Transcript:
[Lesson Studio]
“Is everyone enjoying themselves?”
“I’m Ichika Hoshino, the guitarist and vocalist for Leo/need. Thank you for coming to watch our show.”
“Um…”
“That’s my best shot at a greeting for the real thing, but what else should an MC talk about…”
“Oh, my hobbies?”
“Hobbies, huh… I don’t really have any in particular…”
“Ah, I do listen to Miku songs a lot. I really like them.”
“…When do I listen to them?”
“Whenever I’m free… ah, and I also listen to them when I’m feeling down or lonely, too. When I do, they help me calm down a little.”
“Also, when I first got my guitar from my dad, I wondered if I could play Miku songs on it, so I started practicing them.”
“Ah… now that I think about it, it was at that moment when my dad told me how I got my name.”
“My parents both like the same song, and that was how they met.”
“Then they fell in love and later had me…”
“They met over a song, and were blessed with a child. So for that reason, they gave me the name Ichika.”
[Note: Ichika’s name (一歌) literally means “one song”]
“My dad told me how he hopes that I, too, can someday meet someone precious to me through a song.”
(I guess Saki, Honami, and Shiho are kind of like that to me…)
“Fufufu…”
“Ah, it’s nothing.”
“Now, what else should I talk about…?”
“…What my future goals are? Hmm, let me think…”
“After starting high school, I wasn’t able to find what it is that I want to do, and just sort of passed each day without a real purpose…”
“But then I was able to start a band with Saki, and then Honami and Shiho joined us, too.”
“A lot of stuff happened between us before that…”
“But now we spend our days together as four childhood friends. It’s a lot of fun, and makes me very happy.”
“So I want to do my very best for this band that the four us have created.”
“…So, um, how was that?”

Message from Ruriko Noguchi
“I am honored to be able to participate in such a wonderful project. I hope you all look forward to learning the stories behind each of these characters, from the internationally loved Hatsune Miku and her delightful friends to the original characters created in this project.”
“The character whom I voice, Ichika Hoshino, is a very kind-hearted girl who always thinks about her friends.”
“I will do my very best to convey her feelings to everyone through my voice-acting and singing.”
“Please look forward to Project SEKAI!”
