Tsuzuru | Ouch, ouch, ouch! Citron-san, don’t do that! |
Citron | Oh! Suddenly I can fly! We can fly! You can fly! |
Tsuzuru | I’ve told you, you’re going to make the grease splatter all over if you do that…! Ouch, ouch, ouch! |
Yuki | Why are we having tonkatsu for breakfast… |
Omi | This is probably a good omen, you know? |
Tsumugi | Isn’t this Citron-kun’s way of supporting us? |
Guy | I see. |
Azami | ...Director, look at this. |
Izumi | ? |
Shifuto We’re gonna perform a totally different play tomorrow. |
Shifuto Let’s fight fair and square. |
Izumi | Eh, so that means they’re changing the whole script? Is that even possible… |
Azami | I don’t think he’s lying. He’s not that kind of guy. |
| Since he’s going to go on stage as the lead actor, I think he can’t accept such things. |
Izumi | ...I see. |
Guy | So we shouldn’t worry over plagiarism for now… |
Taichi | That’s a relief! |
Omi | I wonder if they changed it because we found out about it. |
Tasuku | Since they’re going to get caught on D-Day no matter what, I feel like it’s just strange to change the script now. |
Sakyo | Maybe there’s also some issues within GOD-za. |
Tsumugi | In any case, this is great news, given that those are Tsuzuru-kun’s important lines. |
Tsuzuru | I was wondering what would happen if they had kept the script. |
Izumi | Even though it was a sudden change, there’s no way GOD-za will deliver something bad. We have to stay focused, okay? |
Sakyo | Don’t let your guard down. |
Azami | Shuddup, we know that already. |
Citron | Now, eat up! You can’t fight on an empty sumac! |
Tsuzuru | It’s stomach! |
Taichi | W-Whoa! What’s with this extraordinary amount of garlic chives! |
Citron | Oops, I made a lil mistake! It’s superstition! |
Guy | Thank you for the meal, I’ll enjoy it… |
Tasuku | You have a strained look on your face, you know. |
Tsuzuru | Please don’t force yourself, okay!? |
| |
Izumi | I’ll reconfirm our schedule for today. |
| Once the cast members enter the dressing room, we’re going to start dressing and applying the makeup. |
| Yuki-kun, Azami-kun and I are going to ride with Tasuku-san along with our costumes and props. |
Yuki | Okaay. |
Azami | Got it. |
Tasuku | I can have two more people ride in my wagon. Who wants to ride with me? |
Omi | If I’m not mistaken, there’s some stuff we have to carry at the theater, right? |
Izumi | Yup. Since we’re gonna carry some of the stage setting props today, I’ve contacted Tetsuro-san. |
Tsumugi | Those who have confidence in their strength should ride the wagon, then. |
Guy | I’m in. |
Izumi | I’m counting on you, Guy-san, Omi-san. |
Omi | Okay. |
Sakyo | Nanao, Tsukioka, should I take you there with my car? |
Tsumugi | No, it’s all right. The theater is within walking distance. |
Taichi | I’ll walk there too! |
Sakyo | Fine, then. Don’t be late. |
| |
Tsumugi | Okay, shall we get going? |
Taichi | Yeap. |
Banri | Are you goin’ to the theater now? |
Juza | We’re gonna accompany you until Veludo Way. |
Taichi | Huh? Do you have something to do today, Ban-chan, Juza-san? |
Banri | We’re gonna perform a Street Act before the show starts. |
Juza | I just can’t keep my calm when I realize that the Showdown Act will take place soon. |
Banri | I planned that first, though. |
Juza | I moved first. |
Banri | I went out of the room first, y’kno. |
Juza | Aaaah? |
Banri | Haaaaah? |
Taichi | There, there. Don’t fight! |
Tsumugi | Fufu. Let’s go part way together. |
| |
Hooligan A | … |
Juza | —. |
Banri | …? |
Tsumugi | What’s the matter? |
Banri | No, it’s just… somehow—. |
Juza | Who the fuck are y’all? |
Hooligan A | … |
Hooligan B | … |
Banri | What do y’all want? |
Tsumugi | Sorry, but we’re in a hurry here—. |
Hooligan A | ...Haaah? I can’t hear ya. |
Juza | Don’t tell me, y’all ain’t gonna let us go? |
Banri | Did GOD-za send them? |
Taichi | Eeeh!? |
