Touma Inumaru: Good work today!
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Oh, Touma-kun! You made it.
Mitsuki Izumi: Good work today. You here to train after filming too, Inumaru?
Touma Inumaru: Yes. I felt like moving my body a bit, so I came by wondering if anyone else was here.
Touma Inumaru: Didn't expect Sogo and Kujo to be here too. That's pretty rare, isn't it?
Sogo Osaka: Mitsuki-san invited me.
Tenn Kujo: Ryuu said he was going, so I thought I'd stop by and get some stretching in too.
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: We only just got here ourselves. Come join us.
Touma Inumaru: Sure! Actually, I thought so during the fitness test too, but Sogo and Kujo... you guys are insanely flexible!
Touma Inumaru: This is about as far as I can reach on the sit-and-reach.
Sogo Osaka: I think you're just unusually stiff, Touma......
Mitsuki Izumi: Alright! I'll do what I always do and push you from behind!
Touma Inumaru: ....... Whoa!? Mitsuki-san, you're way too strong! Seriously, I can't go any farther than this!
Tenn Kujo: Oh, right. Everyone here except me and Sogo Osaka usually works out together, right?
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Yeah. Momo-san and Torao-kun are here pretty often too.
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Ever since filming for Arca Song started, everyone's been coming more often to prepare for their roles.
Touma Inumaru: Yes. Having friends around just makes it easier to give it your all and push yourself harder, doesn't it?
Mitsuki Izumi: And after we're done, we all grab dinner together before heading home. It's a lot of fun.
Mitsuki Izumi: Hey, let's all go eat together again today.
Mitsuki Izumi: Of course, that includes you two as well, Sogo and Kujo!
Sogo Osaka: Thank you. That sounds really nice, actually.
Tenn Kujo: Since you're offering, I'd love to join.
Mitsuki Izumi: Alright, it's settled then. A meal with the Leader of the Federation and the Wartime Counselor is a pretty grand affair, so prepare yourselves!
Tenn Kujo: ...... Oh no...... I think I may have wandered into some kind of terrifying banquet......
Touma Inumaru: Hahaha! So that's what we're doing! In that case......
Touma Inumaru: Chances like this don't come around often....... Should I take down Euro? ....... No, maybe I should defeat Umarit and offer him up to Lord Amiya instead.
Sogo Osaka: Hmph....... Defeat me? How insolent. I'll make sure you never speak so arrogantly again.
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Before that, Rao has to return to Amiya first.
Touma Inumaru: Oh, right! That just reminded me — that's actually what I wanted to talk about!
Touma Inumaru: The scene where Rao and Euro face off! Tsunashi-san, your acting there was crazy. It gave me chills.
Mitsuki Izumi: Just watching you two had me on edge! You both had so much intensity and were so cool......!
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Actually, during that scene, Touma-kun's performance drew me in so much that I was able to fully immerse myself in the role right away.
Touma Inumaru: Wait, seriously.......!? Man, that makes me so happy........
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: For Euro, his relationship with Rao is pretty complicated, so I wasn't sure how I wanted to play it.
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: But the moment I saw your determined gaze and heard the emotion in your voice, it all came naturally. I could suddenly see exactly how Euro would respond.
Touma Inumaru: Woaaahhh, I'm way too happy right now. I feel like I could run on the treadmill for hours.
Touma Inumaru: Honestly, I was actually struggling with that scene quite a bit before filming too.
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Really? It didn't look that way at all.
Touma Inumaru: Rao acts rough and blunt with everyone except Amiya, but in the scenes before that, he was kind of clumsy, easy to understand, and had a lot of cute sides to him, right?
Sogo Osaka: He was really popular on set too. Like in the scene where he becomes Xin's apprentice.
Tenn Kujo: I really liked how single-minded he was about wanting to find a powerful warrior.
Mitsuki Izumi: I kept wondering how he'd face Euro once they finally met, and man... it turned out so good!
Touma Inumaru: Thanks. I figured everyone would be curious about that part. The conflict Rao carries is really complicated, so I struggled with how to portray it.
Touma Inumaru: But after thinking about it carefully, I realized I actually understood how Rao felt. I'd been through a similar kind of conflict myself.
Touma Inumaru: So I thought back on that time and asked myself what Rao cared about most, what he wanted to protect above everything else, and I used that as the foundation for my performance.
