We’re doing a promotional video and poster photoshoot for a ceremonial hall, huh…? Ehehe.

There’s no way I can’t be excited for the job this time!

When I heard about this from Producer, I felt like shrieking out of pure joy!

Fufu… It’s been your heart’s desire to do this sort of job, hasn’t it, Mizushima-san?

Getting to wear a wedding dress isn’t a very common occasion, after all.

Yep ♪ I got the chance to act as a bride during the photoshoot that Kamiya and Roll did before…

But the job this time! I get to wear a lovely and totes-cute wedding dress. I’m so happy ♪

Kukuku… Mayst the costume of pure white love color forth young Saki with extravagance!
We’ll also be wearing tuxedos for our photoshoot. Those are quite unfamiliar.

How about we ask for advice from the seniors who are more used to wearing them, so that we may pull them off well?

Yep! Let’s gather up with Kamiya and Roll to enjoy a happy-papi-lunchie ♪

Speakin’ of weddings... there’s been a big fuss ‘bout that sorta stuff lately.
...A big fuss?
I asked one of my underlin’s who’s married some questions to help with the photoshoot.

We were talkin’ back ‘n forth ‘bout it, and it seemed like some of my other underlin’s knew a lot ‘bout it too...

I think I had some misunderstandin’s ‘bout marriage, for some reason.

Wahaha, I cleared up those misunderstandin’s, but I’m still gettin’ trouble for it!

Ahaha. That sounds rough, Daigo-kun.
I mean, I’m fourteen years old, so I can’t get married yet. Yeesh... hm?
What’s up with that magazine?
I thought the special on marriage looked interestin’. Everyone’s got their own opinions on marriage.

I know. I’m gonna ask everyone some questions, just like Ryo did not too long ago!

I wanna know what you all think! Lemme know what you think too, Boss!

So this is where we will be shooting this time... ah, look! There’s a pumpkin carriage here!
...As one could expect of a ceremonial hall that holds ceremonies based on Cinderella.

...It’s as if we are really visiting the world of that fairytale.

Staff members! While we’re here, is it cool if we take some pictures?
...Thank you! Then, I’ll take your picture, Daigo-kun.
Oh, thanks! Can ya try and make it so ya can see all of the carriage and me in it?
Ehh, I’m not sure I’ll be able to do that... but I’ll try! Say cheese!
...Alright, next let’s all take a picture together! A commemorative photo!
...Yes, we don’t get opportunities like this often. We can ask the staff to take it for us.
Wahaha! They even took pictures of us in more places than just the carriage! I’m totally satisfied!
...Hm. Producer is calling for us. Shall we head into the ceremonial hall?

Woah. There’s an awful lot of different outfits here.
...It’s stunning to see this many gorgeous dresses lined up in a row.
This wedding dress is so frilly and cute.
...While this one is simple, it is also elegant and beautiful.
Oh, they’ve got tuxedos too! They’re all lookin’ sharp!
Wow, they’re so cool! Hehe, I wonder if I'd look cool wearing one of these...
Yeah! They’d look real good on ya, for sure! ...Hm?

Ryo, Sensei, look. There’s an outfit that’s as small as it is cute!

There is. I don’t think it would even fit a kid though...?
...I believe that is the outfit that was rented for the ring dog.

...It seems like one’s pet dog can participate by carrying the wedding ring.

I get it! Pets are important members of the family, so that’d make the weddin’ the best it can be!

All of the food at this ceremonial hall was delicious!
The French food was perfect! So scrumdiddlyumptious!
Woah! You’re writing so much on your notepad, Kazuki-san!
...Ah, this? I’ve been writing down the things I've been noticing about the ceremonial hall.

...I have the task of thinking up my own proposal for this shoot as well.

...I may find some helpful hints while we’re touring the ceremonial hall.

Thinking up your own proposal sounds hard.
...It is. That is why it is so rewarding. Nevertheless...

...I brought a new notepad, but I am already running out of space.

...It seems that preparing a spare notepad was the right thing to do.

Ehh? You filled a whole notepad all in one day?!
Ya even brought a spare... wahaha! Sensei’s always prepared!

We gotta give thinkin’ up our proposals everythin’ we’ve got, too!

(...I have written about love and marriage in my works before.

...This time, I will be the one to say those words. I have to think this through carefully.)

Ohh… Th-this is… the dwelling of light upon which the godly blessings have been granted, so unsavory to mine own self…!!
So it’s the place where they’ll hold the wedding ceremony. D’you think we’ll be having the photoshoot here too?
Kuh… I must lend my ears to those sacred utterances within this sacred location…

Mine own soul of darkness may be completely purified as a result…!!

