Izumi | A collaboration between bathhouse and acting? |
Omi | Yeah, a friend from the onsen association of my college said he wanted to arrange one. |
| Heard about the bathhouse "Velu~do Bath"? |
Izumi | Yeah. It's a bathhouse with a traditional feel right. |
Omi | The onsen association teamed up with this bathhouse, and seems like they came up with a plan. |
| They want to make bathhouses more accessible, in this era where young people grew distant from public baths. |
| Since it's the town of theaters, they came up with this project to make the bathhouse livelier. |
| So they're looking for a troupe that will join the collaboration. |
Izumi | I see, sounds fun! |
Omi | Right, acting in a bathhouse… it's so rare which makes it interesting. |
| I sometimes go there with the other guys after soccer practice, so we're familiar with that bathhouse. |
Izumi | It's an opportunity to try many different things as a Company. |
| On top of that, it would make both the town and the bathhouse livelier, it's full of nothing but good things. I'll consult with Sakyo-san! |
Omi | Yeah, I'm counting on you. |
| |
Izumi | And so, a collaboration between Velu~do Bath and MANKAI Company has been green lit! |
| I would like the eight actors here to participate in the bathhouse performance. |
Misumi | Okaay! |
Kumon | Performing in a bathhouse sounds like so much fun! |
| And I'm together with nii-chan, I'm so happy! Hehe, let's do our best! |
Juza | Yeah. |
Izumi | Tsuzuru-kun will be participating in the meeting today, so if you have any requests or ideas for the script feel free to share. |
Sakyo | Incidentally, this time we will be using the bath as our stage. |
Guy | Hm… which means, we will be performing naked? |
Citron | Oh!? That's official! |
Tsuzuru | Could it be that you meant offensive…? |
Omi | Normally it's forbidden to enter bathhouse water with a towel, but--. |
| This time as an exception, we can wear a swimsuit and also a towel on top of it. |
Izumi | Female customers can watch the performance too, so make sure you wear a swimsuit! |
Citron | That's a relief~. |
Tasuku | With the bath as our stage, we can create a different performance from usual. |
Izumi | I'm looking forward to it. It's very innovative so it's going to be the talk of the town, it's great for the Company's PR…! |
Juza | Acting in a bath is a first for me. |
Misumi | I want to make a triangle with bubbles~! |
Omi | Sounds fun. |
Tsuzuru | The stage is a bathhouse, and the script is going to be a slice of life one-scene, so making it a comedy sounds like a good idea. |
| If you guys have any memories about bathhouses or baths please tell me. |
Guy | Understood. |
Izumi | Let's end the meeting for today then. |
Sakyo | Each and every one of you should also think about role building too. |
Citron | Even if we wear swimsuits, we'll be topless… I will work on my muscles! |
Kumon | Alright, me too! Tasuku-san, teach us! |
Misumi | I'll train too~! |
Tasuku | Sure, leave it to me. We'll start with a morning run, sit-ups, push-ups and then… |
Izumi | (Everyone is so motivated. I can't wait to see their acting!) |
