Tsukasa: "Why do we have to fight each other?!" Tsukasa: "Dad... Please don't make me do this!"*Beep*
Tsukasa: Yes, that felt good... Let's see how it looks on video. Tsukasa: Hmm... Something seems off. Even after Rui went through the trouble of translating this for me... Tsukasa: The show we saw at Riley Dream Park felt so much more powerful and compelling.
King: "Come on, stab me in the heart!" Prince: "Dad...Please don't make me do this!"*Swords Clashing*
Tsukasa: (Their sheer acting ability...!) Tsukasa: So this is a world-class cast... Tsukasa: (Not only were the leads in their element, but the other cast members were also just as spectacular.) Tsukasa: (If I'm going to have any hope of becoming a world-famous star, I'll have to find a way to raise my acting ability to at least their level...) Tsukasa: Alright, once more! Reset my phone and...*Beep*
Tsukasa: "Why do we have to fight each other?!" Tsukasa: "Dad... Please don't make me do this!"*Beep*
Tsukasa: How's that?! I must've nailed that one! Let's take a look! Tsukasa: ... Tsukasa: No! All wrong! My delivery sounds so unrefined and lacks any kind of depth. How can I match what I saw that time? Tsukasa: Hmmmm... Alright, again!*Beep*
Tsukasa: "Why do we have to fight each other?!" Saki's Voice: Tsukasa, keep it down! We can hear you from the living room! Tsukasa: What?! S-Sorry...*Beep*
Tsukasa: *Sigh* This isn't going as well as I'd hoped... Tsukasa: In times like this, it might be good to...*Door Opening*

Keisuke: Now that we're all here, I'll start explaining more about your next show assignment as ambassadors. Emu: Question! Where are we going next♪ Nene: These discussions feel really commonplace now. Rui: Hehe. I think it's exciting to hear from them since we always get to go somewhere new with each show. Tsukasa: Anyway, where's our next destination...? Keisuke: The Special Stage at Central City Park... Tsukasa: The Special Stage at Central City Park?! Emu: I know that place! It's the really, really big stage at the really, really big park, right?! Tsukasa: Yes. It's also a place where world-famous stars performed when they were just starting out...! Tsukasa: And we, at long last, get to perform there... Keisuke: Well, that was the original plan... Unfortunately, it has to undergo renovations starting next week to mend any age-related wear and tear. Tsukasa: Huh? Shosuke: As a result, you'll be performing in the music hall located just near the Special Stage. Tsukasa: B-B-But... Nene: Why do you sound so disappointed? That music hall's pretty big on top of being really nice. Tsukasa: I know... But my expectations skyrocketed just now and... Guh... Rui: The music hall, eh...? We have been performing outside for so long that this could be a nice change to try some new things. Shosuke: I agree. They even said you can borrow any of their props as long as you ask in advance. Shosuke: Here's their inventory list. If anything catches your eye, I say ask and see what they think. Rui: Thank you. Ah, they've made some of their instruments available to us...*Pages Flipping*
Nene: Anyway, now that we know where we'll be performing and what we can use, let's start thinking about what we're gonna do. Emu: Yeah!!

Tsukasa: Alright, let's start discussing what we'll be doing for our next show!
Miku: Yeah♪
MEIKO: A show at a music hall sounds like fun! Why not work some songs into your performance? Nene: Some songs...? Emu: Oh, I wanna play the tambourine! And I also wanna shake-shake-shake the maracas! Tsukasa: Rather predictable choices...
Rin: I'll play the castanets!
Len: I'll play the recorder!
KAITO: Hehe. Sounds like your troupe's turning into a band. Nene: I can only sort of play the instruments I learned at school... Rui: Same. The most I've really done is build some electric instruments for a show... Nene: What? That's incredible... Rui: Hehe. Thank you. Rui: Speaking of which, Tsukasa, can't you play the piano? Tsukasa: Yes, I can. My mom's a piano teacher and I've been learning from her since I was little. Emu: Oh, that's right! Your mom's a piano teacher! Tsukasa: Yes. I've even performed in some minor contests based on her suggestion! Tsukasa: But that's been on the sidelines ever since I decided to become a star... Although, I did use to practice quite a bit. Nene: I had no idea... I take it you can play pretty well. Nene: Oh, I know... Why don't we do "A Pianist Named Thorpe"? Tsukasa: A pianist named... Wait, I've heard of that before. Rui: It's a very famous novella. It's even been turned into an audio play, so there's a script already available. However... Emu: However...? Rui: Tsukasa may have a hard time playing the role of Thorpe. Tsukasa: What? Emu: Huh? What do you mean? He can play the piano. Doesn't that make him the perfect candidate? Rui: True... Why don't we give it a quick try since we're on the topic? Miku: Oh, can we join you?! Please, Rui! Rui: Yes, of course. Tsukasa: (I'll have a hard time... Why?)

