Chapter SS3.1 - Strange Grief Wants to be Recorded (Live Version)
Tino: Master~! It is finally time for our anime debut!
Cry: Un, un, that’s right.
We were gathered on the 4th floor of Clan House for some anime-related work. To put it simply, anime is something like a play.
Cry: The members who were called today are strange, but why us four?
Eva: That is what the other party requested. They want a picture of all four of you together.
Liz: Mmh… I can still understand me, Syt and Cry-chan, but even Ti was chosen, what a strange request. Moreover, Luke-chan and the others weren’t called…
Sytry: No, wait a second… Maybe the anime is going in a different direction.Cry: Direction?
Sytry: Yes, maybe the theme will not be an adventure. If it was an adventure, it would be strange for the other members not to be invited.
Cry: Now that you said it, I heard a lot about it being made into an anime, but I left the anime’s details to Eva.
Eva: Right… Now that you said it, if I had to choose the story would be more of a comedy. By the way, although Luke-san and the other haven’t been invited, they will still appear.
Cry: Comedy!? Eh, it is going to be a comedy!? I don’t know what kind of story it will be, but it seems much more interesting than a normal adventure story. After all, if it is a normal adventure story it seems like our Party’s reputation will be damaged.
Sytry: I see, a comedy, you say… A comedy… And based on the member that was called for this time photo shoot, we can deduce that… Ah, I figure it out! The anime this time is definitely a harem romantic comedy!
Tino: H-Harem romantic comedy!?
Liz: Hh!? Syt did you eat something weird?
Sytry: ♪ Mhm… ♪
Cry: I see… Mmh, mmh… A harem romantic comedy, huh… In other words, it looks like today’s Sytry is the no-good one…
Sytry: If you think about it that way, it makes sense why Lucia-chan, your Imouto wasn’t invited. I can also agree with why Luke-san and Onii-chan weren’t invited, they are unnecessary members, after all…… Onii-chan is too big and it will feel weird, and Luke-san seems like he would get in the way. Right, Ti-chan?
Tino: Argh… Hah… Erm… I don’t think that is the case… Master~…
Cry: Mmh? Mmh, mmh… Liz?
Liz: Hmm, I agree that in a romantic comedy, they might be a nuisance. They are a bit tiring.
Cry: So cruel.
Sytry: Cry-san is the main character and I am the heroine. Onee-chan is the losing heroine and if pick 2 or 3 heroines from random places, we can easily make a harem romantic comedy. This will be a great achievement.
Liz: Who the hell did you call losing heroine, you bitch! No matter how you see it, I’m the heroine!
Tino: E-Erm, Sytry Onee-sama, what about me…?
Sytry: For Ti-chan, you will play the role of the thieving cat who tries to steal Cry-san away. Now do a nyaa sound.
Tino: NYAN!? …… Nya.
Eva: E-Everyone, calm down.
Cry: Apparently everyone is looking forward to the anime. Their excitement is different from usual. But even so, the idea of a harem is a bit of a big leap. I know, it could be a horror! With Sytry as the role of the ghost.
Sytry: Eh!? *Cough Cough* My grudge cannot be put to rest! Who the hell took my man!?
Eva: Wh-What kind of ghost is that?
Cry: It might be a scary horror type, like with a shark or a monster.
Sytry: Eh… Shaaaaakushaaa, kushaa, kushaa… Killkilkilkil, I will catch you all grrr!
Eva: What just came out!?
Cry: Or it might be a school setting. It seems Tino is there too.
Tino: Hah! Master~senpai! Your classes are over right? Let’s go home together!
Cry: She might be the dean.
Tino: Argh! *Cough cough* Master~kun is a wonderful student with excellent academic performance.
Cry: Ah, or maybe a delinquent.
Tino: Fue!? Th-This is totally outrageous… Erm… Master~kun should be nicer to your kouhai or that ain’t good!
Eva: Cry-san, are you playing around? Excuse me, it is about time to take the picture…
Cry: No, but since it is a comedy, it might be a heartwarming comedy about interacting with animals. Liz is here too.
Liz: Ah! Woof! Kyukyukyukyu! Guryaaa! Bruuuhi! Bruscoo!
Eva: She isn’t even playing a human role!? Rather what kind of animal are you playing!?
Cry: Or maybe she might be a robot.
Liz: Biip… Gatchan, gatchan, gatchan, gatchan… Gruui… So, this is, tears… I, too, gave become human.
Eva: I-It looks like there is some kind of backstory… Well, we don’t have much time left, so let’s get to the main topic now…
Cry: Everyone’s acting is so convincing. If this is the case, any genre will be fine. Ah right! It might be a crime thriller with Eva as the Boss.
Eva: You bastard! How long do you intend to make this Eva-sama wait? Leave your stupid talk for later. If you value your life, then stop lining up and get in position! Let’s end this damn shooting.
Eva: Say cheese!
