music Ed Girl 1: I hope they somehow win the Concours this time.

Music Ed Guy 1: I heard that they’re going to have a joint concert with the students from Yokohama Amane Gakuen High School.

Music Ed Girl 2: Looks like I’ll have to get a new dress so that I’m prepared if I’m ever called up to stage as a guest.

Music Ed Girl 3: Who knows? I might even get into a violin romance with someone…

Music Ed Girl 4: Isn’t that one of this school’s 7 mysteries? The one where the Fata, the fairies of music, tie your fate with someone who also plays?

Music Ed Guy 2: I’m gonna be late for Ogura-sensei’s class! And my analysis isn’t done either! 

 ☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: ……

⊳ Choice: Were you waiting for me?

Sakuya: It’s not like I was waiting for you or anything…

Sakuya: I just went to submit the career guidance forms I collected, and we just happened to get out at the same time.

Sakuya: ……

⊳ Choice: I didn’t even get to play…

Sakuya: I see… I mean, at least you tried, right?

Sakuya: You look so much worse for the wear. Come on, let’s head back.

*Yeah. Uh, well... welcome to my whims again? *Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut

Rei: I knew it. Well, who do you want to spend your time with tonight on this merry Christmas?

[Selection: Kujo Sakuya]

Rei: Brilliant. Who knows, he might even be waiting for you. See you, and have a nice Christmas.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

I can’t find Sakuya anywhere… But I can hear the faint sound of a violin playing when I open the window.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: You… When did you get here? And… what’s with the huge box you have with you?

Sakuya: And… that Santa hat you’re wearing. I haven’t the foggiest where you got it from, but you do look like a fool. 

MC: I’m representing Santa Claus.

Sakuya: To give me a Christmas present? Wait, what is it even?

MC: That’s for me to know and you to find out.

Sakuya: Why do you look so proud about it?

Sakuya: You seem pretty hyped about it. On the other hand, I didn’t prepare anything since I didn’t think much about it.

Sakuya: I’d initially planned to give this to you the next morning or something like that, but… here.

Sakuya: It’s an earring. I thought it’d go well with that dress you always wear during concerts.

MC: I’m touched!

Sakuya: …Uhh, you don’t have to be so happy about it, you know? It’s a little embarrassing…

Sakuya: If I’d known that you’d be this happy about it, then maybe I’d have settled for giving you a set of 10 meal tickets for use at the canteen or something similar.

Sakuya: I was pretty sure that you’d come looking for me anyway. It didn’t really matter where I was.

Sakuya: Although, I didn’t really expect you to come all the way to the highest room in the dorm just to find me.

MC: But I found you in the end, didn’t I?

Sakuya: I suppose you did, but your hand’s freezing cold now.

Sakuya: You made an orchestra with these very hands.

Sakuya: You actually fulfilled your dream. A dream that I thought would die as such.

Sakuya: Although… I suppose some part of me did hold a flicker of hope. That maybe, one day… You would really see it come true.

Sakuya: Because you have strength. You have the strength to go far, far beyond, to somewhere where I cannot reach you.

MC: I’m only as strong as I am because you’re here with me.

Sakuya: I wonder. It’s only because you say such heart-stopping things like that…

Sakuya: Well, since we’ve gotten all the way here, why don’t we broaden our horizons and aim for the world?

Sakuya: I’d like to witness this dream of yours that you’ve shown me a little longer. Together.

Sakuya: Let’s travel to the unknown and see everything the world has to offer!

[スタオケ] La Corda d'Oro Starlight Orchestra Main Story Chapter 1-14 Translation

*Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut *Main story tag will be #Main Starlight

Tomoharu: Piano Quartet No. 2… The piece that initially got denied publication due to issues with the publisher.

Tomoharu: Despite that, as refined as its creator, Mozart, it still managed to spread far and wide, colouring the world with its beautiful tunes.

Hayate: You’ve got quite a good ensemble on your hands.

Hayate: Your group’s still no match for last year’s Starlight Orchestra. But…

Ginga: Come on then, let’s get this started.

