A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 6

Izumi: Does everyone have a copy of the script?

Juza: Yeah.

Kazunari: Yep!

Ogawa: Whoa...

Ohara: A real Tsuzuru Minagi script...

Tsuzuru: Haha, getting that kind of reaction is a little embarrassing. Anyway, let me know what you all think.

Ohara: This is ridiculously amazing!

Ogawa: A story about humans who accidentally end up in the demon world! I couldn’t stop reading!

Tasuku: Are Ohara and Ogawa playing the two humans in the story?

Tsuzuru: Yep. I was picturing the two of them when I wrote about the humans who wander into the demon village.

Tsuzuru: Ohara will be Gentaro, and Ogawa will be Kawanosuke.

Tsuzuru: But feel free to let me know if a different role caught your eye.

Ohara: No, I want to be Gentaro!

Ogawa: And I definitely want to be Kawanosuke!

Azami: You guys are really into this, huh.

Citron: They’re both pumped up!

Tsuzuru: For sure. So, the two drama club members will be the two humans in the play. As for the demons...

---

Izumi: Okay, we’ve got our cast.

Kuraki: Now we need to think about props and scenery.

Ohara: Well, we can just go through the script to figure out what we need, right?

Tsuzuru: No, I'll make a list of everything.

Ogawa: Wait, we can handle that!

Kuraki: You’ve done plenty already by writing that script in such a short amount of time. Don’t push yourself too hard.

Tsuzuru: I appreciate you saying that, but I still want to do it. Is... that okay with everybody?

Ohara: I guess, if you say so...

Kuraki: All right. We’ll let you take care of it, then. Are you really sure you’ll be okay though?

Tsuzuru: Yes, you can leave it to me!

---

Kazunari: Tsuzuroon, are you really gonna be okay? I can give you a hand if you want help.

Tsuzuru: Jeez, you’re worried too? I’ll be fine.

Kazunari: I hope so... But make sure you get some sleep, ‘kay?

Tsuzuru: Yeah, yeah. I will.

Juza: ...

---

Tsuzuru: We need this and this for the scene... All right, this list is looking pretty good.

Juza: Aren’t you cold out here?

Tsuzuru: Hey, Juza. It's a little chilly, but it helps me stay awake.

Juza: Right.

Juza: Um... want some pudding? I got this earlier today when I went to the convenience store with Tsumugi.

Tsuzuru: I can have this?

Juza: Sugar’s good when you’re tired.

Tsuzuru: Thanks.

Tsuzuru: ... Uh, do I look really tired or something?

Juza: I just thought you would be 'cause you’ve been doing so much stuff for the play.

Juza: And everyone’s worried.

Tsuzuru: Ah, well, sorry about that.

Tsuzuru: But I’m not gonna overdo it. I’m honestly having a lot of fun right now.

Juza: That’s good. I think it's fun too. It feels like I'm a part of the drama club.

Tsuzuru: I’m glad. And the pudding was really good, thanks.

Juza: No problem. I'm gonna go back inside now.

Tsuzuru: Okay. See you later.

Tsuzuru: All right. I’ll work a little longer until I get to a good stopping point.

Tsuzuru: ... Whoa.

Tsuzuru: (What the... I felt a little dizzy just now. Maybe I'm more tired than I thought?)

Tsuzuru: Everyone seems to be worried about me, so I’ll wrap this up for now and get some sleep.

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 5

Izumi: It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Izumi Tachibana, and I’m the supervisor and general director for the Mankai Company.

Izumi: Here are the six actors from our troupe who will be participating in the Setsubun Festival.

Kuraki: I'm Kuraki, the advisor for the Futsuzumi High School drama club. Thank you very much for coming here today.

Ohara: I'm Ohara, a second year and the president of the drama club!

Ogawa: M-my name is Ogawa, and I’m the vice president! And a second year!

Kuraki: You two... I know you’re big Mankai Company fans, so I get why you’re nervous, but relax.

Tsuzuru: I'm Tsuzuru Minagi, and I graduated from Futsuzumi. I’m really happy to be here putting a play together with my underclassmen.

Kazunari: Kazunari Miyoshi here! I’m a Futsuzumi grad just like Tsuzuroon. Nice to meetcha!

