SakyoAzami, raise your voice there.
Azami....
SakyoYour movements are also too small.
Azami...Tch. Why do you need to comment on everything?
Izumi(It’s Azami-kun’s first practice since joining the troupe. Sakyo-san is really into it. Azami-kun complains, but he’s following Sakyo-san’s advice....)
Azami-kun, you’ve gotten better since last time.
Azami...Hmph.
Izumi(It’s a strained atmosphere, but I guess this is also a type of motivation?)
(But I want Azami-kun to be motivated by more than just rivalry towards Sakyo-san—I want him to enjoy theater itself....)
TsuzuruNice work~.
TaichiHuh? What’s up, Tsuzuru-kun?
IzumiAh, we’re already there. Let’s hold our meeting now.
JuzaMeeting?
IzumiIt’s about time to decide on a theme for our next performance.
BanriAh, we’ve got six people, so we need to start preparing, huh.
OmiI wonder what kind of play it’ll be.
TaichiI can’t wait to see!
TsuzuruI’m thinking of following Spring and Summer Troupe’s examples and making the newcomer, Azami, the lead, and the leader, Banri, the second lead. What do you think?
OmiI think that’s fine.
BanriAgreed~. Chikage-san and Kumon both grew dramatically after playing the lead.
JuzaSounds good.
IzumiWhat do you think, Azami-kun?
AzamiFine with me.
Izumi(Th-that was fast... He really is bold. He was like that during his first performance, so I guess he doesn’t feel any pressure from playing the lead.)
You’re fine with it too, right, Sakyo-san?
Sakyo...I think it’s fine. If he can handle it, that is.
AzamiAah?
Izumi(They’re getting to be like Banri-kun and Juza-kun....)
TsuzuruOkay, then, what’s left is the theme... Is there anything in particular you want to do, Azami?
AzamiIf I’m going to do it, I want a show where I can do tons of makeup.
TsuzuruMakeup, huh.
Juza...That sparkly thing, huh.
BanriWhat the heck?
JuzaThat thing where they come dancing down the stairs in frilly outfits.
TsuzuruPfft.
Izumi(Is he talking about that famous all-female musical troupe[1]...!? Th-that would definitely require tons of makeup, but...!)
BanriThere’s no way you can pull off something like that!
JuzaAah?
TaichiAh! How about a visual kei band!?
OmiYeah, that requires makeup too.
JuzaSo we’re all gonna whiten our faces and have long hair....
IzumiIf it’s a band, then the singer is Banri-kun, with Juza-kun or Azami-kun on guitar....?
TaichiSounds good! The bass is Sakyo-nii, I’ll play the keyboard, and Omi-kun is the drums!
TsuzuruThat might actually suit you.
SakyoSpare me.
BanriWhen you say makeup, does special effects makeup count too?
AzamiI’ve never done that, but I think I can handle it with research.
BanriWell, it doesn’t have to be professional, but we can go for something like that?
TsuzuruSpecial effects makeup, huh.
JuzaHow about zombies or the undead?
BanriYou can pull it off without makeup.
JuzaYou’re the last guy I wanna hear that from.
BanriAah? How the hell is my face like a zombie?
OmiSeems like a tough world, like in Stranger.
TaichiWe can include tons of action scenes! Sounds good!
TsuzuruThis sounds like fun.
IzumiTsuzuru-kun, do you have something in mind?
TsuzuruYeah. I’ll try writing up a plot.
IzumiI’m counting on you!
Tsuzuru....
Azami...Hey.
TsuzuruHm?
Azami...Is that the plot for the script?
TsuzuruYeah. I’m putting stuff together right now.
AzamiCan I make a request?
TsuzuruA request? You’re not allowed to ask for fewer lines.
AzamiThat’s not it.
TsuzuruWhat is it? I’ll hear you out.
AzamiMake shithead Sakyo an enemy.
TsuzuruHah?
AzamiHe goes on and on about every little thing during practice. If he’s the enemy, I think it’ll be a lot easier for me.
TsuzuruYou’re getting a little too personal here.
Well, I’ll consider it. No promises though.
AzamiI’m counting on it.
Tsuzuru...Geez. Making requests right after joining the troupe? He’s some big shot.
An enemy, huh....
BanriFucker, how many times do I have to tell you? Don’t leave your dirty laundry lying around the room!
JuzaAah? I’m still gonna wear it.
BanriWhat the hell!? Your shit smells! Stop leaving it around!
JuzaWell you smell like hair styling shit.
BanriYou’re fucking dead—!
TaichiHelp me~! Autumn Troupe, assemble!
Izumi?
TaichiBan-chan, Juza-san, now’s no time for fighting! This is an emergency!
Banri—The heck?
JuzaWhat’s wrong?
TaichiWell, there’s an art appreciation day tomorrow at my little sister’s preschool, and....
The troupe that was supposed to go cancelled because of an accident. At this rate, the whole thing is going to be cancelled....
My sister looks forward to it every year! I’d feel awful if it were cancelled! This is her last year!
IzumiBut if the whole troupe can’t make it, they can’t even have stand-ins perform....
TaichiThat’s why I want everyone in Autumn Troupe to put on a performance!
BanriWait, at a preschool....?
JuzaUs? Autumn Troupe?
OmiWith a preschool audience...?
Izumi(What kind of performance are we supposed to do...!?)