Sakuya: I wonder if I can reach the same place you’re aiming for? Starting from this one step—

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

General Ed Girl 1: Wow… I wasn’t interested in classical music at all, but…

General Ed Girl 2: Yeah. I came here because I heard that there was a cool boy…

General Ed Girl 2: But… I think I’m hooked. I might actually come back for round 2 if they’re holding another performance.

General Ed Girl 1: Agreed! We’re definitely coming back for seconds!

Kazuma: Dear me… Looks like it’ll be a while before I can resign from this position.

Sakuya: ……

Sakuya: An Orchestra, huh…

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Tomoharu: The concert was a huge success!

Tomoharu: I don’t think we’ve ever made that big of a crowd that happy to be here.

⊳ Choice: Let’s go have a blast! / Let’s go celebrate.

Tomoharu: Oh, that sounds good! Why don’t we make pizzas or something?

Tomoharu: Kujo-senpai said that he had something on, but I’m sure he’ll return to the dorm at night anyway.

Hayate: What are you even doing here? You’re so rich, and you’re living in Linden Hall?

⊳ Choice: Rich?

Hayate: You aren’t aware? This guy’s the scion of the Regal Group.

Hayate: The very same Regal Group that has a huge hand in electricity, cars, the communications industry and even the music industry. 

⊳ Choice: Be surprised.

Tomoharu: Haha. Did it come as that much of a surprise?

Hayate: Of course. For you to live in Linden Hall, as worn of a dorm as it is?  You’ve got some pretty bad taste.

Tomoharu: How mean~ I do like that dorm, you know.

⊳ Choice: Be unfazed.

Hayate: Well, I guess he does somewhat look, act, and fit into the crowd as a commoner would.

Tomoharu: Now that’s strange. And here I thought I blended in quite well.

Tomoharu: But I’m not lying about paying for my own education through my earnings from my part-time job.

Tomoharu: …I wanted a clean slate, so I left the family.

Tomoharu: And my family didn’t say a word when I left. Apparently, I looked the type.

Hayate: Huh…?

Hayate: Looks like you’ve got your own share of issues too. Are your part-time job earnings enough to cover everything though?

Hayate: …Come look for me if you ever face any trouble.

Tomoharu: Hehe, thank you. You’re really kind, aren’t you, Ryuzaki-senpai?

Tomoharu: I’m fine for now. But even if I do end up short on funds, I can still fall back on the stocks I manage and my investment trust fund, of course.

Hayate: Wha-

Hayate: So you ARE a celebrity! Damnnit, it was dumb of me to even worry about you. 

Tomoharu: You’re really kind, Ryuzaki-senpai. I mean, you even came down to help us out today.

Tomoharu: I’m really glad that everything turned out alright in the end. I really panicked when we found out that Kabayama-senpai had disappeared off to god-knows-where.

Kabayama: …Those sound like empty words to me. You lured me here, didn’t you?

Tomoharu: Huh? What are you talking about?

Hayate: Surely you must have had a hunch, or an inkling, that Kabayama was going to bail.

Hayate: And that I’d come to lend you all a hand in his stead.

Tomoharu: Not really. Hahaha. Well, if he’d gotten over it and played with us, then that's fine by me too.

Tomoharu: I thought that it’d be worth a try since you wouldn’t have joined us if we went about doing it the normal way anyway.

Tomoharu: But you still saw through me, huh. You really do have a sharp discerning eye for things.

Hayate: I don’t think that’s a compliment at all.

Tomoharu: I mean, you do like the Starlight Orchestra, don’t you?

Hayate: Maybe? I don’t know whether I like it or not.

Hayate: …I saw my dreams manifest last year. I thought that perhaps with this group, we could make something amazing out of it.

Hayate: But, it wasn’t that easy. Making a new Orchestra from scratch is no easy feat.

Hayate: I watched as everyone slowly drifted apart, panicked, and struggled… But no matter what happened, I never gave up.

⊳ Choice: We’ll make it succeed this year.

Hayate: I think it’s great that you have the drive to see that through.

⊳ Choice: That must have been hard…

Hayate: What? Are you moved by my story? Not like that’ll make me happy or anything anyway.

