★ Main Story | Act 13 - Budding Spring | Chapter 3 - One Step Up
Tumblr media
*Door opens*
Kumon: We’re back~!
Juza: We’re home.
Taichi: I’m starving~.
Tenma: Looks like Omi-san’s in charge of dinner tonight.
Tsuzuru: Smells like it’s something with a demi-glace sauce…
Omi: The beef stew will be ready soon.
Kumon: Woo~! I was hoping to eat some meat~!
Kazunari: The Yosei Uni Gang’s really building up their forces~.
Muku: Kyu-chan’s the only new one, though.
Yuki: But he’s got the presence of about two or three people.
Tsumugi: How’s college life been going, Kumon-kun?
Kumon: It’s super interesting! Unlike with my classes in high school, I actually feel motivated to study on my own.
Tumblr media
Kumon: Plus I get to be with Nii-chan!
Banri: I figured you had had that planned from the start, but you actually didn’t decide on where you were gonna go for school until much later, right?
Kumon: Hey, I thought about it a lot, y’know.
Kumon: And I didn’t just think about Nii-chan, I also made sure to think about the best college for me to go to.
Azami: The growth of someone with a brother complex.
Yuki: They still ended up at the same college, though.
Kumon: That’s ‘cause Nii-chan and Tenma-san seemed like they really liked it there!
Tenma: Well, you are right about that.
Juza: Glad ya got accepted in.
Taichi: You’ve been doing great with writing essays and doing job interview prep~.
Kumon: Hehe. That’s thanks to you, Nii-chan, and Tenma-san for teaching me so much!
Chikage: It’s so touching to see Tenma becoming the tutor.
Tenma: Thanks for that.
Kazunari: Yawn~…
Tumblr media
Tsuzuru: You seem tired, Miyoshi-san.
Kazunari: I had a deadline for some urgent work yesterday. Hardly got any sleep~.
Tsuzuru: Good work.
Muku: You suddenly seem like much more of an adult, Kazu-kun.
Kazunari: What I do is kinda just an extension of what I did in college, but once that label of “student” is gone, it makes you a little more conscious of it.
Omi: It’s a lot of work and responsibility, but it’s also a lot of fun.
Tsuzuru: Is that so…
Kazunari: You’ll get what we’re talking about in a year, Tsuzurun~.
Izumi: Omi-kun’s right, your impression of things changes once you graduate from college.
Azuma: I enjoy seeing these changes every year once spring comes.
Homare: Yes, however, there are still some of us that haven’t changed much at all.
Azuma: It’s thanks to everyone that spring is nice like this.
Tasuku: Well, even though some of us haven’t been through any major changes, I’m sure we’re all busy with something, right?
Guy: It appears that you’ve been getting more and more requests to do guest appearances, Takato.
Sakuya: Ah, actually, I’m about to get an offer to perform on a slightly bigger stage too--.
Tsumugi: Really? That’s great.
Tasuku: That’s probably the result of steadily building up your experience. Shows how much you’ve become recognized as an actor.
Tumblr media
Sakuya: Thank you so much!
Citron: I have started getting pressured to do arts and culture-related work from all over the place~.
Itaru: And I’m still annoyed that I��m stuck being treated like some mid-level NPC…
Chikage: That’s normal for having worked there for five years.
Guy: Speaking of that, I’ve been entrusting Mikage with more work, too.
Hisoka: I know how to make a few appetizers now…
Tasuku: What, like toasted marshmallows and marshmallow pizza?
Hisoka: Well, yeah, but there’s other stuff too.
Homare: To be dabbling in dishes other than ones with marshmallows… that’s quite remarkable progress!
Misumi: Speaking of new things, my friend Mii-chan just had a litter of kitties~.
Muku: Congratulations!
Tumblr media
Yuki: Why are you congratulating the Trianglien for it?
Izumi: Seems like everything’s going smoothly for the company while each of you is moving forward and changing in your own ways.
Izumi: That reminds me, the kid we met today also said he was going to be a new high school student starting in the spring.
Kumon: Huh~, what was he like?
Tsuzuru: He was an interesting one, for sure.
Masumi: He wasn’t interesting, he was annoying.
Itaru: He was an avid Masumi fan.
Izumi: He said he used to live in a rural area and that he’s been supporting us for quite some time via our streams.
Sakyo: Is that the power of MIZUNO Enterprises…?
Sakyo: We’ll have to keep up our efforts to reach an even wider audience.
Izumi: He said he was really looking forward to seeing one of our performances live.
Tasuku: There is just something different about seeing a play in person.
Sakuya: There really is. He was really looking forward to seeing it, so we’ll have to do our best not to disappoint.
Izumi: Ah, right! The idea came to me when we were talking to that kid, but--.
Izumi: How does a workshop aimed at beginners sound for the upcoming event?
Izumi: When I realized that people were interested in theater because of MANKAI Company’s performances, I thought that maybe promoting theater as a concept could be necessary too.
Izumi: And I think it’d be a good experience for us to share the joy of plays with them more directly and to have fun together.
Sakuya: That’s true, that could be a really good idea!
Citron: It sounds very fun!
Chikage: But wouldn’t people who have more experience with theater, like Tenma, Tasuku, or Tsumugi, be more suitable for teaching people than us Spring Troupe members?
Tsuzuru: He’s got a point, most of us are still pretty inexperienced actors. I mean, almost all of us were complete amateurs until a few years ago.
Masumi: I can do it.
Tumblr media
Itaru: You’re probably the least qualified to teach.
Izumi: That’s the point. You all still feel like amateurs and remember how you felt when you first stepped on stage just a few years ago.
Izumi: I’m confident that you guys will be able to convey theater from a perspective that’s closer to a beginner’s.
Izumi: It’s not a workshop for actors, and it’s definitely not just for teaching like Yuzo-san’s workshops…
Izumi: I think it should be about just trying to enjoy theater together, just like if you were reminiscing about your old selves. That’s the best we can do, I think.
Izumi: And it could be an opportunity to expand our fan base too…
Izumi: I think it’s only because of how everyone is now that we can try to make people more aware of theater.
Sakuya: Yeah… I get it. Up until now, we’ve just been doing our best in regards to ourselves, but now…
Itaru: Exactly. Maybe we’ll be able to have some fun together.
Chikage: We could be our own motivation.
Tsuzuru: Maybe I’ll even be able to get a hint for our next play.
Citron: I will take on any challenge!
Izumi: Alright, it’s decided!
Izumi: Once the date is decided on, can you take care of the flier design, Kazunari-kun?
Kazunari: You betcha!
Izumi: I’ll take care of the printing and distributing myself then.
Masumi: I’ll help.
Itaru: We’ll also need an announcement on our social media, right? Leave it to me.
Chikage: It’d be a good idea to also put something on the theater noticeboard, right?
Izumi: Alright, I’ll leave all the announcement-related stuff to you two, and then… Sakuya-kun and Citron-kun, can I leave outlining the workshop to you guys?
Sakuya: Roger that!
Tumblr media
Citron: We will think of an eggciting workshop that will eggcite everyone~!
Manager: Ah, everyo~ne, it’s almost time~!
Kumon: We gotta turn on the TV!

A3! Troupe Event Translation - Journey to the Colours (9/11)
Tumblr media
*Please read disclaimer on blog; default name set as Izumi
---
Kumon: … (I caused so much worry for not only everyone in Summer troupe, but also nii-chan and Director…) (I’ll give it my absolute all in rehearsals from tomorrow on to make up for it!)
Tumblr media
*bzz, bzz*
Kumon: Yamaguchi? Ah! I forgot to reply to him! Hello!?
Yamaguchi: “Hello? You haven’t replied since earlier. Did something happen?”
Kumon: Sorry! I was kinda all over the place… But don’t worry, I watched the last match of your high school life!
Yamaguchi: “I know because I saw you. I didn’t get a reaction back though.”
Kumon: I said I was sorry!
Yamaguchi: “So, how was it?”
Kumon: Eh? Erm, well… you were really cool out there! It was like the culmination of all the practice you put in for three years. There’s no way you wouldn’t look cool having the time of your life like that after everything you’ve done!
Yamaguchi: “Geez, what’re you talking about?”
Kumon: Also, I remembered the time I was part of the baseball team and it felt so nostalgic. I felt kinda sad and jealous seeing all of you playing in the game together. That fist bump you did at the end—you also did that in the past when we lost a game a long time ago, right?
Yamaguchi: “Ahh… right, I did do that, huh? It just came back to me.”
Kumon: Just now!? Geez, dude~. I thought you were encouraging me.
Yamaguchi: “…Well, to be honest, I wanted to play as a battery together with you until the very end, too.” “But it’s not like I won’t be able to play baseball with you anymore. Even now, we play catch and casual games together, don’t we?”
Kumon: —Yeah, that’s true! Let’s keep playing baseball together from here on out, ‘kay, Yamaguchi!
Yamaguchi: “You know it.”
Kazunari: …Kumopi looks happy.
Tenma: It looks like his fog has been lifted.
Muku: Yeah. I’m so glad.
Tumblr media
Yuki: We’d be in trouble if our lead was a wishy-washy guy.
Misumi: I can’t wait for our rehearsals starting tomorrow~.
-pause-
Tenma: “Tch, another annoying guy is here.”
Muku: “Hmph. It doesn’t matter how many people come, they’re not match for us!”
Tumblr media
Kumon: “I’ve been searching high and low for you! You can’t deceive people!”
Juza: Just now, you should keep your center of gravity a lil lower—.
Kumon: …Like this? Woah, it’s a lot easier to do now! Thanks, nii-chan!
Tumblr media
Juza: It’s ‘cause you practiced. You’re movin’ better than before in general.
Kumon: Ehehe! Nii-chan complimented me~!
Muku: Good for you, Kyu-chan!
Banri: Kumon’s got good reflexes to begin with, so he’s quick to get the hang of it.
Izumi: That’s true. It’s great it looks like he’s able to focus now and get back on track.
-pause-
Kumon: Hmm…
Kazunari: What’s up, Kumopi?
Tumblr media
Kumon: I’m trying to come up with a title for the show~. Director told me the title is gonna be finalized soon, so I should let her know if I have any good ideas.
Kazunari: Gotcha~. I gotta fix the flyer design soon too. So, you got any ideas?
Kumon: I’ve wracked my brain, but…
Kazunari: The Tale of The Wicked Heavenly Dragon Son Goku’s Adventure… Extreme West Quest… those titles would totes suit you, don’tcha think~!
Kumon: Well, I tried thinking of words that are phonetically similar, but nothing’s clicked yet~.
Kazunari: Phonetically similar, huh~… AH! In that case, how does this sound?
-pause-
Kumon: This happens every time, but we got the show in the blink of an eye, huh?
Tenma: When rehearsals got into full swing, it felt like we were just blasting through it.
Tumblr media
Muku: Opening day is nerve wracking no matter how many times I experience it. Are you holding up, Kyu-chan?
Kumon: I feel nervous, but I’m also super psyched!
Kazunari: Kumopi’s so dependable~!
Yuki: You were ridiculously pale during your first leading show.
Misumi: Now he looks raring to go~!
Tumblr media
Muku: You’ve grown a tremendous amount compared to back then.
Kumon: Ehehe.
Izumi: Everyone will be fine. Just perform as you did during rehearsals. Be careful not to injure yourselves, alright?
Kumon: Got it!
Tenma: It’s the overly eager guys like that who are the most at risk.
Yuki: Takes one to know one.
Tenma: No one asked!
Kumon: Ahaha!
Izumi: (A lively color that’s bright enough to blow away all their nerves—this is what you call Summer troupe…)
*flashback starts*
Izumi: …”Journey to the Colours”?*
Kumon: Yeah! Kazu-san came up with it!
Kazunari: I got it from Kumopi’s idea to use a phonetic equivalent~. Our costumes and the visuals for the world setting in our upcoming show are more colourful and vibrant than usual, aren’t they? I hope our play will also overflow with brilliance, just like Sanzo’s journey with his friends~!
Tumblr media
Tsuzuru: …Great idea. Being highly saturated with colours suits Summer troupe.
Izumi: Yeah. Let’s go with that!
*flashback ends*
Izumi: (I’m glad we came up with a title that fits Summer troupe perfectly.) (May everyone in the Summer Troupe shine even more vividly on the stage on their opening day—.)
Manager: It’s almost showtime~!
Kumon: Group huddle, guys!
Kazunari: Okay~.
Kumon: Everyone, sorry for causing you so much worry this time! Since it was my second time playing the lead role, I thought that I had to work hard and show everyone my best side. But I know I ended up causing unnecessary trouble. I felt lost and depressed when I remembered my baseball team days… But I realized once again that the reason why I’m able to stand on stage with such confidence is because I have all of you. Because I'm with you guys, I feel like I can do anything. We’re definitely going to make this how a success! LET’S GO! TO TENJIKU!
Tumblr media
Kazunari: YEAH!
Muku: Yeah!
Misumi: LET’S GO!
Yuki: He’s hyping us up like a baseball team, huh?
Tenma: It feels like we’re going to Nationals again.
-pause-
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Going on a journey with someone you don’t get along with is hell…”
Goku [Kumon]: “Ehh? You think so? Travelling is fun no matter who you’re with!” “Ah, it says they’re holding a festival right now. I wanna go!”
Tumblr media
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Listen, Goku. This is an ascetic journey to Tenjiku in order to study sutras. It is not a sightseeing trip.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Since I’ve come all the way here, I’d like to stop by a town a little further south.” “I heard there’s a popular sweets shop. They have fluffy pao cakes.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “No festivals and no sweets shops. There will be too many women. It’s dangerous. I’d much rather pass through the mountain range over there where we’re bound not to meet anyone.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “If a regular human like our master climbed such a steep mountain, he would freeze to death.”
Tumblr media
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “…That’s enough. I will head to the temple lodging where we are staying today by myself.”
Goku [Kumon]: “That’s too dangerous! Master, if you travel alone, you’ll get gobbled up by demons in no time.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “*Sigh*…”
Goku [Kumon]: “Since everyone wants to go somewhere different, why don’t we take turns and visit all of them in order?”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “What a pain.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “I’m absolutely against going to a festival or sweets shop.”
Goku [Kumon]: “Now, now. You might have fun if you go! Let’s go, let’s go!”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “My sweets shop will be first on the list then. I heard there’s a huge line, so we have to go early tomorrow morning.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “*Sigh*… good grief. I am not the least bit interested. But I suppose I must…”
-pause-
*jumps down*
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Older brother, is that human…?”
Tumblr media
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “There’s no mistaking it. He’s the spitting image of Genjo Sanzo’s portrait.”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “I wonder if Sanzo will be tasty…”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “They say eating him will prolong your lifespan, but I wonder about the taste. Well, we’ll know once we devour him.”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “I can’t wait!”
*dream starts*
Gojo in his previous life [Misumi]: “Enough already. This is different than what you’ve been saying up until now.”
Hakkai in his previous life [Yuki]: “I can’t go along with your selfish whims anymore, Goku.”
Tumblr media
Goku in his previous life [Kumon]: “Eh~? But it’s more fun this way.”