A Pianist Named Thorpe
Personajes

Wonderland SEKAI
Wonderland SEKAI
Narrator: "A long time ago, in a certain town, there was a pianist named Thorpe." Narrator: "Thorpe was a gifted pianist who lived on the outskirts of his town, and you could always hear the melodious sounds of a piano emanating from his place of lodging." Emu: Oh wow...! Tsukasa's so good at playing the piano! KAITO: Yes, he is! I'd heard that he could play, but not this well. Rin: Rui! Rui! Doesn't this make Tsukasa a perfect fit for Thorpe? Rui: Yes... He certainly won't have any problems when it comes to playing the piano... Narrator: "But Thorpe had a rather grave failing. Whenever he tried to perform in front of others, he wasn't able to play to the best of his abilities..." Narrator: "Thorpe would audition for his town's band many times, but fail every time due to not being able to perform when it matters most." Narrator: "Having nowhere else to go, Thorpe began playing the piano at a local tavern that was so run down that it hardly ever received any visitors. A place where no one would hear him play." Thorpe: "*Sigh* If only I could join a big band and play music with them..." Thorpe: "I know. In times like this, it's always nice to look at the stars..." Thorpe: "They're so beautiful..." Tsukasa: (Hmm...) Tsukasa: (Thorpe looks up towards the stars because he feels stuck in terms of achieving his goals... He seems to have trouble facing reality because he lacks initiative...) Rui: ... KAITO: (I see... So this is what Rui was worried about.) Narrator: "As Thorpe sits and stares at the distant stars..." Bandleader: "Well, if it isn't Thorpe. Is this where you're playing your piano these days?" Thorpe: "Wait, you're the leader of that band...! It's been so long. What are you doing in a place like this?" Bandleader: "Some of the band and I are here to have some drinks... I see that your love for playing the piano hasn't faded." Thorpe: "No, it hasn't... But I'm still not able to perform when it really counts..." Bandleader: "You'd be more than welcome to play in my band if only you managed to overcome that... Oh, I know!" Bandleader: "A big contest is going to be taking place in town soon. Why don't you enter into it?" Thorpe: "Huh?" Bandleader: "Wouldn't playing in front of a big crowd like that give you a big boost of courage? If you manage to win, my band may be willing to welcome you in as a new member." Thorpe: "What...?!" Bandleader: "Anyway, we'll be looking forward to your performance."*Footsteps*
Thorpe: "If I win... I'll get to join them...?" Thorpe: "I'm probably never going to get another chance to join a band like this again... I have to enter!" Narrator: "Thorpe began practicing like there was no tomorrow." Narrator: "However, no matter how much he practiced, Thorpe still couldn't play well even during his mock rehearsal in front of the others boarding with him." Narrator: "With only ten days left until the contest, an absolutely exhausted Thorpe received some special visitors." Big Sister Squirrel: "That piano sounds so wonderful♪" Little Sister Squirrel: "Yes, it really does!" Thorpe: "Huh? Squirrels...?" Big Sister Squirrel: "Hey, Mr. Pianist! Can you play a song for us?" Little Sister Squirrel: "We want to learn how to dance to a song for this party we'll be attending soon." Narrator: "A pair of squirrel sisters from a nearby forest had come to visit. As cute as they were, to Thorpe, they only got in the way of him practicing." Thorpe: "I don't care about your party! I'm busy! Leave me alone!" Big Sister Squirrel: "Please, just one song!" Little Sister Squirrel: "We really want you to play it for us!" Thorpe: "Ugh... Fine, I'll play it! But you need to go after it's over." Big Sister Squirrel: "Oh wow! This is a great song! But don't you think you're playing a bit too fast?" Little Sister Squirrel: "Yeah, she's right! We'd have to dance and twirl so fast just to keep up!" Thorpe: "Enough! If all you're going to do is complain, I'm not going to play for you!" Narrator: "The squirrels danced and twirled as best they could, but before they went home, they asked Thorpe to slow things down next time." Narrator: "Thorpe let out a deep sigh. However, to his dismay, the squirrels had told their animal friends about him and they all came to visit the next day."
Sheep: "Hello, Mr. Pianist. Can you play a nice song that'll help me and my friends from the farm fall asleep?" Migrating Bird: "Mr. Pianist! I got separated from my friends! Can you play a fun song that'll let them know that I'm here?" Big Brother Cat: "Mr. Pianist, my little brother and sister are sick. Can you play a song that'll make them feel better?" Little Brother Cat: "*Sob* My tummy hurts..." Little Sister Cat: "*Sob* My head hurts..." Thorpe: "Alright, fine...! But in return, you have to leave after I'm done playing!"
Thorpe: "They're finally gone. I can practice in peace now..." Thorpe: "But there might not be any point now since the contest is tomorrow." Thorpe: "*Sigh* I only have half a day left..." Thorpe: "The stars... They're so beautiful..."
Narrator: "And so, the day of the contest had arrived." Narrator: "Thorpe was worried sick about not getting to rehearse in front of others, but he desperately played as best he could. As a result..."*Applause*
Thorpe: "Huh...?" Bandleader: "That was magnificent, Thorpe!" Bandleader: "How did you practice to get this good? Could it be that you found someone to listen to you play?" Thorpe: "*Gasp*" Narrator: "That's right. Thorpe learned how to play in front of others because his animal friends came to listen each day." Narrator: "As the crowd called for an encore, Thorpe decided to play his favorite song to thank all the animals for what they did." Narrator: "Outside of the venue, the animals heard his performance and nodded in thanks for giving them another wonderful song... The end."
Nene: Is about how it goes... Miku: So many animals! That sounds like a lot of fun♪ Tsukasa: Alright, Rui! What did you think of my performance? I personally thought there was nothing wrong! Tsukasa: Especially when I played the piano! It should be smooth sailing with me at the helm! Emu: Yeah, Tsukasa, seeing you on the piano was so cool! Especially when you went all ba-da-da-da-dum! Nene: Yeah, despite everything that was said beforehand, you'll probably be fine with a bit of practice... Rui: No... We shouldn't be so hasty. Tsukasa: What?! Why?! Rui: I agree that there was nothing seriously wrong on the surface, but... Rui: You're just not fit for this role, Tsukasa... Tsukasa: Not fit...?Transcripción

Fitting Into a Role

Rui: Alright, let's delve further into this question of role compatibility. Rui: My goal is to always assign roles in a way that takes advantage of an actor's strengths. Emu: An actor's strengths? Rui: Yes. Actors come in all shapes and sizes. Rui: For instance, some prefer to gradually get into character while others may try to imitate their foibles... Of course, there are prodigies who can immediately take full control of their characters, but let's set that aside for now. Rui: From what I've seen, Tsukasa, I'd say you're someone who likes to gradually get into character. Seemingly the most popular archetype. Tsukasa: Gradually get into character...? Rui: In simpler terms, I believe you prefer to learn by doing since you and logical analyses of characters don't usually mix well. Rui: Which is why I usually try to give you roles that are compatible with your personality, Tsukasa. Tsukasa: Wait, you've been deciding roles like this every time...?! Emu: That's amazing! Rui: I am the director, aren't I? Miku: I thought your goal was always to send Tsukasa flying, Rui♪ KAITO: Miku, wait. Couldn't you have said that a little nicer? Miku: Oh, sorry! I was just trying to say how that's really cool! Rui: Hehe. I understand. Rui: Anyway, to continue... Rui: The protagonist, Thorpe, is a delicate creature who tends to dwell on things quite a bit... How would you all say he compares to Tsukasa? Emu: They're total opposites!! Nene: Yeah... Tsukasa usually just does whatever and isn't really bothered by much... Tsukasa: What?! I'm bothered by things just like anyone else! Rui: But that's my point. This role involves a person with the opposite personality as you, Tsukasa. I have a feeling you'll struggle to fully get into character. Rui: You excel at using your body to perform dynamic stunts. I can't say the same about expressing a character's internal struggle. Rui: We don't have much time until our next show as ambassadors, so in terms of quality... Tsukasa: No... I want to give it a try because I may struggle! Rui: What? Tsukasa: I'm sure you all remember the show we saw when we went to Riley Dream Park... Tsukasa: Through my eyes, it was an absolutely incredible spectacle. The way they balanced their dynamism with subtlety kept me on the edge of my seat... Tsukasa: It also led me to a painful realization! It showed me that I still don't have the acting ability required to captivate an audience the way they did! Rui: Tsukasa... KAITO: I remember how Tsukasa studied every move they made as we watched... Tsukasa: That's right. Just as you suggested that we take things one step at a time, I believe I've made some progress since then. Tsukasa: That's why I want to take on a new kind of role! Tsukasa: I can't just keep playing the same types of characters over and over again. Tsukasa: There's an endless number of shows out there. I'm not about to let us give up on one because I may not be able to fit into a certain role! Tsukasa: By growing as an actor, our shows will evolve while also being able to try our hand at more genres. Tsukasa: So, please! Give me a chance! Rui: ...
Rui: As the director, I believe it's my duty to put on the most fun and interesting shows possible with this troupe... Rui: With that in mind, I cannot agree to do this show. However... Rui: Tsukasa may be right... It's just as important to help each actor grow if we do wish to put on fun shows. Rui: Which means, as a director, I probably shouldn't hinder our future star from reaching his full potential... Tsukasa: ...! Emu: Does that mean we're going with this story?! Rui: Yes, let's do this show. Tsukasa: Thank you, Rui! I promise to do this role justice! Rui: Yes. Let's do our best, Tsukasa. Emu: Bye, Miku♪ Bye, you guys♪ Miku: Bye bye☆ Oh, Tsukasa, wait...!! Tsukasa: Hm? Yes, Miku? Miku: Good luck learning to play Thorpe! Miku: I really loved the way you played the piano as him, so I'm sure you'll do great! Tsukasa: Yes, that's the plan...! As a future star, I vow to put on a good performance, so just you wait!

