Who wants some mandarin orange?
Where are we right now?
Stop leaning forward. Don't blame me if you get sick.
I don't get carsick!
"Summer Training Camp Guide"
Seriously? We only have 30 minutes to bathe?
But I like taking long baths!
The time schedule isn't set in stone...
Who wants candy?
We're totally in the mountains now, huh?
It feels like we're in a resort town.
Hmph. It's just a regular countryside.
Just to be clear, I didn't come because I wanted to.
You can't push that!
Stopping at the next stop.
Sorry, we're not getting off!
That's not the button to call the tour guide?
Normal buses don't have them.
Going back in time to when we, Team Otori, had just finished our first performance,
the Newcomers' Debut Performance--
The Ayanagi Festival in October. The performance there will be the next test stage.
Ayanagi Festival...?
Is there a piece we have to perform?
Unlike the debut performance, each group is free to decide what they want to perform.
Does that mean we can decide ourselves?
That's kind of exciting.
It's not as easy as you think.
That's right.
And so, during the upcoming summer vacation, Team Otori will have a training camp.
Training camp?!
You amateurs can go to a training camp by yourselves.
I'll stay home with Tavian--
It'd be lonely without you, Tengenji!
I wouldn't feel lonely.
What?!
By the way, Tengenji, you seem to be reading the guide rather enthusiastically.
What?!
Because Nayuki said he stayed up working on it...
Could they actually be a good combination?
Maybe.
Otori, sir, our training camp will be at the Hiragi family villa, right?
You can expect a lot.
It's the famous Hiragi family's mansion, after all.
It is a mansion...
...but it's really run-down.
Now, boys. Hurry up and come in.
"STARMYU"
"Act 7"
The first floor is the hall and practice room,
and the second floor is the accommodations.
You can use whatever room you'd like.
"This is a work of fiction and is not related to any existing persons, groups, or names."
That looks expensive!
Hey, don't touch it and break it--
What's with this floor?!
Why is it so run-down?
Hm, it looks like no one's used it for a while.
Well, it won't keep us from practicing.
Sir, where is the practice room?
Forget that.
We're all tired from traveling since morning.
Making sure your body gets enough rest is also part of an actor's training.
Well, have fun, boys!
Even if he tells us, "have fun"...
What are we supposed to do this deep in the mountains?!
We've gotta start with exploring!
Wait, Hoshitani!
Wh-What?
"Beware of Bears"
Bears...?
It'd be all right if it was a cub...
Cubs are scary, too!
Hoshitani, are you bad with animals in general?
Wh-Wh-What was that just now?
Did you hear something from in there?
That's the food storage shed, right?
What was that scream?
Nayuki!
What happened?
Th-Th-There's a bear!
What?!
Where is it?
In here!
What's that?
I threw it by accident... I wonder if it hurt?
Let's all hold the door together!
R-Right!
Oh, that scared me.
I've got a bump now...
I was just getting some food...
Oh, I know you! You guys are from Team Otori!
And I believe you're...
I am...
That's right! I'm Ayanagi Academy's singing and dancing new star!
From Team Hiragi, Seishiro Inumine!
That's me!

Team Hiragi?!
Hey, when did you guys wander off?
The next thing I knew, no one else was around, and that--
That's our line, Inu, you dog!
We were looking everywhere for you.
He's useless for anything except musicals.
Well? Why is Team Otori here?
Waited long enough to ask.
We're probably here for the same reason you guys are.
Huh? Am I still dreaming?
I didn't expect you to also use this place.
At any rate, I can't believe you could sleep in such a dusty room.
I wonder about your senses.
You're really sensitive, huh?
You are not sensitive enough.
Excuse us!
Please excuse us.
Oh my. This is kind of a refreshing sight.
Hiragi, sir, we have successfully recovered Inumine.
Good work.
Otori, sir, did you know that Team Hiragi would be having their training camp here?
We got here first.
You guys should leave!
What? You guys should leave!
What did you say?!
What shall we do, Hiragi, sir?
It's fine for everyone to stay, don't you think?
No road is long with good company.
Take this opportunity to get to know each other, boys.
Thanks for the food!
Thanks for making our lunch, too.
I hope you liked it.
I can eat anything other than rocks.
That's not a compliment.
Team Hiragi has practice this afternoon, too, huh?
Why do those boors have practice while we have to clean?
It's fine! We don't have practice today.
Besides, all that's left is the master bedroom on the second floor.
Woah, it's completely different from our rooms.
The master bedroom, huh?
I'm sure Otori or Hiragi will use it.
Oh, look! There's that famous frilly thing on top of the bed!
You're right! I've never seen one before!
Hey, look...
What?
Is that Otori and Hiragi?
Oh, they look close!
Because they're related.
Really?
The Otori family is a branch of the Hiragi family.
We're done! We're done!
In the end, we spent all day cleaning, huh?
What's that sound?
Probably a mouse or something.
What, Hoshitani? Mice are only this big, you know.
Oh, Team Otori!
You were really cleaning until now.
Thanks for your hard work.
We weren't doing it for you!
Ugawa, thank them properly.
T-Tatsumin...
Hah, I guess you're scared of Mommy, huh? Little Ugawa.
What the hell? You guys are the ones playing house.
You're just a motley bunch!
What'd you say?!
Motley bunch!
Ugawa!
--Tengenji! --We're not a motley bunch!
Motley bunch!
Oh no, that vase is expensive!
I'll get it out of the way!
I'll help, too!
Be careful!
I can't believe it ended in such a clichéd way...
Wh-Wh-Wh-What should we do?!