Tenn Kujo: I see. Then the praise you're getting now is the result of all the effort you put in. You used to practice on the emergency staircase, didn't you?
Tenn Kujo: I would sometimes go there to get some fresh air, and one day I heard Rao's lines coming from below. I had to get back to filming quickly so I didn't see all of it.
Touma Inumaru: That's embarrassing as hell...... I can't believe someone saw me.
Tenn Kujo: There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I do feel bad that it ended up looking like I was secretly watching you, though……
Tenn Kujo: But seeing how much Rao meant to you, and how seriously you approached the role, made me straighten up as well.
Tenn Kujo: So thank you for the inspiration.
Touma Inumaru: Man, I don't know what to do with myself right now…… But.......
Touma Inumaru: I really wanted to get a solid grasp on Rao in my own way, so I kept going back over the director's feedback and practicing over and over.
Touma Inumaru: I never imagined I'd end up being praised for it in this way. So it's kinda embarrassing, but thanks.
Mitsuki Izumi: You're amazing, man~! I need to step it up too!
Sogo Osaka: I'm really happy for you, Touma.
Touma Inumaru: Thank you too, Sogo. For listening to me every time I came to you for advice.
Sogo Osaka: It was all because of your own hard work.
Sogo Osaka: Besides, you're always the one who brightens up the mood on set, and that helps us a lot.
Sogo Osaka: Not just us, even the staff said filming was so much more enjoyable thanks to you.
Touma Inumaru: Whooaaah! Man, I'm seriously fired up after getting praised by everyone!
Touma Inumaru: Alright, I'm gonna go run on the treadmill for a bit!
Ryunosuke Tsunashi: Guess it's about time we got started too.
Tenn Kujo: Yeah.
Mitsuki Izumi: We can't let Inumaru show us up, after all!
Touma Inumaru: The treadmill's ready. Alright! Let's give it everything we've got!
I created a website dedicated to any translation related to Arca Song! I'll be dropping all my main story translations there, so I hope this is more convenient for everyone! Have fun everyone!

Stage 1:
Replies:
Touma Inumaru:
I'm Touma Inumaru from ŹOOĻ!
Tora and I had the honor of being featured on the cover of the fourth issue of "DOLCOLLE" 👍
Be sure to check out our special photoshoot!
Torao Mido:
I'm Torao Mido from ŹOOĻ.
It's a top-tier theme that suits us perfectly, don't you think?
It might be a bit intense, but you guys better keep up with us
Touma Inumaru:
Intense, huh?
True, you were kinda sexy in that shoot after all
Torao Mido:
It was right up my alley
You looked pretty good yourself, Touma
Touma Inumaru:
The staff played ŹOOĻ's songs for us during the shoot, so that really got us pumped up too! 😆
Torao Mido:
It felt absolutely amazing
That's Minami's music for you
Torao Mido:
The photographer said he's a fan of our song "Drift Driving," too
Touma Inumaru:
That made me suuuuuuper happy!
Touma Inumaru:
He even gave us this request, saying, "Please give us something with an unexpected angle, like you're going all the way from there straight to LEGEND!" [1]
Torao Mido:
What got me was watching you spend a while thinking about it, then suddenly tilting your whole body at a 45-degree angle and striking a bizarre pose
Touma Inumaru:
Well, he wanted "unexpected" so I figured I had to go that far, y'know? lololol
Torao Mido:
You gave him something so utterly unexpected that it was just perfect.
It was a legendary moment
Touma Inumaru:
If you got a laugh out of it, then it was all worth it 😂
Also, everyone swaying along to the music together during the chorus was super fun too!
Torao Mido:
That song just naturally gets your body moving
Touma Inumaru:
For real.
And I want everyone who picks up this magazine to read it while listening to "Drift Driving" too 👍
Stage 2:
Torao Mido:
In our interviews, we talked about behind-the-scenes stuff from the shoot and our instruction manuals for each other.
Touma Inumaru:
We were just talking about our usual everyday stuff, but does anyone even care about that?
Riku Nanase:
I believe many people do!
Touma-san and Mido-san, you both looked really cool all dressed up 😊
Touma Inumaru:
Thanks, Riku! That makes me happy to hear
Iori Izumi:
ŹOOĻ often take on fairly bold concepts to begin with.
