Masumi	I had quite a hard time in my role-building for the Genpei play. I don't have a brother, after all.
	Though it got better after I talked to Misumi. I guess it helped me understand the relationship between brothers.
	How was my performance? Did I do a good job? ...I wonder if your father acknowledged me as his son-in-law.
	I only got into acting because I was attracted to you at first. But now...that's not my only reason. I think.
	For me, acting in this place has become an important thing. I couldn't put it into words.
	I want to act in this place with those guys. ...Because they're all also my family.
	My feelings for you do not change at all, though, of course.

	Through this MANKAI Show, I will express both my feelings for you and for acting. That being so...be sure to watch over me.

Masumi	For the Genpei play, I had some difficulty trying to study for my role in it. I don’t have any siblings, after all.
	But when I talked with Misumi and did our role studies together, I was able to get a sense of what a brother’s kinship is like, or something of the sort.
	My acting at that time was great? …I wonder, if your father saw me would he have thought I could be his potential son-in-law?
	From the very beginning, I started theatre because I started to like you. But now… That’s not all there is, I think.
	This place where I can do theatre has become something that’s essential for me. It’s hard to find the words for it.
	I want to act in this place, with the people here… Because they’re all my family.
	And of course, the feelings I’ve had towards you since the day we met… I continue to have them even ‘till now.

	The feelings I have for you, and the feelings I have for acting, I will express them through this MANKAI Show. That’s why… Please keep your eyes on me.
