[A3!] ★ Main Story | Act 14 - DREAM CATCHER | Episode 8 - An Encounter

Kumon: I can’t wait to see Sumi-san’s performance~.

Izumi: I’m glad we’re able to go and see it before it’s over since they’re nearing the finale and all.

*Tires screech*

Kumon: A taxi…?

*Car door opens*

Tenma: Sorry I’m late.

Kumon: Good work! There’s still time before the show starts, so you’re all good.

Izumi: Was work busy today, Tenma-kun?

Tenma: Nah, I wasn’t working today…

Izumi: ?

Kumon: I bought a whole supply of triangles! They were doing a Kyoto fair thing at the store, so I got a bunch of different kinds of yatsuhashi~. (1)

Kumon: I’ve got anko, cinnamon, matcha, chocolate, strawberry, banana, curry--.

Tenma: That’s way too much! Wait, is there really such a thing as a curry one…?

Izumi: What should we do? I know it’s a little early, but should we just head to the theater?

Tenma: Since it’s almost the finale, why don’t we get a bouquet?

Kumon: I wonder if they’ve got any triangle flowers or something.

Tenma: They don’t.

Izumi: Ah, if we’re looking for a florist, I know just the place.

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Izumi: Hello.

Towa: Welco-- Wait, SUMMER TROUPE!?!?

Towa: Huh, what are S-Summer Troupe’s Tenma-kun and Kumon-kun doing here!?

Izumi: You know Towa-kun, the Spring Troupe fan I’ve mentioned before? This shop is owned by his aunt.

Tenma: I see, so this is the one you were talking about…

Kumon: Hello~!

Towa: H-H-H-Hello!

Kumon: Okay, so, we’re going to see Sumi-san’s performance now, and we wanna bring him a bouquet as a gift, but--.

Towa: Ah! Misumi-san’s the one who likes triangles, right!?

Tenma: You sure got to the point fast…

Towa: My aunt’s not here right now, so all I have is the bouquets on display, but if that’s okay, then…

Towa: I think this bouquet with yellow dahlias as the main flower matches Misumi-san’s vibe.

Kumon: Yeah, yeah, it’s perfect! It’s super Sumi-san-core!

Tenma: Nice job.

Izumi: Then we’ll go with this one.

Towa: And take a look at this! The paper bag is a triangle!

Kumon: Whoa…!

Towa: It’s just a paper bag so you can hold the bouquet without crushing it, but I thought it’d be perfect for Misumi-san…!

Izumi: It truly is a perfect choice. Thank you, Towa-kun.

Towa: No, I should be thanking you! I’ll have it ready in a minute!

Izumi: By the way, how are things going with your troupe? Does it seem like you’re getting any members?

Towa: I… Tried asking my friends, but they weren’t really…

Towa: Some of them said no because they weren’t interested, while others who were originally interested in theater have already joined other troupes…

Kumon: The more new troupes popped up, the more new members got recruited, huh~.

Towa: I feel like I completely missed the wave.

Izumi: I see…

Izumi: (I’d love to help, but I don’t have anyone who fits the bill in mind…)

Ibuki: Heyyy. Dozono Shoten, hereeee.

Izumi: Huh?

Kumon: What!? Ibukichi!?

Ibuki: What’s with you being all over the place suddenly? Does MANKAI Company just lurk everywhere around here?

Towa: That’s not true!!! It’s something rare!!! Seeing them isn’t something that simple!

Towa: And I shouldn’t get used to being this happy either. I need to remember back when I was in middle school when I was just happy to be able to see them through a screen…

Towa: I’ve been so lucky since I moved here that I forgot all about that. I’d better not take this for granted, or else karma will catch up with me.

Izumi: Never change, Towa-kun.

Kumon: I know what you are! You’re like a die-hard fan, right?

Ibuki: I’m getting like a crazy sense of déjà vu right now. What kanji are in your name again?

Towa: “To” like peach and “wa” like peace, but…

Ibuki: Ah--.

Towa: ?

Tenma: By the way, did you say Dozono Shoten?

Ibuki: Yeah, I’m here to deliver for a grocer called Dozono Shoten. BTW, my IRL name’s Ibuki Dozono.

Ibuki: Daddy loves making Ibuki work real hard all ‘cause he’s got a bad back~.

Kumon: Who would’ve thought Ibukichi’s family runs a grocery store…!?

Tenma: It is pretty surprising…

Towa: U-Umm, so you’re Ibuki-kun? And you know about MANKAI Company, right?

Towa: So are you, maybe like, interested in theater, or…?

Ibuki: What? Hell no.

Towa: Figures…

Izumi: Were you trying to recruit them for your troupe?

Towa: Yeah…

Tenma: This whole one-track mind thing is sounding a lot like someone else we know.

Ibuki: Towa, if you could just sign the receipt for me~.

Towa: Okay…

Ibuki: Well, later, I’ve still got deliveries to make.

*Ibuki runs off*

Towa: Haaah…

Izumi: (Now that I think about it, how did Ibuki-kun know about MANKAI Company if they have no interest in theater?)

