Interview
— Please tell us your thoughts on the cover shoot for this issue. | |
Sakuya | The concept for the cover this time was having everyone in MANKAI Company give presents to our customers, so we were placed in a gift box with ribbons attached to us...... |
Banri | We tried holding bunting as well? When I first heard about it I thought it was a bit too fanciful shooting it with a bunch of guys, but it ended up looking quite natural. |
Tsumugi | Since it's like we're saying, 'we're the present~', it was a little embarrassing after all, though...... |
Tenma | You ran with that flight of fancy the most, holding those colorful balloons, Tsumugi-san, so you should hold your head high. |
Banri | Tsumugi-san's thin, so while he was holding the balloons I thought he might be floating several centimetres. |
Sakuya | He played an angel, so it kind of feels like he can actually fly! |
Tsumugi | I wasn't floating, and I can't fly......What do you all think I am? Though, before the Winter Troupe's final performance, we did all talk with the director about it possibly being interesting to use wires someday to try flying for real. |
Tenma | What with how small the MANKAI theatre is, hanging from wires would have zero impact. |
Sakuya | But I'd like to challenge myself to it someday! I wonder what it feels like! |
Banri | For a start, what sort of role would require flying anyway. |
Tsumugi | Hmm......We've already done angels, so butterflies or dragons, maybe? |
Tenma | What play in the world has roles for butterflies and dragons!? |
Sakuya | Ahaha. But if it's Tsuzuru-kun, I reckon he'd make it interesting! |
— We've heard you've had several leader photoshoots in the past. Have you grown more comfortable with them since your first time? Also, please tell us if anything went on behind-the- | |
Sakuya | Tenma-kun is always bold and confident, so he's good at putting on expressions! You really are used to this sort of photoshoot, aren't you? |
Tenma | That's right. When I appear in movies they take plenty of still shots too. But I am used to it. |
Banri | Sakuya aside, our elder Tsumugi-san is always the most awkward. |
Tsumugi | Well, I really am bad with this sort of thing......I always have a lot of photos taken, but in the end my expression goes weird. It'd be nice if I could smile more naturally. |
Banri | On the days we have photoshoots, this guy's awkward right from the morning. He's unusually nervous. |
Tsumugi | And Banri-kun, who can't stand seeing me like that, makes me coffee in the holding room. He's simply kind. |
Banri | It's no big deal; I drink it too, so while I'm at it......I might as well. |
Sakuya | But being treated kindly when your nervous really does make you happy. |
Tenma | In the first place, our theatre's got a lot of mothering guys in it. |
Banri | Yeah. At the photoshoot the other day, all the guys in the Summer Troupe came by in succession to see how Tenma was doing. |
Tenma | Those guys were just messing around......Honestly. |
Sakuya | Everyone in the Spring Troupe sends good luck messages on LIME when I have a shoot! |
Tsumugi | Eh? Even Masumi-kun......? |
Sakuya | He'll only send a stamp. It might just be that Tsuzuru-kun's telling him to since they room together, though...... |
Banri | I can understand it if that's the case. Well, the guys in the Autumn Troupe don't really care when it's my day for a shoot. |
Tsumugi | Hehe. Actually, Sakyo-san and Omi-kun ask me to tell them after how you were during the shoot. |
Sakuya | They're like parents......! |
Tenma | Moreover, they're like parents who have a kid going through the rebellious phase of puberty. |
Banri | Who the heck's going through puberty! Speaking of, the Winter Troupe members don't come to the shooting location, even though they're pretty overprotective of Tsumugi-san. |
Tsumugi | Ern......This is embarrassing, but they send me off at the entrance to the dormitory on the morning itself......though Hisoka-kun is mostly asleep. They all know I'm not good with this sort of photoshoot. |
Tenma | That's completely overprotective! |
Sakuya | Really, all the troupes have kind members! |
— Please tell us what MANKAI Company's future plans are. You can tell us if there's anything you're personally aiming to do, too! | |
Sakuya | While we'll be rotating through the second play for each troupe from now on, we plan to put on regional plays too. |
