"Don't be fooled, Takizawa-chan! Cultivation in the arts is paramount for making a great warrior! Acting on the stage will elevate and strengthen your souls, put them in harmony! Besides, with it, you will also touch the souls of your audience, the people of Tokyo, purging their bad-feelings for good ones, and make them happy... In the war to defend the capital from the shamon, that is important too!"
After a good measure of scandalous innuendos, the girls finish their meal and leave for the practice room. There, in a wide room floored in polished wooden tiles that make an echo-y noise when stepped on, one of the walls completely covered by a mirror, they find Mrs. Rin Asakura:

Rin Asakura
"Oh, hey there! I was waiting for you~" The woman said, raising from the chair that stood next to the wall, along with many others; she drops the booklet she was reading over another seat.
Studying the girls with her gaze, she swings her finger, before pointing:
"Hmm, you must be Chimera-san, Hana-san..." She goes on, with a warm voice, rightly naming everyone,
"Oh, and Homura-san, of course! Heh, I was given good clay to work with! Let's see if it's malleable enough though... Dance!" She says, doing some steps and expecting everyone to follow.
Her dance was full of spinning and tapping with her high-heels, her dark hose-covered legs swinging with the flow, up and down, showing great flexibility; the rim of her robes being wider than normal, swing wildly like the petals of a flower.
Not decreasing her pace, she starts:
"Our first play will be... 'The Love of Amadis', an adaptation (made by me~) of the great baroque opera 'Amadigi Di Gaula' and the chivalric romance that inspired it! It's about a heroic and noble prince going on a journey to save his beloved princess from the claws of an evil witch!" She continues, explaining and dancing.
"We need to cast roles... There's the role of Amadis, of course, his beloved Oriana, the evil witch Melissa, Dardano, Amadis companion and friend, Urganda, the good sorceress who protects Amadis... Think of a fairy godmother... And then there's a bunch of minor roles, which you will mostly have to fill in..." She says with full confidence, not even considering how bothersome that sounds.
