Chikage | Next is the 5th performances... Chigasaki's turn to film. |
Izumi | Right. It's fine as long as he didn't go too far... |
Izumi Chikage-san's filming is over! Next is Itaru-san's turn, so can I ask you to come back to the room? |
|
|
| *door opens* |
Itaru | GW~. |
Izumi | That was really fast?! |
Itaru | ? I told you I'd come ASAP. |
Izumi | That's true, but... I figured that you'd gone to a game center or a convenience store or something. |
Itaru | I was in the common room. The students were working on their homework, you see. |
Izumi | Were you helping them? |
Itaru | I was spreading KniRoun propaganda. |
Izumi | That's what you were doing...? |
Chikage | You were actually just in their way. |
Itaru | Now, now. It's important to take breaks, too. |
| By the way, the subject is English, so if you go, Senpai, I think Tsumugi-sensei will be happy. |
Chikage | Then I guess I'll go help out. |
Itaru | K, baton pass. |
| *high-fives* |
Chikage | Don't go into full otaku-mode and trouble Director-san. |
Itaru | I'll do my best. |
| *door closes* |
| Well, let's hurry and get started. |
Izumi | Itaru-san, you're surprisingly motivated. |
Itaru | Well, we're talking about KniRoun, after all. Ok~ay, wonder what I'll get. |
|
Izumi | The theme is "something that gave you goosebumps"! |
Itaru | H~mm, goosebumps, huh... In that case, it's gotta be that. |
| The seventh day's soiree. |
| *beep* |
| As you can see, because of the consecutive performances, my HP was already in the red... |
Izumi | It's true that you seemed like you were struggling at that time. |
| |
| (The finale of the story, the scene where he reconciles with Gawain——) |
Gawain | "——Hah!" |
Lancelot | "——! Ugh!" |
| *slash* |
Lancelot | "... !?" |
| *falls* |
| Maybe it was because I let my guard down, but I was slow on my reaction and I tripped really hard. |
Arthur | "What are you doing, Gawain...!" |
Gawain | "I told you that I haven't forgiven you yet, didn't I?" |
Lancelot | "..." |
Gawain | "But that doesn't change the fact that you're my friend." |
Lancelot | "——." |
Izumi | (His line isn't coming out. But...) |
Gawain | "Lancelot." |
Arthur | "... Lancelot." |
Lancelot | "----!" |
Lancelot | "Gawain... Will you lend me a hand?" |
Gawain | "You're hopeless. ... Here." |
| |
Itaru | I messed up on the important last scene, and my head went blank. I even forgot my lines after that part, and I totally got goosebumps, but... |
Izumi | The other two's adlibs were able to connect the scene together. |
Itaru | That's right. |
| At that moment, Citron and Senpai embodied their characters completely... I could even see the background as the game's landscape. |
| That gave me goosebumps in a different sense. |
| That scene, and of course everything outside of it... I won't ever forget any of it. ... I'd love to become Lancelot again one day. |
Izumi | Of course you'll be able to. |
| That being said, I'm so glad that you weren't injured when that happened. |
Itaru | ... Um, well, the truth is, since I fell and landed on my hip, it was actually really, really sore. |
Izumi | What!? It was!? |
Itaru | I guess it's something like I had an adrenaline boost on the stage... While I was still Lancelot, I didn't want to seem lame. |
Izumi | (That's just how important Lancelot is to Itaru-san...) |
| While I do understand your feelings on the matter... If that was the case, why didn't you talk to us about it? |
| If it became serious... |
Itaru | Sorry, sorry. But after I treated it, it was fine——. |
| If it seemed like I couldn't handle the injury, I was planning on telling you guys about it, not hiding it like I did during RomiJuli. |
| And with that, I guess the commentary is done. If I remember correctly, next is the message video. Go ahead anytime. |
Izumi | ... You're going to film it wearing that? |
|
Itaru | No good? I'm planning on playing KniRoun after this, and everyone's already used to seeing me like this, so isn't it fine? |
Izumi | That's true... But it's our important commemoration video! Please change your clothes. |
Itaru | Huh~... What a pain... |
| |
| K, we successfully finished filming the video, too. GW GW. |
Izumi | Thank you for all your hard work. |
| *violin playing* |
Itaru | ... Hm? |
Izumi | This is... Citron-kun's violin? |
Itaru | An elegant reminder. Just as you'd expect from royalty. |
Izumi | Hehe, you're right. |
| |
| *knock knock; door opens* |
Citron | Director! I was waiting beaverly for you~! |
