A/N: More of Danshi Koukousei and Shoujo Kageki comedy, along with slice of life shtick. Should I have the girls and the guys on a revue? Who knows? This would be much shorter than the introduction of characters. Commence… Revue Start! This was before the guys have met the girls from Rinmeikan.


High School Boys and Ribbon/Necktie

The trio of Hidenori, Yoshitake and Tadakuni were on their way to school, talking about how bizarre it is to meet the girls from Seisho Music Academy. The brown haired male discussed how surprising Maya would be when she just went with the flow of that obnoxious short roleplay with Claudine as well, even using one of her roles. After all, she wants to be a professional actress in the near future as to why she went into broadways, professional stage acting and such. But Tadakuni didn't know is that, Yoshitake had a ribbon instead of the usual Sanada North High necktie and Hidenori was so indulged into the topic that he haven't noticed it at all. The interesting part is that, he doesn't even wear one at all.

'Eh? I have never seen Yoshitake wears a tie in school, so why a ribbon? Who even owns it?'

"Say Yoshitake."

"Hmmm?" He glanced at him before looking forward, listening to what the Largest Ham has to say.

"What do you think about the girls from Seisho Music Academy?"

"I don't know and I don't want to know." The male was so surprised that they can just act with ease because everyone of them is bizarre and quirky like them.

"They don't look bad as well." Tadakuni second-in-motioned and even agreeing to Yoshitake himself. However, what really distracting him was the ribbon itself hanging in his neck. How did he even borrow them?

'Hidenori knows them… But he seems to not care at all. Is it purple or red? He doesn't even tell that the ribbon isn't from North High!'

When they met the girls from Seisho, they weren't in their uniforms and wearing their casual attire for hanging out with each other. Though for Yoshitake, he was getting into the ride and not even bothering of who owns the ribbon that was in his neck as he doesn't have a tie (like Motoharu for example.). Tadakuni was like Mitsuo in this case because the two didn't bother about the ribbon like when Hidenori "lost" his glasses and Motoharu, along with two guys pretended that they haven't seen it at all.

"So, when are we gonna meet them again?"

"Who knows?" Hidenori shrugged and for God knows what would happen to him if he has seen them again, especially Mahiru who looked very much like the Literary girl. Tadakuni was waiting for them to notice that Yoshitake had a ribbon instead of none. Ever since their series have started, he doesn't wear one cause he found it uptight (only Hidenori and Tadakuni wears one in the main trio).

At the classroom

The trio were now greeting the guys as they didn't notice there is something wrong on the scene. Tadakuni was aware that Yoshitake has worn a ribbon that doesn't belong to him and if Mitsuo was there, he would likely be in disbelief that Sanada North High would let this dude enter the campus to which he looks like a sore thumb or a candidate of "spot the difference". They were greeted by Motoharu, who was curious about the ribbon that Yoshitake had.

"Oi Yoshitake…"

'Has Motoharu noticed a thing about it? Even if he doesn't wear a tie, he knows what's wrong with Yoshitake's attire.'

"… Is that North High's replacement for our ties?"

'That's not even in our curriculum!' Tadakuni gasped in disbelief that went he saw Mitsuo, he feels the same thing as he does. Hidenori sits down in his desk and looks at the window while trying to analyze the ribbon itself.

'Wait… I have seen that ribbon from before… Isn't that… No way?!' Before he realized it, it was too late. Yoshitake's unused tie just went into an another school. He looked at the blonde haired boy and he signal him to come into his direction..

"Oi Yoshitake… Come here…"

The boy raised his eyebrow in confusion and he just went to him before the glasses wearing teen whispered into his ear. Everyone was in a commission of who owns the ribbon but Hidenori already knew who owns it.

"Did you ever met Maya out of the blue?"

"Who?"

"That Seisho elite lady, Tendo Maya."

