04:00I'm a traveler.
04:25Please spare me some water.
04:28Hello?
04:30There's no one around.
04:32A sword?
04:33What in the world?
04:40It's glowing.
04:42Hey!
04:43Who the hell are you?
04:44You identify yourself first.
04:47I'm one of the sword masters.
04:51The name's Tsunagi.
04:52Drop that oath sword and scram!
04:55Or do battle!
04:56You decide!
04:57This here is my sword.
05:02You damn fool!
05:04You'll repress this when you're burning in hell!
05:07What's an oath sword anyway?
05:15You don't know a damn thing!
05:18I guess I'll tell you before you die.
05:20Oath swords are no ordinary blades.
05:23Those who wield them are granted a range of powers.
05:26Those who wield them are granted a range of powers.
05:26The one acknowledged as strongest by all oath swords will take possession of the country.
05:32They'll gain the power of nation ceasing!
05:35Are you saying I would have enough power to take over Japan?
05:41Great!
05:44You know, I've always wanted to be a king!
05:49I'll become the strongest of all!
05:53And the ruler of this country!
05:55Like hell you will!
06:05Ow!
06:06Ah!
06:07Don't kill me!
06:08Please spare my life!
06:09I'm not ready to die!
06:11Then will you admit that I'm stronger?
06:14Yes!
06:15I admit it!
06:16You're stronger than me!
06:28So Shinjuku is up ahead?
06:30Yep!
06:31The underground dungeon's a battlefield of rival warlords.
06:34One of them, Kizumi, is a cut above the rest.
06:38Beat him, and Shinjuku's all yours!
06:41Hmm...
06:43You didn't want to become the ruler yourself?
06:45That's life!
06:46When you lose in a battle of sword masters,
06:49you have a choice to make.
06:51Offer up your life or serve under the victor.
06:54But...
06:55Once you become king, I'm golden!
06:57You can make me a minister, right?
07:00Listen!
07:01If you do, I'll carve a path to the throne for ya!
07:14Say your prayers!
07:15You first!
07:16Way to go!
07:17Blade, you did it!
07:18Kizumi!
07:19These guys are really tough.
07:20If I falter here, I won't stand a chance at becoming king.
07:23Hey!
07:24Why don't you let us join the ranks?
07:26When you're the king, you can grant me the position of general!
07:30We weren't living underground by chains.
07:31We weren't living underground by chains.
07:32If I falter here, I won't stand a chance at becoming king.
07:33If I falter here, I won't stand a chance at becoming king.
07:38Hey!
07:39Why don't you let us join the ranks?
07:42When you're the king, you can grant me the position of general!
07:47We weren't living underground by choice.
08:01This damn Shibuya Oni drove us there.
08:04They're in a different league than your usual, Oni.
08:08Looks like we've got our next objective.
08:15We'll go forth!
08:17And slay the Shibuya Oni!
08:20Could he?
08:38Could he?
08:41I will go forth!
08:42We're the king and king!
08:44Could he be?
08:46Can I?
08:47Could he be?
08:48Could he be?
08:50You can't do that but you can't do that!
08:54Or can he be?
08:55Can he be?
08:56Can he be?
08:57Could he be?
08:58Can he be?
09:00Can he be?
09:01He is a king and king!
09:03It's all up to the north!
09:04Can he be?
09:06Can he be?
09:07Can he be?
09:08That was Act 1.
09:30Act 2 depicts the confrontation between the Shinjuku faction, unified under Blade,
09:35and the Shibuya faction, a band of Oni that joined forces.
09:40And it all begins with a fight between these two.
09:44You've turned traitor?
09:46I've been an Oni of Princess Sia-led Shibuya from the start.
09:51Why fight? Is there no other way to solve this?
09:56My parents forced this sword on me, and I was caught up in this war.
10:01Sakuya Kamoshida.
10:03He's a popular performer who's heavily utilized in 2.5D plays.
10:08As a person, he's a frivolous womanizer.
10:10But he's an excellent actor.
10:13I don't wish to battle.
10:16Please flee.
10:17That way we can get out of this without fighting.
10:20I beg you, just run away.
10:23Get out of here!
10:24Though his personality is the polar opposite of his character,
10:27he's reenacting the manga to perfection.
10:30His acting ability is more than adequate.
10:40Damn it.
10:42Increase the effects a bit more.
10:44You got it.
10:46How was that?
10:47All right.
10:48Let's check your stage positions.
10:50Yes, sir.
10:51Introducing Sakuya Kamoshida to us was a big help.