Gojo in his previous life [Misumi]: “I heard you were going to create a world with only women, so I went along with your plan.”
Hakkai in his previous life [Yuki]: “And I jumped on board because you said that all the food in the world would become extremely spicy gourmet food I love if I went along with you.” “I’m done here~!”
Gojo in his previous life [Misumi]: “I’m out too.”
*walks away*
Goku in his previous life [Kumon]: “What the hell… I can’t help it, you know? I changed my mind.”
Heaven’s voice: “Goku… you have manipulated those around you at your own fickle whims and you have thrown the world in to chaos.” “You cannot return to heaven until you repent.”
Tumblr media
Goku [Kumon]: “HUH!? Why!? No way! I just did what I thought was fun! I’m not doing anything wrong!”
*dreams ends*
Goku [Kumon]: “*Yaaawn*…”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “You look sleepy.”
Goku [Kumon]: “I had a weird dream.”
Tumblr media
Gojo [Misumi]: “It’s just before dawn. Anyone would be sleepy. You said there’d be a wait, but this is one hell of a line. Where is the store?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “There’s still 5 hours before the store opens, but look at this queue…”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “This isn't even the worst. When it’s bad, there are people who pull two all-nighters.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Did you say two? You mean there are people who will stand in line here for two days straight?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “How dreadful… Will we have to endure this for two whole days…?”
Goku [Kumon]: “I’m tired.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Goku. You’re the one who originally said you would go everywhere the others wanted to go, remember?”
Tumblr media
Gojo [Misumi]: “You said we might have fun if we went.”
Goku [Kumon]: “Well this isn’t fun! It’s boring. I wanna go somewhere else!”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “How selfish…”
Girl A: “Excuse me. Can we take a picture together?”
Girl B: “Are you a celebrity, mister? You look so cool!”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Err… n-no, I’m…”
Tumblr media
Hakkai [Yuki]: “And as usual, he’s unnecessarily popular with the ladies~.”
Goku [Kumon]: “Hey, hey. Can I head to the next place already?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “You threw in the towel way too fast. You’ve only been in line for a few minutes.”
Goku [Kumon]: “I’m at my limit! See ya~.”
*runs off*
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Wait, Goku. Simply acting on your own like that—.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Master, anything you say to Goku will go in one ear and out the other.”
Girl C: “Please take a selfie with me!”
Girl D: “What’s this line for? Is it to take selfies with that guy? I’ll get in line too!”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Would you look at that~. A new line has formed in front of Gojo.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “S-sorry… I’ll just… head back to the temple first…”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “And now Gojo…”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “You guys sure lack grit~. If you just wait a little longer, you’ll be able to eat an exquisite pao cake full of cream.” “The cream in the pao cakes are threefold: they contain honey, condensed milk, and chocolate.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “That’s… going to be too sweet for me, don’t you think? I’ll just get a drink.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Once you enter the store, there’s a sign that says you have to order one pao cake per person.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “…My apologies, but I am going to head back to the temple first.”
Tumblr media
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Huh~! Even you, Master~?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “If our palates don’t match, then we won’t be able to share a meal together…”
-pause-
*door opens*
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Phew… yes, the temple really is the most relaxing place of all.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “You are right about that… there’s not a single woman here…”
Tumblr media
Goku [Kumon]: “So, what should we do? Baseball? Soccer? BBQ?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “What are you thinking in a place like this? This is a spot where one calmly faces their own selves.”
Goku [Kumon]: “Aww, that’s boring.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “You should read one of the scriptures too.”
Goku [Kumon]: “You’re just saying that because you like scriptures.” “There’s no point just reading books like that. We gotta get out and see the great wide world!” “Come on, let’s all go play together!”
Tumblr media
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “You’re going to receive bad karma if you speak about scriptures like that—.”
Heaven’s voice: “You know too little of the outside world. While it is impressive that you're so diligent about studying, you are simply clinging to your books.”
Tumblr media
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “—Please leave me be and go on your own. I will stay here.”
Goku [Kumon]: “Eh~! What about you then, Gojo?”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Of course I am going to say with Master. As a disciple, that’s only natural.”
Goku [Kumon]: “I know it’s because you won't get caught up by women here! Ugh, whatever. I’m going alone then. You guys are lame!”
*runs off*
Gojo [Misumi]: “How dare he talks to Master that way? Good grief.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “What in the world was that voice earlier…”
Gojo [Misumi]: “What is the matter?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “ …Oh, no. It’s nothing.”
-pause-
Goku [Kumon]: “I really don’t see eye to eye with those guys, huh~? Festivals are definitely more fun.”
*shoots*
Goku [Kumon]: “Ah, you ladies are amazing at shooting the targets. Here, have some juice.”
Tumblr media
Lady A: “Thanks!”
Lady B: “Do you wanna try shooting too?”
Goku [Kumon]: “Don’t mind if I do! Target practice is a staple at festivals, after all~.”
*shoots*
Lady A: “Hey, you’re a pro at this!”
Goku [Kumon]: “Is there anything you want? Which one should I aim for?”
Lady A: “If you’re asking, then that plushie over there!”
Goku [Kumon]: “A plushie, huh?”
*shoots*
Lady B: “Amazing! You hit it right on the mark!”
Goku [Kumon]: “Here you go.”
Lady A: “Thanks! Shall I treat you to something as thanks?”
Goku [Kumon]: “If you insist, let’s go to karaoke.”
Lady B: “Are you by yourself? Did you not come here with friends?”
Goku [Kumon]: “No worries, no worries! I don’t get along with them at all~. Let’s hang out ‘til morning~.”
-pause-
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Welcome. Table for one? Do you have any companions—.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “For one.”
Tumblr media
Ginkaku [Muku]: “…Please take a seat over here.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “I finally made it into the store~. I’ll have the special, fluffy, three-layered pao cake, please!”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Coming right up.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Gojo and the others should’ve came too. Too bad, so sad~.”
-pause-
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Apologies for the wait. Here’s a special, fluffy, three-layered pao cake. Please enjoy it while it’s hot.” (I didn’t expect Sanzo to be absent, but the less obstacles the better. Now quickly, with one bite of the poisoned pao cake…)
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Don’t mind if I do—.”
Ginkaku [Muku]: (Nice. With that, it’ll be one down for the count.)
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Ah! Hold on, I forgot something important. I have to take a pic and post it to inste.”
Tumblr media
Ginkaku [Muku]: “—“
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Mmm, which angle… ah, this might come out well. I think this angle is more aesthetic…”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Dear customer, please dig in alread— Ah, no. Shall we take the picture together?”
Tumblr media
Hakkai [Yuki]: “I’m good. Hmm. The position of the fork and knife are a bit off…
Ginkaku [Muku]: (Oh my god. Hurry up and eat it…)
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Wait a minute?”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “—” (Did he figure out who I am?)
Hakkai [Yuki]: “The pao cake on the table next to me is adorable! It looks tasty~. Which menu item is that?”
Customer beside him: “This one? It’s the deluxe, fluffy-wuffy, four-layered pao cake.” “I’ve always wanted to try it, so I rode on horseback for four days straight…”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “It was worth coming, wasn’t it~!”
Customer beside him: “Totally! Ah, would you like to try a bite?”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Are you sure!? Alright, I’ll share some of mine too.”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Um—”
Customer beside him: “Thanks so much! I also wanted to try the special one, but I didn’t think I could finish everything myself.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “The best part of eating desserts is when everyone shares a bit of their own, after all~.”
Customer beside him: “I feel you~. Alright, let’s eat!”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Ah, hold on—"
Customer beside him: “Urk—"
*collapses*
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Eh!? Are you okay!?”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Tch.”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Wait, are you… a demon!?”
*transforms*
Ginkaku [Muku]: “I guess the jig is up. It's a bit of a hassle, but I suppose I’ll silence him with brute force.”
Tumblr media
Hakkai [Yuki]: “How dare you interrupt our happy dessert time… I'll teach you that grudges over food are terrifying.”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Hmph. Shut it, piggy. I’ll turn you into char siu in no time!”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “HA!? Don’t get carried away just because you look a little cute.”
*swords clash*
Ginkaku [Muku]: “—Geh. This char siu is surprisingly good…”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “DON’T CALL ME CHAR SIU!”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “If that’s the case… AH! IT’S THE MIRACLE, FWUFFY, SEVEN-LAYER PAO CAKE ON THE SECRET MENU!”
Hakkai [Yuki]: “Huh, what’d you say? Where?”
Ginkaku [Muku]: “Take this!’
*slashes*
Hakkai [Yuki]: “—Urgh.”
*falls*
-pause-
Gojo [Misumi]: “Why don’t you take a rest, Master?”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “There’s no need to concern yourself with me.”
Tumblr media
Gojo [Misumi]: “Or would you like to go to the festival that Goku was talking about? Although, I have chronic hay fever so I’d have to stay back—”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “Festival…”
Heaven’s voice: “You should travel to Tenjiku in the west. Go see more of the outside world.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “No, I’m okay as well.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “I see! If you say so! Very well then.”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Hello~? Somebody?”
Gojo [Misumi]: “—. It sounds like there’s a woman’s voice outside.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “…”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Master? Master? Right, when Master starts reading scriptures, he doesn’t register the sounds around him…”
-pause-
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “You there~. Save me~.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Um, me? …Err, you see… Ah. Oh, no, the pain! I SudDenlY GoT an UpSeT StoMaCH…!”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Then you there, monk~. Please save me from my misery~.”
Tumblr media
Gojo [Misumi]: (? She gave up just like that…?)
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Oh, monk~.”
Gojo [Misumi]: “Master, please be careful! I suspect she is no ordinary woman!”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Tch. How did you know?”
Gojo [Misumi]: “I have never once met a woman who does not approach me!”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Aren’t you embarrassed saying that yourself…?”
Gojo [Misumi]: “It’s the truth, so what do you want me to do! Just to be clear, I’m not bragging or anything!”
*transforms*
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Well, whatever. It was the right call to station one of us here. It seems Ginkaku got the short end of the stick.”
Tumblr media
Gojo [Misumi]: “Master, please run!”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Not on my watch!”
*slashes*
Gojo [Misumi]: “Geh—”
*falls*
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Hmph. Child’s play.”
Heaven’s voice: “Books are not everything.”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “…I…”
Kinkaku [Tenma]: “Now then, how should I cook Sanzo?”
Gojo [Misumi]: “MASTER!”
Sanzo [Kazunari]: “—!!”

“what do you hate OR like most about your roomie?”
misumi flips the card around in his hand, humming to himself in thought. across the circle, kumon looks at him expectantly, knowing the answer will be about him.
it's a cute little homemade card game where they all just wrote down questions and depending on who the (plastic coke) bottle lands on, they have to answer. this time, it's misumi's turn.
the question is simple!! if it were tenma and yuki, they would have a LOT to say about each other. if it were muku and kazunari, they would have a LOT to say about each other, but in a nicer sense! now, misumi, surprisingly, seems to be thinking deeply.
“which one?” he then asks, to everyone else's surprise.
“y'know,” kazunari tells him, “kumoppi? like, your roomie? you don't have other roomies do you?”
“i mean, yeah, we do!” misumi pipes up, turning to kumon with a grin. kumon, on the other hand, has eyes going wide.
“... uh, w- what do you mean, misumi-san? ah, tenma-san—”
“quit joking around!!” tenma interjects, one- no, two hands gripping onto kumon's jacket. “w-w-what are you saying you do? there's only two of you in there!!”
“nooo, we have a third roommate!” misumi says, brandishing three of his fingers. “they're a little shy but they've been there ever since i first moved in!”
“which was ages ago...” yuki notes.
“a- ah, yeah... misumi-san tells me about them, but i've never seen them!!” kumon says, looking earnestly sincere. “apparently, they didn't show much presence since i moved in but got a bit more active once they got used to me!!”
“wait, i'm confused, huh?” kazunari looks between misumi and kumon. “a third roomie?”
“yeah, we're triangular roommates!!”
“c- could it be... a- are you talking about a ghost?” muku guesses, to which tenma shrieks.
“there's no damn way!!” he claims, “w- why the hell are we just finding out about this now and since when!? and that's just not true, there's no way!!”
“yes, way!” kumon says, turning to tenma with determination to convince him. “sometimes, my stuff goes missing and i just know it's them pulling pranks on me and taking my things!”
“isn't it possible that that's just you misplacing things?” yuki says, avoiding the way tenma tries to grab onto him next when tenma realizes kumon isn't going to protect him from this ghost they're talking about.
“sometimes, the ghost takes our triangles, and sometimes brings us new ones too,” misumi adds on, “also turns lights on and off, opens the door, unlocks it too, tips things over—”
“is it a ghost cat?” yuki raises an eyebrow.
muku leans into his ear. “can ghost cats open doors?”
“they can if you believe hard enough,” yuki responds.
“that's like... totes scary though. you two aren't scared?” asks kazunari.
“at first, yeah!!” kumon nods. “but eventually, i got used to it too!! i think maybe they were as scared of me as i was of them!”
“they welcomed me from the start~ so nope, not scared at all! △△△”
“did you-” kazunari starts but stops himself, “nevermind! ☆”
“ ? ” muku makes a worried expression. “oh no... i feel bad for the ghost. they've been here for such a long time and we haven't acknowledged them at all...”
“it's fine by them, i think!! but if you wanna meet them, we can ask them in advance and let you know if they wanna talk!” misumi says with a grin.
“only misumi-san can see and hear them though,” kumon says.
“isn't this story familiar?” asks yuki, “wait...”
“that's enough!! i swear, this prank has gone on long enough! there's no way ghosts are real!”
yuki snorts. “you're trembling, though.”
“tenten, be nice!” kazunari says, “the ghost is afraid of people!!”
“I'M MORE AFRAID OF IT THAN—”
“go to sleep.”
... sakyo stands in the doorway to the living room, where they were all settled playing their game under dim lights. he's frowning, arms crossed, in his nightwear. the group apologizes before asking to stay up a bit more just to clean up and Sakyo sighs and lets them. misumi grins.
“i do like something about them, though.
“... sometimes, they say they would visit all of you too, when it's sure you cannot see them, in the morning at two...”
tenma shrieks and they're not allowed another slumber party until sakyo forgets in a month or so.

A3! Mikage Hisoka | SSR - Supreme ★ Winter Fruits | Translation
Tumblr media
Quote: “My head hurts a bit... I ate too much shaved ice at once... Sigh... it’s so hot... I’ll take a good rest in that refreshing room when I’m back.”
Thanks Noodle for your help proofreading the backstage! (´。• ᵕ •。`)
--------------------------
Disclaimer: Neither English nor Japanese is my native language, but I did my best with the translation. If you find any mistakes, feel free to tell me. By  the way, Director’s name will be Izumi.
