★ A3! New Characters "KICS" Details

Someone already TL'd these on Twitter but I figured I'd do my own TL over here for the Tumblr crowd!

These characters will appear in ACT4!, which is being released starting in spring 2024.

Towa Ichinoe (CV: Daigo Kato)

An extremely puppy-like boy who loves all of MANKAI.

Occupation: 1st Year at Hanasaki Academy

A huge ultrahigh-intensity fan of MANKAI Company and and oshi of Spring Troupe's Masumi. He attended middle school in the countryside, but convinced his parents to let him move to Tokyo. He also lives with his aunt and works part-time for her at a flower shop on Veludo Way. He loves rice.

"Hey, hey, hey, could we take a pic together, please!?"

Ibuki Dozono (CV: Shuichiro Umeda)

A high-energy genderless youth.

Occupation: 2nd Year at Tsukushi High School

They like to stand out and have become quiet famous! They started posting videos online that went viral due to their enthusiastic personality and they've become a bit of a celebrity. They're a happy-go-lucky person who lives their life by the mindset of "Life's a win if you enjoy it the way you want to!" They like potatoes.

"Huh~, so there's some people who don't know of THE Ibuki~?"

Keiku Karashina (CV: Hayato Dojima)

A violent boy who's emotionally-lacking.

Occupation: 2nd Year at Ouka High School

A boy who has nothing in his life to be passionate about so he spends his days fighting instead. He's insensitive to both his own emotions and to the emotions of others. His favorite food is shortcake with strawberries on top.

"'It hurts' is easy to understand... ain't it?"

Kureha Nishiki (CV: Yuri Ise)

A narcissistic boy who's 120% confident in himself.

Occupation: 3rd Year at Ouka High School

A super confident guy who thinks he be good at anything at all. He's an idiot who can't make up his mind during critical moments, but he's loved by everyone around him at school because of his natural cheerfulness. He's addicted to tea and works part-time at a cafe. He likes Western-style sweets.

"Just leave it to me and everything will be okay!"

Quick announcements about

A3! in English

Maybelle Lace and I are working together to translate Act 12!

This is where the translated “script” version of all chapters will be, similar to the structure of Yaycupcake Wiki page and other translations on here.

Maybelle will be uploading the full video of Act 11 & 12 ((at the beginning of 2024)), and has already uploaded the other Acts, newest event stories, and Backstage Stories—all translated— onto YouTube, so please check it out and support them if your able to!

We have a lot of the chapters done, and I will uploading Act 12: Episode 1 on October 31!

Sorry about that (٥｡•‸•̀｡)

Lastly, even though I haven’t worked with them, I still wanted to mention the Middling Director channel on YouTube, as they have uploaded all of the English server’s content before it shut down. Please check it out and support them if you can! 🌷

That’s all,

Thank you for your time!

A3! Backstage Story Translation - Tasuku Takato R: Zabi's Sleepover - Part 2

Tasuku: I’ll do some push-ups next. 1, 2, 3…

Zabi: *nuzzle, nuzzle*...

Tasuku: Hm? You came up to me immediately.

Zabi: *whine*

Tasuku: Okay, I’ll do my work-out later, so come over here. Up you go.

Tsumugi: I’m back.

Tsumugi: Oh, is Tasuku holding you, Zabi? Have you been a good boy?

Zabi: Woof!

Tsumugi: There, there. Good boy.

Zabi: *whine*

Tasuku: Welcome back. Hope practice went well.

Tsumugi: Thanks for watching Zabi.

Tasuku: Nah, I didn’t do anything you need to thank me for. The others were watching Zabi too.

Tasuku: Anyway, Zabi sure enjoys having you pet him.

Tsumugi: Right. Seeing him relax like this when I pet him makes me happy.

Tasuku: Does being pet by Tsumugi feel that good, Zabi? 

Zabi: Woof!

Tasuku: I see.

Tsumugi: By the way, Tasuku, why are you holding Zabi?

Tasuku: I was working out a little further away from him, but for some reason he came over to me.

Tsumugi: You two have been friends for a long time, but you’ve probably gotten closer now that you’ve spent all day together.

-

Tsumugi: I’m starting to get sleepy.

Tasuku: Yeah, I’m about to go to sleep too. What are you going to do about Zabi?

Tsumugi: He’ll sleep with me in my bed.

Tasuku: Sounds good. Good night, then.

[Lights turn off]

Tsumugi: Yeah, good night. … Wait, where did Zabi go?

Zabi: *whine*

Tasuku: Hm?

Tsumugi: Sorry, he went to you. Zabi, no, come here.

Zabi: *whine*...

Tasuku: You good over there?

Zabi: Woof!

Tsumugi: Zabi, you can’t. Come back here.

Tasuku: Zabi’s already in a sleeping position, so let him sleep like this tonight. He doesn’t really bother me, anyway.

