Please read alongside listening to the drama track on Youtube.

Let me know if I missed something!

TL note:

It’s tough being a man… is the title of a Japanese film series where the actor Kiyoshi Atsumi plays the role of the beloved “Tora-san”, a kind-hearted vagabond who is always unlucky in love. This is what Fumiya refers to when he goes like “Ah! Tora-san!”. Wikipedia article here.

Nakagami: ……..

Nakagami: (I lost everything.)

Nakagami: (I haven’t achieved anything once again, have I.)

Nakagami: (This is the world of a normie, huh…)

Nakagami: (And right as I was about to give it all up)

(Phone rining)

Nakagami: (I received a phone call from my former subordinate.) 

Torahime: “Sensei, where do you think I am now?”

Torahime: “I’m inside the Charisma House.”

Nakagami: !?

Nakagami: (Cha…charisma…)

Nakagami: (That’s right, it’s all this country- No, all that I have.)

Nakagami: (This is a critical moment.)

Nakagami: (Stick your beliefs…! Nakagami Soemon!)

Nakagami: Nicely done, conceal your identity and remain there.

Nakagami: You’ll be contacted by me in due time concerning the next plan of action.

Torahime: I’m glad… I believe you're in the right, Sensei. 

Torahime: I’ll be reporting on every single detail regarding them and how they’re doing.

Torahime: Leave the Charisma Observation to this very Torahime!

Nakagami: Yes, I entrust it to you.

Nakagami: (Is what we had spoken about, however…)

(Sounds of things falling over, getting broken and being smashed)

(Sarukawa and Terra beefing with each other)

(Amahiko chasing after Ohse)

Amahiko: Ohse-saaaaan!!!

Ohse: WAAAAAAH!!

(PIIIIIII)

Rikai: NO RUNNING IN THE HALLWAY!!!

(Fumiya nonchalantly riding his moped inside)

Iori: EEEH!? Fumiya-san why are you riding your bike inside the house!?

Fumiya: I can’t? Why?

Rikai: Obviously you can’t! STOOOP!!

(Everyone throwing a fuss over Fumiya’s moped)

Everyone: WAAAAAAAAH….!!!

Nakagami: “Hello? What’s wrong Torajirou-kun. Is something happening?”

Nakagami: “Hello? Helloooooo!”

Torahime: What is this…. Is this something that’s actually happening in reality…?

Iori: Watch out!

Torahime: Eh?

(The seven of them riding the moped and charging full speed ahead)

Everyone: AAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Torahime: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

(BANG)

Amahiko: ECSTASYYYYYYYYYYY~!

Nakagami: “Hello? HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”

(Torahime laying down on the sofa)

Torahime: Uuughhh….

Iori: Are you okay?

Rikai: I’m truly sorry. This is how it’s usually like in our home…

Torahime: (Eeeh~... What kinda household is this…)

Iori: We let him get hurt again, Rikai-kun

Iori: Should we let him stay a little while longer until he gets better?

Rikai: ….

Torahime: (That’s right! Considering the job that Sensei left in my hands, this actually works out in my favor.)

Torahime: (It’s a convenient excuse to stay another night here.)

Torahime: (As long as I don’t reveal my identity I can make it work, I am the assistant of the great Nakagami sensei after all!)

Torahime: (Not a chance that this crazy bunch can find out the truth!)

Terra: Hey, you dropped your phone

Torahima: (Aaaah! Crap!)

Terra: You were talking to someone, right, everything ok?

Torahime: (He saw me! Crap!!!)

Torahime: ….! Ah, no…! It’s just…!

Sarukawa: Haah? Why aren’tcha spitting it out

Terra: Shady

Iori: The person you were talking to… could it be…

Torahime: (Hyeh!)

Iori: Your girlfriend?

Torahime: Eh?

Iori & Terra: KYAAAAA!!!!

Iori: He’s shaking! It’s so gotta be OMG!

Terra: He was talking to his lover!

Fumiya: What’s this what’s this

Amahiko: What happened

Iori: Like, listen here, this guy was talking to his girlfriend on the phone!