Ohara: Nice to meet you too!

Ogawa: I know all about the two of you!

Tsuzuru: Um, r-really?

Ohara: We go to, like, literally every Mankai Company show! And we knew that the two of you went to high school here.

Ogawa: I’m always so impressed by your acting every time I see you guys on stage...

Ogawa: I told Mr. Kuraki how I’d love to perform with the Mankai Company some day, but I thought that was just a dream that would never come true...

Tasuku: You’ve got some pretty enthusiastic underclassmen, huh.

Kazunari: Heheh. They’re such good kids, amirite?

Azami: I mean, you just met them like less than a minute ago.

Ohara: We even get to perform a Tsuzuru Minagi play! This is seriously too amazing to be true.

Tsuzuru: Hearing all of this makes me kind of nervous...

Juza: You’ll be fine.

Citron: Go, Tsuzuru, go!

Tsuzuru: Of course, I’ll do my best no matter what... oh, that’s what I wanted to ask. What did the two of you have in mind for the performance?

Ogawa: W-what? O-oh, I mean, what we want to do isn't...

Ohara: We’re happy with anything as long as it’s something you wrote!

Kazunari: Hey now, this is your big chance, y’know? Speak up and don’t hold back!

Citron: Yes! No holding of backs!

Ogawa: But...

Tsuzuru: Well, we’ve only just met. It’s probably a little tough to speak your mind right now.

Citron: Oh! I thought of a good thing!

Citron: How about we visit the shrine? If you see the place of the performance, you may be inspired with an idea!

Kazunari: Ooh, nice! I was gonna check the shrine out after this meeting, but let’s just all go together now!

Izumi: Does that sound good to everyone?

Kuraki: Yes, thank you very much for your concern. I’m guessing the two of you have no objections?

Ohara & Ogawa: Right!

---

Priest: Welcome, everyone. I am very grateful for your assistance in revitalizing this shrine.

Kazunari: We’re gonna get things goin’ at the school and the shrine all at once. Totes a win-win deal!

Izumi: Where will the performance take place?

Priest: There is a small open area here that I hope will be to your liking.

Azami: It’s a pretty big space.

Tasuku: Looks like we’ll have enough room on stage to move around without any problems.

Tsuzuru: I never paid very much attention to this shrine, even though it’s right next to the school.

Kazunari: Same...

Priest: Well, high school students don’t usually have a reason or need to come to a shrine.

Ohara: Ahh!

Citron: Did you think of something?

Ohara: I did. Um, Tsuzuru... Since it's Setsubun and all, a story about a demon... or something like that. What do you think?

Tsuzuru: Demon? Hmm. Since we’re at a shrine, the aesthetic is a good fit for a story like that.

Tasuku: A demon would usually be the villain, right? It’d be interesting to explore that point of view.

Kazunari: Let’s all be demons then, fam!

Tsuzuru: I see. A full cast of demons, huh.

Azami: We’ll need to work with traditional costumes and makeup. Sounds interesting.

Tsuzuru: There are a few different types of demons to choose from...or, a demon village? Or maybe...

Citron: Oh, ideas are bursting out of Tsuzuru like water boiling!

Izumi: So what do you think, Tsuzuru? Does a story about demons sound good to you?

Tsuzuru: It does. Let’s do it!

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 2

Kazunari: Gonna go see! Mr. Kuraki!

Tsuzuru: I'm glad there was room in your schedule.

Kazunari: I'm totally stoked! Thanks for the invite!

Tsuzuru: If you're going to thank someone, Shifuto and Azami were the ones who made this happen.

Kazunari: Ahaha, for sure.

Kazunari: You know, I was pretty surprised when I heard about this whole connection.

Tsuzuru: Apparently Shifuto has rehearsal today, and he's really bummed about not being able to come.

Kazunari: Were you close to Mr. Kuraki back in the day, Tsuzuroon? Was he your homeroom teacher or something?

Tsuzuru: Oh, I never told you? When I was a first-year, I joined the drama club... but it was only for a trial period.

Kazunari: Say what? I had no idea!

Tsuzuru: Well, I left before I could become an actual member of the club.

Kazunari: I see, I see.

Tsuzuru: What about you? Did you know Mr. Kuraki well?

