Izumi All right, we'll start from Act 2, Mercutio's scene——. Yuzo Yo, you guys. You're going to watch a play now, so get ready. Izumi Yuzo-san!? Why did you suddenly come? Yuzo The theatre where I teach is holding a performance right now. I'll invite you to watch it for studying purposes. Izumi The theatre where Yuzo-san...? (But it's true that there may be some hints to improve our quality.) Understood. Then, get ready, guys. Izumi (Amazing... The level is too high.) Sakuya This is overwhelming... Tsuzuru As expected of Yuzo's quality... Citron His Yakuza face is not just for show. Itaru It's a different case. Izumi (I wonder if everyone lost confidence after watching this... I'll hold a meeting once we get home.) Izumi Very well, I'd like you to tell me the positive aspects that you got from the play just now——. Sakuya How about putting a daily special element to our play!? Tsuzuru Ah, I think so too. Like adlibs or something. Sakuya I heard that it's something the audience looks forward to! Izumi Yup. That's a nice idea. Itaru If we have spare time, how about doing a street act in the lobby? Citron That's a nice idea too! Tsuzuru I think maybe we can make our performance a little bit more flashy, like using lighting effects. Masumi We can make use of the stage's space more. Tsuzuru Yeah, let's think about our movements more. Izumi You're right. Sakuya Since most of us also play the minor roles, how about asking some people to appear as extras? Izumi Yeah. I'll try asking Manager if we can borrow other theatres' members. Tsuzuru It'd be great if we can do it. Changing clothes is tough, after all. Izumi You guys... You use the play just now as your encouragement very well instead of feeling down about it. Sakuya I want to make our performance better and better. Tsuzuru I want to do all the things that we could do. Masumi I don't want to lose. Citron We have to do our best. Itaru We have to bring perfection. Izumi (Thank goodness. I don't need to worry about them. Everyone has certainly grown up.) All right then, we shall think about how to make use of those ideas! Tsuzuru ..... Izumi Huh? You're still awake, Tsuzuru-kun? Tsuzuru I'm a little bit restless. Izumi I see. Tsuzuru Whenever I close my eyes, the image of the play this afternoon come in my head. Izumi Ah, it was really great. I thought that you guys would feel down after watching that, but I was wrong. Your mentality has also gotten stronger. Tsuzuru No, truth be told, I was scared, and I felt down. But we don’t have time for that kind of attitude, so I pulled myself together somehow. Izumi It means you’ve grown strong enough to pull yourself together. Tsuzuru Well, yeah. But I wanted to do theatre earlier. Then I'd be able to do various things since I had basic experience. Izumi Did you not join a theatre club at your school? Tsuzuru I couldn't join any clubs since I have a lot of brothers. I tried to join a theatre club during my high school days, but I just joined for a while. It was a pretty passionate club, so practice went really late, and—when I came home, my youngest brother had a fever, and it was a big deal... so I thought, no, I can’t do this. Izumi I see... You got trapped by family matters. Tsuzuru Well, that's what they say, but I wonder. Still, if I really wanted to go on, I could just tell them my circumstances and go home early. But I gave up too soon. It was an issue of my determination; I just couldn’t get myself to do it. But I blamed my beloved family. That bothered me for so long. Izumi But didn't you come to Veludo Way and search for a theatre to make that dream come true? Tsuzuru That is, well.... Izumi That's why it doesn't matter even if you started out a little bit late. Thanks to that, you joined this MANKAI Company. I'm grateful for Tsuzuru-kun's family. Besides, if you started doing theatre earlier, you'd join another theatre company. You might not be able to meet everyone here. And Tsuzuru-kun's beautiful original RomiJuli would not be born. Tsuzuru ...I see. You're right. I could write RomiJuli because of the first generation's RomiJuli, and because I met you guys... Izumi Right? You were able to work hard writing the script in that one week because your frustration had banked up. Tsuzuru Haha. Well, that's true. I really thought at that time that if I couldn't write it now, I couldn't write it forever. I was desperate. Yeah, it wasn't pointless.... Izumi You should write from now on too. You have to write for this company. Tsuzuru-kun is MANKAI Company's official playwright, after all. Tsuzuru Official is too much... Izumi It's not! Tsuzuru ....Then, this theatre has to succeed so that I can continue writing. Izumi That's right. We absolutely have to succeed.

