00:00That's right. Keep going down. I can't wait to see the exact moment God Probo's stock price crashes to the 30% mark.
00:10Haru, Gaku, and the rest of those losers will be cooked. Meanwhile, the people who outsmarted them and shortened their stock?
00:17Well, we'll just get richer faster as God Probo's stock falls off the face of the earth.
00:23I don't get it. Word should have never gotten out that we raised funds by taking out a security loan using God Probo's stock.
00:36Something tells me we got a rat running around the office. Snitches get stitches. Time to set a trap.
00:42You got me. Guilty as charged.
00:49What the hell?!
01:19God, before you blink your eyes, take the gun and shoot me in the back.
01:25Blossom, this is the flower of my life.
01:28I'm going to kill you.
01:30Prayers and labor.
01:31Stand between light and darkness.
01:34The fruit of love.
01:36Oh, brother.
01:37How far should I go?
01:42There are no rules for a man's life.
01:48I'm just going to cut through the darkness.
01:54Over the top.
01:56We are the only ones who live.
02:00I embrace victory in my heart.
02:07Let's go.
02:08Over the top.
02:13Let's go.
02:14Over the top.
02:17Over the top.
02:28Hey, Haru. I was hoping I'd run into you tonight.
02:34Lookie here. I brought the friend I was telling you about when we met at that TV station party.
02:39So despicable, right?
02:41Yes, totally. The guy's a criminal.
02:44Ladies, please. You can't talk about that kind of stuff near these people.
02:48She's the one who was unfortunate enough to sleep at that guy Goza's place. Remember?
02:53Oh, right. How wild.
02:55So, how old were you at the time?
02:58Oh, come on. I was like 20 years old.
03:0120, huh?
03:02Sheesh.
03:03You sure about that?
03:05That sucks.
03:06Because we need people to think that you were actually in high school.
03:09Oh my goodness, what a dream. I'd love to look younger.
03:15Why is there a fake student ID on here?
03:18Haru said he needed it for a new bluff, and since he wasn't actually using it, I figured it was fine if it kept him busy.
03:25Don't trust him. You know, not any farther than you can throw him.
03:28She's right. This can't be good.
03:31Definitely shady.
03:33Yeah, it is.
03:36Hey, your Himuro thing gave me an idea.
03:39You sacrificed yourself Showa style to protect him, didn't you?
03:43Yeah, that's what went down.
03:46But something makes the current IT era a teensy bit different.
03:50Now you can create your own scandals.
03:54Like, they call him Goza the Lady Killer.
03:57Really? He was with some sweet young thing recently?
04:00And I hear he put her in a bad situation.
04:03You're a tabloid. I'm sorry, I mean, you're a drama streamer, aren't you?
04:08I, uh...
04:10I'm not here to arrest you, though. I was hoping we could be friends.
04:14But you do owe me one.
04:17Uh, okay.
04:20Is that right?
04:22In just a few hours, a fake scandal will break, and then the news will spread.
04:26And everyone involved will be in an uproar.
04:29Hey-o! Check out Judgment Channel's next story!
04:32An idol named F*** was caught trying to fool around with a high school girl by getting her drunk!
04:37Time to take a deep dive into this big story!
04:40Don't forget to smash that subscribe button!
04:43Think it's Goza? Man, what a creep.
04:46Yeah, gross.
04:48Judgment Channel was totally talking about Goza today, right?
04:51I hope so.
04:53I don't know.
04:56Judgment Channel was totally talking about Goza today, right?
04:58I hope so.
05:00Man, there goes Goza's career.
05:02Oh yeah, I mean, he's totally screwed if he really did mess with a high school girl.
05:07My heart can't take much more of this.
05:26What are these two guys doing?
05:28Meditating?
05:31A sign of the times.
05:33Kids without the balls to face you man-to-man think they can hide behind their computers and yell obscenities at you these days.
05:41Right? It's a shame, huh?
05:43If we don't solve this, folks will stop taking us seriously.
05:46I hear what you're saying.
05:49So either pay off that gossip streamer and put an end to this business, or kidnap him and shut him up.
05:54Should I say it slower?
05:57No, sir. I'll get on it.
05:59First, I'll have a chat with our affiliates who seem to be good with IT, sir.
06:02And from there, we'll figure out how we make this good-for-nothing jerk pay for all this.
06:06Did you say IT?
06:09In that case, you can count on me.
06:11Let me handle it for you.
06:14Hey, no worries.
