| Misumi | I’ll be having this triangle onigiri curry! |
| Masumi | Itadakimasu. |
| Banri | Oh yeah, we gotta decide on a rough setting for our upcoming performance, and I think it’d be better to include info about trains or sleeper trains in it. |
| Izumi | That’s true. |
| It might a good idea to do some research and get to know more about them. |
| Tsumugi | We should also read works that have trains or sleeper trains appearing in them, right? |
| *door opens* |
| Itaru | I’m home. |
| Misumi | Welcome back, Itaru. |
| Izumi | Welcome home. |
| Masumi | Works with trains in them… |
| Itaru | Hm? What are we talking about? |
| Banri | We’re just discussin’ whether we should watch stuff with sleeper trains in ‘em for our play. |
| Itaru | Hm hm, I thought you’d say that. |
| Masumi | That smug face is gross. |
| Itaru | K, anyways. |
| Tah dah. |
| I bought a DVD of “Galactic Eternity Train”. |
| Tsumugi | Galactic Eternity Train? |
| Itaru | It was huge hit that struck the hearts of many generations. |
| You see, it’s an anime movie about fighting monsters on a train that runs through the galaxy. |
| Banri | Ahh, that’s the one that Itaru-san went to the movie theatre to watch for a period of time, right? |
| Masumi | That reminds me, I feel like he was talking about it all the time. |
| Itaru | You two remember well. |
| Izumi | The setting is a train that runs through the galaxy, huh? Sounds interesting. |
| Misumi | Yeah, yeah! I wanna watch it too~! |
| Tsumugi | It seems we’ll be able to learn a lot about trains while also enjoying ourselves. |
| Itaru | On that topic, this film is also the same way, but when it comes to sleeper trains… |
| The standard story is when the train can’t stop and threatens to run off the track, or when the train almost crashes into a huge obstacle, right? |
| Banri | Dude, don’t say somethin’ so ominous. |
| Izumi | But that’s true; sleeper trains are also used as stages for mysteries and there’s lots of incidents that happen in them, right? |
| Itaru | Exactly. |
| So then, who wants to start off watching this DVD? |
| Tsumugi | I might be able to watch it tomorrow since I have time before my tutoring job. |
| Do you mind if I borrow it first? |
| Itaru | Ok, here you go. |
| Tsumugi | Thank you. I can’t wait to watch it. |
| Banri | M’kay, then each of us should lend what we have, or look for different novels and movies with trains or sleeper trains in ‘em. |
| Izumi | Yeah, good idea. |
| I’ll try searching too. |
| Masumi | I got it. |
| Misumi | I’ll go to the library too~! |
| Izumi | How about we gather back together after watching some things? |
| Tsumugi | I’ll let Guy know about our plan later. |
| I think he’s at work right now. |
| Banri | By the way, Misumi, I was just sorta curious—why’d you apply for a job as a 1-day sleeper train crew member? |
| Itaru | True, there’s lots of other part-time jobs, aren't there? |
| Misumi | Um, you see, it was written on the recruitment flyer that Theatre troupe members were welcome~. |
| And if I rode the train, I thought I could go really far, and that I could buy a triangle pennant, so I applied~! |
| Izumi | Ahh, that makes sense. |
| Tsumugi | Fufu, that sounds like Misumi-kun. |
| Itaru | Lol, nothing stops this guy. |
| |
| Tsumugi | Galactic Eternity Train was really interesting, wasn’t it…! |
| Guy | Yes, it was certainly worth the watch. |
| I expect nothing less from an anime movie Chigasaki recommends. |
| Tsumugi | The world of a train running through the galaxy sure is amazing too. |
| There’s a sense of adventure, right? |
| Guy | The atmosphere of the city of stars that appeared was nice and very beautiful as well. |
| However, I did not expect the main character to die at the end… |
| Tsumugi | That was surprising… But I felt moved since I could feel their passionate desire to protect the train. |
| Guy | Yes, you are right about that. |
| Tsumugi | (Come to think of it, I feel like there have always been lots of popular novels and anime that have stories about a train travelling through the galaxy.) |