Kazunari: I never had him for homeroom or anything either, but I basically knew every teacher.

Tsuzuru: Wow. I guess that shouldn't be surprising, though, since it's you we're talking about. 

---

Tsuzuru: Hello, Mr. Kuraki. It's been a while since we last saw each other.

Kazunari: Hiya, Teach!

Kuraki: Yes, time flies... I'm glad to see you both doing well.

Tsuzuru: I was amazed at how much time has passed since drama club when I heard about you and Shifuto knowing each other.

Kuraki: As for me, I had already heard through the grapevine that the two of you joined the Mankai Company.

Tsuzuru: Really?

Kuraki: I like to keep track of everything that goes on around here. After all, I am a drama club advisor.

Kuraki: Tsuzuru getting involved in theater makes sense, but I never expected to hear that Kazunari became an actor, too.

Kazunari: Ahaha, surprise!

Kuraki: Not exactly. At first, yes, I was surprised. But then I remembered how you used to have so many interests... and how you used to jump headfirst into every single one of them.

Kuraki: With that in mind, you becoming an actor isn't surprising at all.

Kazunari: Man, it's like you saw right through me!

Kuraki: Then, there was the Fleur Special Award... the two of you became such splendid young men. I couldn't ask for better students.

Tsuzuru: ... Thanks, Mr. Kuragi. But we still have a long way to go.

Kuraki: Tsuzuru, do you enjoy being in theatre?

Tsuzuru: Yes! I really do.

Kuraki: I see. I'm glad that's how you feel.

Kuraki: When you said you were leaving the drama club, I really, truly wanted to stop you.

Kuraki: But, I agree that family comes first.

Tsuzuru: Mr. Kuraki...

Kazunari: ...

Kuraki: I was worried you would never return to theatre after that. But you have, and you're having a good time, so I can rest easy.

Tsuzuru: Thank you very much for watching over me all this time.

Kazunari: Hold up, I just realized something. Isn't Futsuzumi’s Setsubun Festival coming up soon?

Kuraki: Ah, yes. But since it's just a run-of-the-mill festival and students aren't required to participate, people lost interest and enthusiasm  over the years and eventually stopped coming.

Kazunari: So that's how it is now...

Tsuzuru: I mean, the festival is pretty much just throwing beans at a demon and eating ehomaki sushi.

Kazunari: Uh, that sounds amazing. Wouldn't playing that demon be bomb?

Tsuzuru: I guess the whole thing could potentially look pretty festive.

Tsuzuru: Um, Mr. Kuraki. I think I have an idea.

Kuraki: What is it?

Tsuzuru: What if the drama club helped liven things up a little at the festival? They could do a Setsubun-themed show.

Kazunari: Aw yeah Tsuzuroon, nice idea! People will totally wanna come to the festival then! Let's do it, Mr. K.!

Kuraki: That's certainly a plan to consider, but right now there's a bit of a problem with the drama club.

Tsuzuru: Problem?

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Epilogue

Kuraki: Thanks, you two, for all of your help.

Tsuzuru: Same to you, Mr. Kuraki.

Tsuzuru: Thanks to this play, I feel like I got a second chance to experience what I couldn’t during high school.

Kazunari: I loved feeling like I was back in high school, too!

Kuraki: Well, hopefully more students will be interested in the drama club after seeing that performance.

Ohara: Mr. Kuraki! These people all want to join the drama club!

Kuraki: Already?

Tsuzuru: Seriously?

Kazunari: But the play just ended?!

Kuraki: This is all, I'm sure, thanks to the Mankai Company. I’m looking forward to seeing the drama club grow from here on out.

Kuraki: By the way, we have a lot of ehomaki left from the festival, so feel free to take some home with you.

Kazunari: Wha, for real?!

Tsuzuru: Thank you!

---

Kazunari: And that’s why we’ve got ehomaki, courtesy of Futsuzumi High. Let’s have a Setsubun party!

Tasuku: Fushimi made appetizers, too? Pretty fancy.

Citron: This onigiri has a demon’s face! It is amazing!

Omi: I heard we were having a Setsubun party, so I made a lot of different dishes.

Tsuzuru: Impressive as always... I wasn’t sure if the ehomaki would be enough for everyone, so this is great.