Tsumugi: Haah… I’m gonna be lonely, but it’s okay. I wonder if Zabi chose to sleep next to you because of your higher body temperature.

Tsumugi: Zabi, you be a good boy and sleep. Good night.

Zabi: *whine*

Tasuku: Good night.

-

Tsumugi: Zabi. … Zabi.

Tasuku: (Hm? Tsumugi’s calling for Zabi, but I don’t see him anywhere… Where is he?)

Tasuku: (Also, why is my field of view lower than usual…?)

Tsumugi: Oh, what’s wrong, Zabi? You’re looking around all restlessly. … There, there.

Tasuku: (Woah, what the–!?)

Tasuku: Woof!?

Tasuku: (Wha!? What’s going on…! Wait a minute!) 

Tasuku: Woof! Woooof! Uuu, woof!

Tsumugi: What’s wrong, Zabi? There, there, calm down…

Tasuku: Uuu…

Tasuku: (I’m the one being pet by Tsumugi… Does that mean I’ve become Zabi?)

Tsumugi: It’s okay. There, there.

Tasuku: *whine*…

Tasuku: (Shit, a pleasured whine just came out of me…)

Tsumugi: Ah, have you calmed down? I’m glad.

Tasuku: (No, I’m not Zabi. Tsumugi, please notice…!)

Tasuku: Woof, woof woof!

Tsumugi: You want me to pet you more? There, there.

Tasuku: (No, you're wrong! I’m Tasuku Takato——!)

-

Tasuku: …! Haah, haah…

Tsumugi: Ah, are you awake?

Tasuku: (... Tsumugi?)

Tsumugi: Are you okay? You seem kinda shaken up.

Tasuku: Ah, yeah… I’m okay. I just had a weird dream.

Tasuku: (I can speak the human language properly… Right.)

Tsumugi: If that’s all it is, then alright. It’s still night, so let’s get some more sleep.

Tasuku: Sorry for waking you. Good night.

Tsumugi: Good night.

Tasuku: …

Zabi: Zzz, zzz…

Tasuku: (Did Zabi give me that dream to show me how good it feels to be pet by Tsumugi…?)

Zabi: Zzz…

Tasuku: No, that’s… not really possible.

A3! Event Story Translation “NEW ERA GARDEN” [Chapter 4]

An episode dedicated to Kasumi's feelings about his role and his past as a leader.

Kasumi

“Toshi-san, there’s this interesting rumor I’ve heard from an older lady.”

It’s hard to get the intonation right… The emphasis should be here…

“Kondo-san, I’ll stand guard here! I won’t let anyone escape!”

Kaede

Papa, are you playing as a woman?

Tsubaki

Or are you playing a guy?

Sakura

Which is it~?

Kasumi

Uh… Actually…

Kasumi

…Y-Yukio-san, this… is a mistake, right…?

Yukio

It’s not.

Kasumi

Eeh!? B-but I can’t believe I’m the only double cast…

Yukio

As for you, I wanted to see you play as both Kimigiku and Todo Heisuke.

You played Lady Shizuka in “Traces of a Dream” already, and just playing the beautiful Kimigiku is boring, isn’t it?

And I also want as many people as possible for the Ikedaya incident scene.

Kasumi

No, no, no, no way! I wouldn’t care much if it’s just a female only role, but I’ve been blank for too long and yet you already want me in the Ikedaya fight…!

It’s like a neighborhood kid getting caught in a gang leader fight!

Yukio

It’ll be fine. Yuzo said he’ll teach you.

Yuzo

…Yeah. Leave it to me. I’ll put you through the Shinsengumi hazing process.

Kasumi

!!!

Kasumi

(...Yuzo looked like a complete bully that time.)

This time, papa will play as two people, two roles at once, it’ll be a lot of work.

Kaede

You should practice a lot, then. Kaede and her friends always practice a lot of dances at the nursery.

Tsubaki

Do it everyday. You have to get it right.

Sakura

You’ll be able to do it after enough practice.

Kaede

Let’s play over there so we don’t get in the way.

Tsubaki

Okie!

Sakura

Good luck, papa~.

Kasumi

T-thanks…

…Sigh.

*He flips the page*

…

(In the other play I acted as Lady Shizuka after a long while of not playing female characters, and I got a lot of compliments from a lot of people. I'm looking forward to playing Kimigiku.)

(The only problem is Todo Heisuke… Hopefully… I’ll get the hang of it after some practice.)

(Now that I think about it, I remember the first time I was on stage there were three sword fights, it was a mess…)

“...Haah, haah, my bad…”

I’d be on my knees at first, it was hard to get up.

My body ached everywhere and my body felt heavy like steel.

It was as if the gravity only changed around me and pulled me down.

“...If the leader’s gonna be like this, there’s nothing to discuss, shouldn’t we just replace this guy?”

Syu-san’s bluntness and arrogance was nothing out of the ordinary, but it struck my heart this time.

