Student A | “I guess Kikukawa will take over the final part in the fashion show this year.” |
Student B | “That makes sense. It’s like a hopeless fight.” |
Student A | “I want to pair up with Kikukawa~.” |
Student B | “That’s impossible. There are a lot of students from the model department who say the same thing. Besides, isn’t it obvious that Koga will pair up with him?” |
Student A | “Ah~. Speaking of Koga, it looks like he’ll take part in a collection runway show too. We won’t have any chance at all if he pairs up with a pro.” |
| “But well, if I can’t be his model, I don’t mind becoming his girlfriend. I can marry into the family who owns that high-end brand KIKUKAWA.” |
Student B | “I’ve told you it’s impossible.” |
Student A | “If I can’t pair up with Kikukawa, Hayama will do.” |
Student B | “Hayama, huh. The competition is fierce if you want to make a pair with him. I heard he’s going to finally start up his brand, after all.” |
Student A | “Sighs. Now that I look at the reality, I think it’s better to find a partner quickly.” |
Student B | “Right. You’re going to fail otherwise.” |
Student A | “I don’t want that!” |
Student B | “Well, the model department has more students than the design department, after all. I don’t think we can fail if the gap isn’t too big.” |
Student A | “IF the gap isn’t too big, right.” |
Mikami | “...” |
| |
Koga | “Kikukawa, have you found your model?” |
Kikukawa | “I haven’t.” |
Koga | “Why don’t you pair up with me, then? I can meet your high demands, Kikukawa.” |
Kikukawa | “...I’ll think about it.” |
Hayama | “Hmm, so you haven’t even decided on your pair. You sure are calm.” |
Kikukawa | “It’s not like I have time to be calm.” |
Hayama | “Well, you can always use KIKUKAWA’s models when push comes to shove.” |
Kikukawa | “We’re not allowed to do that for the final project.” |
Hayama | “But if it’s someone from KIKUKAWA, they will allow it, right?” |
Kikukawa | “.....” |
Hayama | “Let me tell you something: the final part this year will be mine.” |
Kikukawa | “Yeah, okay.” |
Izumi | (Similar to the first design, Yuki-kun and Masumi-kun’s costumes are casual uniforms, but…) |
| (Each costumes have distinctive features that suit their own characters.) |
| (The three of them have high pride even in the play, so it’s great that they can show how the sparks are flying right from the start.) |
| |
Kikukawa’s Mother | “Final project is just some student’s games, right. Even if they manage to catch the industry people’s attention, it’s just because their work is new and original.” |
Kikukawa | “......” |
Kikukawa’s Mother | “You’re already a professional. You should prioritize your job. Don’t put too much focus on your homework.” |
Kikukawa | “--.” |
Kikukawa’s Mother | “What? Do you have something to say?” |
Kikukawa | “...No.” |
| |
Teacher | “Is everyone here?” |
| “For the time being, I will give supplementary lesson to those who fall behind in their final project…” |
| “This will be like a meeting between those who haven’t found their pair for the show. Those who have found their partners can go home.” |
Student A | “Hey, hey. Do you want to pair up with me?” |
Student B | “Sure. I’ll be in your care~.” |
Student C | “Let’s discuss our concept on our way home.” |
Student D | “Okaay.” |
Mikami | “.....” |
Kikukawa | “I’m late.” |
Student A | “...Eh, Kikukawa?” |
Student B | “I wonder if he hasn’t found his model.” |
Student C | “No way. Why hasn’t Kikukawa found his?” |
Teacher | “Come in and sit. I’ve already explained this, but you can’t make progress in your final project if you haven’t found your partner. You better hurry and choose yours.” |
| |
| “Have you all chose your partners? Then, all that left is--.” |
Mikami | “......” |
Kikukawa | “Hey, Mikami. You don’t have a partner yet?” |
Mikami | “Eh…? Y-Yeah.” |
Kikukawa | “Then, do you want to pair up with me?” |
Mikami | “Eh!?” |
Student A | “You must be lying. He chose Mikami.” |
Student B | “There’s no way Mikami can wear Kikukawa’s clothes.” |
Mikami | “--.” |
Kikukawa | “Do you hear me?” |
Mikami | “But I--.” |
