Takeuchi Ryoma no Satsukyu (Takeuchi Ryoma Filming Break / Ryoma Takeuchi's Filming Break / 竹内涼真の撮休)

Ah... Kominato-san, Kominato-san. I'm sorry. It's kind of sudden but

tomorrow... - Yes, filming break, right?

- Eh? Ah.. Did anyone tell you that? - No, I just know.

Ah, let me explain...

- I'll be sure to tell Ryoma. - It's not much...

Takeuchi Ryoma.

- "Ship of Theseus" was great. - "Ship of Theseus."

- Aaah! - Um, um...

- Can I get your autograph? - Autograph?

- Hold this for me. - Here, here...

- I'm signing... - Ah... Ah...

Eh? This is so cool! Really cool! Seriously cool!

YA! YA!!!

- Ah! Ah... Please. - Say cheese. Say cheese...

Hey, hey, hey, sorry. Yes, sorry.

Yes, No pictures, please. Hey, no pictures... yes, come on.

Thank you very much.

Yes, yes, Ryoma. Yes, Ryoma. Yes, yes, Ryoma. Yes, Ryoma.

Yes, Ryoma. Come here. Come here. Yes, Ryoma.

- I know it's sudden, but... - Yes?

Tomorrow's a filming break.

Eh? A filming break?

You can't go out tonight.

Yeah, that's okay, though... Filming break, huh?

ECOTV Presents

Ryoma Takeuchi's filming break

And so the following day...

Takeuchi Ryoma and

Takeuchi Ryoma

Ah... You are so gross. Hey...

You're the worst.

Ah...

Poem of Light

Wow... This brings back memories.

You ate pizza again?

Hey...

Why didn't you come home yesterday?

I'm sorry. I just...

Just a little bit.

Oh, no... it's almost noon.

Hiroshi-san, if you didn't come home, I won't be able to go out.

That's why I said I'm sorry. I'm sorry, okay?

Wait, you didn't, did you?

- You didn't take pictures today, did you? - Yep.

Wait… I wore that hideous get-up...

Stop it...

It's weird... Come on...

Poster: Angel of Darkness

- Is this you? - Huh?

So this is what you've been up to?

What?

I already told her not to put it on the Internet.

Hey... Can you please stop smirking?

No, you're the one who's smirking.

Because your fans are really into it.

That's exactly like

"The Walking Dead."

Hiroshi-san, I'm not this kind of character.

But "Ship of Theseus" was really a big hit.

Because it was such a good performance.

- By me. - Yes.

Thank you very much for that.

- Well, I'm going back in. - If you please.

It's a lot harder than you think. It's very physical.

My back hurts already.

All right, I'm going in.

I heard that a new model was recently released.

You know, something not so big that you can carry around.

What did you say?

So they made a new model, same manufacturer.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I saw it online, and the design was pretty good,

and it looks like you won't have to wear that bodysuit anymore.

Eh...

But if it's evolving, that means there's a demand for it.

I think more people are using it. Hey.

So how'd it go? The kissing scene.

Ah, sorry. I made mistakes.

- Eh? - No, because it's Matsumoto Marika.

- It makes me nervous. - No, no, no. Please.

They'll think I'm a bad kisser.

- Hmm... It's hard. - No, no, no...

- There's still a kissing scene, right? - Yeah, that's right.

No, no, no...

There's also a bed scene.

It's not good.

- Here. - Yes.

Excuse me.

Um... I wanted to talk to you, Hiroshi-san.

Huh?

Well, actually,

I've been thinking about it for a while... - You want to end the contract now, don't you?

Yes, that's right.

How long has it been since I replaced you?

Since "Kamen Rider Drive,"

so it's been about six years.

Hmm... Is it that long already?

Yeah, I guess so.

No, but I've been meaning to ask you...

Why did you choose to do this job?

- A ghost actor. - Ah...

At first, I was ordered by the office to be

a ghost actor for a junior colleague.

Well, from my point of view,

I'm jealous that you're cool,

but also greedy that you want to be considered an actor.

No, no...

But the fact that

you've given me an image as a skilled actor...

It really helped me. I appreciated it.

Thank you very much.

Huh? I'm still going to do it.

- Eh? - Because I enjoy being Takeuchi Ryoma.

They spoil me so much in the field.

No, but we're good now.

Um... let's finish this one.

So can we at least wait until the next one?

Gakky - Aragaki Yui

Next, it's with Gakky. - No, no...

I think you clearly have an ulterior motive.

No, I don't. I'm doing this for your own good!

No, we can't.

I've already talked to the office and got their okay.

Thank you very much.

I'm going to take a shower and head out.

Ah, wait a minute.

- Ah, w... wait... wait... - What? What? What is it?

- Okay, I'll think about the contract. - Good.

Can you do me one favor?

What is it?

Umm... Why don't you give me the rest of the day off today?

Huh?

Well...

Let me be Takeuchi Ryoma for the rest of the day.

No, no, I can't.

Because this is a work-only contract, isn't it?

Well, that's true, but... please.

No, no, you can't.

- You can't. You can't. - Please.

No, no, no, no... Eh?

No, no...

Eh? What? Eh... Do you have some kind of plan?

Y... Yes.

Well, you know, I have a date.

Date?

No, no... Eh? What do you mean?

Eh? With who?

What?

- Whoa, no way... - Yes.

- Matsumoto Marika. - No, no, no, no, no!

Absolutely not!

She had something important to tell me, and she sent me a text just now asking me out,

so I said okay. - You shouldn't have said okay.

Then what're you gonna do about the date today?

There's nothing to do... I have no choice but to go.

- You can't do that! - No, you can't say no.