How much is this?!
It's a famous German brand, huh?
It can't be less than a hundred million.
A hundred million?!
That vase was Chekhov's gun, huh?
He means, there are no unnecessary props on stage.
What was that sound just now?
Anyway, just hide it!
Everything okay?
Why are you dressed like that?
Oh, who took off their clothes and left them here?
Oh dear.
What is the meaning of this?
W-Well...
W-We...
"Scene of carnage at the Hiragi family villa --Mental image"
A-A bear did it!
What?!
Wait, a bear?
Isn't that pushing it?
I wanted to protect Hoshitani and Inumine and couldn't help myself...
Thanks.
There's no helping what was already said.
Let's see this through.
Put on an act, huh?
Well, where's the bear?
U-Um, over there!
That's right, over there!
I-It looked like it was in a hurry and left right away. Um...
Through the window.
It's closed!
H-How conscientious of him to close it after he opened it.
There's no way a bear like that exists.
What's your deal?!
Calm down, everyone!
♪ Do not be afraid ♪
♪ Everything's fine ♪
-- ♪ I think Mr. Bear already went back home to the woods ♪
--What is he doing?
--Everyone, let's all say "bye" to Mr. Bear!
--Don't worry.
--That's normal for Inumine. See? --Mr. Bear, bye-bye!
--Hiragi doesn't look like he suspects anything. --Come on, all together now!
--Bye-by--
--That's enough.
Anyway, it's dangerous, so clean up the fragments.
Wait a minute!
It'd be better not to touch it.
Hiragi, wouldn't it be better to purify it first?
Wait, what do you mean "purify"?
This is an unlucky vase that has been passed down in the Hiragi family for generations.
Unlucky vase?
All who touched this vase in the past died, one after another.
Apparently, there were talks to dispose of it,
but it is a vase that invites death with a touch.
No one knew what to do with it.
Th-That's a lie...
Right, Hiragi, sir?
I'm glad it was a bear that broke it...
Before it was broken by a person, however unlikely that is.
Um, if it was a person who broke it, what would happen to him?
I'm afraid to even imagine...
It's possible that something worse than death awaits...
Look! What's that?
It seemed funny, so I couldn't help but go along with it.
Of course, we knew from the beginning that you were the ones who broke the vase.
I-I'm so sorry!
The others had nothing to do with it.
So the two of us will pay for it...
But in installments, if possible...!
Don't be so hasty.
This is a cheap replica.
What?!
You should have just told the truth.
What...?
I had fun watching the dream team perform together.
Now, please get dinner ready.
Oh, good...
I'm so glad!
--There was no way I'd be able to pay a hundred million...
--It looks like they believed us.
A piece from an old and distinguished German brand, was it?
Too bad. Looks like we've lost a Hiragi family heirloom.
I'll apologize to Grandfather.
Thanks.
Even so, I can't believe they tried to trick us with their acting.
Give it another ten years, boys.
Practicing on your own?
Oh, it just seems strange to skip a day of practice.
You like musicals, don't you?
You do too, don't you, Tatsumi?
I could tell watching you at the debut performance.
Your team's "Ayanagi Showtime" wasn't bad, either.
You think so?
But you're no threat to us.
Maybe?
That's my fault, isn't it?
Out of curiosity, why are you trying to be a musical actor?
Um, well, it's not about the musicals...
I just have someone I admire.
But I only saw him once, so I don't even know his name.
I see. So musicals to you are that person you admire, huh?
You don't know most of the famous works,
or many playwrights or directors.
That's why you're pure and interesting.
But you'll reach a limit one day with just that.
Maybe.
A limit?
The one who pulls the team and helps them survive until the next stage...
The one who should make decisions at important times...
That's you, the leader, isn't it?
At times like that, does the person you admire give you advice?
That person is my dream...
No matter how clumsy I am, no matter how little I know about musicals...
I don't know a way to give up on my dream.
You are wonderful.
Just like your team's performance.
Your skill levels are all different,
and your performance looked like it was put together last minute.
But something about you shines.
I can't deny that I felt that.
Tatsumi...
Tatsumin!
Inumine looks like he's about to fall asleep!
I have to go.
Thanks.
Today was fun.
I'm glad we could act together. Next time--
Hoshitani.
Today, we just happened to be on the same stage,
and became costars by a strange twist of fate.
But don't forget--
Tomorrow, we'll go back to being rivals fighting for the top spot.
I'm looking forward to seeing your team become formidable rivals.
Yeah!
Please put that away before the underclassmen see it.
You really are too sensitive.
You are not sensitive enough.
You won't notice the enemy until you're stabbed in the back.
That's a scary thing to say.
I'm being serious.
Is that a warning from the head of the Kao Council?
Or is that advice from a friend?
You never pay heed to my advice. Like that time...
I'll call the police.
Wait.
Look.
Hoshitani?
What's wrong, Hoshitani?
I really want to sing right now!
What the heck?
I just want to sing!
We're back!
Training camp is over, and it's almost the end of vacation.
"Math"
I hate to think about it.
But we did our homework during the training camp,
so we can play starting from tomorrow, right?
Why didn't you do your homework?
Hoshitani, once you finish that, do this.
"Act 8"
Toraishi, Inumine already fell asleep, so let me sleep in your room.
Aw, how cute. Did you watch a scary TV show or something?
That's not it. When that guy sleeps, he grinds his teeth, eats rice balls,
and opens his eyes. Anyway, it's hard to relax!
Man, that guy really is useless...
"Look forward to next week, too. Right, Inumine?"