Rikai: G-g-g-g-g-g-girlfriend!?

(PIIIIIIIIIIII)

Torahime: …Eh, you’re wrong. It’s not that. You’re mistaken, I don’t have one. 

(Everyone gripping Torahime while firing off questions)

Torahime: Wah, ouch ouch ouch!

Torahime: I’m injured!!! Wait! AAA!! AAAAAAA!!

Torahime: (What the hell!? Even though I’m saved!)

Fumiya: Ah, right, we haven’t asked for your name yet

Rikai: That’s true. I’m so sorry, we were all over the place. 

Amahiko: What is your name? 

Torahime: My name’s Tora-

The six of them: ?

Sarukawa: Tora? What is it

Torahime: (Crap, real name would be bad.)

Torahime: To, Tora… Tora….

The six of them: !?

Torahime: It’s Torajirou!

The six of them: TORAJIROU!?

Fumiya: Hm, where have I heard it before…

Torahime: (EEEH!? Don’t tell me he knows!? Did he seriously already hear it somewhere!?

Fumiya: Gotta be Tora-san

Torahime: Ueh?

Fumiya: Torajirou’s like the same name as vagabond Tora-san, right!

The six of them: OOOOOH!!! TORAJIROU!!!!!!!

(All of them jostle Torahime)

Torahime: Ah, it hurts, ouch! Wa-wait! AAAA! AAAAAAAAA!!!

Torahime: (Seriously what the hell!? Even though I’m saved!)

(Sound of a plastic bag)

Rikai: Ah, Ohse-kun, come over here, you haven’t greeted him yet, right?

(Ohse tries to run away)

Rikai: No running away now

(Rikai takes off the bag from Ohse’s head)

Ohse: !!

Rikai: Okay, now make proper eye contact with him.

Ohse: Ni…nice to meet you, I’m a shitty sore loser.

Terra: C’mon

Ohse: I’m Minato, sorry for polluting your vision. 

Torahime: …Ah, yeah

Ohse: Eh?

Terra: ? What’s wrong, Ghost-kun

Ohse: …..

Torahime: Aaaaaaaah then that’s enough for me, sorry everyone gonna rest up real nice in my room

Iori: Eh? Are you okay?

Torahime: Absolutely not okay!

The six of them: Ooooh, you sure you can do this? Don’t force yourself please

Torahime: Phew…

Ohse: ….

Terra: Anyway, let’s start prepping

Rikai: Preparing? For what?

Terra: For the Halloween party!

Fumiya: Yeah, the costume contest

Terra: Yep! Everyone’s joining, right?

Rikai: Do we really have to do this?

Terra: Of course we do~ It’s fun~ Well, Terra-kun’s gonna win no matter what though, ehehe☆

Amahiko: Terra-san, what will your outfit be this year?

Terra: A princess!

Amahiko: Waow

Fumiya: Wonder what I should wear

Sarukawa: Be a prisoner

Fumiya: Why

Amahiko: Amahiko won't cut any corners

Amahiko: A new performance that I wasn’t able to show at the Sexy Cup, do look forward to it!

Iori: You’re disqualified.

Amahiko: EEEH!?

Rikai: What kind of costume will you do, Iori-san?

Iori: Slave

Rikai: EEEH!?

Fumiya: You, Ohse?

Ohse: It’s a secret

Fumiya: Wah, seems like you got something dreadful up your sleeve

Ohse: Fufufu

Amahiko: Rikai-san, and you?

Rikai: This is referred to as cosplay right… How embarrassing…

Amahiko: ECSTASYYYYYYYYY!

Terra: What about Sarukawa-kun?

Sarukawa: Ain’t gonna do it, stupid! Halloween my ass, shit’s lame

Terra: Everyone’s participating!

Sarukawa: I won’t

Terra: You totally will!

Fumiya: Hmmm, but making a costume’s hard. What to do

Iori: Fumiya-san! Leave it to me!

Terra: Ah, that’s off the table, no helping others.

