All by Myself -Bloom's Colorful Memories-
An editor visits the dressing room of Snow Garden Theatre, a historic revue theater located in the suburbs. The purpose is to publish the memoirs of Mr. Bloom. Mr. Bloom, a top theater star, will soon be taking a vacation and going on a long trip. He played various roles around the world. The main characters of Shakespeare's masterpieces, heroes of the Greek and Roman eras, the main characters of Japanese manga... But there was one role he had never played. ...is himself. Before he departs, his editor begs to hear about his journey. Before long, his life story begins. Bloom plays out the fragments of her memories as she changes costumes in the colorful dressing room. As a young man, everyone expected a smooth road ahead. However, contrary to the bright smiles illuminated by the spotlight, these were days of blood, sweat, and tears. Please look forward to this meta-theatrical recital, which is a double copy of Ayakaze Sakina's stage life and Bloom's life story. (Takawiki)
