| Izumi | I'd like to start the read-through from today onwards. Have you guys read the script? |
| Yuki | Yees. |
| Tenma | Of course. |
| Misumi | What's a script? |
| Muku | It's the screenplay that Tsuzuru-san has written the other day. |
| Kazunari | Sumi, you're playing the genie. |
| Misumi | I'm the spirit of the lamp~. |
| Kazunari | That's right. |
| Izumi | (Will they be all right...) |
| I'd like all of you to try grasping your roles while reading the lines. |
| |
| Well then, let's start from the beginning--. |
| Yuki | "Tonight, too, I shall tell you a story. Yes, it is one of the thousand stories..." |
| Izumi | (This time we'll be performing a comedy play with Arabian Nights motif.) |
| (The story is centered around two childhood friends, Scheherazade and Alibaba, who are searching for an oasis...) |
| Tenma | "Tell me, Scheherazade! Where is this oasis located at!?" |
| Yuki | "Then, I shall tell you the story. Once upon a time, in a faraway land..." |
| Tenma | "The introduction is taking too long! Explain it in three words!" |
| Yuki | "Aladdin, a magic lamp, the genie." |
| Izumi | (Yuki-kun is still fumbling with his lines, but Tenma-kun has already gotten into the role.) |
| (It seems he has no problem acting out the comical parts. He really is skilled...) |
| |
| Kazunari | "Aladdin...? How does that have anything to do with me?" |
| "Well, whatever. You're cute. Can you tell me your name?" |
| Izumi | (Kazunari-kun's personality is similar to Aladdin's personality, so he pulled it off well. I guess the fact that Tsuzuru-kun wrote the story with the actors in mind is helping.) |
| |
| Misumi | "I'm the genie of the lamp. I can grand three of your wishes. Master, what are your wishes?" |
| Tenma | "Gaaah! My hip is on fire!" |
| Kazunari | "You can tell by just looking, right!? Do something about that witch and serpent!" |
| Misumi | "The witch and the serpent, huh. That will cost you two wishes, are you sure about that?" |
| Kazunari | "Yeah, whatever, just do it!" |
| Misumi | "Your wish is my command." |
| Izumi | (Misumi-kun is doing well, too. His eccentric personality fits well with the genie.) |
| Tenma | "You're Sinbad! How can you not know where's the treasure at!" |
| Muku | Uhh... |
| "Grow up, Alibaba. There's no such thing as legendary paradise. You can't be a millionare in just a day. You have to work hard." |
| Tenma | ....What's that? This is not a school lesson where you just have to read the lines aloud. |
| Muku | So, sorry! |
| "Grew, grow up--." |
| Ah, I'm sorry. |
| Tenma | *sigh*... |
| Yuki | Can you stop interrupting so often? Annoying. |
| Tenma | Whose fault do you think it is! |
| Muku | I'm, I'm sorry.... I'm just nothing but a fool and a wasted toilet paper... |
| Tenma | I didn't say anything like that! |
| Yuki | No one say anything like that. |
| Tenma | Let's do it again. |
| Muku | "Grow up, Alibaba. There's no such thing as lefendary--." |
| Tenma | Legendary. |
| Muku | Sorry! |
| Tenma | *sigh*... |
| Izumi | (Uhhh, it's easier to make mistake in this kind of atmosphere.) |
| |
| Yuki | "I was able to postpone it until now, but I can't do anything more. The king is--." |
| Tenma | The king will. |
| Yuki | I messed up. |
| Tenma | Haaaaaaah. |
| Yuki | Stop with those haah, haah. Are you a pervert or something? |
| Tenma | What did you say!? |
| Izumi | Okay, okay, let's continue. |
| Tenma | --. |
| |
| Izumi | And that's the end. Well, at least we manage to read it all. |
| Tenma | This is ridiculous. |
| Do you think you can perform with me onstage like this!? Especially you, Sakisaka! Put yourself together! |
| Before you can get into character, read the lines properly--. |
| Izumi | Tenma-kun, stop! It's impossible for everyone to be in the same level as you at the start. |
| Tenma | --tch. |
| I can't deal with this. I'm going to practice alone next time. |
| Izumi | But Tenma-kun, you're the leader. You have to be able to lead all the members to become better actors. |
| Tenma | --. |
| Muku | He left.. |
| Yuki | He's just being dramatic, leave him alone. |
| Muku | Sorry... it's my fault, isn't it? It's because I'm just a small blockhead who is nothing but a sake lees in a miso soup... |
| Kazunari | Nobody mention anything like that, Mukkun! Even sake lees is useful, you know!? |
| Muku | Ah, you're, you're right. Sorry.... |
| Yuki | You say weird things sometimes, Muku. |
| Misumi | Cheer up, Muku. I shall give you this triangle~. |
| Muku | Eh? This small eraser? Thank you. |
| Izumi | (I wonder how Tenma-kun is right now. It'd be good if he's calm down a little bit.) |
