Backstage Stories
AsajoIs the next performance already decided?
AzumaYeah, I've been selected as the co-lead.
AsajoReally? I'm definitely going to see it. I can't wait to see what role you play next.
...Ah, that reminds me. Would you perhaps be available for this ticket?
AzumaKabuki?[1]
AsajoI was supposed to go with a friend, but we won't be able to make it...
Would you like to have it?
AzumaThank you. I'll go invite someone from the company.
Do you also like kabuki?
AsajoYes. I love the unique atmosphere of the theater. Whenever I go there, I always take a picture with the synopsis in front of the theater as a memento.
AzumaI see.
AsajoI was looking forward to it again, but it can't be helped. I hope you'll enjoy it, Azuma-kun.
AzumaI'm back.
IzumiWhich performance is better...
YukiThe costumes of this performance are gorgeous and interesting.
IzumiHeh, I see.
Ah, welcome back, Azuma-san.
YukiWelcome back.
AzumaAre you going out to see something?
IzumiIn preparation for the next performance, I was thinking of actually going to see a kabuki performance, and I asked Yuki-kun for some recommendations.
AzumaIf that's the case, Asajo-san actually gave me tickets to a kabuki performance today, so why don't you come with me?
IzumiHuh? Is that okay?
AzumaOf course. Since I got 3 tickets, do you want to come with, Yuki?
YukiI'll go.

AzumaThe performance starts in the evening, so why don't we have some tea first?
IzumiSounds good!
AzumaThere is a sweets store that I recommend. I'm sure you guys will love it.
YukiI have no doubts if it's Azu-nee's recommendation.
IzumiI'm looking forward to it! I wonder what kind of sweets will they have~?
Azuma Snow That Falls like Flowers 2-2.png
Wow, there's so many matcha sweets here!
YukiThey look cute too.
IzumiRight, right. Everything looks so tasty, I can't decide.
AzumaWe're going to see kabuki today so I thought some matcha would be nice. I'm glad you like it.
IzumiWhat should I choose... This shiratama zenzai looks good, but so does this warabimochi...but this parfait looks good too...
YukiThat's too many options.
AzumaIf you guys are okay with it, why don't we just share?
IzumiIs that okay?! Then of course, thank you so much!
YukiToo much food. But well, I'd like to try a lot of different food too, so it's fine.
AzumaWell then, we'll get this, and this...
IzumiThis too, please!
AzumaFufu, of course.
What about you, Yuki?
YukiThen I guess I'll get this.
ServerSorry for the wait.
IzumiItadakimasu!
YukiItadakimaaasu.
AzumaItadakimasu.
Izumi...It's so good!
YukiThis one's also good. The red bean paste is just perfect.
AzumaIt's got a good matcha flavor and it's not too sweet.
IzumiAaah, I'm so happy...
AzumaFufu.
Izumi?
AzumaDirector, you have something on your mouth.
IzumiHuh?!
D-did I get it?
Azuma Snow That Falls like Flowers 2-3.png
AzumaIt's still there. Here.
IzumiTh-thank you very much.
YukiIt's not like she's a child that you have to get it for her.
IzumiI'm so embarrassed...
Azuma Snow That Falls like Flowers 3-1.png
IzumiHah~ I feel like I haven't returned to reality yet...
I think kabuki is always so powerful, isn't it? Even though they're humans like us, it's as if something else has come down to them...
AzumaI get that. It feels like it's taking you to another world.
YukiNot only the content of the performance, but also the costumes are exciting to see each time.
There are a lot of eccentric colors that aren't used very often, and the dyeing and embroidery are like the crystallization of traditional crafts.
It's really interesting to see how each role has its own pattern, and how the colors and patterns express the character and atmosphere.
It's also useful for making costumes, so the more I look into it, the more interested I become.
AzumaYou can really feel the history that has been accumulated in every detail, huh? It's a good reference for the next play.
Izumi...Oh, there's a souvenir shop.
YukiMaybe I should buy something for the Summer Troupe... Kazunari seemed interested when I told him I was going to see kabuki.
IzumiI'm gonna go take a look too.
AzumaThen let's meet back at the entrance once we're done.

Izumi(There were so many cute souvenirs that I couldn't help but buy a lot of them.)
Azuma......
IzumiAzuma-san, have you finished shopping?
AzumaYeah. All good now.
IzumiLooks like Yuki-kun's gonna take a bit longer.
AzumaLet's wait for him slowly.
...Ah, that's right. I was thinking of taking a picture in front of the theater.
IzumiA picture?
AzumaAsajo-san told me that she always takes pictures when she comes to see kabuki, so I thought I'd take one and send it to her instead.
IzumiI see! Then let me take your picture. There aren't that many people right now, so it's the perfect chance.
AzumaI'll take you up on that, then. Thank you.
IzumiDid I take it just fine?
AzumaYou did. But it's a bit lonely by myself.
Would you like to take one with me?
IzumiHuh? Are you sure?
AzumaI'm sure Asajo-san will be happy too.
IzumiIf you say so...
How is it?
AzumaThat's a good picture.
IzumiI-I feel like I'm laughing too much. My eyes practically turned into lines...
AzumaReally? I think it's cute though.
IzumiNo no, I feel like I look a bit too excited here for this to be sent to Asajo-san!
AzumaYou're worrying too much.
IzumiIt's a bit embarrassing, so please just send the picture where you're alone to Asajo-san...
AzumaIs this everything you shopped for?
IzumiYes. That's all.
AsajoOh my? What a coincidence.
IzumiHello.
AzumaThank you for the kabuki tickets the other day.
AsajoNo no, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
The picture of the two of you was very nice. Thank you for sending it to me.
IzumiThe two of us?
AsajoYou know, this picture.
IzumiAh, Azuma-san, I thought I told you to send the picture of you alone...!
AzumaI wanted to show her your cute smile.
AsajoFufu. I was happy to see that you really enjoyed it.
AzumaSee?
IzumiH-how embarrassing...