A3! Main Story: Part 4 - Act 16: Crossing Paths - Episode 12: The Four's Starting Line

[Door opening]

Towa: Hello!

Ibuki: Heyaa.

Keiku: Sup.

Kureha: Excuse us.

Izumi: Welcome.

Guy: You’re all here.

Yuki: Why?

Homare: As Kureha-kun did not have Towa-kun’s contact details, we arranged for the four of them to meet up here.

Tenma: That’s fine and all, but why at MANKAI dorm?

Yuki: Couldn’t you have just have them meet at a café?

Homare: It is much more convenient here! Now, Kureha-kun, was there not something you wanted to tell Towa-kun?

Towa: What, what?

Ibuki: Uh, I think it’s obvious.

Kureha: I’ll join your troupe.

Towa: What!? Really!?

Towa: I’M SO HAPPY!! WE’RE FINALLY FOUR!! I look forward to working with you from now on!

Ibuki: And now we’re finally four.

Keiku: Nice.

Izumi: Congratulations on gathering four members.

Towa: We gotta report this to Tsuzuru-san, and also submit our entry!

Tenma: Ah, so that’s why you had them gather here.

Homare: That is precisely it.

Banri: That’s a convenient way to finish your event missions.

Towa: That being said, Tsuzuru-san, we’re four members now!

Tsuzuru: Good for you. Alright then, we should have a short meeting about the script after this.

Towa: Okay!

Keiku: Uh, what’s that entry thing about?

Ibuki: ^ This. Ibuki’s curious too.

Towa: Huh… Did I never mention it? There’s a rookie bracket in the Fleur Cup.

Towa: Rookies won’t get nominated for the Fleur Cup, but if they’re selected, they’ll be specially trained by Yukio Tachibana!

Izumi: Huh!? Since when is that a thing…?

Ibuki: Who’s Yukio Tachibana?

Keiku: Dunno.

Kureha: Hmmm, I feel like I’ve heard of him, but maybe not…

Towa: He was the general director for the original MANKAI Company! And he’s also a member of the New Fleur Award’s board of directors!

Keiku: Huuuh?

Ibuki: Oh, it’s fr. It’s right there on the official site.

Kureha: There’s also prize money? I didn’t know that.

Banri: So it’ll be kinda like Yukio-san’s development group.

Izumi: I was so focused on the Fleur Cup that I completely missed it.

Tasuku: Well, getting guidance from an experienced director will definitely work to your advantage in the future.

Tsumugi: Putting on a play also costs money, so the prize money will probably be of help, too.

Izumi: Good luck.

Towa: Thank you!! The entry deadline is today, so I’ll hurry and get us registered…

Ibuki: Talk about cutting it close.

Towa: My heart was going crazy thinking we wouldn’t make it in time~

Kureha: Does that mean you wouldn’t have been able to participate if I had been even a day slower?

Yuki: You could’ve just lied about the number and entered.

Towa: I had faith he’d make it in time!

Ibuki: That’s what you call wishful thinking.

Kureha: I also felt like this was pretty much the fate set out for us. 

Keiku: Here’s the weirdo-off.

Towa: Oh, yeah! We need to decide on a name…!

Izumi: You thought of that now!?

Tenma: You really should’ve done that sooner…

Towa: I wanted all four of us to decide together! What should I do!? What do I make it!?

Ibuki: This is way too sudden.

Keiku: Slap a (TBD) in there.

Kureha: That seems a bit too on the nose.

Towa: Ummm, uhhh… Um, does anyone have any ideas!?

Tasuku: A troupe name, huh…

Azuma: MANKAI Company was called that from the start.

Homare: If you’d like something simple, how does taking the first character from each of your names sound?

Ibuki: That’s more idol than theater troupe.

Homare: Hum…

Tsumugi: Then, how about switching it up a little… Maybe use your favorite food instead of your names?

Towa: Our favorite food… Mine’s rice!

Ibuki: Potatoes FTW.

Keiku: Cake.

Kureha: I like all sweets in general, but maybe Western ones best?

Hisoka: Marshmallows…

Tasuku: Don’t just butt in.

Towa: Then, if we were to put all these in English… RPCSM?

Keiku: Don’t need the M.

Izumi: The M is for MANKAI Company!

Kureha: RPCS…

Ibuki: Not even rearranging them can save this.

Keiku: How ‘bout throwing some Japanese in there.

Kureha: Putting the Japanese for rice and potatoes there instead would give us… KICS?

Towa: It’s easy to read! And cool!

Ibuki: It’s Kome-Imo-Cake-Sweets, though.

Keiku: Bit lame.

Kureha: But I think it suits us.

Towa: It’s decided, then! Yay! Now to finish our application…

Kureha: (… Talking like this with them, I can see it. Not only Towa-kun, but the other two as well…)

Kureha: (I actually wasn’t planning on ever meeting them in person. I guess I won’t talk about it for now.)

Towa: I’ve finished the application!

Izumi: Congratulations.

Tsuzuru: Now that you’ve got a name, you’re as real a theater troupe as any.

Homare: Do your best.

Towa: Thank you very much! We will!
