Izumi | Who are… the main cast of Hakkaku-san's posthumous work? |
Reni | The first generation troupe leaders, Kashima, and… Myself. |
Izumi | Eh!? Kamikizaka-san and Yuzo-san!? |
Reni | In addition, Yukio Tachibana… your father has been appointed to be the director. |
Izumi | --. |
| But we still don't know where my father is… |
Reni | In any case, this script originally belongs to MANKAI Company. |
| I've always been keeping this since I had assumed the company would collapse in the near future. But I figure I shouldn't have to worry about that anymore. |
| Hakkaku-san told me to do anything I like with the script, so have it your way. You can have the new members perform this piece or something. |
Izumi | Eh--. |
| (But for us to deliver a play that was entrusted to the OG members is…) |
Misumi | ...I want to make Grandpa's wish come true. |
Izumi | … |
Reni | Hakkaku-san also left me with another will. |
| He wanted me to show this father right here, Kusumi Ikaruga… Misumi's performance. |
Kusumi | Huh? |
Misumi | Me? |
Reni | He was sure his grandson Misumi would stand on the stage one day. |
Izumi | Hakkaku-san… |
| (But Kusumi-san has always treated Misumi-kun badly. Will that be alright…) |
Misumi | That's also Grandpa's wish, right? If so, I want to fulfill it. |
| I was so happy when I watched the beautiful play that Madoka wrote. |
Madoka | --. |
Misumi | That's why, I want Madoka and Father to see my acting this time! |
Madoka | Nii-san… |
Kusumi | … |
Izumi | (It may be impossible to do that now, though. It'll be great if we can talk with Kusumi-san properly…) |
| *stomach growling sound* |
| ? |
Misumi | I heard a stomach rumble~...? |
Madoka | M-My apologies… |
Misumi | We should have a meal! |
Omi | Dinner's almost ready~. |
Misumi | Let's go prepare it together~! We can have something to nibble on, you see~! |
Madoka | Huh!? No, I…! |
Omi | Hey, hey. Fine, just a little bit, 'kay? |
Izumi | Please stay and eat too, Kamikizaka-san. |
Reni | Logically speaking, losers don't join a victory celebration party. |
Izumi | No need to hold back! |
Reni | I still haven't finished talking with this person here. |
Kusumi | --. |
Reni | I'll join when I have another chance. |
Izumi | It's a promise, 'kay? |
Reni | Why are you like this too… |
Izumi | That's because… I'm sure there are a lot of things about Dad that are only known to you, Kamikizaka-san. I want to hear about that too. |
Reni | ...Goodness. Did you already forget what kind of things I did to you? Let me remind you, I hoped that this theater troupe would completely collapse. |
Izumi | … |
| (He has a point. He used Taichi-kun to hurt us, and a lot of other things too…) |
| (But I feel like the Kamikizaka-san in front of me right now is different from before.) |
| (He was the one who built this theater troupe with Dad, as a member of the first gen.) |
| (Compared to me, he has more skills as a director and has devoted his life to theater longer than me.) |
Reni | You get it, don't you? My atonement is yet to be over. |
Izumi | In that case… please let me use it. |
Reni | Use what? |
Izumi | GOD-za is a theater troupe that has been nominated for the Fleur Awards--in other words, you have a higher rank than us. |
| Please let me use it so that MANKAI Company can win the Fleur Award. |
Reni | ...The apple truly doesn't fall far from the tree. Fine. I'll cooperate if there's anything I can do. |
Izumi | That includes Dad's best episodes too, obviously! |
Reni | All right. I shall tell you my long-standing grudge towards that guy. I couldn't care less if you end up disappointed. |
Izumi | I'm looking forward to it. |