06:16Tsumuragi and I already know each other really well.
06:22Welcome to Judgment Channel!
06:24First, a heartfelt apology and correction.
06:27It's regarding the whole b****** and underage schoolgirl got caught drinking and fooling around story I teased last time.
06:33We just received word that the girl in question had to redo two years of high school, so she was fairly legal at the time.
06:39Credibility matters most here at Judgment Channel, so I take back my false accusations.
06:44He's completely innocent!
06:47No doubt this whole mess will get tons of views, too.
06:51There we go.
06:53Hey, Gaku, what do you think that fake student ID was all about anyway?
06:57I don't have a clue.
06:59Maybe it's a good thing the mistake was corrected on air.
07:02I mean, if you say so, I guess.
07:06I'm very impressed, Haru.
07:09You went through a lot of trouble for us.
07:12I take good care of people like that.
07:14If there's anything you need, let me know.
07:17Sure.
07:18I actually do have one teeny tiny request, or more like a suggestion for you.
07:23A suggestion, huh?
07:26You didn't even hesitate.
07:29Tell me, when'd you have this idea?
07:32Like right now, you know.
07:34It just came to me out of nowhere, I swear.
07:37We have some breaking news about the so-called dawn of the entertainment industry.
07:41Sumeragi Entertainment and a major talent agency got promotion.
07:45The two heavy hitters have just announced a joint investment into creating a company that will utilize technology to promote talent.
07:51They've certainly got everyone's attention with this merger.
07:54The entertainment industry is all abuzz this morning.
08:06Hey, what's going on?
08:09Smoke and mirrors, my man.
08:11Sumeragi Entertainment controls the whole industry, so we want people to think God Promo is on equal terms with them, you know?
08:28We're in the event hall.
08:30Join us as the inauguration ceremony of this new joint investment company begins.
08:35We're witnessing a historic pairing today, and as such the mood is somber.
08:42This is intense.
08:44Old man Sumeragi sees through everything.
08:47You can see it in his eyes.
08:51And now, everyone, please lift your cups.
08:58To walking the path of entertainment with a strong bond that binds us together like family.
09:03Cheers.
09:06This cup's friggin' bigger than my head!
09:09Am I supposed to shoot this or what?
09:15This ain't sake.
09:17Wait, smells sweet.
09:19And fresh, too.
09:21Minty fresh.
09:22It's that weird mouthwash!
09:24Lucky.
09:25I happen to have just the thing on hand.
09:28Is that...
09:29I smell a rat here.
09:31Bathe in mouthwash.
09:40Just in me and Haru's cups, though.
09:48He's been on to us from the first bluff.
09:51Yeah.
09:52He knows everything.
09:54We're toast.
09:56What?
10:09He didn't even flinch.
10:11He wants this.
10:12Man!
10:13Is he for real right now?
10:16Am I supposed to drink this, too?
10:20Damn it.
10:27I've been on to them ever since their first move.
10:30They're in it for themselves.
10:32They won't back down if it's not to their benefit, selfish twits.
10:37Only brassballed idiots like them can make things happen in this godforsaken world.
10:50Disgusting!
10:52Haru!
10:53You must have an iron stomach or something, dude!
10:57Oh no, I wouldn't say that.
10:59I'll puke my guts out later.
11:01You're sick!
11:02Whatever, it's not like we could just watch God promo Stock Price Tank and do nothing.
11:06You got that right.
11:08But I'm never drinking that crap again.
11:13Let's work together, even if it's just on the IT front.
11:17Between Tsumuragi Entertainment and God Promotion, we'll build a massive media empire.
11:33What the hell's going on now?
11:35God Promo Stock is skyrocketing!
11:38Oh my god!
11:41Hell yeah! We're making a super V-shaped recovery!
11:45And a sale! My heart was in my throat!
11:50Too close.
11:52I'm so relieved. We could have lost it all.
11:58I'm so sorry.
12:00It was completely unexpected.
12:02But it's just a short-sighted trick of the hand to distract.
12:05They'll fail before too long.
12:07Unlike God Promo, which has made a V-recovery,
12:10we tried to tank their stock by shorting it and suffered a loss.
12:15Isn't that right?
12:17Oh, uh, actually, President Sir, well, um, I, uh, yes.
12:23You'll be the one who gets put out of your misery.
12:26You're easy to replace.
12:28No!
12:31Yeah, I don't get it.
12:33Why would you risk leaking info to Dragon Bank?