I was pathetic and remorseful, I couldn’t even get myself to face them.

It was the first time I was assigned a role where I had to fight.

No matter how much I practiced, no matter how slow I took my time, I couldn’t reenact the movements properly at all.

I looked like I was doing a Lantern festival dance instead of having the form of a swordsman.

It’s no wonder that Syu-san, who taught it, was dismayed.

“Alright well, let’s leave the fight scene at that for today before you get hurt.”

I heard Yukio-san’s gentle voice interrupt and just bowed my head, devastated by my own shortcomings.

“...”

Yuzo looked at me like he wanted to tell me something, but with the state of my mind, I couldn't take another word, I left the rehearsal room as if to escape.

“...Today’s the day I’ll get it right.”

The next morning, I was determined and went to the rehearsal room early.

“Well, aren't you early?” “Eh, Yuzo? Why are you…”

Immediately after that, he threw a wooden sword at me and Yuzo told me to prepare myself.

“Get in form.”

Subconsciously, I handled the wooden sword as Syu-san had taught me.

“Try to move the same way as I do.”

“But, Yuzo, your role…”

“I already got your movements memorized in my head. Try to keep up the pace.”

“—T-thanks.”

Repeating it over and over and adjusting the speed, eventually I got it right for the first time.

“Yes! Finally!”

I was able to keep up with the other members at the same pace.

The joy of being able to do something I couldn’t before welled up deep inside me.

“This is just the beginning. Go show Syu-san, that this role is yours alone.”

“...Yeah!”

Yuzo usually only smacktalks me, but he helps me out so casually like this when I’m going through something difficult.

He really is a reliable childhood friend.

As a way to show my gratitude for being helped like this,

I definitely made that role mine, and mine alone.

I made up my mind and got back into the flow of things.

Kasumi

(Back then, I felt like I had to do my absolute best as the leader of the Spring Troupe.)

(...I wonder if Sakuya-kun also had a tough time with fight scenes.)

Rather, the upcoming play, Sakuya-kun might come to see it…!?

(He adores me as the first Spring Troupe leader, I can’t just show Sakuya-kun an unseemly sword fight.)

Sigh…

(I got no choice, I’ll just have to suck it up and ask Yuzo for help.)

(In the story, Kimigiku supports the Shinsengumi from the shadows, meanwhile Todo Heisuke leaves the Shinsengumi later.)

(It overlaps with my desire to support MANKAI Company in the shadows in different ways despite my departure from the theater.)

…You really are amazing, Yukio-san.

(Honestly, you’re like a wizard.)

[SSR] Taichi | MANKAI Feature

I really like Roy too! I'll go all out for my performance since everyone voted for him~!

__________________________

Today's Star: Roy - Part 1

__________________________

*Director's default name as Izumi

Taichi: Ah, Ban-chan!

Banri: Taichi?

Taichi: So you had class today. Are you heading home now?

Banri: Nah, I still got something to do.

Taichi: Huh, what’s in that bag?

Banri: Some cloth and accessories that can be used as props.

Taichi: Oh~ You’re using them for assignment?

Banri: ‘Course not, these are for you.

Taichi: For me...?

Banri: We have this spin-off project of the supporting role based on the fan survey, right?

It’s your turn next, so I bought all these to go with your outfit.

You’re not the same size as you were then now, so some adjustments are needed.

Taichi: Eh!? It’s already my turn...?

Banri: What, you didn’t know?

Taichi: I didn't~! I gotta ask Director-sensei immediately when I get home!

Banri: Oh, take these while you’re at it then.

Taichi: Woah-! What, this many?

Banri: I’m in a bit of pickle here ‘cause I’ve been tasked with lotsa stuff while I’m shopping.

Taichi: Okay, let’s go shopping together then!

I’m home~!

Izumi: Welcome home, Taichi-kun.

Taichi: D-Director-sensei!

Izumi: Y-yeah? What’s up?

Taichi: I wanna know which of my supporting role is for the spin-off project...!

Izumi: Well, what the fans chose in the survey is...

Taichi: *gulp*

Izumi: It’s Roy from “DEAD/UNDEAD”!

Taichi: ......

Izumi: Um, you okay?

Taichi: I felt both happiness and pressure simultaneously that I froze for a second!

I see, so it’s Roy~.

Izumi: You can leave the script to Tsuzuru-kun. Let him know if you have any requests.

Taichi: Understood!

(If Roy got chosen...)

―Courtyard (Night)―

Taichi: Can I come in, Tsuzuru-kun?

Tsuzuru: Taichi? Go ahead.

―Room 102―

Taichi: Umm, it’s about the spin-off project...

Tsuzuru: That’s what I thought.

Taichi: Hehe, so you expected it.

Tsuzuru: ...So, what kind of story do you want?

Taichi: Well, when I heard that it’s Roy for the spin-off, I have just one request for the script.

