Rules: There's a total of 8 competitors, after every round of competing, the singer with the least votes will get eliminated and someone else will take their place to compete as a competitor. After 16 rounds, an "elimination round" would be held. During the elimination round, the eliminated singers and non first-stage competitors need to compete and the ones with the higher ranking get to compete in the "official round". First-stage competitors can skip the elimination round because they had survived 16 rounds. Official round will decided who's the final first, second and third place by their votes.
The lights' glow grew brighter and brighter as they finally bursted into a spotlight on the middle of the stage, showing a brown gravity-defying hair.
"If the rules are complicated, it's fine because you will get it as you read along, I am Sawada Tsunayoshi, your MC and," Tsuna said with a smile,"One of the 8 competitors."
"I bet you're all waiting so I would make you wait longer, haha," Tsuna said jokingly to ease the tension, then he looked around,"Thank goodness Reborn isn't around to see me joke like that." Tsuna closed his eyes and took a deep breathe, he opened his eyes,"Let's welcome our first competitor, Chrome Dokuro with her song, Setsuna no Kioku (The Instant Memory)!"
The stage went black.
"Hitomi wo tojite toikaketemita itsumademo kienai yume no ikisatsu."
And music started.
"Kagami ni utsuru maboroshi wa tada shizuka ni kanaderu melody."
The lights focused on Chrome.
"Munesasu sabishisa no naka akogare wa tsunoru hibi.
Setsuna no kioku tobikoeteyukitai ima wa.
Hitotoki no kaze ga nagareteku hoshi ga.
Hakondekureru no kirameki nagara.
Kasuka ni kikoeru ano yasashii koe.
Machi no hi mo hohoenderu.
Hitotoki no kaze mo yami ni saku hana mo.
Hikari kakushiteru tokimeki nagara.
Kasuka ni kikoeta natsukashii koe.
Mado wo ake miagetemiru mou ichido.
Kokoro no koe ni kizuite hoshii itsumademo samenai yume wo miteita.
Hitomi ni nokoru omokage wo mada hisoka ni irodoru melody.
Munesasu kurushisa no naka tashikana chikai wo te ni.

Hitotoki no kaze ga nagareteku hoshi ga.

Hitotoki no kaze ga nagareteku hoshi ga.
Hakondekureru no kirameki nagara.
Kasuka ni kikoeru ano yasashii koe.
Machi no hi mo hohoenderu."
Chrome's soft voice echo through the stage.
"Hitotoki no kaze mo yami ni saku hana mo.
Hikari kakushiteru tokimeki nagara.
Kasuka ni kikoeta natsukashii koe.
Mado wo ake miagetemiru mou ichido."
Chrome finished her song with a bow.
"Ah, I think I'm in trouble, Chrome's performance was so good!" Tsuna commented and looked at the card he was holding and read exactly what it said,"Next up is pineapple-head with his song, The Kufu Pineapple Fufu!"
"My name isn't pineapple-head, it's Rokudo Mukuro and the song isn't The Kufu Pineapple Fufu, it's Kufufu no Fu!" Mukuro appeared, irated.
The lights slowly faded away without warning.
"Hey, what are you doing! I'm not ready yet!" Mukuro panicked.
Tsuna tried stifling his laugh.
The music started.
"Masaka boku ga kono te de kimi ni fureru nante ne.
Kimi wa sono amasayue boku ni nottorareru.
Goran boku no odd eye obieta kao utsusuyo.
Aete ureshii desu yo nante beta sugi desu.
Saa boku to keiyaku shimasenka?

Kufufu kufufu kufufu no fu.

Rakunishite agemasuyo kimi ga negai kou nara.
Isshun de ii desu ka.
Oya oya towa ni desu ka.
Nakunante riyuu ga wakaranai.
Boku ga warui mitai desu."
Although the laugh was creepy, everyone seem to enjoy it since it is addictive and catchy.
"Kufufu kufufu kufufu no fu.
Kizukasete agemasu yo kimi no unmei wo.
Step wo fuminagara koware hajimeru.
Kanashii me no kimi wa boku no itoshii omocha.
Desuka ne.
Saa boku to keiyaku shimasenka?
Kioku nakusu sono mae ni.
Kufufu kufufu kufufu no fu.
Odorasete agemasu yo kiri no carnival.
Jyunsui de utsukushii sekai ni nareba.
Ayatsurareta kimi wa boku to eien no samba."
Mukuro finished the song by blowing a kiss.
Tsuna sweatdropped,"Ah... Ahem, anyways, next competitor will be my so-called right hand man, which I have no idea what that means but, let's welcome him and his song, Hashire (Run)!"
Gokudera Hayato appeared on stage and snapped his fingers.
Music started as soon as he did so.
"Tesaguri de susumu kedo kakeashi de sugiru hibi.
Samayoi tsuzuketa kurayami ni wa.
Dare mo keseyashinai ashiato ga aru yo.
Hokorashiku sotto hoshi no you ni sotto.