12:36The whole thing could have blown up in our faces.
12:39I wanted to annoy him.
12:41You think that's smart?
12:43Yeah.
12:45A dog that doesn't bite back will keep getting beat down.
12:53I don't know.
12:54Got a feeling the old man's gonna take this seriously enough to come for us.
12:59Yeah, probably.
13:06Yes, yes, yes!
13:08Our stock's little heart is beating again!
13:10We avoided bankruptcy!
13:12I think this means we can go back to making our game!
13:15You think?
13:16Hmm.
13:17It just makes me wonder how all this will affect my God Promo stock options, though.
13:22Do I remember correctly?
13:24You called them worthless scraps of paper.
13:26Pretty sure that's exactly what you said.
13:28Well, they gave him the right to buy God Promo stock at a fixed price,
13:32so really they're only worthless if the price falls.
13:35But if it keeps going up, they're worth, like, a lot a lot.
13:38God Promo stock price just skyrocketed!
13:41Wait, so that means...
13:43Oh, yeah! It's real, man!
13:46I literally just became an instant millionaire!
13:49Well, temporarily, I guess.
13:58I want it all!
14:00My lust has taken over!
14:02I'm out of control!
14:04I'm totally lost in the sauce!
14:08Well, you better put that saucecorn making the game, Slacker!
14:11Unless we make this a huge hit, we're still going bankrupt and you'll still be fired!
14:16Okay! I get it! Back off!
14:18Balancing the in-game inflation's key.
14:21That's the final adjustment to any good game.
14:24I was literally just researching what we need to know about it.
14:28You're not a good liar!
14:32What's all this mean?
14:34Well, I know it's hard to believe, but I'm older than I look!
14:37I gotta see these big-picture plans on paper to understand things.
14:41It's basically a roadmap for how we'll slowly inflate all the levels in the game.
14:46What you don't want to do is try to force players to spend money right off the bat
14:50by making all the new enemies and equipment too difficult too fast,
14:54because you'll risk losing players to something less challenging.
14:57Of course, saying so might make Sakura criticize me for only thinking of money again, but so be it, eh?
15:03Actually, I get where you're coming from.
15:06Running into a boss I can't beat will turn me off a game quick.
15:09Maddening, right?
15:11Well, yeah, but still.
15:13Playing a game that's way too easy sucks big time.
15:15You gotta hit a nice balance.
15:17Even a casual game should be challenging.
15:20That's what it's all about!
15:22That's our goal! Get back to work!
15:30Seems like you're making steady progress, thanks to the influx of staff.
15:34What matters is the content.
15:36If it's boring, then people will immediately pass it up!
15:39No worries. You'll see soon enough.
15:45Whoa, whoa, whoa! Did I find a bug?
15:47I swear I accidentally tapped in the middle of four bubbles and they all burst at the same time!
15:51It must be. I just figured out that method worked for me too.
15:54Me too.
15:56Same here.
15:57Yeah, me too.
15:58Hey! I just did it! Cool!
16:01We all figured out the same strategy around the same time!
16:05That's it!
16:06Made you stop for a second to wonder if you were the only one who found it.
16:10That's the right way to inflate the difficulty.
16:13Once again, it's all about the heart.
16:15That's the thing you've always been great at, Sakura.
16:18Stop! But that's not all!
16:21When you move on to the next island...
16:23It's a good game. It's got heart.
16:26I have to make it sell.
16:28Yeah, it's pretty close to what I had in mind, but if we could just tweak this a little...
16:33Killer, dude! That's a wicked idea! Awesome!
16:37Nice to meet you. I'm Takahashi of Trillion Game Inc.
16:41Would you be willing to cover our company's game, Pop Pop Land?
16:44And popping the bubbles is quite satisfying.
16:47I don't want to stop.
16:49Look at this promo stuff. How's that for our game announcement?
16:53Marvelous!
16:54Now click accept and make it available in the store.
16:57And sent!
17:02It's finally time to launch our game!
17:04Pop Pop Land's official release will be on the poppiest of days, August 8th!
17:12On August 7th, we launch our social game and show Trillion Game we mean business.
17:20And we do what it takes to win.
17:23Then the world will know.
17:26No matter what happens, Dragon Bank will always be on top.
17:30And we won't hesitate to take out anyone who dares to challenge us either.
17:42Should we do some sort of in-game celebration event when we hit a million downloads?
17:47You really think we'll hit that many?
17:49We'll go under if we don't.