Rui: "Let's start the audition. First up, Thorpe. Show us what you got." Tsukasa: "O-Okay...!!" Nene: Thorpe tries to play but his nerves get the better of him. Rui: "Thank you... Alright, next." Tsukasa: "Oh... Based on that reaction... I failed again..." Tsukasa: "Why does this keep happening to me...? I always practice so much but can never execute when it matters most..." Tsukasa: "No... I just have to keep trying until I get used to it! I have to learn to play in front of others..." Tsukasa: "I need to practice... Oh wow..." Tsukasa: "The stars look so beautiful tonight. That must be Antares..." Tsukasa: (No, I'm still not getting the star scene right...) Tsukasa: (How am I supposed to feel here...?) Rui: ...Transcripción

How would you all say he compares to Tsukasa? Emu: They're total opposites!! Nene: Yeah... Tsukasa usually just does whatever and isn't really bothered by much... Tsukasa: What?! I'm bothered by things just like anyone else! Rui: But that's my point. This role involves a person with the opposite personality as you, Tsukasa. I have a feeling you'll struggle to fully get into character. Rui: You excel at using your body to perform dynamic stunts. I can't say the same about expressing a character's internal struggle. Rui: We don't have much time until our next show as ambassadors, so in terms of quality... Tsukasa: No... I want to give it a try because I may struggle! Rui: What? Tsukasa: I'm sure you all remember the show we saw when we went to Riley Dream Park... Tsukasa: Through my eyes, it was an absolutely incredible spectacle. The way they balanced their dynamism with subtlety kept me on the edge of my seat... Tsukasa: It also led me to a painful realization! It showed me that I still don't have the acting ability required to captivate an audience the way they did! Rui: Tsukasa... KAITO: I remember how Tsukasa studied every move they made as we watched... Tsukasa: That's right. Just as you suggested that we take things one step at a time, I believe I've made some progress since then. Tsukasa: That's why I want to take on a new kind of role! Tsukasa: I can't just keep playing the same types of characters over and over again. Tsukasa: There's an endless number of shows out there. I'm not about to let us give up on one because I may not be able to fit into a certain role! Tsukasa: By growing as an actor, our shows will evolve while also being able to try our hand at more genres. Tsukasa: So, please! Give me a chance! Rui: ... Rui: As the director, I believe it's my duty to put on the most fun and interesting shows possible with this troupe... Rui: With that in mind, I cannot agree to do this show. However... Rui: Tsukasa may be right... It's just as important to help each actor grow if we do wish to put on fun shows. Rui: Which means, as a director, I probably shouldn't hinder our future star from reaching his full potential... Tsukasa: ...! Emu: Does that mean we're going with this story?! Rui: Yes, let's do this show. Tsukasa: Thank you, Rui! I promise to do this role justice! Rui: Yes. Let's do our best, Tsukasa. Emu: Bye, Miku♪ Bye, you guys♪ Miku: Bye bye☆ Oh, Tsukasa, wait...!! Tsukasa: Hm? Yes, Miku? Miku: Good luck learning to play Thorpe! Miku: I really loved the way you played the piano as him, so I'm sure you'll do great! Tsukasa: Yes, that's the plan...! As a future star, I vow to put on a good performance, so just you wait!

Rui: Okay, let's begin with a read-through. Some parts are going to be tricky, so let's go slow and steady with this one. Tsukasa & Emu: Yeah!
Rui: "Let's start the audition. First up, Thorpe. Show us what you got." Tsukasa: "O-Okay...!!" Nene: Thorpe tries to play but his nerves get the better of him. Rui: "Thank you... Alright, next." Tsukasa: "Oh... Based on that reaction... I failed again..." Tsukasa: "Why does this keep happening to me...? I always practice so much but can never execute when it matters most..." Tsukasa: "No... I just have to keep trying until I get used to it! I have to learn to play in front of others..." Tsukasa: "I need to practice... Oh wow..." Tsukasa: "The stars look so beautiful tonight. That must be Antares..." Tsukasa: (No, I'm still not getting the star scene right...) Tsukasa: (How am I supposed to feel here...?) Rui: ...

