Izumi | (We accepted the Shinsengumi actors' offer to teach us, and now they're personally teaching us how to perform during fight scenes, but...) |
Hijikata's Actor | When you're doing this stance, put your feet like this. Then, hold your arms like this——. |
Sakyo | I see. The posture for this is——. |
Yamanami's Actor | If you swing your katana like this, it's more eye-catching. |
Chikage | Interesting... Like this? |
Masumi | ——! |
Saito's Actor | Good, good! You're pretty skilled! Have you done a performance with fight scenes in it before? |
Masumi | Well... Yeah, a little. |
Kondo | For fight scenes, the side that's being cut down also requires quite some technique. For example... |
| First, strike at someone! Then after they sweep it away, strike again, then they counterattack, and then you fall——. |
Sakuya | That's amazing...! |
Omi | As you'd expect, his form has a strong appeal. |
Taichi | Even without an opposing actor, I can totally see the scene playing out! |
Citron | I'll obtain these skills, too, and I'll show off being cut down perfectly! |
Harada's Actor | Rather than a katana, how about a spear? You're pretty tall, so I think it'd suit you. |
| I usually use one like this. |
Banri | Seems fun. It looks like it'd feel good to spin it 'round a bunch. |
Tsuzuru | ——h! |
Azami | Haa——! |
Nagakura's Actor | Strike again from the right! Yeah, yeah! |
Izumi | (They're all focused on working on their technique. It looks like their range of proficiency with fight scenes will get broader.) |
Kondo | You guys are amazing, even more amazing than I thought. |
Todo's Actor | Yeah, it's true that they're understanding the basics, but the more we teach them, the more they remember, and their sense is good, too. |
Hijikata's Actor | How about it, Kondo-san. Should we have them partcipate, too? |
Kondo | I was thinking of that, too. |
| Hey, if you're up to it, would you like to play the casualties in the show we're putting on here? |
Tsuzuru | A show? |
Kondo | The truth is, the day after tomorrow, we're going to have a play featuring the Shinsengumi. |
| If we increase the amount of casualties, it'll be more eye-catching, and if it's you guys, you'll learn the movements fast. |
Sakyo | After only a short period of studying fight scenes, we'll be putting that knowledge to use... It'll be a good experience, so why not. |
Izumi | That's true! |
Kondo | Then, it's settled! Since that's the case, I'd better go all out on my advising! |
Taichi | Thanks! I'm looking forward to working with you! |
| |
Itaru | ——gh. |
Okita's Actor | Hey, hey, you're backing away. |
Itaru | I'm sorry, I'm not very good at things involving athleticism... |
Okita's Actor | Hmm... In that performance back there, you were the closest to Okita, though... |
Itaru | Huh? |
Okita's Actor | You nailed his atmosphere. Do you like the Shinsengumi? |
Itaru | Rather than liking the Shinsengumi... They appear in the game that I've been playing lately. |
| I like Okita the most... So I might have unconsciously tried to act like him. |
Okita's Actor | Huh, is that so. |
| If you really work on practicing fight scenes, I think you'll be just like Okita. |
Itaru | ... |
| |
Juza | ——. |
Shimada | You've got good swordsmanship! |
Juza | ... Thanks. |
| Um, you play Shimada, right. Shimada Kai was... |
Shimada's Actor | Yeah... He isn't as well-known as Kondo-san, Hijikata, or Okita, but I still act as him with pride. |
Juza | No, that's not what I meant... |
Shimada's Actor | ? What's the matter? |
Juza | ... He made sweet red bean soup, right. |
Shimadaa's Actor | Yeah, he did! Wow you know a lot! |
Juza | ... A little while ago, someone told me about it. |
Shimada's Actor | The truth is that I'm just like Shimada, and sweets are the only thing for me. Is it possible that you like sweets, too? |
Juza | ... I do. |
Shimada's Actor | ... In that case, I'll train you specially in something else, too. |
Juza | ? |