You see, I was re-reading the script for our fourth performance in my room just now.

It was decided to be an undead story to put Achan’s make-up skill to good use, but reading it again reminds me that it’s a heavy story with many deaths.

Tsuzuru: Yeah, it is.

Taichi: Roy himself died twice, once when he was alive, and once when he turned into the undead...

That’s why...

I wanna see Roy’s happy scenes if we’re gonna make a spin-off for him, because it was such a sad story!

Tsuzuru: ...Hm, hm.

Thanks for the request. I’ll try writing with that for now.

Taichi: Ok, I’m looking forward to it!

__________________________

Today's Star: Roy - Part 2

__________________________

―Room 105 (Day)―

Taichi: (The script’s finally done. I’m excited to see how the story turns out.)

(Roy’s life with Ivan, before he turns into an undead...)

(He had such a small happiness in his life, although he died a sad death...)

(It’s so... heartbreaking.)

(Since I get to act as Roy once again, I gotta do my best to help him live a happy life...!)

―Practice Room―

Izumi: ...That’s enough for today.

Juza: Right.

Banri: It’s been a while since I last played Ivan, so I still can’t grasp the feeling yet.

Izumi: The spin-off is set before Roy turns into an undead, so the ambience might be slightly different from the main story.

Taichi: ......

Banri: What’s wrong? Something on your mind?

Taichi: It’s true, Roy from the main story is different from the Roy in the spin-off.

There wasn’t that much depiction of his daily life in the main story either...

I thought that, maybe the role study I’ve done for Roy is still not enough...

Izumi: In that case, why not try to think about what kind of person Roy was when he was still alive?

Taichi: Okay, I’ll try it!

Banri: ...Even if that’s the case, you don’t need to cling to me around 24/7.

Taichi: I’m sure Roy loves Ivan a lot, so they must’ve been working together to hunt down the undead!

That’s why I think being with you will help my role study!

Banri: Haah... It’s good that you’re passionate about your study.

Taichi: I’m sure Roy also thinks this kind of happiness doesn’t last forever.

Banri: ......

Taichi: Just kidding- ...wait, huh?

That’s not the way to the dorm, Ban-chan!

Banri: I know, just follow me.

Taichi: ......?

So yummy~! I was just thinking about trying out the new menu here.

Banri: I knew that.

Taichi: Huh, how come?

Banri: You wouldn’t shut up about it at the dorm.

Well, I was also interested from the ads.

Taichi: Hehe...Thank you, Ban-chan.

Banri: Oh right, about the script for the spin-off. Were you the one who requested for it?

Taichi: Yup. As soon as I know that Roy was chosen, I thought that the story theme would inevitably become serious.

I wanted to see Roy being happy before he became an undead, even if just slightly.

Banri: ......

Taichi: But, when I thought about Roy’s feelings while reading the script that Tsuzuru-kun wrote for me, I felt a different emotion.

I wonder if Roy, like Bill, gradually lost his rationality and became the undead.

I think his memories of everyday life with Ivan, will also gradually fade and be forgotten.

When I thought of that, no matter how happy the scenes are, my heart ached thinking about what happened afterwards.

It’s like, a bit different than I thought.

Banri: ...Ain’t that just fine?

Taichi: Eh?

Banri: That’s the kind of position Roy’s in.

The happier Roy and Ivan are depicted, the more believable it becomes that Ivan sought revenge after losing his younger brother.

So, what you felt is possibly one answer as a spin-off of “DEAD/UNDEAD”.

All that’s left to do is for you to accept Roy’s life.

Taichi: ......

...I’ll try to consult with Tsuzuru-kun about the script again.

__________________________

Today's Star: Roy - Part 3

__________________________

Juza: ...So the conclusion’s like this.

Banri: Your lines doesn’t change much before and after the script’s revised, y’know.

Juza: Aah? It’s natural to understand the overall flow of the script.

Taichi: Haha! It’s nice to see you guys still at it today too!

Izumi: Are you ready, Taichi-kun?

Taichi: Yeah! I can start anytime!

Izumi: Okay then, everyone! Do your best!

―Performance starts―

(...This is a story that sets before Roy turns into an undead.)

(Ivan and Roy are raiding a hangout of the undead.)

(Just when he thought he’s winning, Ivan sees something that creates an opening.)

Roy: “Watch out!”

Ivan: “Ah-!”

Roy: “Phew... It’s rare to see you screw up, Nii-chan.”

Ivan: “...My bad.”

“......”

Roy: “What did you pick up?”

Ivan: “Let’s move on.”

Roy: “H-hey! Wait for me...!”

“Hear this out, Doggy~!”

Doggy: “Hm?”

Roy: “I asked Ivan what he picked up earlier, but he won’t show it to me at all.”

Doggy: “Hogging to himself? What a bad brother he is.”