Purifying… Aah, speaking of which.

You said the same thing with the photoshoot that Kamiya and Makio-san took part in, didn’t you?

Nothing happened that time. I’m sure you’ll be just as fine this time.

V-verily… In addition, if I were to prevail over such trials of this sort, mine own powers of darkness shall continue to amplify.

’Tis certainty that this current testing shall be overcome with the presence of mine own brethren as well as Master alongside myself!

This sacred location as well as the sacred utterances shall be endured by mine own self beyond the shadow of a doubt! Aaaahhahaha!

Ah… check it out! There’s a bride and groom. It’s a real wedding ceremony!
It’s quite lively, and they look like they’re enjoying themselves. They seem very happy, and… Oh? This song is…?
Kyaah! This is Café Parade’s song!
Ohh… This aria of our owning art flowing forth unremittingly!
Oh, you’re right. Either the bride or groom might just be our fan.
Eheheh! I sure am happy knowing that they’re using our song for their precious ceremony ♪

…Ah! I thought up something good! Hey, Producer, I gotta consult with you about something…

…Yep. I wanna thank them for making us feel happy like this.

I just wondered if we could do a ‘lil surprise in our own way. How is it?

You’re gonna talk it over with ‘em for me? Eheheh! Thanks a ton~!

I see. The bride is a big fan of us…? I’m very pleased to hear that.

Thank you very much for accepting our request for a surprise, mister groom.

“She’ll definitely be happy about this,” you say…? Eheheh! Now I’m getting fired up!
Indeed! Mayst our own clever scheme of surprise triumph with great certainty!

“…May I have a bit of your time here?

Good afternoon. I am Shinonome Soichiro of Café Parade.”

“I, Asselin BB II, as well am of Café Parade!

Enshrined upon mine own shoulder art the fallen angel Satan! Aaahhahaha!”

“And I’m Mizushima Saki! We came over here to the wedding hall for a job today, but…

It just made us so happy to hear Café Parade’s song being played, we popped right out ♪

To miss bride and mister groom! Congratulations on getting married! I hope you two get papi-happy together ♪”

Fufu, the groom watching over the bride looks happy as well.
Indeed! Our clever scheme didst indeed achieve a success… ’Twas a stirring accomplishment…!
Yes, truly… Ah, Mizushima-san, here’s a handkerchief.
*sniffle*… Thanksies~… Weddings are, like, super amazing, aren’t they!

Today’s become an unforgettable day for me!

Was it really okay for us to take part in the candy toss?
I’m sure it’s fine. They’ve prepared multiple candy bouquets, after all.

Moreover, the staff members and happy couple graciously asked us to as well.

Ooh, the propelling of the sweet bouquet through the air has begun, it seems.
Oh, oops… I barely missed catching it.
Me too~. I was real close, TBH.
Hm, the saccharine bouquet is heading within this directio… UOOH!?
Awesome~! It got neatly caught onto Satan!

It’s said that the person who receives the bouquet will be having a wedding next, right?

Verily? Art that an actuality, that this sweet bouquet has such a power?

However, may it be possible that it had been attracted to Satan’s magical prowess!

'Tis fact that it contains immense strength!

If it has that much strength, then how about we offer it up to someone?
’Tis a fantastic suggestion, O Soichiro! May I offer up this saccharine bouquet alongside Satan’s own blessings!
(It sure was fun learning about all of everything. I’ll be wearing the wedding dress next, huh?

I gotta papi-do my best so that I can show off a lovely wedding ceremony!)

Look! There are glass slippers on display! They’re so pretty...

Ummm, anyways! These are based off Cinderella’s glass slippers, right?

...This hall’s selling point is their ceremonies’ recreations of the world from Cinderella.

...There may be a scene in which we could use these glass slippers in our shoot.

I asked the staff ‘bout it, but it sounds like they’re hard to make and pretty expensive, too.
...We can touch them as long as we are careful not to drop them.
Kyaah~! It’s Cinderella’s glass slipper! Awesome! It’s the real thing…!!
Hmm. Exquisite and delicate as it may be, as if it were summoned from the tale of the girl covered by cinders.
...Would you like to try holding it, Saki-san? Be careful not to drop it...
Oh! Sensei, ya look like a prince, doin’ that... I know!

“Now, prince! Let us have her try on the glass slippers!”

Ah, I see… “Now then, Cinderella. Please put these slippers on and take a look.”
Wow…! This is amazing! It feels like I’ve really come into the world of Cinderella ♪
...Originally, a servant was the one to give her the glass slipper... though this isn’t bad either.

