Wonder Stage

Emu
Hm? You're gonna go buy some stuff?
2
Rui
Yes, we need more flower confetti.
Our show tomorrow will fall short of being perfect without it.
3
Tsukasa
Asahi and I will be tagging along.
So, it'll be up to you two to make sure everything is put away and cleaned up.
4
Nene
Okay. Good luck, you guys.
5
Tsukasa
Thank you!
6
Emu
Alright, let's start checking!
7
ArcLand Cast Member A
Thanks, you two! Nice work today!
8
ArcLand Cast Member B
Tomorrow's our big day. Let's give everyone an amazing show!
9
Emu
Yeah, let's do our best!
10
ArcLand Cast Member C
Yes, let's!
But for now, everyone, please get home safe!
11
Emu
Okay♪
Let's go, Nene.
12
Nene
Okay.
13
Emu
One month flew by sooo fast.
14
Nene
Yeah, it did... We really did a lot too.
15
Emu
Yup yup! And everyone was so nice!
16
Nene
Yeah. They're all amazing actors, but not snobbish at all. And they were willing to teach us a bunch of stuff...
17
Nene
They showed a lot of interest in Rui's ideas too. In that sense, they seem really open-minded.
18
Emu
Yeah☆ Oh, remember how we did some improv before we started practicing? That was really fun♪
19
Nene
Yeah. It was meant to be a quick exercise to help us get to know each other and see what our acting styles are like, right?
20
Emu
Rui, Rui, can we get started?
21
Rui
Yes, go right on ahead.
22
Emu
Okay...
23
Emu
“Wow☆ Everyone, look over there!
It's a great big gingerbread castle!”
24
Tsukasa
She dove straight into the deep end...
25
Nene
Yes, but I'd expect no less from Emu.
26
Tsukasa
Alright, I guess we should step in since we know her style the best out of...
27
Asahi
“Yes, it's gigantic!
I'd love to see what's inside!”
28
ArcLand Cast Member A
“Yeah! But where's the entrance?”
29
ArcLand Cast Member B
“Oh... Is it that?
Look, it's a door made of chocolate!”
30
ArcLand Cast Member C
“It has to be! Hmm...
This looks like a doorknob... Let's try turning it... Like this!”
31
Asahi
“Hey, hang on! If you turn it like that...! See! Now look what you've done! You broke it!”
32
ArcLand Cast Member C
“Wh-What was I supposed to do?
It's not my fault that it's made of chocolate!”
33
Emu
“But... Hm? Oh! It smells so yummy!
Now we know that it's real chocolate!”
34
Emu
“Hey, can I have half of that?
All this work is making me hungry♪”
35
ArcLand Cast Member C
“Sure, just give me one second.
Let's see if I can split it nicely...”
36
Rui
Tsukasa, Nene...
Please don't stand there looking dumbfounded, and try to join in.
37
Nene
Agreeing to give Rui's ideas a chance was one thing, but they didn't even hesitate when it came to going along with what you were doing. I honestly can't believe it.
38
Nene
Not only that, they came up with fun ways to complete the story while clearly presenting what their characters were like.
39
Emu
Yeah, that was so much fun!
40
Emu
Oh, I really liked the story about chasing the rabbit on the moon! The story about dancing with jellyfish too!
41
Emu
*Sigh*
But it's all over now...
42
Nene
Yeah, I'm a little sad too.
It sort of ended just as we were really starting to get to know each other.
43
Emu
But we can't stay sad forever since we have to do our show tomorrow!
44
Emu
Let's do our best to turn our frowns upside down!
45
Nene
Yeah, you're right.
46
Nene
We practiced a ton in order to make sure we put on an incredible show.
47
Emu
That's the spirit, Nene!
Let's do our absolute super duper best to make that happen!
48
Nene
Yeah!