"I don't know who that is." Yoshitake didn't know that he met her when he wants a makeover of his uniform, especially he doesn't have a tie as they are obviously strangers. Hidenori was sweating and thinks that they exchanged it…

'If Yoshitake had Maya's ribbon… That means…'

Seisho Musical Academy (Hallway)

Before even class has started, Karen, Hikari (surprisingly) and especially Claudine were flabbergasted that Maya was wearing a necktie instead of the traditional red ribbon that they had. It even had blue slants as well which it doesn't belong to their school. The girl with a crown hairpin was trying to point out that her ribbon in her hair was the red one and not her blue violet one, which was the original version.

"Ummmm… Tendo-san?"

"Yes?" She looked at her, looking like a sore thumb thanks to that red ribbon and necktie, "What is it?"

"Didn't you notice anything?"

"Oh… You mean this tie?" She looks at it and wondering why it came to her in the first place. Claudine had tick marks on her forehead because even the ribbon color is different. She answered, "Must be from a play that I was inspired to act. I have to play as a man."

"You don't have that necktie in the first place! It looks so similar to that of Monsier Tabata Hidenori's tie!"

"Who is this Tabata Hidenori by the way?" Hikari asked, crossing her arms while not wanting to remember those "delinquent" guys that is Motoharu and Karasawa.

"A friend of Tendo Maya and she doesn't tell us about it." Claudine was getting some doubts of why they kept it a secret. No question, Maya would be misunderstood as Tabata Hidenori is a man of misunderstanding and she'll tell them when the time is right.

"Well… Tabata and I were friends for a long time before I moved and so does he." Maya only said it with a small info about her friendship with Hidenori a bit. She even knows his brother, Yuusuke who was once a prankster before he became a ringleader of the boys.

"That necktie is distracting us! Who really owns that and you don't have that at all!?"

"Hehehe… Just take a chill pill Clau-chan… Maybe she'll tell us where is get it," Karen smiles nervously and Maya is obviously not telling before she left.

"And she's gone…" Hikari droned before she finished, "… For practice."

-Yoshitake and Maya's exchange remains a mystery for both Seisho and Sanada North High.-


Stage Girls and Roleplay Part 2

The continuation of the scene where Yoshitake, Tadakuni, Junna and Nana were facing an unknown identity that was equal to aliens while they are staring and it was revealed to be… Hidenori. Junna and Nana doesn't even know who this person is as the purple haired female with glasses asked him.

"Who is this, Tadakuni-san?"

"Just pretend that he's the enemy of Hamlet that he even wanted to kill him and brought this land on a tragic end." Tadakuni deadpanned and staring at the boy like he's a ridiculous troll.

'How the fuck are you getting witty and even learn about Shakespeare?!' Hidenori couldn't believe that Tadakuni, of all people learn about the English poet and he even got all three "x's" during their bath house bonding together along with Motoharu and Karasawa. He got the penalty.

"Damn you knave! You better surrender quickly or die at my own hands!" Junna instantly believed in him and pretended to be a bow expert in this roleplay, but she's indeed a master of the weapon during her revues in Seisho. She knows that there is an enemy of the Hamlet play.

'Why do you even believe in him? Are you really indulged into the play if it involves Shakespeare?!'

"Yeah… As expected from a Shakespeare fangirl like Hoshimi." Yoshitake commented and has a deadpan look while this causes the purple haired sane girl to banter at the blonde haired male.

"And what's wrong with that?! At least that it's educational and can be used in schools!"

"Well… Junna-chan has a point though Tanaka-kun." Nana smiles nervously as she defends her and Hidenori smirked while facing the four people in the room as he crossed his arms.

"Well… You four are going to rest for a journey and preparing for the boss battle?"

"Well… Yeah, we have a gruling battle of the final boss of the mountains. Have we prepare ourseleves to this day to come?"

'We just don't care and get on which boss are you thinking right now.' Tadakuni and Junna were in sync when it comes to being the straight man of the group as Hidenori, now being Depp was gasped that the two are so in chemistry and sync that he mistook them for a couple yet again.

"Ta-Tadakuni… Wh-Who is this beautiful lady beside you? Is she your future lover?"

