| Classmate | Say, we're going to play at the park after school, wanna come? |
| Tsuzuru | Hmm, I’ll pass. |
| Classmate | Cram school? Studying? |
| Tsuzuru | There's a book I want to borrow, so I'm going to the library. |
| Classmate | Hmm. |
| Tsuzuru | See you later. |
| Classmate | See you. Bye bye. |
| Upperclassman A | Ah, there he is. |
| Upperclassman B | It's him right. |
| Tsuzuru | ? |
| Upperclassman A | Say, you're Meguru-kun's little brother right? |
| Tsuzuru | Eh… I am. |
| Upperclassman B | Wanna join our team? |
| Upperclassman A | You good at soccer? |
| Tsuzuru | N-No, I won’t join. I'm just average at soccer too. |
| Upperclassman A | Heh. We're going to play soccer at the school yard right now, wanna join? |
| Tsuzuru | Um, I'm going to the library… |
| Upperclassman B | Then, some other time. |
| Tsuzuru | (I guess they're fifth graders like Meguru. They look nothing like us first years, they're a bit scary too…) |
| --. |
| Upperclassman A | Ah, he left. |
| Upperclassman B | See you. |
| Tsuzuru | (So even the fifth graders know I'm Meguru's little brother. I wonder if he told them himself…) |
| |
| Teacher | Gather around. Today for P.E we will be playing soccer. |
| Oh, you're Minagi's little brother right. Your teammates will be lucky. |
| Tsuzuru | (Why did he have to go and say that…) |
| Classmate A | Who is Minagi? |
| Classmate B | Minagi Meguru from fifth grade, he's super good at soccer. |
| Classmate C | Eh! You're Minagi Meguru's brother!? Amazing! |
| Tsuzuru | No, that's not really… |
| |
| Classmate A | Go! |
| Classmate B | You can do it! |
| Classmate C | Minagi, shoot! |
| Tsuzuru | --. |
| Classmate C | Aah, he missed. |
| Classmate A | So Minagi Meguru's little brother is just this good. |
| Classmate B | What, he isn't such a big deal. |
| Tsuzuru | … |
| |
| (Just because I'm Meguru's brother, doesn’t mean I'm good at soccer) |
| (Why do I have to hear those things, just because I'm his little brother) |
| Meguru's classmate | Go! Meguru! |
| Meguru | --. |
| Meguru's classmate | Yay! Goal! |
| Meguru | Alright! |
| Tsuzuru | (It's Meguru… he really is good at soccer) |
| Meguru | Ah, it's Tsuzuru! Heeey! |
| Tsuzuru | (He's waving at me so carelessly, but whose fault is it that I'm having this bad time) |
| Huh… |
| (Let's just go home…) |
| |
| Meguru | Tsuzuru! Let's go home together. |
| I saw you just now from the school yard and I waved to you, you didn’t notice? |
| Tsuzuru | …I did notice. |
| Meguru | So you did. |
| How is school? Did you make friends? |
| Tsuzuru | … |
| (Because of Meguru everyone raises their expectations of me as they please, so I end up disappointing my friends) |
| Big brother… teach me soccer. |
| Meguru | Eh? Soccer? |
| Tsuzuru | 'Cause we played soccer in P.E today. |
| Meguru | Alright! Leave it to me! |
| |
| That's right, just like that. Don't strain yourself when you kick the ball. |
| Tsuzuru | -- *kicks* |
| Meguru | Oh, this one was great. You have a sense for it don'tcha think? |
| Tsuzuru | You're overreacting. |
| Meguru | I'm serious, you have talent. As expected from my brother! |
| Tsuzuru | You're too high spirited. |
| Meguru | By the way, you're getting pocket money right? |
| Tsuzuru | Yeah. |
| Meguru | How nice, it's so early. I got it only starting third grade. |
| Tsuzuru | It's only 500yen a month, I can't even eat out with friends. |
| Meguru | But it's better than nothing. |
| Well, in my case my shoes get worn out quickly so it's pricey. Can't be helped. |
| Hey, this month I'm having it rough so lend me 500yen. |
| Tsuzuru | You'll never give them back so nope. |
| Meguru | You're even saving your New Year money so this little of a sum is fine right. |
| Tsuzuru | You should just save money too Meguru. |
| Meguru | Would've been nice if I could do that. |
| Tsuzuru | That's called "you reap what you sow". |