Omi: I had a lot of fun experimenting with ways to make demon-shaped dishes. Oh, there's dessert, too.

Juza: I’ll have some.

Hisoka: ... Me too.

Sakuya: Well then, let’s all dig in!

Kazunari: Hold up, hold up! Everyone, step away from the food!

Taichi: What? Why?!

Kazunari: Don’t forget this is a Setsubun party. Isn’t there something we have to do, first?

Tsuzuru: No, don’t tell me...

Kazunari: Ta-dah! Look what I’ve got!

Muku: Beans!

Kazunari: You gotta do some legit bean scattering for a Setsubun party! This year, the role of the demon goes to...

Kazunari: The festival play crew! All six of us!

Tasuku: What?

Azami: You serious? We’re getting beans thrown at us?

Juza: I’m a demon again?

Citron: It is our duty! Everyone, I am your bean target!

Kumon: All right, here I go! 'Out with the demons, in with good fortune!'

Azuma: Look, it’s Tasuku. Out with the demons~

Tsumugi: Out with the demons!

Tasuku: Tsumugi, what are you even aiming at? None of those beans came anywhere near me.

Banri: Just gotta wait for a demon to be in the perfect spot--hyah!

Juza: Damn it, you're not supposed to throw 'em like that.

Banri: The hell? Who cares how you throw these things as long as you're gettin' rid of demons?

Juza: You kiddin’ me? Like I’d ever let an asshole like you get rid of me.

Yuki: Hey, they’re fighting again.

Muku: Wah! That’s really not how bean scattering works... !

Hisoka: Nom... Setsubun cake is tasty.

Tsuzuru: Jeez, everyone’s just doing whatever they want...

Kazunari: Tsuzuroon, out with the demons! Yah!

Tsuzuru: Hey, wait, what are you doing?!

Kazunari: Like I said, it’s bean scattering time!

Tsuzuru: I’m not ready! Wait, aren’t you a demon too?!

[natarice]

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 10

Citron: Oh, here is the Setsubun Festival!

Kazunari: This is such a throwback! Love it!

Student A: Here's your ehomaki!

Tasuku: Thanks.

Juza: That looks good.

Shifuto: Hey, nice job today.

Azami: Wait, you’re here? I thought you had rehearsal and couldn't make it.

Shifuto: Yeah, but then I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask Reni anyway, since it was a Mankai Company play.

Shifuto: He said I could come as soon as he heard that. So I got here in time to see the whole play!

Shifuto: Didn’t get a chance to change though, and a teacher told me off for not wearing my uniform. Oh well.

Azami: Uh, aren’t you cold dressed like that?

Azami: Anyway, you should apologize to Tsuzuru.

Shifuto: Oh, right! I shouldn’t have just decided you’d go see Mr. Kuraki. Sorry ‘bout that!

Tsuzuru: Nah, don’t apologize. I’m actually glad you did that.

Tsuzuru: And I was pretty surprised to hear that you go to this school.

Tsuzuru: It's been a long time since I’ve been a part of a school event like this. I had a lot of fun.

Shifuto: Nice! Come back next year, then!

Tsuzuru: Yeah, I will. But just as a visitor, not an actor.

Tsuzuru: I really hope more students will join the drama club by then. It'd be great if they have enough members to perform on their own.

---

Tsuzuru: ...

Kazunari: Hey hey, Tsuzuroon!

Kazunari: Hmm~ Is flipping through that script giving you the feels?

Tsuzuru: What does that even mean... ouch!

Kazunari: Oh no, did you give yourself a papercut?

Tsuzuru: A little bit, yeah. It’s not a big deal.

Kazunari: Still, you should get a band-aid on that!

Kazunari: Annnd I’ve got one right here! Sit down for a sec.

Tsuzuru: ... If you insist.

Kazunari: Ta-dah! Hey hey, does this look familiar?

Tsuzuru: Oh...! You gave me a band-aid like this when we were in high school.

Kazunari: I've been thinking about those days a lot lately, since we’ve been coming here so much.

Kazunari: And I kinda miss it, y’know? So I ended up buying these band-aids. I think I’m the one who got hit by the feels, haha.

Tsuzuru: Kazunari...

Kazunari: There! Beautifully done, if I do say so myself.

