Backstage Stories

Part 1Part 2

Izumi	Then, only Yuki-kun won’t have any dance scene, everyone, please think if a freestyle dance to do in the play.
Tenma	Alright, understood.
Kumon	Alright!
Muku	Freestyle…
	Wh, what to do…
	I wonder if I can think of a freestyle dance.
Izumi	Of course, if you have any issue, feel free to consult me anytime.
Misumi	You can consult me too~
Kazunari	Courz, me too! You’re always welcome!
Yuki	Well, I can also give you some opinions.
Muku	Everyone… Thank you!
	But everyone has to think of their own freestyle dance too right…
	I’ll start by trying my best!
Tenma	Yeah. I’m looking forward to see Muku’s dance.
Kumon	Let’s do our best together!
Muku	Since it’s a dance club, I wonder if it should be a cool dance…
	Ah, let’s try to search for what’s trending now.
	Freestyle dance…
	Woah, there are a lot of varieties.
	Umm, which one will be good…
Citron	Muku, what are you doing?
Muku	Ah, Citron-sama.
Citron	Are you worried about anything?
Muku	Actually, there will be a scene with freestyle dance on the upcoming performance.
	And then, I’m supposed to think about the dance on my own, but I’m kind of lost…
Citron	Oh! Freestyle dance sounds great~!
	I can dance with Hisoka quite well!
	Muku, come with me!
Muku	Eh?
	Wah wah, wait a minute, Citron-sama…!
Citron	Excuse me!
Muku	Excuse me.
Homare	Oh, what is it?
Citron	Is Hisoka in?
Homare	If you’re looking for him, he’s sleeping over there.
Citron	Hisoka, Hisoka, wake up~
Hisoka	Zzz…
Citron	Oh, he’s not waking up at all.
Muku	Citron-sama, he’s sleeping so soundly like this, I don’t think it’s a good idea to wake him just for my sake…
Homare	It’s not a problem if you have things to do with him.
	It’s the usual thing anyway, Muku-kun, you don’t need to think so much about it.
	Here, Hisoka-kun, it’s marshmallow.
Hisoka	…Hmm, marshmallow…
	Nom.
Citron	Hisoka’s awake!
Hisoka	…What?
Citron	Muku’s worried about his freestyle dance for the upcoming performance!
	Let’s go and do some street act with me!
Hisoka	…Muku, are you going to do freestyle dance?
Muku	Yeah.
	Ah, bu, but it’s fine if you want to sleep…!
Hisoka	…It’s fine. Let’s go.
Muku	Eh, really? Thank you so much…!
Homare	Ho, a dance street act.
	That sounds pretty interesting.
	I have no plans after this, let me tag along with you.
Citron	Yes!
	Then, let’s go and do our 4 men street act!
Izumi	Alright, I guess it’s time to go out to buy ingredients for dinner… Eh?
	Everyone, you’re going somewhere?
Citron	We’re going to do some street act.
Izumi	It’s rare to see you going with these members.
Muku	Citron-sama and Hisoka are going to show me their dance.
Izumi	I see, Citron-kun and Hisoka-kun always dance for the street act.
Hisoka	Yeah.
Homare	Since I got the chance, I would like to showcase my dance as well.
Muku	Woah, really!? Thank you so much!
Izumi	It will be great if you can get some tips for your dance.
Muku	Yes!
	Right, Director-san.
	Why don’t we go together halfway?
Izumi	You’re right, then let’s go.
Izumi	Then, I’m going this way.
	Muku-kun, do your best!
Muku	Yes!
Izumi	Everyone, I’ll leave Muku-kun in your care.
Hisoka	Understood.
Homare	Leave it to us.
Citron	Director, see you later!

