SakuyaThis is......
Hisoka......An empty space.
TasukuRight.
ChikageCan that game be played without using any props?
ItaruDetails, pls.
CitronOne person recites a chant, and when they turn around everyone else stops moving and keeps a pose!
TsumugiIs that......what we know as 'Daruma-san ga koronda'? [1]
TsuzuruWhat are we, primary school kids?!
IzumiCitron-kun, who did you learn that from?
CitronSacchan from the meat shop in the shopping district! She says it's been popular at primary school recently. You have to keep up with the trends!
ItaruAn actual primary school kid.
MasumiIt's too surreal, playing 'Daruma-san ga koronda' with this many people.
Tasuku......No, wait. When you think about it, it might turn out to be good training.
If you make it so that when you stop moving, you freeze in a pose that expresses something and then have someone guess what it is......
IzumiI see! Then you can train both your expressiveness and your core! Sounds good!
HomareHmph, it's rather novel play. Shall we try it.
AzumaIf we're playing it as a game, shall we think of some sort of punishment game too?
IzumiThen anyone who loses their balance before their pose is guessed is in charge of clean-up after practice for the duration of the training camp.
ItaruSeriously. If you had to cop the punishment game on your own that'd be the worst.
IzumiThen I'll play the demon[2] first. Let's go~!
SakuyaEhh!? We're already starting!?
IzumiThe daruma doll has fa......llen!
IzumiThis is a simple volleyball receive, huh.
TasukuThat's right.
IzumiTsumugi-san's pose here is......a bartender, I think?
TsumugiThank goodness; that's right.
IzumiNext is......
ItaruHold on, hurry up and guess; this position is tough to hold.
Masumi......
CitronH-Here too......!
IzumiHm......Homare-san's pose is difficult. What is it.
CitronI've got it! The owner of a fruit shop greeting a neighbour while preparing to open the shop in the morning!
TsuzuruHow specific do you want to be!?
HomarePlease! Look carefully at this artful pose!
IzumiArtful......hmm?
Azuma......Homare. Something looks like it's about to fall from your pocket, you know?
HisokaMarshmallow......!
Homare――gh.
IzumiWah!? Hisoka-san!?
Hisoka*munch munch......
ItaruNice catch.
HomareOh my, excuse me. It seems the packet of marshmallows was open.
SakuyaAs expected of Hisoka-san! He caught the marshmallow at an incredible speed!
Chikage......But your pose still hasn't been guessed. Aren't you out if you move before your pose is guessed?
CitronYes! Hisoka, you're out!
Hisoka......It's because......my body moved instinctively in response to the marshmallow.......
TsumugiUmm, the ones left are ――.
Masumi......gh.
ItaruMasumi?
TasukuUsui wobbled too. He's out.
TsumugiThat's surprising. To think that from the Spring and Winter Troupes, the ones with good reflexes, Hisoka-kun and Masumi-kun, would be out.
Masumi......*sigh*. I let my guard down a bit.
ChikageThen these two will be in charge of clean-up after practice, huh.
CitronThis game is very fun! Let's play again without a punishment game!
Itaru*sigh*......This plain tired me out; it wasn't free time at all......
TsuzuruYeah, this was just practice, huh......
SakuyaBut we were able to have fun while training, so it's killing two birds with one stone, right!
OwnerGood work, everyone.
IzumiAh, the owner!
OwnerI greeted the Director and Yukishiro-san earlier, but I'm sorry I'm late to greet all of you.
ChikageNo, us too. We'll be in your care this time.
TsumugiYou and Azuma-san are old acquaintances, aren't you.
AzumaYes, that's right.
OwnerI've also been really looking forwards to having MANKAI Company here this time.
So then. If you're amenable, I wondered whether you'd all be willing to perform for us.
SakuyaEh?
OwnerCould you hold some sort of play in front of all the cottage guests the day after tomorrow?
I'm sure they'll all be pleased.
TasukuWe're in your care, and it'll be a good experience. We can accept, can't we?
IzumiThat's right! We'll gladly accept!
OwnerThat's good! Thank you very much. I'll be counting on you!
