Chapter 18 (1/2)
”… Please manage with your acting skills.”
”Impossible, right?”
”There are some actors who play middle school roles when they are twenty, since there is only a three-year difference for you it should be okay.”
Well, I often see middle school and high school students being played by adult actors, but I wonder if the reverse happens often.
Which is better, to have an adult actor play as a middle school student or have an elementary schooler play the role of a middle school student?
”Long time no see Nana-chan”
”No, we saw each other the day before yesterday and I see that you got a hair-cut.”
I came to the drama meet the week after next and met Momiji-san. I did acting lessons the day before yesterday, so two days ago. Speaking of which the drama performance was finalised, and that was why I was eagerly attending lessons. Momji-san cut her hair from twin-tails to a short-cut that doesn't reach her shoulders. The twin-tails looked nice, but Momiji-san with short hair is refres.h.i.+ng.
”Yeah, I didn't think that they matched the role… Twin-tails are a bit childish.”
”Wow, is your role that of a teacher?”
”Ahaha, I am also a student, didn't you hear that?”
For some reason or another a certain university town teacher comes to mind. I wonder if it would really be better for her to be a student. Momiji-san has no problem with age for playing a teacher role, but she does look more like a middle school student. (TN: Legal loli?)
Looking at the meeting room, most seem to be quite young, except for Momiji-san. I was wondering what to do if all the co-stars were adults, but it is good that I am not the only young one.
By the way, Momiji-san is familiar with elementary school students. (TN: Hur Hur.)
”Then, what role do you have?”
”Tsukis.h.i.+ma Suzu-chan is who I am playing.”
Momiji-san says while putting her thumbs up, she is a beautiful girl as long as she keeps her mouth shut. A slender figure with a short-cut dressed in stylish urban clothing, Tsukis.h.i.+ma Suzu.
”Nana-chan is the main heroine after all?”
”No, I am playing Kas.h.i.+gawi Haruka.”
