Charging ahead! Nurarihyon no Mago in a School Drama-Making Memorial ( Sakigake! Nurarihyon no Mago de gakuen drama wo yattara memoiral )

[wind and footsteps] Yoru: Here, huh? Municipal All-Boys High School Nurari... from now on, this is the place where I’ll develop as man. (TL:Tsurara’s narration was hard to understand at this part, since was talking in a sort of old-fashioned way. But I could figure she was talking about men having to toughen up and how Rikuo was the same, and that was his story.) [stuff being broken] Ao: What’d ya say?! Try to say that again, you rascal!! Kuro: I’ll say it as many times you want – a blockhead that can only rely on an exaggerated physic like you is unfit to be a first-year. Ao: Heeh... then, you think you can do this, Kurotabou? Kuro: Don’t ask what you already know the answer to, Aotabou. Where do you think there’s anyone stronger than me amongst the first years... no... in this entire school? Ao: Ya wanna know? Then I’ll tell ya right now. The one much stronger than ya is right here in front of ya!! Kurotabou: Foolish sack of meat. I shall teach you a lesson!! Kubinashi: Oi, oi!! Stop quarreling, you two! Ao: SHUT UP! Don’t interrupt us, Kubinashi! Kubinashi: I can’t not do it. You know, right? Today comes a transfer student. Let’s all get along, ne? Ao: Hmph! Kuro: Be it transfer student or not, they can’t escape from our reality. Ao: That’s right! If that “Nura” kid is just another weird brat, this ain’t no place for him. Kuro: Hoh, don’t you know that very well? That must be because you’re the weirdest one around here. Ao: What did you say?! Kubinashi: Haa... it has started again... Ao: GET READY, KURO!! ORAAAA!!! Kuro: AAAAH!!! Kubinashi: Like this, no one will be able to stop the– [hitting sound] Ao/Kuro: Huh?! Kubinashi: Eh?! Rikuo: Hm... isn’t it still early for such ruckus? Kubinashi: *thoughts* It’s a lie, right?! Ao: *thoughts* He... Kuro: *thoughts* Stopped our fists... Trio: *thoughts* With dodging?! Rikuo: As the rumors say, this is a very fun-looking place... for this “Nura Rikuo kid”. Ao: Ngh... what the hell are you...?! Rikuo: Nura Rikuo. From now on, let me develop as a man here. Kuro: “Nura... Rikuo”? Kubinashi: You... could you be... the transfer student that was coming here today? Rikuo: Well, guess you could say that. Ao: Haa? What are you implying? I don’t care if you’re transferring or whatever, but hurry up and get out or I’ll smash you! Rikuo: Heh, don’t think I have to obey you or anything. Ao: What?! Rikuo: Then? Where from and what are you? Ao: Oh, I am Aotabou. I’M NURA HIGH’S NUMBER ONE STRONG GU... Kuro: Wait, Aotabou. I already told you the number one is this Kurotabou! Ao: Haa? You’re still sputtering nonsense?! Kuro: You too... Rikuo: Oi, oi... either way is fine for such thing, right? Anyways, if people like you are the number ones, this school’s no big deal... Kubinashi: Ugh?! Ao: What did you saaay...?! Kuro: Underestimating me... UNFORGIVABLE! Rikuo: Alright. Come. The two of you. Ao: Grr... DON’T MESS AROUND!!! *launches forward* Kuro: *does the same thing* Kubinashi: Ao!! Kuro!! [hitting sound] Kuro: Agh!! *falls* Ao: Aaaugh!! Hah...! *falls too* Kuro: The two of us... Ao: Ugh...! Rikuo: Well, just like that? Kubinashi: This dude... by himself... really defeated Ao and Kuro...! Rikuo: Anyhow... it’s settled like this, right? From now on, the strongest first year is... this me. Tsurara’s narration: And so, that was how Nura Rikuo congregated true men and took a big step at Nurari Koukou. After Rikuo transferred and defeated the enemies called Aotabou and Kurotabou, other fearful enemies started coming to him, one after the other. [motorcycle horns] Rikuo: How many of you are here doesn’t matter! If it’s either 100 or 200 of you, doesn’t concern me! Cowards that can’t stand on your own feet... aren’t fit to be my enemies. [motorcyclists start surrounding Rikuo] Rikuo: These guys... Kubinashi: RIKUOOO! Rikuo: Hoh?! [Kubinashi, Kuro and Ao come running] Kubinashi: We’ll fight too, Rikuo! Rikuo: Kubinashi... and you guys...! Ao: Oi, don’t misunderstand. It’d just be troublesome if something happened to ya here. The one who’s gonna defeat you... is this me!! Kuro: An entire group against one... there’s no way I can’t forgive something so unfair! Rikuo: Ao... Kuro...! Kubinashi: Let’s do it, Rikuo! Rikuo: Hmph. Aah. Let’s go, YOU GUYS!! Tsurara’s narration: The motorcycle group members, from the Gagoze alliance, were powerful