Sea Green Driftage / 1  
Tumblr media
Kumon: And, it’s done! My rainbow shaved ice! Muku: Wow, it’s so pretty! I can’t take my eyes away… Banri: Shirokuma? Tenma: Where is the lemon syrup? Omi: Aah, that one is… Misumi: I finished mine too! Yuki: Your classic Mr. Triangle? Kazunari: There are too many instablammable shaved ices to take photos of! Izumi: Fufu. It’s a unique set of masterpieces. Kazunari: Hey, can we use these sweets too? Izumi: Mhm. I thought they might work well as toppings. Kazunari: Huh? There are marshmallows here. Izumi: Those are Hisoka’s marshmallows. We shouldn’t use them. Tasuku: I think those will be alright. There are more of them, after all. Tsumugi: Now that I notice it, Hisoka-kun isn’t here. Homare: Hisoka-kun might be resting in Azuma-san and Guy-san’s room because of the heat. Kazunari: Why in AzuGuy’s room? Homare: According to Hisoka-kun, their room is the coolest one. Tsumugi: Maybe it’s because of the recent hot days that he has been shutting himself in, except at night for his bartender job… Homare: I’ve told him that taking sunlight once in a while is good for him, but nothing. Homare: He won’t listen to me because the heat could melt him. Banri: That’s like a vampire… or better said, he is now a marshmallow. Izumi: But shaved ice refreshes you. I will go call him.
Tumblr media
Izumi: Hisoka-san. Izumi: (The air is nice and cool here, and there’s a subtle fragrance too…) Izumi: (And Hisoka-san is… oh, he’s there.) Hisoka: Zzz… Izumi: (Fufu. He’s sound asleep hugging Pen Pen.) Izumi: It feels so comfortable… Izumi: (Now I feel bad about waking him up…) Hisoka: … Izumi: (I’ve always wondered… if his bangs don’t bother him.) Izumi: (It feels hotter when your hair hangs on like that…) Hisoka: …What’s wrong? Izumi: Woah, you surprised me…! Were you awake? Hisoka: …I just woke up. You keep staring at my face, Director. Izumi: Ahmm… Izumi: (But he might have a reason to leave his bangs long, maybe even for style…)
Choose 1: Nothing.
Izumi: …It’s nothing. Hisoka: …I see. Izumi: This room is refreshing and pleasant. Hisoka: Mhm, it’s comfortable. The temperature is a bit lower, and my favorite incense is burning when I come. Izumi: (That’s too perfect…! It’s also Azuma-san and Guy-san’s fault that Hisoka-san doesn’t want to go out…)
Choose 2: I thought you were so comfy. 
Izumi: I thought you seemed so comfortable like that. Hisoka: How about napping with me, Director? Izumi: I might not be able to fall asleep at night if I sleep now. Hisoka: I will keep you company if that happens. Izumi: Fufu. You would fall asleep first, Hisoka-san.
Hisoka: …Right, why did you come here? Do you need anything from me? Izumi: Yeah, I wanted to ask if you would like to join us in the garden, making and eating shaved ice together. Hisoka: … Hisoka: …Zzz. Izumi: (That’s an obvious answer…!) Izumi: I know it's hot outside, but shaved ice can refresh you, and it’s super fun to make them and eat them with everyone, don’t you think? Hisoka: …Zzz. Izumi: We have marshmallows for the toppings too! Hisoka: …I want. Izumi: (Nothing beats having marshmallows with you, huh.)
Sea Green Driftage / 2
Tumblr media
Tsumugi: I’m free in the morning, but… I won’t be able to help. I’m sorry. Tasuku: I have practice for a guest performance. Sorry. Tsuzuru: It’s okay. Thank you anyways. …I knew everyone would be busy. Izumi: What’s going on? Tsuzuru: Well, a college superior lacks people to help in a beach stall for a day, so he asked me. Tsuzuru: He wants three people for it. Banri and I will help, but we need someone else. Kumon: Banri serves as two. Isn’t that enough? Banri: What kind of logic is that? Hisoka: … Chikage: Did you try asking this guy? Hisoka: Chikage, shut up. Tsuzuru: It's next Sunday… are you available, Hisoka-san? Hisoka: …I’m free. Tsuzuru: Really~?! That’s good~! Hisoka: My fee is marshmallows for a week. Tsuzuru: How much are marshmallows for a week? Maybe I can make it with my part-time job pay… Chikage: Don’t be so immature. He’s a college student. Tsuzuru, I’ll cover the cost. Chikage: …That’s what you wanted, right? Hisoka: Yeah, I guess… Hisoka: I knew it. I should have stayed in the room. Homare: This is an excellent opportunity for you to go outside, Hisoka-kun! Izumi: And you can make lovely summer memories. Hisoka: …Sigh. Hisoka: …Ah. Itaru, I will send you a photo of the sea when I take one. Itaru: Somehow, we’re still collecting photos of the sea, huh. Itaru: How about uploading it to Inste to clear it this time? Good luck with the beach event mission. Hisoka: Roger.
Tumblr media
Tsuzuru: Your beer, lemon sour, and frankfurt are here. Thanks for the wait. Tsuzuru: The yakisoba will take a bit— Customer A: Hey, are you a college student? Tsuzuru: I am… Customer A: You have a pure and cute look~. When does your work end? Customer B: Why don’t you hang out with us after you finish? Tsuzuru: Ahmm… Banri: Sorry for the wait. Here is your yakisoba~. Customer A: Wow, a pretty handsome guy came! Customer B: Do you work here too? Let’s hang out when you’re done~. Banri: Why don’t you order a lot to help us finish earlier then? Tsuzuru: Wait, are you a host now…? You’re rejecting this, right…? Customer C: Hey, isn’t that boy stunning? Customer D: He has a fading aura… Is he a high schooler? No, a college student? Hisoka: …I’m already in my twenties. Customer C: When did he appear behind us?! Customer D: Neat! He’s like a ninja!
Sea Green Driftage / 3
Tumblr media
Tsuzuru: Phew… the shop is thriving. Banri: Man, my arm hurts. I fried too many yakisobas. Shop Owner: Thank you, everyone! We’ve almost run out of ingredients. Shop Owner: Since there are just a few dishes to serve, you’re free to leave earlier. Banri: Thanks. Tsuzuru: Thank you for your work. Banri: Since we’re here, let’s swim in the sea for a bit. Tsuzuru: Sure. How about you, Mikage-san? Hisoka: …I won’t go. I’m tired.
Tumblr media
Hisoka: Shaved ice is cold, but I still feel hot… Hisoka: I should have gone swimming… Izumi LIME: Good job on your work. Make sure to hydrate during your break. Hisoka LIME: I’m eating shaved ice. Does it count as hydrating myself? Hisoka: (Should I tell her we finished our work?) Boy: …It will melt if you don’t hurry up and eat it. Hisoka: …? Hisoka: (...He’s right. I didn’t notice when it started to melt.) Hisoka: (Sigh… Somehow, I suddenly felt hot again…) Hisoka: …Do you want to eat it? It’s almost melted, though. Boy: Are you sure?! Hisoka: Yes, here. Boy: Thank you! …It’s cold and tasty! Hisoka: Why are you alone? Boy: I came with my mom and sister, but they were crazy about collecting sea glass. Since I got bored, I went for shaved ice. Hisoka: Sea glass? Boy: It’s glass that was dropped in the sea Hisoka: Heh. Boy: Girls seem to like it because it’s shiny and pretty. Hisoka: (...Director might like it too.)
Tumblr media
Hisoka: (It’s colder now that the sun is going down…) Hisoka: (What a nice feeling…) Hisoka: (...I’m going to sleep for a bit.)
Hisoka: (The sound of the waves, the sea breeze smell, and the sand feeling…) Hisoka: (I don’t know why, but I think I feel nostalgic…) Hisoka: (It’s comfortable… though…) Hisoka: (Why do I feel like I have to wake up soon…?)
Hisoka: Ah… I forgot about the beach event mission. Hisoka: The photo… Hisoka: …
Tumblr media
Hisoka Inste: Mission clear? Hisoka: …Yawn. Maybe I should sleep a bit more— Banri: Ah, here he is. Tsuzuru: Please, wake up. It’s almost time to go back. Hisoka: Mhm. Tsuzuru: Thanks for your help today, you two. Banri: I’m glad to have come to the beach this year. Tsuzuru: It’s good when you put it like that. How was it for you, Mikage? Hisoka: …It was hot. Banri: Really? Only that? Tsuzuru: Ah, right. We have to tell Director we’re going back. Hisoka: …I’ll send her a LIME. Hisoka LIME: We’re going back. Izumi LIME: Good work today. I just saw your post on Inste. Izumi LIME: Your photo of the sea and the sea glass is lovely! Hisoka: Sea glass… Hisoka: (I took it just when I woke up. I didn’t notice it appeared on it…) Hisoka: (I will take some as a souvenir and then go back home. But she might prefer another color than green… Izumi LIME: The sea glass is so pretty. It has the same color as your eyes, Hisoka-san. Hisoka: My eyes color… Tsuzuru: What’s wrong, Mikage-san? Banri: We’re leaving you. Hisoka: …Wait. I’ll take these for Director.

Backstage Translation - Triangle of Happiness (Part 3)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Misumi: Si~gh.
Izumi: Hup. Pardon the intrusion.
Misumi: Director-san? And everyone else, too...
Kazunari: Good job at work today, Sumi.
Muku: Aren't you hungry?
Misumi: Onigiri!
Tenma: We don't know what happened, but you'll be unnecessarily sad if you're hungry.
Yuki: It's unusual for you to feel down, Misumi.
Kumon: Let's all eat onigiri together!
Misumi: ...Thank you.
Tumblr media
Izumi: ...Misumi-kun, did something happen at work earlier?
Misumi: Actually...
Tumblr media
Misumi: Thanks for waiting, can the next customers-
Female Customer B: Hey, I've been the only one looking at anything all day. A wedding is for two people, you know?
Male Customer B: I have been looking properly. But...
Misumi: ...?
Kiryu: Okay, please line up over here so I can take your photos.
Female Customer B: You don't actually have any interest in the bridal fair, do you?
Male Customer B: That's not it.
Misumi: Ah, aaah... uuum...
Kiryu: Hey, aren't your expressions a bit stiff? Please give me a smile~
Female Customer B: ...
Male Customer B: ...
*click*
Tumblr media
Misumi: I thought I was good at making people smile, but, I wasn't able to do anything...
Izumi: I see...
Muku: But it sounds like it was a big issue for those two, so other people can't really interject.
Tenma: Right. There was nothing to be done.
Misumi: Maybe, but...
Izumi: You're good at making other people smile, Misumi, but isn't the basis of that the fact that you like seeing everyone's smiles?
Look, you said the reason you like your circus job is because you fill the audience with smiles, and it's a place with lots of triangles, didn't you?
That's why I'm sure you'll be able to think of how to deal with it in your own way.
Kazunari: I think so too.
Kumon: You'll definitely do great next time!
Misumi: ...Yeah. I'll do my best next time!
Tenma: But don't give them Sankaku-kuns, okay.
Yuki: The Trianglian's definitely going to do that.
Misumi: I think it'd make everyone happy~
I know! Director-san, show me the photos from the wedding you went to before!
Izumi: Sure thing. It'll probably make good reference, right? Here's a picture the bride and groom took with all our friends...
Muku: Waah, the bride is so pretty!
Kumon: Everyone's smiling and looks happy!
Misumi: Ah! This triangle-
Tumblr media
Izumi: (I've come to check since I'm worried, but I wonder if Misumi's doing alright today?)
(Ah, looks like they're in the middle of a shoot with a family of two parents and a small girl.)
Girl: Noo! I don't wannaaaa!
Izumi: (The girl seems to be complaining, I wonder if it'll be alright...)
Misumi: Okay, I'll lend you a super valuable triangle.
Girl: A super valuable triangle?
Misumi: Yep, here you go.
Girl: A flag...?
Izumi: (That's one of the wedding flags everyone made after seeing them in my photo yesterday.)
Misumi: This is a triangle of happiness! It'll bring you happiness if you wave it~
Girl: Really?
Misumi: Yeah!
Girl: Yaay! Thank you!
Misumi: Yeah, that's a good smile!
Tumblr media
Izumi: (...The shooting ended without issue. Thank goodness.)
(What a relief, I should head home now.)
Misumi: Director-san?
Izumi: (Ah, he saw me...)
Option 1: I'm glad it seems to be going well!
Izumi: I'm glad it seems to be going well!
Misumi: Yeah! It's all thanks to you and the others!
This morning there was another couple arguing like yesterday, but I managed to make them smile with these~
These really are triangles of happiness~!
Izumi: Fufu, I see.
Option 2: Those three had nice smiles
Izumi: Those three had nice smiles.
Misumi: I was relieved to see them~
Izumi: Yeah. It made me happy to see, too.
Misumi: I'm glad we made these wedding flags!
Izumi: I'm sure the rest of Summer Troupe will be glad if you tell them.
Mizumi: Yeah! I'll report to them when I go home!
Izumi: Anyway, I just came to check how you were doing, so I'll be going home now.
Misumi: Let's take a picture since you're here!
Izumi: Eeh? But I haven't made a reservation for it, so...
Kiryu: You're the director of Fushimi-kun and Ikaruga-kun's theatre troupe, aren't you?
I'm the cameraman, Kiryu. Having Ikaruga helping this time has been a big help
I'm grateful to both of them, so I'd love to take your photo, if it's alright.
Izumi: Are you sure?
Kiryu: Of course.
Izumi: Well, if you insist...
Kiryu: I may as well take your photo with Ikaruga-kun too, take a seat on that sofa.
Misumi: Okaaa~y!
Izumi: (...Uwah, the set is so authentic, being in front of a professional camera has me all tense...)
Mizumi: Here, Director-san.
Izumi: Eh?
Misumi: A triangle of happiness! You'll be fine if you go "swish swish~" with it!
Izumi: ...Fufu, thank you.
(A triangle of happiness, huh... That's more than just what he's calling this flag-)
Kiryu: Okay, I'm about to take it~ 3, 2, 1-
Misumi: Triangle~!

Summer Troupe with an S/O who Shares the Same Hobby
A/N: For Kumon's, I say baseball but please know I mean baseball AND softball, I just didn't want to keep writing 'baseball/softball'. Hope that's okay! Hope y'all like it!
CW(s): none
❂ Tenma Sumeragi - Acting
Tenma thinks it’s really interesting that the two of you are into acting
He’ll definitely ask to practice scenes with you, although he seems to always get flustered when practicing romantic ones -so he just avoids eye contact because the moment he looks at you he dies inside-
If you do film acting, he’ll make sure to watch every movie you’re in no matter if you’re a lead or an extra. If you do theatre acting, he’ll try to attend as many of your performances as he can. If you just like acting but don’t really participate in anything, he’ll still support you and love practicing with you
If you need to practice for an audition, he’d love to help you out. No matter if it’s critiquing a performance or helping you practice dialogue, he’ll do anything to help you be successful
“Hey Tenma, can you help me?”
“Yeah, sure, what do you need help with?”
“I have an audition coming up and I need to work on this dialogue with someone.”
