Tomoya introduces Michiru to the others as the circle’s music person. However, not only does Michiru express no interest in otakudom, she starts trying to talk Tomoya out of the circle, saying, “Stop chasing after these nerd dreams, and grow out of this otaku stuff and face reality!” In spite of that, Tomoya, who is captivated by Michiru’s talent, desperately begs her to join the circle, but she says…

“Our band members are all serious about achieving the same dream. We’re not like the members of your circle.”