'Like I said, Hoshimi-san isn't my girlfriend and she only agrees with my points that I've made.' The normal boy groaned internally, facepalming at the question by Hidenori as for the purple haired girl, her face went red in embarrassment and ranting at the guy. He wasn't given a chance to explain his case because all he can hear is Junna's rants.

"Wh-Who the heck are you asking me about my friendship with Tadakuni-san?! He's a great friend and a new one as well!"

'Junna-chan and Tadakuni-kun are really a good match as a duo if you ask me. They look Bananice.' Nana smiles, looking at the two and was being playful because at least, she finally have good or even had male friends at all. Although… They didn't discover the "forbidden revue" yet as they are just doing this ridiculous roleplays.

"Wh-What?! Have you ever forgotten about me miss!? Its me… Depp! I tried to help you get along with Tadakuni!"

"I don't know a character named Depp! You are just trying to get a reaction from me and Tadakuni-san!" Junna retaliated with utter irratation that veins were popped out of her forehead as she clenched her fist like she'll break her "bow" in half.

"Don't argue, Ranger and Depp! enemies are coming in our way!" Yoshitake in "Captain's voice" facing like they'll be facing a powerful dragon in the mountains as they really are in a revue. Nana asked in a serious deep tone which she provided the eastern character.

"Can you provide some information about the monster that we'll destroy, Captain-dono?"

"Don't rush into things." Hidenori crossed his arms and he looks like that he means "business", "The dragon would likely have some amount of HP and even launching some devastating attacks that can wipe us out. We need a strategic plan to outsmart the enemy."

"Who the hell are you?!" Tadakuni asked in an increduous voice.

"The Bathouse Owner."

"Why are you even here?! You have a business to run!"

"Also, how can you even defeat monsters and went into our direction without being torned in half?!" Junna followed up Tadakuni's rant as her head is throbbing, annoyed that this might be her first time that this "play" is beyond ridiculous than ever before they have even met the boys.

"Well well Ranger-chan. Might as well that he's a veteran of war, a war general to be specific and he retired to become the bathouse owner." Nana points up and smiles in a sheepish manner which she hopes that Junna would fall for her BS lies.

'Even you are better than that Nana. Don't fall into no return and be as dumb as these boys.' The sane girl from Seisho gave her an unimpressed look, obviously not falling into her trap and crossing her arms.

"Indeed…" Yoshitake added the back up for Nana, while he does look confident when he lies just like what he did to Motoharu. He continued, "He went into a great war where the demons and humans were on a clash that there are many casualities happens during their respective kingdoms and he decided to retire, opening up a bathouse for soldiers who wants to relax and-"

"Too long for a backstory and that's load of crap!" Tadakuni and Junna screamed in unison as that story was good to be true to be a believable story that Yoshitake made which is a straight up lie. Nana and Hidenori however, were making a straight face while trying not to laugh again by the reactions of the two sane individuals of their respective franchise.

'Wh-What's that? How is Hoshimi and Tadakuni are so in timing with the straight man reaction?'

'It looks funny and cute that Junna-chan and Tadakuni-kun are trying to keep everything in check.' Nana was amused for a bit that her trusted partner on stage was actually being the center of attention, alongside with the "normal" boy.

The black haired male began to try and not becoming an item at his school due to the tsukkomi of him and Junna, especially if Hidenori and Yoshitake are here. Nana coughed a bit and wanting to continue the story, until someone screamed.

"Shut up you nitwits or I'll knock your asses again for getting my shit!"

The main trio were surprised that Imouto was gonna get their butts kicked, to which the duo of Seisho gave them a dull look because they thought of them as fun guys (especially in Nana's case) but it seems that the flaws are showing for the boys. Yoshitake and Hidenori gasped that she's here to destroy the world.

"Oh no! There it is!"

"The Demon Lord is trying to divert our attention yet again to stop against the dragon!"

'Lord, what fools these mortals be!' Junna gasped and had a pale look in shock that they are trying to excuse themselves yet again, whenever Tadakuni's Imouto by the name of Ōsaki Mei is gonna put the hurt in them.

