Rin
Yeah. Their practices sound really tough, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how she plays Ushiwakamaru♪
Len
The samurai help people along the way and battle against the big, bad ogre... Sounds like a fun and exciting show!
KAITO
The three of us will be the ones primarily involved in those scenes, MEIKO, Len, so let's try practicing together.
*Thwack*
KAITO
Well, how about the scene where my character comes face to face with the ogre for the very first time...?
Len
(And nothing like what I just did... Is this what a sword fight in a historical drama's supposed to feel like?)
KAITO
Phew... Nice work. The tension we created was good, but I feel like we can make things feel more dynamic by using more space...
Len
That tension in the air. That sense of one false step and you're done for. You guys had my heart racing!
KAITO
Between staring your opponent down and making very subtle movements, many different techniques go into making a fight like this look real.
MEIKO
Yes! If he wants to learn how to put on a convincing sword fight, then he'll need to master the right etiquette and techniques!
MEIKO
For example, practicing your downswing over and over or learning how to change your stance based on what your opponent does. Also, meditating while sitting in the correct position!
MEIKO
As you get used to holding a sword and learn what to do during the periods of brief calm, your sword fighting skills should start naturally improving.

Narrator
"We find a kind boy working hard on his sword fighting skills, but his timid nature prevents him from improving."
Narrator
"Then, his older brother, a swordsman confident in his own skills, sees this and makes a declaration."
Big Brother
"Rumor has it that there's one two villages over causing quite a bit of trouble. It'll be a great way to test our skills!"
Bandit
"Put all your valuables on the ground and leave!"
*Running Footsteps*
*Whoosh*
*Rustle*
*Running Footsteps*
Narrator
"Our two brothers continue their journey as the villagers thank them for their heroism along the way."
Narrator
"And the boy, who started out so timid, began to feel all this courage welling up inside of him."
Narrator
"Finally, they arrive at their destination. The mountain where the ogre is rumored to dwell..."
Burly Ogre
"Well met. I have been watching what you have both been doing from up here. You are heroes to those villagers, but do you have the skills to match...?"
Both Brothers
"..."
*Thwack*
*Whoosh*
*Crash*
Len
(This is my chance to shine. This is where the protagonist stops being a coward and works up the courage to fight.)
Little Brother
"I've spent my life until now watching my big brother become a strong swordsman! Now it's my turn!"
Len
(First, we stay completely silent in order to build up the anticipation. Give Tsukasa and the others a chance to get on the edge of their seats.)
*Thwack*
*Whoosh*
*Thwack*
*Rustle*
*Whoosh*
Big Brother & Burly Ogre
"...!"
*Rustle*
*Thwack*
Tsukasa
I agree. The way you kept barely dodging the ogre's attacks... I gulped each time you and MEIKO made a move!
Rui
I think we were all impressed considering how complicated that fight was. You must've practiced it quite a lot.
MEIKO
I mean, our final showdown went as well as it did because you were able to move in perfect sync with me!
KAITO
You've been thanking us, but I believe our show succeeded in the end because you worked so hard.
Len
(The staredowns, the buildup of anticipation, the sense that it'll all be over in a split second...)
