Unlike Chapter 7, Beat and Motion chapter 8 heavily focuses on Nico rather than Tatsuhiko. In chapter 7, Tatsuhiko made some new friends/ rivals trying to become a step closer in accomplishing his dreams. Nico was signed by a record label so this chapter is going to focus more on that.

Nico's dream

Beat and Motion chapter 8 begins a dream involving Nico and her mom. Nico’s mom wanted her t grow up so they can both work together so many people can listen to Nico’s songs. Though Nico had the dream, she forgot about it when she woke up

Nico meets Kaoru

Waking up, she got a message from Kaoru Takashima from Maharoba Records. He was hoping they chat in a café before heading to the studio. Nico got to talk to Tatsuhiko on the phone and she was so nervous. Tatsuhiko thinks she shouldn’t be nervous or worried because she’s amazing. He also advised her to not drink because of how she gets when she’s drunk.

On arrival, Nico describes her cloths and wonders the personality of the person she’s about to meet since she hasn’t been with a lot of people and hasn’t met anyone new since Tatsuhiko. Nico gets to meet Kaoru and the first impression she gets is how professional Kaoru looks. Reading this I can confirm Kaoru looks super professional from her clothing style to her facial gesture. They decide to have lunch before heading to the studio on Kaoru’s request.

What Kaoru thinks of Nico's music talent

Kaoru is going to be Nico’s manager under this Maharoba Record label. Kaoru wants both of them to discuss Nico’s music while they wait for food. It’s revealed by Kaoru, Nico has released 68 songs so far in her life and most of her recent songs are in retro eighties “city pop” style that’s in trend. Kaoru believes those songs will do fine especially with her wide vocal range and sophisticated chord progressions but Nico’s obtuse of poetic expressions, rhythm and polarizing arrangements might be problematic in the future.

Tokyo Uma

Nico’s heart is pounding out of her chest because she’s used to being praised and found it nerve-wrecking to hear critiques. Kaoru went on saying she listened to Tokyo Uma which was the song Nico sent to her and she was convinced by Nico’s talents. Kaoru wants to make Tokyo Uma to Nico’s debut single along with her top 5 songs with the most plays.

Kaoru also spoke about making some changes to the song including its lyrics although she also respects Nico’s desire. She believes there are many people who don’t want to pander with the masses and Tokyo Uma being different might be special hence she believes not all songs should be marketed towards the majority. To some extent, this also applies to songs in real life

Nico's dream might be halted

Kaoru wants Nico to top charts and have hit songs because she believes Nico has the talent to do so and she wants to be the person to get her there. Nico also agrees to Kaoru. Nico wants to become a big star, want lots of people to listen to her songs and wants to become “a world class artist” but she knows she can’t get there on her own hence she needs the help of others. Nico is so happy as she’s one step closer to accomplishing her dreams but unfortunately, it’s revealed the record label has decided to hold off on any new debuts.

Closure

I absolutely loved how relatable this chapter was. Well this entire manga is very relatable but when Nico was so happy about herself becoming one step closer to her dreams just to be disappointed later on, i could relate. That’s how real life works but we just keep pushing and going forward. It won’t be easy but nothing comes easy.