Hayate: …Huh? You’ve also experienced an Orchestra you were a part of disbanding?

Hayate: And you’re still trying to be part of an Orchestra again? …I see.

Hayate: I think I see your drive and how serious you are about this. But just a little; just a smidge.

Hayate: I think this Orchestra might be able to stand up to Tsukishiro Kei and Glanz, whom he leads, without being an utter embarrassment.

Hayate: I apologize for underestimating you, (L/n). I never thought that someone from general ed could really do it.

Hayate: But… There might also be countless musicians out in this world, tucked and hidden away, just like you.

Hayate: Normally, I’d laugh it all off, thinking it impossible. But…

Hayate: The performance we had on stage today wasn’t half-bad. I don’t think I’d mind all that much if we did it again.

Tomoharu: Wow. I’ve never seen Ryuzaki-senpai be so honest with anyone before. That’s a rare sight you’re seeing, senpai.

Hayate: Wha- You talk too much!

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Hashizumi: The performance was pretty good. They have the potential.

Hashizumi: But I’d never pegged you for one to ask about an obscure student orchestra.

???: It doesn’t matter where. I will go anywhere, as long as there is the chance that someone with the appropriate amount of strength and worth will appear. Someone that will be of use to Regal.

???: But, this was all just a waste of time. After all, a group led by a loser will only end up losing.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ginga: …Hmm…

???: Kei-sama, regarding next term’s scheduled activity plan—

Sakuya: ……

???: It has been a long time. I heard that you have joined an Orchestra again.

???: I look forward to it.

[スタオケ] La Corda d'Oro Starlight Orchestra Main Story Chapter 1-11 Translation

*Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut *Main story tag will be #Main Starlight *T/N: The “MINE” here is a ref to “LINE” the popular JP messenger app.

Tomoharu: Maybe I should make this Phrase stand out more…

Kabayama: Yo, I heard that you guys had a blast last time!

Kabayama: And I heard that you guys got lots of girls to come? You should’ve called me~

Sakuya: I did send you a message on MINE, didn't I?

Kabayama: Well, I didn’t expect the performance to get that big.

Kabayama: So, aren’t you guys going out to perform today?

Sakuya: Only after practising internally for a while more. We haven’t exactly done a proper analysis of our performance yet.

Kabayama: The general eds are doing an analysis…?

Tomoharu: What do you think, Kabayama-senpai? I think we need more “oomph” for our performances.

Kabayama: Huh? Oh, I… Err…

Kabayama: Isn’t it fine if you stay in tempo? Otherwise, it’d only be unconventional.

Tomoharu: I suppose it’s not good to lay it on thick either. How about this then? After this phrase ends, we can—

Kabayama: (What a pain… Are they taking this seriously?)

Kabayama: Ah, oops. I just remembered that I had something on today. Sorry!

Sakuya: Huh? Wait, but we’re still—

Sakuya: We’re not on the same wavelength, are we?

Sakuya: ……

Sakuya: Well, I guess there’s no need for us to meet up and practise. We need to brush up on our individual parts too.

Sakuya: I’ll be leaving first then.

⊳ Choice: (This can’t go on!) / I need to make an opportunity for them!

Tomoharu: Together? I guess we can. Let’s lock up and head back.

Tomoharu: This might actually be the first time we’re all heading back to the dorms together despite living under the same roof for so long.

Sakuya: You’re always part-timing right after class. Don’t you have work today?

Tomoharu: I do. I’ll be heading out right after I get some food down. I’m on the late shift.

Sakuya: …You have my respect. Isn’t it hard just having to deal with the Orchestra alone?

Sakuya: Nothing special will come out of it just because you know how to play the Cello, either.

Tomoharu: Haha, that’s true. I’m much busier now than I was before.

Tomoharu: But, somehow… I just thought “what if?”

Tomoharu: What if I joined the Starlight Orchestra and actually grew to love music?

Sakuya: Narumiya…?

Narumiya: Oh! Look at the street over there!

Sakuya: I didn’t know that there were still so many cherry blossom trees in bloom…

Tomoharu: I never knew that there was a place like this so close to the dorm.

