Masumi So look over here, and… there it disappears. Chikage Right, you’re good. As expected, you really have a dexterous hand. Masumi Everyone can do this much. Chikage If you tell that to Chigasaki, he’ll get angry at you. But you have quite a repertoire of magic tricks now, don’t you think it’s time to try putting on a formal show? Masumi I’ll only put on a show for Director… Chikage If it’s for that purpose, then you might need to polish the magic tricks even further… Misdirection technique might be effective, it’s a necessary trick to get Director-san to enjoy it. Masumi … Chikage Memo? You wrote on that memo sometimes, what have you actually been writing? Masumi It’s a note on how to grab hold of Director’s love. Chikage Vol.26 huh… Masumi It’s the 26th one. Chikage As usual, your dedication towards Director-san is amazing… Masumi I’ll do anything to be able to become her ideal man. Chikage Anything, huh… to have such a passionate love for something, I wonder what kind of feeling it would be. Masumi You want to know? Chikage I’ll refrain if we’re talking about love stories. Masumi You won’t understand anyway, so I won’t start. Chikage Haha. Even Masumi, are you going to treat me like a man with no romance? Izumi Ah, the two of you, can I have a bit of your time? Masumi – Chikage Right when we’re talking about it, right. Masumi What happened? Izumi There’s something I need to talk to you about. *Shifts to Living Room* Tsuzuru What are we talking about? Izumi I just had a talk with Sakyo-san and the manager… There are a lot of attention on the troupe now because of GOD-za’s and 1st generation’s act-off, as well as the all-out performance on “Spotlight”. Citron Oh, it’s crawling through the tension! Masumi Boiling. Itaru There’re really a lot of GOD-za’s fans and the 1st generation fans when you pay closer attention. Sakuya Even for “Spotlight” as the special feature, I was so nervous at first but I’m glad that it seemed popular out there! Chikage It’s all thanks to Kasumi-san’s editing skill. Izumi From then, I have received a lot of inquiries regarding our local performances… Then from this, I thought we should go for an attack instead. In order to realize the value of Mankai entrusted by the 1st generation, we should aim to level up and improve the popularity of the theatre company while improving the performance level of each individual. Tsuzuru-kun will also take steps to further improve on his ability to write for our performances… Tsuzuru Yeah. In order to be able to match the stories that Hakkaku-san made, as expected I still need a lot more experience. Izumi That’s why, while still working on our local performances, I would like to plan for new performances that would highlight the strength of each troupe. It’s exactly because we received a lot of attention now, shouldn’t we use this chance to redefine the strength of each group? Sakuya I want to do it!! Citron I’m pretty sure there’re a lot of fans out there who’re still waiting for us! Masumi I think it’s a good idea. Itaru Why not? It might be a good change to all the Mixed Plays we’ve been doing as well. Chikage I agree as well. We’ve only done one lap of ‘lead’ for Spring Troupe performances after all. Tsuzuru You’re right. Izumi Is there anyone here interested to take the ‘lead’ role this time? Masumi I want to do it. Izumi That’s fast. Masumi I’ll do anything to rekindle your love. Tsuzuru There’s nothing to rekindle over there. Itaru So there’s a motive for some returns. Chikage Your character’s too consistent. Masumi Not only the Spring Troupe performances, I have taken many roles even in Mixed Play and act-off. The me right now would be able to shine brighter as a ‘lead’ compared to my time during Alice. As the chairman, I think I would be able to put on a much better performance than that time, and I want to show it to you. Izumi I see… (Alice was only our second performance for the Spring Troupe and everyone had very little experience back then. Since then, everyone has accumulated a lot of experience. The bond among the members has also deepened, we might be able to make a performance that portrays Masumi-kun much better now.) Chikage I see. Masumi As the chairman, huh. Sakuya I think the Masumi-kun right now will be able to do it! I’ll also support you! Citron I also a breeze! Tsuzuru Agree you mean. Well, I think it’s good for Masumi to be the ‘lead’. Izumi Alright, then, it’s decided that Masumi-kun will be the lead! Masumi I’ll do my best.