Tenma | When you change towns, the atmosphere of the audience changes too. No matter what the circumstances, it's important to act as per usual. |
Banri | You're really serious about the weirdest things. It's fine to just take it as a trip. |
Tenma | 'The weirdest things'......!? I mean, on the other hand, you're too lax. As a leader, you should be more serious...... |
Banri | Ahh, even you're lecturing me? I've got enough of that with Sakyo-san. |
Tsumugi | It's important to be moderate in both bearing responsibility and letting yourself relax. Most importantly, you need to take care with your physical condition. There are bound to be some longer trips, and it's easy for your health to crumble when you're in an unfamiliar place. |
Sakuya | That's right! First I have to work on Itaru-san's habit of staying up late...... |
Banri | Impossible. |
Tenma | That was quick! |
Banri | Give up on that guy. There's no way you'll fix that. |
Sakuya | As I thought...... |
Tsumugi | Now, now. Itaru-kun is an adult too, so if it comes to that he'll think about it a little. ......Maybe. |
Sakuya | A-As his leader, I believe in Itaru-san! |
Tenma | Once we get to regional plays, the next step is to hold plays abroad, huh. |
Banri | Oh, nice. The south seems good. Theatre seems popular there? |
Tsumugi | I don't know whether or not that's true, but I think you just want to go there...... |
Tenma | Speaking of which, didn't Citron say he was born on a southern island? |
Sakuya | Yeah! On a small island, with a gigantic treasure house of marine life in the nearby seas, famous for giant squid senbei! I kind of want to try them! |
Banri | What's with this southern island and its giant squid senbei!? That's weird! |
Tsumugi | It doesn't seem delicious at all...... |
Sakuya | Really? |
Tenma | Well, in terms of divining the truth, I'd like to go to Citron's country. |
Tsumugi | It'll be a triumphant homecoming play for Citron-kun. |
Sakuya | Plays abroad......Our dreams are spreading out! I'd like lots of people to see our plays! |
— Finally, let's have a message to the fans. | |
Tsumugi | Then, I'll start. Once again, this is the leader of the Winter Troupe, Tsumugi Tsukioka. The Winter Troupe has lots of people who go at their own page, but I think it's coming together as a team bit by bit. In very little bits, though......Looking to our second play, I'd like to improve on both our acting and our teamwork. Please continue to support us in the future. |
Banri | This is the Autumn Troupe's leader, Banri Settsu. The Autumn Troupe is currently proceeding with preparations for its second play. The content is different again from our debut, so definitely come see it. It shows off even more difficult action sequences. We're going to continue doing things our way, so cheer us on. That's all from me. Then, next is the egotistical yet serious and reliable leader, Tenma Sumeragi-kun. |
Tenma | Don't give me a weird introduction! I'm the Summer Troupe's leader, Tenma Sumeragi. It's rare for us to have the opportunity to do a troupe feature book, so I'm glad we were able to talk about a lot of things today. The Summer Troupe is also carrying out the final tweaks to its second play. If we focus exclusively on comedy, our audience will soon tire of it. It takes some trial and error, but I'd like us to master our own brand of comedy. Please continue to support us from here on as well. ......Finally, Sakuya. |
Sakuya | Thank you very much for reading up to this point! We in the Spring Troupe are striving hard every day at practice, trying to connect the successes and failures in our second play to our next! Look forward to the Spring Troupe's third play......Right now, I'm already impatient to stand on stage again! |
Tenma | One theatre isn't enough, huh. |
Banri | Ahh, I get that. Thinking about the behind-the-scenes work involved, it's difficult, but only being able to perform plays one troupe at a time makes the frustration build up. |
Tsumugi | Hmm, I think the capacity of the theatre is a little lacking at the moment, too. |
Sakuya | It's proof that the troupe members are growing steadily! Everyone in MANKAI Company will work hard so we can show you better and better plays! From here on out...... |
Sakuya/Tenma/ Banri/Tsumugi | Please continue to support us! |
Announcement

Masumi | ......I'm Julius' actor, Masumi Usui. |
Sakuya | This concludes the play for today......Wait, Masumi-kun! Where are you going!? |