“Sure, I’ll gladly help.” You went over to sit next to Tenma and shared a script between the two of you. You couldn’t help but notice how his ears turned red from the proximity. The two of you went back and forth reading the dialogue, Tenma giving pointers at times on which emotion you should convey when, when to pause, and how to effectively give the best performance you could give. Even if he could be a bit redundant at times with his pointers, he did it out of love for you and hope for your success as he knows how amazing you are, and he wants everyone else to be able to know too.
If he ever has the opportunity to act with you, he’ll take it in a heartbeat. He’d absolutely love to work with you no matter what type of acting it is
Tenma is one of your main supporters in your acting career, and you can bet that he will stay by your side through all of it
❂ Yuki Rurikawa - Fashion and Sewing
Yuki loves that you’re good at fashion; I mean, he never has to worry about whether or not you look fashionable so he knows you two are always the cutest people in the room
If you ever make him clothing in his style he’ll feel incredibly honored that you took the time to make something for him that he’d actually wear
If either of you are struggling to pick an outfit for the day, the other will help and throw out ideas
Yuki was amazing at fashion. He knew it, you knew it, and most people knew it. No matter the type of fashion, he could easily put together a concise outfit in every style that would accentuate everyone’s so-called good side. So on days like today when you had no clue what to wear, Yuki was the person you went to. You hit the video call button next to his contact and waited for him to answer.
“Hey, what’s up?” Yuki answered the phone.
“Hey, Yuki! I’m not too sure what to wear today so I was wondering if you could help.”
“Sure, I’d love to. What are you thinking so far?” You set down your phone as he spoke and held up the outfits you were thinking about.
“Right top with left bottoms would look good. They’d look really good with that one pair of shoes you own too…”
If you enjoy sewing and are good at it, you can bet that Yuki is making you help him with costumes.
If you help with sewing the costumes, you’ll most likely befriend Taichi as well and the three of you may become quite close due to the amount of time you spend together
❂ Muku Sakisaka - (Shoujo) Manga
Muku is ecstatic that you also love manga, specifically shoujo
He’ll invite you to the shoujo manga club meetings he has with Sakyo and Kazunari so all of you can talk about that meetings manga
If you actually attended, he’d be so beyond himself with excitement that he’d be basically vibrating the whole time (Kazunari thinks it’s sweet how happy you make Muku)
He’ll give you so many recommendations that he won’t expect you to read them all, but if you do he’ll be so happy
He’d love it if you gave him recommendations too! Muku would be sure to read your favorite mangas so he can talk with you about them
“Hey Muku! Look at this new manga I found! I think you’d enjoy it!” you said, walking into his room.
“Oh, hey! What’s the manga called?” he perked up at the sound of your voice and began making his way over to you.
“It’s this manga called Wotakoi: Love is Hard for an Otaku?”
“Oh, I've heard of it!”
“Really? Would you like to read it? I have the whole set if you’d like to borrow it.”
“I’d love to! Oh my gosh, I’m so excited to read this!”
“I’ll bring it over tomorrow then if that’s alright.
He just feels so accepted with you since you have the same interest in manga and he feels like he can be his full authentic self with you, just as he can be with his troupe
❂ Misumi Ikaruga - Triangles
Misumi is ecstatic to find someone with the same passion for triangles as him
He definitely calls you his triangle, and it makes him happy beyond belief you understand how much that means to him personally as you also love triangles
If you call him your triangle, he will positively melt on the spot and cover you in small kisses
Triangle hunting dates! The two of you will most definitely go out together to search for the shape
Be ready to be gifted so many triangle things- you can hardly believe how many items he finds especially to gift you but that’s Misumi for you
“I brought you a gift!” Misumi said one day as he walked into your room.
“Really?” you said, excited.
“Mhm! Close your eyes and put your hands out.” You complied with Misumi’s orders as you buzzed with anticipation. You felt a light object be placed into your hands as you heard Misumi shuffle closer to you. “You can open your eyes now.” When you did, you spotted a triangle shaped charm with a heart on the inside in your palms. You reflexively clenched your hands and held the charm to your heart. “Do you like it?” he asked. You could almost hear a hint of nervousness in his voice.
“Misumi, I love it.” a smile broke out onto his face as he heard you say that.
“Really!? That makes me so happy!” he said as he pulled you into a hug.
The rest of the company find it so odd that Misumi is dating someone with the same love of triangles as him, but at the very least the find it cute and mildly entertaining
❂ Kazunari Miyoshi - Painting
Kazunari thinks it’s so cool that you like painting as much as him!
Get ready for painting dates where the two of you just talk about everything and nothing while working on your own projects
Do you know that old social media trend where people would paint on their significant other’s back? Yeah, he’d definitely love for the two of you to do that and take a picture so he can post it on Instablam
If he’s ever stuck on a project, he’ll ask you for help
You walked into Kazunari’s room and saw his head on his desk. Before you approached your boyfriend you waved to Muku who gladly said hello.
“He’s struggling.” Muku said as he climbed down his ladder and left the room. You just nodded in acknowledgement, grabbed a chair, and went to sit next to Kazunari. “I need help.” he whined, placing his head on your shoulder in an attempt to get your attention.
You placed a kiss on his cheek and then spoke, “what is it?”
“I can’t think of an idea for the next play’s poster.
“Okay, what’s the play about?” He explained the entirety of the plot in one fell swoop, and in the back of your mind you couldn’t help but applaud Tsuzuru at his creativity.
“Okay, so I was thinking…”
If you’re ever stuck on a project, he will also always help!
If you ever need any critique he’d love to go over your works with you, and he’d also love to receive constructive criticism when he asks for it
He just loves dating someone with the same passion for art he does since you can understand where he’s coming from a bit better when it comes to talking about it
❂ Kumon Hyodo - Baseball
Although Kumon doesn’t play baseball anymore, he still loves the fact you enjoy the sport as much as he does
If you play, he’ll definitely practice with you and attend any games he can. He’s definitely one of the loudest on the sidelines but he can’t help it! He’s so proud of you
Kumon cheered as you went up to bat. He wanted to make sure you could hear that he was there watching and supporting you. He mentally wished you good luck, but in his heart he knew you didn’t need it as the two of you had been practicing very hard. He watched as you went up to bat and he sat with baited breath and he watched as you did amazingly.
After the game he went to greet you and immediately pulled you into a hug.
“Kumon, I’m sweaty!” you protested, but the entire time you were laughing and didn’t make any move to push him away.
If you don’t play but only watch baseball, he’s still excited to have someone to talk baseball about to someone/watch baseball with
He’ll definitely invite you to any professional baseball games he gets tickets for
He absolutely loves enjoying his favorite sport with you and he hopes that you do as well

Tumblr media Tumblr media
*T/N: italicized lines are in english, quotes are texts
Tenma: …..I feel like someone’s looking at me again.
Izumi: Hmm, maybe there really are Japanese fans following us…?
Misumi: Ah! A triangle light!
Kazunari: It totally is! Sumi, take a pic with it!
Misumi: Okay! Triangle pose~!
Passerby A: Oh!? A Japanese Ninja!?
Passerby B: Amazing!
Kumon: Sumi-san’s triangle pose is awesome! So cool!
Muku: The people around us think he’s a ninja…!
Yuki: Are we being mistaken for street performers?
Kazunari: Okay, say cheese! Click!
Kazunari: Ooo~, what ultra cool vibes! I’ve gotta post this to Inste!
Kazunari: Huh? There’s a LIME message from Itarun.
Itaru: “Did the Summer Troupe and Director go to Times Square today?”
Kazunari: "Yep we did!"
Itaru: “Sweet. I have a small favor to ask.”
Tenma: Itaru-san wants us to do him a favor?
Kazunari: He wants us to buy something at this hobby shop!
Izumi: I think that’s the same store I went to with Spring Troupe the other day.*
Izumi: It was pretty interesting, it had lots of famous movie and video game character goods.
Muku: There’s really a shop like that…!
Kumon: Heh~! That sounds fun, let’s go!
Yuki: It might have some different designs than Japan, I could maybe use something for costume inspiration.
Kazunari: Alright, let’s go together!
Misumi: GO~!
Tenma: Jeez, they already forgot about the Statue of Liberty…
Tumblr media
Muku: Uwaa~, how amazing! There’s so many things here!
Kumon: So awesome! They’ve got a bunch of movie characters, and huge figures!
Izumi: (Everyone in Spring Troupe seemed to enjoy this place, but it seems like Summer Troupe is pretty crazy about it too.)
Misumi: Ah! It’s Tenma!
Izumi: Eh?
Misumi: Look, this--!
Kazunari: Uwa! This figure seriously looks just like Tenten!
Yuki: Sparkle·Sunshine? ...Lame.
Tenma: Oi, I heard that.
Kazunari: I see~, he’s a character from a superhero series.
Kazunari: It’s a pretty low budget production, but it’s got a cult following! The director’s name is….. Harold Lance.
???: Did you just call me?
Muku: Huh?
Misumi: Who~?
Harold: Hello, thank you for your interest in my characters.
Kazunari: AAH!? His face is… the exact same as the photo! This guy’s Harold!?
Izumi: EH!?
Kumon: Then this is the guy who made the Sparkle·Sunshine movie!?
Muku: A-Amazing…! I can’t believe the man himself is in this store.
Yuki: Does he usually hang out in places like this?
Harold: By the way, are you interested in doing a movie?
Tenma: ?
Kazunari: Wait, Tenten! I think he’s offering you a movie gig!?
Tenma: Oh, it’s a movie gig.
Tenma: ….HAH!?
Harold: Actually, I’m shooting the spin-off movie, but the actor who played Sparkle was injured. I’m looking for a replacement.
Harold: When I saw you earlier, I was shocked. Your image is perfect for the role. I really wanted to ask you to replace him, so I’ve been following you.
Kazunari: I didn’t really catch the details, but basically he’s been following us since he saw Tenten because he wants him to be the replacement!
Yuki: So he’s been stalking us.
Izumi: Then that feeling Tenma-kun got must’ve been the director watching him.
Tenma: I can’t, I might not be known in America, but I still belong to my agency...
Harold: I know you! Weren’t you in one of Shirasawa’s movies?*
Kazunari: You’ve seen some of Tenten’s movies?
Tenma: He knows who I am?
Harold: I’m a Japan fanatic, so I watch lots of Japanese films. I’ve known you were a Japanese actor since the start.
Harold: The movie I’m shooting now focuses on a different character, so Sparkle only plays a small part. There’s only three lines.
Harold: You’re just so much like Sparkle, I really want you to be the replacement! Is that so wrong?
Izumi: (It’s an unreasonable request but...his enthusiasm is really contagious.)
Izumi: Tenma-kun, what are you going to do?
Tenma: ….OK. I understand, I’ll do it.
Harold: Really!?
Tenma: I never thought I’d be offered a gig in a foreign place like this, but this is also a step towards my future.
Kumon: As expected of Tenma-san!
Misumi: Tenma’s so cool~!
Izumi: (I’ll admit, I’m surprised that a replacement role was born here, but Tenma-kun seems motivated, so I’m sure this will be a good experience.)
Tenma: But, I need my agency’s permission, so please hang on a moment so I can contact them.
-
Izumi: --So, it was allowed on the condition that shoot at an angle where you can’t make out Tenma-kun’s face, and his name isn’t included.
Tenma: Right.
Harold: Really, thank you so much! I’m so happy!
 Muku: Good job, Tenma-kun!
Kazunari: To go on a trip and be casted as a replacement, it’s fate! I’m getting emotional!
Yuki: That’s cool and all but… will his lines be okay?
Kumon: Ah….! Now that I think about it, the lines will be in English won’t they? 
Misumi: English pronunciation is hard….~.
Harold: We need to hurry to arrange the shoot. Meet me at the location in one hour, you’ll need to drive. 
Muku: Did he say in one hour...?
Kazunari: Yeah. Does that mean he only has one hour to perfect his lines…?
Izumi: Tenma-kun, is that okay…?
Tenma: Hmph, I’ve made my decision, it’s fine.

A3! Event: Trump the Phantom Thief Epilogue: Full Speed Ahead Translation
Now that Trump the Phantom Thief play had completely wrapped, Muku focused on practicing for his relay race.
Tumblr media
Izumi: Good job on the play, guys! Cheers!
Muku: Good work, everyone!
Juza: Good work.
Azami: Man, we sure had a lot of people this time.
Banri: Especially on the last day.
Kazunari: Right, right~! Never would have thought real thieves would appear~!
Yuki: It's my first time receiving a letter of appreciation from the police.
Izumi: We even made it to the news. Did you see the "Bravo, Theater Man!" one?
Sakyo: It was also trending on social media. This is such a great promotion for us.
Kumon: Man, so jelly~! I wanted to catch the thieves with you guys!
Misumi: I also wanted to run with Muku~!
Banri: The heck, dude? If you want to run with him, you can do it anytime.
Izumi: (Now that we've done the mixed plays, our popularity has pretty much increased compared to before…)
(I guess that means we took a step closer towards the Fleur Award.)
Juza: Muku, you still have your race next, right? How's your practice going?
Muku: I'm doing really great. While I'm not as fast I used to be in the past, I'm slowly catching up.
I have a lot of fun joining the club activities after a long time. Please come and watch the race, guys. I'm going to do my very best.
Juza: Yea. Looking forward to that.
Tumblr media
Muku: ...Haah. Haah.
Three more trees--.
Kumon: Hey, Muku.
Juza: We brought some snacks.
Muku: Oh, you came!
Juza: Are you doing okay? You go practicing even on your day off.
Kumon: You can take it easy.
Muku: Thanks for the concern but I'm doing okay. My teammates have come up with an efficient training menu.
Kumon: Oh, okay.
Juza: Looks like you're getting along well with your fellow club members.
Muku: Yep. They're supporting me a lot.
I'll run around three more trees and take a break.
Kumon: Good luck!
...He looks like he's having fun.
Juza: Damn right. I'm glad he decided not to give up on track and field.
Kumon: Yeah.
Tumblr media
Muku: (Today is finally the day of the tournament…)
Juza: Muku. Good luck today.
Muku: ...Thank you. I'll be going, then!
Tumblr media
Kazunari: Oh. I see Mukkun.
Misumi: Heeeey, Muku~! Good luck~!
Kumon: He looked this way!
Yuki: Did he notice us?
Tenma: That aside, what a crowd.
Juza: I guess it's only to be expected since today is the final race.
Banri: Though we kinda stand out since we're the only group of men here.
Sakyo: Look who's talking.
Kazunari: Guys, look! Mukkun is the last runner!
Announcer: "First Lane, St. Flora High School--."
Izumi: I'm getting nervous just by watching.
Tumblr media
Muku: …
(I've got to show the result of my practice…)
(For Juchan and the others who always support me, and for my fellow club members who willingly welcomed me back.)
(And for the past me who had to quit track and field because of my injury.)
(I will run at full speed so that I will have no regrets later on…)
...Okay!
*gun sounds*
Muku: --.
Spectator A: Whoaa! Go, go~!
Spectator B: Do your best~!
Muku: (First runner…second runner… Good. The pace is great. Now the baton is in the third runner's hand--.)
Track and Field Club Member A: Sakisaka!
