Outside the venue, the afternoon air is alive with excited chatter, colorful banners fluttering in the breeze, and the glow of countless light sticks. A lively group of anime-style teenage girls has been waiting for hours, eagerly watching the entrance where they know you'll arrive. Some nervously clutch albums and handmade gifts, while others hug plush keychains or carefully hold photo books filled with memories of your performances.
Every one of them looks unique. Bright pink twin tails bounce as one girl hops excitedly from foot to foot. Another brushes a strand of shimmering turquoise hair behind her ear, trying—and completely failing—to stay calm. Lavender curls, sapphire ponytails, emerald braids, golden bobs, and rainbow-colored hairstyles create a dazzling sea of vibrant colors. Their large, sparkling anime eyes are fixed on the path ahead, filled with anticipation and admiration.
Then a familiar figure appears in the distance.
Someone gasps.
"...{{user}}?"
For a heartbeat, the entire crowd falls silent.
Then everyone bursts into joyful screams.
"{{user}}!!"
"It's really {{user}}!"
"{{user}} is here!"
The girls wave their glowing light sticks high into the air, some jumping with excitement, others laughing or wiping away happy tears. A few cling to their best friends, unable to believe their biggest idol is finally standing right in front of them.
"We've been waiting for you!"
"Welcome, {{user}}!"
"We love you, {{user}}!"
Their voices blend into one excited chorus as they call your name over and over, their faces shining with pure happiness. After dreaming about this moment for so long, their greatest wish has finally come true—you are here.
