Kogane PSSR11 - Memorial, with you

"I'm having a blast. I don't want to return home."

1 - A summer sensation like no other.
Kogane is being photographed for an upcoming commercial. A flashback occurs. The theme of the commercial she'll be part of is "The youth and one summer of love." Producer said the timing is perfect for the release of such a product. The slogan of the commercial is "I don't want this summer to end." As an added bonus, Kogane is also asked to record a vlog. If consumers get to know Kogane's public and private life, they may become more familiar with the brand of new carbonated drinks they'll release. "It should be a topic of conversation above all else," said the director. Kogane agrees, but points out that she is still a rookie when it comes to vlogs. The producer offers to help her with anything she needs. Back to the present, Kogane is trying to record for the first time and is having some difficulty. After a few minutes, she gets the hang of it. She asks the producer what kind of video he would like to see, since she's sure people would love it too. The option wheel appears.

Something showing behind-the-scenes work.

Since it's a world well known by Kogane but not by normal people, it would be helpful. If there is a place where she needs permission to record the video, he'll take care of the negotiations to allow it. Kogane is grateful for this.

The things Kogane enjoy

That way, people will know Kogane is having fun at work, and they'll enjoy it more. Besides, Producer loves when Kogane is enjoying herself, since that energizes him all the time. Kogane then says that she'll be smiling and by Producer's side so he's happy the whole day.

Something that Kogane would want everyone to see

Something wonderful or delicious that would surprise people. Present something that touched her heart. Kogane understands, and she talks about how the egg she used to cook with ended up being a double-yolk egg. Producer admits that it is a good luck charm.

2 - Uneasy air travel.
Kogane and the producer are buying food. They're surprised that it's a special sales day. Since they came by car, they can buy a lot because the producer will carry it. Back in the car, Kogane is happy with all the food she bought. She'll use it all to make lunch for tomorrow. She'll make one for Producer too, as thanks for going with her to buy food. Producer is worried about that, but she'd rather cook everything quickly. It would also help with the vlog about how she makes her lunch. So, that's killing two birds with one stone.The next morning at the airport, Kogane mentions that the travel season must have started because so many people are walking around. The producer tells Kogane to stay close so that she doesn't get lost in the crowd. As he says this, he bumps into a traveler. In typical Japanese fashion, they apologize to each other. After this, the producer gets too close to Kogane, and they have a close contact. He apologizes for it. Kogane tells him not to worry, saying to herself that she doesn't mind when the producer gets that close to her. Now, inside the plane, Kogane is excited for the recording that will take place on a beautiful beach. The producer tells her to sleep so that she will have plenty of energy for the recording the next day. Kogane tells the producer to take it easy, too. The producer decides to take her word for it, and the option wheel appears.

I'll listen to some music

Kogane agrees to do the same. The producer asks her to recommend some music. Kogane shows him some songs she has been listening to lately. They are all songs that the producer has been waiting to hear eventually, he wonders if they have similar tastes. Kogane wonders the same and asks the producer to recommend some songs to her too.

I'll go to sleep early to save my strength.

Kogane tells him that she will be quiet so that he can sleep in peace. The producer tells her not to worry because being near her is cozy and comforting, like being with family. Kogane is surprised by his words and asks if he truly cares about her that much. No answer sadly since the producer was already deep in sleep.

I'll do some paperwork

Kogane is not surprised by the producer's hardworking nature. He says that he is doing it now so that it will be easier to clean up the gaps later and spend more time with Kogane. Kogane is thankful and wonders if she could do something like that for the producer, too.

3 - The heat that doesn't cool off at sunset. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
A staff member hurries toward the producer and tells him that they want to do a rehearsal to check if the equipment is working. However, the actor who was supposed to be with Kogane in the commercial isn't coming. They ask if the producer could take the actor's place. The producer accepts, and the animation begins.

The actor (P): These summer vacations are almost over
Kogane (No accent): That's right. When are you going home?
P: I will depart tomorrow night.
Kogane: Huh, That's too quick... A...anone
P: Yes?
Kogane: Can we stay together a little bit, until the sun sets? ( I wish I could say that I don't want this summer to end)
"Cut," said the staff. They thanked both Kogane and the producer. Kogane asks for the camera to record her vlog, the producer said he would make sure to record it. Kogane is happy playing with white sand. She takes a deep breath, enjoying the view of the blue sea and the feeling of the wind. Suddenly, something catches her attention: a piece of blue glass. Then, a green one. "If I collect enough of them, I can make something," said Kogane. "They'll sparkle in the sunset sea."
Kogane: "A little bit more..."
The producer was about to speak, but he stopped once he realized that he was recording this for her vlog.
Kogane "Have ye seen the sunset wi' me this near?"
The producer noticed that Kogane's face looked a little red. It must be because of the setting sun, he thought.
Kogane "If we keep going on like this, I'll hae sae much fun that I'll no want tae come home."
The producer wondered what Kogane had said, since the sound of the waves was too loud. He hoped that, at least, the camera had captured her words better than his ears had.