Rui: Okay, that's it for our read-through. How do you all feel about this...? Emu: Oh, me first! I really liked how Thorpe was able to play the piano like he wanted in the end! Nene: That's not what he's asking. He's talking about how we each feel about the way we acted. Nene: From what I saw... It wasn't bad or anything, but... Nene: After hearing what Rui said, I couldn't help but keep an eye on what Tsukasa did... He seemed different from usual... Rui: I agree. I believe we feel the same. Rui: How did you feel, Tsukasa? Tsukasa: About that. I think I also felt what you just mentioned. Something just didn't feel quite right... Tsukasa: How do I explain it...? It's like I only have a superficial grasp of this character. Emu: Hm? Superficial? What do you mean? Tsukasa: Well, that's the thing... I'm not sure I understand how this character truly feels... Rui: ... Rui: "Thorpe, how's practice going?" Nene: Wait, are you ad-libbing? Rui: "If you're trying to make a living by playing at a tavern, I have to think you're having a hard time paying rent. I wish I could help you somehow..." Tsukasa: "Th-Thank you...! Your kinds words are more than enough!" Tsukasa: No, that isn't right either... He's supposed to be lacking in confidence. He'd probably clam up in that sort of situation... Rui: This is what he meant by a "superficial grasp". He's having trouble reading between the lines. Emu: Oh, now I get it!! Rui: He's been able to capture a character's essence just based on instinct until now, but as I expected, this one may prove challenging. Rui: Mind telling us more about where you're getting stuck and how, Tsukasa? Tsukasa: Yes, I appreciate the help! First, the scene when he looks up to the stars is giving me some trouble... Rui: I see. Thorpe lacks confidence, but also seems fairly proud of himself. Even I'm having some trouble understanding him... Rui: Nene, you might have a better idea. How do you feel about this character? Nene: Wait, isn't that just a roundabout way of bad-mouthing people with pride but no confidence in themselves? Rui: Oh? I never said anything about that combination being bad. It just means you're proud of yourself but prefer to take it slow when making important decisions. Emu: Yup yup! You're always wonderhoy no matter what, Nene! Nene: Why does it feel like you're both trying to pull one over on me...? Tsukasa: Nene, I beg you! Help me figure out how Thorpe feels! Nene: *Sigh* Alright, fine... Nene: My guess is that he's stressing over producing results, but also beating himself up for being so timid. Tsukasa: I see... But he has a goal he needs to work toward, right? He doesn't have any time to mope around like this. Nene: Y-Yeah, you're not wrong! But it's not exactly easy to motivate yourself when you're in this kind of pain... Tsukasa: Hmm... This is going to require more thought... Rui: Alright, why don't we keep working on our characters as we run through some lines?
Emu: "That piano sounds so wonderful♪" Emu: "Hey, Mr. Pianist! Can you play a song for us?" Tsukasa: (Okay. Thorpe's a timid fellow, so let's try...) Tsukasa: "What the?! Who goes there?!" Rui: Stop! That's just you being you, Tsukasa! Rui: Think more about how Thorpe would actually react. Tsukasa: O-Okay! Let's try that again! Tsukasa: (I tried being timid but went a little too far... No matter. I just have to try again...!)
Rui: "Thank you, Mr. Pianist. My little brother and sister seem much better now." Emu & Nene: "Thank you!" Tsukasa: "Ah, is that so... You can leave now if you're satisfied." Tsukasa: Sorry! Can we stop things here...?! Emu: Huh? Tsukasa: Something felt off about how I replied just now... "Ah, is that so..." No, maybe... "Ah, is that so...?" Tsukasa: I can't figure it out... How would Thorpe respond in this situation...? Emu: Tsukasa... Rui: ...

Rui: Until now, I kept assigning roles to Tsukasa that I thought would help bring out his potential... Rui: His goal in life is "to become a world-famous star". In retrospect, I regret not pushing his boundaries by assigning him more challenging roles. Rui: In other words, I regret not thinking ahead more... Nene: ... Nene: (I don't believe it... This is how he's taking this situation?) Nene: (Usually, he doesn't really care as long as he got to do the shows he wanted.) Nene: (But now... It's like he genuinely cares about all of our dreams and goals in life...) Nene: But... You know there's no use crying over spilled milk, right...? Rui: Huh? Nene: Remember what you told me after what happened with me and my troupe? "You can look back all you want, but you can't change the past." Rui: Oh... Nene: That cheered me up a lot. It made me think, "That's all in the past, so I need to keep doing my best right now." Nene: So I'm gonna tell you the same thing. The past is the past. All we can do right now is believe in Tsukasa and do what we can for him. Rui: Yes, you're right... Rui: I should be coming up with hints or other ways to help him. Rui: Thank you, Nene.

Tsukasa: What do we have in common? Rui: Yes. I'd like it if you could find something you have deeply in common with Thorpe. Even just one will suffice. Emu: Will he get better if he finds one? Rui: Yes. Remember when we had Tsukasa play the Black Knight a good while back? Nene: The Black Knight...? Oh, right...
Tsukasa: "Argh!" Tsukasa: "That flash of light... What was it?!" Nene: "You remember now, don't you, Black Knight? You used to wield your sword to protect people, to keep peace." Emu: "So those shinies were his memories coming back? It looked so pretty!" Tsukasa: "You're right... I'd forgotten what was really important to me." Tsukasa: "I shall vow to only ever brandish my sword in the name of peace as I had in the past!" Rui: "The Black Knight was once again back on the righteous path and peace returned to the world." Emu: Yeah, I remember! That show we did before Halloween! Tsukasa: Ah, that's right. I definitely had trouble getting into character that time. Nene: You did? I didn't know that. Tsukasa: I hadn't played many bad guys before until that point, so I wasn't sure about how I was supposed to act... Tsukasa: Rui suggested that the Black Knight and I were similar because we both have strong wills and steadfast principles that keep us from budging. Tsukasa: Playing that role became much easier after I started taking that into consideration. Rui: And this search for commonalities is a similar exercise. Rui: Tsukasa, you seem to prefer to learn by doing or through instinct as opposed to logically analyzing a character. Rui: I believe finding something in common with your character will open quite a few doors for you in terms of imagining how to play him. Rui: And just one will suffice. One thing you think you have in common with this character. Rui: And you'll be exempt from practicing lines until you do. Rather, please refrain from doing so. Tsukasa: What?! No practicing lines?! Nene: So we have to practice without him? Emu: But he's in almost every scene. That means we won't be able to practice much, right? Rui: We can ask KAITO and the others about filling in as Thorpe. I'm sure they'll be willing to help once we explain our situation to them. Rui: I personally don't want us going into a show knowing that our lead has yet to figure out their character. Rui: In addition, practicing while in this state will likely start affecting everyone else. Rui: Which is why I want you to find some commonalities with your character, Tsukasa, and unravel this enigma. Can you do that for us...? Tsukasa: Yes! As a future star, I vow to overcome this obstacle! I guarantee that you won't be disappointed! Rui: That's our star for you. Always giving it 12,000%. We'll be looking forward to seeing some good results... Emu: I believe in you, Tsukasa! You can do it! I know you can! Nene: I agree... I'm sure you'll figure out something. Tsukasa: I will... After all, it's a star's duty to rise to any occasion! Rui: Alright, we'll leave you to it for now. In the meantime, we'll be asking KAITO to see if we can practice on his stage. Rui: Please feel free to ask us if you need any help. Tsukasa: Understood! I'll join you once I've figured out this character!
Tsukasa: Hmm... Commonalities.... What do we have in common...? Tsukasa: We're really the exact opposites of each other... It's like my grasp of this character keeps slipping away the more I read this script... Tsukasa: The smallest things bother him so much, but he knows he isn't able to play his best. And yet, he keeps looking up at the stars... Tsukasa: If I were in his shoes, I'd buck up and take this issue by the horns!! Like I'm doing now!! Tsukasa: No, hold on! Complaining won't get me anywhere! First, I need to discover what we have in common! Tsukasa: Alright, let's start again from the top! That also goes for the original novella!