'So that's Tadakuni-kun's little sister huh? She seems brash compared to them.' Nana imagines that she's whacking their heads, everytime they put the mischief on her.

"Wh-What about the mission, Captain-dono?!" She followed up a question.

"Forget about the mission, someone dispatched it and we would now go to the Demon Lord's castle!"

"We need Ranger-chan's long range attacks for distraction!" Hidenori, being "Jack" added the reminders.

"Then be a tank for my focus." Junna gave an unimpressed look and looking at the door. The door slide open violently, showing a short annoyed girl with orange short twintails, cracking up her knuckles to kick their asses before looking at Nana and Junna whom she haven't seen them before. Before she'll ask them, the two caused her to get distracted.

"Prepare yourself, demon!" Hidenori let out a warcry, lunging himself to her.

"Get ready to meet your maker!" Yoshitake followed in pursuit.

Mei grabbed their wrist, twisting them a bit, causing the boys to groan in pain as they tapped out. Nana flinched as slow pain was a nightmare, even in revues. Tadakuni was thinking of what he'll do about it.

"Aren't you gonna help them, Tadakuni-san?" Junna asked, also observing them of analyzing the situation. Hidenori and Yoshitake pleaded him to "save" the game before the sister looked at Hoshimi, Daiba and her brother.

"Ummmm… I heard that you two are named Hoshimi Junna and Daiba Nana right?"

"Ye-Yeah?"

"Good luck…" She means that the two shouldn't be dumb like them before adding something, "… Take care of my stupid brother too." Everyone paused, before Junna realized that the misunderstanding just went worse as she screamed and her face went abashed.

"J-Just save the game!"

-Hidenori and Yoshitake were in pain, as Nana noticed that Tadakuni and Junna were like social distancing with their red face because of the blunt misreading of the atmosphere by Tadakuni Imouto.-


High School Boy and Pairs

The sunsets are rising at the riverbank as Hidenori was reading manga on one hand, not bothering his surroundings as everytime he went here just to relax, trouble is rising yet again. Unbeknownst to him, Mahiru and an another girl is coming to the riverbank to which he was having a gut feeling of uneasiness. He pretends that he's not there and he's nothing more than a stranger. The other girl, who looks just like the girl from Seisho seems to be mistaken for a twin sister or blood related.

Unfortunately for the glasses wearing boy, his reactions went gloom and doom as it was none other than Yasunaga Karin aka Yassan who wanted to have more scripts of her light novel to become a real book. Shaking, he glanced and seeing that his nightmares went two times come to life… Mahiru and Yassan faced each other, observing and miming their actions.

'Why is Tsuyuzaki and that crazy woman here? Has God have ever forsaken me now that these two looked like long lost sisters?!"

He was crying internally comically that Yassan and Mahiru were interacting together, but only on paper which their looks was such putting him in "danger".

"Are you that girl Tabata-kun mentioned?"

"Who are you and that's the guy's name?" Yassan raised her eyebrow as to why this girl has been aware because he was obviously embarrassed and scared when the first time he met the baseball fan.

"Yes. Tabata Hidenori is his name. By the way, my name is Tsuyuzaki Mahiru. And you must be?"

"Yasunaga Karin… You can call me Yassan, Tsuyuzaki-san."

"Nice to meet you, Yassan."

Hidenori felt confused, scratching his head as he took a peek of these two that they are in the same wavelength. Trying to get up and brisk walking his way out of here, he trembled when Mahiru called the boy out.

"Tabata-kun!"

'What?! Why are you calling me out!? I just don't want to create an intense atmosphere that would put me in a very weird situation. Please… I don't want to die inside again…'

Hidenori was shaking, wanting to piss himself out when he was trying to face Mahiru and now, a grinning Yassan who finally has a partner to "back her up" just in case she'll royally failed her task. Her eyes flashed like the stars while wanting to have his words as a script.

