From A3! Wiki
Pair Performance: Kazunari with Homare
Backstage Stories
| Izumi | It looks like your theme is “Sleeping Beauty,” Kazunari-kun and Homare-san. Could I confirm the summary and lines with you two? |
| Kazunari | OK! |
| Homare | “After being cursed by the witch and touching the spinning wheel’s needle, the beautiful princess fell into a deep slumber.” |
| “The curse lasts 100 years, leaving the castle which the princess resides in, covered in thorns.” | |
| “In that time, a prince hears about this rumor and sets off to the castle in order to break the curse…” is the summary. | |
| Kazunari | “It is time to wake up, Princess,” and “I can’t believe I’ve been asleep for 100 years…it really feels like a dream,” are the lines! |
| I’m pretty familiar with the story of “Sleeping Beauty.” And, playing the role of the princess seems like hella fun~! | |
| Homare | Mhm. It is a theme perfect for us! |
| Izumi | Fufu, I’m glad. Then, I’ll be looking forward to your pair performance, Kazunari-kun and Homare-san. |
| [Room 205] | |
| Kazunari | Hmm, I came here thinking I’d get to talk to you about the pair performance, Aririn, but… |
| Hisoka | Zz-…zz-… |
| Kazunari | If we have our discussion here, then won’t Hisohiso wake up from the middle of his nap~? |
| Homare | If we do not talk loudly, then it will be quite alright. Once Hisoka-kun falls asleep, it is rather difficult to wake him up. |
| Well then…since we had reviewed the contents of the pair performance the other day, I suggest doing an impromptu performance. | |
| Kazunari | If you’re good with it Aririn, how ‘bout I do an etude? I think I can play the princess’s role better that way. |
| The scene where the princess falls asleep is a pretty big one, so I think it’d be pretty fun to freely express that feeling however I want. | |
| Homare | I see, that does seem like something you would do, Kazunari-kun. |
| Then, with an opposite approach I shall create the content in prior. I have always wanted to have a go at writing a script by hand. | |
| Kazunari | I’m hella looking forward to your script, Aririn~ Then, the contents will be like this… |
| Hisoka | Gu…zzz… |
| Kazunari | …Don’tcha think watching Hisohiso sleeping is good reference for the princess’s role study? |
| Homare | You seem to have a point. It has been decided, let us observe Hisoka-kun together! |
| Hisoka | Arisu, so loud… |
| Homare | Oh, it seems as though Hisoka-kun has risen from his slumber. |
| Kazunari | Sorry for being so loud~! |
| [Later] | |
| Kazunari | (What should I do for the princess’s role study~) |
| (When I think of “Sleeping Beauty,” the first thing that comes to mind is the image of roses, so should I go look at flowers at the botanical garden? | |
| Taichi | Ah, Kazu-kun! |
| Juza | ‘sup. |
| Kazunari | GJ you two~! Going somewhere? |
| Taichi | Now that I can drive, I’ve made plans to go to this café inside a botanical garden with Juza-san! |
| Juza | Thought a lil’ outin’ wouldn’t hurt, and there’s a limited edition cake over there that’s been goin’ pretty viral lately for being really delicious. |
| Kazunari | A café inside of a botanical garden… that must be the Greenhouse Café! |
| I’ve also been there before and they had so many flower decorations inside, it’s a realllly calming café~ | |
| (…Thats right!) | |
| Would y’all mind if I tag along too? | |
| My role for the pair performance this time around is of a princess, so I thought it’d be a good idea to look at some flowers for role study reference. | |
| Juza | Yeah, I don’t mind. |
| Taichi | Me neither! It’d be more fun if we all went together! |
| Kazunari | FRs? Thanks you two~! |
| [Later, at the café] | |
| Employee | 3 limited edition cake sets. Understood, we will return with your food shortly. |
| [Later] | |
| Juza | …You said your role is a princess’s role Kazunari-san, but what’s your theme for the pair performance exactly? |
| Kazunari | “Sleeping Beauty!” So I have plans to become a sleeping princess surrounded by roses~ |
| Taichi | I see! You can definitely get good reference for a princess’s role from here. |
| If there’s anything I can do to help you with your role study, don’t hesitate to ask! | |
| Kazunari | Eh, you sure? |
| Taichi | Of course! Since I have the opportunity to! |
| Juza | If ya need, I’ll also help out. |
| Kazunari | Thanks so muchsies~! Then, once our cake sets arrive I have a favor to ask you two… |
| [Later] | |
| Kazunari | “This black tea…it is oh so delicious~” |
| Taichi | “There are various sweets with such rich aromas as well, it was absolutely worth coming all this way.” |
| Juza | “Yeah. I…I think so as well. There’s plenty of hella good…delicious honey.”[1][2] |
| Kazunari | “Despite it being delicious, I might not be able to dance at the dance party tonight if I eat too much.” |
| “Even though my lovely prince is finally coming to visit…” | |
| Taichi | “Oh my, which country could your beloved prince be from? Would you consider only telling me?” |
| Juza | “I…I would also like…to know.”[3] |
| [Later] | |
| Kazunari | Thanks for helping me out, you two~! I managed to get tons of role study reference material for my princess etude! |
| Juza | Nah, I also gained some experience from it. ‘s not every day that I get the chance to play a female role. |
| Taichi | I also really enjoyed doing a princess etude—! |
| Kazunari | But, I totes didn’t expect Hyodle’s princess to end up eloping with the prince towards the end~! |
| Taichi | Huh!? The other customers are clapping… |
| Kazunari | Could it be that everyone else had a super fun time watching our etude too? |
| Juza | We were focusin’ so hard that I guess we didn’t notice. |
| Kazunari | FR~! Well then, once again… |
| Thank you very much for watching—! | |
| Juza & Taichi | Thank you very much! |
| Izumi | So your theme is “Sleeping Beauty,” Kazunari-kun and Homare-san. If you’re ready, then please begin. |
| I’m OK whenever~! How ‘bout you, Aririn? | |
| Homare | I am also ready. |
| Taichi | Thanks for inviting me to watch today! I’m looking forward to your pair performance guys~! |
| Juza | I hope that etude we did was helpful… |
| Don’t worry, y’all helped me get hella reference material! | |
| Homare | Incidentally, Kazunari-kun is going to play the role of the princes while I shall be playing the role of the prince. |
| Izumi | Then, please start! |

Notes
- ↑ Juza says 俺(おれ) Ore, the first person pronoun usually used by men here, and then switches to 私(わたくし) Watakushi, the gender neutral first person pronoun which is also usually used by girls. Watakushi is usually used by young ladies
- ↑ This is kind of hard to translate but Juza first uses his usual way of speaking in the first part of the second sentence, then fixes it by switching to a more formal, ladylike way of speaking by adding わ(Wa) or わよ(Wayo) at the end
- ↑ Juza does both of the things I wrote in the previous notes again in this sentence 😭
