SakuyaIt’s here at last, the day of the Animal Show.
IzumiSakuya-kun, are you nervous?
SakuyaJust a little. I’m just so excited about being able to act together with everyone that I can’t help it!
TsumugiPeople from all countries are coming to spectate too.
KazunariOkay, let’s put our all into entertaining everyone! With that said, huddle up!
BanriAs if we even have time to huddle up.
JuzaSeems like it’s go time already.
KazunariEh!? If I miss my chance today, it’s going to be another four years till the next show~!
TenmaCome on, let’s go!

Kazunari“Awh~ Today is the Animal Land’s conference, but… I wonder if Tenma-sama is going to be okay.”
“Whenever those kings of the four countries see each other’s faces, they just end up fighting~…”
Tenma“Hmph! I have returned!”
Kazunari“Oh, Tenma-sama! Welcome back… is what I would like to say, but you seem to be in one bad mood~”
“Which country’s king did you fight with today?”
Tenma“It was Spring Land’s Sakuya today. Things are generally going pretty bad over there.”
Kazunari“Ahaha, so it was Sakuya-sama~ …”
Tenma“Dang it, I’m so miffed!”
Kazunari“Oh shoot, if I stay here he’ll probably end up taking out his anger on me~…”
“Erm, Tenma-sama! I have some errands to run so I’ll be taking my leave now~!”
“Sigh… You would think that the kings would get tired of fighting every single time.”
“Even though there are so many kind people in the other countries, since the kings are like that, well…”
“…Hm?”
Juza“…”
Kazunari“Eh, wh-, Juza-kun!? What’s wrong, are you okay!?”
Juza“…Mrngh.”
“…Ah? Oh… I fell asleep again.”
“Kazunari-san, great timing. I came here as the king of autumn’s messenger. Please, let me meet Tenma-sama.”
Kazunari“So that’s what it was. Alright, right this way.”
“Tenma-sama, the autumn king’s messenger has arrived! Juza-kun, you can take a seat right here.”
Juza“Yes.”
Tenma“Kazunari, you… Since when have you buddied up with the guys outside of our country?”
Kazunari“Oh, we just got to know each other a while ago and then became friends.”
“There are many nice people in the other countries too, Tenma-sama!”
Tenma“Sigh, good grief…”
Juza“Tenma-sama. This is a letter from the Autumn Land’s king that I have been entrusted with.”
“Other messengers from Spring Land and Winter Land are delivering their letters as well.”
Tenma“A letter from Banri, huh. Tsk, why do I have to read a letter from a scoundrel like him?”
Kazunari“Now now. More importantly, what does it say?”
Tenma“...Powerful opponents have appeared near Autumn Land. If this situation develops any further, the world, not to mention Autumn Land, could fall into turmoil.
We have to come together in this time of need.
Juza“Some crocodile and shark ruffians put together a clique of their own to try and violently take over Autumn Land.”
“They’re planning on invading the other countries after they’re done with Autumn Land.”
Kazunari“Isn’t this super bad!? Tenma-sama, this really isn’t the right time to be at odds with them!”
Tenma“…I know. Let’s go to Autumn Land - you too, Kazunari.”
Kazunari“Yes!”
Banri“I thank you all for gathering here. Even if I don’t really feel like it.”
Sakuya“Haah? You’re saying that here of all places?”
Tsumugi“Even though I came all the way here with my own two feet. I’ll go home, you know?”
Tenma“Good grief. We came here for a reason.”
Banri“Huh? Who the hell do you think you are, you little bitch?”
Tenma“It has already been settled that I’m the king of Summer Land. Who do YOU think you are?”
KazunariAw, geez! I already told you guys to stop fighting!”
Juza“There’s no time for this.”
Banri“Tsk…”
“I’ll be brief now. I want to beat the enemy that has appeared in Autumn Land’s vicinity. And for that, I need the power of the whole crew.”
Sakuya“…I suppose it can’t be helped. At this rate, all of the countries will fall into a state of chaos.”
“I will lend you my strength.”
Tsumugi“I shall also join in. For the sake of protecting this country, the people here, and our world, let us join forces.”