Tsukasa: Yes. Rui must've already spoken with you about it. Tsukasa: I'm having so much trouble figuring out what he and I have in common. I hate to ask this, but can any of you give me some sort of hint? Tsukasa: And Rui told me that you'll be replacing me for the time being. So, how was it? What was it like being him...? KAITO: Yes, I'm happy to help. But I'm not the one playing Thorpe. You'll have to ask Miku here. Miku: Yup! That's me♪ Tsukasa: What...?! Miku, you're playing Thorpe?! But you're 180-degrees... No, 360-degrees the opposite of him! KAITO: Doesn't that mean you're right back where you started...? Regardless, yes, Miku said she wanted to give it a try. Tsukasa: Why take on this role, Miku...? Miku: Because you're trying so hard, Tsukasa! You made me want to try just as hard! Tsukasa: I see... In that case, I'd like to hear what you have to say! How did you take on the role of Thorpe? Miku: Okay, so I...
Miku: "Gwah! I only have half a day left!" Miku: "The stars! They're so beautiful!" Tsukasa: Hold on... That doesn't sound like him at all!! Miku: Yeah, Thorpe's such a tough nut to crack! Tsukasa: I feel like there's a deeper issue at hand here... I mean, this scene's about how he's trying to overcome this failing of his before the contest, right? Tsukasa: He's supposed to be in a state of total despair. Miku: What?! But I'd feel so much better by seeing those stars! Tsukasa: That's not what I'm... Hm? Tsukasa: (Feel better? After seeing those stars...? Wait, I feel like I've heard that before somewhere...) KAITO: Tsukasa? Is something the matter...? Tsukasa: Uh, no... I thought I managed to figure something out just now... Miku: What?! You did?! Tell us! Tell us! Tsukasa: Argh! Hold your horses! I'm trying to remember... KAITO: ... KAITO: You can do it, Tsukasa.

As a future star, I vow to overcome this obstacle! I guarantee that you won't be disappointed! Rui: That's our star for you. Always giving it 12,000%. We'll be looking forward to seeing some good results... Emu: I believe in you, Tsukasa! You can do it! I know you can! Nene: I agree... I'm sure you'll figure out something. Tsukasa: I will... After all, it's a star's duty to rise to any occasion! Rui: Alright, we'll leave you to it for now. In the meantime, we'll be asking KAITO to see if we can practice on his stage. Rui: Please feel free to ask us if you need any help. Tsukasa: Understood! I'll join you once I've figured out this character!
Tsukasa: Hmm... Commonalities.... What do we have in common...? Tsukasa: We're really the exact opposites of each other... It's like my grasp of this character keeps slipping away the more I read this script... Tsukasa: The smallest things bother him so much, but he knows he isn't able to play his best. And yet, he keeps looking up at the stars... Tsukasa: If I were in his shoes, I'd buck up and take this issue by the horns!! Like I'm doing now!! Tsukasa: No, hold on! Complaining won't get me anywhere! First, I need to discover what we have in common! Tsukasa: Alright, let's start again from the top! That also goes for the original novella!

Tsukasa: I still don't understand... Tsukasa: Grr... Do we actually have anything in common...? Thinking hasn't gotten me anywhere... Tsukasa: No, we must have something in common... If Rui believes so, then the answer has to be out there somewhere... Tsukasa: But a hint would be nice. An objective opinion... Tsukasa: I know...! I'll just... Wonderland SEKAI
Wonderland SEKAI
Tsukasa: Ah, there you all are...! Miku: Hey, it's Tsukasa! Tsukasaaa!*Hurried Footsteps*
KAITO: Ah, Tsukasa, good evening. We never see you here this late. Tsukasa: Sorry for the intrusion. But there's something I need to ask all of you... KAITO: Ask us? Oh, is this about playing Thorpe? Tsukasa: Yes. Rui must've already spoken with you about it. Tsukasa: I'm having so much trouble figuring out what he and I have in common. I hate to ask this, but can any of you give me some sort of hint? Tsukasa: And Rui told me that you'll be replacing me for the time being. So, how was it? What was it like being him...? KAITO: Yes, I'm happy to help. But I'm not the one playing Thorpe. You'll have to ask Miku here. Miku: Yup! That's me♪ Tsukasa: What...?! Miku, you're playing Thorpe?! But you're 180-degrees... No, 360-degrees the opposite of him! KAITO: Doesn't that mean you're right back where you started...? Regardless, yes, Miku said she wanted to give it a try. Tsukasa: Why take on this role, Miku...? Miku: Because you're trying so hard, Tsukasa! You made me want to try just as hard! Tsukasa: I see... In that case, I'd like to hear what you have to say! How did you take on the role of Thorpe? Miku: Okay, so I...
Miku: "Gwah! I only have half a day left!" Miku: "The stars! They're so beautiful!" Tsukasa: Hold on... That doesn't sound like him at all!! Miku: Yeah, Thorpe's such a tough nut to crack! Tsukasa: I feel like there's a deeper issue at hand here... I mean, this scene's about how he's trying to overcome this failing of his before the contest, right? Tsukasa: He's supposed to be in a state of total despair. Miku: What?! But I'd feel so much better by seeing those stars! Tsukasa: That's not what I'm... Hm? Tsukasa: (Feel better? After seeing those stars...? Wait, I feel like I've heard that before somewhere...) KAITO: Tsukasa? Is something the matter...? Tsukasa: Uh, no... I thought I managed to figure something out just now... Miku: What?! You did?! Tell us! Tell us! Tsukasa: Argh! Hold your horses! I'm trying to remember... KAITO: ... KAITO: You can do it, Tsukasa.

