Izumi | … that’s the gist of it. This time, I would like you to appear in this stage play. |
| Misumi-kun, Chikage-san, I’m counting on you two for our main characters. |
Misumi | O~kay! Chikage, looking forward to it~ ! |
Chikage | Since it has been decided already, I’m determined to give it my best. |
Sakyo | Bon, you better play the role of Hinakawa properly. Collaborative stage plays are important for our company to get more well-known. |
Azami | You don’t have to tell me. |
Misumi | Yukki has the role of Kisaragi, that fits really well! |
Yuki | Really? |
Sakyo | There is no one besides you who could fit. |
Tasuku | I play as Irie huh… first of all I’ll have to watch the original work. |
Guy | I’ll also watch the anime. It’s the first time I’m playing a character much older than what I am actually. |
Itaru | … |
Tasuku | Why do you seem this docile? |
Itaru | Well… playing as my favorite character… when thinking about it, I thought all over again how it could be nerve-wrecking. |
Chikage | You said the same during KniRound. |
Izumi | Let’s do our best, Itaru-san! |
Sakyo | Since you have a strong bond with that work, you won’t do any compromise on your acting, it’s not that bad. |
Tasuku | It’s a great opportunity to challenge yourself to action movements you’ve been avoiding usually. |
Itaru | Uuu… |
| Well, I already said lots, but since I’ve got my word to tell on it, I intend to make it a perfect stage. |
Yuki | What’s this? |
Itaru | The anime’s DVDs, comics, goods and magazines… amongst lots more. |
| Grasp your characters with these. |
Guy | That’s a lot. |
Itaru | By the way, they’re all part of my personal collection so pay attention when using them. I won’t let you escape if you ever dirt them with cola or any other drink. |
Yuki | Coming from the one who’s more likely to do it, that’s big… |
Misumi | I’ve watched the anime! Chikage too! |
Chikage | Ah… yeah, that’s right. |
Itaru | You and senpai play as the main characters who are the core of the story. Make sure to grasp the important features of your characters. |
Misumi | I’ll do my best! |
Chikage | Yeah, yeah. |
| |
Izumi | (we’ve got directions for the script, today begins the practice huh…) |
| |
Izumi | Everyone, nice work-- |
| ?! |
Dominator | "Crime coefficient is under 50. Target is not subject to enforcement. The trigger will be locked." |
Itaru | Good for you, your crime coefficient is under 50. |
Chikage | Chigasaki, stop pointing this to everyone who’s coming in. |
Izumi | Geez… these are the props that have been entrusted to us so please use them properly! |
Itaru | I know, I know. |
| During Season 3, Ginoza is affiliated to the Foreign Affairs Ministry and has no scene where he’s using the Dominator so I couldn’t resist. |
| Good for you all of Division 1~ You can use it as much as you like. |
Tasuku | Is that really the matter here… ? |
Sakyo | Everyone is here now, and we can’t begin if we don’t have our prep meeting. |
| |
Chikage | “Enforcers. From today we’ll be your supervisors. Our orders are absolute, and in principle we don’t accept any questions.” |
Guy | “Yeah yeah, we already know that.” |
Tasuku | “Give us your 'absolute orders', Inspector.” |
Misumi | “Well then, please activate your Dominators.” |
Yuki | “Is that really necessary? We are only investigating an accident, right?” |
Chikage | “I said we do not accept questions.” |
Misumi | “Another bureau requested it. Let’s pray we won’t need them.” |
Izumi | (I can feel they’re still feeling awkward, but everyone is grasping the atmosphere well for a first practice) |
| (As expected, Misumi-kun’s, Chikage-san’s and Tasuku-san’s actings are really good) |
| (Chikage-san’s cool attitude is fitting really well with Kei’s stoic attitude) |
| (Chikage-san might be really great with such a theme and kind of character…) |
| |
Izumi | That will be all for today’s practice. Good work everyone. |
Misumi | Good work~ ! |
Sakyo | It wasn’t that bad for the first day. |
Tasuku | Yes. I have the feeling we all have a great feeling with our respective roles. |
Itaru | .... Yeah, it’s not that bad for a beginning. It’s still not showable to the world though. |
| From now on, everyone has to get closer to their characters… ! |
Guy | Chigasaki is overflowing with will to do well. |
Azami | Well, it’s great he wants to do well. |
Izumi | Everyone needs to understand more about the character they’re playing, for sure. |
Misumi | Yee~s! I’ll do my best! |