"So, what are you two talking about the wind?"Mahiru asked Yassan via writing her white sheet of paper, curious like she wants Hidenori to be her script writer of a play as the unlucky male wants to get out of here and leave them behind.

"He's a great MC who controls the power of the wind and on the hindsight, he's a lonely introverted otaku." Yassan explained in a short context of her light novel, causing Hidenori to sweating bullets as they are like in a sisterly bond.

'Why are these two are trying to conspire each other against me?' Hidenori turned away, sitting down at the grassy plains as he gazed at the river, trying to hide his fear of the two, 'Calm down Hidenori, with Tsuyuzaki on the scene right now, She won't try to disrupt my peace.'

As usual, Mahiru and Yassan were behind him to which he had no where to run as he frozed in fear with his brain would analyze ideas on getting out of the scenario and run away like his life depends on it. His smile was trembling which in case has to think what script he'll do. His gut feeling says that both Mahiru and Yassan were sitting behind him within a few distance.

'Now even Tsuyuzaki joins in?! What is she telling her about me!? Damn it…Even if I'm an entertainer, I can't make a script right out of the bat and have the right atmosphere for you.'

Mahiru noticed that Yassan was excited yet again (based on her facial expression) that she's gonna write her light novel, with Hidenori being the script writer of what would the characters have to say.

'So she looks at Tabata-kun like he's gonna write a script for her. I wonder if we can write our own script whenever a revue occurs.'

Fidgety, Yassan was waiting of whatever Hidenori had in mind as Mahiru might have that idea implanted her head of this scenario, especially if its Karen. He decided to put his embarrassing phase yet again to give her the script of her protagonist.

'Come to think of it, Tsuyuzaki is a Stage Girl and this is pretty much normal for them to revise their script.' Ironically, that does not happen in their case or things would have gone ugly when they want to reach in the stars. He coughs up and smirked a bit, 'It is time to do my special response.'

"Today… The wind is breezy…"

'What am I doing with that lame statement? It does look stupid.'

Mahiru shakes her head and realized that Hidenori only talks what comes into his head and would likely be dramatic, like he's on stage especially when he gets expressive. The lines however is so normal that when she saw Yassan's facial expression, she was a bit disappointed.

'If Tabata-kun isn't doing well on the script, she feels down on his lines and not putting it there.'

'D-Don't remind me that my line is too dumb for a script, Tsuyuzaki…!' Hidenori's face went he noticed the expression of Mahiru's face that she's not also impressed and only observes his lines as of now. Sighing, he decided to nod and looks at the horizon.

"The wind is…", 'Come on brain… Work.'

"… Cold in Greenland.", 'That's not what I want from you, brain!'

'Wh-What are you trying to say Tabata-kun? Are you okay?' Mahiru had her face red, trying to avoid laughing his lines that doesn't make sense as she didn't expect that from him. Yassan grumbled and didn't liked his line as the countryside lady of Seisho noticed it, 'She didn't liked his script… She's expecting more, huh? What will you do, Tabata-kun?'

'Her expectations are lowering because of that line…' Hidenori had to go for a big brain moment before things go awkward and to his surprised, he came up right up to the bat, '… Come on poser phase, don't fail me now…!'

Without any care of the world, he has finally said it with such emotions, "Today… The wind becomes catalyzed.", 'That's it!'

Yassan cackled and Mahiru's face went red that she avoid bursting herself, covering her mouth. Hidenori gasped and was stiff because these "long lost sisters" was tickled by his act.

'That's… An interesting choice of words.' Those were the only thoughts Mahiru had about Hidenori's lines.


High School Girls are Funky: Confrontation

The moment that the three girls have been waiting for so long. They want to "talk" with the sly girl from Kyoto that is Kaoruko Hanayagi because of what happen to Karasawa as usual. The blue haired lady gave a bashful smile, shrugging at the trio like she doesn't even know that they exist.

"I dunno who you three are, but it seems that I ain't gettin' out of here in peace right?"