Emu: "Hey, Mr. Pianist! Can you play a song for us?" Nene: "We want to learn how to dance to a song for this party we'll be attending soon." Rui: "I don't care about your party! I'm busy! Leave me alone!" Rui: Okay, these scene seems fine... Nene: But... Is Tsukasa gonna be okay...? He's been at it for pretty long now. Rui: ... Emu: He'll be fine! I'm sure of it! Nene: Huh? Emu: Tsukasa's our super twinkly star! I know he's gonna find a way!! Rui: Yes, you're right... Thank you for that, Emu.*Footsteps*
Miku: Hi, you guys☆ Emu: Hi, Miku! Hi, KAITO! Good wonderhoy! KAITO: Hello there. I take it Tsukasa won't be practicing with us here yet... Rui: Yes... We're yet to receive word from him. KAITO: However, it seemed like he had a bit of a realization the last time he was here. Nene: What? He was here? Miku: Yup! He was trying really hard and nodding his head a lot! Rui: Hehe... That's our star for you. Rui: I'm sure he'll get through this. So let's place our faith in him and keep waiting since I believe that's all we can do for him right now. Emu & Nene: Okay!

Tsukasa: We only have a few days left until our show opens... And I'm not about to become the reason why it's going to suffer in terms of quality... Tsukasa: More importantly, a star's supposed to be able to be a shining example for others to follow! "Good enough" just isn't good enough in my book! Tsukasa: And yet, I'm unable to participate in practices right now...! All I'm doing is just...! Argh! Get it together, Tsukasa Tenma! ???: Tsukasa...? Tsukasa: Hm? That voice... Tsukasa: Toya! Fancy seeing you here all alone. You're not with Akito today? Toya: Akito unfortunately has to take supplementary classes today... But we still have to practice later as a team, so I have to go on ahead without him. Toya: Anyway, is something wrong...? You seem to have quite a bit on your mind. Tsukasa: The truth is, I'm having trouble getting into character for our next show... Toya: Getting into character...? Tsukasa: Yes. We're doing "A Pianist Named Thorpe" with me as the protagonist, but I've been holding up practices because I'm having trouble understanding my character's personality... Toya: "A Pianist Named Thorpe"...? That's a very famous story. I remember reading it over and over again because of how much I liked it. Tsukasa: What? Is that true? Wait, that means...! Tsukasa: (Toya has a talent for dissecting and understanding these kinds of stories. He's also known me for a very long time.) Tsukasa: (He might be the one who can give me a hint...!) Tsukasa: Toya, please! Will you help me with understanding my character?! Toya: What? Tsukasa: I'm currently trying to discover what Thorpe and I have in common, but so far I've had no luck... Tsukasa: However, you're familiar with both me and this story. You may be the key to solving this puzzle! Toya: What you both have in common...? Yes, I think I can help you with that. Toya: Also, I'm very interested in seeing how you portray Thorpe... Toya: Alright, why don't we find somewhere to sit down and chat? Tsukasa: Toya...! You're a model gentleman...! I promise to pay back this debt!

Toya: A very cute cafe. With many female patrons, I see. Saki: Welcome! Huh...? Tsukasa? Toya? Toya: Saki? Tsukasa: Yes, this is where Saki works! Saki: Yay! Thanks for visiting, you guys! Lemme show you to your table! Over here!*Footsteps*
*Chair Clattering*
Toya: Okay, I'll have a coffee. No milk or sugar. Tsukasa: I'll have some iced tea! Oh, can I get a lemon slice with that? Saki: Coffee and iced tea! Coming right up♪*Footsteps*
Tsukasa: Alright... Let's get down to business... Tsukasa: What do Thorpe and I have in common? Does anything come to mind? Toya: Right. Mind if I take a look at your script first? Tsukasa: Of course!!
Toya: Oh, this sounds very tricky... Toya: My impression going in was that you two didn't have much in common, but reading this script may've only made that worse... Tsukasa: You think so too, Toya...? Hmm... Even though I'm looking for just one thing... Toya: What if you took the opposite approach instead? By seeing how you both contrast, you may end up discovering some surprising commonalities. Tsukasa: Ah! That's a great idea! Let's see how we differ! Tsukasa: First... We take on challenges in remarkably different ways! Toya: I agree. In your case, Tsukasa, you like to do absolutely everything in your power to overcome an obstacle. Toya: And you wouldn't take out your frustrations on little animals like he does here. You'd probably take what needs work and keep hammering away at it. Tsukasa: Y-You think so...? I suppose you might be right... Toya: Also, you'd never turn away a sick animal. There's no way you could ever do anything cruel to someone with an illness. Toya: Tsukasa, you're also... Saki: Thanks for your patience! Here's your coffee and iced tea... Toya: ...someone who likes to stay positive and upbeat while taking charge of things. You're very honest and are quick to apologize when you think you've done something wrong. Tsukasa: Yes! That's right! Hah hah hah hah! Saki: Hey, keep it down... You're gonna embarrass me in front of everyone...
Tsukasa: In the end, we only realized just how much we differ... Toya: Yes... Fifty things at that... Tsukasa: *Sigh* I really am the polar opposite of Thorpe... Tsukasa: Especially the scene where he looks up to the stars the night before the contest. I still can't wrap my head around that... Toya: The stars...? Tsukasa: Yes. He knows the contest is creeping up on him, but his eyes wander toward the stars in the sky... I just don't understand... Toya: ... Toya: I don't think his eyes are wandering. Tsukasa: Hm? What do you mean? Toya: In this story, Thorpe looks up to the stars whenever he incurs a setback... Toya: I feel like there's a hidden meaning behind him looking up to the stars like this. Tsukasa: A hidden meaning? Such as...? Toya: That I can't really say... Toya: Setbacks... When he's facing a massive hurdle...? Tsukasa: Hang on...

Little Saki: Wow...! Little Tsukasa: How's that?! A performance fit for a star, I'd say! Mom taught me how to play that! Little Saki: That was amazing, Tsukasa! I wanna try playing "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" too! Little Tsukasa: You do?! In that case, I'll teach you! That way, we'll both be able to play it! Little Saki: Yay! You're the best, Tsukasa! Mother: Hehe. Alright, Saki, let's take it one step at a time so you can learn to play four hands with him. Little Saki: Okay! *Cough* Mother: Oh, maybe we shouldn't today... You did just get back from the hospital. Little Saki: No! I wanna play! I wanna play "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star!" Little Tsukasa: Oh... Little Tsukasa: I know...! I can teach you while you're in bed! Little Tsukasa: There are some good finger drills you can still practice, so we can give some of those a try! Little Saki: Really? Little Tsukasa: Yes, but we'll start tomorrow. For now, you need to get a good night's rest! Little Saki: Grr... Fine... Why can't it be tomorrow already? Mother: Okay, let's get you back to bed.*Footsteps*

