| Izumi | Nice work, everyone~! The RomiJuli re-run was a huge success! |
| Tsuzuru | It was a good idea to do adlibs in the regional dialect, after all. |
| Sakuya | The audience really loved it! |
| Citron | Local references are always a good go-to. I included all sorts too. |
| Itaru | “Local references” mean something else if we’re talking about Citron’s country…. |
| Masumi | Nobody gets them. |
| Izumi | Sakuya-kun, you’ve completely settled in as leader. |
| Sakuya | I had a lot of fun playing Romeo for the first time in a while. I felt more in sync with Masumi-kun than during our first performance, too—. |
| Masumi | ...I didn’t think so at all. |
| Sakuya | Eeh!? |
| Izumi | It’s true, your small exchanges were better than during our first run! |
| Sakuya | Really!? I’m so glad. |
| Masumi | I worked hard for you. |
| Tsuzuru | Your attitude is as quick to flip as ever! |
| Citron | In an instant. |
| Izumi | By the way, Mizuno-san came to watch, too. He filled out his survey from corner to corner. |
| Tsuzuru | Ah…. haha. It’s a little creepy to think that Mizuno watched RomiJuli…. |
| Izumi | (That’s what he says, but he looks pleased… He wouldn’t have written RomiJuli if he hadn’t met Mizuno-san, after all.) |
| Tsuzuru | But you’re right, Director. Since it’s the same play, it’s easy to tell how much we’ve changed, and that’s fascinating. |
| Itaru | The parts that tripped us up last time went smoothly this time |
| Tsuzuru | Yeah, yeah! |
| Citron | I’m not quite satisfied. |
| Tsuzuru | Ah, I gave you fewer lines back then to match your level of Japanese, after all, Citron-san. |
| Izumi | It means everyone here has grown that much. |
| Citron | I want to do a more channeling role! |
| Sakuya | Channeling? |
| Masumi | Challenging? |
| Tsuzuru | I see. |
| Izumi | We need to start thinking about the next performance soon. |
| Citron | I’m looking forward to the new performance! |
| Itaru | Hype. |
| Izumi | So there’s something important I need to talk to you about. |
| I discussed this with Sakyo-san, Tsuzuru-kun, and Yuuzou-san already, but we’re thinking of adding one new member to each troupe starting with Spring Troupe’s next performance. |
| Citron | It’s a new face!? |
| Masumi | I don’t need any more rivals. I’m the only one you need. |
| Izumi | That’s not what I’m talking about! |
| We’re thinking that by adding more members to the main cast, Tsuzuru-kun can do more with his scripts, and it’ll reinvigorate the troupe. |
| Sakuya | I’m looking forward to getting new members! |
| Itaru | Are we holding auditions again? |
| Izumi | I considered it, but I think we’re going to scout people through connections this time. |
| According to Sakyo-san, now that we’re somewhat well-known, it’s better for us to know the backgrounds of people we’re dealing with. |
| Tsuzuru | If we hold auditions and we’re swamped with applicants, we won’t be able to handle them all. |
| Itaru | That’s what you think, but then we get 0 applicants. |
| Sakuya | This is bringing back all sorts of memories…. |
| Izumi | I-I think we’ll do better than that! W-we’d get at least six! |
| Itaru | How humble. |
| Tsuzuru | That’s still pretty sad. |
| Izumi | Well, anyway, that’s the deal, so if you can think of anyone good, let me know. |
| Sakuya | Yes! |
| Citron | I’ll look for someone who won’t overlap character types with me~! |
| Tsuzuru | I think it’d be harder to look for someone who would overlap with Citron-san. |
| *Phone rings* |
| Izumi | Huh? Someone’s phone is ringing? |
| Sakuya | Isn’t it Masumi-kun’s? |
| Masumi | …. |
| Izumi | Aren’t you going to pick up? |
| Masumi | I don’t know the number. |
| Izumi | Is that so? |
| Itaru | Director-san, will the new troupe member join the dorms? |
| Izumi | It depends on the person, but if they want to join, then yes. There’s room for one more person, after all. |
| Itaru | A double? What a pain… My castle is under attack… |
| Izumi | Please don’t be selfish! |
| Itaru | Then I’m requesting a shut-in who won’t leave the house. |
| Izumi | He wouldn’t be able to stand on stage! |
| Tsuzuru | If bothers you so much, why don’t you find someone who won’t be a pain to room with? |
| Sakuya | Even if he’s not a shut-in, there might be someone who wants to commute from home! |
| Masumi | Someone who’s the same type of otaku as you. |
| Itaru | Good point…. |
| *Phone rings* |
| Izumi | Masumi-kun, your phone is ringing again. Why don’t you pick up? |
| Masumi | I only pick up your calls. |
| Sakuya | So that’s what it was!? No wonder you never pick up your phone when I call you, Masumi-kun. |
| Tsuzuru | At least pick up Sakuya’s calls! |
| Izumi | Masumi-kun, please pick up calls from people you know…. |