Sono te wa ima mo eikou wo machiwabiteru.
Tachidomaru na kowagan na ore no hou dake mitero.
Dare ni mo jama sasenai."
Gokudera conquered the stage with his powerful voice.
"Furikaeru na hashiru nda nani mo tashika janai kedo.
Akaku moeteru honoo ga terasu saki he.
Tachiagaru nda sakebu nda massugu ore dake mitero.
Namida no ato ni hi wa noboru darou."
Gokudera ended his song with a 90 degrees bow to Tsuna.
Tsuna, once again, sweatdropped,"Wah, that was a really powerful performance!"
Gokudera immediately smiled when he heard Tsuna complimenting him. Good thing Tsuna didn't saw him or else he would have to sweatdrop again.
"Next up is Yamamoto Takeshi with his song, Ame No Message (Rain's message)!"
The music started with a cheerful melody.
"Kyuuni furi dashita ame ga.
Machi wo yasashiku someru.
Hokori ya iya na koto mo.
Arai nagashite kureru.
Hare no hi mo areba sou dayo.
Ame no hi datte aru yo.

Kotoba wa iranain da tsuta watteru kara.
Ima magari kado magaru sono tochuu.
Kowaku mo naru sa minna onaji.
Utsumu ka nakute iinda mae ni susumu nara."
Even if the stage is full with tension, Yamamoto's peaceful voice seem to calm it down.
"Hora nakitai toki wa nakitai dake.
Namida kareru made nakeba ii.
Tsuyogara nakute ii sa tsuyoku nareru kara.
Hora aitai toki wa hitomi tojite.
Minna no egao ukabe reba ii.
Kotoba wa iranain da tsuta watteru kara."
Yamamoto finished the song with a big grin.
"That was amazing, Yamamoto!"
"Haha, thanks!" Yamamoto said, scratching his head sheepishly.
"Herbivores."
"Hieeee!" Tsuna shrieked, surprised by Hibari's sudden appearance.
"I want to get this over with already, herbivores," Hibari hissed with annoyance.
"Hieee! Ok! Hibari Kyoya with h-her, I mean, his song, Horizon!"
"Hn."
The music started.
"Kumo no kirema sasu hi wo kono te de mata nigirishimeteiru.

Sousa suki ni saseyashinai."
"It w-was really good, Hibari-san." Tsuna stuttered.
Hibari hn'd indifferently and left the stage.
"L-let's continue," Tsuna cleared his throat,"Ahem, next singer will be Lambo with his song, Lambo-san no yabou (Lambo-san's Ambition)!"
"Haha! Lambo-san will obviously win! Music, START!" Lambo yelled, appearing out of nowhere.
The music started with a joyful childish melody.
"Ore chino atama nani haite ru.
Ame tama candy, chocolate.

Lambo's cute voice travel through the stage.
"Sekai seifuku Reborn shun satsu.
Mou ore chinikanau yachi inai.
I-pin …
Gokudera …
Shishi babaa …
Ima ni mite iro mousugu ore chi no tenka.
Reborn nante but toba su."
Lambo finished his song, however, right after that, a voice erupted.
"EXTREME! Tatoeba me no mae ni taoreteru hito gaite! Te wo sashi no beruno ha touzen de! Sonna chiisana kotoga itsuka! Ookinawa ni natte yukeba ii! Hoka no yatsu to onaji youni dekinakute ii!" Ryohei started singing without music.
"Hieee!" Tsuna panicked,"U-Um, please start the music!"
The music started on cue.
"Muzuka shiku kangaetemo kanarazu asu wa yatte kurun dazo.
Ganbarette kotoba wa shoujiki suki dewanai.

Hareta sora miagete kyokugen wo oukina koe de."
Ryohei finished his song with a "EXTREME!"
Tsuna sweatdropped,"Um... That was Sasagawa Ryohei with his song, Hareta Sora Miagete (Looking at the Sunny Sky)!"
"Ah," Tsuna sighed,"Everyone did an amazing job! Why am I the last one, I have so much pressure!"
"I just hope I'm not last..."
Tsuna took a deep breathe and...
The music started.
"Oi, kora mattetara!
Hashiru no ga nigate demo seiseki ga imaichi demo.

Slowly, Tsuna seem to gain back his confidence and stop being nervous.
"Kyou ga dame demo ashita ga aru sa.

Miagereba oretachi no sora.

Tsuna took a deep breathe again,"Ok... Now it's your turn. Please vote for 3 of your favorite performance."
Tsuna smiled while waving his hand,"Bye, bye!"
