Kazunari | The plan for the manzai program has arrived~! |
Tsuzuru | Oh, so it's come. |
Kazunari | Let's check it immediately! |
Yuki | Hmm, it's pretty legit, huh. |
Azami | Huh...... |
Banri | There's a talk segment as well as manzai. |
Tsuzuru | I don't have confidence in my talking ability...... |
Azami | Hmm......? You don't seem like you'd be bad at talking. |
Tsuzuru | Nah, when we were being interviewed before I was basically incomprehensible...... |
Kazunari | Ahh, speaking of! |
Azami | Interviewed? |
Citron | He means this! |
Tsuzuru | "Ah, yes. I w-wa-was able to write ―― I wrote it."[1] |
Citron | It's an important recording of the time we were featured by Veludo TV before the Spring Troupe's debut play. |
Tsuzuru | Ahhhh! What are you putting on! Say, you're too well-prepared! |
Banri | You're seriously nervous, huh. |
Tsumugi | It's normal to get nervous when a TV reporter comes to interview you, isn't it. |
Kazunari | Even if Citrun wins, Tsuzurun might get nervous~. |
Yuki | If you're like that during the talk segment too, won't it ruin the atmosphere? |
Tsuzuru | Eep...... |
Citron | That's why I'll train you hard! |
| In order to train your speaking ability, we'll just have to build up your ability to adapt to conversation through improvised comedy props. |
Tsuzuru | Wait, why are you acting like that's the obvious thing to do. Besides, it's prop comedy, not comedy props. |
| *sigh* I've got nothing but concerns about this...... |
Izumi | Everyone, could you help me a bit with the shopping? |
Banri | Shopping? |
Izumi | I'm thinking of stocking up on everything we need in preparation for the end of the year. |
Kazunari | Director-chan, sorry-piko! I've got plans after this, so I can't go~. |
Izumi | I see. I won't force you, so that's fine. What about everyone else? |
Tsumugi | I can go. |
Azami | Me too. |
Yuki | I'd just been wanting to go look at something, so that's fine. |
Citron | Then let's have a phantom comedy tournament while we're shopping! |
Tsuzuru | I keep telling you it's prop comedy. |
Izumi | Prop comedy? |
Tsumugi | Ermm, the truth is ――. |
| |
Izumi | I-I see. In order to polish up Tsuzuru-kun's talk skills, he'll improvise skits with props...... |
Citron | Let's challenge ourselves! |
Tsuzuru | Will this really improve my talk skills......? |
Izumi | Hmm, I'm not sure how it'll turn out, but why don't we go try it out for now! |
| |
Citron | Tsuzuru, I brought the basket. |
Tsuzuru | Eh, ah, yes......? |
Citron | Prop comedy, start! |
Tsuzuru | So suddenly!? |
Citron | This is already a battlefield! No compromises! |
Tsuzuru | Ehh...... |
Citron | We'll start from vegetables! |
Tsuzuru | U-Umm...... |
Banri | From an outsider's perspective, wouldn't they wonder what's going on? |
Izumi | Let's try not to bother those around us, okay...... |
