Resentment Revue

## Revue

The windows of the metro train close, then the doors in between carts open, and a rolling circular brick with the Giraffe's icon rolled in the center while the handles turn into hangers with the coats and the trains flatten to become platforms.

Nana Daiba stands at the center of Position Zero, the area around it shaped like the Tower of Starlight Gathering. She brings up her short sword, which has a frog sticker on it, unsheaths it and then jumps onto the platform where the others are at, before beginning to fight them. She stops for a moment as another train stops next to them, shoots out her longer sword, and she says that she has been waiting for it. She then starts to remove everyone's buttons and capes, starting with Kaoruko Hanayagi, Mahiru Tsuyuzaki, Futaba Isurugi, then Junna Hoshimi. She walks up to Junna, who calls on her, she slices up the rope of her cape and leaves her to catch up to where Claudine Saijo and Maya Tendo are at. Junna falls to the floor as everyone else holds onto their cut off-capes.

Maya and Nana look at each other, then walk toward each other into a fight, causing Claudine to get angry amidst her confusion. Nana swiftly cuts her cape, and only hits Maya's sword as she walks back to Position Zero. She puts her sword onto it and brushes her hair up, saying she feels like she drank strong liquor, only to get a look of confusion by the others. Junna then laughs at her nervously and wonders what Nana is talking about, but before she can say they are just underaged people, blood spurts out from her neck, and Junna panics as she sees her hands all red. Futaba panics as she tries to close the blood coming out from Kaoruko's neck, and Maya then shouts, claiming it's just a stage prop.

The connector of Nana's platform with everyone else's gets unlatched and they are separated as her train moves forward while everyone else stops on the tracks. Meanwhile, some of the red liquid from the aforementioned prop gets into Kaoruko's mouth, which she finds very sweet.

## Trivia

* This is the first Revue in the entire franchise which only has one of its participants singing its accompanying song, this case being Nana Daiba.
* Because the movie takes place after the events of *Shōjo☆Kageki Revue Starlight: Rondo Rondo Rondo*, an omnibus of the anime series told from Nana Daiba's point of view, this Revue primarily serves as a result of said character's conversations with the Giraffe throughout the course of *Rondo Rondo Rondo*, most especially one where the Giraffe beared Nana, who was so desperate to take the stage for herself, witness to the blood-spattered "death" of the stage girls. This Revue concludes in a similar form to that, but without anybody dying, and Karen Aijo and Hikari Kagura not featured.
