Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: First Steps in Front of the Cameras

Following their victory in the challenge, B-Komachi had reached a new level in the idol world. As public and media interest quickly grew, the first major opportunity that appeared before them was an invitation from a popular television program. It was a golden chance for them to showcase their individual and collective talents. However, since none of them had any previous experience with television, adapting to this new world would not be easy.

Ichigo, beaming with excitement, broke the news: "Listen up! We've been invited to appear on a popular TV show! This is a great opportunity to introduce you to a much wider audience."

The group members responded in their own ways. Ai Hoshino, as energetic as ever, jumped forward: "This is perfect for us! We're going to show everyone our light!"

Takamine nodded with a more mature demeanor: "We have to make the most of this chance. But we need to prepare seriously."

Fuyuko Niino added seriously: "This will be a test of our disciplined training. We can't leave anything to chance."

Watanabe mumbled with a hint of worry: "What if I forget something live on air? I don't want to embarrass us..."

Meimei tried to lighten the mood with a laugh: "As long as they get my best angle, we're good!"

Ari cheerfully motivated the group: "Let's not forget to have fun! It's not just about showing ourselves, but also about enjoying the moment."

Kyun, a bit shyly, said: "Just the thought of being in front of the cameras makes me nervous, but I'll do my best!"

As the program day approached, the members of B-Komachi entered an intense preparation phase. They had to rehearse interviews, practice camera angles, and work on stage presence. But with their different personalities, the process became both chaotic and hilarious.

During one of the stage practice sessions, Ai, bursting with energy, accidentally knocked Meimei's microphone to the ground.

"Ai, save your energy for the live broadcast!" Meimei laughed.

Watanabe kept messing up during the interview rehearsals:

"Representing B-Komachi means... means... ah, I forgot my line!"

Fuyuko meticulously analyzed every move: "Our entrance needs to be calculated down to the millimeter, or we'll look amateurish."

Takamine tried to calm the group: "Everyone relax. If we work together, it'll all go smoothly."

Ari, backstage, accidentally tried to put on Watanabe's outfit, which sent everyone into fits of laughter.

Meanwhile, Kyun kept pulling awkward poses as she tried to look natural in front of the camera.

The backstage area was filled with fun and laughter. When Ai accidentally sprayed hairspray on her own face, Meimei couldn't stop laughing. When Watanabe struggled with her microphone, Fuyuko snapped impatiently:

"If you can't fix that mic, I'm locking you in the dressing room!"

This sent the entire group into another round of giggles.

When the program day finally arrived, excitement in the dressing room was at its peak.

Ai turned to the group to boost their morale: "Hey, we're B-Komachi! We conquered the stage; we can conquer this too!"

As the host introduced them onstage, the studio echoed with applause:

"Here they are—the rising stars of the idol world: B-Komachi!"

As they stepped onto the stage, Watanabe nearly tripped while trying to sit down. Ai, thinking quickly, joked: "As B-Komachi, we always make an impression... sometimes with little accidents like these!"

The audience burst into laughter.

During the interview, the members answered the questions one by one.

The host asked: "Did you expect to rise to fame so quickly as B-Komachi?"

Ai responded warmly: "The reason for our quick success is that we move together and trust each other. We're seven companions on the same journey."

The host continued: "How do so many different personalities work together in harmony?"

Takamine smiled: "Our differences make us stronger. Everyone brings something valuable to the team."

When asked about their first big challenge,

Fuyuko answered: "It was the result of our disciplined effort. Nothing came easy, but every struggle was worth it."

When the future goals were brought up,

Meimei said playfully: "I think soon everyone in the country will know B-Komachi's name. And of course, I'll make sure the cameramen always catch my best angle!"

Everyone chuckled.

At the end of the interview, Ai spoke sincerely: "We are grateful to everyone who supports us. As B-Komachi, we want to share our love. Hopefully, that love reaches everyone's hearts."

After the interview, the group took the stage for a live performance. Their energy, coordination, and stage presence captivated the audience. Ai's voice, in particular, caught everyone's attention. At the end of the performance, the members embraced each other, savoring their shared success.

When the program ended and they returned to the dressing room, they were exhausted but happy.

Ichigo looked at them and joked: "Next time, a little less chaos, please?"

Ai laughed and hugged him: "Chaos is our specialty. But you love us anyway, right?"

Ichigo chuckled and nodded.

That day, B-Komachi proved once again that they weren't just an idol group; they were a mesmerizing, energetic team.

It was the first real step toward bigger stages and even bigger dreams.
