Really? He's feeling mischievous?
I totally thought Ushiwakamaru was just having a lot of fun battling against Benkei.

Yes, I agree that you might want to make things easier for the audience. What if you paused for a moment in order to size up your opponent...?

(As Benkei realizes that Ushiwakamaru isn't taking him seriously, he starts swinging faster and faster.)

“Well, that was a bit of an ordeal...

“I have no interest in restoring the Minamoto clan to its former glory, but making a plaything of brutes such as yourself is all too enticing.”
Emu
“Your name is Benkei, correct...?
Come with me. You will surely enjoy what we are going to see together.”

Emu
(What it's like to be a member of the audience going to see a show. When they smile, when they cry, when they laugh...)
Kijima
Alright, so... That concludes this rendition of Ushiwakamaru, Wonderlands×Showtime!
Kijima
Yeah, I have no complaints regarding your acting skills! And you all put in an incredible amount of effort this past month!
Rui
Hehe. We probably wouldn't have been able to achieve this result if it weren't for all your hard work, Emu.