enemies. However, the one of Rikuo and the first years outshone theirs. And then... Rikuo: *scrolling* “For the students of Nurari High School, we’re calling you out to settle things between us, three days from now. The four fearless ones should come to Jigoku Doujou (Hell Dojo) after class. –From Hebidayuu”. Kuro: “From Hebidayuu”? It can’t be, those guys... Ao: You know them, Kurotabou? Kuro: Hm... they’re said to be merciless killers that formed some sort of assassination group. It seems they have pleasure in committing inhuman acts against others. That’s what I heard from the Gedou group. Ao: W-what did you say...? Rikuo: Fear not, you guys. I’ll just go there and finish everything quickl... Kubinashi: Wait, Rikuo. You’re going alone again? I won’t forgive that. Rikuo: Heh... what’s gonna happen if you don’t forgive me? Kubinashi: I say we... go the four of us together. Rikuo: No way... you... Ao: I’m going too, Rikuo. Rikuo: Ao? Kuro: And with me... we’re four. Rikuo: Kuro... Kubinashi: We’ll follow you anywhere, Rikuo. Because, we’re... nakama, right?  Rikuo: Hm... it can’t be helped, right? Let’s go... you bunch of idiots. Trio: Ou!! Tsurara’s narration: After receiving the challenge letter from Hebidayuu, Rikuo and his nakama formed their strong bonds. Moreover... *sounds of wind and earth shaking* Kuro: *falls* Aaah! *grabs onto something* Rikuo: Kuro!! Kubinashi: Kurotabou! Kuro: Gh... Rikuo: Take my hand! I’ll pull you up in an instant! Kuro: Don’t mind me, Rikuo! Hurry up and climb this mountain! Towards where that Kyuuso bastard is!  Rikuo: Idiot! And leave my nakama behind!? To fall from this height, even someone like you would... Kuro: I’m telling you to leave! Right now, what matters is to fight that Kyuuso bastard and earn our victory! For that sake, I’d offer my life if necessary!  [landslip] Kuro: Ugh! Kubinashi: Kuro!! Kuro: *falling* MAKE SURE TO WIN, RIKUOOO!! Rikuo: KUROOO!! I’M GONNA SAVE YOU RIGHT NOW!! Kubinashi: Wait, Rikuo! Rikuo: Why are you stopping me, Kubinashi?!? Kubinashi: We can’t save Kurotabou anymore! Let’s go by ourselves! Rikuo: Oah...?! You... are you serious? Kubinashi: Obviously! We don’t have time for trivial matters! Rikuo: What did you say?!! You!! *punches him* Kubinashi: Gah...! *falls back* Rikuo: It wasn’t just Kuro, but even Ao... and other first years, too... became sacrifices when coming here... so that we could go forward. Even so, you... don’t feel anything? Kubinashi: I don’t. Rikuo: What?! Kubinashi: Now, let’s go. If we stop here... if we... stop here... Rikuo: Kubinashi... Kubinashi: This way... Ao, Kuro... would have sacrificed themselves in vain... Rikuo: You’re... crying... Kubinashi: Your punch hurt that much, that’s why... heh... Rikuo: My bad... Kubinashi. Kubinashi: There are things you need to do before apologizing, right? For Ao and Kuro’s sake... we’ll defeat that Kyuuso bastard! Rikuo: Yeah! Tsurara’s narration: After the tragic parting with his nakama, he defeated the darkness-lurking Kyuuso. By then, Rikuo thought he had no more enemies. However... [tempest] Tsurara’s narration: The last and worst of the enemies, who controlled Nurari High School from the shadows, the great king of terror, revealed himself before Rikuo. [thunder] Kuro: Here, huh... the castle where the third years are at... Ao: Where the elite men in Nura high gather... the top third-year monsters are... in here... Kubinashi: Huh? Don’t Ao and Kuro seem strangely okay? Ao: Uh... SHUT UP! And are you fine with this, Kubinashi? Kubinashi: I’m fine! Because... there’s no way Rikuo would lose. Ao/Kuro: *sigh* Kubinashi: Right, Rikuo? Rikuo: Hm. Even though we’ve come this far, no matter what, nothing happens. In any case, let’s take a look inside. [creaking door being opened] Kuro: Hm? The path has... Kubinashi: Guess it means the preparations are ready, huh? Rikuo: Then, shall we make our move? Let’s go! [steps and door being opened] Group: *gasps* Gyuuki: You have arrived... little ants. Ao: Aah?! H... HIGH...! Kuro: Such height... he’s in a completely different angle from ours! Kubinashi: It can’t be... like this... Rikuo: Don’t act like you’ve already lost, you lot! Trio: *gasps* Gyuuki: Fufufufufufu... There’s at least a brave one. Rikuo: I’m Nura Rikuo. You’re the third year guy... Gyuuki? Gyuuki: Hmph. You’ve come this far just to get to know me? Looks like you don’t need your own lives. [thunder] Rikuo: You guys, step aside. He and I will settle things by ourselves. Ao: You, alone, against that freak...?! Kuro: Don’t overdo it, Rikuo! Rikuo: I’m not overdoing anything. I’ve come to this Nura High with the intention of developing into a man. For the sake of becoming this place’s number one man... I’ll defeat him. Kubinashi: Rikuo...!! Gyuuki: Fufufufufufu... “Win against me”? Hmph! Says the ant! Fine... mightiest third-year Gyuuki will show you no mercy. Hmmm!! *gets up* Ao: This guy...! He was already huge just sitting! Kuro: Such size... is he really a high-scholar?! Kubinashi: I wanna believe, but... can you win, Rikuo?! Rikuo: Believe, Kubinashi. Watch it... I’ll win with a single strike. Gyuuki: Hoo~? Funny. I was actually thinking the same thing. I’ll turn you into dust... in a second! UUUUOOOOAAAAAAGH!! Kuro: T-this technique is...! Ao: You know it, Kuro?! Kuro: I’ve heard about it. According to tales from China, Ba-haro is a fighting energy that resides within everyone. The concept was brought and incorporated into Tokyo and consists in making said energy return to its original concentrated form and used as an attack. That’s something the Onmyou-shogun from China have been trying to keep as a secret. Kubinashi: Wait!! If it’s Rikuo, he won’t lose!! Rikuo: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... Kuro: T-this technique is...! Rikuo: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... Ao: You know it, Kuro?! Rikuo: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... Kubinashi: I’ve heard about it. According to tales from China of the third decade, it’s said that if one can keep their voice up for longer than anyone, they’ll be able to collect the space around them and open a dimension wall. It’s used as a last resource in a situation of despair, and will combine the limit break of the person in said situation of despair into a blow. That’s something the Onmyou-shogun from China used as basis for Yakiniku Toushoku and Yakiniku Teishoku. Rikuo: ...Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah... a-aah... a-ah... *takes deep breaths* Ao: Aah, seriously?? Rikuo can use such amazing technique?! Kubinashi: Oi, oi, oi... where did you learn all of that? Kuro: I guess you could say he had vast knowledge... my last leader. Gyuuki: UUUUOOOOAAAAAAGH!! Rikuo: Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaah... Ao: *gasps* The power of the two has become immense!! Kuro: It’s very unpredictable what happens... once these two forces... clash...!! Kubinashi: Please win, Rikuo...!! Gyuuki: Let’s go, ANT! Rikuo: Come, Gyuuki... Kubinashi: Rikuo!! R/G: UWOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! Kubinashi: Woah?!! [explosion] Gyuuki: Gyuu... kh...?! Kuro: This is...!! Ao: A bunch of earth?! Kuro: No! Wrong! Rikuo: *gasps and rises from the pile of wreckage on him* Aaah...!! Ao: *gasps* Gyuuki bastard...! Kuro: Rikuo... stood up before he did... Kubinashi: Win... IT’S RIKUO’S WIN!! Rikuo: *pants* I told you, right? That I’d defeat this guy. Kubinashi: *runs to him* Rikuooo! *hugs him* Rikuo: Ooh?! Kubinashi: You did it! You did it, Rikuo! Rikuo: Damn... don’t cling to me... Kubinashi: I believed, Rikuo! That you’d win!! Rikuo: Idiot... the one who won wasn’t me. Kubinashi: Eh? Rikuo: The ones who won... were us, right? Kubinashi: *cries* Rikuo... you idiot...! Rikuo: *starts laughing* Kubinashi: *starts laughing* Tsurara’s narration: And so, Rikuo became the number one man in Nura High. However, it didn’t mean Rikuo’s battle ended there. There would surely be many more enemies standing before him in the future. More bloody fights of men against men would come... would come... khhh... Tsurara: *holds tightly onto the novel papers and rips them* N’aaah, mou! What is this?! I don’t want any more of it! Kubinashi: Wai—Yuki Onna, the novel I had taken so long to write...! Tsurara: Kubinashi, that’s not the sort of thing I want to do! Kubinashi: But... this thing about doing Gakuen Drama was your idea! We were finally able to record a DVD together, and you just come up saying you don’t want to do it? Tsurara: This isn’t the sort of Gakuen Drama I wanna do! Only men, hot action, not to mention, too many fights!! Kubinashi: But... the human manga I read was like this... Tsurara: Besides, there’s no place for me! Kubinashi: Because... it’s about growing into a man... well, even I... think it was a little too much...  Tsurara: Anyways, no! Definitely not! As I thought... what about I write the scenario? Kubinashi: That’s fine, but... will it be okay?
