Erwin Motivates Bocchi

Gotoh Hitori

I can't do this... The school festival is too big. Too many people...

Gotoh Hitori

(Maybe I should just disappear...)

Smith Erwin

Gotoh. What do you see when you look at that stage?

Gotoh Hitori

E-Erwin-san?! I see... I see failure and embarrassment waiting for me...

Gotoh Hitori

People laughing, pointing, remembering forever how I messed up...

Smith Erwin

Wrong. That stage is freedom. The same freedom I've fought for beyond the walls.

Smith Erwin

Your music can reach people in ways words never could.

Gotoh Hitori

But what if I freeze up? What if my hands shake too much to play?

Smith Erwin

Those who cannot sacrifice anything cannot change anything, Gotoh.

Smith Erwin

Sacrifice your fear on that stage, and you'll find something far more valuable.

Gotoh Hitori

S-sacrifice my fear... to change my life...

Gotoh Hitori

(Maybe I can dedicate my heart... to the music?)

Smith Erwin

The path to glory is paved with sacrifice, Bocchi the Rock. Now come - your bandmates are waiting.

Smith Erwin

SUSUME! To the stage!
