Really...?

Your class is making a film?

Yeah, we are.

Something about making the most of our youth or whatever...

I do agree with that.

Making a film as a class certainly sounds like fun!

So, what kinda film are you making? Have you guys already decided?

Yup! An action film!

Oh, action! That sounds wonderful!

What's the story going to be like?

So, it's a post-apocalyptic setting...

P-Post-apocalyptic...?

Everyone's struggling to get enough food to eat, and these Dark Cooks go around hoarding everything for themselves!

That's where the Wandering Cook comes in.

He fights against the Dark Cooks to bring delicious food to all those who really need it!

I see...

That's quite a unique plot.

But I think it's kinda cool...

A wandering hero battling against evildoers is romantic to say the least!

So, Akito, Shiraishi, how will you be assisting?

We're both gonna be acting in it!

I'll be the girl who the Wandering Cook tries to save! And can you guess who Akito's playing...?

He's the lead!

Wh-Whaaat?!

H-He's the lead...?!

Why are you guys making a fuss about it...?

Of course we are!

Getting to be the lead is a huge deal!

Actually, Akito, I think you're going to make for a wonderful hero.

Yes, I agree!

Especially since you have more guts than the average person, and a straightforward personality!

You think so...?

I'm still having trouble imagining myself as him...

I mean, I didn't really have a choice when it came to who I'd be playing...

What do you mean?

So, one of our classmates who can do stunts was originally supposed to be the lead, but it turns out that acting isn't really his thing...

He and I are the same height and build, so we decided that I'll play the lead while he does all the stunts.

I see. Now we understand.

But I think it's good that you get to be the hero now! I mean, you're probably pretty good at acting...!

Huh? What do you mean?

I mean, you know...?

Ah, because of how he acts politely around others...

Yeah, exactly!

C'mon, guys...

I do agree that you seem like a different person in those situations.

Hey, that's just me minding my manners...

What does that have to do with acting?

Haha♪

By the way, An, how do you feel about your acting chops?

Me? I dunno, but I should be fine!

I was the lead for a school play this one time when I was little!

Really...?!

That's so cool, An!

I'm so bad at acting. I always get so nervous.

How about you, Aoyagi?

Well, I remember doing a couple shows with Tsukasa when I was little...

I recall enjoying myself, but... I'm not sure about my acting skills either.

I see.

But having fun is still probably the most important thing, yes?!

She's right!

So, we hope you two have lots of fun!

We will!

Having fun is important, but we should also do our best to make our film good.

Yeah! You gotta beat up as many Dark Cooks as you can, Akito!

Uh, okay...?

Anyway, since we're doing this, we should do our best.

Agreed!