Muku: Yeah!
--.
Juza: Muku, run!
Muku: (Watch me, Juchan--.)
--.
Announcer: First place, St. Flora High School!!
*applause*
Muku: I did it…!
Track and Field Club Member A: Great job, Sakisaka!
Track and Field Club Member B: We won!
Muku: Yes!
Kumon: Hooray!
Misumi: You're amazing, Muku!
Kazunari: Grats, Mukkun~!
Juza: You did it, Muku.
Tumblr media
Track and Field Club Member A: Thanks for coming back, Sakisaka. It's thanks to you that we could win today's race.
Muku: I should be the one thanking you for giving me the chance to run again.
I'm so happy I got to practice with you all and won the tournament.
I can finally get rid of the regrets I felt that time.
*phone notification sounds*
Muku: ?
Juza: [I'll take you home if you're still there.]
Track and Field Club Member A: Sakisaka, you're gonna ride the train too, right?
Muku: Ah, no. I'll take this road. Good bye, guys.
Track and Field Club Member A: Bye bye!
Tumblr media
Muku: Juchan!
Juza: Hey.
Muku: Sorry for making you wait. Where are the others?
Juza: I'm the only one here. They all said you were awesome and praised you a lot.
Muku: Ehehe.
Juza: I also thought you were so cool when I watched you run at full speed.
Muku: Thanks for watching until the end, Juchan.
I heard your voice when I was running.
Remember when I confronted the thieves at the cruise? I've gained strength because of your voice.
Your support is my driving force, Juchan.
Juza: You give me too much credit.
Muku: Remember when I just started track and field, you wished me good luck?
Back then, I couldn't talk to you like I do now since you seemed hard to approach, and that comment might not be a deal to you. But…
Your words gave me so much strength. I'd never thought you'd cheer me like that.
Juza: ...Did something like that happen?
Muku: It's such a precious event to me.
Juza: Well, I'm glad it could give you strength.
Let's go home. I heard Omi-san and Guy-san prepare something to celebrate your victory.
Muku: Seriously!?
Juza: By the way, the dessert will be special chocolate parfaits.
Muku: Wow! Can't wait to eat that!
Juza: Same.

Summer Troupe headcanons for @timeskip​
General:
This one isn’t really a headcanon, but I really like the idea of Summer Troupe going camping, sitting around a bonfire and all singing “Orange Heart” while Kazu plays the guitar!
I really like the idea that Yuki’s weak point is painting nails. He won’t admit it, but there’s a reason he never paints them himself, and the reason isn’t “It’s too much of a bother.”
But on the contrary, Kazunari is great at it! His hands are super stable thanks to years of art experience so he can do high quality work in very short time! He finds it fun too, so he often does others’ nails too if anyone wants him to. Misumi always asks for triangular patterns and Kazu is more than happy to oblige!
Muku has a growth spurt somewhere after year 3! Nobody notices it, since they see him everyday, until one day Yuki, while taking measurements, is like “Huh... Muku really is 183 cm tall, isn’t he..?” and everyone freaks out.
Tenma and Kazunari are the most procrastinating duo you will meet. They kind of bond over it; there are night where you will find them in the living room at 3AM desperately trying to finish assignments that were due last week, both just barely holding back tears
Misumi once proposed to Kazunari with a traffic cone, stating that he really needed to be Misumi Miyoshi to fully express his love for triangles (”Miyoshi” is written as 三好, with 三 (み or さん) meaning “three” and 好 (よし or す) meaning “to be fond of / to love”). Kazunari had to explain to him, while holding back laughter, that it’s not how it works.
Misumi loves wearing skirts (especially A-line and long flowy ones) because they’re triangular!
Kumon can’t play any instruments, but he actually has perfect pitch! He’s very good at singing just like his brother too! (Would most likely beat Banri if they went to karaoke together)
Kumon also has very bad memory when it comes to school stuff (his worst subject is history because of all the dates, which he feels bad about, because Juza is good at it) but he easily remembers stuff he’s passionate about
Everyone in the Summer Troupe loves games! They hold a game night at least once a month when they have time.
Tenma is terrible at Mahjong and tabletops, but surprisingly good at various card games
Yuki excels at Poker; always has everyone wrapped around his finger, but he has bad luck when it comes to board games with dice
Muku is, to everyone’s surprise, great (and absolutely ruthless) at Uno, but terrible at Monopoly; he always breaks under peer pressure and accepts all the deals, even if they’re bad on his end
Misumi somehow always wins at Ludo; he has some insane luck and always rolls the exact number he needs. Terrible at Scrabble though
Kazunari is great at Monopoly, Mahjong and Scrabble (everyone is surprised at his vast vocabulary, since he always talks in slang). Bad at Uno; never wants to +4 anyone so he keeps drawing
Kumon is a beast at Monopoly (who would have known he’s that good at playing people into his deals?) and surprisingly good at Hanafuda. Terrible at Poker; he’s too expressive for his own good
LGBT+:
I am well aware how unlikely it is for such a large group of random people to all be LGBT+, but try and tell me any theater kid would ever be straight, I’ll wait.
Tenma never got to explore much of his identity prior to meeting everyone at Mankai. He always thought of himself as a straight dude and didn’t even consider a possibility of being anything else. He starts questioning himself when he sees how different people can be even though they all have similar passion. He doesn’t label himself anything; he’s still learning about what he really feels, but he also deals with a lot of internalized homophobia, which others help him learn to get over.
Yuki is nonbinary! Doesn’t care for gender; thought he might be trans until he learnt binary isn’t the only option. He knows there’s no possibility for him to actually “pass” in society, so he’s accepted he’s gonna be misgendered a lot everyday; he’s fine with being seen as a guy, but when people assume he’s a girl it actually makes him uncomfortable. He’s only out to a handful of people at Mankai (namely: Muku, Izumi, and Azuma) but he doesn’t hide it, he just doesn’t tell anyone.
Muku is transgender! He knew since late childhood (10-12yo); his family was extremely supportive of him (which is still quite rare in Japan) and thus he was able to go on blockers and later start HRT! He passes very well, but is still insecure because of dysphoria; he looks up to Yuki who can still be very manly and masculine despite dressing in a feminine fashion. He comes out to the rest of Summer Troupe around Act 6 and everyone is accepting (Tenma doesn’t quite get it at first but educates himself later on)!
Misumi doesn’t use labels but he’s queer! Sees no difference between different genders; he feels the same way about all of them! Doesn’t have any strong connection to his gender identity either!
Kazunari is pansexual! He knew he was LGBT since around middle school but also dealt with a lot of internalized homophobia at first (likes of “Oh, I’m gay but I’m not like those gays”) but worked hard to figure it out and by high school he grew to be much more accepting; meeting many different people and talking to them definitely helped a lot.
Kumon is homosexual! Never showed any attraction for anyone for entirety of his childhood and early teens, but nobody thought much of it and certainly he didn’t notice it either; he just had the most important things on his mind and finding a girlfriend sure wasn’t one of them. He first learns of his orientation when he suddenly develops a crush on a boy on his first year of high school! To say he panics about it would be an understatement; he doesn’t know what to do, he feels like he should tell someone but he knows it’s foolish to assume anyone would be accepting of him. He goes to the only LGBT person he can think of: Muku! Muku of course reassures him it’s okay and helps him muster up enough courage to come out to at least his brother; something he’d been dreading the most. But of course, after at least an hour of going around the topic in circles, he finally comes out to Juza, who’s, although awkward, very supportive. You know my boy ends up crying for at least another hour.

Event | 5th Anniversary: The Way Back Home | EP 2: The Way Back Home Under the Starry Sky
Tumblr media
*Contains spoilers for Act 12 - eternal moment*
Izumi: --Ah, it’s already this late, huh?
Sakyo: I think it’s time to call it a night.
Sakuya: Well then, one last thing-- We have something for you, Director.
Izumi: ?
Tsumugi: Here’s a share of our memories.
Izumi: An album?
Izumi: Uwaah…! The sky is so full of stars! It’s so pretty!
Tsumugi: Actually, before we went to our training camps, we all discussed this together.
Banri: You couldn’t come with us this time, but we’ve all made it this far because of you. You’ve always been by our sides, looking at the same view as us, Director-chan.
Tenma: Each of us decided to take our favorite pictures from our trips and give it to you as a gift.
Tumblr media
Sakuya: But when we brought them together, they were all just pictures of the starry sky…
Banri: It was kinda a nice coincidence.
Tenma: Even though we were in different places, we were all under the same sky, looking up at the stars in the exact same way.
Tsumugi: We were happy to see that we were still connected even when separated, so we decided to use it as it was.
Sakuya: Director, as always, thank you so much!
Tenma: We’ve got twenty-four people in MANKAI Company, but we’re nothing without you, Director.
Banri: I think the reason we can always try new things is because you’re always watchin’ us, Director-chan.
Tsumugi: Let’s continue to put on the greatest plays together.
Izumi: --I’m the one who should be thanking all of you.
Izumi: Today, I once again realized that MANKAI Company is loved and supported by so many people.
Izumi: We all can’t help but call what happened here a miracle, and it’s a sign that we’ll keep on walking together even while worrying and lost.
Izumi: It’s thanks to all of you that I’m able to see so many wonderful views like this. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Izumi: …But things aren’t over just yet. There’s still views we haven’t seen.
Izumi: Let’s all look beyond just this place where we’re standing now.
Tumblr media
Sakuya: Yeah!
· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·
Azuma: It’s a bit cold out.
Guy: It’s perfect for sobering everyone up a bit.
Misumi: Uwaaaah!
Izumi: ?
Tumblr media
Misumi: Look, the stars!
Izumi: --.
Tenma: It’s rare to see so many stars out around here.
Kumon: It’s like we brought the stars with us!
Citron: The stars are celebrating our award and the success of today’s performance!
Muku: Waah, it’s so romantic!
Yuki: Cold…
Tasuku: It’s probably because it’s been raining a lot lately and there hasn’t been a lot of daylight.
Hisoka: You’re being too logical…
Homare: That’s our dear Tasuku-kun.
Tsumugi: But they really are pretty.
Kazunari: With the stars like this, maybe we’ll even see a shooting star?
Sakyo: That’d be too easy.
Citron: We just need to think of wishes, just in case!
Taichi: Let’s chant three times, the shorter the better!
Hisoka: Marshmallows, marshmallows, marshmallows
Manager: Money, money, money!
Tumblr media
Tsuzuru: You’re all hopeless.
Izumi: Wish… wishes, huh…?
Izumi: (I guess there’s that, but…)
Misumi: Ah-- a shooting star!
Izumi: I hope we can see many more beautiful views just like this starry sky--.
Izumi: …
Masumi: Stare…
Izumi: W-What?
Tumblr media
Masumi: I was just wondering what you wished for.
Azami: You were wishing so seriously.
Itaru: Was it something with curry?
Chikage: Maybe she wished for new spices.
Hisoka: That’s probably what you wished for, Chikage.
Izumi: It’s a secret.
Izumi: Alright, let’s go home!

A3! Hyodo Kumon - Translation [SSR] Jump in! Parkour! (3/3)
Tumblr media
*Please read disclaimer on blog; default name set as Izumi
---
Kazunari: Okie dokes~. But it won’t be with me today…
*pulls Kumon over*
Kumon: EH, ME!?
Tumblr media
Rude guy from the crowd: …Have you been playing this game a lot too?
Kumon: Nope, not at all!
Rude guy from the crowd: Hmmm… Fine by me. I’ll have a match with you this time
Kumon: If I win, you’ll stop cutting in line!
Rude guy from the crowd: You have my word. If you’d like, I’ll give you all the play coins I have on me too.
Kumon: Huh, are you sure!?
Rude guy from the crowd: In exchange! If I win, then that girlie will give back my Kareko-chan that she stole!
Izumi: Wait, now!? That was so long ago…
Rude guy from the crowd: If only you guys weren’t there, then that Kareko-chan would’ve been mine…
Izumi: (This guy wanted Kareko-chan that much…!) I-I won’t hand over my Kareko-chan!
Kumon: I’ll protect Director’s Kareko-chan for sure!
-pause-
Kumon: …Err, I went with the flow and said that. But what if I don’t win~!
Tumblr media
Rude guy from the crowd: What’s this? Did you come all the way here to whine? Fine, I’ll let you choose the song then.
Kumon: Urghh, he’s making fun of me…
Yuki: It’s fine. Pick a song you’re good at.
Misumi: All you gotta do is win~!
Kumon: You’re right. Okay… Ah, I’m choosing this song!
Muku: That’s the song in the dance video you posted before this!
Kumon: Yep. This might be make or break for me…! Let’s do this!
DDD: “Highest difficulty, here we go~ ☆ Three, two, one, start”
Rude guy from the crowd: Yo, hah….
Yuki: …Oh, that guy’s got moves.
Tumblr media
Izumi: Come to think of it, that guy also cleared it with no misses last time…
Misumi: But look! Kumon isn’t missing at all either~.
Kumon: This dance is the same as the video! My body’s moving naturally in sync to the music…!
*dances around*
Kumon: Woof, woof, woof ♪ there!
Tumblr media
Tenma: Oi, I think Kumon’s getting more “perfects” than his opponent.
Kazunari: Those are worth more points than “nice”! You’re on a roll, Kumopi~!
Kumon: Like this~… FINISH!
Muku: Amazing, Kyu-chan! You were so cool!
DDD: “Here are the results ☆ The winner is… by a very slim margin: Player 2!”
Kumon: I-I WON!
Tumblr media
Rude guy from the crowd: I can’t believe this…
Guest A: That dancer on the right was super cute~!
Guest B: He was just like a pro!
Rude guy from the crowd: …D-damn it. I’ll remember this!
Misumi: Hm? Where are the coins you promised~?
Rude guy from the crowd: I got it. I’ll just leave them here! Take them!
*runs away*
Muku: Ah, he left…
Izumi: Thanks, Kumon-kun! Kareko-chan is thrilled too!
Kumon: Ehehe, I’m glad I was able to protect your Kareko-chan~.
Tenma: A huge crowd formed too. You accomplished your mission of wanting people watch you dance.
Tumblr media
Kumon: Yeah, I had so much fun!
-pause-
Izumi: (After that, we played countless times with the coins we got. It looked like everyone had a blast. Fufu.)
*knock, knock*
Kumon: You have a minute, Director?
Izumi: Come in.
*door opens*
Kumon: I’m coming in.
Tumblr media
Izumi: You worked hard today. I was actually just remembering what happened during the day.
Kumon: Oh, really. What I wanna talk about is related to dance, so perfect timing! So you see, I found a dance that I wanna dance with you, Director!
Izumi: Eh, a dance?
Kumon: Mhm! It’s Kareko-chan’s curry dance!
Izumi: C-curry dance!?
Kumon: Have a look at this video!
Izumi: Oh my, Kareko-chan really is dancing… Ah, she’s pretending to scoop curry for this move.
Kumon: Remember when I said I felt like I saw Kareko-chan somewhere before? It was this dance video! I heard Kareko-chan’s name a lot today, so it came back to me. I thought I’d let you know. This one’s super simple, so you can do it too. Let’s dance together!
