The chosen words of the first topic by Tamaki-san were “favourite” and “memory”.

The next in line is Senbongi-san and her topic was “sad lines/speech”.

The episode when she waved her hand in the recording studio had gotten cheers from the stage members along with applause.

The last topic for the roulette talk was “emotional memory” by the MC Suzushiro-san.