Ivan: “Shut up.”

“Can’t be helped... This is what I picked up.”

Doggy: “Ohh, a tin of candy. That’s pretty rare. It’s been a while since I’ve seen this package.”

Ivan: “Right?”

Roy: “I didn’t know you like candy so much that you want it all to yourself.”

Ivan: “......”

Doggy: “Pfft-.”

Roy: “...?”

Doggy: “So you don’t remember it anymore. Y’see, this is your favorite when you were a lil’ kid.”

Roy: “Eh?”

Ivan: “...From what I see it’s still unopened, but it could be poisoned.”

“I just didn’t want to show you until I can confirm it’s safe to eat.”

Roy: “Even so, you didn’t need to hide it from me!”

Ivan: “You’d steal and eat it out of my sight otherwise.”

Doggy: “Haha, true that.”

Roy: “You guys are mean. I won’t do that, just so you know.”

Ivan: “...Alright. Seems like it’s fine inside.”

“Here, take out your hand.”

Roy: “Okay!”

Doggy: “What about me?”

Ivan: “Yeah, yeah.”

Roy: “...Mmm~ So sweet! Right, Nii-chan?”

Ivan: “Yeah, it is.”

Doggy: “Yum, I forgot this is what it tastes like.”

Ivan: “Here, take this.”

Roy: “Eh? Why...?”

Ivan: “The rest is yours. Savor them carefully.”

Roy: “You’re giving it to me? Thank you, Nii-chan!”

Doggy: “......”

Ivan: “Wipe off that creepy look on your face.”

Doggy: “Such a foul-mouth as usual.”

Izumi: (After receiving the tin of candy from Ivan, Roy eats the candies one by one with care.)　

Roy: “Oh man, I ate the last one.”

Ivan: “Doggy gave me the location of the undead hideout. We can go raid there.”

“You can buy candies or gum with the reward later.”

Roy: “Yeah! And then we’ll eat together with the three of us!”

Ivan: “I don’t really... Oh well, sure.”

Izumi: (And then three years had passed... Roy, who is now an undead, is wandering around being hungry.)　

(He then picks up a tin of candy rolling at his feet.)

Roy: “...?”

*sniff sniff*

“...Smells bad.”

“...Only rocks. Empty.”

"......”

“...I want to eat humans.”

―Candy shop―

Taichi: (Is there a tin of candy here?)

...There it is!

Excuse me, I want to buy this please.

―Lounge (Evening)―

Taichi: ......

......

*nom*

Izumi: Taichi-kun seems kinda down, is he okay?

Banri: Well, that guy’s always been the type to empathize with his role.

I’m sure he’s fine.

Izumi: I see...

Taichi: ...Even if Roy forgets, I won’t forget.

Story Clear!

Mini Talk Translation

Request: Write a thank-you letter to your roommate

Homare: At long last, it's my turn to take the stage.

Hmhm… writing a thank-you letter to my roommate, is it? A simple task for one such as myself.

Though, while Hisoka-kun has many things to be grateful to me for, I can't say it goes both ways, so it's actually rather difficult.

If I had to say, I suppose his sleep talking has granted inspiration before.

Just the other day he was muttering about an "ultimate marshmallow…", which I found rather amusing.

Hisoka: …Write a thank-you letter to my roommate?

So, to Alice? What a pain…

Plus, Alice has lots of stuff to thank me for, but I don't have any for him.

…If I had to say, he makes sure we don't run out of marshmallows. That's the only thing I can compliment him on.

shiki: Congrats on your long-awaited pilgrimage to the Holy Land! Happy for you!

momo: Haven’t gotten to the Holy Land yet. Gotta calm down first

Iv: lol you’ve gone all that way and still haven’t done that?

momo: It’s called the Holy Land because it’s a sacred place that you can’t just wander into, so it’d be impolite to be too careless about it

Kar: What’s with the sudden essay lmao

Iv: bestie’s trying to hit the nerd count

shiki: You’ve been working hard all this time to get to the Holy Land, so you should enjoy it to the fullest.

momo: I’ll do that!

*Bump*

Towa: !?

???: “--Gh.”

Towa: Huh…

Towa: (He’s crouching down? I wonder if he’s okay… is it my fault for bumping into him…?)

???: “The hell are you doing?”

Towa: (Huh? That voice, I think I’ve heard it before…)

???: “C’mon, let me give you a hand.”

Towa: …G-GOD-za’s Haruto Asuka and Shift Arakawa!?

Shift: “It’s no use~... I can’t walk~...”

Haruto: “You drank too much.”

Shift: “My life’s a mess… I can’t even take another step forward…”

Haruto: “Quit overreacting just because you two broke up!”

Towa: (Ah, could it be… this is Veludo Way’s specialty…)

Shift: “I’m not overreacting! I’m always stuck playing a supporting role. At best, I’m just here to be used. I’ll never have a starring role!”

