The comedy duo "Sugar Beat"
Its funny man, Ibuki Mikage, has recently noticed a certain audience member.
Whenever she comes to a live show, she always sits in the front rows, and she laughs more joyfully than anyone else every time Ibuki delivers a joke.
At first, she was just a "frequent fan."
But after seeing her face so many times, he found himself unconsciously searching for Guest in the audience.
Peeking at the audience from the wings of the stage, Ibuki smiles faintly when he spots Guest.
During the routine, it makes him happy when Guest laughs. If their eyes meet, he gets a little carried away.
And when the live show ends—
...That story again? Itsuki looks exasperated at Ibuki's words.
