Taichi | Awesome! You look so cool! |
Azami | It screams, this is the hunter look. |
Izumi | Amazing, Yuki-kun! |
Omi | The undead don’t look that eerie, huh. |
Sakyo | I thought you were gonna make us wear rags or something. |
Yuki | I would never make ugly costumes. |
Izumi | Try holding your outfits in front of your bodies, everyone. |
Banri | All that’s left is the makeup. |
Azami | I’ll do it one person at a time. Sit down, Banri-san. |
| |
| .... |
Sakyo | That hurts. |
Azami | Oh, I just couldn’t control my strength. |
Sakyo | You think you can be a pro like that? |
Azami | Shut up. Stop talking. I’m gonna stuff this brush in your mouth. |
Sakyo | ——. |
Izumi | (Since it looks like his relationship with Omi-kun has improved, now the only problem is these two...) |
| |
Omi | “Gugaaaah!” |
Sakyo | “Ugaaah!” |
Passerby A | !? |
Passerby B | A street act!? |
Passerby C | Zombies? Looks interesting! |
Izumi | (Good, we got their attention. Now—.) |
Banri | “You don’t belong here. Get the hell out.” |
Azami | “Let’s clean them up fast. We need money for dinner.” |
Taichi | “Don’t worry, I know!” |
Passerby A | These guys are the hunters! |
Passerby B | Nice! They look so cool! |
Izumi | (Azami-kun has really gotten used to etudes. I think he’s having fun.) |
Juza | “MANKAI Company’s newest performance, <<DEAD/UNDEAD>>. Drop by and take a look.” |
Passerby A | Please give me a flyer. |
Passerby B | Me too—. |
Izumi | (Yup, yup. Doing a street ACT with the same theme as the performance was a good idea. The guests look really interested.) |
Azami | “Hurry up and die, you bastard!” |
Sakyo | “That’s my line—.” |
Izumi | (I’m glad Azami-kun can do etudes naturally now, but when he’s talking to Sakyo-san, he just reverts to his usual self.) |
| (They’re enemies, so it works for now, but when he goes too far, he falls out of role...) |
Azami | “The hunters always win this sort of thing!” |
Sakyo | “Who the hell decided that!?” |
Izumi | (I should probably stop them—.) |
Banri | “Shit—I’m out of ammo. Let’s retreat for now.” |
Taichi | “Run, run!” |
Azami | “——.” |
Izumi | (Thank goodness. Banri-kun and Taichi-kun pulled back.) |
| |
Passerby A | That was good! |
Passerby B | Good luck with your performance! |
Banri | Thanks~. |
Omi | Thanks. |
Taichi | Be sure to come check us out! |
Azami | .... |
Sakyo | .... |
Izumi | (I wonder why Azami-kun hates Sakyo-san so much....) |
| (Unless we solve their underlying problem, we can’t put on a good show.) |
| |
Sakoda | Well then, aniki, I’ll be taking my leave now. |
Sakyo | Yeah, thanks for your hard work. |
Azami | ...Oh, shit. |
| Ken-san, can you bring me my bag from home? It has my textbooks. You can bring it tomorrow. |
Sakoda | Oh, sure, I’ll bring it over later—. |
Sakyo | Go get it yourself. |
Azami | Aah? |
Sakoda | ...Ah, he has a point. It might be better to show your face at least once, you know? |
Azami | I don’t wanna run into that shitty old geezer. Please, Ken-san. |
Sakoda | If you say so. I don’t really mind. |
Sakyo | Don’t use Sakoda as your errand boy. |
Azami | Ken-san doesn’t belong to you. This has nothing to do with you. |
Sakyo | He’s my underling. |
Azami | That doesn’t mean you get to decide everything for him. |
Sakoda | Oh no... Calm down, both of you...! |
Sakyo | The problem here is that you’re taking advantage of your status to use Sakoda. |
Azami | Look who’s talking! |
Sakyo | —What? |
Sakoda | C’mon, Azami, calm down. |
Azami | —I can’t stand on stage with this guy. It’s impossible. He pisses me off too much. |
Sakyo | Then quit! We don’t need some careless guy who won’t stand on stage just because he doesn’t like the other actors. |
Azami | ——. |
Sakyo | Hmph. |
Izumi | Ah, Sakyo-san—! |
| |
Sakyo | .... |
Izumi | .... |
Sakyo | ...Look, I’m calming down right now. Leave me alone. |
Izumi | .... |
Sakyo | .... |
Izumi | ...Azami-kun is the only person you fight with so childishly, Sakyo-san. |
Sakyo | Despite everything, I’ve known him for a long time. |
| I guess I revert back to my old self—to when I first met him. |
| I was assigned to be his caretaker when I was just a little over twenty years old. I spent all my time being irritated because I had to deal with a brat. |
Izumi | So even you were like that, Sakyo-san. |
Sakyo | I feel the same way dealing with you, you know. From time to time I feel like I’m a kid again. |
Izumi | Are you saying you get irritated because you feel like you’re dealing with a child? |
Sakyo | .... |
Izumi | At least deny it! |
Sakyo | I’m just saying it brings back memories. |
Izumi | Then that’s fine.... |
| ...Why does Azami-kun hate you so much, Sakyo-san? |
| He wasn’t always like that, right? |
Sakyo | ...Yeah. We argued, but he was still attached to me. |
Izumi | Then why—. |
Sakyo | ...It’s only natural for him to loathe me. |
Izumi | Eh...? What do you mean? |
Sakyo | .... |