Tsuzuru: Thanks. Having this on my finger is a little embarrassing, though.

Kazunari: Aw, what? It’s a symbol of our precious memories!

Tsuzuru: ... By the way, thanks for backing me up when I asked the director for help before.

Kazunari: No prob! I wanted us to work together.

Kazunari: And being around those two drama club kids ended up being super fun. It felt like we were back in high school again.

Kazunari: I keep thinking, ‘I’m so glad I did this.’

Tsuzuru: Yeah, me too.

[natarice]

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 9

Izumi: Hey guys, they just made an announcement at the school gym about our play.

Izumi: Looks like our audience is making their way here, now.

Ohara: O-oh, r-right.

Ogawa: It's really about to start... Ugh, I'm nervous.

Tsuzuru: Don’t worry, everything will be fine. Just do it like we practiced.

Izumi: Okay, it’s time! Is everyone ready?

Troupe Members: Yes!

Kabadoji: "Oh? What’s that lying on the ground over there... a human? Haven’t seen one of those in a long time."

Kuwadoji: "Look, two humans! They look pretty dead to me. That means we can eat them, right?"

Gentaro: "Urgh..."

Kawanosuke: "Nnn..."

Kabadoji: "They’re not dead."

Kuwadoji: "Meh. What should we do, then?"

Kabadoji: "Good question. Just leaving them there doesn’t feel right to me. Let's take them to our village for now."

---

Gentaro: "Ughh... Huh? Where am I?"

Kawanosuke: "I don’t recognize anything around here."

Kikumaru: "Oh, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

Gentaro: "Y-You’re...”

Kikumaru: "I’m Kikumaru, a doctor in this village. Kabadoji and Kuwadoji asked me to take care of you two."

Kawanosuke: "This is a village? What the hell is this place, really?"

Kikumaru: "A demon village.”

Gentaro: "D-demons?! Then, you’re...!”

Kikumaru: "Yeah, I'm a demon."

Kawanosuke: "That’s ridiculous! I’ve never heard of a place like this."

Kikumaru: "Naturally, because this village has no connection with the human world. But sometimes humans come here by mistake."

Gentaro: "And we made that mistake."

Kawanosuke: "W-what’s gonna happen to us?"

Kikumaru: "Who knows? The guys who found you work at a hot springs inn around here. Just wait for them to come back."

---

Kabadoji: "I'm back. How are the humans?"

Kuwadoji: "Oh, they’re awake! They look all right."

Gentaro: "You guys saved us, didn't you? We’re grateful for what you did."

Kawanosuke: "Uh, um... Are the two of you really demons?"

Kuwadoji: "Well, yeah. This is a demon village and everything."

Kabadoji: "Humans don’t belong in a place like this. If you can walk, you should go back to where you came from as soon as you can."

Gentaro: "That sounds great, but we don’t know how to go back."

Kabadoji: "Oh, right..."

Kikumaru: "Hey, I’m pretty sure one of your coworkers at the inn has sent humans back before.”

Kikumaru: "I think his name is Randoji."

---

Randoji: “You want to send humans back to their world...?"

Kuwadoji: "Yep, exactly. Ones who ended up here by accident."

Kabadoji: "Kikumaru said you know how to do it.”

Randoji: "Well, I do know, but... you’ll need to pay for that information."

Randoji: "I'll accept one arm from each human. Or, they can pay by working at the inn."

Gentaro: "The inn, please! We’ll work at the inn!"

Kawanosuke: "I’ll do my absolute best to be useful!"

Randoji: “Hah, very well. Then come back first thing tomorrow morning, humans."

---

Marimaru: "Randoji told me everything. I’m not gonna go easy on you today!

Gentaro: "I thought we would be working with Kabadoji and Kuwadoji..."

Higanmaru: "They’re busy. Honestly, they don’t have time to look after humans."

Marimaru: "Now get to work!"

Kawanosuke: "Working here sounded better than giving one of my arms away, but are we gonna be okay?”

Gentaro: "I have a bad feeling about this, but we don’t have a choice anymore.”

Higanmaru: "First, clean the baths. Here’s the cleaning tool. Now, there’s a trick to this. With the right amount of force--"

Kawanosuke: "This demon looks terrifying, but he’s a surprisingly thoughtful and considerate teacher. "

Gentaro: "I think we'll be able to handle this."

