【TSUMUGI】: In order to reconcile the inconsistencies, suddenly the fantasy aspects have come forward!
【MITSUKI】: So it came out, after all—!!!


【MITSUKI】: Manager, there's something I wanted to ask you about the "i7 Academy" script

【TSUMUGI】: Mitsuki-san, thank you for all of your hard work!
"i7 Academy" has become very popular!
【TSUMUGI】: There's even been talk of making it into a drama serial!
So, what sort of question did you have?
【TSUMUGI】

【MITSUKI】: So I know that there's a scene where I get into a fight with my colleague, Sogo
【MITSUKI】: But what's with this "Having misunderstood my connection with Riku, my colleague Sogo is manipulated by Yamato-san's dark power and comes to assault me"???
【MITSUKI】: First of all, what's with the darkness???

【TSUMUGI】: Please excuse me for missing the chance to explain!
【TSUMUGI】: Originally, this scene expanded the plot by having Sogo-san, who had misunderstood the relationship between the heroine and Riku-san, become swayed by half-truths from Yamato-san, who was disguised as the school doctor, and get into a lover's quarrel with the heroine.

【MITSUKI】: Ahhh. The home economics teacher was originally a woman, after all.

【TSUMUGI】: In order to reconcile the inconsistencies, suddenly the fantasy aspects have come forward!

【MITSUKI】: So it came out, after all—!!!

[1]: Riku-san has also become an android!
[2]: Sogo-san has also become a vampire!
[3]: Nagi-san has also become an enigmatic agent!



【TSUMUGI】: Riku-san has also become an android!
【TSUMUGI】: Since it'd be strange for the relationship for Mitsuki-san and Riku-san to be misunderstood as unfaithfulness, it's become a development where Mitsuki-san is the only one who knows Riku-san's secret of being an android!
【TSUMUGI】: In the next next episode, Riku-san will awaken!

【MITSUKI】: Just what kind of power is he waking up to!?
【MITSUKI】: Ah!
Then, does my setting change so I was originally a girl?

【TSUMUGI】: For the time being, we'll be avoiding a decision on that until the very last moment, but as an emergency measure so that everything will make sense either way.......
【TSUMUGI】: Starting from the next episode, your apron will have frills added to it!

【MITSUKI】: Damn iiit—! I'm still a man!
I'll give Riku his heart-thumping private lessons!!



【TSUMUGI】: Sogo-san has also become a vampire!
【TSUMUGI】: Since we couldn't have the two of you doing a love scene, it was changed to an assault and bloodsucking attempt scene!

【MITSUKI】: Is this school a Hyakki Yagyo!?
【MITSUKI】: Ah!
Then, does my setting change so I was originally a girl?

【TSUMUGI】: For the time being, we'll be avoiding a decision on that until the very last moment, but as an emergency measure so that everything will make sense either way.......
【TSUMUGI】: Starting from the next episode, your apron will have frills added to it!

【MITSUKI】: Damn iiit—! I'm still a man!
I'll give Riku his heart-thumping private lessons!!



【TSUMUGI】: Nagi-san has also become an enigmatic agent!
【TSUMUGI】: Nagi-san became quite close with some of the women from the production side, and everyone has already become bewitched by Nagi-san's charms....
【TSUMUGI】

【TSUMUGI】: In other words, several of Nagi-san's views have been adopted into the story!
【TSUMUGI】: Knowing that an idol could be so involved as to help with the script, as a manager I am very proud
【TSUMUGI】


【MITSUKI】: That bastard.....!
So he's the reason the eighth grade syndrome aspects've gone up!!
【MITSUKI】: Ah!
Then, does my setting change so I was originally a girl?

【TSUMUGI】: For the time being, we'll be avoiding a decision on that until the very last moment, but as an emergency measure so that everything will make sense either way.......
【TSUMUGI】: Starting from the next episode, your apron will have frills added to it!

【MITSUKI】: Damn iiit—! I'm still a man!
I'll give Riku his heart-thumping private lessons!!

t/n:

1. I swear that tsumugi is playing dumb at the start of this chat. I swear she is pretending that she doesn't have to review the changes. I swear she is trying to divert the subject so that she doesn't have to talk about how messed up this drama has become overnight. I swear

2. mitsuki (or the script) keeps referring to sougo as his "colleague" and I'm guessing that's probably where "fiancee" was supposed to be written instead? which makes it seem a bit less repetitive than repeating "colleague" over and over again—so I left the repetition in hoping to convey that same effect?

it was a bit difficult to translate these lines the way I wanted to because japanese quotations naturally fall at the end of the sentence, making mitsuki's explanation of the setting flow in a very specific way; he describes everything up to sougo being manipulated by yamato's dark power and attack him before he says "what's with that"

they are asking sougo to do so much in this drama

3. apparently yamato is not only disguised as a student, but also disguising as the school doctor, but also actually the school doctor, but? I really don't know....

4. I feel kind of bad for mitsuki because from the start he was the most like? prepared to see inconsistencies show up in the script.... he was bracing himself for having to deal with a totally messed up setting for the drama...... and then it arrived and all he could do is sit there and scream silently I guess

5. a hyakki yagyou is basically a parade of ghosts/devils/demons from japanese mythology — I couldn't really think of a good adaptation/localization, so I decided to leave it as is in the text! basically, he's saying, was this school always home to supernatural creatures. is this school turning into a vampire knight fanfic

(I've never read vampire knight)

6. mitsuki doesn't quite say "chuunibyou" but he comes pretty close (he only says the chuuni part, but the point of it being an Adolescent Phase remains so I figure it's a rough equivalent)— there... really isn't a good translation for chuunibyou in japanese that I know of? it's literally "second year of middle school syndrome" or like. basically puberty. all of the things that you find really cool and edgy when you're an adolescent.... so I put chuunibyou and I feel really weird about it, if anyone has any recommendations for what to put instead please tell me w

ETA: twitter user ndjustallergies recommended that I translate it as 8th grade syndrome, so I've changed my translation in the main text! thank you for your help m(_ _)m !!

7. this is the chat that I read and was like "I can't believe mitsuki swore at me? I can't believe it was completely justified" on twitter LOL