17:51We spent over 2 billion yen developing and marketing the game.
17:55Yeah, we sure did.
17:58Pop Pop Land's launched and loaded!
18:01So how many people have downloaded it?
18:05Hold on.
18:07Um, only 18,000?
18:10But how?
18:12I don't get it.
18:14We poured our hearts and souls into making this a fun game to play.
18:18Dammit!
18:19Are you sure that's not missing a zero?
18:21We should be close to a million by now!
18:25Oh, it's definitely not a mistake.
18:28Look at this.
18:29Now available for download.
18:31Available for download.
18:32Dragon Girls Puni Puni!
18:34Let's talk about the hot new game, Dragon Girls Puni Puni!
18:38Dragon Girls was a huge hit, so everyone's been waiting for the spin-off to drop.
18:42Welcome today's guests, self-proclaimed...
18:45The old man sure doesn't waste time, does he?
18:47He's already twisting the knife, too.
18:50Whoa!
18:59Oh man, not again.
19:02It's just like last time, when they copied our site.
19:06What kind of karma is this?
19:08To think we've been crushed by a game I made.
19:11It's almost poetically tragic.
19:13Is that even a thing?
19:15It's not your fault, Hebijima.
19:17We can't compete with how much they marketed their game.
19:20I guess the market is very different than it was when I made my game years ago.
19:25Social gaming changes so fast now, I can't keep up.
19:29But back in my day, you just needed a good game and word of mouth.
19:34Not anymore.
19:35Now that the cost to develop and market a single game has exploded,
19:39the little guy's just gonna lose to people with more cash than heart.
19:42But our game feels better!
19:45Damn it all!
19:47They'd understand if they played the game!
19:49We just gotta get it to them!
19:52I didn't expect the Don himself to come.
19:55I certainly didn't expect you to ask me to take a look at this.
19:59That said, I don't mind social games.
20:02I've just been way too busy to play them lately.
20:05You might want to start.
20:06Here, just a little gift from us.
20:09Roman A. Conti? Doesn't it go for a million a bottle?
20:13No, no, absolutely not.
20:15That's enough to make me want out.
20:17I'm not calling something fun if it's not actually fun.
20:20I think you may have the wrong idea.
20:22We're not suggesting that you lie.
20:24Not as one of Sumeragi Entertainment's most respected talent.
20:28Is that right, Haru?
20:30Oh, no way.
20:31We'd never ask that.
20:34Gaku and the guys not only put their pride on the line,
20:37but they also picked a fight with me by making this game.
20:41Trust me, it's definitely a fun game.
20:48Well, that did feel quite good.
20:51This is crazy, I can't stop!
20:53Hop hop land!
20:57Finally, do you want to tell everyone at home what you're into these days, Himuro?
21:05If you like it, then post about it on the Tempokomi channel.
21:11If you want to pop all night long, it's gonna be pop bobbling!
21:24There you are! Come on, hurry up!
21:27Did our downloads really start to pick up?
21:29They've more than picked up, Gaku!
21:33We're at over 700,000 here!
21:36And it keeps going up!
21:38I finally did it! For real!
21:43Why isn't it selling at all? It's so fun!
21:46I don't know why people aren't buying it either.
21:49Damn it, it's got heart!
21:51They'd understand if we could just get the game in people's hands!
21:54If they played it once, they'd love it!
21:59This game's crazy!
22:00Mad insane, bro!
22:02It's so addictive!
22:03I can't stop playing it!
22:09I can't stop playing it!
22:17Pop pop!
22:20Pop pop is right, but it's not time to bust out the good champagne not quite yet!
22:24We're about to start raking in the money, dear Sakura friend!
22:28Money, you say? I like the sound of that.
22:38From now on, I want to get everything from the past to the future!
22:45I'm not stupid! I still have ambitions!
23:01The more you get, the more you get
23:04The more you get, the more you get
23:07If I don't have a throat match with you, my heart won't beat
23:13Jack it up, you lucky boy! You're lucky, come on!
23:16Let's make a vow, come on, 3Dio!
23:19Let's turn the world upside down!
23:23Ah, you look so serious
23:28Yes, I like fiction
23:31I'll never lose again
23:37Let's get started!
23:40From now on, I want to get everything from the past to the future!
23:46I'm not stupid! I still have ambitions!
23:50Is that justice? Is that right?
23:55I want to get everything from the past to the future!
23:59I'm not stupid! I still have ambitions!