Episode 26: On Lost Time

Previous	Main Story	Next
Izumi Next let’s start from Mercutio’s lines in Act 2— Yuuzou Oi, guys. We’re gonna go watch a play now, so get ready. Izumi Yuuzou-san!? What’s this, all of a sudden? Yuuzou The troupe I’m instructing is putting on a performance now. I’m inviting you; come watch and learn. Izumi Yuuzou-san’s troupe...? (He has a point; we might pick up some hints as to how to improve our play.) I understand. Everyone, get ready to go. Izumi (Amazing... their level is far above ours.) Sakuya It’s so overwhelming... Tsuzuru Yuuzou quality at its finest... Citron His yakuza face isn’t just for show. Itaru They’re on a different level. Izumi (I wonder if they’ve lost confidence... when we get back I need to hold a meeting.) Izumi Let’s stick to the positives now, and think about what we can learn from that performance—. Sakuya Why don’t we make day-to-day changes!? Tsuzuru Oh, yeah, I was thinking about that too. Like adlibs. Sakuya I heard some guests saying they came multiple times because they wanted to check those out! Izumi Y-yup. Sounds good. Itaru If we can handle it, we can do street acts in the lobby. Citron That was good too! Tsuzuru We can make the stage effects a little flashier. Their lighting was really effective. Masumi Use the stage more freely. Tsuzuru Yeah, let’s think about our movements. Izumi Sounds good. Sakuya Maybe it’s better to have extras play supporting roles, instead of having troupe members play them all? Izumi Sounds good. I’ll ask the manager if we can borrow some guest extras from different troupes. Tsuzuru That way we’ll have more variety. Plus, changing costumes is a lot of work. Izumi Everyone... Instead of feeling let down, you’re really making this an opportunity to improve. Sakuya I want to make the performance better and better. Tsuzuru I want to do everything I can. Masumi I don’t want to lose. Citron We need to do our best. Itaru We need to make it more perfect. Izumi (Thank goodness. I didn’t need to worry; everyone is growing for sure.) All right, let’s start brainstorming how to incorporate those ideas in our performance! Tsuzuru ..... Izumi Oh? Tsuzuru-kun, you're still up? Tsuzuru I’m just really awake. Izumi I see. Tsuzuru How should I put it—when I close my eyes, the performance we saw today just drifts into my mind. Izumi Ah, it was amazing, huh. I thought everyone would feel let down, but I’m glad you’re all stronger than that. Tsuzuru No, truth be told, I was scared, and I felt down. But we don’t have time for that kind of attitude, so I pulled myself together somehow. Izumi It means you’ve grown strong enough to pull yourself together. Tsuzuru I guess so. But man, I wish I’d started acting sooner. That way, I would have the basics down, and I could try all kinds of things. Izumi You didn't join the theater club at school? Tsuzuru I didn’t have time—I was busy taking care of my little brothers. I did try to join the theater club during high school and became a temporary member, but. It was a pretty passionate club, so practice went really late, and—when I came home, my youngest brother had a fever, and it was a big deal... so I thought, no, I can’t do this. Izumi I see... So you endured it for your family. Tsuzuru Well, that's what I've been saying, but I wonder. If I really wanted to do it, I could've explained my situation to the club, and arranged to go home early, or something. There could've been a way. But I gave up so easily. It was an issue of my determination; I just couldn’t get myself to do it. But I blamed my beloved family. That bothered me for so long. Izumi But you were looking for a troupe on Veludo Way because you wanted to make your dreams come true, right? Tsuzuru Well, yeah... Izumi Then, your timing just changed a little—but that’s not a problem. Because thanks to that, you joined this company. So I'm grateful to your family, Tsuzuru-kun. If you’d started acting earlier, you might've joined a different troupe. You might not have met everyone here. We wouldn't have this wonderful Tsuzuru-kun-original RomiJuli. Tsuzuru ...Yeah. You’re right. I wrote that RomiJuli because the Original Spring Troupe's RomiJuli existed—because I met everyone.... Izumi Yes. Because your feelings had been bottled up for so long, you could write that script in a week. Tsuzuru Haha. That's true; at the time, I felt like, if I don't write it now, I’ll never get a chance again. I see, so it wasn't all a waste..... Izumi You can write from now on as well. We need you to write for us. Tsuzuru-kun, you're our company's representative playwright. Tsuzuru Representative—you're exaggerating.... Izumi Not at all! Tsuzuru ....Then, if I want to keep writing, I need to make this performance a success. Izumi Yup. We’ll make it a success for sure.
