To distract himself from things going on with Fujimiya, Hase goes to karaoke, bringing Shougo with him.

長谷(はせ):
「ほらほら翔吾(しょうご)(なに)()れて!」
“Come on, come on, Shougo! Put something in, too!”
「じゃなきゃ(おれ)連続(れんぞく)(うた)っちゃうぞー!」
“Otherwise, I'll just keep singing one after another!”
Literal: “If not, I'll end up singing continuously!”

Key Points

1連続(れんぞく)で = “continuously”
  • Here 連続(れんぞく) means Hase would keep singing songs with no break.
  • The particle marks the manner or condition, so 連続(れんぞく)(うた) is “sing continuously” or “sing one song after another”.
2Casual contraction: (うた)っちゃう
  • (うた)っちゃう is a spoken contraction of (うた)ってしまう.
3じゃなきゃ = “if not”
  • じゃなきゃ is a casual shortening of じゃなければ.
  • It connects directly to the previous line.
4Sentence ending nuance: ぞー
  • The ending ぞー makes the line sound emphatic and teasing, like Hase is half-warning and half-joking.

Vocabulary

(Something)

(なに)か means something or anything. It can also introduce an uncertain question, as in “Is something wrong?”

(I)

(おれ) means “I” or “me”. Men commonly use it in casual speech, and it sounds rougher and more masculine than (わたし) or (ぼく).

(Continuation)

連続(れんぞく) means a sequence or continuation without interruption.
