I was also looking for books that include actual scripts, though. I wanted some examples to help me come up with scenes and decide how to present them.

The screenplay for “The Hundred Private Eyes”? And these are assorted collections for “The Flavor of Flounder” and “Mololo From Across The Street”.
Toya
That may be because they're not on the same shelf as the reference guides. I might actually bring this matter up during our next committee meeting...
Nene
Thanks for getting these for me...
I'm on the library committee now too, for crying out loud. I feel so embarrassed about not being able to find these...

Toya
You just joined, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. You still have plenty of time to learn where everything is.
Toya
Yes, we'll be performing a dance routine. Akiyama and I are both in charge of making the costumes.
Toya
I've never really sewed anything before...
But my classmates have been teaching me as I go.

That reminds me. They gave me some tips on how to tie thread knots. I'm still practicing, but I should be able to master it soon.

(Wow, the books Aoyagi found for me have helped so much. I have a somewhat better idea of what I want our film to be like now...)
Nene
(But I still need to come up with the actual story and the characters. I'm leaning towards making the protagonist some sort of wanderer... I also need to come up with some enemies, and a reason to fight them...)
Nene
(This is really hard.
I don't have experience coming up with stories that involve lots of action.)

A tearjerker, something sci-fi...
Oh, an ad for her family's restaurant... I probably shouldn't consider that one.

(The list goes on, but I'll need to think about them carefully since I probably can't include them all.)
Nene
(I didn't realize coming up with a story from scratch would be this difficult. I should've helped Tsukasa and the others more when they were writing theirs...)
Nene
(I think I'll head over to SEKAI. I'm not gonna come up with any good ideas while feeling stuck inside my room...)

You're in charge of bringing everyone's ideas together and leading them in the right direction...
That's so wonderful.
That's so wonderful.
Miku
Yeah, it is☆
You've got a good head on those shoulders, Nene, so I'm sure you'll do an amazing job as the director!

Male Students
Wait, can't we just do all of them?!
Nene
Things got really out of hand, which made me wonder how I'm going to do as the director...
Nene
To be fair, there isn't much I can do since me and the others in my class have exactly opposite personalities...
Nene
So, um... Most of them have really cheerful personalities. And they're so outgoing... Basically everything that I'm not.
Nene
I feel this sort of wall between us since I don't really know how to deal with them...
Len
Yeah. She feels that there's a wall between her and them because she's the opposite kind of person!
Len
I don't know what they're like...
But I don't think personalities have anything to do with this wall you're talking about.

Hehe. That's right!
Sometimes, people form bonds and friendships with one another before they have a chance to think about it.

But it didn't take long for me to realize that they both had dreams they were working hard to make come true...

They all have their hopes and dreams...
They all like this and that, have their share of troubles and feel a variety of emotions...

So, I'm supposed to write the screenplay for our movie, but I'm having trouble coming up with good ideas...

A hero who helps those in need and fights to protect them... A hero who doesn't give up! Even when fighting against a really tough opponent!
Miku
Then, the protagonist needs to be cool like that...
After that, all you have to do is start mixing in all your classmates' ideas, right?

You have “sci-fi” and “an ad for her family's restaurant” written here. Your story could take place far in the future... And the hero could be a cook! Who fights!