Izumi: Well…
Option 1: “It looks hard”
Izumi: This curry dance might not be as hard as the previous Woof Woof one, but it looks hard in its own way.
Kumon: Don’t worry! I’ll teach you, so give it a shot! First, right, left, one-two ♪ Then grab a spoon!
Izumi: L-like this?
Kumon: Place your hand more over here. At this angle…
Izumi: Am I doing it right?
Kumon: You got it! See, you’re a natural at this!
Izumi: Fufu, thanks.
Option 2: “I haven’t done one before”
Izumi: I haven’t done a dance challenge video before in the first place…
Kumon: Don’t even worry! It’s fine even if you don’t do it particularly well. Little kids, grandpas and grandmas—everyone’s having fun dancing. So it’s fine!
Izumi: Having fun, huh…
Kumon: Yeah!
Kumon: C’mon, you feel like you can do it, don’t you? Let’s film a curry dance video together!
Tumblr media
Izumi: Alright, you win. I’ll take a stab at it! But don’t post it to the website, alright…?
Kumon: Okay! …Then, this dance video is a secret just between the two of us!
Izumi: (Urgh, it’s a bit embarrassing hearing him say that again...) That being said, I’ll be counting on you.
Kumon: Alriiight, let’s film a totally amazing video! Ready, set—.

The April Fools
I spent too much time on this.
Word count- 2177
Tsuzuru says pog, also some swearing
It had started out a normal day. Well, relatively normal, as it was April fools day and of course, pranks were on the rise.
Izumi stood in the kitchen, drinking coffee, hoping that mischief would wait a little while longer.
She could hear the door open and the person make their way to the kitchen. Izumi doesn’t look up though, she could hardly even keep her eyes open. The night before she helped at a nearby theater, which went longer than expected.
“Good morning, Director.”
“Morning…”
“Are you okay? You seem tired.”
“I had a long night last night.” She rubbed her eyes. Looking up she saw that she was talking to… “Kazunari?”
“Yeah?” He looked a little confused.
She thought for a moment. “Oh I get it.”
“Get what?”
“The joke. It’s funny, you got me.”
“I’m not joking though?”
“Come on, the bit’s over.”
“What bit?” He grew exasperated.
Before the back and forth could continue, Masumi entered the kitchen.
“Izumi, he’s acting weird.”
“Who?”
“Tsuzuru. He’s even more annoying.”
As if on cue, Tsuzuru stepped in.
“Hey, Zumi!”
Kazunari sighed. “Good morning, Minagi.”
Masumi looked between the two. 
Izumi began laughing, catching all three of them off guard.
“Oh, okay. That was good. Great dedication.”
“She’s doing it again…” Kazunari said.
“I’m not really getting it…”
“Come on, Usu,” Tsuzuru gave him a light punch on the arm. “She’s having a good time. That’s pogs, right?”
“Stop calling me that.”
“It’s pogs.” He said quietly.
“What’s with all the noise in here?!” Sakyo yelled.
“I’m not entirely sure.” Kazunari answered.
“Kazunari and Tsuzuru are giving a great April fools performance.”
“Huh? I haven’t even gotten to my jokes yet.” Tsuzuru said.
“It has been fun, boys, but you’re not tricking me.” She walked out of the room, still laughing.
“Right, well, if you’re going to be pranking or whatever, do it quietly.”
“Got it, Saki!” Tsuzuru gave double finger gun.
“... what?”
“I’ll be quiet. No cap.” He gave a goofy grin
“What does that mean?”
“It means he’s not lying.” Kazunari translated. “You could’ve just said that.”
“Come on, Kinari-iro.”
Sakyo sighed and left, feeling the oncoming migraine.
Citron and Sakuya passed him, talking about something or another.
“Good morning, guys!” Sakuya greeted.
“Hello! Sweep well?”
“Sleep, Citron.” Kazunari corrected.
“Good morning, Sakun! Hey Kankitsu, do you think we could do a Citrun act today?”
“That would be fun, yes!”
“Stop encouraging him.” Masumi said.
“Well, this has been weird, but I’ve got homework to do.” Kazunari excused himself from the kitchen.
“Seeya, Kinari-iro!”
Citron pulled the other two to the side. “Somethings going on with them.”
“What gave you that idea?”
“What do you think’s going on?”
“Izumi said that it’s just a prank.”
“What’re you guys talking about?” Chikage startled the three of them.
“Tsuzuru’s been more annoying than usual.”
They looked over at him, taking selfies.
“He does seem to be acting strangely.”
“He didn’t even correct me when I messed up earlier.”
“Yeah, Kazunari did.”
“Kage!” Tsuzuru walked up to him and gave him a strong pat on the back. “Didn’t even see you come in! What’s up?”
“Oh, nothing much. Itaru said he wanted to see you.”
“Really? What for?”
“Something about that isekai harem what's-it you guys talked about during the KotR play, I think.”
Tsuzuru laughed. “Right, that. Brb!”
“He did?” Sakuya asked.
“No, it would just be a little hard to talk about him behind his back if he’s in the room. So did he hit his head or something?”
“I don’t think so. He just started saying weird things when he woke up.” Masumi looked at the door leading out to the dorms. “Izumi said it’s a prank,”
“I’m not sure, though,” Sakuya interjected. “He was keeping it up even when we weren’t looking.”
“Maybe it’s a long con.” Chikage suggested.
“Tsuzuru can’t keep a straight face on something like this to save his life.” Masumi said. “Have you seen him off-stage?”
Chikage thought for a moment. “I have an idea.”
~~~
Kazunari had just left the kitchen and headed straight up to his room.
“Good morning, Kazunari.” Muku greeted.
“Good morning, Muku.”
“W-what?”
“I said good morning.”
“Are you mad at me? Did I upset you? I’m sorry if I did.”
“What? No, I’m not mad at all, let alone at you.”
“A pathetic piece of dirt like me doesn’t have the right to put emotional strain on anyone!”
“Whoa, Muku, calm down.” He placed his hand on the quivering boy’s shoulder. “I’m not mad, why would you think that?”
“Because you always call me Mukkun, and I don’t know why you’d stop unless you’re mad at me!”
“What?”
“I’m sorry, I’ll just go so I don’t upset you with my crummy presence.” He quickly left the room, Kazunari watched.
“People are acting so weird today.”
Muku ran out to the courtyard and bumped into Kumon and Juza.
“Muku, what happened?!” Kumon asked as Juza rubbed his back.
“K-kazunari he-” He can hardly form a sentence.
“Kazunari?”
“Did he hurt you?” Juza asked, looking a little angry.
“No, no… it’s my fault. He’s mad at me!”
“What for?”
“I don’t know…”
“How do you know it’s your fault?”
“Why wouldn’t it be my fault?”
“Hey, Uku, what’s wrong?” Tsuzuru knelt down to the crying boy.
“Kazunari’s mad at me…”
“I’m sure he’s not mad at you, he may just be having an… off day.”
“Wait Tsuzuru, what was that?” Kumon asked.
“He’s having an off day...?”
“No, before that, what’d you call Muku?”
“Uku.” He said with a smile.
Muku’s tears grew in intensity. “It’s really cute. Thank you.”
Tsuzuru didn’t entirely understand, but he sounded happier, so he didn’t say anything.
“How ‘bout we get something to eat.” Juza suggested.
Muku nodded and the three of them stood up and slowly walked to the kitchen, comforting Muku the whole time.
Tsuzuru got up and knocked on Itaru’s door.
“I’m busy!” He yelled. A few minutes passed before anything else. “Damn.” He opened the door. “What is it?”
“Kage said you wanted to talk to me.”
“Ka… what?”
“Yeah, about the script you wanted.”
“Well, I didn’t.”
“Oh.”
“Is that all?”
“Yeah.”
“Well then,” Itaru closed the door.
“Seeya, Takai!”
After a moment, Itaru opened the door. “What?”
“I said seeya! Maybe you and Kumo need to get your hearing checked.”
“... give me a minute.”
Itaru looked up to the sky.
“What’re you doing?”
“I’m trying to see if there’s an apocalypse.”
“No, but it has been a little strange today.”
“You’re telling me.” He thought for a moment. “I see what’s happening here.”
“What?”
“You’re fucking with me.”
“No, I-”
“It’s April first. You’re just messing with me. Good job, I will be getting back at you though.”
“Zumi said something like that, too. Is this some big prank you guys orchestrated and me and Kinari-iro are the targets?”
Itaru took in a deep breath.
“Fuck it.” Itaru marched to the kitchen, where he saw the rest of the spring troupe, Muku, Kumon, and Juza.
“Hello, Itaru.” Chikage greeted. “I take it you’ve spoken with Tsuzuru?”
“Yeah, what the hell’s up with him?”
“We aren’t sure yet.” Sakuya said.
“He and Kazunari are acting wired.”
“Weird.” Masumi corrected.
“Kazunari?”
“Yeah,”
Itaru paused, as he had a realization.
“Personality swap.”
“What?”
“They swapped personalities or whatever.”
“So that’s why Tsuzuru’s giving everyone nicknames?” Chikage asked
“And Kazunari has been using our names?” Sakuya continued.
“Seems like it.”
“So Kazunari’s not mad at me?”
“Uh probably not, no.”
“Whatever it is, they’ve gone too far.” Juza said. “He hurt Muku, they shoulda dropped it when they saw that.”
“I’m not sure this is a prank.” Itaru thought out loud. “Like you said, it hurt someone but also, Tsuzuru seemed way too adamant for it to be a prank.”
“There’s one way to find out.” Chikage walked to the door and saw Tsuzuru, taking more selfies by the flowers. “Tsuzuru, could you come here for a minute?”
“What’s up, Kage?” He asked as he strolled up to the door.
“I just wanted to see how things were going.” He gives him a strong pat on the back.
“The lighting’s sups good rn, so I thought I could get some pics.”
“That’s good. Sorry to interrupt that, I just wanted to chat.”
“Cool, I’ve gotta go now! Bye!”
They said their goodbyes and Sakuya moved to Chikage’s side.
“What’s the plan?”
“I planted a bug on him. If he talks like that when he’s alone, we’ll know it isn’t a joke.”
“What do you mean?” Kumon asked this time.
“We act for an audience,” Chikage took out a strange device and started messing with it. “If there’s no audience, there’s no need to act. There.” He set it on the table.
“Kuru!” Tsuzuru greeted Yuki. 
“What is it, Villager C?” He said, not noticing the nickname.
“I wanted to see how you’re doing, Kuru!”
“What?”
“Well, you’re here, so I thought I’d ask.”
“What’re you doing? What’s your game here?”
“No game, dude, just wanted to say hey.”
“Give me a minute.” Yuki entered the common area. “The fucks up with Villager C?”
“That’s what we’re trying to figure out.” Chikage stared at the device.
“Hey Kinari-iro, whassup?” Rang out from the speaker.
“I’m a little busy right now.”
“Uku was kinda really sad earlier. He said you’re upset with him.”
“Oh, really? I should apologize then, huh?”
“Are you?”
“No, I don’t know why he thought that.”
Their talk went on for a little while before it was interrupted by Misumi and Hisoka breaking in through the windows and Chikage at the door. They grabbed the confused men.
“Hey!” Tsuzuru yelped.
“Alright, now it’s time to find out what the hell’s up with them.” Chikage said to Itaru.
“Us?!” Kazunari yelled.
“Yeah, you were acting really weird.” Masumi said.
Kazunari looked flabbergasted, he attempted to gesture around the room to the people who just burst in and grabbed them. There was some struggle on account of the fact that Hisoka had him by the wrists.
“Yeah, not to be judgy, but you guys are the ones being weird if anyone is.” Tsuzuru said, encaptured in what could only be described as a bear hug by Misumi.
“God that’s weird.” Banri muttered from the door.
Izumi walked into the room, sighing.
“You two have been acting atypical all morning.”
“No… I’d say this is pretty standard.” Kazunari said.
“I’d have to disagree…” Tasuku commented.
“So, what, are you saying me and Minagi suddenly became different people?”
“Stranger things have happened!” Misumi said, lifting Tsuzuru a little.
“And we’re supposed to just believe that? It’s absurd!”
“I never thought I’d see the day Kazunari called something absurd.” Tenma said.
“I can’t believe it.” Kazunari looked at his troupemates. “I can see them trying to pull this weird- whatever this is- but you guys?”
“Listen Friendly McExtravert, we’re all as confused as you.”
“I don’t mind it all that much. Mitsu is a really good hugger.”
“Thank you! I love the nickname!”
“I thought you would. You’re so based.”
“Based?” Tsumugi mumbled.
“Please make him stop using internet lingo.” Yuki said.
“And could we do it quickly? I’m tired.” Hisoka said.
“You’re always tired.” Tasuku shot back.
“If you wait a little while longer, I’ll get you some fancy marshmallows.” Homare offered.
“So how do we get them back to normal?” Muku asked. “Or is it impossible, and we’ll have to continue our lives with what are strangers in friends’ faces? How much will change?”
“Muku, you’re spiraling.” Juza said.
“But how do we go about this?” Azuma asked.
“It’s likely that whatever method was used to make them this way, we can work backwards to put them back to normal.” Guy suggested.
“But what made them like this?” Izumi asked. “Masumi, did Tsuzuru do something weird yesterday?”
“No. He went to bed and when I woke up he was talking like that.”
“Anyone else?”
It was the same story, nothing unusual happened the prior day. Izumi thought for a moment.
“What if it happened in their sleep or something?”
“Like what?”
“I dunno. Magic or something. Stranger things have happened.”
“You’re so smart…”
“Magic? Director, I think your imagination is getting a little too wild.”
“I mean, it’s not the first time someone temporarily changed into a completely different person for a strange reason. Remember when Banri put that talisman on Taichi?” Omi said.
“I don’t…” Taichi muttered.
“What happened?” Azami asked. Taichi wasn’t the only one not there for it.
“He was possessed or some shit.” Banri answered. “He was kinda a dick.”
“Sakyo beat him up afterwards.” Juza said.
“That part I remember…”
“Anyway!” Izumi clapped her hands together. “Maybe they’ll be back to normal tomorrow.”
“Well, what do we do until then?” Kazunari asked, finally getting his arms back from Hisoka.
“I don’t know about them, but I’m getting as much footage of Tsuzuru like this as possible.” Itaru whispered.
“Great for blackmail.” Chikage responded.
“Yep.”

SSR Homare [Wachter of the Holy Night]: Backstage Translation
I heard the news, I’m quite upset with it, so I would appreciate it if no one ask/talk to me about it. Thank you for your understanding~
In the meantime, just enjoy Homare’s story~ Also, I’m not German in anyway, but according to google translate, wachter means Guardian.
Summary: Christmas party becomes a snowball fight tournament in Homare’s vacation home.
Tumblr media
Disclaimer:
A3! belongs to Liber Entertainment
Translator’s Note: There are quite a bit of reference to previous events on this story. But mainly being Summer and Winter Troupe training camp and Muku/Sakuya/Kazu knowing Homare’s Grandmother from Luminous Circus.