Iori: Eeeh~

Fumiya: Then, if it’s not from anyone here, can I get help from somewhere else?

Terra: Hm, in that case, sure.

(Fumiya leaving)

Fumiya: Alrighty

The six of them: ?

Sarukawa: Ah, that’s what he meant! That’s not fair, dude!

Rikai: Fumiya-san!

Torahime: ……I’m kind of seriously exhausted… I should rest a bit

The seven of them: Tora-saaaaaaan!

Torahime: ?

(They all march in)

Torahime: Ooh, ooh, woah, what is it? What!?

(Torahime being jostled)

Torahime: Ouch ouch it hurts! I’m still injured! 

Torahime: Wait, this is dangerous! Wah, wah, wah-

(Torahime rolling off the stairs)

Torahime: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

(Torahime smashing into the handrails and wall) 

Torahime: GAH! AH! BWEH! GOH! GAH! UUGHGHYEUGH!!!

Everyone: TORA-SAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!

Nakagami: Hahaha! Ahahahahaha!

Torahime: “Sensei, this is no laughing matter. It was really awful.”

Nakagami: As expected from the Charisma’s, good that they’re full of energy.

Torahime: “I almost dies three times.”

Nakagami: “Any injuries?”

Torahime: “I’m full of them, my whole body hurts.”

Nakagami: “No, not you, I was asking if the Charisma’s were hurt.”

Torahime: “Eeh!?”

Nakagami: ?

Torahime: “Ah… no… I think they’re fine.”

Nakagami: ….

Nakagami: They’re the hope of our country, I’m glad they’re safe.

Torahime: “....That’s… nice…. yes.”

Nakagami: “Did your identity get revealed?”

Torahime: “No worries on that part, other people don’t remember my face at all, so.” 

Nakagami: That said…  we have met them face to face before.

Torahime: “Then Sensei, do you remember what I look like?”

Nakagami: Eh…  

Nakagami: ….

Nakagami: My apologies

Torahime: “It’s fine, Sensei! I totally don’t mind at all!”

Torahime: “If anything it’s because of my looks that I have been able to support Sensei as I have been until now!”

Torahime: “I’m happy! It's an honor!”

Torahime: “Don’t worry about how Sensei doesn’t remember the face of the assistant that has been by his side the entire time, because I don’t care either!”

(Torahime crying a little)

Torahime: “Ahahaha, ahahaha…………”

Nakagami: ….You’re a great help. You’re the only one that I can rely on at the moment.

Torahime: “...!”

Torahime: “S-Sensei…! Such words of…!”

Torahime: “Leave it to me. I will do anything for your sake, Sensei.”

Nakagami: Thank you, Torajirou-kun.

Torahime: “It’s Torahime.”

Nakagami & Torahime: ……..

Torahime: “Okay, it’s getting time to hang up. There’s a small matter I have to attend to.” 

Nakagami: Hm? What?

Torahime: “Uh, I don’t really get it myself but, on the night of the 31st everyone’s gonna hold a Halloween party.”

Nakagami: Halloween party!? The Charisma’s will!?

Torahime: “There’s a costume contest too.”

Nakagami: A costume contest!? The Charisma’s will!!!!!!!

Nakagami: H-h-h-h-how is this possible! Tell me all the details!

Nakagami: Who’s gonna wear what? Will everyone join? How long will it take---

Nakagami: Hm? Hello? Torajirou? Hello!!! HELLOOOOOO!!

Nakagami: Just when things were getting good!

Iori: Tora-san, what’s wrong?

Torahime: Ah, no, it’s nothing.

Fumiya: Called your girlfriend again?

Torahime: ………….

Iori: Halloween, huh. Wonder what kind of slave I should be.

Fumiya: Who’s gonna take the big prize?

Amahiko: Well, Terra-san is the most likely winner. He’s more fired up than he was before.

Iori: Seriously, Terra-san’s mega earnest Halloween party looks like it’ll be lots of fun.

Fumiya: Don’t lose, Amahiko

Amahiko: Of course, I’ll take ‘em all down

Fumiya & Amahiko: Hahaha
