Chapter 112 - Sports Meet, Commence (1/2)
“Alright. I guess Akagi is okay too.”
Meng Fan knew his body shape had been a consideration. Although he had lost a sufficient amount of weight, he was still far from being lean and muscular.
Wang Ya Nan finally found what she was looking for. Taking out a white wig, a white stick-on mustache and a pair of glasses. She handed them to Meng Fan. “You’re Coach Anzai.”
Meng Fan felt queasy. “I’m skinner, SKINNIER okay? Can’t you give me a role that’s not fat? It’s been three years!”
Wang Ya Nan pointed to Zhang Zhou Wei, who had been squatting in the corner, questioning his life. “Then go trade with him.”
Meng Fan curiously walked over, kicking Zhang Zhou Wei lightly. “What are you? Why does it feel like someone did that to you!”
Zhang Zhou Wei looked at Meng Fan, and there was a blank expression on his face. Moving is a bummer, he revealed his props. Meng Fan was stunned. “The basket?”
Zhang Zhou Wei wanted to struggle, but seeing Wang Ya Nan, who had been distributing the props, he gave up and admitted defeat. Why did his girlfriend have to play a role like this?!
“Are you going to switch?”
Wang Ya Nan finished giving out the props and looked to Meng Fan.
Meng Fan shook his head frantically. “Coach Anzai is okay, at least he’s alive. At least…” Meng Fan pointed to all the guys who were assigned a basketball uniform and a red wig. “These plebs have to call me dad.”
To be honest, Meng Fan thought he was most suitable to cosplay Kuroko.
“Dad!”
The guy cosplaying Sakuragi ran over undoubtedly. He reached to touch Meng Fan’s chin, which Meng Fan did not shy from. He gave him the satisfaction of brushing his chin twice.
Wang Ya Nan clapped her hands together, notifying everyone to look over. “Our theme this year is basketball. Aside from the players from “Slam Dunk” and “Kuroko no Basuke”, all the other people will act as cheerleaders.”
All the boys had been assigned roles as basketball players, like Xing Ta Ge who was cosplaying Rukawa Kaede. The girls cosplayed the managers and other female characters, such as Haruko, Ayako, Rukawa’s cheer squad, Satsuki Momoi, Riko Aida, etc.
The rest were free to choose. Either way, it did not matter if the characters were holding pom-poms, which were actually cheerleaders or not, as long as the setting made sense and the scene looked harmonious.
As for Zhang Zhou Wei… He actually had another role to choose from, an important one as well. Tetsuya #2 from “Kuroko no Basuke”.
But in the end, he chose to be a basket!
Although the basket would be smashed by the actors during the opening ceremony, at least he won’t have to bark!
Besides, the basket was the most part of the opening performance. Of course, someone had to cosplay it. Yes. This was how Zhang Zhou Wei consoled himself.
Wang Ya Nan spoke of the procedure for the opening ceremony, then began their rehearsal. The contents were simple, except for Zhang Zhou Wei’s role of the basket, who had to accept the baptism from the basketball cosplayers.
“Ya Nan, I thought about it, I think the role of Tetsuya #2 fits me more!”
…
October 15th, the opening ceremony kicked off in the golden hours of autumn.
At 8 o’clock, the representatives from each department began entering to the background music of “March of the Athletes”.
Athlete representatives?
Of course not. How can there only be athlete representatives? It was impressive enough for one-third of the strange people in colorful costumes to be athletes. In other campuses, there might be a larger population of athletes, but for an event hosted at the south campus, the proportions of athletes would be much lower.
For example, all five years of Meng Fan’s department, the freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior, and graduate students marched out. All members dispatched!
After discussing it, the animation department settled on sports cosplay as their theme. The freshmen’s theme was tennis, the sophomores football, the juniors basketball, and seniors baseball.
The graduate students were certified badass. They all cosplayed as hip hop girls from “Keijo!”
The Keijo girls was an overhead sport. It tells of the story of a competitive girl who had all kinds of abilities. ‘Keijo’ was a sport in which the girl used her bum and her boobs to compete, various abilities including diamond buttocks and gravity hips… You must be thinking if all the characters are women, then what will all the boy graduate students do?
It’s so simple! Which one of them wasn’t a genderbent uncle!