⊳ Choice: That’s why I wanted to invite you both.

Tomoharu: That does make sense. It’s such a beautiful sight to share with others.

⊳ Choice: I wasn’t aware of it either.

Sakuya: Yeah. I don’t think we ever passed this street either.

Sakuya: ……

Sakuya: It would be nice to play here. Just like the cherry blossoms here… bright and clear…

Tomoharu: It would.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Sakuya: ……

Sakuya: …Sorry about before.

Sakuya: No matter what the reason, a performance that can attract an audience is good.

Sakuya: …But, it just means that we’re not up to that standard yet.

Tomoharu: I was at fault too for being inconsiderate.

Tomoharu: Spreading the word about the Starlight Orchestra to fill the seats in the Auditorium doesn’t mean instant success.

Tomoharu: Our goal is to enter the National Concours after all.

Sakuya: And what about you? Do you also intend to participate in the National Concours?

Tomoharu: I’m game.

Sakuya: …Wow… We’re a true bunch of reckless idiots, aren’t we?

Tomoharu: Now you’ve gone and said it. But, well… I’ll do a better job of it next time.

Sakuya: Huh? Next? Are you planning on doing something again…?

Tomoharu: But, of course! Do look forward to it!

Sakuya: Enough of that. Just practice, for crying out loud.

Sakuya: What? Why do you look so terribly happy about this?

⊳ Choice: I’m glad you’ve both made up with each other.

Tomoharu: Well, it’s thanks to you and your brilliant cherry blossom plan.

⊳ Choice: I’m glad I managed to do something as your Concertmistress.

Sakuya: And you’re oddly serious about it too.

Sakuya: I see, so that was your plan all along. No wonder you dragged this guy along with us.

Tomoharu: We’ve never had a chance to talk to each other like this till today.

Sakuya: We fell for your trap none the wiser. What a cunning Concertmistress.

Sakuya: *shivers* It may be spring now, but it’s still cold out at night. Let’s hurry and get back.

Tomoharu: Why don’t we buy some Oden at the convenience store on the way back?

Sakuya: For a self-supporting student, you really are a splurger.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Nono: Yay~ The members of the Orchestra managed to get through this conflict together~

Nono: Perform more, butt heads more, and deepen your bonds with each other…

Nono: I’m sure you all will turn out to be a brilliant Orchestra~ Keep on keeping on, Concertmistress!

[スタオケ] La Corda d'Oro Starlight Orchestra Main Story Chapter 1-8 Translation

*Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut *Main story tag will be #Main Starlight

Tomoharu: Good morning, senpai. You’re pretty early today.

Tomoharu: I was thinking of nabbing the practice room for myself, so I cleared my morning schedule.

Tomoharu: —Huh? Is that Ryuzaki-senpai over there?

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ryuzaki: Narumiya… I’d heard rumours that you’d gone and joined the Starlight Orchestra. I didn’t believe it at first, but it looks like it’s true.

Tomoharu: Oho? Word travels fast. Any longer and I was planning on going straight to you.

Tomoharu: Why don’t you join us too, Ryuzaki-senpai? We’re aiming to enter the National Concours, so we need members.

Tomoharu: If you, a member of last year’s orchestra join us, then—

Hayate: Cut the crap! I don’t want to hear a word of it from you!

Hayate: Are you trying to imply that last year’s Orchestra is the same as this make-believe of yours?

Hayate: The Starlight Orchestra is an Orchestra made up of people from our school’s music ed department, along with many other talented individuals from the other schools.

Hayate: It was created by gathering a selection of people who were talented and serious about music, aiming to go global… Even so, we messed up, and we failed.

Hayate: So that’s just how hard it is to create a new Orchestra and make it a successful one.

Hayate: And now you’re telling me to join general ed students as they attempt the very same thing we previously did?

Hayate: Don’t make me laugh! How can someone as slip-shod as you lot be called the Starlight Orchestra!?

Hayate: I thought that someone as intelligent as you would know just how much effort we, of the music ed, put in… as well as how serious we are about this matter.