Little Saki: *Sob* It hurts so much... Mother: Saki...?! Saki, are you okay? Father: I'll get the car! Keep an eye on her while I do. Mother: Okay...! Little Tsukasa: Good morning! Saki, let's practice... Huh? Mom, where's Saki? Mother: So... Saki came down with something last night and is at the hospital now. Little Tsukasa: What?! She's back at the hospital?! Is she okay? Mother: Yes. Fortunately, your father got word this morning that it's nothing serious. Little Tsukasa: Oh... Thank goodness... Little Tsukasa: (But that means she's gonna be really sad again...) Little Tsukasa: I wish we can play the piano together soon... Little Tsukasa: Turn here and... "Haha! I am the great hero, Pegasus! Here to vanquish all that is evil!"*Phone Ringing*
Little Tsukasa: Who could that be? Hello, this is the Tenmas! Mother: <Tsukasa, is that you? I'm sorry to disappoint you like this, but Saki still isn't feeling well so she needs to stay a little longer.> Mother: <Your father will be home soon, so please try to be patient for just a bit longer.> Little Tsukasa: Okay, got it...! I'll be good while I wait! Mother: <Hehe. Thank you for being such a wonderful big brother. We'll talk again soon.>*Beep*

Saki: Thanks for waiting! Everything okay, Tsukasa? Saki: Here, drink this! Tsukasa: S-Saki?! What is this? Water...? Saki: Toya got worried because you were staring off into space like that, so he asked for it. Tsukasa: I see... Thank you, Toya. Toya: You're welcome. But more importantly, is everything okay...? Tsukasa: Yes... I think I know what those stars mean to Thorpe now. Toya: ...! Saki: Stars? What are you talking about? Tsukasa: Oh, we were just...
Tsukasa: Wait, that's it... Saki, you were the one who said that... Saki: Huh? Said what? Tsukasa: "Seeing stars makes me feel better." Didn't you say that to me once when I visited your hospital room all those years ago? Saki: Huh? Oh, now that you mention it... Yeah, I did used to say that! Saki: Every time I felt scared... Every time I had to go in for another test or surgery, I wanted to look up at the stars... But I also got scolded a lot for staying up too late. Saki: But... Saki: I kept looking because they reminded me of all the fun things I did with Ichi and the girls, and the shows you put on for me, Tsukasa. Tsukasa: I see... The answer was right under my nose this entire time. Tsukasa: Well, I guess I still have a long way to go...! However, accepting that is always the first step towards growth! Tsukasa: Toya, Saki, thank you both very much! I believe I have a way out of this conundrum now. Toya: You do? Tsukasa: Yes, I do! You two have been a massive help. Tsukasa: Especially since talking like this reminded me of some very precious memories. I have a feeling our show is going to turn out beautifully... Toya: Really...? I'm glad I could help. Tsukasa: Me too. Again, thank you! Tsukasa: If you'd like, why don't you and your friends stop by for a showing? I promise to make it a great one!! Saki & Toya: Okay! Of course!

Saki: Toya got worried because you were staring off into space like that, so he asked for it. Tsukasa: I see... Thank you, Toya. Toya: You're welcome. But more importantly, is everything okay...? Tsukasa: Yes... I think I know what those stars mean to Thorpe now. Toya: ...! Saki: Stars? What are you talking about? Tsukasa: Oh, we were just...
Tsukasa: Wait, that's it... Saki, you were the one who said that... Saki: Huh? Said what? Tsukasa: "Seeing stars makes me feel better." Didn't you say that to me once when I visited your hospital room all those years ago? Saki: Huh? Oh, now that you mention it... Yeah, I did used to say that! Saki: Every time I felt scared... Every time I had to go in for another test or surgery, I wanted to look up at the stars... But I also got scolded a lot for staying up too late. Saki: But... Saki: I kept looking because they reminded me of all the fun things I did with Ichi and the girls, and the shows you put on for me, Tsukasa. Tsukasa: I see... The answer was right under my nose this entire time. Tsukasa: Well, I guess I still have a long way to go...! However, accepting that is always the first step towards growth! Tsukasa: Toya, Saki, thank you both very much! I believe I have a way out of this conundrum now. Toya: You do? Tsukasa: Yes, I do! You two have been a massive help. Tsukasa: Especially since talking like this reminded me of some very precious memories. I have a feeling our show is going to turn out beautifully... Toya: Really...? I'm glad I could help. Tsukasa: Me too. Again, thank you! Tsukasa: If you'd like, why don't you and your friends stop by for a showing? I promise to make it a great one!! Saki & Toya: Okay! Of course!

Emu: "Congratulations, Mr. Pianist!" Nene: "And so, the animals all celebrated Thorpe's triumph as he was welcomed in as the band's new pianist. The end." Miku: Woohoo! That was awesome♪ Emu: Thanks, Miku! Nene: But we're still missing Tsukasa... Rui: (There isn't much time left until we open...) Rui: (If we wait any longer, we won't have a chance to put a polish on our show.) Rui: (But I...) Miku: Tsukasa's gonna be fine! I'm sure of it! Nene: Miku... Tsukasa: Sorry for the delay...! Rui: ...! Tsukasa! Tsukasa: I apologize for taking so long... I'm sure I had you all worried. Tsukasa: But I finally figured out what I have in common with Thorpe and know how to get into character now! Nene & Emu: ...! Miku: See♪ Rui: Yes, you certainly had us worried there for a second, oh dear troupe leader... Rui: Anyway, are you ready...? Tsukasa: Yes! Ready whenever! Rui: Okay, let's start from the top. Rui: By the way, Tsukasa, we have everything just about nailed down, so it'll be up to you to keep everything going. Tsukasa: So be it! I feel completely invulnerable right now! Rui: Hehe. You sure sound ready! Tsukasa: But I have a suggestion regarding the part when I'm on the piano... Rui: A suggestion? Alright, let's hear it. Miku: Thank goodness Tsukasa managed to figure out how to play Thorpe!! KAITO: I'm just as glad. I think he's taken a major step towards making his dreams come true.