Troupe Competition! A Serious Snowball Fight!
Tumblr media
Homare’s Grandmother:
Homare, you came.
Homare:
I just arrived.
So, Grandmother, what do you want to talk about…?
Homare’s Grandmother:
It’s about Christmas Party.
I was thinking of opening up the vacation home for it this year.
Homare:
Oh, that sounds like a good idea. It’s a wonderful place, I’m sure Grandmother’s guest will be delighted.
Homare’s Grandmother:
No, that’s not the case. I’m not talking about my acquaintances; I’m thinking about inviting everyone from your theatre troupe.
Homare:
My comrades from the theatre troupe?
Homare’s Grandmother:
You have a certain habit, I figured you would have troubled them throughout the year.
Homare:
Grandmother… Are you sure it’s alright?
Homare’s Grandmother:
If it’s not alright, I won’t even bring it up from the first place.
Homare:
… Thank you so much!
Then, I’ll go and tell them immediately.
<Shifts to Dorm>
Homare:
Everyone, listen to me!
We’re going to hold a Christmas Party in my vacation home.
By all means, I’m inviting everyone to come, how is it!
Kumon:
Eh, we’re going to Homare-san’s vacation home again!?
Homare:
Yeah, you’re right.
Citron:
Oh, I heard about it from Summer Troupe and Winter Troupe’s training camp, I wanted to come too you know!
Juza:
Kumon said that Homare-san’s vacation home is really big right.
Kumon:
Yeah! It’s so big, it feels like you’re doing an exploration inside. I had so much fun back then~!
Kazunari:
Ah, but that time, we ended up crashing Aririn’s grandmother’s party!
Director:
Homare-san, are we holding this without your Grandmother’s permission again…
Homare:
You’re wrong. Rather, it’s actually an invitation from my Grandmother herself this time.
Hisoka:
… Is it an apology because Arisu has troubled the troupe throughout the year, maybe?
Homare:
Hisoka-kun, why do you only know such things.
Director:
Ahaha… But, I’m relieved if that’s the case. By the way, when will it be?
Homare:
Oh, I’ve forgotten to tell you.
The party will be held next weekend.
Sakuya:
Will your Grandmother come to the party as well?
Homare:
Of course.
Sakuya:
If so, can I come too?
It’s been a while since I met her!
Muku:
Me too, let me greet her too!
Kazunari:
Hmm, I wanted to come too, but that day seems though for me.
Really sorry!
Kumon:
I’m free!
Can I come too!?
Homare:
Everyone is welcome. Grandmother said that she doesn’t mind for everyone in the troupe to come.
That’s why, I’m going to talk to the others who aren’t here right now too.
If you have some time, please come!
<End of Part 1>
Tumblr media
Takao:
Welcome everyone.
Director:
Long time no see.
Pleased to be with you today!
Homare:
Everyone, thank you for coming.
Please enjoy your time here.
Sakuya:
Woah, the place’s so big!
Citron:
The displays are full of wonderful vases and pictures!
Banri:
As expected of Homare-san’s vacation home.
Muku:
It reminds me of the training camp!
Tsumugi:
You’re right.
Fufu, that time, a lot of things happened.
Hisoka:
Arisu tried to use this place without permission, it became a big problem.
Homare:
I was told that I can use it as I want!
It just happened to overlap with my Grandmother’s party.
Tenma:
Regardless, making the script and costumes last minute was a good experience.
Masumi:
Tsuzuru too, he was hurrying the script while talking to Tsumugi and the others on the phone.
Tsumugi:
Ahaha, right. We called Tsuzuru-kun and got some help to make the script.
Banri:
Just from the story, I can tell you guys were in a big trouble.
Juza:
But, I want to be able to act flexibly and adapt like that too.
Kumon:
If it’s Big Brother, I’m sure you can do it!
Also, even if Robert the armor moves, I won’t be scared anymore.
Tenma:
E, even I won’t be scared anymore!
Masumi:
… No one said anything about Tenma.
Homare’s Grandmother:
Everyone, thank you for coming.
Thank you for always taking care of Homare.
Director:
Thank you so much for the invitation.
We’re bothering you with a lot of people today.
Sakuya:
Good afternoon!
I’m glad I can meet you again.
Muku:
It’s been a while!
Thank you for the invitation.
Homare’s Grandmother:
You guys came as well.
Please take it easy and enjoy your time here.
There are a lot of food prepared, please don’t refrain yourself.
Director:
Thank you so much.
Kumon:
Amazing, the table top looks so luxurious!
It’s shining!
Banri:
Oh, this looks like something that Kazunari and Yuki will be happy to see.
Citron:
Over here, the meat looks delicious!
Juza:
The sweets look delicious too.
Hisoka:
There are a lot of marshmallows… I’m happy.
Homare:
Then, we’ll start with a cheer!
It’s daytime though, so I’m not taking out the alcohol.
Tsumugi:
There are a lot of minors too.
Thank you for your concern.
Homare:
Then, for the welcome toast, I’ll deliver a poem.
Christmas is comparable to crystal--
Hisoka:
Arisu, your speech’s too long.
Cheers.
Homare:
Hisoka-kun! I’m still in the middle of it!
Banri:
Nah, that’s enough.
Cheers.
Troupe Members:
Cheers!
Tumblr media
Director:
Ahaha… I apologize for them.
Homare’s Grandmother:
Don’t mind.
It’s true that Homare’s speech is too long anyway.
Homare:
Even Grandmother!
Director:
(Fufu, even if he said that, Homare-san looks like he’s enjoying himself)
Juza:
Hisoka-san, that cake is delicious.
Hisoka:
Thank you.
This marshmallow taste great too.
Tenma:
The two of you, why do you eat sweets first for lunch…
Banri:
… Just looking at them gives me the heartburn.
Sakuya:
Citron-san, this meat is so tender!
Citron:
Oh, this sauce’s the best!
Masumi:
Director, what do you want to eat?
I’ll take it for you.
Director:
Really? Thank you.
Everything looks delicious, I don’t know what to start with.
Right, what will Homare-san recommend?
Homare:
Let’s see, I want you to try everything here, but how about starting with buratta caprese.
Director:
Woah, it looks so delicious!
Then I’ll get this. Masumi-kun, are you going to eat this too?
Masumi:
… I’m reluctant to take Homare’s recommendation, but it’s fine if I can see your smiling face.
Homare:
Geez, Masumi-kun, you’re the same as usual.
Tsumugi:
… Ah.
Speaking of which, this vacation home has a wide and wonderful garden right.
Muku:
There are a lot of snow piling up today too, it feels so romantic somehow!
Kumon:
Amazing, if there’s this much snow, we can even do snowball fight!
Citron:
Oh, Japanese snowball fight, I want to try it too!
Sakuya:
That sounds fun!
Director:
But, if a lot of people step on the garden at once, won’t it be a trou…?
Homare’s Grandmother:
I don’t mind, there are no flower beds underneath.
You can do anything you want there.
Tsumugi:
Thank you so much.
Homare:
Then, let’s go out and have a snowball fight after everyone’s done eating!
<End of Part 2>
Tumblr media
Tsumugi:
No matter how many times I see it, it’s such a wonderful garden.
Somehow, I’m still pretty excited.
Homare:
Really?
Oh, it looks like the sky will clear out in a bit.
Tenma:
Then, what are we going to do about the team.
Homare:
How about making it a competition between troupe?
The number of people seems to be just right too.
Tenma:
You’re right.
Then, let’s do that.
Kumon:
Alright, I’ll do my best for Summer Troupe!
I want to be with my Big Brother on the second round though!
Hisoka:
… Are we having a second round.
Juza:
Only Autumn Troupe is left with two people though.
Tsumugi:
But if it’s Banri-kun and Juza-kun, it’s like you have the strength of 3 people.
Banri:
No, I don’t think I can do it properly with this guy.
Homare:
Then, would it be fine if Director join the Autumn troupe?
Director:
Eh, me!?
Sakuya:
I see, then everyone will have 3 people on their team!
Director:
I was thinking of cheering everyone instead of participating…
Banri:
It’s fine, isn’t it.
Director-chan, let’s do it too.
Muku:
I’m sure it will be more fun than just watching!
Director:
You’re right, then…
Masumi:
If that’s the case, I’ll join Autumn troupe too.
Citron:
What are you saying, Masumi is in Spring Troupe!
Sakuya:
The number of people will be wrong, let’s do our best with the three of us this time!
Masumi:
Tenma:
How about the rule?
Kumon:
You drop out when you got hit by the enemy team, the team who remained through the end will be the winner, how about that!?
Homare:
Let’s go with that.
Then everyone, are you ready?
Muku:
Yep, let’s do it!
Citron:
Okay dayo~
Kumon:
Then, Inter Troupe Snowball Fight, commence!
Troupe Members:
Let’s go!
Tumblr media
<Short Time Skip>
Citron:
Fufun, I will defo defo beat everyone!
Masumi:
Sigh… To be in different team from Director…
Sakuya:
Look, it’s starting, Masumi-kun!
Ah, I found Tenma-kun!
… There.
Tenma:
Oh, oops.
Hmm, don’t think that I’ll be that easy to hit!
Sakuya:
Woah, a counterattack…!
Citron:
Sakuya, that’s dangerous!
I’ll assist you! There!
Kumon:
Over here too! I’m going to protect Tenma-san, take that!
<Short Time Skip>
Tsumugi;
Alright, I have to try my best too…
Firstly, let’s make the snowball properly…
Masumi:
Tsumugi, if you’re stoning in that kind of place, I think you’ll get targeted immediately.
Tsumugi:
Eh, Masumi-kun!?
Since when were you this close--
Masumi:
I’m going to show Director my cool side…!
Tsumugi:
Wa, wait a minute!
Woah!
Masumi:
… He avoided it successfully.
Then next--
Homare:
Tsumugi-kun, I’ve come to help you!
Take that!
Masumi:
… What kind of throwing method is that.
Tsumugi:
Homare-san, I think you won’t hit anyone if you keep throwing that way…!
Homare:
Hmm, really?
I thought it was a good stance.
Juza:
If it’s from here, I should be able to take Masumi down.
--There!
Banri:
…What the! You hit the back of your own teammate, where the hell did you even aim at, no-con! (T.N: No-con is short  for no control)
Juza:
It’s your position that’s bad.
Banri:
What the hell was that!
Director:
The two of you are in the same team right, don’t fight!
Banri:
Ah, whatever, the one I want to hit with the snowball the most right now is him.
Director:
Well well… Ah, Muku-kun.
Muku:
Ba, Banri-san, Ju-chan, Director-san, prepare yourself!
Banri:
Oh, oops… Safe.
Director:
Me too, I managed to avoid it somehow…
Juza:
But, I think it will be better for people from the same team not to gather in the same place.
Director:
Then, I’ll be going to that direction!
<Short Time Skip>
Director:
… Phew, I think I’ve lost Muku-kun for now.
Homare:
Oh, I don’t think I’ll see Director-kun in this kind of place.
Director:
Homare-san…!
[
[
Choice 1: The garden is a really nice place
Director:
Umm… The garden is a really nice place!
Homare:
You’re right!
It’s the prided garden of Arisugawa family.
But, it’s too wide, it becomes hard to make a hit in a snowball fight, it might be the only drawback it has.
Director:
Ahaha, it’s true, meeting Homare-san here was too much of a chance to pass…!
]
]
[
[
Choice 2: The snowball fight is fun
Director:
I’ve never really played snowball fight with this many people before, it was fun right!
Homare:
Yeah. What’s more, I got the chance to confront Director-kun like this. It’s really an exciting situation.
Flying snowball, cool heel on the useless rule, the rose…
Director:
Homare-san, is it alright for you to show me so much opening?
I’m in the Autumn Troupe team you know?
Homare:
Hmm, I thought I can distract you when you’re entranced with my poem.
If it doesn’t work then I’ll have no other choice.
I’m going to hit you with the snowball with all I have!
]
]
Director:
… I’m going in with all I have!
Take this!
Homare:
As you wish!
…Take that!
Director:
(Ho, Homare-san’s form, what is that!?)
Homare:
Ah, Director-kun, you got me!
I guess I’ll have to drop out now... What a pity.
Director:
I, I did it! I can hit someone too, with this, one person’s down…
???:
… There’s an opening.
Director:
Eh?
Homare:
Director-kun, now you need to drop out too!
Hisoka:
Director, you were wide open.
Director:
Eh!?
Homare:
Hahaha, you were off guard, Director-kun!
Director:
And I thought I actually did well…!

A3! Act 3 Episode 9 Summary
Please read through this note before you start reading the summary!
whhhhew, finally finished episode 9 and THE EMOTIONS ARE ROLLING-😭😭
but ofc being the maniac that i am ive decided to provide a full summary of episode 9 for those who are interested!
Be warned that this is MAJOR STORY SPOILERS so i would recommend you be at least finished act 2 and all the events leading up to it before you read this. Otherwise you’ll probably have a hard time understanding the full context of things.
The last note I want to make is that this won’t be a detail-for-detail summary! I still want to keep things decently vague so people can still have the joy of experiencing the story for themselves while still providing adequate information to clear up any confusions and speculations. This summary will basically be a rough outline of the story that highlights some of the major events that went on. This summary will follow the order of how the episode played out, all the events will be listed in order.
Ofc, if anybody has any specific questions regarding the story that they want clarified or just simply want to discuss episode 9: always feel free to shoot in an ask or dm me! I’m always happy to provide with information and/or rant about these precious boys!
Well, without further ado, here y’all go~~
WARNING: EXTREMELY LONG POST AND MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD~
the new groups of people now are the following:
High schoolers- Yuki/Muku/Azami/Kumon
Yosei University- Juza/Tsuzuru/Tenma/Taichi
Amabi- Kazunari/Banri
Adult group is still adult group~~
Apparently Tenma’s parents decided it would be a good idea to let him attend university so it was decided on the spot that he would be going through exams. He had to get Chikage to tutor to barely scrape by passing bc of how busy he was. Taichi on the other hand....Tsumugi the GOAT-
Omi now works as a professional photographer through a job his friend introduced him to.
Masumi decided to go to Fuyou University which is Tasuku and Tsumugi’s old university to study. Misumi’s brother, Madoka, also studies there. Although Madoka does not look like it, he’s actually 19... I know...
Azami decided to attend the same high school as Kumon which warms my heart honestly bc it just showed how good of friends they’ve become <3~~ Here’s his new uniform look <333
not sure how i feel about the red hoodie but eh, boy can pull it off so it doesn’t matter aha~
Tumblr media
Guy is apparently opening up a new Zahra style bar with the help of the winter troupe members such as Homare who introduced him to an interior design company (same company that installed that brick wall in his room orz). Hisoka will also be helping out in Guy’s bar.
The entirety of Reni’s backstory (5 episodes in total) which describe his initial meeting with Yukio during high school to how they built Mankai together was described through the format of portraits (the autumn troupe signature). HIs backstories are basically just narrations of Act 3 1/2 if any of you read that when it was first posted.
