In June, when the early summer weather feels pleasant and the greenery of the roadside trees becomes even more vibrant, the dance club students were gathered in the communication room of Niigata City Banda High School, surrounded by soft sunlight and a refreshing breeze. As intense gazes focused on the projected screen, the announcement was made: 'Niigata City Banda High School Dance Club... has been selected to perform at TGC Niigata!' Furthermore, when a surprise video message from Dream Ami played, the classroom erupted in gasps of surprise, with some students even shedding tears!
