Citron | Tsuzuru, are you alright!? |
Tsuzuru | !? |
Citron | You weren't hit by eggs or tomatoes!? |
Tsuzuru | What are you talking about!? |
Izumi | You didn't feel any eyes on you? |
Tsuzuru | Eh? Well......I was concentrating on the PC, so I didn't realise at all...... |
Izumi | I see...... |
Tsuzuru | What's going on? |
Izumi | Mm, nothing. It'll be dinner shortly. Why don't you take a break soon? |
Tsuzuru | No~ I can't. I have to finish at a bit of a cleaner point. |
Izumi | Really? |
Citron | But your screen's been blank for ages! |
Tsuzuru | T-That's because I've been writing and then deleting it...... |
Izumi | If you go for a bit of a change of pace, you might come up with a good idea. |
Tsuzuru | ......That might be true, but I kind of can't. |
| I don't make progress, so I just get more flustered, and I don't want to part from the PC, or more like I get scared of parting from the PC. |
Izumi | (As I thought, he's gotten stuck and might be working himself into a terrible state......) |
Citron | I've got a good Chinese divination, so don't worry! |
Tsuzuru | What's that? |
Citron | I'll announce it at dinner! |
| |
Sakuya | Thanks for the meal. |
Masumi | Thanks for the meal. Your curry really is the most delicious. |
Itaru | Thanks~. |
Citron | Ahem. I have an announcement for everyone! |
Tenma | An announcement? |
Kazunari | What, what? |
Citron | Soon, we're going to hold "The First MANMAN Grand Prix"! |
Tenma | What's that? |
Izumi | MANMAN Grand Prix? |
Citron | MANMAN is a portmanteau of MANKAI Company and MANZAI. Representatives from each troupe will perform a manzai act and the troupe that's the funniest will be the victor! |
Kazunari | A manzai grand prix with everyone!? Get hyped~! I'm going up with Tenten! |
Tenma | Why me!? |
Juza | Funny...... |
Banri | It's impossible for you. |
Izumi | (So this is the change of pace that Citron-kun was talking about.) |
| (It's true that we haven't done any whole troupe projects recently, so this will deepen their bonds as well as being funny.) |
Sakyo | The Spring Troupe is next in line to perform. This isn't the time for that. |
Itaru | If it's like a breather, it should be fine. |
Sakuya | It seems fun, so I think it's fine as long as it doesn't hinder our practice! |
Masumi | I'll go with you. If it's you, I don't mind being hit.[1] |
Izumi | Ehh!? |
Itaru | That's a hard boke to deal with. |
Citron | I want to appear with Tsuzuru for the Spring Troupe. He'll write a manzai script as a cutout from the play script. |
Itaru | Cutout? A breather? |
Sakuya | That's good! |
Tsuzuru | No no, I'm not in the position to...... |
Izumi | It might make for a good change of pace. |
Sakuya | As you practice manzai, you might come to match one another as the lead and second lead. |
Itaru | I have high expectations. |
Tsuzuru | Hmm...... |
Citron | It's studious![2] |
Masumi | That old man said the two of you needed to be more in sync. |
Tsuzuru | ......Understood. Then, as long as the script is at a permissible level. |
