One Resolution
Hikari: Ah, Ramo-san. Um......
Ramona: I'm back. Sorry for making you worry.
Hikari: Really? You didn't get kicked out after fighting with sensei......?
Ramona: No, I would never leave my beloved Gingaza.
Xue: Don't cause any more trouble. Everyone's already on edge as it is.
Ramona: We have something to say to everyone about that. Right, Koyomi?
Koyomi: ......I have something to say to you all as the leader of the troupe. Please forgive me for speaking so presumptuously.
Koyomi: I am the leader of this play, Senju Koyomi.
Koyomi: All I have to do is to make 'Macbeth' a success. By succeeding, I will protect the Saint-Claud star.
Koyomi: And......
Koyomi: I will be a guide in aiming for innovation while protecting tradition. I believe in what I have done so far and in my own beliefs.
Lilja: Hmm......Koyomi......?
Gingaza Members: Wait, Senju-san is saying something. Be quiet.
Koyomi: As you know, Gingaza is currently being questioned about the need for change. You may also be confused and worried about what you should do.
Koyomi: I admire you all for having ambition even when you are in a difficult situation, and for working hard at your training day and night, giving it your all.
Koyomi: We want to aim higher, to create even more excitement. As the lead actor, I share your strong enthusiasm.
Ramona: Koyomi...
Koyomi: However, theatre is a collective art. We all have to face in the same direction and move forward. So let me show you the path we should take.
Ramona: Tell me. What is the path we should take?
Koyomi: ......We have something that other theatre companies don't have. The knowledge of high-quality stage production that has been passed down from our predecessors.
Koyomi: This has created many moving moments, regardless of the changing times. Even if it goes against the flow of the times, it has continued to illuminate the world.
Koyomi: This the tradition that has made Gingaza Gingaza. It has survived to this day despite being repeatedly tested by the trials of time.
Koyomi: It is precisely because the world is changing that it continues to remain the same. I think that is also what attracts people to us.
Koyomi: I believe in the knowledge of those who have built Gingaza. A new, changing Macbeth.
Koyomi: So if you are still unsure. If you are troubled by feelings that you can't find a place to express.
Koyomi: Please entrust your passion to me, the leader...... No, please entrust it to the new and changing Macbeth.
Ramona: I understand your point. Let me just confirm one thing.
Ramona: The tradition we must protect has definite value, right?
Koyomi: ......Yes.
Koyomi: It is my mission and resolve to demonstrate that value. I don't want to disappoint those who have left.
Ramona: I see.
Gingaza Members: Now that Senju-san has said that, there's no time to be worrying. Maybe we can give this new direction a try......!
Hikari-san: Koyomi-san is so cool......!
Lilja: ......Yeah.
Xue: Hmph, that's to be expected of the leader.
Xue: Well, that's settled then. Let's continue with the rehearsals!
Ramona: ......Damn.
Ramona: (I agree with you about wanting to preserve the tradition. But it's not something you should have to carry alone, is it?)
Ramona: No, I have no right to say anything to you now......
Chief Director: ......
Koyomi: (We'll compete with the traditions we've preserved. That's the way of Gingaza. But even so, this production of Macbeth changes those traditions slightly.)
Koyomi: It can't be helped, since it's our goal. After giving that speech, I'm being contradictory…...
Playwright: Senju-san, may I have a word?
Chief Director: I have something to say.
Koyomi: Um, how can I help you, sensei? If I made an inappropriate speech, I apologise.
Chief Director: It's not your fault. It's our responsibility for not being able to dispel the actor’s anxiety.
Chief Director: I promise you, no matter how this 'Macbeth' turns out, you actors will not be cut loose.
Playwright: Please leave the trouble to the adults and rest assured.
Koyomi: Thank you, teacher.
Chief Director: This time's ‘Macbeth’. I know it's hard for you, but are you sure you want to take it on?
Koyomi: Yes. I'll make this ‘Macbeth’ a success. I have no intention of ending the Gingaza tradition.
Koyomi: Excuse me.
Chief Director: ......
Playwright: She’s starting to look like her mother.
Chief Director: She’s inherited her mother's determination......