Shift: “If I keep living like this, I’ll just be stuck as a supporting role in someone else’s life.”

Shift: “What’s even the point of living like this…?”

Haruto: “Then live your own life, not someone else’s. The reason you can’t do that is because you put others at the center as the starring role.”

Haruto: “You’re the leading role in your own life. You’re the one who gets to decide what kind of life you live.”

Shift: “I’m the starring role in my own life…”

Towa: (I can’t believe they can do theater like this without a script…)

Towa: (I’ve only ever seen videos of street acts, but they were doing it so naturally. Amazing…)

Haruto: Thank you very much~!

Towa: --.

Shift: Past GOD-za performances are streaming until tomorrow! It’s only for a limited time, so don’t miss out!

*Applause*

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Towa: (It was way too lucky of me to be able to see a street act done by GOD-za’s top two here…!)

Shift: Ah, sorry for bumpin’ into ya before.

Towa: !! No! Don’t worry about it!

Shift: See ya.

Haruto: Thanks for watching us~.

*Footsteps*

Towa: Haaah~... I should’ve taken a video…

Towa: (Veludo Way really is the place to see street acts done by a whole bunch of different theater companies.)

Towa: (Maybe I’ll see them too…)

Towa: (No way, it’d be impossible to have that kind of crazy luck two times in a row, but, but, what if I really did meet my oshi…)

Towa: --.

*Paper rustling*

Towa: (It’s something that’s way too good to ever actually happen, but I’ve decided that in the unlikely event that I do meet him, I’m going to make sure I get him to autograph this.)

Towa: (My most treasured possession…)

Towa: Ah, wait, did I bring a pen to get his autograph…

Towa: (Huh, I don’t have it. Did I seriously forget it~?)

*Wind blows*

Towa: Ah--!

*Paper falls to the ground*

???: …?

Masumi: …Ah. (It’s a curry bun food truck… I’ll buy some for Director.) (The line isn’t that long. I bet I’ll be able to buy them right away.)

Shopkeeper: Come on up!

Masumi: I’ll take… (…) …7 of these curry buns.

Shopkeeper: I see, 7 curry buns! Then your total is…

Chikage: Here you go.

Masumi: !

Shopkeeper: Oh, is this your friend?

Chikage: Yes… I’m his family member.

Shopkeeper: Is that so? Well, here you go. 7 curry buns.

Masumi: …Thanks.

Shopkeeper: You’re very welcome~!

Masumi: Hey, I was going to pay for them.

Chikage: How about I take the amount for Director’s share then?

Masumi: …How did you know I got more than just Director’s share?

Chikage: I suppose... if I was in the same situation as you, then I would have bought the same thing.

Masumi: Hmm…

Chikage: You’re on your way home too, aren’t you? Come on. Let’s head back quickly before the curry buns get cold.

Masumi: …Right.

-pause-

*door opens*

Masumi: I’m home.

Chikage: I’m home.

Izumi: Welcome back, you two.

Masumi: Here. For you.

Izumi: Huh? Are these… curry buns? Mmm~. They look yummy and smell great! Thanks, Masumi-kun!

Masumi: I’m glad you like them. Your happy-looking face is the absolute cutest…

Izumi: (There’s 7 curry buns in here. I’m sure they’re for me and the rest of Spring troupe.) Well, seeing as they’re fresh, let’s eat them right now. Why don’t you two join me?

Masumi: I’ll eat with you.

Chikage: I suppose I’ll have some too, if I’m not getting in the way.

Masumi: …

Izumi: (Masumi-kun… is really bearing with it!)

Masumi: Today only. I’ll give you a special pass.

Chikage: Thank you.

Izumi: Alright, don’t mind if I dig in right away. …Mhm, it’s delicious!

Masumi: I feel like it’s even more tasty since I’m eating it with you.

Chikage: The spices also work as a nice accent. Although it could be spicier for me.

Izumi: Oh, by the way, Masumi-kun. We got the results back from your survey.

Masumi: Survey?

Chikage: The one for the spin-off project?

Izumi: That’s right.

Masumi: …That project where we’re going to act out and stream spin-off stories of one of our side characters?

Izumi: Right. And so, Nero from your 8th play was chosen!

Masumi: I see…

Chikage: In that case, it seems like Sakuya will inevitably make an appearance as well. If it’s Nero, then him and Blanc are a set, aren’t they?

Izumi: That being said, we really just got the results back so the script isn’t set at all yet. We also told Tsuzuru-kun about it earlier, but I suspect the story will end up being about the twins…

Chikage: I’m sure Tsuzuru will listen to any request you have.

Masumi: …It’s fine. I’ll leave it to him.

Izumi: The script is still only an outline, but I think it would be a good idea to prepare for your role as much as you can right now. A lot of the guys spent time preparing for their roles for the spin-off project, so it would be better to start where you can now, and work on it little by little.