---

Kuwadoji: "Nice job today!"

Kabadoji: "Looks like you made it through the day in one piece."

Gentaro: "Yes, thank goodness!"

Randoji: "I hear you did well. My thanks to you, humans."

Kawanosuke: "S-so, that means..."

Randoji: "Yeah, I'll show you how to go home. It’s this way. Follow me."

---

Kuwadoji: "Huh? This is..."

Kabadoji: "Where we first found Gentaro and Kawanosuke."

Randoji: "Here is the gate that connects the demon world and the human world. It only opens for a few seconds a day."

Gentaro: "So what happened was..."

Randoji: "You went through the gate during those few seconds, and then Kabadoji and Kuwadoji must've found you just moments later.”

Kawanosuke: "I-I see."

Kuwadoji: "Wait, I know it’s just for a few seconds, but does that mean the door just opens by itself every single day?

Kabadoji: "I didn’t think it would be this easy... ”

Randoji: "That's everything I know. Ready to head back now?"

Kawanosuke: "Oh, yes! Thank you for helping us!

Gentaro: "Thank you very much!

---

Kabadoji: "It's finally happening."

Kuwadoji: "Well then, take care, you two!"

Gentaro: "You too! Ah, part of me doesn’t want to go."

Kawanosuke: "Being in the demon village was terrifying at first, but it ended up being a really nice place."

Gentaro: "Agreed. I really do want to stay for a little longer."

Kabadoji: "No, it’s better if you don’t... I’ll say it again: humans don’t belong in a place like this."

Kuwadoji: "Nothing bad happened this time, but you’ll eventually become someone’s dinner. Because we're demons!

Gentaro: "Being a demon doesn't automatically make you scary or dangerous. I understand that now, after meeting the two of you."

Kawanosuke: "I hope we’ll meet again."

Kuwadoji: "Hey, the door's about to open! Both of you, go, go!"

Gentaro: "Thank you!"

Kawanosuke: "I'm sure we'll see you again someday!"

Kamadoji: "..."

Kuwadoji: “They’re gone. 'Someday,' huh?"

Kabadoji: "I... I hope we never meet again. It's for their own good."

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 8

Tsuzuru: ... Ngh.

Kazunari: Oh, Tsuzuroon. You awake?

Tsuzuru: Kazunari... I guess I passed out, huh.

Tsuzuru: I’m sorry for making you worried.

Kazunari: Tsuzuroon's so honest...

Tsuzuru: Why are you surprised by that? Anyway, as usual, I didn't do a good enough job taking care of myself.

Tsuzuru: I even shot you down when you asked if I was okay.

Kazunari: Don't worry about that. I mean, I should’ve tried harder to stop you once I noticed...

Kazunari: There’s something I have to say.

Tsuzuru: Huh?

Kazunari: Take better care of yourself.

Kazunari: When we were talking with Mr. Kuraki about high school, you mentioned why you didn't join the drama club.

Kazunari: I'm glad you get to have that experience and have fun now when you couldn't back then.

Kazunari: But you can’t sacrifice your well-being for that.

Tsuzuru: ...

Kazunari: To be honest, telling you what you should and shouldn't do is like the pot calling the kettle black. I mean, if I'm working on a painting or something and I get really into it, I usually end up ignoring what my body needs to stay healthy.

Kazunari: Still, remember how you asked for everyone's help with the play at that group meeting we had?

Tsuzuru: ... !

Tsuzuru: ... Yeah.

Kazunari: So let everyone help you, okay? Don't hold back, just ask.

Tsuzuru: I mean, I wasn't trying to hold back... all I've been thinking is that working on the play with everyone is a lot of fun.

Tsuzuru: Though maybe part of me still wanted to do everything by myself, and I just didn't realize that.

Kazunari: But you do now?

Tsuzuri: Yeah.

Kazunari: Welp, from now on you're gonna lean on us a lot more! It's a promise, okay?

Tsuzuru: Okay.

---

Tsuzuru: Hey everybody, I'm back.

Kuraki: Tsuzuru! Are you all right?

Ohara: How are you feeling?!