Masumi Do this, and this... And make it disappear now. Chikage Yep, nice job. You really are skilled. Masumi Anyone could do this much. Chikage If you say that to Chigasaki, he'll get mad. That being said, your repertoire of magic tricks has increased quite a bit. How about arranging them into a show form soon? Masumi I'll make it a show just for the Director... Chikage In order for that, you'll have to polish your speaking skills during your sleight of hand. Misdirection is effective, and it's essential in order to make Director-san have fun. *scribbling noises* Masumi ... Chikage A memo? You write in that notepad sometimes. What are you writing? Masumi It's my notes to help me capture the Director's heart. Chikage Vol.26... Masumi This is my 26th notepad. Chikage Your obsession with the Director is impressive as always... Masumi In order to become her ideal man, I'll do anything. Chikage Anything, huh... I wonder what it feels like to love someone that passionately. Masumi Want to know? Chikage I'll decline on the love gossip. Masumi I'm sure you wouldn't understand, so I wasn't going to tell you from the beginning. Chikage Haha. You're going to treat me as unromantic, too? Izumi Ah, you guys, do you have a little time? Masumi ——. Chikage Speak of the devil, as they say. Masumi What's the matter? Izumi There's something I'd like to talk about. Tsuzuru What did you want to talk about? Izumi I already talked about this with Sakyo-san and the Manager, but... Because of our Showdown ACT with GOD-za and the first generation members, and because of our special feature in "Spotlight," our theater has been attracting a lot more attention. Citron Ooh, we're the seated topic of conversation! Masumi Heated. Itaru It's pretty big that the GOD-za and first gen fans are giving us attention. Sakuya I was nervous about the photoshoot for "Spotlight's" feature, but I'm glad that it's been well-received! Chikage We'll have to be grateful for Kasumi-san's authority as editor-in-chief. Izumi We've received many inquires about the regional plays that we've kept up with as well, but... I think this is where we should go on the attack. The first generation members have entrusted us to make the Mankai Performance a reality, and in order to to do that, we have to add to our theater's reputation. I'd also like to plan for each individual's own leveling up. Tsuzuru-kun has also said that he would like to gain more experience and become more capable before he confronts writing for the Mankai Performance... Tsuzuru Yep. I really do think I need more experience before I can face Hakkaku-san's script draft. Izumi So with that, while keeping the schedule for our reshowings in mind, I'd like each troupe to do a round of new performances, which is the strength of our theater. It's exactly because we're attracting so much attention right now that I'd like to redefine each troupe's strengths right now, too... What do you guys think? Sakuya I want to do it!! Citron I'm sure there are lots of fans waiting, too! Masumi I think it's good. Itaru Isn't it fine? We've been able to experience mix performances in general, and it was good stimulation. Chikage I agree, too. For Spring Troupe performances, if I remember correctly, we just finished each of us performing as the lead. Tsuzuru Yeah, that's right. Izumi Is there anyone who wants to play the lead? Masumi Me. Izumi That was fast. Masumi I'll make you fall in love with me all over again, again once more. Tsuzuru How many times are you going to say again. That's way too many agains. Itaru It's "The Dishonest Ulterior Motives: Part 2." Chikage Way too predictable. Masumi I've gotten more experience in not just the Spring Troupe performances, but also in the mix performances and the Showdown ACT, too. Right now, I'm sure I can shine more as the lead than I did during Alice. As the leader, too, I think I can do it better now than back then. I want to show you that. Izumi I see... (During Alice, it was just our second performance, and everyone didn't have much experience, so we had our hands full, if I remember correctly.) (He's deepened his bonds with the rest of the Spring Troupe, so he might be able to fit into the central role better this time.) Chikage I see. Itaru As the leader, huh. Sakuya If it's the you of right now, you can definitely do it, Masumi-kun! I'm cheering for you! Citron I vote hay, too! Tsuzuru You mean yay. Well, as for Masumi being the lead, I think it's good. Izumi Okay, then, it's settled that Masumi-kun will be the lead! Masumi I'll work hard.