10:54He's a very good actor.
10:55Well, I'm glad he's been to your liking.
10:59Though, when you chose to use La La Lai, I made the assumption that you were shooting for a play that wouldn't need to be bound by 2.5D rules.
11:07Well, that's a goal of mine, of course.
11:09I want new spectators to become fans of theater in general, rather than 2.5D plays alone.
11:16So you see, if we aim to preserve the existing rules, while also judiciously breaking those rules, wouldn't that be perfect?
11:23That's why we wanted to partner with La La Lai.
11:27And sure enough, Sakuya is nothing short of remarkable.
11:31Even within the field of 2.5D, he has a high level of respect for the source material.
11:36He also has loads of know-how for bringing 2.5D characters to life.
11:40No one could serve as a better model than him.
11:43Even all the La La Lai members were quick to realize they had lots to learn from him.
11:48And they sucked up the ins and outs of knowledge like sponges.
11:51Glad to hear it. Acting as a go-between was worth my while.
11:55Aqua and Kana Arima are top-notch actors, too.
11:58So I'm very happy with the work you've done, and I trust your casting choices.
12:02But that guy was the only one I didn't really get.
12:05I mean, it's not like he's that well-known, and his acting skills aren't enough to snuff alongside veterans.
12:11It's questionable whether he even straights by with the passing grade.
12:15I saw him in suite today, and to be honest, I thought he was unfit for the play.
12:20But he received the role because you pushed hard for him, right?
12:24Why did you do that? You must have sensed a little talent in him.
12:28Not really. It's a personal thing.
12:31A personal thing?
12:33That's the way of the world, isn't it?
12:36If there's an empty seat, you thrust the kid you favor into it.
12:39He's got good looks and a good voice.
12:42As far as acting, he'll get better over time.
12:46Please don't use other people's plays as a training ground, okay?
12:49Oh, no. I only pushed for him since I thought he'd grow on you.
12:53I mean, don't you like his type?
13:00The type who worked their tails off.
13:03See? He's not the same guy he was during suite today.
13:15He's approaching acting for all these worlds.
13:19Kids like him are the ones who leave their mark.
13:21Besides, whether or not his casting was a mistake is something she'll surely be the judge of.
13:29The person watching him with the most critical eyes in the world is here with us today.
13:34After starting middle school, a third year had her way with me.
13:43That's when I realized I was popular.
13:47Even if I was silent, people were drawn to me.
13:50If I fell for a girl, she'd be the one to say she liked me.
13:54If I teased some odd kid, everyone would laugh.
13:58And I thought I was funny when I did it.
14:00Even if I winged it, things still generally went well for me.
14:05People had high expectations for me, but I had no money, and part-time jobs were a drag.
14:12Well, I'll just wing it.
14:14That was my thinking.
14:17In the showdown between these two in the manga,
14:19Kizumi exuded an aura of strength.
14:22But there's no sense of strength in his acting.
14:25Why?
14:27Why would they use a poor actor for a work someone poured their soul into creating?
14:32Really?
14:33His acting's only slightly better than an amateur's.
14:36Do I need to bring my level down to his?
14:39What a pain.
14:41Seriously, screw off.
14:43Damn hack.
14:44Never working for your role,
14:45and only getting hired for your looks.
14:47I get it.
14:51I'm an awful actor.
14:53I've known ever since I saw that performance.
14:56And those around me were bringing their skills down to my level.
15:01Hey, So.
15:02I ruined the show.
15:03Boy, making that face all the time.
15:05My acting was that bad?
15:13It would have been so different if I'd approached it seriously from the start.
15:20The show would have been...
15:22So much better.
15:28You know, you've got a surprising amount of stamina.
15:31The teacher I'm doing lessons with said actors need good stamina.
15:37So, I've been running every day.
15:40I've been at it since Sweet Today ended.
15:46Considering how physical this is,
15:52he's not very exhausted.
15:57Apparently, he rehearsed more than I thought.
16:00But take a look.
16:01See the audience's reaction?
16:04That guy playing Kisumi is...
16:06Yeah.
16:07He's terrible.
16:10I'll defeat you!
16:12And we'll claim the Heavenly Maiden of Paradise!
16:15Super Youth Action!
16:22See?
16:23The audience thinks you suck.
16:27Big time.
16:28But who really cares?
16:32So they think you're lousy.
16:34Huh?
16:34What kind of advice is that?
16:37I had to swallow my pride to ask!
16:39You could have answered seriously!
16:40If another project ends up being terrible because of me.
