Fujiwara
This map says there should be a big sign just up ahead. Want me to run ahead to look?
Yamaguchi
No, stop! We don't want to cause the locals any trouble! This city's a place of taste and elegance. Some kid from who knows where running around is the opposite of those things.
Yamaguchi
Also, there should be others who chose this workshop. If worst comes to worst and we get lost, we can just try getting ahold of one of them...
Tanaka
I know, right? You're the same during matches. That's why the coach and the captain are always giving you an earful.
Yamaguchi
Wh-What does club have to do with this?! Guys, we're on our school trip! Let's talk about our teacups! Have you guys already decided how you're gonna make yours?

Yamaguchi
A design?
Fujiwara, Tanaka & Yamaguchi
...
Yamaguchi
Really? We're speechless for the opposite reason.
Fujiwara
Tenma, try reading the description of this activity for us again...
Fujiwara
Yeah, a wheel.
Tanaka
How are you gonna turn something that's spinning into a star?
Tsukasa
Hah! I will not be foiled so easily!
See? “Our ceramicist will guide you to creating your desired shape.”

Yamaguchi
I think a star is taking that too far...
Fujiwara
I feel bad for the ceramicist...
Tanaka
Let's just make some normal-looking ones.
Fujiwara & Yamaguchi
Yeah...
Fujiwara's Voice
Hey, check it out.
Mine turned out pretty well.

Tanaka's Voice
Yeah, it looks really good!
Mine's sorta starting to look like a flower vase...

Yamaguchi's Voice
I think that makes it unique.
I mean, it definitely looks more like a teacup than what Tenma has.

Tsukasa's Voice
Noooooo!
My teacup! I finally made a neat point, and now I have to start over again!

Tsukasa's Voice
I must've spun it too fast this time. I should slow it down a bit and be more careful...
Tanaka's Voice
Honestly, Tenma, you probably shouldn't be using a wheel at all...
Tsukasa's Voice
But that would defeat the purpose of this activity! I refuse to surrender!
Ceramicist
We'll take the teacups you all made and prepare them to be fired in our kiln. I hope you're all looking forward to seeing how they turn out.

Fujiwara, Tanaka & Yamaguchi
Thank you!

Tsukasa
This really was a wonderful experience.
They said it's going to take two weeks until they're finished, yes?
They said it's going to take two weeks until they're finished, yes?
Fujiwara
Yeah, because they have to wait for them to dry before they can be fired. After that, they have to mail them out.
Tsukasa
Then, I'll eagerly be awaiting the arrival of the world's one-and-only teacup made by yours truly to see how it turned out!
Yamaguchi
None of us were expecting you to actually make a star-shaped teacup. The look on that ceramicist's face when you showed them your sketch...
Tanaka
I mean, how are you actually gonna drink out of that?
Fujiwara
The nice thing about a round teacup is that you have 360 whole degrees available to you.
Yamaguchi
Haha! You know logic doesn't work on Tenma!
Tsukasa
Oh? You make fun of someone else's work, but what about your own teacups? Did they turn out the way you wanted? Some of you finished very early...
Fujiwara
Because it wasn't actually that hard to do it normally.
Tanaka
Anyway, due to someone taking more time than expected to make his teacup, we don't have much time before we need to meet back up with everyone else.
Fujiwara
No, we still have time for lunch.
Plus, the workshop was within earshot of the inn.

Tsukasa
True. Then, let's grab some lunch and go for a walk around this area as scheduled.
Yamaguchi
Yeah! Oh, we should see what snacks are available along the way!
Yamaguchi
No, for after we head back to the inn.
Tsukasa
Ah, I see. But try not to eat too much. You wouldn't want to spoil your appetite before dinner.
Yamaguchi
Relax, Mom, I won't!