Ya guys! The documents ‘bout our shoot arrived! Let’s look at ‘em right away!
A pumpkin carriage, glass slippers... and a ceremonial hall that looks like a ball being held in a castle...

There are a lot of elements from Cinderella, all packed into one short video!

...It looks like we are going to shoot a scene based off a ball as well.

...It appears there are going to be many parts of the production that portray the world of Cinderella.

We’re gonna make a poster to go with the promo video too.

We gotta go back to the basics to review how we should walk and how to show off our clothes.

...I agree. Since we’re here, how about we do some intensive training together with Saki-san and the others?
I think that’s a good idea! Should we go get them now?

We decided on the schedule for our special training with Café Parade, but...

We still need to come up with our proposals... what should I do...?

...I’ve written lyrics before, but this seems difficult in a different way...

Hmmm... how ‘bout a simple, “I love ya, marry me!”...?
That would be perfect for you! ...But that might be too short for the video’s purposes.
It probably is... this is tough.
...Suppose you married a person you love very much. What kind of life would you like to live with them?
Lemme think... it’d be the best if we could spend lots of time smilin’ together!
...In that case, I think that could work if you put it into your own words.
Okay... I’ll try thinkin’ ‘bout it that way! Thanks, Sensei!

By the way... did ya think of your proposal, Sensei?

...Not yet. There are too many things I want to say.

...I have been revising it repeatedly. By the time of our photoshoot, I will ensure that my proposal will be the best possible one.

(I have determined the direction of my proposal, but now I have to think of how I want to convey it.

...I had never thought about marriage from the point of view of those involved before.

...I wonder what my father said?)

O Soichiro, art mine own path of walking without mistake?
Yes, it’s fine. You look dignified, and I think you’re walking neatly.
I wonder if my actions and movements are okay?

I was trying to walk while wearing a long pannier in place of the dress…

I believe you’re fine as well, Mizushima-san. It was elegant and wonderful.
Seriously? Yay~ I’m totes glad I practiced a bunch during the free time I had ♪

The staff members in the wedding hall helped me out with how to walk, too.

I guess it’s ‘cuz I asked them a lot of questions that time ♪

You’ve been working so hard, Saki-chan. It’s amazing.
Ehehe. I’ve admired wedding dresses for a while now…

Everyone, plus Producer, is here supporting me and how I feel about wanting to wear them!

I even decided, ever since we got the job, that I’m gonna work at this with every last bit of strength I have!!

Eheheh! I gotta papi-do my best so that it’ll be even more lovely!

(Saki-san is putting a great amount of effort into this. I need to follow his example... however...

Saki-san seems flustered now. Hopefully it’s nothing...)

I’ve made some snacks as refreshments… Oh?

There are so many brand-new skincare products on the desk… I wonder what in the world is going on here?

Ah, I’m so sorry! I’ll clean it up in a jiffy, so just wait a bit!
No, you have no need to worry. Are all of these things products that you bought?
Yep! So, like, I was thinking that I was gonna wear a wonderful wedding dress real soon…

And I got all fired up, like, “I gotta take care of my skin condition!”

I ended up buying all kinds of stuff, so I ended up getting a huge number of things. Ehehe.

Ah! I bought some for Soichiro and Asselin, too! This one… and this one. Also, there’s…

Hmm… Young Saki. Dost thou not believest this physic which grants moisture art in too great a quantity…?
(Certainly, that might just be the case. Was he thinking of us when he did so…?)

First, let us begin the meeting for the time being, while we eat something sweet.

(Mizushima-san doesn’t seem to be in very good condition today again.

His stocking up on skincare products from the precious day might have put him in too much of a fighting spirit…)

Mizushima-san. Please don’t push yourself too far.

Ahaha! I’m totally fine! I can keep working harder and harder!
...Since the other day, Saki-san seemed a bit off to me...

...It appears that it was not just my imagination.

Hmmm... I’m real worried. But he insisted that he's fine, so...
It might be a good idea for us to keep a close eye on him for now.
Kyah! *trips and falls*
Saki, art thou all right!?
(He picks Saki up)
Ehehe… Can’t believe I tripped. The heck am I doing…

I’m gonna breathe the air outside for a bit!

*sighs*… What am I even doing…
Mizushima-san, we’ve found you.
Soichiro… Asselin… Sorry for making you worry ‘bout me.
Nay, we’ve no botheration. However… it seems thou art harboring some thoughts, Saki.
Could you please talk to us about it?
Okay… Thanks, you two…

…Y’know, I’ve always admired wedding dresses.