Masumi | I'm leaving it to you. |
Sakuya | You can't! Didn't you promise the Director we'd do it together today? |
Masumi | ......A promise with the Director... |
Sakuya | That's right......Ah! I'm very sorry......Today, everyone in the Spring Troupe will be there to see you off in the lobby! |
Masumi | Please help us by filling out the questionnaires. The Director stays up late every night reading through them, so I'd like you to write something if you can. But if you write too much, she won't get enough sleep, so do it in moderation. |
Sakuya | M-Masumi-kun, you can't say that sort of......! Umm, we'll be happy if you write lots on the questionnaire, so please help us out there. Please forget what Masumi-kun just said! |
Masumi | Please forget it. |

Itaru | Focus on the announcement, you two. By the way, I'm Itaru Chigasaki, from the Spring Troupe. |
Citron | Ohh, sorry, yeah. I'm Citron, from the Spring Troupe. We went all out again today, so our hearts are boiling [T/N: orig. wakiwaki] with our sense of accomplishment! |
Tsuzuru | We're excited [T/N: wakuwaku], you mean. Say, how many times is this! Remember it already! |
Itaru | Come on, don't yell into the microphone. You'll shock the audience, right? |
Tsuzuru | Ugh......It's such a reasonable argument I can't talk back. |
Citron | You're a macho adult today, Itaru. |
Itaru | A proper [T/N: mattou] adult? I'm always trying to be one, though...... |
Tsuzuru | Ahh, enough; it's a pain so let's continue. Today everyone in the cast is going to see you off! |
Citron | Shake hands with me before you leave! |
Itaru | We're happy to give hugs too. |
Tsuzuru | Ah, and also. We'd be glad if you could fill out the questionnaires. We're encouraged by your thoughts on the acting, the script and the production. Of course, we don't mind harsh opinions! Those become a point of reference for the future! |
Citron | If you praise my Japanese, I might get more lines in the future! I'm in your care! |
Itaru | No cheating. |
Tsuzuru | Oops, we've gone overtime. Erm, once more, thanks for tothay...... |
Citron | Ohh, as expected of Tsuzuru! |

Tsuzuru/Itaru/ Citron | Thank you very much! |
Summer Troupe
Tenma | I'm Ali Baba's actor, Tenma Sumeragi. Did you laugh to your heart's content today? ......Alright, it seems like you did. Apparently there's going to be a raffle for my autograph in the lobby. You didn't throw away your ticket stub, right? Get it before you go home. See you. |
Yuki | I'm Scheherazade's actor, Yuki Rurikawa. To the people who were sitting to the left, if you picked up the magic lamp Misumi threw as an ad-lib it'd be a help if you could return it to a staff member. Then, finally......'I'll tell you again tomorrow, one of a thousand tales......' That's all. Bye bye. |
Muku | Thank you very much for coming today! I'm Sinbad's actor, Muku Sakisaka. Everyone, how was the play today? I'll be glad if you enjoyed it at least a bit. Please take care not to leave anything behind! |

Yuki | I'm Scheherazade's actor, Yuki Rurikawa. I met several of you before the play. |
Tenma | ...... |
Yuki | ......It's the good-for-nothing actor's turn next. |
Tenma | ! M-Me?! ......Say, don't call me a good-for-nothing actor in this sort of place! |
Yuki | You mean it's okay elsewhere? |
Tenma | That's not the issue! Geez, what'd you eat to grow up that cheeky!? In the first place, you're...... |
Yuki | You're mic'd up, you know? Don't blame me if the Director gets mad at you. |
Tenma | We'll put this conversation aside for now. Umm, taking pictures or videos during the performance is strictly prohibited. This is common knowledge. |
Yuki | Please refrain from eating or drinking in your seat. If you get thirsty, please go to the lobby. |
Tenma | One more thing. If you'd like to laugh, we'd like you to laugh as hard as you want. There's no need to hold back. |
Yuki | Of course, that's as long as you're not bothering those around you. |
Tenma | Make sure you get yourself hydrated now. |
Yuki | You're the one who needs to keep hydrated. Don't collapse during the actual performance. |
Tenma | Hmph, you too. |
Yuki | Of course. |
Tenma | The play is about to start. Don't take your eyes off of us. |

Misumi | Ah, that's right! I'm Misumi Ikaruga from the Summer Troupe~ It's written "triangle" but pronounced "Misumi"! That's all you have to remember! |