Masumi: I got it. I’ll do that.

Chikage: You should start by talking with your other half about it while giving him his curry bun then.

Masumi: *Sigh*… I guess I have to.

Chikage: “I guess I have to,” he says… even though he was the one who bought them for everyone.

Izumi: Fufu.

Act 12

Episode 1: The Bing Bang Dream

Working w/ Maybelle Lace

Note: As you read, you will see that some sentences highlighted in a different color, this is what they indicate.

Pink: Flashback of the past

Blue: The Character(s) is/are acting

❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀

???: Its dangerous, so make sure to hold onto our hands.

Sakuya: Okay!

???: Come take a look, Sakuya. The ocean continues on to the other side.

Sakuya: The ocean is so big!

???: That's right.

???: Did you know, Sakuya? In this town--

.....

Citron: …uya… Sakuya... Are you alright?

Sakuya: ...ngh.

Sakuya: Huh...? Why am I...?

Citron: You had been crying in your sleep. Did you have a scary dream?

Sakuya: ….I can't remember much of it but I think it was about something nostalgic. It made me feel lonely…

Citron: A nostalgic dream? Was it the time when the Big Bang created the universe?~

Sakuya: I don’t think it was from that long ago..!

Citron: Oh! We must eat breakfast soon, or we’ll miss practice!

Sakuya: You’re right! Let’s hurry!

....…

Misumi: Wasn’t that guy with the enemy?

Muku: Who is he?

Tenma: Wait, what IS your name?

Sakuya: Oh, my name is Saku.

Tenma: Right, apparently, this guy’s searching for the planet he was born on.

Izumi: (Rehearsals for the second part are going smoothly because of the success from the first half. The advantage of having a second part is that we can make use of both strong and weak points from the first half.)

Izumi: (The members that appeared in the first part of the play already feel comfortable with their roles because of their prior appearance, and since the Spring Troupe members finally get to make their appearance in the second part, they have a high level of enthusiasm.)

Izumi: (Everyone’s collective energies is creating a good atmosphere in the practice room.)

Izumi: Let’s take a short break.

Chikage: Since the atmosphere of the play has already been set from the beginning, everything has a fresh and different feel from the usual.

Itaru: I’m getting excited now that the costumes are complete.

These men (づ￣ ³￣)づ

Tsuzuru: Well, this IS the kind of fantasy feel you love after all.

Itaru: I've been found out.

Citron: Itaru is easy to understand.

Sakuya: I’m so happy I finally get to perform with the spring troupe!

Citron: Now, you will no longer feel lonely, Sakuya! Dreaming of the Big Bang will only make you cry.

Tsuzuru: What the? How are those two things even connected?!

Sakuya: I can’t remember exactly how it went but I don’t think it was about the Big Bang!

Izumi: Is it true that you cried from your dream?

Sakuya: Oh…well… It’s a dream that I’ve been having every now and then.

Sakuya: The scenery is unfamiliar to me... but it’s not a scary dream though.

Citron: If Sakuya cries from his dreams again, all of the members of the Spring Troupe are required to gather in room 101.

Sakuya: But everything is okay though!

Chikage: I’ll be there anytime if it’s for our leader.

Tsuzuru: No need to be shy about it Sakuya.

Masumi: I’ll go if I’m awake.

Itaru: Yeah… he’s definitely not coming.

...…

Masumi: Should we get started?

Izumi: Hmm, let’s wait a bit longer… In anticipation of the performance soon, this afternoon—

*Door opens*

Rento: Yo.

Akashi: …Um, sorry to bother you.

Izumi: Oh, hey you guys!

Izumi: Thanks again for providing the wonderful lighting during the first part of the performance!

Izumi: It’s because of you guys, that we were able to take our production to a higher level, and the audience absolutely loved it.

Rento: Well, ain’t that swell.

Akashi: N-No, it was nothing… Izumi… it’s because you gave me such wonderful colors…

Masumi: Too close.

Akashi: ?!

Izumi: Masumi?

Masumi: Four meters away.

Izumi: Why?!

Itaru: The Masumi sensor went off.

Citron: A forecast of the storm of love!

Kazunari: Renton!

Rento: Hey! I brought over the CD that I bought the other day.

Kazunari: Yippee! Gimme gimme!

Izumi: (As expected of the two with high social skills, they became friends before I knew it.)

Tetsuro: …

Izumi: Tetsuro! Didn’t see you there!

Tetsuro: …

Akashi: Ah…

Izumi: (I wonder if they’re seeing each other eye to eye? Maybe they’d get along well since they’re both the quiet type.)

Tenma: Both Tetsuro and our two new guys sure have strong personalities.

Rento: The troupe members here are also characters.

Yuki: Can’t deny that.

Izumi: You guys are all reliable though because of your skills.

Rento: It’s a small theater, so we can only do so much but let’s make the second half even better than the first.

