| Banri | —So that's everyone. Well, I guess I’m the last one. |
| |
| Izumi | ...... |
| (Banri-kun's portrait is completely different from before....) |
| (Because he was talented, he couldn't feel passionate about anything. But when he lost for the first time in his life—to Juza-kun—he began to change...) |
| (As if he were inspired by Juza-kun's passion for acting, he grew more and more interested in the stage....) |
| Banri | "—For the first time in my life, I found something I could get serious about." |
| Izumi | ——. |
| (Banri-kun's feelings come across powerfully. They’re just as strong as Juza-kun's—.) |
| Banri | I'm definitely gonna crush you on stage as well. |
| Juza | ..... |
| Banri | ...That's all. That's my portrait. |
| Izumi | Banri-kun, it got so much better! |
| Omi | Yup. Juza's was really good too, but Banri's is just as powerful. |
| Izumi | And Taichi-kun's, too.... |
| Taichi | ——. |
| Sakyo | I understand your feelings now. It must’ve been hard. |
| Omi | I'm sorry I couldn't understand. |
| Juza | You did something that shouldn’t be forgiven. But I forgive you. |
| Banri | Well, which is it? |
| Omi | Condemn the crime, not the criminal. He means he forgives Taichi himself. |
| Taichi | ——. |
| I still want to act with everyone... |
| Izumi | Taichi-kun.... |
| Banri | Where do you belong, Nanao Taichi? |
| Taichi | —Eh? |
| Banri | Are you Nanao Taichi of GOD-za? Is that who you truly are? |
| Taichi | I’m—. But I can't ask for that much—. |
| Banri | It’s fine, just say it. |
| Juza | You just need to tell us where you feel you truly belong. |
| Izumi | It's all right, Taichi-kun. |
| Taichi | I’m—. |
| I'm MANKAI Company's—Autumn Troupe’s—Nanao Taichi! |
| Banri | ...Well done. |
| We'll definitely protect you. We'd never hand you over to the rotten lot over at GOD-za. |
| Juza | Yeah. You don’t have to stick around with guys who have no respect for the stage. |
| Sakyo | They’re a disgrace to anyone involved with theatre. |
| Omi | You can stay here with us, Taichi. |
| Taichi | You guys—. |
| Banri | Everyone! No matter what GOD-za does, we're gonna make tomorrow's performance a success! |
| Juza | Yeah. |
| Omi | Yeah! |
| Sakyo | Of course. |
| Taichi | Yeah—. |
| Izumi | (We’ll be all right—no matter what they do to us, we won't lose. We'll definitely pull through with this performance...!) |
| |
| Banri | ...... |
| Juza | ...... |
| Banri | ....Oi, you're awake, right. |
| Juza | ....What. |
| Banri | Tomorrow's the final performance.... I can't sleep. |
| Juza | ....Go to sleep. |
| Banri | You're not sleeping either. |
| Juza | You woke me up. |
| Banri | Stop lying. You snore so loudly that I can tell whether or not you're sleeping. |
| Juza | Your sleep-talk is louder. |
| Banri | I don't talk in my sleep. |
| Juza | You were muttering some idol's name nonstop yesterday. |
| Banri | Stop lying!! |
| Juza | Shut up. You’re gonna wake everyone up. |
| Banri | ..... |
| Juza | ..... |
| Banri | ..... |
| Juza | ....Oi. |
| Banri | .....What. Weren't we going to sleep. |
| Juza | ...Your portrait back there. It was good. |
| Banri | ....Of course it was. |
| But I still don't feel like I've won at all. |
| I finally found something rewarding. It’s your fault. |
| ...In the end, you’re the one who makes me passionate. |
| I'm definitely gonna beat you, so get ready. |
| Juza | Zzzz..... |
| Banri | You're asleep!? |