⊳ Choice: Wait!

Hayate: It doesn’t matter what you say.

Hayate: A general ed make-believe group aiming for the National Concours? If that’s not an insult, then I don’t know what is.

Tomoharu: Oh dear… We got instantly shot down. Well, I guess we can’t do it the regular way.

Kabayama: Ryuzaki’s a reaaaal bastard isn’t he?

Kabayama: Yo, are you the Starlight Orchestra’s Concertmistress? Please don’t mistake the rest of the music ed students to be like him.

Kabayama: I think I’m one of the good ones. It’s admirable that you’re creating a new Orchestra.

Kabayama: Ahh, well… I saw you guys performing on the street the other day~

Kabayama: So I thought that maybe I could lend you guys a hand or two.

Kabayama: I mean, what you’re doing is an admirable feat, really! I want to be surrounded by girls like that too~ Have a chance to be popular and all, you know? Hehehe…

Kabayama: Well, I, Kabayama Yuuichi from the music ed department will not be a disappointing recruit! Count me in! I’m in on this ship!

Kabayama: I play the Viola. With me, you guys will now be able to do a String Quartet. Wouldn’t you like that?

Tomoharu: Yeah. It’ll be great if we had a Viola player on board.

Kabayama: I know, right? So arrange the piece for me to stand out more!

Kabayama: Oh, but I’m not as free as you guys from the general ed department, so I can only show up at my own convenience.

Kabayama: And it’ll be embarrassing if you held a concert while the status of your members is in such a sad state, so please do recruit more people.

Kabayama: That’s that then. I look forward to working with you, goodbye.

Tomoharu: If that’s not pressure, then I don’t know what is. But that senpai plays the Viola, so that’s handy.

Tomoharu: Don’t worry about it. I’m just talking to myself. Ohh, right! How about creating a website for the Starlight Orchestra?

Tomoharu: I mean, aren’t we just performing out on the streets without prior announcements or anything?

Tomoharu: I think it’ll be good publicity for us when we hold a concert since there are still people who seem unaware.

Tomoharu: I’m also thinking about starting a social media account where we can post our schedules.

Tomoharu: That way, more people will know that we’re currently looking for members.

Tomoharu: Hehe, alright. I’ll get it set up ASAP. I do hope something good comes out of it!

*Yeah. Uh, well… welcome to my whims again? *Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut

Rei: I knew it. Well, who do you want to spend your time with tonight on this merry Christmas?

[Selection: Haruna Ryusei]

Rei: Brilliant. Who knows, he might even be waiting for you. See you, and have a nice Christmas.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ryusei: Hm? Concertmistress?

Ryusei: Mmhm. I’m going for a little walk. How about you join me?

Ryusei: Hehe. Now, this makes me happy- a Christmas date with the Concertmistress.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ryusei: Look, there’s a huge tree… that looks kinda delicious, actually.

Ryusei: See that red ball decoration hanging from it? It looks like an apple.

MC: Are you hungry?

Ryusei: Imagining the apple made me hungry. Plus, I did work hard during today’s practice.

Ryusei: Since we’re already out here, how about we go for some tea? We can find a shop that sells good apple desserts.

Ryusei: Hehe… Christmas really is fun. I got to have a party with everyone and even got to go out with you.

Ryusei: I probably wouldn’t have known how fun Christmas could be, nor would I have ever seen this scene play out before me if I hadn’t met you…

Ryusei: I heard that Christmas was a special day meant for going out somewhere with those special to you, so I’m glad that we got to go out together today.

MC: I feel the same.

Ryusei: Your smile is strange… It’s as warm as summer and it makes me feel like I could look at it forever.

Ryusei: Somehow… I feel like I’m living a dream right now. I suppose I do understand why everyone thinks of this as a special day.

Ryusei: When I’m with you, I can’t help but feel the fondness I have for you bubble right up.

Ryusei: Thank you, Concertmistress, for enabling me to experience so many emotions.

Ryusei: It’s thanks to you that I found Polaris’ song and my own.

Ryusei: I’m really looking forward to the finals. I want to play and aim to go worldwide with everyone in the Starlight Orchestra.

