    You are my angel.
[00:12] Alexis
    Please do not become tainted, like my heart.
[00:22] Haruto
    I am always by your side
[00:26] Haruto
    You cry like a small child with your
    arms wrapped around your knees
[00:35] Haruto
    If I could caress your hair or your cheek
[00:43] Haruto
    I would wipe those tears away
[00:47] Haruto
    I am your heart
[00:56] Hoshitani
    I had an experience that changed
    the color of my world in an instant.
[00:56] Haruto
    I am your shadow
[01:01] Hoshitani
    I want to stand on the same stage with him.
[01:05] Hoshitani
    I want to dance like him.
[01:08] Hoshitani
    Maybe I'm not the only one who's
    had an encounter like that...

    That was a song from the graduation

[03:32] Hoshitani
    Practice hasn't started yet and
    you already have it memorized!
[03:34] Ageha
    That's because this song is special...
[03:39] Ageha
    to me.
[03:41] Hoshitani
    Special?
[03:42] Ageha
    You have something like that too, right?
[03:45] Ageha
    You said so at the Ayanagi Festival.
[03:49] (Flashback) Hoshitani
    I met the high schooler I admire at
    the Ayanagi Festival two years ago.
[03:54] (Flashback) Hoshitani
    I wanted to stand on stage with him,
[03:56] (Flashback) Hoshitani
    and so it became my dream to
    join the musical department.

    Wait, Ageha! I'll come with—

    You need to warm up, Hoshitani.
[04:33] Hoshitani
    Right.

    It's time for him to show what he's got.