Toya: Ah, I see... It's usually assigned seating in here, but they made it free seating for their ambassadorial performance. Where would you like to sit, Akito? Akito: Wherever works for me. Still... I wasn't expecting them to be performing somewhere that's a two-hour train ride away. Toya: I apologize for taking time out of your day off, but I really want you to see this show since Tsukasa struggled so much with it. Akito: Yeah, I get that. Akito: Anyway, I'm just hoping for something a little more serious than the show he did for the School Festival... Akito: Hey, how about these seats? Toya: Yes, this feels like a nice distance away from the stage. Let's sit here.
Saki: We made it! Just in time too... Ichika: This place was further than I expected. I guess they really are park ambassadors since they get to perform somewhere like this. Shiho: This might be my first time seeing Tsukasa and his troupe perform outside of PXL. Honami: Not only that, Tsukasa was supposed to play the piano today. I'm really looking forward to that. Ichika: We never really got to hear him play the piano despite how many shows he used to do for us at Saki's house. Saki: Heh heh heh! That means you all get to see a really cool side of Tsukasa today! Honami: Hehe. Oh, Saki. Shiho: Hey, I think it's about to start.*Horn*
Narrator: "We will now be presenting Wonderlands×Showtime's ambassadorial performance of 'A Pianist Named Thorpe'." Saki: Hehe. I can't wait to see what it's like.
Thorpe: "*Sigh* I made it through to the final round of auditions." Thorpe: "This is it. I might actually pass this time. My usual problems shouldn't get in my way..." Bandleader: "Alright, next is... Thorpe. Whenever you're ready." Thorpe: "O-Okay...!!" Thorpe: "I can do it... I'll be fine. I just have to play like I practiced...!" Thorpe: "H-Here goes nothing...!"*Piano*
Bandleader: "Hmm... How unfortunate..." Thorpe: "Th-Thank you very much..."
Thorpe: "No...! Why does this keep happening to me...?! At this rate, I'm never going to be able to join a band...!" Toya: ... Akito: Huh...? I didn't know he could play this kind of character. Thorpe: "*Sigh*" Thorpe: "The bandleader suggested that I enter into that contest to build my courage, but how can I possibly do well if I keep freezing up when playing for just two or three people...?" Thorpe: "No, I don't have a choice... I... I want to keep playing the piano..." Shiho: Tsukasa seems different from usual... Honami: He really does... Almost like he's a completely different person...
Big Sister Squirrel: "Thank you for playing so beautifully for us, Mr. Pianist! Now, if you'll excuse us!"*Footsteps*
Thorpe: "They're finally gone. I can practice in peace now... But there might not be any point now since the contest is tomorrow." Thorpe: "*Sigh* I only have half a day left..." Thorpe: "The stars... They're so beautiful..." Tsukasa: (Thorpe at this point hasn't given up yet...) Tsukasa: (He knows he's in a desperate situation, but from the bottom of his heart, he also knows that he doesn't want to stop playing the piano...) Tsukasa: (And so, he looks up to the stars...) Tsukasa: (I'm sorry for ever saying that you lack initiative...) Tsukasa: (I understand now that you kept persevering. You kept trying despite all odds...)
Thorpe: "And it's the day of the contest. Thanks to them, I was hardly able to practice at all..." Thorpe: "The seats are... Oh, it's a full house. I'm getting dizzy just thinking about having to play in front of all of them." Thorpe: "No, I just want to..." MC: "Entry number 20! Thorpe!" Thorpe: "I just want to keep playing."
Tsukasa: (Thorpe lives to play the piano. He needs it more than anything else.) Tsukasa: (And the most important thing to me is...) Saki: Wait, this song...
Saki: Tsukasa... Akito: Hey, not bad. Toya: Yes... It's like each note's being wrapped in light. Tsukasa: (They're just like stars... This must be what Thorpe always saw dotting the sky.)*Applause*
Thorpe: "Oh no...! It's over already...?" Bandleader: "That was magnificent, Thorpe!" Thorpe: "B-Bandleader! All I did was play to the best of my abilities..." Bandleader: "Which is why it was so magnificent. The old you would've frozen up knowing that you were playing in front of so many people." Bandleader: "But look at you now. Despite playing for a full house, you maintained your focus and played the entire way through." Bandleader: "How did you practice to get this good? Could it be that you found someone to listen to you play?" Thorpe: "Oh...! Some animals visited me and...!" Thorpe: "Wait, uh... Nevermind!" Bandleader: "You sure? Anyway, the audience is calling for an encore. Mind giving us another?" Thorpe: "Yes, of course...!"*Applause*
Thorpe: "Everyone... Including my little friends... Here's my encore."*Applause*
Thorpe: "Looking back, those animals really seemed to enjoy the way I played the piano. Some danced, some twirled, some slept and some were even cured of what was ailing them..." Thorpe: "That may've been the first time anyone listened so intently to the way I played..." Thorpe: "So, thank you all very much..." Tsukasa: (Yes, Thorpe, I understand now... You have your piano and I have my shows.) Tsukasa: (Let's give everyone who's been there for us some of this light as a small token of our appreciation...) Saki: Tsukasa... He's shining so brightly...*Applause*

Emu: Yay! The crowd's smiling so much! Nene: Yeah, I think they really liked it. This means our next show's a sure thing, right? Tsukasa: Yes... However... All this fatigue is hitting me at once now... Rui: Well done, Tsukasa. You took a massive step towards making your dreams come true. As your friend and director, I couldn't be happier. Tsukasa: I appreciate it...! And it's all thanks to you and everyone, Rui! Emu: Oh, that reminds me. We should go say hi to Saki and everyone!*Hurried Footsteps*
Tsukasa: Yes, that's right!! I'll join you!!*Hurried Footsteps*
Nene: I really had my doubts, but he pulled through for us in the end... Rui: Yes, he did. That's our troupe leader for you!
Tsukasa: Alright, let's wait for them here! Hm...? Elderly Woman: Excuse me... Didn't you play the protagonist today? Are you free right now? Tsukasa: Yes, I am! How can I help you? Elderly Woman: I actually live just nearby and decided to stop by for today's show. Elderly Woman: You did such a wonderful job. It was as if the stage sparkled with light. Tsukasa: ...! Elderly Woman: I'll be rooting for you, so keep it up. Tsukasa: Thank you very much...! I really appreciate it! Tsukasa: (I don't know what to say...) Tsukasa: (This performance only became possible after asking for everyone's help, and I'm the one being praised.) Tsukasa: (Plus, I was able to tap the memories from when I was little, including the pain and sadness I felt, in order to play this role. I couldn't be happier...) Tsukasa: (And to keep growing as an actor, I want to keep experiencing more and more new things.) Tsukasa: Alrighty then...!! I vow to keep learning as much as I can and become a true star!! Saki's Voice: Hey, that voice... It's Tsukasa! Tsukasa: Ah, that must be Saki I'm hearing...! Saki!!*Hurried Footsteps*
Miku: <Up, up, up we go...! Oh, Tsukasa's talking with his friends!>*Hologram Appearing*
KAITO: <Be careful, Miku. What if someone sees you peeking out of his phone?> Miku: <No, I wanna congratulate Tsukasa too!> KAITO: <Hehe. I understand how you feel, but that may have to wait until later...> Tsukasa's Voice: Thank you for coming!! Allow me to show you my appreciation as a future star!! Miku: <Hehe...!! Good for you, Tsukasa☆>Transcripción