Ryusei: Listen to my song, for you are the only one I’ll perform for.

Rei: I knew it. Well, who do you want to spend your time with tonight on this merry Christmas?

[Selection: Ryuzaki Hayate]

Rei: Brilliant. Who knows, he might even be waiting for you. See you, and have a nice Christmas.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Ryuzaki’s calling…

Hayate: Hello? Sorry for calling this late into the night. Can you come out?

Hayate: I was thinking that maybe we could drop by the dockyard to see the projection mapping they’ve set up there.

Hayate: Of course, I could just go alone, but I thought I’d ask you if you wanted to join, just in case.

Hayate: As in, I’m just asking, so you don’t have to come if you can’t go out now…

MC: I’m coming along!

Hayate: R-Really!? Alright then. I’ll wait for you along the driveway. Travel safely!

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Hayate: Heeey! Over here!

Hayate: What a crowd. I should have expected it since it’s Christmas, but it took me a while to find you.

Hayate: And I got a good dusting of snow myself. —Achoo! 

Hayate: I’m freezing. If I was to catch a cold at such an important time like this, I…

Hayate: W-What? Why are you staring at my face? …My nose’s red? It’s cold, duh.

MC: You look like Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer.

Hayate: Huh? A reindeer?

Hayate: Why not something cooler than a reindeer…

Hayate: Oh well, but Rudolph’s a great reindeer, no?

Hayate: He worked hard, never gave up, and eventually helped Santa fulfil his mission.

Hayate: Hmm… But when you think about it like that… Don’t you think you’re more similar to Rudolph than I am?

MC: No way!

Hayate: Hahaha. That’s one spectacular pout on your face. I’m praising you, you know? Stop looking so sullen about it, yeah?

Hayate: You’re brilliant. It’s easy to talk big about one’s dreams, but not giving up on them, and actually striving towards them is something else entirely.

Hayate: You’re the Concertmistress, so everyone wants to follow after you. It’s because it’s you that I want to be together with…

Hayate: …Um… No, I mean- I meant that, erm-

Hayate: D-Don’t laugh! Now the mood’s all ruined!

Hayate: …It’s fine for me to say something a little more romantic, don’t you think? I mean… we ARE on a Christmas date.

Hayate: C’mon, quit laughing! Let’s go. The projection mapping’s about to start!

Narumiya’s calling…

Tomoharu: Sorry for calling you this late. Still awake?

Tomoharu: I thought that it might be too late by the time I got home from my part-time job, but…

Tomoharu: It IS Christmas, and well… I wanted to hear your voice, senpai.

MC: Can we still meet?

Tomoharu: Ahh, damn… Are you sure you should be making me this happy?

Tomoharu: You’re way too cute for your own good.

Tomoharu: I’ll be waiting in the kitchen then. No one comes by at this hour, and I do want to see your face.

Tomoharu: I’ll wait for you. Dress warmly.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Tomoharu: Huh? Senpai? That was way too quick a trip if anything. Did you run here?

Tomoharu: And you’re wearing such thin clothes… Didn’t I tell you to dress warmer? How worrisome…

Tomoharu: I was still in the middle of preparations, too.

MC: Something smells sweet.

Tomoharu: Heh, now that sounds like a pick-up line if I’ve heard one.

Tomoharu: Here’s some fondant chocolate for you. Something hot for a night as cold as tonight. Perfect, don’t you think?

Tomoharu: It looks like it’s going to snow. Maybe we’ll get a white Christmas.

MC: But your hand’s plenty warm.

Tomoharu: Haha, looks like I still got exposed after all. I ran all the way here right after I got off from work. I ran— like my life depended on it.

Tomoharu: Of course I did… given everything. You’re real popular with the orchestra, so you might have made plans with someone else for all I know.

Tomoharu: Haven’t you realized? Everyone’s enthralled with you, almost as if they’ve all fallen for you.

Tomoharu: —Just like I did.

Tomoharu: But you’re mine, just for today. Merry Christmas. I’m glad that I managed to wish you a merry Christmas.
