Tenmaku Cinema Chapter 3 Recap
Everyone is shocked to hear about the shooting of the movie, for which Hajime wrote the script and Himeki Kurakui is playing the lead role. Kurai confirms this by saying that she’s playing Nagisa, and Tenmaku is having fun teasing Hajime. Hajime says he would provide his opinions, but it’s all up to Tenmaku on how to film it, and he’ll just follow his lead. But Tenmaku reminds Hajime that he’s the director and he has just written the script, and it’s Hajime’s duty to make the script come alive. Tenmaku also threatens Hajime that if he makes a terrible movie, he’ll crush him to death.
Akitsu, Bito, and Shino also agree to help Hajime, and Hajime is overwhelmed by their kindness. Well, Bito and Shino are definitely happy to be working with Himeki other than anything else. The production cost is a challenge for them to overcome, but Hajime tries to encourage them by giving a made-up speech.
Kurai avoids it when Akitsu asks her about how she managed to convince her agency. Kurai also hides when the teachers come and ask them to vacate the room. When they try to ask her again on the rooftop, she again avoids it and instead picks up a call from her manager, and everyone can hear him when he tells Kurai that she’ll have a full-packed schedule.
Hajime is panicking when he learns Kurai hasn’t told her agency about the movie. But Kurai tells them she’ll find a way to do it because she thinks the script is an incredible work, and she wants to be a part of it. She encourages all of them by saying they’ll make a masterpiece together but leaves in a panic when her driver arrives. Anyways, everyone is pumped up after hearing Kurai’s speech.
The other boys read the script to know what they’ll be working on, and everyone gets emotional by reading it and praises it for being so good. Later, Hajime tries to search for Tenmaku online but doesn’t seem to find him anywhere. Tenmaku tells him about the movies he has worked on, but there’s no sight of him in the credits.
