Watch here!
Reodo: Bonsoir, Minettes. I'm Lumiere's vocalist, Reodo.
Noe: I'm Lumiere's leader and bassist, Noe.
Simba: And I'm the guitarist, Simba!
Thomas: I'm the drummer Thomas.
Reodo: All the members are participating this time.
Simba: Actually, it's been a while since we've last been here together, huh?
Simba: Plus, a video broadcast is kind of exciting.
Noe: I get that! Minettes, can you see us~?
Reodo: …
Noe: …
Reodo: Hey. We don't have much time. You can chat later.
Thomas: That's right.
Thomas: Then Reo, please say something to Minettes and our audience.
Reodo: …… Okay. The 8th survival season has begun, and we—Lumiere—are the top batters once again. We started working on the new songs before that announcement had been made.
Reodo: We'll deliver the best songs for our Minettes and the CR audience, so I hope you can look forward to them.
Noe: Since the survival started and all, I figured I'd motivate the members, so we went down memory lane in Blitz Akasaka. [1]
Noe: We performed as an indie band for the last time inside that building, and we also held a concert there, so it's a special place.
Noe: We also took a picture together!
Simba: Shame we can't have a concert there anymore, but that doesn't make it any less special for Lumiere.
Simba: It’d be nice to hold more concerts to see both Minettes and the audience.
Simba: I want to go on tour too. My ambitions, hopes, and dreams are endless!
Thomas: Same for me.
Thomas: Just like that, we all shared our plans for the future with each other while working on music.
Thomas: We might have made the staff worry because of how much we yelled at one another in the meeting room everyday, though……
Thomas: But if you don't take music that seriously, you won't be able to make something you can truly call the best.
Simba: That's how it always goes for us, though.
Simba: But from an outside perspective, you wouldn't be able to tell whether we get along or not.
Simba: That and, our prince is quite the perfectionist.
Simba: You won't believe how hard it is to get him to greenlight anything.
Reodo: It wasn't just me. Weren't you guys mercilessly nitpicking my song draft?
Thomas: It's the Lumiere code to re-do everything as many times as it takes until we're all good with the result.
Noe: We'll show you that these songs are more amazing than anything we've released before.
Noe: So believe in that we'll make it work no matter what!
Simba: Noe’s being surprisingly leader-like……
Reodo: He is.
Thomas: Yeah.
Noe: How mean!! I'm always super serious, you know?
Reodo: ……
Reodo: This is a little anticlimactic, but we're out of time.
Reodo: We intend to win the survival again this time.
Reodo: Well then, a bientot.
