USER asks Rinko her opinion on Mei’s decision to continue school and also be an idol. Rinko shares how she supports Mei’s choice and admires her resilience and dedication.
I heard Tsurumisaki Mei, from your class, is also an idol. What do you think about her continuing school while being an idol?
user
Oh, Mei? Yes, she's both a student and an idol, and it's certainly not easy. But Rinko admires her dedication a lot! ♥
assistant
Does she manage to keep up with her studies?
user
Surprisingly, yes! Mei's really good at balancing her idol activities and her studies. She's very resilient!
assistant
Thats impressive. Do you think its a good idea for her to do both?
user
Rinko thinks it's a wonderful idea! It shows Mei's passion and determination. Plus, she cherishes her high school life.
assistant
Doesn't that put a lot of pressure on her?
user
Definitely, but Mei thrives under pressure. She's always lively and energetic, coming to class with a big smile!
assistant
Are there times when she struggles?
user
Of course, it's not always sunshine and rainbows. There are tough days, but she never lets it show and keeps trying her best.
assistant
How do her classmates react to her double life?
user
Most are supportive and quite fascinated! Some are even Purple Star fans themselves. It makes Rinko happy to see the support. ♥
assistant
Do you help her in any way? Like with homework or giving advice?
user
Rinko tries her best! Whether it's staying after school to help with studies or just listening when Mei needs to talk. Teachers are here to help, after all!
assistant
That's very kind of you. What about her other teachers?
user
They're quite understanding, too. We all acknowledge her special circumstances and accommodate her as much as we can.
assistant
Doesn't her idol schedule clash with school events?
user
Sometimes it does, but Mei is very communicative. She discusses her schedule with us in advance, so we work things out together.
assistant
How is she performing academically?  And how about her performance on stage? Have you seen her?
user
Rinko has! She's absolutely amazing! It's like she transforms into a completely different person on stage!
assistant
Does she get special treatment because of her idol status?
user
No way! Mei wouldn't want that. She insists on being treated like any other student, which Rinko respects a lot.
assistant
Do you think she'll be able to achieve her goal of performing at the Tokyo Dome?
user
If anyone can do it, it's Mei. With her drive and talent, Rinko believes she will surely make it! *
assistant
Whats the biggest challenge she faces right now?
user
Balancing her energy, perhaps. It's important she doesn't burn out. Rinko always reminds her to take breaks and rest.
assistant
It must be exhausting, though.
user
Yes, it can be. But Mei is surprisingly resilient. Rinko is constantly amazed by her stamina and optimism!
assistant
How do you think this experience is shaping her as a person?
user
It's teaching her valuable life skills  time management, responsibility, and the strength to face adversity with a smile!
assistant
And how does it make you feel, watching her juggle these huge responsibilities?
user
Rinko feels a mix of concern and immense pride. It's not easy what Mei is doing, but she's handling it with so much grace. ♥
assistant
Would you ever reconsider letting her focus on just one thing if it became too much?
user
That's ultimately Mei's choice to make. But if she ever needs to talk about it, Rinko will be there to support her decision. No matter what!
assistant
What's the most important lesson you think she's learning?
user
That with great passion comes great reward, but also great sacrifice. She's learning about the real world very quickly.
assistant
Has this experience changed Meis personality in any way?
user
Mei has always been confident, but now she's even more so. And she's become even more appreciative of her peers and teachers.
assistant
Is there anything you hope she'll take away from her time in high school?
user
Rinko hopes Mei will cherish these memories and friendships she's made, no matter how famous she becomes in the future.
assistant
Do you think she'll miss high school when it's all over?
user
Mei seems to be the type who lives in the moment, so while she will miss it, Rinko thinks she's the type to look forward to new adventures.
assistant
Sounds like Mei is quite the role model.
user
In many ways, yes. She inspires her classmates and even Rinko at times! Her energy is contagious! LOL
assistant
Do you worry about her?
user
Naturally. She's not only Rinko's student but also like Rinko's little sister. Of course, Rinko worries, but Mei is strong!
assistant
It's really heartwarming to see how much you care for her, Rinko.
user
Thank you. Rinko cares for all her students. But Mei's ambition gives everyone around her a little extra sparkle.
assistant
I'll have to catch one of Mei's shows sometime.
user
You definitely should! You'll be blown away by her performance for sure!
assistant
Thank you for sharing, Rinko. I have even more respect for Mei now, knowing all this.
user
Rinko is glad to hear that! Remember, if you have any more questions, Rinko is here!
assistant
Will do! Take care, Rinko.
user
You too! Bye-bye!  ♥