Tsuzuru: I'm fine, now. I slept for a bit, and it was pretty refreshing.

Tsuzuru: Everyone, I’m sorry for making you worry.

Juza: It’s fine as long as you’re okay.

Tasuku: Just don't overdo it.

Tsuzuru: Wait, that set piece you're fixing right now... Did I break that?

Kazunari: Yep, you definitely broke it~

Citron: It was a splendid destruction!

Tsuzuru: Uwah, I’m sorry!

Tasuku: Don't worry about it. You didn’t do that much damage. They’re just messing with you.

Juza: And we're almost done fixing it.

Azami: Oh yeah, I got in touch with the director--

Izumi: Tsuzuru?!

Tsuzuru: Director? I thought you were really busy all day and couldn’t make it...?

Izumi: My schedule's not important right now--hang on. Tsuzuru, you’re... okay?

Tsuzuri: More or less, yeah.

Izumi: Oh, thank goodness. I panicked and rushed over here when I heard you passed out.

Azami: I told you he was just asleep.

Izumi: I was still worried, so I ended up driving here anyway.

Izumi: Tsuzuru, I'm sorry I didn't notice how exhausted you were.

Tsuzuru: Don't apologize, it's not your fault!

Izumi: But I'm responsible for making sure you take care of yourself.

Izumi: For now, let's head back to the dorm so you can rest up. The car's--

Tasuku: Wait a minute. Are you driving?

Izumi: Yes? What else would I do?

Tasuku: I’ll drive. Tsuzuru might get sick again if you do.

Izumi: Hey, what’s that supposed to mean?!

Tsuzuru: Haha. Thanks, Tasuku.

A3 - Event Story - First Day of Spring・Setsubun Festival (立春・節分祭) - Episode 7

Kuraki: All right, that’s it for rehearsal today. Let's pick up where we left off with putting the stage scenery together.

Ohara & Ogawa: Okay!

Tsuzuru: Right, I’ll move that over.

Kazunari: Hey Tsuzuroon, is it just me or are you looking kinda wobbly today?

Tsuzuru: I’m fine.

Kazunari: But you haven’t really taken a break since writing the script... We can take care of things here today, so maybe you can go home and take a little nap?

Tsuzuru: Like I said, I’m fine.

Kazunari: Yeah, but y’know, getting rest is more--

Tsuzuru: Like I said, I’m fine. Did you not hear me the first two times?

Kazunari: ...

Kazunari: Okay. You said you’re fine, and I believe you.

Tsuzuru: (Was I too harsh just now?)

---

Ohara: Tsuzuru, I think I can manage by myself over here.

Tsuzuru: Yeah? Then I’ll work on this. The prop--

Tsuzuru: ... Ugh.

Ohara: T-Tsuzuru?!

Kazunari: What happened to Tsuzuroon?

Ohara: He stood up and then fell right over...!

Citron: Tsuzuru, are you okay?!

Tsuzuru: ...

Tsuzuru: ... *snore*...

Kazunari: Huh?

Tsuzuru: Zzz...

Tasuku: ... He’s just asleep.

Azami: Damn, made me nervous...

Juza: He really was tired.

Kazunari: Tax, can you carry Tsuzuroon?

Tasuku: Yeah, I think so.

Tasuku: Here we... go.

Kazunari: I think we should take him to the nurse’s office for now. Are you gonna be okay here if we leave?

Ogawa: Yep, no problem!

Kazunari: And can you let Mr. Kuraki know what happened?

Ogawa: Okay!

Kazunari: Azamin, can you get in touch with the director? I think Tsuzuroon’s fine since he’s passed out like this before, but just in case.

Azami: Uh, right. Got it.

Kazunari: Okay, Tax, let’s go. The nurse’s office is that way.

Azami: ... Did Kazunari seem different just now?

Juza: You think so?

Citron: There was an unusual feeling indeed!

---

Tsuzuki : ...*snore*...

Kazunari: I think that set piece got wrecked when Tsuzuroon fell...

Tasuku: I don’t think it was completely destroyed. We can probably still save it somehow. I’ll try fixing it.

Tasuku: You should stay here.

Kazunari: ...’kay.

Tasuku: But... don’t be too hard on the guy when he wakes up.

Kazunari: Don’t worry, I won’t.
