| Sakyo | ...Looks like everyone’s here. Let’s begin. |
| Sakuya | Yes! |
| Um, I had everyone gather here today—. |
| To discuss the event that we’re holding to celebrate the first anniversary of the Reborn MANKAI Company. |
| Banri | We already decided what to do for the party, right? |
| Tsumugi | It seems like everything is going as planned for that. |
| Sakuya | I was thinking we should send a surprise present to Director during the party—a present from all of us. |
| Tenma | Huh. |
| Kazunari | I already gave her a gift on my own, but a gift from everyone sounds nice! |
| Tenma | An anniversary gift? When’d you give her something like that? |
| Kazunari | Huh? You didn’t give her anything, Tenten? |
| Tenma | Er, well, I.... |
| Yuki | You probably thought you were the only one who gave her something. |
| Tenma | Wha! Shut up! |
| Misumi | I gave her something too~. |
| Azuma | I guess we all thought the same sort of thing. |
| Tasuku | But if it’s a gift from everyone, it’ll make a nice memory. Sounds like a good idea. |
| Hisoka | ...Should we each chip in some money? |
| Tsuzuru | If there’s twenty of us, it’ll add up. |
| Juza | The question is what we’re gonna give. |
| Omi | Between all of us, we’ve probably given her most gifts you can think of. |
| Citron | Let’s make a thousand paper cranes from origami! |
| Taichi | No, that means something else[1]! |
| Muku | Um... what about a message book? |
| Sakuya | A message book? |
| Muku | One of my classmates had to transfer schools a little while back. We handed them a notebook where each person in my class had written a page-long message. |
| They really liked it, so I was wondering if that might be a good idea... |
| Sakyo | Huh, sounds good. |
| Homare | Yes, there’s more feeling to it than just sending a physical gift. |
| Masumi | I can’t sum up my feelings to her in one page.... I need at least ten notebooks. |
| Citron | It won’t even fit in one!? |
| Tsuzuru | It’ll become as thick as a dictionary. |
| Yuki | That’s nothing but a nuisance. |
| Muku | U-um, I think it’ll be easier for Director-san to read if it’s all compiled in one notebook. |
| Itaru | We all get one page. The question is who can present the biggest appeal to Director-san in that allotted space. |
| Masumi | ——. |
| I won’t lose to you all. I’ll cram ten notebooks into one page.... |
| Itaru | Well, good luck. |
| Tsuzuru | Itaru-san, you’ve gotten pretty good at handling Masumi. |
| Itaru | He’s simple-minded, after all. |
| Kazunari | Okay, let’s go buy the notebook! |
| Muku | Yeah. We’ll pass it to the Spring Troupe first, Summer second, and so on, so please make sure you complete your message by the day of the party. |
| Sakuya | Yep! |
| Citron | All right! |
| *Door opens* |
| Izumi | I’m home. |
| Sakuya | !! |
| Izumi | Huh? Why is everyone gathered? |
| Tsuzuru | Oh no, we gotta cover up—. |
| Tenma | Wh-what are you talking about!? We were just, you know, uh—playing some oshikura manju[2]! |
| Sakuya | O-oshikura manju, don’t cry when you’re pushed! |
| Misumi | Oshikura manju~! |
| Taichi | D-don’t cry when you’re pushed, yeah~. |
| Banri | ...Couldn’t you think of anything else. |
| Izumi | Um, looks like fun? |
| Oh, that’s right. If everyone’s here, that’s perfect. |
| There are going to be maintenance workers in the theater for a while starting tomorrow, so it’s off-limits for that time. |
| Itaru | Maintenance workers? |
| Izumi | We’re having them check it for safety. |
| Itaru | The theater is pretty shabby, after all.... |
| Citron | When you go there at night, it’s like an abandoned lot. Gets you as nervous as a haunted house~. |
| Banri | The seats get kinda painful when you’re sitting in them for a while. |
| Sakuya | Let’s do our best to make money so we can fix these issues bit by bit! |
| Homare | I’d like leather sofas for seating. |
| Sakyo | Rejected. It’ll cost way too much. |
