Manager | It’s about time to bring our exciting talent show to an end. |
| We have prepared a closing event to wrap this party up. Everyone, please move to the theater building. |
Tenma | Closing event? What’s that? |
Citron | I know! It must be that one event where you ring the bell in the temple! |
Tsuzuru | That’s an annual event during New Year’s Eve. Heck, even the name is different. |
Kazunari | Could it be… it’s actually the start of another party!? Let’s get loud all night, guys! |
Guy | I’m afraid I didn’t get what you mean, Miyoshi. What does “get loud all night” mean? |
Taichi | You’re so square, Guy-san! |
Sakuya | Do you know what kind of event it is, director? |
Izumi | I heard Homare-san and some others would do something, but I didn’t know the details. |
Manager | Shall we go, then!? |
| |
Kazunari | Huuuh~? Where’s the party props? |
Sakuya | There’s nothing here… |
Banri | Just what the hell are they going to do? |
| *the light turns off* |
Kumon | Eh, wha…!? |
Manager | Before the show starts, we’d like to caution that taking photos and recording the show are prohibited. |
| Without further ado, please welcome our charming and blossoming inner palace ladies! |
Murasakinomiya | Inner palace ladies are identic with songs. |
Yuuhime | Therefore, today, we are going to fight to the finish with songs. |
Murasakinomiya and Yuuhime | Please enjoy, “The Old Year and the New Year~Singing Battle in the Inner Palace~”! |
Izumi | So this is why Homare-san wanted to borrow the inner palace ladies’ costumes… |
Misumi | Whoa, that looks fun~! They’re playing triangle~! |
Kazunari | Itarun looks like a gal girl! That’s so sick~! |
Banri | Sakyo-san gives off yakuza wife vibes; that’s kinda epic… |
Taichi | He looks awesome, but in a different kind of way! |
Kumon | Muku is cute! You look really good~! |
Omi | Azami is also beautiful. |
Juza | Yeah. They don’t look that bad. |
| |
Manager | Making the first move are Yuuhime, Kuroyama and Kanashima from the Military Family! |
| Singing “Sakura is Blooming in Profusion in Edo”, please welcome the Military Family team! |
Yuuhime | “The edge of this sword is scattering the bright red sakura/ A maiden’s tears are like the gold coins♪” |
Kazunari | You killed it, Itarun! |
Sakuya | He’s even dancing!? |
Masumi | ...His dance sucks. |
Kuroyama | “Passing through the dark night/ Kaleidoscope of steel wing is dashing towards the sky♪” |
Kumon | Azami’s doing good, like a pro! |
Tasuku | I don’t understand the meaning of the lyrics at all… |
Kanashima | “Walking thousands miles, I keep lamenting~/ Now I’m going to cross this strait~♪” |
Tenma | ...Now Sakyo-san is turning this song into an Enka song. |
Taichi | They make an impressive line…! |
| |
Manager | Let’s give a round of applause for the Military Family team! |
| Up next is the Imperial Court team, singing “Yo! Yo! Let’s Go to Edo!” |
Yuki | The title is so lame! |
Murasakinomiya | “Leaving the city where I was born and raised/ Embarking on a journey to the East/ West-high, East-low in Winter/ The dragon in my heart is not doing so good.” |
Omi | This is… rap, right? He’s good, though. |
Tenma | He’s rhyming, more or less. |
Yoiyama | “Fa, Falling down/ Kno, kno, knowing myself…” |
| Eh, umm… what is it again… |
| “Knowing m-myself, I’m longing for the people in M-Momijiba.” |
Tasuku | Tsumugi… I mean, Yoiyama, you’re tongue-tied. |
Tsuzuru | Tsukioka-san’s rap is terrible. |
Hisoka | ...zzz. |
Hatsuno | “Yo! Yo! Edo! Welcome to Edo Yo! Garment flapping in the wind/ Looking over the Edo/ Hey!” |
Azuma | Fufu. Muku is so cute, doing his best like that. |
Masumi | ...The lyrics are awful. |
| |
Manager | Now that both teams have delivered their performance, we’re moving on to the judging time. |
| Please welcome… the shogun! |
Ietoki | I have nothing to criticize. Both teams are doing pretty good. |
Citron | Oh, he doesn’t wear chonmage? But Chikage looks good as the shotgun! |
Guy | Incoming shumai[1]? I didn’t know shumai had already been served during the Edo period… |
Tsuzuru | There’s too many boke lines… |
| |
Murasakinomiya | Now, my lord, please choose which one you think is better. |
Yuuhime | Is it our team’s “Sakura is Blooming in Profusion in Edo” or… |
Murasakinomiya | Our team’s “Yo! Yo! Let’s Go to Edo!”... |
Yuuhime and Murasakinomiya | The result isーー!? |
Ietoki | The winner isーー!? |
| |
Yuki | ...Haaah!? It ended!? |
Kumon | Eeeeh~!? I wanna know the result~! |
Tenma | So you guys are gonna keep us in suspense at the end of the year!? |
Manager | Thank you for watching. Happy New Year, everyone! |