Kikukawa | “Are you going to pair up with me or not? State your answer clearly.” |
Mikami | “--I-If you’re fine with me.” |
| |
Kikukawa | “I get it that you’re short, but it turns out your walking is also bad, huh.” |
Mikami | “So-sorry…” |
Kikukawa | “Do something about it until the D-day.” |
Mikami | “Say, why did you choose me, Kikukawa? There are other models that you can choose, and yet…” |
Kikukawa | “--I don’t really have any particular reason. I’m fine with anyone, so I just chose among the remaining people. Anyone will look decent in my outfits, after all.” |
Mikami | “--I, I see. You have a point.” |
Kikukawa | “......” |
Mikami | “But for someone like me, I might still be hopeless even if I wear Kikukawa’s clothes…” |
Kikukawa | “What are you saying? Are you making fun of my design?” |
Mikami | “I’m, I’m not! It’s just, I don’t have any talent as a model, I don’t have any sense and I’m short…” |
Kikukawa | “We can’t do anything about your short height. But the others are your problems, you know.” |
Mikami | “But--.” |
Kikukawa | “--Aaargh, so annoying! Fine. I’m going to completely revamp you!” |
Mikami | “--.” |
| |
Kikukawa | “You’re not staying in the lines. Do it again.” |
Mikami | “--Y-Yes!” |
Kikukawa | “Your posture is bad.” |
Mikami | “Yes.” |
Kikukawa | “Look at the front.” |
Mikami | “Ah, yes!” |
Kikukawa | “That one is really not good.” |
Mikami | “Ugh…” |
| |
Kikukawa | “You should make the side part more neat and tidy and add more volume to the top. Yeah, that looks good.” |
| “You’re short, so you’ve got to be careful with your silhouette. It’s basic common sense to understand your figure and choose things that suits your size.” |
| “Besides, you’ve chosen the brand that you admire--or something like that, right. You’re being rude to the clothes for not wearing outfits that suit your size.” |
Mikami | “Uh… you’re right. Poor clothes being worn by someone like me.” |
Kikukawa | “Hey, put on this one.” |
Mikami | “Huh?” |
Kikukawa | “This one perfectly fits in your body. It really suits your aura, too.” |
| |
Mikami | “You’re right… I can’t believe there are clothes that look good on me.” |
Kikukawa | “What are you saying? Of course there are.” |
Mikami | “--Thanks, Kikukawa. I’ll do my best so that I can wear your clothes.” |
Kikukawa | “--.” |
Mikami | “Kikukawa? What’s wrong?” |
Kikukawa | “Nothing.” |
Izumi | (Yuki-kun and Taichi-kun are perfectly in sync. Since the script is written after deciding on the roles, they play their roles naturally and perfectly.) |
| (Next is Mikami’s performance in the latter half…) |
| |
Teacher | “You will showcase your development process at this show. Regardless of your turn and evaluation, the result will merely be temporary.” |
| “You are also allowed to show the current state of your work. Think of this as something that will help you control the flow of your performance.” |
Mikami | “We are the third from the last… I’m nervous.” |
Kikukawa | “......” |
Mikami | “Kikukawa?” |
Kikukawa | “--.” |
Mikami | “Are you all right?” |
Kikukawa | “Is this really the time for you to worry about other people?” |
Mikami | “N-No. Well, you’re right.” |
Kikukawa | “I don’t plan to show such a halfway-done work at this time.” |
Mikami | “Kikukawa’s design is flawless! If it’s not, then I’m to blame for that…” |
Kikukawa | “......” |
| |
Student A | “Hm? Is that Kikukawa’s design?” |
Student B | “Hmm, looks like it.” |
Student A | “Hmm.” |
Student E | “Maybe it’s because the model is Mikami, but don’t you think it doesn’t look that great?” |
Student F | “I mean, if I were to be honest, Kikukawa’s design isn’t that great in the first place.” |
Student E | “Ah, I also thought that a little. It feels like he only has the popularity of his parents’ brand, you see?” |
| “Even his own brand is basically KIKUKAWA’s secondary lines, right.” |
Teacher A | “Hayama is currently in the lead.” |
Teacher B | “I wonder what happened to Kikukawa. Unlike usual, his work is lackluster.” |
Teacher A | “He might get his hands full on his business.” |
| |
Kikukawa | “......” |