This time, though, I felt there was an added layer of mature allure as well.
I will be taking notes for reference.
Torao Mido:
Huh, didn't expect you to be interested in this sort of concept, Izumi. Well, if you liked it that much, I'm glad.
Touma Inumaru:
Since we’ve got the chance, I’d like people to get to know us even better
Tora, got any more instruction manual stuff you haven't shared yet?
Torao Mido:
It’s not really something I'd include in an instruction manual, but when summer starts getting close, I tend to feel more carefree
Torao Mido:
I'll step out onto my balcony at night and have a glass of chilled white wine
Touma Inumaru:
The night view from your balcony is insanely beautiful!
Being able to look at that whenever you want... man, I'm jealous 😲
Torao Mido:
Then you should just come over too.
Touma Inumaru:
Hell yeah, I definitely will!
Touma Inumaru:
Let’s come up with instruction manuals for Haru and Mina over drinks too!
Torao Mido:
I'm down.
Would be nice if we got the chance to share those someday too.
Stage 3:
Touma Inumaru:
We've been getting tons of messages in the magazine’s fan letter section too.
Thanks, you guys. Some of you even drew portraits of us, which made me really happy! 😄
Torao Mido:
We made sure to read through every single one ourselves.
I'll just share one here
Torao Mido:
“Please tell us what the two of you want to do this summer,” is what they asked.
Touma, what about you?
Touma Inumaru:
This summer, it's gotta be the "VISIBLIVE TOUR 4WARD JOURNEY"‼️
From the first show to the last, I want to have every venue going absolutely crazy!
Torao Mido:
Me too
Touma Inumaru:
Then... once all the live shows go super well and the whole tour's been a huge success, and things finally settle down a bit, I wanna go eat some meat!
Torao Mido:
Is that your roundabout way of inviting us to an after-party?
Haruka Isumi:
If that’s the case, I wouldn’t be against at least considering it I guess
Minami Natsume:
Yes. If Inumaru-san is that insistent, I can’t really refuse.
Touma Inumaru:
Haru! Mina!
Touma Inumaru:
Let’s all go together 😄
I’ll take care of organizing it!
Torao Mido:
I’ll help you find a restaurant.
Might as well go somewhere with really good meat
Touma Inumaru:
Oh, just got a message on Rabbit Chat from those two saying they want a place with good ice cream and cold noodles lolol
Stage 4:
Torao Mido:
For this shoot, we wore the poster outfits from ŹOOĻ’s first album "einsatZ"
It's been a while since we wore those.
Touma Inumaru:
Those outfits have a really clean black-and-white balance, and when we stand together, it looks super sharp and cool
Touma Inumaru:
They even had matching necklaces made for me and Tora, and there was a lot of thought put into these outfits, so I really like them 👍
Momo:
They were really sexy and had a badass feel to them, you both looked super cool~ 😍
Touma Inumaru:
Momo-san! So you've checked it out already! Thank you so much 😄
Torao Mido:
That necklace was designed so that it naturally draws attention to your poses, right
Touma Inumaru:
That was something I really wanted to show off, so I was happy they made a point of highlighting it!
Torao Mido:
Here's a little behind-the-scenes story: those necklaces are actually pretty heavy
Torao Mido:
Every time we switched poses, Touma would gently set my necklace down and it cracked me up every time
Touma Inumaru:
Well, I just figured if it went thwack! and hit you, it’d probably hurt lolol
Yuki:
The dangerous vibe was quite nice
We can’t afford to lose to you either
Torao Mido:
No, actually, it was pretty safe compared to the stuff Re:vale does
Touma Inumaru:
What’s that even supposed to mean lolol
Momo:
Tora-chan, if you ever feel like playing with us, just say the word anytime!
Torao Mido:
Got it, then I'll take you two on anytime.
And I'll bring Touma with me.
Touma Inumaru:
Is it okay for me to come along? Then count me in anytime! 😄
Touma Inumaru:
Anyway, me and Tora’s outfits are full of little details too, so look forward to it!
Rainbow City's very first idol magazine, "DOLCOLLE", is packed with plenty of highlights from other idols as well.
Be sure to look forward to the groups and features coming up in future issues too!
The End.