They’re so cute and gorgeous. Everyone who wears them looks like they’re sparkling.

That’s why I was so genuinely glad about this job when it was decided.

But… remember when we got the chance to learn about a real wedding ceremony before?

I realized, at that moment, that wedding dresses aren’t just dresses worn to look cute.

They change the lives of people who wear them… They have a special meaning to them.

It makes me wonder if I’ll really be able to put my hands through the sleeves of the dress when we’re doing the fitting session soon.

When I realized I’d really be wearing a wedding dress… My head got all kinds of messed up.

Am I really allowed to wear this dress, something that I only admired, nothing else…?

…There exists no reason for thy faltering, young Saki, descendant of the papi tribe!

No matter the costume it may be, thou art capable enough to resemble its magical techniques of allure while wearing it, Saki!

Exactly as Asselin-san says.

I’m always deeply impressed by how you strive to press on while pursuing what you love.

If you stay the way you are, being who you are, then I’m sure you’ll be able to wear anything.

Even if it is a wedding dress. And although they’re not here, regrettably…

Kamiya and Makio-san would surely say the exact same thing if they were present. I know this for fact.

Soichiro… Asselin… Yeah, you’re right. I’m sure Kamiya and Roll would totally say the same thing.

(Whenever I feel like I’ve stopped in my way, everyone will kindly support me and push me on my back…

The fact that everyone’s here and understands me for who I am is the most reassuring thing.)

Thanks sooo much, you two~…! I understand now. I’ll be who I am!

I’ll be confident in myself so I can look good in the wedding dress, and I’ll work hard at both practice and the real thing!

This is so that everyone who sees us will begin to admire weddings for what they are!

Alrighty then... it’s finally time to do our poster photoshoot for the station!
We’re going to be taking pictures one at a time... I need to stay concentrated...!

I’m gonna to do my very best to look like a cool prince!

...That’s the spirit. Now, shall we begin?
...That was fantastic, Kazuki-san! Even though you did the photoshoot all by yourself...

When you held out your hand, it looked like there really was a bride in front of you...!

...That is because Saki-san and I practiced as a pair quite a bit during our special training.

...It was easy to imagine where the bride’s gaze and hand would be.

That reminds me... I saw Saki-chan just a little while ago... he seemed happy!

He told me that he can do his best because he has friends who are supporting him.

...I see. They’re the same as us.
They are! Let’s do our best with the promotional video shoot too!

Now that we’re done with the poster photoshoot, now it’s time for the promo video! I’m itchin’ to start!

Hm. So... you're the ceremonial hall’s owner! Whaddya think of our outfits?

They look so good on us that you wish we could be the exclusive models for your ceremonial hall...?

Ehehe... you’re making me blush.

...What? You want to post the proposals we made on your homepage?

...Thank you very much. It would be an honor.

(I see... so the phrases we made... will be sent out into the world once again.

We thought of them on our own, unlike the lyrics we wrote together before...

They are messages for our beloved, which we thought of by our lonesome.

I still feel uneasy... however, I put as much thought into this as I could. I’m sure it will be fine.)

...Ah. Our partners are all done changing.
I’m lookin’ forward to workin’ with ya again today! I’m gonna give bein’ the groom everythin’ I’ve got!

Now then. You’re up first, right, Ryo? I’m rootin’ for ya!

Thank you! I’m going to show you that I can be a cool groom, so make sure to watch me!

I’ll play the role of a princely groom, from beginning to end...!I’ll play the role of a princely groom, from beginning to end...!
“Will you continue to walk down the path of life, together with me?

You accepting and joining hands with me would make me very happy.

...I thank you so much for choosing me. Let’s be happy together!”

“...Now then, how ‘bout we cut the cake? It’ll be our first collaboration!

From now on, I wanna share all of our fun and painful times with each other.

We’re gonna smile together like we are today, forever! That’s a promise!”

...Great work. You both made wonderful grooms. You did it.
Thank you so much, Kazuki-san! Ehehe, I’m glad my hard work was worth it!
...Now then. Next is my turn.
I wonder what kind of proposal you came up with... I’m excited to hear it!
...After being troubled by it for many days, I finally was able to prepare a fitting proposal.
Oh! It sounds like you’ve got a real well-thought-out proposal!
...Yes. I will express words that are straight from my heart to my bride.

“I attempted to put all of my feelings for you into a letter.

However, it was impossible for me to contain it all in writing.

I hand-picked the words that came to my mind one by one, and revised them... please listen.

