【TSUMUGI】: A bus guide, you say....
【YAMATO】: And over there we can see Takanashi Productions.


【TSUMUGI】: An appearance at "STAR CAMP in TOKYO" has been decided!! I'm thinking that we'll reveal the new single for the first time there, as well!

【YAMATO】: Oh? We'll be on a pretty big stage, huh.

【TSUMUGI】: That's correct!
Our work from several months ago has finally born fruit and so a chance has come around!

【YAMATO】: You've been working hard without onii-san knowing, huh, manager.
Then, we'll have to work hard so we don't mess it up.

【TSUMUGI】: It's thanks to everyone's recent activities!
All of our efforts up until now have paid off and proven it!
That IDOLiSH7 is the real thing!

【YAMATO】: We're all a bunch of problem children, though.
But at the same time, I'd like to think that we're about as strong as well-beaten iron.

【TSUMUGI】: It's the ultimate iron!

【YAMATO】: Ahaha, thanks.
【YAMATO】: The group who sang the theme song for one of Nagi's favorite animes will be at this "STAR CAMP in TOKYO".
Nagi'll be happy.

【TSUMUGI】: That's correct!
This year, several well-known music groups from various genres will be gathering.
【TSUMUGI】: Sogo-san was also happy because one of his favorite rock bands would be coming.

【YAMATO】: Sogo'll probably be able to watch calmly, but don't you think Nagi might start jumping around and making a scene?

【TSUMUGI】: I, I'll be sure to stop that if it happens.
Yamato-san, you're always looking after the other members, but are there times where you take specific care around a certain person?
[1]: Who is the most dangerous?
[2]: Who is the most dependable?
[3]: Who is the most difficult to control?



【TSUMUGI】: Who is the most dangerous?

【YAMATO】: Geee———————eez! They're all dangerous!
It depends on the situation, but Riku and Tama are the most nervewracking.
【YAMATO】: Well, I'll just have to put on an incredibly assertive and individualistic face, and do my best bus guide impersonation today, too.

【TSUMUGI】: A bus guide, you say....

【YAMATO】: And over there we can see Takanashi Productions.



【TSUMUGI】: Who is the most dependable?

【YAMATO】: It depends on the situation, really....
When there's specific details that need to be done exactly right it's Sou, but when it's something that requires energy, it'd be Mitsu.
【YAMATO】: Somehow, Ichi's level-headed in his own right, but since he's still a student I don't like relying on him too much.
【YAMATO】: Well, I'll just have to put on an incredibly assertive and individualistic face, and do my best bus guide impersonation today, too.

【TSUMUGI】: A bus guide, you say....

【YAMATO】: And over there we can see Takanashi Productions.



【TSUMUGI】: Who is the most difficult to control?

【YAMATO】: I can't control a single one of them............

The one who does the most unexpected things is Nagi, maybe—. Tama, too—.
【YAMATO】: Well, I'll just have to put on an incredibly assertive and individualistic face, and do my best bus guide impersonation today, too.

【TSUMUGI】: A bus guide, you say....

【YAMATO】: And over there we can see Takanashi Productions.

t/n:

1. generally I've been making do with translating single syllable expressions literally (so あっ becomes ah!, えええ becomes eeeh, and ほー becomes hoh), but I'm not sure what the rough equivalent for へー would be in english.... if I write heh it looks like yamato is laughing when it's more like he's whistling

writes "*whistles*"

2. I think it's explained a bit better in riku's indoor fes ch2, but basically tsumugi sent starcamp a CD sample several months prior, and only just recently did idolish7 receive the invitation to perform there! so she's saying that they probably received the chance because their recent activities have been Very Noticeable, rather than because of the effort she put in. hence why she's so excited, probably!

3. I'm..... not really sure..... what yamato means with the iron line.... I feel like he's trying to say that yeah it's been rough with the schoolyard special, but what hasn't killed us has made us stronger, and because we've faced so many problems, we are now as strong as iron and nothing will bring us down? yamato please

but I think that's the general gist of it. the well-beaten part might actually mean more that they're iron that's resistant to beatings, though!

4. I was going to say something like "I can't believe yamato pays so much attention to the members that he knew that nagi'd been excited about star camp, this must be what the title meant by yamato's powers of observation, what a great dad/leader/older brother, さすがですね," ——

but then I realized nagi probably has been bouncing off of the walls with excitement and so -not- knowing he was looking forward to it would have taken a horrendous degree of ignorance. anime power 2 strong

5. I keep putting off translating sougo's Music Lover chapters but I also keep forgetting that, like, rock is one of his favorite genres? I swear he's like "yeah I like classical, and rock, and contemporary music, and dj events" and I'm like please slow down and pick a genre I can't keep up

idk it's one of those things that you wouldn't expect from his appearance and general mannerisms I guess LOL

6. in the original text yamato says "sougo" instead of "sou" like he normally would when he talks about sougo staying calm and I feel like I should put a [sic] there LOL. he describes nagi as "a type of fan who yells and dances at pop concerts, etc." — it's got the word otaku in it so it's not a very nice word.....

7. I'm not really sure what it is yamato is saying he relies on mitsuki from, the first translation that jumped to my mind was "shouting match", but that's.... a bit aggressive....... it's pretty consistent that mitsuki is the most helpful when it comes to being aggressive and assertive and all around active, though, so that's probably what yamato's referring to!

8. I was hoping yamato would shoot down tsumugi's "who is the must difficult to control" with "I don't try to control anyone stop quoting yaotome sr. at me" but instead he just sounds like a very exhausted dad who's spent the past half an hour picking up discarded ousama pudding cups from around the living room

9. the bus guide line is a mess because yamato refers to "an incredibly self-centered and assertive face" — so I can't tell if he's referring to the other members (as in trying to control a bunch of people who are all very assertively doing their own thing), or referring to himself playing the part of the bus guide and thus needing to be incredibly self-centered and assertive...... I went with the latter because it was easier to phrase but my decision does not reflect my views on bus guides at all, I promise

he literally says "I'll do my best as if I've become a bus guide"
