I picture her as constantly setting up pranks on the junior actresses. I don\u2019t feel like anyone else would be so interested but\u2026 (laughs), maybe 2nd place would be Yurika-chan (Makaze)? I think she\u2019d be able to completely hide what she was up to. I would make a tag-team with the other senior actresses to prank the juniors, so I\u2019ll put myself at 3rd place. Ryou-chan (Tamaki) would definitely crack up and give the game away by laughing! So I\u2019ll put her at 4th place. I\u2019ve actually been pranked by Daimon (Nozomi) in real life, but I remember she was making a fake innocent face and I knew something was definitely up, so she\u2019s at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tamaki Ryou &#8211; Moon Troupe<\/strong><br>I think Asumi-san would definitely be good at this! She\u2019d put on a perfect air of innocence (laughs) and everyone would be totally taken in. As for Daimon-san\u2026I think she\u2019d set up a prank as carefully as she does anything else, so I think she\u2019d also have a high success rate. Yurika-san seems to like funny things, but she doesn\u2019t look like the kind of person to set up a prank, so I think everyone would be like \u2018Yurika-san? Surely not!\u2019 (laughs) and she\u2019d be able to pull it off. I think Kurenai-san would set one up, and then hang around watching, so she\u2019d end up getting caught (laughs). If I tried it would show on my face for sure so I\u2019m not even going to put myself on the ranking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nozomi Fuuto &#8211; Snow Troupe<\/strong><br>First place would be Sayumi-san (Kurenai), I think. She\u2019d come up with a really funny idea and put the whole thing together. Makaze seems to like teasing people, so she\u2019s second place. Third place is Mirio (Asumi). I think she likes fun things like that, but rather than setting it up herself, she\u2019d prefer to create it together with her friends. Tamakichi (Tamaki) I think is more likely to be the one getting pranked (laughs). I do like practical jokes, &nbsp;but I\u2019d probably end up letting my laughter escape, so it probably wouldn\u2019t succeed\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Makaze Suzuho &#8211; Cosmos Troupe<\/strong><br>Hmmmmm, maybe Daimon-san would be first? Sayumi-san and I often do practical jokes, but we get overly excited about it (laughs), so in terms of constructing one properly, I think Daimon-san is probably first. She\u2019d construct a plan really diligently and put the whole thing together carefully without letting anyone else find out. As for Asumi-san and Tamakichi, I picture them as having fun watching someone else set up a prank and then getting caught in it themselves\u2026so second place is Sayumi-san, then. Although I think she\u2019d let it show on her face (laughs). I might as well put myself in third place. When I was a junior actress, I would play tricks on people a lot, so I have confidence in my abilities to set up a prank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kurenai Yuzuru &#8211; Star Troupe<\/strong><br>Yurika is #1. She\u2019s so good at it! (laughs) She always seems to be thinking of how she can put one over on people (laughs). #2 is Daimon. If someone said that the really serious-looking Daimon-san was up to something I would think \u2018are you sure about that?\u2019 and also I think she would set it up really thoroughly, so she would be able to catch a lot of people. Tamakichi seems like she would really like this! Although she would probably get caught right away (laughs). So she is #4. I\u2019d be the worst. I love doing it, but I can\u2019t keep from smiling so I always get caught immediately, and so I\u2019ve just given up (laughs). I have no idea if Mirio-chan likes pranks or not, so maybe she could let me know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Outtakes<\/strong><br><em>1)<\/em>&nbsp;After she mentioned that Sayumi (Kurenai) would let it show on her face\u2026<br>Makaze: \u2018Sayumi-san did set up a lot of pranks and things, but they were successful more because Ichijou-san is very good at that kind of thing, I don\u2019t really feel like Sayumi-san had much to do with it\u2026 (laughs)\u2019<br><em>2)<\/em>&nbsp;Yurika\u2019s (Makaze\u2019s) junior actress-era prank career: \u2018I would fill people\u2019s shoes with used-up batteries all the time.
