Sakuya | … |
Chikage | So it’s Sakuya’s turn now, huh. |
Banri | We’ve finally reached the debut shows, huh. |
Sakuya | … |
| … |
Kumon | Huh? |
Muku | Is the video on pause? |
Yuki | He’s moving slightly, though. |
Sakuya | … |
Izumi | Sakuya-kun, the camera is rolling! |
Sakuya | Eh!? Ah, sorry! |
| My name is SakusakーーSakuya Sakuma! I played Romeo in Spring Troupe’s debut play “Romeo and Julius”. |
Itaru | He’s stuttering. |
Masumi | You’re too panicked. |
Sakuya | Uh… “Romeo and Julius” was the first play that I led. Despite that, I was still clueless at that time. I felt like everyone ran through me in no time. |
| Looking back, I was embarrassed I couldn’t do anything. But I did my very best. |
| It still feels like a dream that I could stand on the stage with everyone in Spring Troupe, and other new friends I’ve gained through this company. I feel blessed. |
| Masumi-kun, I’ve become more reliable than last time. I can be a good partner to you now, so please take care of me. |
Masumi | … |
Tsuzuru | Don’t just ignore that! |
Masumi | My acting is still better than yours. |
Tsuzuru | You… |
Citron | Masumi is the same as ever. |
Sakuya | I’ll work hard to catch up to you, Masumi-kun! |
Tenma | I’m Tenma Sumeragi, playing Alibaba in Summer Troupe’s debut play “Water Me!”. |
| This debut play has become an important play in my life as an actor. |
| It was all thanks to Summer Troupe members that I could go on until our final show despite my stage trauma. |
| My theater experience has given my acting a lot of variation. |
| I couldn't have become who I am today if it wasn’t for that play. I’m really grateful to you all. |
Yuki | Ew, gross. |
Tenma | You! |
Kazunari | Don’t fight, don’t fight! |
Tenma | I’ve grown much confidence since that time, and you all have gotten better in acting. |
| We now have expressions and plays that can only be performed by us. I wanna continue producing the best plays with you all. |
Muku | Right, our debut show was a precious play that marked the start of the Summer Troupe. |
Misumi | Our first step forward~! |
Yuki | Well, I do agree it was memorable. |
Kumon | Wish I could’ve joined you guys from the start! |
Banri | I’m Banri Settsu, playing Luciano in Autumn Troupe’s debut play “How Wonderfully Picaresque”. |
| My memories from that play, huh… Well, I was such an irritating brat back then. |
Sakyo | You’re still a brat. |
Juza | And you’re still irritating. |
Banri | Fuck off. |
| I opened my eyes after a horrible loss that time, and because of that, I sincerely find acting interesting now. |
| If I hadn't joined this theater troupe and got to learn about acting, I’d prolly still live a boring life. |
| I’m grateful I could encounter such an interesting thing like this. |
Omi | You’re being honest to Juza. How unusual. |
Taichi | You’ve grown, Ban-chan! |
Azami | That’s surprising. |
Juza | Sickening. |
Banri | I never said I’m grateful to Hyodo. |
Tsumugi | I’m Tsumugi Tsukioka. I played Michael in Winter Troupe’s debut play “Sympathy for the Angel”. |
| Up until this day, I still think it was an extremely risky decision to entrust us with the task of winning the match to ensure the troupe’s future. |
| But once I got on the stage, all the fear and anxiety I had disappeared. I was so happy I could perform a play again. |
| I might still be unreliable as a leader, but… |
| I still want to stand on stage with all Winter Troupe members and everyone else. That feeling hasn't changed. |
| I’ll continue to be in your care. |
Azuma | You’re not unreliable. |
Tasuku | Lead us in your own way. |
Guy | You’re a very admirable leader, Tsukioka. |
Hisoka | Keep being you, Tsumugi. |
Homare | I’ll be in your care too. |
Tsumugi | Thanks. |
Sakyo | ...With this, we’ve watched all 24 video messages. |
Banri | Still, it’s amazing that we could perform this many plays despite what happened. |
Tenma | True, and a lot at that. |
Tasuku | It’s also a miracle that we didn’t lose a single person. |
Taichi | That’s sick! |
Manager | *sobs*... *sobs*... we've truly come so far… |
Hisoka | ...Is he drunk? |
Azuma | He should be sober. He doesn’t drink much after all. |
Sakyo | Good grief… |
Kazunari | Alrighty. Next up is the all-night screening partyーー. |
Izumi | Ah, hold on. There’s something I like to show you guys. |
Sakuya | Huh? |
Izumi | … |
| |
Sakuya | Director, this is… |
Kazunari | Did you make this? |
Izumi | Yup. An acquaintance taught me how to do it. I’m glad I barely finished it in time. |
| Filming you guys while looking back at our plays made me recall a lot of things that happened. |
| And when I looked back at the number of plays we have done, I realized it was by no means easy to prepare for either of them. |
| We all struggled and suffered, but we also helped each other out and overcame the hardship in the end. |
| I was also an actor before. I know how hard it is to simply make it through the final show of a play. |
| Mustering our willpower and strength, we will run through to the end without compromise after telling ourselves to do better… |
| I want to express my gratitude to all of you after all the pain and difficulties that we’ve been through. |
| Thank you so much. |
| I’m so proud that I could produce plays with you all in this troupe. |
| I’ll continue to be in your care. |
Sakuya | ーーThe same goes for us, director! Please take care of us! |
Masumi | It’s not that difficult as long as I’m with you. |
Citron | We’ll work hard because standing onstage with everyone is so much fun! |
Tsuzuru | Let’s produce even better plays! |
Itaru | But well, we all need to be careful not to push ourselves too hard and run out of energy. |
Chikage | He’s right. We have a lot of members who like to charge ahead here. |
Banri | I mean, we’re still far from over, y’know. |
Sakyo | Let’s keep going like this. We don’t have money to spare for vacation. |
Azami | The hell is that? Are we dogs[1] or something? |
Omi | Shall we give it our all again? |
Juza | I intend to polish my acting even more. |
Taichi | I’ll keep doing my best, director-sensei! |
Kazunari | I think I can do more designs~! Let’s keep doing interesting things! |
Yuki | I also have a lot of things I wanna do with our costumes. |
Azami | I’m gonna increase the quality of our makeup too. |
Tenma | Of course this also goes for our acting. We still have rooms for improvement. |
Kumon | We have to rehearse more and get better! |
Muku | Yup. My wish has come true, but I’m still going to do my best to be a more beautiful prince! |
Misumi | I wanna perform more and more exciting plays with you guys~! |
Tsumugi | I’m also not going to lose with everyone. I’ll try my best as Winter Troupe’s leader. |
Tasuku | I want to focus more on my own acting too. |
Homare | There’s no end to art! You can shine as far as you want. |
Guy | Arisugawa is right. I still have lots of things I need to learn. |
Hisoka | Arisu said some decent things for once. |
Homare | Do you have any objections, Hisoka-kun? |
Hisoka | ...Not really. I’ll continue to do my best as actor Hisoka Mikage. |
Homare | That’s the spirit! |
Azuma | Fufu, I’ll try keeping up in my own way. I feel like I can do my best if you guys are here with me. |
Manager | Our next goal is Fleur Award! |
Izumi | Guys… |
| Let’s do our best to win the Fleur Award! |
| (We’re still far from over… We’re still far from our goal, but we should be able to reach it as long as we’re together.) |
| (No, we will reach it. I'll do my best to help make everyone fully bloomed through incredible plays!) |
