Izumi This is GOD-za’s theatre… Tasuku For some reason it feels like it’s been such a long time. Tsumugi This place really is huge… Azuma It has more than double the number of seats we have. And as far as I can see, it’s a full house. Izumi Which means that there’s just that many people who came to watch! Hisoka …GOD-za’s performance is starting. Homare Now then, it’s time for them to show us what they’ve got. Izumi … (I heard the rumors, but it really is a costly performance.) (The lead actor changed costumes three times, and they have a flashy staging that uses projections.) (And what’s more… water!?) Tsumugi A staging that uses water… Amazing… Tasuku …They’re the same as ever. Azuma Rather than a theatrical performance… it’s more like a show. Izumi What an amazing standing ovation. Audience A Kya— Haruto—! Audience B Haruto—!! Tasuku Looks like there’s a lot of GOD-za fans. Izumi …Let’s change focus and concentrate. Tsumugi You’re right. We should hurry and set up— Izumi (We’re done setting up. Five more minutes until the curtain rises…) Tsumugi … Izumi (As expected, they’re feeling the pressure. GOD-za got a standing ovation right in front of them after all.) Izumi Tsumugi-san, are you all right? Tsumugi Huh? Izumi Are you nervous? Tsumugi Right… I am nervous. But… I want to be here. That’s all I can think about right now. Izumi I see. (I always felt the same when I used to stand on stage. But things are different now…) Just like the actor I saw back then, I wanted my own role that I can keep playing with confidence. I wanted a place to belong. One week… Can you give me just one week? If not then I’ll give up. I’ll even show up in practice too. I liked your acting when you were doing street acts in Veludo Way, so similarly, I did my best too. I will believe in you and follow you, Director. Right now, it’s kind of like… Never before in my life have I felt this fired up, that I can only laugh. All together now – Summer Troupe, fight! “…Thank you, Alibaba.” For this last one, I want all of us to put on our best performance together – the best performance that only we can do at this very moment. Wow, it’s a standing ovation! It’s making me so emotional, I— That was so much fun~!! Theater is interesting~! —I know that I suck. But I wanna act, no matter what. Please let me join the theatre company. Now, it’s not just his. It’s my dream now too. …I’ll make you regret making me go all out. I, as I thought – I want to act with everyone here… I don’t care what GOD-za plans to do; we’re definitely gonna make the play a success tomorrow! Izumi (I want to go out there and watch all of you forever, as you go on stage in full bloom and return.) (I never thought about anything like this before I joined this theatre company…) (I’m no longer Tachibana Izumi the actor. I’m now Tachibana Izumi, the general director.) Announcer The show will begin shortly. Izumi …Everyone, today may be your last opportunity to stand on stage together with these members. Do it so you won’t have any regrets! Tsumugi Yes. Tasuku Yeah. Tsumugi Oh yeah, why don’t we form a huddle? Tasuku Huddle? Homare This is quite embarrassing. Azuma I haven’t done this since I was a student. Hisoka …Let’s do it. Tasuku So, what do we yell out? Tsumugi …I didn’t think about that. Tasuku What’s with that. Homare How disorganized. Tsumugi I’m sorry. …I may be unfit to be a leader. From beginning to end, I was always worrying and hesitating, and I kept causing trouble for everyone. But I love this play that we created together. I want to do more. I don’t want this to be the end. I want to stand on stage with these members again and again. That’s all I’m thinking right now. Tasuku There’s no way that this’ll be the end. Azuma I also want to keep going with everyone. I want to be on stage with all of you. Homare I feel the same way. I feel like I can connect with all of you. Hisoka …This is the place where I belong. Tsumugi Yeah— Let’s go.