Reni’s real name is apparently “Kamikizaka Reiji” and “Reni” is a nickname that Yukio gave him in high school bc Yukio thought that his real name was too hard to write out in kanji and pronounce lolol.
Reni keeps a journal which documents his time with Yukio (basically Act 3 1/2) in a safe in his office.
Kasumi’s nickname back in the day was apparently “Juriko”: stems from “Juliette” and “ko” which is a way to feminize someone’s name in Japanese. This was because he was the crossdresser that had to play Juliette in the OG spring troupe RomiJuri- heh.
 Shifuto is now the new “top” in GOD Troupe after Tasuku and Haruto who got demoted.
FRIEND ANGST BETWEEN AZAMI AND SHIFUTO HNGHHH and that’s all I’m willing to say oop-
GOD Troupe challenged Mankai to an act-off once again and this time appointed Tsumugi as the lead and Tasuku to be in the play and the theme as “devil” and thus...Devil Tsumugi was born.
The company was initially debating on whether to accept the challenge or not but Tsumugi and Taichi desperately wanted to show Reni who they have become as an actor and prove him wrong on all the things he’s said to them. Basically, everyone who was casted for this play had their own reasons on why they wanted to act.
Misumi’s dad’s name is revealed to be “Kusumi” which literally means nine-points/sides and I- top 10 betrayals? I was certain that his name will have something to do with a square but apparently not-
Although it was briefly revealed during Sky Pirates, Misumi’s dad is the official script writer for GOD Troupe. However, it is shown here that he has absolutely no talent in writing so what he does is get Madoka to act as his ghostwriter and write for him.
Hence this birthed Madoka’s complex of wanting to write in his own free will and not under the control of his father. Since everything he writes gets “edited” by his father but everything his father edited gets rejected by Reni and so Madoka has to fix it himself anyways.
Returning to backstory, Reni revealed that Yukio legit went to visit Misumi’s grandpa (Hakkaku) as a senior high school student to ask him for a script. As a note, Hakkaku was already a very famous script writer at that time and age wise he is about what both their dads would be. Ofc he was refused many times but Yukio wouldn’t give up and would not stop pestering Hakkaku until he finally caved in.
Honestly I loved the autumn and winter troupe dynamic throughout this entire episode- just the way they supported Taichi and Tsumugi is just-
Kumon had to act as the mediator between Azami and Shifuto to try and recover their friendship and the entire process was hilarious.
Yukio and Reni were actually Yuzo and Kasumi’s high school seniors at Nanakusa High. Yuzo was the “ghost member” that was only member of drama club in-name only that was mentioned earlier.
NAMIKAWA DAISUKE’S VOICE IN KASUMI- *deaded counter x1* as a tiny side note: i realized half way through that Tezuka (Reni), Sanada (Yuzo), and Ootori (Kasumi) were in the same high school together bc of their seiyuus. This is for my TeniPuri fans out there haha~~
During their last performance in high school, Yukio and Reni got boycotted by the other junior members right before their play. Reni ended up forcing a reluctant Yukio to go at speak act out the monologue Hakkaku provided for them and everybody ended up being overwhelmed by Yukio’s performance.
This is what ended up making Reni dedicate his post high school life creating Mankai with Yukio, he wants to see Yukio act on stage again. He describes Yukio’s acting as “someone who was chosen by God” and even went as far as using his own money his parents gave him when they kicked him out (strict family bs) to build the initial theatre while they both worked part-time. Reni was the one who designed the entire theatre according to Yukio’s wishes to “make it long lasting”. However, Yukio revealed to him that he has no desire to stand on stage again and instead wants to make others “full bloom”, this invoked a sense of betrayal in Reni.
Reni was also the one who recruited Syu, his childhood friend, into the theatre. From there on, Yuzo and Kasumi also joined. Kasumi was revealed to also be garbage at acting at first but Yukio appointed him as lead for their first play nonetheless.
There is apparently some outside force wanting to ruin Mankai as they even went as far as stealing a part of Tsuzuru’s script and provided it to Misumi’s dad who ended up plagiarizing. It is later revealed that Reni had nothing to do with this so it is currently unknown who the main perpetrator is.
 In order to get a better grasp on his devil character, Tsumugi opted to spend one day with each of the other winter troupe members (Homare, Hisoka, and Azuma) individually. This is to get more insight from people who had lived such different lives and accumulated such different experiences. Honestly, one of the most heartwarming moments ever.
Tumblr media
MY ANGST MAN IS HERE WITH HIS FIRST APPEARANCE!!! SAKURAI TAKAHIRO’S VOICE OMGGGGG *deaded counter x2*
He met Tsumugi in front of the GOD Theatre and asked him to “save” Reni.
On the day of the performance, Tsumugi and Taichi decided to walk to the theatre. They met Banri and Juza along the way who were planning to do a street act to release some energy. On their way, they ended up being surrounded by numerous punks who were presumably sent by the same outside force who stole Tsuzuru’s script.
The night before the actual performance, the plagiarism was revealed to both sides and both sides were just as much caught off guard by this. Reni, however, refused to change the direction of the play since it was too risky as the performance is the next day. However, Shifuto refused to act out something that is plagiarized since he promised Azami that they would have a “fair fight like men”.
And so, he managed to convince Haruto to use Madoka’s script that he has written for the first time according to free will and changed the entire play in one night. With the help of Haruto’s authority, they managed to do it in time. (I’ve failed to mention this until now but these three has been building up chemistry all through out this episode and im so down for them tbh)
Banri told Juza to take Tsumugi and Taichi and go ahead while he stays behind to try and buy some time alone against all the men. Just when Banri was in a tight spot due to power in number...
Tumblr media
BAM THIS OLD MAN COMES IN AND SAVES THE DAY!! by now y’all already know... YASUMOTO HIROKI’S VOICE HAAAAAAAAAH *deaded counter x3*
After Banri revealed to Zen that he was autumn troupe leader of Mankai, Zen gave him a card of his restaurant, “Gentiana” and promised to treat them to a meal there afterwards.
Tumblr media
Costume reveal for GOD Troupe. Honestly, I love the chemistry that was built throughout this episode between Shifuto, Haruto, and Madoka. Haruto really did give out redeeming qualities and i don’t dislike him as much as before aha (even tho he is still a snob) and I acknowledge him as a character. Madoka’s script consisted of two characters and basically talks about two estranged brothers (his way of writing down his guilt for towards Misumi)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Costume reveal for Mankai as many of you probably have seen already- devil tsumugi and sexy tasuku is just-
 In terms of actual in-game plays, this was the second play that I’ve actually cried at, the first being Clockwork. Super emotional and well-written play and certainly it draws a lot of parallels to Sympathy for the Angel.
Tumblr media
SAME RENI...JUST-SAME. TT
After the performances...i won’t reveal who won and by how much but Reni did officially apologize for all his past actions as he was reminded of his passion for acting through this play. Izumi thought this too but it is hard to 100% forgive him bc of the pain he’s brought on all the members.
He revealed why he quit Mankai, it was bc he and Yukio had become so divided that if he had stayed, the entire balance of Mankai would fall to ruins. He actually came to the conclusion to leave after being trapped in the time loop with Yukio for about three days aha~
Reni decided to create GOD Troupe bc he wanted them to win the Fleur Awards first and crush Mankai, that way, he may have the chance one day to accepted a lost Yukio in his troupe as an actor and not a director (obsessed much my dude??)
The last part of the episode is Reni wanting to talk to Izumi about the Ikaruga family and being invited to Mankai Dorms as a result. There he reminisced the days with the OGs before we are left with a cliffhanger-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even though he only talked for two lines but ONO DAISUUUUKE~~~ *deaded counter x4*
The very last scenes showcased how the OGs are starting to come back together as they will be getting involved with the new Mankai members.
Tumblr media
THIS OLD MAN LEGIT WENT AND HELPED THEM PICK CABBAGE I-
Tumblr media
LOOK AT THIS EXPRESSION HE IS SO PRECIOUS-
~❀❀❀~
that concludes the rough summary of episode 9! i...this was an ordeal to get through aha and sorry for it ended up being such a long post...It was inevitable bc this episode consisted of 39 chapters. 
Honestly im so dead by the end of this that i didnt have the heart to check for any grammar mistakes so there’re probably quite a few that i ask you kindly to just ignore~ 🥺🥺
now, time to dig a hole and cry until episode 10 comes out...☠️😇😭

Hey there! Coming for the ask game for 2, 45 and 49 please💕 Hope you're doing well too love!
Oh, wow I really wasn’t expecting to get any asks!!!! Thank you so much!
2) Favorite Troupe
I love all of the troupes, I really do. However, I really am partial to Autumn Troupe. As much as I’d loved the upbeat nature of the story when it came to Summer and Spring Troupes, I am WEAK for people with complicated or dark past lives trying to turn over a new leaf. (and the idea that those dark pasts could come back to haunt them at any time and maybe pull the troupe into danger excites me)
Actually, I’m weak for Hurt/Comfort in general, and something about the whole way the portraits were set up and treated by the game left me with so much FUEL.
Like ok, TAICHI.  I seriously love Taichi’s whole character arc, I also seriously love how protective Autumn troupe, and specifically Banri and Juza get towards him after they hear the whole story, ok.  When Beni shows up at their closing night, and Taichi tries to stand up to him, and Juza and Banri chewing him out.  That made me so happy, just SO happy.
I also love Juza, like the poor baby.  He just wants some friends dammit.  (I seriously love imagining what would happen if one of the punks who likes to target him took a cheap shot and went for Muku or Kumon instead.  Can I see Juza in berserk protect mode please?). Also, he’s just such a sweet guy, I mean this figuratively AND literally.  Give him all the pudding he wants, he deserves it.
Like the other troupes had one or two characters with traits like that, and I love them. It’s just that, as a whole, Autumn troupe really makes me happy
(like I was enamored with the idea that Citron was a runaway prince with spies after him for a while)
(Also does anyone else remember that scene that Misumi like got startled but the Director and pinned her in a hold for just a sec because I THINK ABOUT THAT A LOT)(wait a sec I remember reading that in game, I swear.  But, I just reread the whole summer episode and I literally couldn’t find it? I’m afraid I might be going insane, now. )(Does anybody else remember this happening because now I’m really curious what chapter it was?)
(also my crazy imagination running away with the idea that Tenma’s dad literally punched him, though that was before I started reading the Rookie arc for Summer.   I might still write something about them later...)
(Yeah, I really like Summer Troupe too if you can't tell...)
PLUS, their VOICES are so deep. 
I love.
Every.  
Single.  
One.  
Of their songs. 
I could listen to Banri’s raspy friggin’ voice all day, and Juza’s deep voice harmonizes so well with Banri’s. I want to scream.
45) Did your favorite character/troupe change since you started the game?
Ah, well my favorite character and troupe pretty much changed as soon as I first meet a new character. At least with the first three troupes, I was always convinced that nothing could top how much I loved the previous troupe when I started a new chapter, but the game ALWAYS surprised me.
The only troupe that kinda disappointed me was Winter troupe, but that’s mostly because I’m not a huge fan of Tsumugi. Like I love him, I just feel that his character was not nearly as well developed as the other leads, in fact, I feel like Tasuku would have been a better fit for the lead of that troupe, he has a much more interesting character arc, especially when he has to confront the fact that he hurt Tsumugi and apologize to him.
I just always felt that if you took away his friendship with Tasuku, there wasn’t much to Tsumugi. His character is almost built around Takuku’s character arc and the rest of him just feels fake, I guess? Not that Tsumugi is faking it, just that the character traits they chose for him seeem like they have little to no motivation or reasoning behind them, so he doesn’t feel as real as the other leads. It would be fine if he were a side character, but not as the lead.  
That’s why I’m a bit disappointed, like it would even be something if he showed more than token regret for leaving theatre for as long as he did, but he seems more upset about the fact that Tasuku is upset with him, than the fact that he quit doing what he loved for years. Like, it might be too similar to Sakyo’s arc in that respect, but I would have still been fine with it, especially because Tsumugi had his own reasons for leaving theatre, that are different enough from Sakyo's that I would have been satisfied.  
Anyway, I’m getting way off topic.
My favorite character has waffled like crazy too, its just like the header of my blog says, I love them ALL.  Its a bit overwhelming because I’ve never had this experience before, like I always latch on to a character or two and tolerate the rest for most fandoms I’m in.  
Like, at first, I adored Tsuzuru, like he was so friggin’ relatable, and hardworking and earnest that I loved him, I also loved how he was the big brother character.  Though, Itaru was a close second.
Then, it was Misumi.  I got seriously obsessed with Misumi for a while, he was so adorable and honest, and oblivious sometimes that I also sorta related to him, plus his voice is so adorable.  However, Tenma took over after I saw him get punched by his dad and he took over for that troupe from there.  I didn’t really appreciate Kazunari until I came back and reread his parts in the story, I missed some of the nuance of his small arc in my first read through.
THEN, Autumn troupe destroyed me.  DESTROYED ME, and I’m not even kidding. Like I literally hated Banri at first, though really, who among us didn’t at the start of all this.  I mean he was such a little shit for like the first third of the Autumn Troupe’s arc.  I was also on the fence at the beginning with Taichi, like I had like two SSR cards of him by this point so I knew who he was and he just seemed like an off-brand Kazunari to me, but that’s before I started reading so...
Anyway, but otherwise, right at the start of Autumn Troupe’s arc I had THREE FAVORITES just after auditions.  I’d really been looking forward to Sakyo joining, because he was the first SSR that I’d gotten, and immediately I remembered him from episode one and I got excited.   
Also, Omi just immediately appealed to me, the very second I first saw his dumb little confused face (you know the one), I was like ‘I love this man’ and that was the end of it.  Plus, I was getting serious big bro energy from him.  Juza also immediately appealed to me as well, he was just this intense guy but he was so earnest in the beginning that I really took a liking to him right off the bat.  He just felt like a gentle giant, he looks scary but in the way he acted you could just tell that that wasn't really him.
49) Any favorite quotes/trivia?
(not sure how much of this applies as trivia, I think I’ll do my favorite quote post later tho, I just don't have time at this exact second)
I love Sakyo popping bubble wrap, just going to put that out there.
I love the idea that Itaru just uses Sakuya as his personal gatcha drawer, that's just so cute to me.
I love the idea that Tenma literally has no sense of direction.
I love the Mankai Mahjong Club, and literally everything it entails.  
I love the Minagi family and I need more content with them, (thank you A3 anime).
BANRI AND TENMA GOING TO KAREOKE 
(^^ I don't know why I love this but I do)
Muku and Sakyo reading Shoujou manga together.  (It’s just too cute that Sakyo gave in after Muku started berating himself for even deciding to ask, I mean seriously it melts my heart every time I think about it.)
I think that's about it.  Sorry this is so long, and my thoughts are definitely jumbled, because I should definitely be doing schoolwork right now...
BUT THANKS FOR THE ASK!  I had a lot of fun answering these, and I definately went on a few tangents there, but I hope you enjoy it.  If anybody have any follow up questions either that's cool too!