Tenma“Sure, I’ll also lend you a hand. Betraying our four countries like that… I’ll make them regret it.“
Banri“A’ight. It’s go time!”
The animals“Yeah!”
Kazunari“They really do act like kings in times like this.”
Juza“Even though they usually bicker over the smallest things.”
Banri“Listen up you crocs and sharks! Prepare yourselves!”
Crocodile A“Ah, so the king has showed up just for us!”
Shark A“Take this!! Gaaah!”
TsumugiHmf…!”
Sakuya“Over here!”
Shark A“Wh… S-so fast! You little-- get back here!”
Sakuya”Flowers, tree leaves, plants - I call you forth!”[1]
*wind blowing sound effect*
Shark A“What the? There’s a sweet scent, and the leaves in the trees are…”
Crocodile A“Wh—!? W-while I was distracted by the scent, grass and ivy wrapped around my limbs…!”
Tsumugi“Snow and water - I call you forth!”
*crunchy ice sound effect*
Crocodile B“Uoh!? M-my feet are frozen…!”
Sakuya“Haa! Yaah!”
Tsumugi“Don’t underestimate the sharpness of our claws! Haa!”
Crocodile B“Guaaa!?”
Tenma“Ha! Teyaah! What, is that it?”
*kicking sound effect*
Shark C“Dang it, what’s with this guy’s kicks!?”
Tenma“Be honoured that you can experience my kick charged with the power of the summer sun! Taah!”
*kicking sound effect*
Crocodile CUwaaaa!”
Banri“Oraa!”
*clawing sound effect*
Crocodile D“W-what is that speed and strength…!?”
Banri“As if you could take on me, the one clad in the golden wind! Don’t even think you can prove me wrong! Haa!!”
*clawing sound effect*
Crocodile D“Ugaaaa!”
Banri“Oi!”
Sakuya“Yes, I know!”
Tenma“Let’s go!”
Tsumugi“Alright!”
The kings“Take thiiiis!!”
*kicking and clawing sound effects*
The crocodiles and sharks“Gyaaaaa!!!”
Kazunari“A-amazing…! The kings defeated all of the ruffians…!”
Juza“You sure don’t see that every day… As expected from a king.”
Banri“Pretty sure these guys can’t get up to any good with this. Good job.”
Sakuya“Thank you for your hard work.”
Tsumugi“Now then… I suppose we don’t have to get used to matters like this again.”
Tenma“Very true. Welp, guess we’ll be going home now.”
Kazunari“Eh!? But, you guys just did all of that cool, top tier team up cooperation stuff!”
“Isn’t this the plot point where everyone becomes good pals with each other!?”
Sakuya“That’s one difficult topic…”
Tsumugi“It’s absolutely impossible.”
“However… If you absolutely want to come over, why not pop in for a cup of tea?”
Tenma“Heh, I guess if you insist, then I ought to get some souvenirs ready.”
Sakuya“If you really mean that *that* badly, then I suppose I could act as a conversing partner sometimes.”
Banri“What's that? It ain't like it's impossible for me to allow y'all to come to Autumn Land if y'all are so insistent on that sorta stuff.”[2]
Tsumugi“You should be the one insisting on us coming over.”
Sakuya“I won’t be the one insisting on anything!”
Tenma“We were talking to each other so nicely just now, what’s with you guys!?”
Banri“The hell? There’s no way you would actually expect me to be the type to actually invite someone over for tea, right!?”
Sakuya“I don’t care! I’m going home!”
Tsumugi“I will be heading home as well.”
Tenma“I’ll be leaving too!”
Banri“Oh yeah, go ahead, go home! Buzz off and go home already!”
The kings“Hmph!!”
Kazunari“…Say, don’t you think there’s a chance the kings actually want to get along with comrades who are super similar to them, or…”
Juza“…Kinda seems like it…”
Tenma“As if!! We’re going home, Kazunari!!”
Kazunari”Y-yes, okay!”
“Juza-kun, let’s keep in touch still, okay!?”
Juza“Y-yeah.”
Kazunari“Also, since they actually seem to want to get along with each other…”
“Let’s hope that both the kings and fellow people of the countries become even better friends!”
Juza“Sure.”

Notes

  1. He originally called them one by one(think “O flowers! O tree leaves! O plants!”), but I thought that combining everything into one sentence made this easier to read and less clunky. Think of this as a “magical girl summons the elements to fight by her side” kind of thing.
  2. Special thanks to Emi and Ash for helping me with figuring this line out!