Koga | “That was such a poor performance. Wasn’t it because you chose the wrong model?” |
Hayama | “The problem is beyond that. I don’t get a sense of style from your design. It looks shallow.” |
Kikukawa | “--.” |
Mikami | “It’s not Kikukawa’s fault. It’s because I’m the model--.” |
Koga | “That’s obvious. An ignorant amateur like you will only ruin any clothes you wear.” |
Mikami | “--.” |
Hayama | “I’ve told you before. It doesn’t have anything to do with the model. The level of your design is low. I’m disappointed. You’re just riding on your parents’ coattails.” |
| |
Mikami | “Sorry, Kikukawa. I’m going to work harder.” |
Kikukawa | “Why are you saying that when you already work that hard--.” |
Mikami | “Huh?” |
Kikukawa | “......” |
Mikami | “Are you all right, Kikukawa…?” |
Kikukawa | “You asked me why did I choose you before, right.” |
Mikami | “Yeah.” |
Kikukawa | “I thought that if I paired up with a talentless model, they would purely evaluate my design.” |
| “I want them to purely look at my design, and not because I am the son of KIKUKAWA who has it all--.” |
Mikami | “...I see, so that’s the reason. If that’s so, why do you give me special training?” |
Kikukawa | “I got irritated seeing you being all hesitant.” |
Mikami | “I, I see.” |
Kikukawa | “But you’ve worked hard and began to change. It makes me worried whether I’m good enough.” |
| “But my eyes are open now. The model isn’t the problem here. I need to think of a way so that I won’t lose sight of my design. That’s the most important thing.” |
| “I’m stupid for minding what people say about me, that whole ‘he’s riding on his parents’ coattails.’” |
Mikami | “...I was able to change because of you, Kikukawa.” |
| “I managed to get into the model department that I had been longing, but I’m short. I don’t even have sense and aura. I was hit by reality.” |
| “But then you talked to me, who has given up my dream and grew timid, Kikukawa.” |
| “No matter what your reason was, I would not be able to change for eternity if that didn’t happen.” |
| “I might be no match for Koga as a model, but I want to wear your outfit, Kikukawa.” |
| “I want to show the charm of Kikukawa’s design more than anyone else.” |
| “I’ll do anything in order to achieve that goal. That is why I want you to use me as your model.” |
Kikukawa | “I have no intention to change model even if you don’t say that. I could get over my doubts because of you, Mikami.” |
| “I’ll create an outfit that will make you shine the brightest. The ones who are going to land that last spot at the show are us.” |
Mikami | “Last spot.. Me…” |
Kikukawa | “It’s an obvious result. You’re going to wear Lily. K’s clothes, after all.” |
Mikami | “Y-Yeah. You’re right.” |
Kikukawa | “I’ll be in your care, as an equal this time around.” |
Mikami | “Me too!” |
| |
Kikukawa | “You already memorize the programme, right?” |
Mikami | “Yes.” |
Koga | “Heh, so you’re still participating even after being told such things.” |
Mikami | “Kikukawa’s model is me, after all.” |
Koga | “--.” |
Hayama | “I hope you don’t embarrass yourself again during the show.” |
Kikukawa | “I think you should worry about yourself rather than other people.” |
Hayama | “Looks like you’re back to your usual self.” |
| |
Student A | “I expect no less from Hayama’s design~.” |
Student B | “That looks good. I want it.” |
Student A | “Others’ designs look like something that are made by students, but Hayama’s is certainly different. He receives a lot of applause.” |
Student B | “Isn’t he pretty much confirmed to take the last spot, then? Who’s next?” |
Student A | “The highly touted Kikukawa.” |
| |
Kikukawa | “--It’s our turn.” |
Mikami | “I’m going.” |
Kikukawa | “Be confident. That’s the clothes I made for you, Mikami.” |
Mikami | “Yeah. I’m not anxious anymore, since I’m a part of your design, Kikukawa.” |
Kikukawa | “Okay--Go.” |
Mikami | “--.” |
| |
Student A | “Whoah…” |
Student B | “As expected of Kikukawa.” |
Student A | “But don’t you think the model is small? He’s as tall as female models.” |
