Previous Event Story Next
Muku*takes a deep breath*......Well then, I'd like to start the third MANMAN Grand Prix!
AzumaIt's gotten to the third one already, huh.
MukuThe rules are the same as last time; all members other than the participating teams will be the judges! Each person gets one vote, and the team with the most votes wins!
AzumaThe winning pair will, of course, receive the right to appear on TV.
MukuThen without further ado, our first battle is "Kachikomi[1] Season" vs "Citrun"!
First up is "Kachikomi Season"!
BanriYou guys don't know us, huuh!? I'm the leader, Banri, dammit!
AzamiI'm his companion, Azamiii!
BanriTogether we are ――.
"Kachikomi Season"!! Let's have a deadly fun time!!![2]
Ahh, school's such a pain.
AzamiI get you; it seriously sucks.
BanriBesides, I get lectured a lot even though I don't do anything.
AzamiMe too. I get hauled in just for leaving the lights on.
BanriI get you. I even get scolded about how to wear my clothes or greet people.
AzamiThey've gotten mad at me for eating candy because it was over 300 yen. They're stingy about everything a person does.
BanriSay, could it be we're talking about the same teacher?
AzamiMaybe. ......Though we won't say who.
TenmaThose two just looked at Sakyo-san......
ItaruThey know what they're doing.
SakyoYou guys......
MukuNext is "Citrun"!
TsuzuruAll right......Let's go!
CitronLet's do our best!
MukuThe panel has decided and the winner of the first bout is ――. "Citrun"!
CitronWe did it!
TsuzuruWe've cleared the first hurdle!
MukuContinuing on, our second battle is "Triangle Mannequin" VS "MarshMugi"!
MisumiHello~. We're Triangle Mannequin!
YukiMeow.
MisumiThis is my pet cat. Cute, isn't he~.
YukiThat's right, purraise me meow-re~.
MisumiEh, h-he spoke!?
YukiI went to Japanese school and meow-stered it.
MisumiWow! A cat going to Japanese school is so poignant!
TasukuIt's surprising that Rurikawa is the funny guy and Ikaruga is the straight man.
HomareHis responses are reminiscent of Kazunari-kun.
TaichiIf you mention summer and cats, you think of the Summer Troupe's second play, don't you!
IzumiYou're right! It might be a homage to that.
YukiI'd like to get out of here soon, meow.
MisumiWhy!? I'm the one looking after you!
YukiYou snore loudly at night and breathe loudly during the day.
MisumiWell I'm sorry about that; then I'll try my hardest not to breathe.
YukiIt's too late for that meow! Bye bye, meow!
......
MisumiWhat's wrong?
YukiI have to play a game event after all, so I guess I can stay here for meow.
MisumiGoing to school and playing games; just what sort of cat are you~!
MasumiThe straight man's character isn't consistent.
JuzaMisumi-san seems like he's playing several roles.
KumonAhaha! Yuki's amazing for just carrying on with the gags!
ChikageBoth the straight man and the funny guy seem to be doing that.
MukuNext is "MarshMugi"; please step forward!
MukuThe results of the second battle are ―― "MarshMugi" wins!
TsumugiWe did it!
HisokaI'm sleepy......
MukuAnd now for our third battle ――.
MukuIt's finally the decisive bettle!
Azuma"Citrun" and "MarshMugi"......This reminds you of the second grand prix, doesn't it.
MukuThat's right! The decisive battle of the second grand prix was also between these same pairs. As you'd expect, they are both truly talented pairs.
This is a fated match-up......Will "MarshMugi" obtain successive wins, or will "Citrun" achieve their coveted victory ―― Let's keep watching!
AzumaFirst is "MarshMugi". Do your best.
TsumugiHello~.
HisokaHello.
TsumugiThis is "MarshMugi". We're in your care.
Hisoka-kun is going to imitate a marshmallow now, so try and guess which sort of marshmallow he's imitating.
HisokaImitate a marshmallow......?
TsumugiSee, there are lots of different types of marshmallow, right?
HisokaYeah......?
TsumugiFor instance, let me see, I'll show you an example.
......
Hisoka......
TsumugiThat was a small candy shop's marshmallow just then. Now it's your turn.
Hisoka......I'm already lost.
GuyTsukioka's performance is sophisticated, isn't it.
OmiHaha, as expected of last time's winners.
TsumugiThank you very much.
MukuNext is "Citrun"; please step forward!
TsuzuruWe're finally here.
CitronTsuzuru, let's go as we usually do!
TsuzuruYeah!
Hello~.
CitronAaaaaction!
TsuzuruWhat's that all of a sudden.
CitronIt's the sign for the jokes to start.
TsuzuruManzai doesn't usually have a sign like that!
CitronLately, I've been thinking I'd like to appear in a drama.
TsuzuruThat's sudden. Well, comedians take on acting jobs too sometimes.
CitronTsuzuru, please help me practice for my telescopic debut.
TsuzuruTelevision, not telescopic.[3] Fine, what role should I play?
CitronI'll be the producer, so you be the talent.
TsuzuruWait, that's not a drama! Those roles make it seem like a variety show!
SakuyaAhaha! That's Citron-san for you!
IzumiThe retorts are on point!
TsuzuruEnough already!
Thank you very much!
CitronThank you!
MukuThis concludes all the manzai acts! Then, judges, please cast your votes!
MukuIt's time for the results!
The winner is......with 8 votes to 7, it's "Citrun"!
CitronTsuzuru......We finally did it!
TsuzuruW-We did it, Citron-san!
AzumaThe right to appear on television is awarded to these two.
ManagerH-How disabboinding~......!
KamekichiWe won't lose next time!
