| *Knock* |
| Misumi | Ye~s. |
| Tenma | “There he is~!” |
| Kazunari | “Hurry, hurry!” |
| Yuki | “Hey, don’t shove me!” |
| Kumon | ? |
| Kazunari | “Ah, long time no see! Do you remember us?” |
| Yuki | “Mukumi was so rude that I’m sure you didn’t.” |
| Tenma | “We’re so sorry about that. Today we brought someone who really wanted to see you, Kumon!” |
| Banri | “Heya~. It’s Bambi~.” |
| Izumi | “Sorry for barging in~!” |
| Kumon | Everyone, Director.... |
| Banri | “Wo~w! You’re sooo cute~! Just like on Insta~. Juko, come over here too~!” |
| Kumon | Ju-Juko... you mean nii-chan...? |
| Kazunari | “C’mon, Juko, tell him.” |
| Yuki | “You’re gonna confess, right?” |
| Muku | J-Ju-chan.... |
| Juza | “I—I, love, you, you know[1].” |
| Kumon | !! |
| Tenma | —pft. |
| Banri | Th-this is.... |
| Yuki | Keep it together. |
| Kazunari | Yukki, your shoulders are shaking too.... |
| Kumon | —What was that.... |
| Muku | Pfft.... |
| Kumon | N-nii-chan, you’re so stiff—ahahaha! |
| Juza | Kumon.... |
| Kumon | Ahahaha...—ha, my stomach hurts. |
| Misumi | Ahaha, that was fun~. |
| Kumon | Yeah! |
| Tenma | Looks like you have enough energy to laugh now. |
| Kumon | Tenma-san.... |
| Tenma | You saw him. Juza-san, who you admire so much—acts like that. |
| Juza | Guh.... |
| Izumi | (Casually ruthless....) |
| Tenma | But Juza-san’s acting made you laugh. |
| “I want to perform ad-libs smoothly.” You don’t need to get caught up with anything difficult like that. |
| As long as you want to make the guests—the audience—laugh happily, you’re set. |
| You joined Summer Troupe because you wanted to make someone smile through comedy, right? |
| Kumon | ...Yeah. |
| Muku | That’s right, Kyu-chan. Acting isn’t like baseball. It’s not about winning and losing. |
| We don’t have to win. We can lose. The only thing we have to think about is making everyone smile. |
| Kumon | We can lose... all we have to do is make everyone smile.... |
| Yeah... I want to make everyone smile. |
| Not just the audience, but nii-chan, Muku, Director, everyone in Summer Troupe, everyone in the troupe—! |
| Yuki | Looks like you’re almost back to your usual self. |
| Kazunari | Kumopi, that’s the spirit~! |
| Misumi | Let’s stand on stage together tomorrow too~. |
| Kumon | Yes! |
| Banri | Well, if things don’t turn out well, I can easily switch in for you. So don’t worry about it and sleep as soon as you can. |
| Kumon | Thanks, Banri! |
| Banri | He’s usually honest with his feelings, huh. Unlike his older brother. |
| Juza | You say something? |
| Banri | Nope. |
| Izumi | (Thank goodness. Kumon-kun looks a lot happier. Now we just have to watch for his fever....) |
| (Please let Kumon-kun’s fever drop...!) |
| |
| Kumon | ...Nn. |
| —Fgah? S-something’s on my face.... |
| Sankaku-kun...? There’s so many...! |
| ...Sumi-san must’ve left them for me. Thank you. |
| Ah, that’s right, my fever.... |
| .... |
| If I still have a fever, then.... |
| ——. |
| .... |
| ...37 degrees? |
| My fever’s down! |
| Sumi-san, my fever—! |
| Tenma | Zzzz.... |
| Muku | Zzzz.... |
| Misumi | Mnn... mnn.... |
| Yuki | Zzzz.... |
| Juza | Gzzzz.... |
| Kumon | Everyone——. |
| |
| Izumi | Your fever has gone down, but you’re not in great shape, so if things look bad you need to let us know. |
| Banri | Well, I can take the stage at any scene. So don’t worry. |
| Kumon | Yeah! |
| Azami | Oi, hurry up and sit down over there. |
| Kumon | ——. |
| Azami | Geez. You look like a zombie. |
| Tenma | You’re a little better than yesterday, but we can’t do anything about how pale you are. |
| Kumon | That’s why I want you to fix that with makeup! |
| Azami | Guess I have to.... |
| I’ll use this just for you. It’s special. |
| Kumon | A brush? |
| Azami | A cheek brush. Sit quietly. |
| Kumon | .... |
| |
| Azami | There, I’m done. |
| Kumon | !! |
| Wow! My face looks completely different! I think I just got better! |
| Azami | That’s just your imagination. |
| Yuki | You’re too simple-minded. |
| Kazunari | But you do look totally different! Azamin, you’re amazing! |
| Muku | It’s really like magic. |
| Azami | Well, it is that sort of brush. |
| Kumon | A magic brush!? Awesome! |
| Azami | I told you it was special. You owe me a big favor now, okay? Make sure you repay me one day. |
| Kumon | Yeah! I will! |
| |
| Kumon | .... |
| Kazunari | Kumopi, you look stiff! |
| Misumi | Here, Sankaku-kun~. |
| Tenma | You brought it all the way out here? |
| Misumi | It’s a lucky charm, after all~. |
| Yuki | That’s fine, but don’t walk onto stage with that on your head. |
| Muku | But it will get attention? |
| Tenma | It’s gonna get too much attention. |
| Kumon | Hehe. |
| Misumi | Ah, you laughed~. |
| Kumon | Sorry for making you guys worry. I’m fine. I can do this. |
| Tenma | That’s a good expression. |
| Kumon | Let’s make a circle! |
| Tenma | We’re counting on you, leader. |
| Kumon | ...When I was a kid, my dream was to take nii-chan to the Koshien. I asked nii-chan to come root for me when I did. |
| When I quit baseball in high school, I thought my dream would never come true. But it continued here. On this stage.... |
| —Guys! We’re going to the Koshien! Fighto—! |
| Troupe members | Yeah! |