Student B | “I think he’s the perfect choice, though, since the design is unisex.” |
Student C | “It looks cute~. I want to wear that!” |
Student D | “Isn’t that men’s clothing?” |
Student C | “But women can wear that too.” |
Student D | “It’s a little bit different than what KIKUKAWA usually makes, but it looks good!” |
Student A | “Just as I expected, the one who takes the last spot is one who receives the most applause.” |
Izumi | (The result of Taichi-kun’s practice is showing. His walking looks magnificent.) |
| (Mikami looks so confident that it couldn’t be compared to how he looks in the beginning of the play--.) |
| (There’s no need to worry.) |
| (The costume that Yuki-kun and Taichi-kun created for this scene made Taichi-kun shine even more.) |
| |
Mikami | “How, How was it?” |
Kikukawa | “Didn’t you say you weren’t anxious before?” |
Mikami | “Well, yeah, but…” |
Kikukawa | “It was perfect.” |
Mikami | “R-Really!?” |
Kikukawa | “It’s the finale. Let’s go on stage together.” |
Mikami | “Yes!” |
Izumi | (Kikukawa and Mikami’s strong bond is showing.) |
| (Yuki-kun and Taichi-kun have always been making costumes together, after all, so that’s to be expected.) |
Hayama | “...” |
Kikukawa | “I’ve told you not to worry about other people.” |
Hayama | “Hmm. As expected of Lily. K.” |
Kikukawa | “I’ll take that as a compliment.” |
Koga | “I don’t think I’m losing here. I’m still better than you as a model.” |
Mikami | “I know that.” |
Koga | “Hmph.” |
Mikami | “--But I don’t think I’m losing as Kikukawa’s model.” |
Koga | “You--.” |
Hayama | “Cut it out, stop snapping at them at every chance you have, Koga. I know you’re a big fan of KIKUKAWA.” |
Koga | “Wha--.” |
Kikukawa | “Ooh. I’ll ask my mom to give you a sample next time.” |
Koga | “Eh, seriously!? No, I mean, it’s not like I--.” |
Mikami | “Haha.” |
Koga | “Let me tell you this. I might give away the position for Kikukawa’s model to you, but not KIKUKAWA’s model.” |
Mikami | “Huh--.” |
Kikukawa | “--.” |
Koga | “What is it, what’s with that apathetic expression?” |
Kikukawa | “Pfft. No, it’s just… You’re right. My design and KIKUKAWA’s are different.” |
Mikami | “Ahaha. I’m unfit to be KIKUKAWA’s model, you know. I’ll forever be Kikukawa’s model, after all.” |
Koga | “What’s so funny about it?” |
Kikukawa | “I just didn’t think you would say something so obvious like that.” |
Koga | “Haaah!?” |
Mikami | “Good for you, Kikukawa.” |
Kikukawa | “...Yeah.” |
Koga | “???” |
| “What are they saying? Do you get it, Hayama?” |
Hayama | “Beats me. It must be Kikukawa’s complex or something.” |
Kikukawa | “You’re a real nasty dude.” |
Hayama | “Hmph. Next time we will battle it out on stage for professional. You better appear as Lily. K.” |
Kikukawa | “You don’t need to tell me that.” |
| |
Sakuya | Good job there, guys! |
Itaru | GJ, GJ. |
Banri | Good work. |
Muku | You did great! |
Kazunari | GJ! |
Sakuya | I’ve never seen a fashion show before, but that was cool! |
Muku | Both Taichi-kun and Tenma-kun’s costumes are stunning too. |
Kazunari | You guys sure live up to our expectations as the models actor! |
Banri | Was the designer course you took effective? |
Yuki | Well, it was inspiring in many ways. |
Itaru | You suit the designer role, Masumi--you seem very sensitive and prideful. |
Masumi | Shut up. |
Sakuya | You really gave off the vibe of such designer! |
Muku | I expect no less from Tenma-kun, you were great! |
Kazunari | You did feel like “The” model. |
Muku | Yes, yes! |
Tenma | That’s obvious. |
Yuki | You didn’t even have to act to bring out Koga’s ore-sama personality. |
Tenma | What did you say!? |
Banri | Even Taichi really looked like a model at the last part. |
Sakuya | Yes. You didn’t look like the usual Taichi-kun! |
Taichi | Ehehe! |
Yuki | Ah, hold on. |
Taichi | Yu-Yuki-chan? |
Yuki | I think if we spread the hem a little bit more, your silhouette will look nicer when you walk. I should work on it today. |
| I’ll be counting on you as my assistant, stupid dog. |
Taichi | W-Woof! |
Banri | You’re well disciplined as ever. |
Izumi | They’re a pair during the play, though… |
