“The Top of the Blue Yonder" - CHAPTER 1"


Banri: ….
Misumi: Ohh? Kumon, isn’t that Banri over there~?
Banri: (Hm? That voice…)
Kumon: It is! Maybe he finished uni for the day?
O—ii, Banri!
Banri: Chill, I can hear ya without you shouting, y’know. Need something from me?
Misumi: Me and Kumon were doing some Street Acts~ Do you wanna join us?
Banri: Sure, why not. What’s the theme?
Kumon: Our theme is “delinquents”!
Banri: Delinquents?
Kumon: Yeah! There’s this really popular manga called “Yankee Star” that just released their spin-off story.
That story was so interesting it made me want to try being a delinquent myself!
Banri: I see. Well I’ve actually been kinda curious about that manga myself.
Kumon: Really!? Guess there’s no helping it— I’ll lend you my copy next time!
Banri: Why do you say it as if you’ve got no choice?



Misumi: I’ve been really into delinquent etudes recently too! Like how they’d have a leaf on their mouth and stuff like this~
Banri: I’m pretty sure those kinds of delinquents aren’t that much of a thing anymore.
Misumi: Ehh, really? But they appeared in the manga that I borrowed from Azami~
Banri: Isn’t that more because it’s a full-on old gen delinquent manga?
Kumon: You really know a lot about delinquents, huh, Banri. Almost like a real-life delinquent wannabe!
Banri: …Who’re you calling a delinquent wannabe?
Kumon: But it’s true though! It’s a compliment, a compliment!
Banri: “——Don’t mess around. Want me to wipe that sick grin off your face and make you see no tomorrow, huh?!”
Kumon: “!!”
“That’s my line, you punk!”
(SWING)
Banri: “Hmph!”
(SWING)
Misumi: “Well well, it’s no fair that you guys are keeping the fun to yourselves. Lemme in on that! Take that!”
(SWING)
Kumon: “A flying kick!?”
Banri: “Oh you’re serious biz then.”
Passerby A: Huh, is a fight breaking out?
Passerby B: No, it’s a Street Act! It’s getting intense…!

Banri & Kumon: Thank you very much!
Misumi: Everyone, thanks for watching~!
Kumon: People got really into that Street ACT!
Misumi: Yeah! And it was so fun to do! Thanks for going along with us, Banri!
Banri: ‘Course. I did have fun too.
???: Uhm…
Banri: Hm?
???: You’re… MANKAI Company, right?
Banri: Yeah we are. You know of us?
???: Of course, I’ve been to your performances before. I’m always supporting you guys.
Kumon: Woah, thanks! We’re always glad for the support!
???: It’s my pleasure. A flyer ad convinced me to see it, but I would call myself really lucky to have watched something as amazing as that show.
Oh, right. Will you take our own flyer too? We’re promoting a rehearsal studio that has just opened recently.
Banri: Sure thing.
Misumi: There are triangle patterns on this flyer design! So many wonderful triangles~!
???: Ahaha, it’s just the result of the hard work we put into the design. Well then, I’ll be going.
Banri: “Soukuu Rehearsal Studio: Now Open!”, it says. Looks like it’s pretty nearby.
Kumon: You think that guy just now was one of their staff?
Banri: Probs. We could let Director-chan know about this— there’s a chance we could use a studio like that one of these days, after all.

—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—　—

Kumon & Misumi: We’re home~!
Izumi: Oh. Welcome back, everyone.
Banri: Just the person we were looking for. You know of Soukuu, Director-chan? Seems like it’s a newly opened rehearsal studio that’s just ‘round the neighborhood.
Izumi: Soukuu… You mean the one that’s gotten controversial on social media right now?
Members: Controversial…?