[05:58] Kuga
    He's also a pretty popular musical actor.
[06:01] Hoshitani
    He's from that poster!
[06:04] Hoshitani
    But he's not quite how I'd pictured him...
[06:07] Nayuki
    So he was Haruto-san's classmate.
[06:10] Nayuki
    Did you know that, Tsukigami-kun?
[06:12] Tsukigami
    Nope.
[06:14] Uozumi
    Tsukigami?
[06:15] Futaba
    Oh? So that's Haruto's younger brother!
[06:20] Uozumi
    They look nothing alike.
[06:21] Futaba
    You think so? There are similarities, though.
[06:24] Uozumi
    Haruto is way more of a frivolous jerk!
[06:28] Saotome
    Save that for later. We're starting.
[06:31] Kuga
    Do they not get along?
[06:34] Tsukigami
    Seems that way.
SIGN    Ayanagi Academy's Graduation Celebration Performance  The Musical
[06:37] Saotome
    I'll begin by explaining the story
    of the program to be performed
[06:41] Saotome
    in the graduation celebration
    performance, "Shadow & Lights."
[06:45] Saotome
    Taiga?
[06:48] Saotome
    The stage is set at the beginning of
    the 20th century in London's West End.
[06:53] Saotome
    Show business was already well
    underway during this period.
[06:56] Saotome
    The protagonists are two young men living
    in the theater world, Lambert and Alexis.
[07:03] Saotome
    They have been best friends
    since they were children,
[07:05] Saotome
    and they have long dreamed
    of becoming actors together.
[07:09] Saotome
    However...
[07:15] Saotome
    When Alexis' path to becoming
    an actor is cut short,
[07:18] Saotome
    he withdraws to the attic of the theater
    and becomes an obscure playwright.
[07:22] Saotome
    He is feared by the public as a madman.
[07:26] Saotome
    Meanwhile, Lambert continues to pursue
    his dream of becoming an actor,
[07:31] Saotome
    but he suffers from a sense of guilt
    because Alexis had protected him.
[07:36] Saotome
    The roles known as the "shadows"
[07:38] Saotome
    are the exceedingly abstract existences
    that reflect the hearts of these two men.
[07:44] Saotome
    As has already been explained,
    the two leading roles will be played
[07:48] Saotome
    by Otori and Hiragi.
[07:50] Saotome
    Other roles important to the
    story include the part of Lucas,
[07:53] Saotome
    the American patron, played by Yuzuriha;
[07:57] Saotome
    Cliff, the detective, played by Sazanami;
[07:59] Saotome
    and Eddy, a childhood friend of Lambert
    and Alexis', played by Akatsuki.
[08:06] Futaba
    Okay, do you all have the general idea?
[08:11] Futaba
    Now, the moment you've been waiting for...
[08:13] Futaba
    I will explain the second-year training roles.
SIGN    Second-year Training Roles: Lambert's Shadow, Alexis' Shadow,
    Hardy (Dancer), Percy (Detective's Assistant), Orlando (Actor Colleague)
[08:16] Futaba
    There are five training roles.
[08:18] Futaba
    Among them, the roles of Lambert's Shadow and
    Alexis' Shadow, which were explained earlier,
[08:23] Futaba
    are of the most particular importance.
[08:26] Futaba
    Being attached to the leading roles,
    they are constantly on stage.
[08:30] Futaba
    The role of Alexis' Shadow, in particular,
    even has a musical solo.
[08:35] Futaba
    It's the top star of the training roles!
[08:38] Futaba
    Many people are familiar with it since it
    was the role our Prince Haruto played.
[08:42] Uozumi
    Hey!
[08:45] Futaba
    I went a little off-track, didn't I?
[08:48] Futaba
    Anyway, the role of the popular dancer, Hardy,
[08:52] Futaba
    involves a solo singing part and
    dancing with a high degree
[08:55] Futaba
    of difficulty, making it an impressive role.
[08:57] Futaba
    The role of the detective's assistant, Percy,
[08:59] Futaba
    serves as the comedic relief
    and has lots of lines.
[09:03] Futaba
    And lastly, the role of Orlando,
    Lambert's actor colleague,
[09:07] Futaba
    who is jealous of Lambert's success and,
[09:09] Futaba
    in his suffering, hatches a
    plan during the final acts.
[09:12] Futaba
    It is a role that demands
    delicate acting skills.
[09:16] Futaba
    Think thoroughly on who will
    be taking on each role.
[09:20] Futaba
    The auditions are a team challenge.
[09:23] Hoshitani
    Team challenge?
[09:24] Futaba
    Yes, that's the custom.
[09:26] Saotome
    Taiga.
[09:29] Futaba
    Yes, you there.
[09:30] Kitahara
    I'm Kitahara Ren. I received
    guidance from Sazanami-senpai.
[09:34] Kitahara
    By "team challenge,"
[09:36] Kitahara
    do you mean the team that acquires the
    most roles takes all the training roles?
[09:40] Nanjo
    Yes, that was bothering me, too.
[09:44] Nanjo
    Is there a reason it's not
    an individual challenge?
[09:46] Futaba
    Well...
[09:54] Uozumi
    Most of you are amateurs
    with no stage experience.
[09:58] Uozumi
    We feel it may be easier for you
    to co-star with your teammates.
[10:02] Uozumi
    That will also make things easier
    for the graduating students,
[10:05] Uozumi
    who are in the leading
    roles for this performance.
[10:08] Uozumi
    That's all.
[10:09] Futaba
    That's our second prince for you.
[10:12] Saotome
    If it was only about intensity,
    he'd be a good match for Haruto.
[10:15] Uozumi
    First, we need to assess your skill levels.
[10:19] Uozumi
    Don't let us down.
[10:22] Futaba

[22:37] Uozumi
    I wasn't dumped! Haru stole him away!
[22:40] Futaba
    Don't respond so seriously.
[22:42] Saotome
    All joking aside, though, haven't we already
    decided who this year's star of stars is?
[22:48] Futaba
    I'll have a hard time writing
    off Sazanami-kun's students.
[22:52] Saotome
    There's also the butterfly that
    is fascinated by the moonlight.

[22:57] Uozumi
    That Haru really forced a difficult job on us.
[23:01] Futaba
    Oh, you mean that other mission?
[23:05] Saotome
    I'm happy to do a favor for
    our beloved Haruto...
[23:09] Futaba
    But it's no simple mission.
[23:13] Uozumi
    I don't know what's going on...
[23:18] Uozumi
    But it seems this strange guy
    has been pulled into it, too.

[23:25] Otori
    Tsukigami-senpai!
[23:26] Haruto
    Hey, Otori.
[23:27] Otori
    I heard you threatened Hiragi.
[23:29] Otori
    You care about your little brother, huh?
[23:31] Otori
    But if you look after him too much,
    Kaito is going to cut you off.
[23:33] Otori
    The fallout from sibling fights
    is a scary thing, senpai.
[23:36] Haruto
    I don't really get it, but I'll be careful.
[23:38] Otori
    Please do.
SIGN    See you next week!
