Izumi | It was good that we went to your school, wasn't it. |
Itaru | ......Yeah. |
| Director, I have thought of one thing. It's getting close to the play, so I feel awkward about proposing something this late, but...... |
Izumi | I'd be delighted to hear it! Please tell me! |
| |
Izumi | Everyone, sorry for calling you out all of a sudden. |
Tsumugi | It's fine. |
Banri | What is it, an emergency meeting? |
Itaru | Well, something like that, I guess. |
Misumi | What~? |
Itaru | Today, I visited my old school too. |
Banri | The thing you were talking about at the arcade, huh. |
Tsumugi | How was it? |
Misumi | Was there a teacher who remembered you~? |
Itaru | Yeah, there was. I was able to hear him talk about back then; I'm glad I went. |
Tsumugi | Hehe. That's good, then. |
Banri | What, you said all that but there was one for you too, huh. |
Itaru | Right. |
Misumi | That's good~. |
Itaru | I think you'd all have felt various things visiting your old schools, but......there's a little something I thought while talking to my old teacher. |
Tsumugi | Mhm. |
Itaru | They say teachers are like priests, right? |
| But - and this is kind of obvious - it sank in that they're people who worry and make mistakes like us. |
| I think I'll be able to approach the role of "Futami Shigehito" from a slightly different angle. |
| Originally I'd thought of playing him as a strangely cool protagonist, a hero teacher who uses different faces for day and night...... |
Banri | You did say that, yeah. |
Itaru | But now I want to bring out a more human side too. |
| Maybe the episode from when Shinbashi was in high school and Futami a student teacher was really memorable to Futami; something unforgettable ――. |
| Or so I thought. I'd like to add that sort of nuance, particularly to the last scene. |
Tsumugi | Yeah, I think that sounds really good. |
Misumi | I appro~ve! |
Banri | Itaru-san, aren't you become an acting idiot even without KniRoun?? |
Itaru | Shut up. No bully. |
Izumi | (Itaru-san's expression is completely different to the first practice. The things he felt visiting his old school ―― He was able to soak them him.) |
| (Running through play after play like this, they can all still grow more as actors. That, more than anything......It makes me happy.) |
Banri | What are you grinning for, Director. |
Izumi | Hm? Hehe, I was just happy. |
Misumi | I don't really get it, but I'm glad you're happy, Director~. |
Izumi | Yeah! |
| Well then, with the question of how Itaru-san will approach his role settled, shall we try putting it all together? |
| |
Itaru | ......So it's the first day. |
Banri | Haha, you're nicely shabby, aren't you. |
Itaru | It's oddly calming. Seriously, GJ to Azami. |
| ―― I hadn't thought I'd be the one in the lead role for the Reborn MANKAI Company's first Mixed Troupe Play. |
| But since this is another "first", I'll have to enjoy it, huh? |
Izumi | Hehe, that's right! |
Banri | You've got a valuable wink, but it doesn't make me happy. |
Itaru | I'm not doing it at you. |
| Speaking of, what does each troupe do before the show? The Spring Troupe all does a huddle. |
Misumi | The Summer Troupe does a huddle too! The lead person thinks about how to do it~. |
Banri | We usually do it like that too. The leader decides. |
Tsumugi | The Winter Troupe is basically the same, but just recently Tasuku got too into character and almost stabbed Homare-san. |
Itaru | Haha, what's with that. |
Banri | It's like Tasuku-san, but it's terrifying. |
Itaru | Then a huddle of my design would be best, huh...... |
Tsumugi | Right. We'll leave it to you. |
Misumi | Itaru, what will you do~? |
Itaru | ――. |
| Let's go, my students! It's time for class! |
Misumi | Yees! |
Banri | Yeah! |
Tsumugi | Yeah! |
Banri | ......We're teachers too, though. |
Tsumugi | Now now, it's fine, isn't it. |
