Gingaza Chapter 1 Episode 5: Gingaza's Cinderella

Reporter: Today's Red Circle Featured Corner focuses on "Cinderella" by Gingaza! So, we are pleased to welcome you to the show!

Reporter: Now, please give us your enthusiasm! Let's start with Lilja.

Lilja: Look at me as much as you want. I want you to be excited by my beauty.

Xue: Hey, Hikari, if you’re the prince then say something.

Hikari: Um! I want the little ones to see it! I-I'll do my best to make sure they enjoy it!

Reporter: Hmmm...so it's arranged for children. Unlike in the past, did you have a lot of difficulties?

Koyomi: Yes, it's difficult to keep children entertained. That's why we’re very careful with things. Right, Xue?

Xue: Yeah, yeah. If it's not exciting, they get bored easily. I used to watch the Beijing Opera and I got bored of it really quickly.

Lilja: Maybe it would be fun to see it now?

Koyomi: Haha. That would be wonderful. If you get a chance to see it again, let's talk about your impressions together.

Reporter: That's nice, I can see how well you all get on. Isn't that right, Ramona?

Ramona: Eh!?

Koyomi: We believe in each other in Gingaza. Believe.

Ramona: (Your attitude is too different on and off camera.......)

Reporter: Well, Ramona. If it's as is customary at Gingaza, next time will be your second play. How are you feeling about it?

Ramona: I'm looking forward to the next one, but Cinderella is first. I will do my best to deliver an emotional performance.

Reporter: Gingaza’s performance of Cinderella will finally open next week! Let's return to the studio!

Lilja: Ramona, are you becoming a bit gaunt? You look a little less beautiful.

Ramona: I get tired when I think about doing that every time......

Ramona: More importantly, don't you have a pep rally before the main performance? Don't you all usually get together and get into the spirit of things?

Koyomi: There's no need for familiarity. This is Gingaza.

Ramona: Don't you think friendship makes a play better? I think we have to get to know each other better to increase the range of expression in our acting.

Xue: It's a waste of time, socialising.

Liliya: I don't mind if we socialise in the nude. That would be the pursuit of beauty. What about you, Hikari?

Hikari: I......really want to get together with everyone. But right now I need to practice. I'm not good enough......

Xue: You get it. We don't have time for this. If you want to play friendship games, go somewhere else.

Ramona: So, that’s why I’m tired. Sorry to start the morning with a depressing story.

Rinko: It's fine, it's fine. Let's eat a warm meal and forget about it. It won't taste good if it's cold. Bon appétit.

Ramona: Gingaza is a strange place. Even though they serve a warm breakfast, I didn't realise that the bond between the actors was so cold.......

Rinko: You have me, don't you?

Ramona: Yeah, thanks to Rinko, the food is good.

Rinko: Then I'm glad.

Ramona: (But this exchange also seems to be 'friendship games'. Even though I’m being saved by Rinko's kindness......)