4 - The heart flutters in the waves.
Kogane is at an event where the host and the public are presenting her as the image character of the newest product. The host asks if she has tried the new product, to which she responds, "Yes. It's refreshing yet sweet. The taste of youth and love." The host talks a bit about the campaign she's part of before announcing a round of questions from the participants of the event. Kogane will do her best to answer their questions. The host selects someone from the third row.
The first question is, "Is there any place you would like to visit this summer?"
Kogane says that since she already filmed the commercial in a hot place, she wouldn't mind going to a cooler place, like a mountain resort in the summer. She would even cook with local products there. The host likes that Kogane can enjoy summer anywhere. He then picks the next question from someone in the front row.
The second question was, "I love you so much, Kogane! Glad to be here today. What do you do to be so pretty and beautiful?"
Kogane is embarrassed by such a showcase from a fan. She answers that she doesn't really do anything special, but she makes sure to eat and sleep well. The host knows these are basic things, but they're the most important for health. He then picks a question from someone in the back.
The third question is, "Have you ever had a moment where you didn't want it to end and wanted it to stay like that, just like in the commercial?"
Kogane said that during the filming of the commercial, she didn't want the moment to end. She wanted to preserve it and keep it safe. For her, it was very important.
The producer is listening to all of this behind the scenes. He praises Kogane's talent and lively attitude. He's happy that she and the other participants are enjoying themselves. But that moment Kogane didn't want to end. It happened during the commercial filming on the beach. The producer wonders, "At what exact moment did it happen?" At this point, the option wheel appears. There's a twist, though, since the answer takes the producer back to the past, back to the beach.

Filming the vlog in the ocean?

The producer tells Kogane it's time to return to the hotel. Kogane asks if they can walk around the beach a little more. The producer agrees, since you don't always get the chance to work at a resort like this. Kogane agrees, but adds that it's important to spend time with those you care about, too.

Was it during the rehearsal?

Kogane is surprised, as it's not often that she get to walk with the producer on the beach like this. The producer apologizes, saying that it must have been hard for Kogane to see him as an actor sharing a scene with her. Kogane doesn't mind, though, since it was the producer after all. The producer then says that it must be easy when it's with someone you know. Kogane mentions that she didn't mean it like that.

Spending time by the sea?

Kogane is happy to be near the sea because it makes her feel at home. The producer asks if that's what it feels like to be born near the sea. Kogane agrees, but she also admits that she feels at home when she's near the producer. The producer admits that it's a nice thing to say about him. Kogane believes that the producer is as thrilled as she is about all of this.

True end - The summer won't end. It doesn't want to end.
Kogane is still filming her vlog. This time, she's in the kitchen talking about the steps she takes when cooking dishes and side dishes. Producer is watching the videos and enjoying the food that Kogane made for him earlier that day. He's thinking about how much fun she's having with these videos. The commercial was well-received. Producer then watches the next video... It's the one they recorded at the beach, the one producer filmed. There, Kogane talks about how she thought she wouldn't make it to the beach this summer, but thanks to the commercial, she did. She's thankful for that. She's looking for seashells at the beach while she's off duty.
Kogane "If we keep going on like this, I'll hae sae much fun that I'll no want tae come home."
"Oh, so that was what she was saying, then." said Producer "Back then, Kogane looked very...~"
"Producer" Kogane interrupted by entering the office, he hadn't heard her come in because he was very focused on the video. Kogane saw that he was checking her vlog. The producer answered that the response had been great, and that people liked Kogane's natural looks. Kogane was glad to hear that, as well as to see the producer so focused on the videos.
"Well, there's that, too. Kogane was so beautiful at the beach that I couldn't take my eyes off her."
Kogane is surprised by this comment. Even though the producer filmed it himself, it feels really different after being edited. Embarrassed, Kogane demands the producer to not say anything else. She changes the topic, asking about her next work. The producer mentions that she has received many new offers. She's happy to hear this because, after all, her and producer's summer is not over yet.