...I want to walk down this path together with you, forevermore. Please, give me your hand.”

...Thank you for your hard work as the bride. You made filming go well.
Great job, Sensei! That was a great proposal!
...It was based on my real experience of not being able to fit my proposal on my notepad.
That’s just what I’d expect from you! You were so cool!
...Thank you. Though honestly, I still do not have a clear understanding of marriage.

...While there were certainly things I got more of a handle on while creating my proposal, thinking of being in that position myself is... well.

...However, someday, if someone dear to me appears before me, I may say something like what I said today.

...Those kind of neverending, overflowing thoughts could not be contained in a letter, after all.

Yeah, I think that sounds like a perfect proposal from someone who can write lots of words like you do!
...Now then, the three from Café Parade are going to start filming now.

...I am sure it will turn out wonderful. Let’s observe them from here.

“Even without your glass slipper, I will find you. Because it is you.

No matter where you are in the world… Yes, without a doubt.

Would you please marry me?”

“Having prevailed a great number of ordeals, our souls had begun to attract themselves to one another and we fell in love.

As such, I pledge to you for eternity. I pledge upon this ring… and your lovely eyes.

No matter what misfortunes await us, I shall protect you… I love you.”

Aaaahhahhaha! Young Saki! O Soichiro! Hast thou seared into thy memories mine own brave figure!
Indeed, I have. You needn’t be shy about it at all: it was wonderful acting.
Asselin, you were super cool how you were all dignified ’n stuff!

You too, Soichiro! It was so lovely how romantic you were!

Do you think so? Hearing you say that made me think that mulling over the lines was worth it.
Kukuku… It seems the numerous drills of training had borne fruit. And now, ’tis thy turn, Saki.
Allow us to watch over your brave figure, Mizushima-san. Please do your best.
Thanks a bunchie~☆ So I’ll go change into the wedding dress now!

Ta-daaah! Check it out! How is it? This is how I look in a wedding dress ♪
It suits you very well. It’s incredibly lovely.It suits you very well. It’s incredibly lovely.
Indeed! Thy self art that of a purely white magician upon whom the sylphs’ protection hast been granted!
Ehehe, thanks, you two~! I’m also really glad you complimented me, Producer!

Honestly, I’m still a little bit nervous about this…

But I’m sure I’ll be fine! I’ll make it a really lovely wedding!

‘Kay then, Soichiro, Asselin, and Producer! I’ll be heading off now!

“Ah, fireworks…! They’re so beautiful… It’s like a scene you’d make with magic.

…Fufu, I know. This isn’t magic or anything of the sort.

Even if the clock hits midnight, nothing will disappear. Neither you… nor I will.

Thank you for choosing me. I’ll always love you.”

…It’s an OK in one go? Yayyy~♪

The next photoshoot is in the chapel, right? I’m gonna hype myself up to show myself at the most important part ever~!

“This might be the happiest I’ve ever been! It’s because, right now I’m here with you, my beloved!

…But no, I know there’s still so many more fun things waiting for us in the future. I expect we’ll fight and run into troubles…

But I want the two of us to keep finding all sorts of happiness from here on out!”

…How was my acting just now?

I did it… Hehe, good work, everyone!

Thank you so much for acting as my partner, too! It was an amazing photoshoot!

Producer! Guys! I’m back~!

Hey, hey, how was my photoshoot?

Fufu. You acted wonderfully. I couldn’t help but be captivated.
Thy utterances were surely a given, though thine method of showing the outfit of pure white was excellent as well!

Now view, young Saki. Satan art sending thee blessings!

Oh, thanks sooo much! I made it the papi-best ceremony ever, didn’t I ♪

Listen, listen! Roll’n the others messaged me just now…

They saw our poster in the station!

See, see? They sent it with a picture, too ♪

I’ve seen it scattered around here and there around the city as well.

Seeing my own face being shown so largely becomes rather embarrassing every time I pass by, however.

I hope it has managed to serve as aid to our promotion efforts, if only a little.

…Hm, what may be thy quandary, Master? Thou seemst to be joyful for something.
The requests to have Cinderella weddings are flooding the makers and preorders cannot catch up, you say…
Oho… Sealed by our own phantoms, they had reached the most views in record time and continue to grow as well?
I see! So the proposal phrases we used were totes popular ♪

I really was blessed to have gotten this job, wasn’t I…

I was as well… Do you know what that means, Asselin-san?
Indeed I do! To celebrate the greatest of boons from these trials, mayst we commence a grand banquet!
Yay~! We’re gonna have a closing party at Café Parade! Come with us, Producer!
