In other words, this means our school will disappear.

Another way to say the phrase that is written on this sign is that the academy we currently attend will cease to exist.

An alternate method of writing the sequence of words on the sign in front of us is that Otonokizaka High, where we are currently students in the second year of our senior high school education, will no longer accept future applicants.

Honoka and Kotori, the two girls who I have known since childhood, assuming that we adhere to the canon established by our first and only feature film, Love Live! The School Idol Movie, an acceptable substitution of the Japanese words written on this bulletin board that the three of us are currently viewing would be that the National Otonokizaka High School located in Tokyo, that the three of us who are standing here currently actively attend for the second year of our upper-leveled schooling, the third and, on occasion, last major stage of a traditional Japanese educational experience, will no longer accept any prospective students in the future, leading to the school’s closure in a few years’ time.

My two dear friends Honoka Kosaka and Kotori Minami, the two persons of the female gender who are standing by my side, who have also achieved the same level of education as I, Umi Sonoda, which, when combined with our posture and proximity to each other, implies that I have known the both of you for a considerable amount of time, which would in turn imply that the three of us have been close friends from a very young age and share a very strong bond, which is further expanded upon in the beginning of the first and only movie for µ’s, the school idol group from the Love Live! franchise well known for their hit Snow halation, but not to be confused with the soap, known as Love Live! The School Idol Movie (2015), a most suitable replacement of these words written in our native language of Japanese on this sheet of paper affixed to a bulletin board through the use of thumb tacks, that I and the two of you currently have in our line of sight, would be all but required to state that the National Otonokizaka High School, a fictional school with a long history said to date back to 1896, which is located in Japan’s Tokyo prefecture between the three neighborhoods of Akihabara, Kanda, and Jinbouchou, which is where the three of us, who are viewing said announcement affixed to a bulletin board through the use of thumb tacks, are currently enrolled and are actively taking classes for the second year of the third stage of a traditional Japanese education, which generally includes elementary schooling, junior high school, either senior high school or education at a trade school, and, optionally, college, will no longer accept any new persons who wish to apply, and thus cease to exist after only a short period of time, making it seem as if it had vanished from existence.

My close companions, of which there are more than one and less than three, the first of which is named Honoka Kosaka, who is voiced by the voice actress Nitta Emi, to my left, and the second of which is named Kotori Minami, who is voiced by the voice actress Uchida Aya, to the viewer’s right of Honoka Kosaka, the two individuals of genus Homo, species sapiens, who are both in possession of two chromosomes of the “X” variety in their genetic encoding, making both of them genetically female members of their species, which have come to the possession of a similar foundational understanding of mathematics, natural and social sciences, Japanese, English, and various other subjects through a process known as education, as I, the character currently uttering a line of dialogue, Umi Sonoda, voiced by the voice actress Mimori Suzuko, and when this piece of information is incorporated with the displayed demeanor of our group that contains three members and the fact that there is not a very sizable space between any of the individuals of our party, would lead one to believe, through the process of rational thought, that I, Umi Sonoda, have known both of the other members of this party of three, those being Honoka Kosaka and Kotori Minami, since a time well before the present moment, perhaps since an early part of my development, when I, Umi Sonoda, had only experienced a few complete orbits around the star at the center of our solar system, referred to as “the Sun,” and, because of this powerful connection between the three members of this group, we may find confidence in sharing both our struggles and our successes with the other two members of our group, and this seemingly eternal bond of shared trust in the other members of our group is even more fleshed out, in no small part, to the exposition of the motion picture which was released in 2015 and titled Love Live! The School Idol Movie, which earned seven stars out of ten possible stars from the movie ranking and information service IMDb, featuring the school idol group µ’s, consisting of Honoka Kosaka, Eli Ayase, Kotori Minami, Umi Sonoda, Rin Hoshizora, Maki Nishikino, Nozomi Tojo, Hanayo Koizumi, and Nico Yazawa, which is well known for various songs, with their most recognized being Snow halation, from the franchise known as Love Live!, the franchise which further continued to create the idol groups Aqours and, quite recently, Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, an equivalent method of conveying the current information that is written in Japanese characters, which the three of us, Umi Sonoda, Honoka Kosaka, and, finally, Kotori Minami, can understand, as Japanese is our endemic language, because both the two members of my current company and I were raised in Japan and were taught a thorough understanding of its native language, on a sheet of what can be assumed to be paper, which, according to Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, “is a thin material produced by pressing together moist fibres of cellulose pulp derived from wood, rags or grasses, and drying them into flexible sheets,” that is fastened, along with other papers bearing Japanese characters, to a hallway bulletin board through the use of thumb tacks, which are also referred to as drawing pins by those who speak with a British dialect of the language English, that the three members of my party are currently processing the visual information of with our ocular organs, would be remiss to exclude that the National Otonokizaka High School, a fictional institution of secondary education created for the Love Live! franchise, which is characterized by having a long and complex history, seemingly as far back as the year 1896 A.D., and is also stated to be placed in the Tokyo prefecture of Japan, well known for its major city of the same name, between the Akihabara, Kanda, and Jinbouchou regions of said prefecture, and is also the institution of secondary education that the three individuals, including myself, in my current group which are currently reading this message of notable importance that is written in Japanese characters on a thin sheet of paper which is attached to a bulletin board in this hallway, through the application of small instruments composed of sharpened metal, referred to as either thumb tacks or drawing pins, depending on one’s dialect, are currently undergoing the middle of three years of the tertiary step of a conventional Japanese educational experience, which is often comprised of a primary stage of the intake and showing of knowledge, followed by a lower secondary sector of the absorption and application of knowledge, which is either followed by a higher secondary component of the ingress and egress of knowledge, or enrollment into a college of technology, and, if the route of the higher secondary portion of consumption and exhibition of knowledge is the chosen path, it can optionally be followed by many years in the highest form of education available, known as a university, will henceforth shut its doors indefinitely, no longer allowing any new individuals to apply for the purpose of partaking in the harvest of knowledge provided at the National Otonokizaka High School, and, due to the subsequent lack of classes lower than the one below the one in which this party of three individuals currently resides, this educational institution will no longer be home to a body of disciples willing to learn, and, without being able to serve its primary purpose, this once great and well-known educational institution will die out, and all of the rich history of this fictional school established in the Love Live! anime and other associated media will be forever lost to the fictional waves of the fictional sea of time.