16:45I wasn't trying to brush you off.
16:48I'm telling you to make good use of being lousy.
16:52Wait, what?
16:53As if I could actually do that!
16:55If you can, your biggest highlight in the show is your showdown with Mon-Mei.
16:59You can use the month we have for rehearsals however you like, but trying to improve all around would be a pointless exercise.
17:06In which case, wouldn't your chances of success be better if you poured all your efforts into one thing?
17:12If the audience is underestimating you, that also means their guard is down.
17:19This is one of the basics of entertainment, so remember it.
17:23Take, for example, a kid in class who gets bullied.
17:27Or a plain girl with glasses who never stood out.
17:30Or an otaku thought to have no redeeming qualities.
17:36An actor who was thought to be awful.
17:40If they started doing something amazing out of the blue, it'd shock them all.
17:49That was so hard!
17:51Just like the manga!
17:53Amazing!
17:54I never believed it could actually be done!
17:57So to think he did it just like the manga,
17:59he really got it so high!
18:04Did you give him that idea?
18:06Not really.
18:07I just told him that even if his acting's poor,
18:09he should make good use of that fact.
18:11It's thanks to his effort he was able to pull it off.
18:15When people aren't expecting much, they're easily moved.
18:18It's human instinct for one's ability to gather information
18:21to kick into gear when something unexpected happens.
18:25The audience will try to read far more meaning into his acting going forward.
18:29Now's the time to strike.
18:32So you picked up strange, street performer-like tricks.
18:35It doesn't matter.
18:37Acting is what the audience is after.
18:39If you can't do that, there's no point!
18:43In this scene, having been defeated when I encountered my first strong enemy,
18:46I now face him with sheer guts!
18:51This right here is my biggest show-off scene!
18:56Kizumi, watch and learn a bit longer.
19:01Yes, sir.
19:03The road is closed, Blade.
19:05If you want past, your head stays here!
19:08Exciting!
19:09Go on ahead!
19:11We'll handle things from here!
19:12Despite taking lessons for the past six months,
19:15these actors are still way out of my league.
19:18They have a good grasp of their character's feelings.
19:23I never thought you'd make it this far out of my league.
19:24And they project strong emotions like it's no big deal.
19:27After all, you are much weaker than I.
19:31It's true that I'm weak, but I've come this far because I don't stand alone!
19:34It's time to settle this, Mon Mei!
19:36Just reading the script, trying to sound believable.
19:41Oh, cut it.
19:43We weren't living underground by our own volition.
19:45I wonder how Toki feels about Princess Saya.
19:47Adoration? Affection? Something more complicated?
19:51You're examining characters besides your own?
19:53Doing that is important!
19:55Besides, the feelings directed at someone play a big role in shaping their personality.
20:00The issue is I'm dumb.
20:02I can't examine things the way Akane does.
20:04The character of Kizumi.
20:07What kind of person is he?
20:10I don't have the vaguest idea.
20:13Who are you?
20:15You got thrashed by an opponent you underestimated.
20:18And you struggled when you were met with defeat.
20:21Talk about lame.
20:24Why do you have such a...
20:26miserable look on your face?
20:28Like I do.
20:30Like I do.
20:33Oh.
20:34I see now.
20:36You thought you were tough.
20:38But realized you were actually weak.
20:42You're pathetic.
20:44Disgraceful.
20:46And frustrated.
20:46In that case, I can totally relate.
20:58I can totally relate.
21:04This guy.
21:06From his eyes to his fingertips.
21:08He's projecting a sense of frustration so powerfully.
21:12It'll reach the audience.
21:13I used the bulk of our rehearsal time to dig deeply into this feeling.
21:23I devoted the past month for the sake of this minute.
21:27I don't care if you've been acting for ten years.
21:31For this one minute,
21:33no one will outshine me!
21:34I don't know.
21:45Why are you?
21:46This team won't for me!
22:22I won't lose to anyone!
22:52You see, I wasn't mistaken in my judgment of him.
23:06You did great!
23:13Blade and I will take it over from here!
23:15Blade and I will take it over from here.
23:21Hey, Sakuya, I'm sorry for ad-libbing like that.
23:25Hey, you're pretty good!
23:27That was nothing like dress rehearsals.
23:29Nice job putting emotion into it.
23:31Keep it up next time, okay?
23:33Acting is all about leaning into your emotions.
23:41Thanks, Aqua.
23:43I finally understand what you told me back then.
23:48That was so much fun!
23:49Is that so?
23:54I'll be right back.