Tsumugi | No, at a time like this, I don’t think—. |
Hooligan A | Now, will ya be a good boy and listen to us? |
Hooligan B | We don’t wanna hurt y’all, ya see. |
Banri | Let’s run away for now. |
Juza | Yeah. |
Banri | Over here! |
Taichi | O-Okay! |
Hooligan A | —Shit, hold on, ya fuckers! |
| |
Tsumugi | *pants* *pants*... |
Banri | Shit, they’re too persistent…! |
Juza | And more are coming. |
Banri | Reinforcements, huh? We’re gettin’ nowhere at this rate. |
Taichi | What should we do? We may not make it in time at this rate… |
Tsumugi | Let’s call the police—. |
Banri | Nah, we’re gonna get held up then. We won’t make it in time. |
| ...Hey, Hyodo. |
Juza | Haah? |
Banri | Take Tsumugi-san and Taichi with you. |
Juza | —. |
Banri | I’ll deal with them somehow. |
Juza | But with those number of people… |
Banri | There’s a chance you’ll still be ahead, y’know. I leave those two to you. |
Juza | —. |
Banri | Just go! |
Juza | —Let’s go. |
Banri | Tsumugi-san! Taichi! Run after that ham! |
Tsumugi | But Banri-kun…! |
Banri | Just go! You’re gonna make that person acknowledge you, aren’t you!? |
Tsumugi | —. Please be safe—! |
Taichi | Sorry, Ban-chan! We’re gonna win against GOD-za for sure! |
Hooligan A | —Wait! |
Banri | Whoops, I’m not gonna let y’all get away, y’kno? |
Hooligan A | Ugh—Fuck off! |
| *fighting sounds* |
Banri | I actually don’t want to make Director-chan and the others worried, but… this sure is tough, huh? |
Hooligan A | —I’ve told ya to fuck off, dipshit! |
??? | You sure got a lot of people to fight one person, huh. |
| *punches* |
Hooligan A | Urrgh—! |
Banri | Hey, old man… who are you? |
??? | Old man? Is that how you speak to someone who helped you out? |
| *more punches* |
Hooligan B | —ugh! |
Banri | Sorry ‘bout that—! |
| *more punches* |
Hooligan C | Aargh—! |
| |
| *even more punches* |
Hooligan A | Bleeergh!! |
Banri | ...This should be enough to buy some time. |
??? | Should we throw them off the track? |
Banri | Yeah. |
|
??? | —. |
Banri | —blep. |
Hooligan A | S-Shit—. |
Hooligan B | Wa-Wait…! |
| |
Banri | Thanks for the help. |
??? | I believe you have confidence in your strength, but don’t push yourself too hard. They’re not law-abiding people, I tell you… |
Banri | Who are you really, old man? |
??? | Don’t call me old man. I’m running a dinner theater nearby. |
Banri | ...I’ve never heard of this restaurant before. |
Zen | What about you? Are you a student? Why were you being surrounded by that bunch? |
Banri | Ah well, a lot happened… I’m an actor at a theater troupe called MANKAI Company. |
Zen | MANKAI Company… |
Banri | We have four troupes, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter—. |
Zen | I know. |
Banri | Oooh? I’m Banri Settsu, Autumn Troupe’s leader. |
Zen | —. |
| Hahaha… |
Banri | Why are you laughing? |
Juza | Hey, Settsu! |
Banri | Aaah? Oh, so you’re back. |
Juza | I made them ride a taxi. How about tho—. |
Banri | They’re sleeping at the riverbed now. You’re slow. |
Zen | You… |
Juza | ? |
Banri | This old man right here helped me. |
Juza | Thank you. |
| |
Nachi | Hire me here one day. |
Zen | Haah? What are you saying all of a sudden? |
Nachi | It’s fine, right? |
Zen | I don’t need anyone who only knows how to fight. |
| |
| You… Have you ever come to my restaurant? |
Juza | Restaurant? |
Zen | So he just happens to look like him, huh… |
| My restaurant. |
Juza | It looks high-end. |
Zen | Bring other members of your troupe next time. I’ll give you all free food. |
Banri | You better be careful. This guy here has one hell of a sweet tooth. He’s a total glutton for sweet things. |
Zen | Our chocolate cake is exquisite. See you later. |
Banri | ...What a strange old man. |
Juza | Chocolate cake… |
Banri | Stop drooling. |
Juza | I’m not. |
Banri | Shall we go to GOD-za Theater too, then? |
Juza | Yeah. |