Muku | T-That's not all, Misumi-san! They have to remember our acting too! |
Kazunari | That's right! We're going to make our mark on your hearts with our full-strength acting ♪ Ah, that's right. We have some announcements to make! |
Muku | Umm, I'll read them out. Please refrain from taking photos or videos during the performance. No eating or drinking in your seat. Please tern off your mobile phones. |
Kazunari | Obviously that includes tablets too~! |
Misumi | Please and thank you! |
Kazunari | Hey, hey. Shall we do that specially today? That thing we always do before starting! |
Muku | That, huh! |
Misumi | Let's do it, let's do it~! |
Kazunari | When I say, 'Summer Troupe, fight!', you all say, 'Yeah!'~! |
Misumi | You can say, 'Triangle~!' too~. |
Muku | Then...... |
Kazunari | Summer Troupe, fight! |
Muku/Misumi | Yeah! |
Muku | Ehehe, I'm a bit embarrassed. Please wait just a little more for the play to start. |
Autumn Troupe
Banri | This concludes the Autumn Troupe's debut play, 'How Wonderfully Picaresque'......I'm Luciano's actor, Banri Settsu. How was our play? There was quite a big response today, so you'll definitely come again, right? |
Juza | I'm Lansky's actor, Juza Hyodo. As for today's performance......there are points to reflect on, but I think we were able to show you something good. Ahh, take care not to leave anything behind. It'll ruin the afterglow. |

Sakyo | I'm Capone's actor, Sakyo Furuichi. We'd be grateful if you could write something about the play today on the questionnaire forms on your seats. The Autumn Troupe is still a unit that is passing checkpoints on its journey. The results of those questionnaires will become a guiding light to us in the future. |
Middle Day ①
Banri | ......Oi, c'mon, you picking a fight? Huuh? |
Juza | Haah? You're snapping over me tripping a little? |
Banri | It's your complete lack of remorse that I can't stomach. |
Juza | Who can keep up with you picking fights over everything? |
Banri | What'd'ya say? ......Huh? Shit, the mic's already on. |
Juza | What!? |
Banri | Ahh......thank you very much for coming to the play today. I'm Banri Settsu, from the Autumn Troupe. |
Juza | I'm Juza Hyodo, from the Autumn Troupe. |
Banri | Before we move on to the performance, we have a couple of announcements to make. Listen well. Firstly, no photography or video recording during the performance. If we find you, we'll crush the camera or whatever it is. |
Juza | Secondly, please turn off your mobile phones or any other electronic devices that make noise and put them in your bags. Sorry. |
Banri | Finally, in the case of an emergency, keep calm and obey the staff's instructions. |
Juza | Don't cause trouble for the other patrons. |
Banri | We can see your seats veeery well from the stage. If we spot anyone acting in a bad-mannered way, we'll kill you. |
Juza | No mercy. |
Banri | Well, we don't think there's anyone here who'd act like that, though. So wait a bit more until the play starts, okay? |
Juza | Please watch our resolve to the end. |
Middle Day ②
Sakyo | Thank you very much for coming today to the MANKAI Company's Autumn Troupe's debut play, 'How Wonderfully Picaresque'. I'm Sakyo Furuichi from the Autumn Troupe. |
Omi | I'm Omi Fushimi, from the same Autumn Troupe. |
Taichi | I'm the youngest in the Autumn Troupe, Taichi Nanao! I'm in my second year of high school, and my blood type is~...... |
Sakyo | Oi, I said to introduce yourself, but I didn't say to go into that much detail. |
Taichi | I'd like to make the ladies' hearts clench here! |
Sakyo | Idiot. Grab the customers' hearts with your acting. |
Taichi | S-Sakyo-nii, you're so cool......! |
Omi | Haha. Let's move on to the main topic. Before the play starts, we have several requests to make. Firstly, please turn off your mobile phones. It'd be bad if they rang during the performance. |
Sakyo | Next, video recording and photography from your seats is not permitted. They'll be confiscated immediately if found, so remember that. |
Omi | Please refrain from eating or drinking in your seats. We'll take a fifteen minute break in the middle, so we'd like you to go out to the lobby for refreshments then. |
Taichi | We're also selling troupe goods and play pamphlets in the lobby! When you're hungry, we recommend the MANKAI Company's signature item! "Kamekichi Steamed Buns"......wait, can we recommend this!? |