Homare	This area seems to be widely used.
Citron	Then, let’s start immediately!
	~ ♪ ~~ ♪
Hisoka	Muku, look properly.
Muku	Yes!
Homare	I’ll participate as well!
Hisoka	–
Homare	La~ lalala~ ♪
Muku	Woah…!
	(I’ve never seen this kind of dance before, but it’s amazing)
Citron	~ ♪ ~~ ♪
Hisoka	–
Homare	Lu~ lulu~ ♪
Muku	That was so cool!
	That dance, what genre is it?
Hisoka	…I don’t know.
Citron	It’s RonronNairo Dance!
Homare	It’s Caprichoso Poem dance.
Muku	Ronron Nairo dance, Caprichoso Poem dance… That’s my first time hearing about it.
	As I thought, I’m still way no good compared to others, I’m just an empty useless radish…
Citron	No-no-, it’s not that Muku’s no good!
Homare	You’re right, if you don’t know, then you just need to get to know it from now right.
Muku	Citron-sama… Arisu-san…
Hisoka	…Anyway, those are not even genre.
Muku	Eh!?
Citron	It’s our original dance!
Muku	An original dance!?
	Amazing…!
	Umm, if you don’t mind… Can you show it to me one more time?
Homare	Of course!
Hisoka	Yeah.
Citron	I’ll dance for you how many times you want~!
	~ ♪~~ ♪ ♪
Homare	Lalalala~~ ♪
???	Oi.
Muku	Ah, Zen-san…!
	Good afternoon.
Citron	Oh! It’s the first gen Autumn Troupe leader~ ♪
Homare	A chance encounter in this kind of place…
	Ha! A poem has surged within me!
	A hello in Veludo, everything smile dancing~!
Hisoka	Alice, you’re noisy.
Muku	The three of you can dance while reciting poetry and having a conversation, amazing…!
Zen	What a dexterous bunch.
	Anyway, I don’t know what kind of dance it is, but you look like you’re having so much fun doing it.
	It’s not half bad.
Muku	It’s a dance that ends up catching your attention right.
Zen	Are you not dancing?
Muku	Me…?
	Umm, actually…
Zen	I see.
	A freestyle dance huh.
	A dance is an expression. It’s not something that you should think hard about using your head. Even more when it’s a freestyle.
	It’s fine to just follow the melody and let your body moves accordingly, it’s no good when you’re bounded by a certain form or genre.
	It’s just like those guys, dance freely with your instinct.
Muku	Let my body moves freely…
	(…I see, I think too much about it)
	Zen-san, thank you so much!
	I feel like I should be able to do a freestyle dance now.
	I’m going to dance freely with everyone!
Zen	Yeah. Good luck on your performance too.
	Then, see you.
Muku	Yes!
Citron	~ ♪ ~~♪
Muku	Let me dance with everyone too!
Citron	Of course! Everyone, let’s dance~ ♪
Hisoka	Yeah, let’s do it together.
Homare	Then, Muku-kun, together~ ♪
Muku	~ ♪~ ♪
Muku	…So, how is it?
	I tried to create a dance that came to my mind when I listen to the music.
Izumi	Yeah, I think it’s great!
Muku	Really!? I’m so glad…!
Izumi	There’s still some time, we can continue to brush up slowly from now on.
Muku	Yes!
Izumi	Anyway, you decided pretty fast after following Citron-kun and the others for their street act.
	You also got some advice from Zen-san, I wished I could have been there with you at that time.
CHOICE 1: “Next time, I want to go with you too" [+] Izumi Next time, I want to go with you too. Muku Of course! Everyone’s dance was so cool. I also danced with them, it was so much fun. Izumi (Fufu. Muku-kun, your eyes are shining. I’m glad you’re enjoying this) Me too, I’m looking forward to see Muku-kun and everyone’s dance. Muku Yes! I’m going to show an even more wonderful dance for Director-san, so I’ll do my best for the practice!
CHOICE 2: “I’m looking forward to everyone’s dance" [+] Izumi I’m looking forward to see everyone’s dance. Muku Yes! I’m really looking forward to it. I wonder what kind of freestyle everyone will come up with. Izumi It’s likely to express each of their own individuality. Muku Fufu, you’re right! Izumi Even in Muku-kun’s dance, I can feel Muku-kun’s usual atmosphere and individuality, it’s such a good feeling. Muku Wah, I’m really happy if you say so…! Thank you so much!
Citron	Muku, are you done with practice?
Muku	Ah, Citron-sama!
Izumi	We just ended.
Citron	I thought of a good dance.
	I’m pretty sure it will make a good reference for a freestyle dance!
Muku	Really!? Please teach me!
Citron	Of course!
	Let’s go to the courtyard now!
Muku	Yes!
Izumi	(Citron-kun, it’s a cool dance, but he always dance without any boundaries…
	There was even a time when he’s dancing like he’s scooping a loach out of the water…
	Muku-kun has a very good form on his dance right now, it will be great if it doesn’t go to a weird direction…)