Izumi | Eagerly, not beaverly. Sorry for the wait, Citron-kun. |
Citron | Yes. Then, please come over here. |
Izumi | (Even though he's usually such a joker, at times like this, he's such a gentleman and acts in a smart manner.) |
| (It's an amazing gap, but that's a part of Citron-kun's charm.) |
| Here. This is the dice that decides the theme for the video. |
Citron | Oh~! It looks just like the ones on TV! I always wanted to try doing this once! |
| Here we go~! Mmmmm... Haaa!! |
|
Izumi | The theme is... "best performance." |
Citron | I did it! I wanted to land on this theme! My psychokinesis powers worked on it! |
Izumi | Is that so? Then is there a scene that you want to pick? |
Citron | Yes! The one I want to choose is this scene, of course! |
| *beep* |
| |
Izumi | (It's the last concert scene from the Zahran performance.) |
Katsumi | "..." |
Yu | "...!" |
Yota | "..." |
Ennis | "..." |
Izumi | (The four exchange glances, and Citron-kun, who's playing the role of Ennis, smiles gently and nods...) |
| In Zahra, there were subtitles, but the actual words weren't able to come through. |
| That's why you four naturally put more emphasis on your expressions and glances during these performances than when we were in Japan. |
Citron | To make up for our words not being able to reach the audience, we all talked about paying more attention to our movements, expressions, and tone of voice. |
Yota | "♪~~" |
Citron | Masumi's violin got a lot better than during our final performance in Japan! He definitely did sneaky practice! |
Katsumi | "♪~" |
Yu | "♪♪~~" |
Izumi | (Sakuya-kun and Tsuzuru-kun's movements are really smooth, too. Their sound is recorded, but it feels like you can actually hear their music...) |
Ennis |
- "♪~♪~~"
|
Citron | At that moment, I believe our sound was able to overlap. |
Izumi | Mhm. |
| (It wasn't just their sound. I'm sure their hearts were able to overlap as well...) |
| |
| That was really beautiful. That's without a doubt the best performance. |
Citron | Thank you, Director. |
| But in the future, I'll show you the best-best performance that surpasses this~! |
Izumi | Right! I'm looking forward to it. |
| |
Citron | The message comment is also perfection! |
Izumi | (Hehe, that was explosive just like Citron-kun.) |
| *door opens* |
Sakuya | I'm home! |
| ——Ah, I'm so sorry! Did I interrupt the filming? |
Citron | Welcome home, Sakuya! |
Izumi | It's okay, we just finished up. Good work at your part-time job. |
Sakuya | Thank goodness. Director and Citron-san, good work on your filming, too. |
Citron | Ohh? Sakuya, you seem to have a lot of luggage? |
Sakuya | I was given some trial dishes from the Western restaurant I'm working part-time at! Shall we eat it with everyone? |
Citron | Ohh! Yes, I'd love to! |
Izumi | Now that you mention it, I am feeling a little hungry. Then, let's LIME the other members of the Spring Troupe. |
Sakuya | Right! |
Sakuya I was given some trial dishes from the Western restaurant I'm working part-time at, so would everyone like to eat them together? |
Citron Lather in Boom 101! |
Chikage Utsuki Gather and not lather, I assume. |
M.U Is the Director there, too? I'll be there in 5 seconds. |
Masumi | Director. |
Izumi | Masumi-kun!? |
Sakuya | He arrived at the same time as the LIME!? |
Citron | Rather than 5 seconds, he got here in 2! |
Tsuzuru | It's because he stood up as soon as the LIME came in, and he was basically answering as he left the room... |
Citron | Tsuzuru, welcome on in! |
Itaru | I was about to hit a save point, so wasn't it fine to wait for me to get there. |
Chikage | Even at the fastest pace, it would take 15 minutes to get to the next save point. |
Itaru | ... Are you a strategy guide? Just how much play time have you accumulated? |
Sakuya | Since everyone's here, let's dig in. |
Tsuzuru | Heh~ everything looks delicious. |
Itaru | Ooh, there's pizza. |
Masumi | What do you want to eat? I'll pick it out for you. |
Citron | Ohh! What a cute shape! Is this a croquette? |
Sakuya | The manager said that this was the new shrimp croquette! This one over here supposedly used a spicier flavoring. |
Chikage | Heh... I'm looking forward to trying that. |
Izumi | (Hehe, everyone is smiling wonderfully...) |
| (You can sense the irreplacable bond that's formed between them after going through so many performancees together.) |
| It's warm... |
Sakuya | Director? |
Izumi | No, it's nothing. Let's eat! |