Omi | T-That's right......but Juza thought they were delicious and ate them, so depending on the person...... |
Sakyo | That Matsukawa, sneakily adding this in...... |
Taichi | U-Umm, we only recommend this to people with an extremely sweet tooth! |
Omi | Then, that's all from us. |
Taichi | We hope you enjoy yourselves to the end~! |
Sakyo | The play will start in approximately five minutes. Don't take your eyes off the stage for even a second. |
Winter Troupe
Tsumugi | Thank you very much for coming today. It's a quiet story, so please refrain from talking during the play. Also, we recommend having your handkerchiefs out and ready from the start. That's all from me. I'm Michael's actor, Tsukioka Tsumugi. |
Tasuku | Thank you very much for coming today to the Winter Troupe's debut play, 'Sympathy for the Angel'. I'm Raphael's actor, Tasuku Takato. The play will start very shortly......It's unlike me, but I'm a little nervous. Look forwards to the curtains rising. |
Hisoka | I'm Uriel's actor, Hisoka Mikage. I was told to read off the notes, so I will. Thank you very much for coming today. Before the play begins, we have several requests to make. Please turn off your mobile......pho......Zz...zZz...... |
Homare | So you came today. I'm Metatron's actor, Homare Arisugawa. No matter how moved you are by my beautiful, angelic figure, please refrain from taking photos or videos during the performance. I'll make my mark on your heart rather than on data! That's a promise. |
Azuma | Hello, everyone. Today's greeting will be brought to you by me, Phillip's actor: Azuma Yukishiro. We're really glad you came to meet us. The performance will start in a moment, so take your seats now. Then, I'll see you again. |
Middle Day ①
Tsumugi | Umm......Huh, the microphone switch is...... |
Tasuku | It's already on. The light there is on. |
Tsumugi | Eh? Ah, it's true. Say, then the audience can hear this......! I-I'm very sorry! Thank you very much for coming today. I'm the Winter Troupe's Tsumugi Tsukioka. |
Tasuku | I'm Tasuku Takato, from the same Winter Troupe. Today after this, we plan on having a cast talk. Please join if you'd like. |
Tsumugi | The cast talk will......be about our roles, and......drunk stories we can only tell now......? I wonder if I have something......I don't think I do, but...... |
Tasuku | ............ |
Tsumugi | Hold on, don't stay quiet! Could it be that there is something......? |
Tasuku | You really don't remember. That time at summer training camp in our third year of university. |
Tsumugi | I remember going on the training camp, but......did I do something? I don't even remember drinking alcohol...... |
Tasuku | Sigh......Well, we'll leave that story for another time. Our time's about up, so we'll finish here. |
Tsumugi | Ah, I-I see......I'm sorry this turned into a poor closing talk. I hope you enjoyed it at least a little. |
Tasuku | It'll just be for a short time after this, but please look forward to the cast talk. |
Tsumugi | Once more, thank you for coming to watch today. We'll see you again later. |
Middle Day ②
Homare | Ladies and gentlemen, did you enjoy yourselves today? I'm the Winter Troupe's Homare Arisugawa. |
Azuma | I'm the Winter Troupe's Azuma Yukishiro. Hehe, I can still hear sobbing voices. Cute. |
Hisoka | ............ |
Homare | Come on, Hisoka-kun, wake up, please. |
Azuma | Ahh, we ran out of marshmallows. Shall we open another bag? |
Homare | Honestly, what a troublesome child. Here, Hisoka-kun, a new marshmallow. |
Hisoka | ......*chomp*. ......Mm......Good morning. |
Azuma | Hisoka, greet the audience. You were told by the Director to do the closing speech with me and Homare today, right? |
Hisoka | That's right. I'm the Winter Troupe's Hisoka Mikage......Thanks for coming today......Is that good? |
Azuma | Yeah, well done. |
Homare | Please do write your thoughts from today on the questionnaires left on your seats. They'll be our references in the future. |
Azuma | Hehe, looking at the questionnaires is pretty interesting. Speaking of, there was even a portrait in yesterday's. |
Hisoka | It looked like Arisu. |
Homare | My acting has become the impetus for creative work......Wonderful. |
Hisoka | I'm tired already...... |
Azuma | We don't have many marshmallows left either. Over to you, Homare. |
Homare | Hmph. Well then, I shall present a poem to you as thanks for coming today......Mm~ Innocent drea — *snap* |
