Aiming High
Xue: (Gingaza’s performance of Snow White.)
Xue: (The leading role, Snow White, is played by Lilja. She is flanked by Gingaza's leading actors.)
Xue: (The first day of the performance. The Ginga Theatre was packed to capacity.)
Xue: (The show was an impeccable success.)
MC: Today we have Kurtbay and Senju as our guests. We're going to talk to you. Let's start with the impressions of the audience.
MC: I was captivated by the gorgeous stage that only Gingaza can offer! The seven dwarfs were so cute!
MC: Among the audience, the most common impression was that it was a completely new Snow White. The bewitching and ephemeral world created by Kurtbay-san was brilliant!
Lilja: I have dyed it with my beauty again......
Koyomi: Yes, that’s right......
MC: There's also been a lot of talk about Senju's makeover. Last time you played Kaguyahime, and this time you play the stepmother, which is an amazing swing.
Koyomi: It was a challenge even for me. I'm relieved to hear that you liked it.
MC: We're going to talk to you both after the commercial-
Xue: Are those two the only ones they’re going to talk to? Damn media......
Hikari: Oh! Kamira-chan and Panda-chan are complimenting me too! They said the dwarve’s dancing was cute!
Ramona: It wasn't long since the performance, but the reviews were great. With this, the reputation of Gingaza…...
Ramona: Xue, what's wrong? You seem displeased.
Xue: I'm not unhappy. Don't make assumptions about my feelings.
Xue: (The performance itself was so well received that additional performances were decided. The response to the role of the dwarf was good.)
Xue: (However, it was Lilja and Koyomi that stole the spotlight. If you're just one of the seven, no one will pay attention to you.)
Lilja: ......Yeah. After all, TV can't compete with the beauty of the real thing.
Hikari: Huh? Lilja is on TV and she's here!? Twins!? Or a clone technique!?
Xue: It's just a recorded broadcast. Mostly, it would be depressing if there were two that stood out so much.
Ramona: Lilja, now you’re home, why don't you have dinner with us?
Lilja: Wait a bit. I'll tell everyone back in my hometown.
Lilja: ......I'm sure they'll be delighted.
Hikari: If I were your mother, I would be jumping for joy!
Lilja: I hope so. I was the star of the show.
Xue: .............
Xue: (Am I the only one who hasn’t played a leading role recently……?)
Xue: (No, don't panic. You’ve still got a long way to go. Get rid of your arrogance and indulgence and concentrate on the performance.)
Xue: (You decided to succeed here at Gingaza, didn't you? That day, when you rejected the scout......)