"You bet your ass that you don't get out of here in one peace!" Yanagin grinned and would put this girl in her place, accusing her of manipulating Karasawa when in actuality, she didn't do anything to harm the boy, "What did you do to Toshiyuki?! He should be our prey and not yours!"

'You only gave this woman an advantage of the situation Yanagin. Also, what do you mean prey?!' Habara sighs, wanting to be the peace maker when deep inside… She wants to rip that Hanayagi girl to shreds.

'So they just see Karasawa-han as someone to be vented out of their frustrations~ How lame~'

"Toshiyuki?" She pondered, closing her eye before getting the idea, "Oh, you mean Karasawa-han? He is an interesting fellow though~" She ignored the threats and she began to wonder, plastering a natsy smirk on her face.

'I see~ One of them is jealous that Karasawa-han isn't afraid of me~ But wait… Ugh, why is Futaba-han busy yet again?'

She can only think of one thing as to why Futaba didn't come with her for the moment. Obviously she wants to check the maintainance of her motorcycle to make sure that it won't be damaged even further. Kaoruko doesn't want her time to be wasted by these three girls yet again. Ikushima followed up the rant to where Yanagi left.

"Stop being so smug and face us you insolent bitch!"

"Do you think that Salmonella creature (Karasawa) will have his popularity increased with you around here?!" Yanagin was getting into her face, but the girl from Kyoto was making a brave face as she wants Futaba to save her from harm.

"Dunno why you girls are so salty when it comes to Karasawa-han and high school girls popularity~" She shrugged and smiled sheepishly because she might feel the dangerous aura in Habara. She can tell by the approach and even the glares that is just like multiple needles pierced into her skin.

'I'm sure that Toshiyuki-kun finds you weird as well and he would be eventually gets uncomfortable with you, Hanayagi-san.' Habara remained silent and in her mind, she wants to get rid of her. It was her "Archdemon" side that wants to fight with her and even wanted to kill her, while the "Angel" version of her would like to have some talks with her in private without Yanagin and Ikushima in the way.

Before things getting out of hand and Yanagin, alongside with Ikushima were into Kaoruko's face about the guy, Karasawa was just avoiding Habara as much as possible despite he wanted the traditional lady get out into their confusing pace. He lowered his head, wanting to not getting into the line of sight of the trio.

'How come that they found you strolling around here, Hanayagi?'

'That's my question for you Karasawa-han. Ever since Futaba-han is busy at times, I had to kill some time until they want to discuss something with me.'

Yanagin was gonna call out that Kaoruko and Karasawa were trying to get out of here as the sly girl wants to tell Futaba what happen to her with the hat wearing teen will try and "save" her from their rants and her sanity. Then again, she's a troll and she wants to trigger their rage.

Habara was pale that she might "blackmail" her by her aura and would likely have Karasawa to stay away from her as she cried.

"S-Stop! I-I don't want Toshiyuki-kun to see me as a monster…"

"Too late…" Kaoruko points at the running boy, before she left and giggling at their antics, 'Interesting trio… Futaba-han should be with me~'

Empty Stage (Underground Theater)

Without any additional comments, Elle saw that Andrew and Giraffe had saw the interesting turn events of Tadakuni and Junna, Hidenori had finally met his "shame" in form of Yassan and Mahiru so far. She nodded and thinks.

'So… It would be a scary thought that the "forbidden revue" will be revived eventually, due to it being dead for a long time ago. (1).'

The two beings have known it, but kept it a secret before things went ugly.


(1): In the mid 1940's to the mid 1950's, IRL, the Takarazuka Revue had guys on stage, but the girls protested that they'll be stuck creatively and they don't want to be going with female roles only. So, the guys and girls were separated until the male revue were disbanded.

A/N: And that's all for now. This is short because they all have been introduced. I've been doing a lot of research about it and it was rare to find it, even in Japanese websites about the deep history of the Takarazuka Revue. Had some moments of the guys and girls together (mostly comedy) and I had two schools left to introduce: Frontier and Siegfeld… So yeah, see you at the next chapter. Let me know what you think about it, in an open mind.