Akashi: I-I’ll do my best…

Izumi: Now that you mention it, it would be nice if we could upgrade our equipment a bit more.

Rento: Yeah, you’re right… last time I brought in my own equipment.

Izumi: But, if we can make this performance a success, we may be able to renovate the theater and level up in various ways!

Rento: Well then, let’s do our best.

Kazunari: Does this mean you’ll continue working with us?

Rento: Well, I’ll do it as long as I don’t get fired.

Akashi: Ah, me too

Izumi: Great!

Izumi: Alright, first, I’d like to reintroduce you to the leading roles of the second half of the show, starting with Sakuya.

Sakuya: I’m Sakuya Sakuma and I’m the lead for the second half of the show. Once again, I look forward to working with you.

Rento: Yea, nice to meet’cha.

Akashi: What bright… colors.

Izumi: (In addition to the high level motivation, the staff has been strengthened, and the interpretation the troupe members have of their roles have deepened through the success of the first half.)

Izumi: (If we can progress without a hitch until the curtains open, our second half will definitely be a success as well!)

.....

*Phone rings*

Reni: …

Yukio: Hello?

Reni: It’s me, kamikizaka.

Yukio: Reni?! Oh, thank god… I need you to listen to me!

Reni: Huh? What’s wrong?

Yukio: My daughter came to see my play the other day!

Reni: O...oh… I see.

Yukio: I was happy when you and I talked over the phone but I'd didn't think I'd be able to see my daughter in person too. It made me really happy.

Yukio: This show was super important to me because it was my last performance in that theater. I’m so glad my daughter got to see it.

Yukio: Now, I’ve moved to a new town and joined theater troupe here. It’s hard work but it’s fulfilling.

Yukio: I‘ve got to admit though, seeing my daughter made me miss everyone else in Japan.

Reni: …I’ll bring you back to Japan. That’s what I promised you.

Yukio: Yeah… Oh, speaking of which, what’s up with you today?

Reni: Actually, there’s something I’ve been meaning to talk to you about.

Reni: I was talking with Kashima regarding your disappearance and heard that you left the theater world due to “certain circumstances”.

Reni: I didn’t get to ask you directly the last time we talked but I ended up hearing about the incident from Kusumi Ikaruga.

Reni: With the help of Syu, I managed to get some information which led me to a certain person.

Reni: I understand you are keeping silent for the sake of your troupe’s members here in Japan. However, in order to properly corner the opponent, I need this information.

Reni: I want you to believe in me and tell me the truth.

Yukio: …

Reni: If my understanding of the situation is correct, then the one who banished you from the theater world in Japan was—

🔺Misumi's minichats translations🔺

It's my first time posting and translating something like this. My japanese is still basic and I used a translator, so if there's any issues pls let me know!

Misumi: I loved christmas since i was little.

-

1/4

There are triangles trees in all places, and Santa wears his triangle hat!

But since I've came here, we have parties, gift exchanges and putting on Christmas plays...

It's even more fun, and I've grown to love Christmas even more!

Ehehe, this year's Christmas will also be fun~.

2/4

Misumi: When I was little, Gramps...no, Santa gave me presents!

When we were talking about Christmas the other day, Tsumugi said he also recieved a lot of presents from Santa.

Tsumugi also wrote letters to Santa to ask for presents.

He said he gave him presents like toys and a picture book with a dog in it~.

I also recieved a triangle from Santa, I still keep it~. I'll show it to Director later.

3/4

Misumi: Director, come here!

Look, from here is very beautiful. You can see the sparkling triangle illuminations!

When I found this place, I also wanted to tell about it to you.

Ehehe, I'm glad you liked it~.

...Director, are you cold?

It's ok, here. It's warmer when we squeeze our hands together like this.

You can also hear the bells and the Christmas music from the illuminations.

I'm so happy I could watch the sparkling triangles with you, my heart is so warm!

Director, merry Christmas.

4/4 Misumi and Kumon's chat

Misumi and Kumon chat

Misumi: Run run run~ it's trianglemas~

Kumon: Wow! So many Christmas trees in various sizes!

Misumi: Hehe~. These are my favourite Christmas trees that I collected from various places.

I bought this one at the shopping district~. This one i got from a part time job~. And this one is a handmade tree!

Kumon: Wow! This is so cool! Every year you got them and have been collecting them here!

Misumi: Yes! It's Christmas season so I got them to leave in display in my room.

Kumon: Let's decorate! How about putting this yellow and green one here

Misumi: So i think I'm going to put this shiny one up here and this white one in the hallway.

Kumon: Right! It's going to look really lively!

Ah! Come to think of it, yesterday I saw a triangle tree for sale in a store from the station.

Misumi: Wow, really!? I want to see it too! Kumon, let's go to the store after this.

Kumon: Yes! Hehe, decorating you room and the dormitory with triangle trees makes them look really cool!