| Meguru | You know some tough phrases huh. |
| |
| Omi | Nice clear! |
| Tasuku | It will get dark soon. Let's call it a day. |
| Azami | On what day is the futsal tournament next month? |
| Tsuzuru | The 25th, a Sunday. |
| Omi | It's just before the World Cup so it makes things more exciting. |
| Azami | By the way, are they announcing the members this week? |
| Tsuzuru | No, next week. Right now they're holding a training camp. |
| Tasuku | Meguru-san is attending too right? |
| Tsuzuru | Yes. At the end of the camp there are international goodwill matches, they will select the members then. |
| Azami | Minagi will surely get in. |
| Omi | He's still young but his pro career is going well, the rumors say high chances he'll get in. |
| Tsuzuru | My family is all excited about it, but I wonder if it's true. We have to wait until the announcement. |
| Tasuku | We have to choose our fifth member too. |
| Omi | Banri said he might have school business on that day. |
| Azami | Saying that, who is it leaving us with… |
| Tasuku | Maybe we should hold a training camp too. |
| Tsuzuru | Haha, you're right. Seems like we won't be able to decide otherwise. |
| |
| Izumi | Guys, is everyone here? Let's start the meeting then. |
| With the sixth performances ending, everyone has had a chance to play a lead role… |
| So, I thought about doing something a bit different next. |
| Sakyo | It is great we were able to complete all performances successfully. |
| However, precisely because there's an established style for each Troupe and the quality is stable, we need something that would become a stimulus for us. |
| Tenma | True, if we want to win the Fleur award, we better have something that would help us grow. |
| Tsumugi | In that sense, the mix performance made for a really good stimulus. |
| Banri | Oh yeah, it was different from an Autumn Troupe performance, and it was fun to actually perform with people whose performance we usually only watch. |
| Tsumugi | Each Troupe has its own practice ways, thought process and approach for the roles, so there's much to learn. |
| Tsuzuru | Even for the script, I had to keep away from each Troupe's usual style, it was refreshing. |
| Izumi | A mixed performance huh… it might be good! |
| Manager | It's like an all-stars festival, the audience will surely be happy! |
| Sakuya | I also want to try and perform with members from different troupes! |
| Sakyo | Everyone should experience it at least once, but we will need just as much scripts for that to happen. |
| Izumi | Hmm… that would be too much of a burden for Tsuzuru-kun. |
| Tsuzuru | There are a few plots I wrote as practice, so if I use them it would be fine somehow. |
| Tenma | So there were some turned down scripts? |
| Tsuzuru | There were some with a theme that just wouldn't fit with any Troupe, they were unsuitable for a Troupe performance so I put them on hold. |
| Banri | Well, looks like it's time they see the light of day again. |
| Sakuya | I can't wait to see something different that Tsuzuru-kun wrote! |
| Manager | Maybe we should even create a season ticket for mix performances! |
| Tsumugi | It would be nice if it causes people who usually watch only their favorite Troupe, to enjoy the acting of the other Troupes too. |
| Izumi | I think it would be tough with the scripts though, is it fine? |
| Tsuzuru | I have so much I want to write, so I'm actually happy. |
| Izumi | I'm glad to hear that! |
| Sakyo | So, what will the next performance be about? |
| Tsuzuru | For now, I will try to use a plot I've started to write before. |
| Izumi | Since it's a chance, I want to see a theme that Tsuzuru-kun really wants to write about, and not something that fits the style of a certain Troupe or actor. |
| Tsuzuru | Eh, I can write whatever I want? |
| Izumi | Of course! I can't wait to see it. |
| Tsuzuru | Yes! |
