{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=I'm glad there are lots of comedy specials on at this time of the year!}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=I like this comedian!}}
{{Line|character=Tsuzuru|border=tsuzuru|dialogue=They've been popping up a lot recently, haven't they.}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=They're really energetic, so they're fun to watch! Their punchlines are funny~!}}
{{Line|character=Sakuya|border=sakuya|dialogue=Ahaha! Their funny faces are funny too!}}
{{Line|character=Tenma|border=tenma|dialogue=There are a lot of people copying them around.}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=They're energetic, but their back-and-forths are superb. We should be able to carry some of that across to our acting.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Comic dialogue is a good reference for when we solicit laughts in a play.}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=I want to know which comedians you all like!}}
{{Line|character=Tenma|border=tenma|dialogue=I like "Papepa"<ref>This is probably a reference to an IRL comedian/group, but I'm not sure who ;; If anyone knows, feel free to edit them in!</ref>. I acted with them in a drama recently and got to see their jokes; I became quite the fan.}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=Now that you mention it, when "Papepa" appeared on TV the other day, they were saying they'd gotten your approval!}}
{{Line|character=Tenma|border=tenma|dialogue=Recently, comedians have been appearing in dramas, and their acting is good too. Their jokes are polished, so they're worth watching.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=My pick might be "Ranman Sakuyo, Hanayo"<ref>Same as previous...</ref>.}}
{{Line|character=Tsuzuru|border=tsuzuru|dialogue=Tsukioka-san, that's a pretty sophisticated choice.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=R-Really?　I think they're pretty funny, though......}}
{{Line|character=Kumon|border=kumon|dialogue=I like "Chokkoritan"<ref>Probably a reference to "Hyokkorihan"</ref>! Their gags are so fresh I laugh a lot!}}
{{Line|character=Sakuya|border=sakuya|dialogue=Ah, apparently Chokkoritan's going to appear after this!}}
{{Line|character=Kumon|border=kumon|dialogue=Eh! I'm definitely watching!}}
{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=Everyone seems to be having fun. I'm going to research lots for manzai too!}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=Everyone, listen up~! I've got a super special thing to talk about!}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=What is it, Kazu-kun?}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=I've been asked something by Papi again~.}}
{{Line|character=Tsuzuru|border=tsuzuru|dialogue=Your father works at an advertising agency, doesn't he.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=The Santorini Resort thing was by Kazu-kun's father's request too, right.}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=What sort of thing did he ask of you this time??}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=He says he wants normal people to form a manzai pair and perform a show on TV!}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=TV!?}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=Right, right~. A program on Veludo TV is developing a plan where noormal people who can make funny jokes will appear as a manzai pair.}}
{{Line|border=kazunari|dialogue=They're looking for people to appear on it~.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=But why come to us?}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=This was a fair while back, but it might be because I told Papi about our MANMAN Grand Prix!}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=I see. To think that yet another chance to go on TV would come following on from Christmas......}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=BTW, it's a live broadcast! So since I gave Papi the OK, we've got to decide who'll appear.}}
{{Line|character=Tsuzuru|border=tsuzuru|dialogue=You agreed, huh......}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=It'd be a waste not to appear on this sort of thing! So who wants to do it!}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=In that case, I'm nominating Citrun!}}
{{Line|character=Sakuya|border=sakuya|dialogue=I think Tsuzuru-kun and Citron-san would be good too!}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=Right! They're who came to my mind first too~!}}
{{Line|character=Kumon|border=kumon|dialogue=You mean their manzai will appear on TV!? I'm super happy!}}
{{Line|character=Tenma|border=tenma|dialogue=They're the most passionate about manzai, and they have experience in the shopping district. Should be fine, right?}}
{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=That's no good!}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=???}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=You mean you're reluctant to appear on TV?}}
{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=It's not that. ......Citrun has never been able to win a MANMAN Grand Prix!}}
{{Line|character=Tsuzuru|border=tsuzuru|dialogue=Urk......Hearing that again stings a bit......}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=I see~.}}
{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=We want to appear on TV after we've won fair and square.}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=In other words......!}}
{{Line|character=Citron|border=citron|dialogue=The Third MANMAN Grand Prix has been decided~!<ref>To read about the previous Grands Prix, see [[The Clockwork Heartbeat/Epilogue|The Clockwork Heartbeat, Epilogue]] and [[Act 8/Episode 7|Act 8, Episode 7]].</ref>}}
