[00:02] ---
    With my face-off against Nakamura behind me,
    I greeted the weekend.
[00:05] ---
    "Karaoke"
[00:06] ---
    While the normies went out to
    sing karaoke or do some shopping,
[00:10] ---
    I holed up in my room, plugging away at Tackfam.
[00:14] ---
    Incidentally, that movie I saw
    with Hinami yesterday?
[00:18] ---
    Try that again.
[00:20] ---
    The post-movie café stop is the perfect chance
    to chat about something
[00:24] ---
    you both have in common.
[00:26] ---
    But when you discuss the movie,
[00:28] ---
    you sound like you're lecturing,
    your eye contact is trite,
[00:31] ---
    and you put zero emotion into it.
[00:33] ---
    Once more--from the beginning.
[00:35] ---
    Uh, right...
[00:38] ---
    And I destroyed her--with no quarter,
    no mercy, and no kindness.
[00:50] ---
    You're not quite there yet, Hinami.
[00:54] ---
    "If you're not too tired,
    another round?"
[00:59] ---
    The trick to this game called "life"
[01:02] ---
    lies in repetition, building on knowledge,
    and putting it into practice.
[01:05] ---
    Even though I've let Hinami decide
    what to work on and how,
SIGN    "Yuzu Izumi's hobbies: Shopping Also interested in needlework"
[01:09] ---
    I felt like I was maybe kinda sorta
    starting to see that for myself.
[01:10] ---
    "Shuji Nakamura's birthday:
    7/27"
[01:15] ---
    "Sekitomo High School"
[01:16] ---
    As a gamer,
[01:19] ---
    Oh, Tomozaki!
[01:19] ---
    I'm tackling this game of life like I mean it.
[01:22] ---
    I know it all by heart!
[01:22] ---
    It's how I got to where I could
    talk a little with the girls in class.
[01:23] ---
    Whoa! Are you serious?
[01:24] ---
    You bet I am!
[01:27] ---
    I'd have to start taking the initiative more.
[01:27] ---
    And now... now I should be able
    to take on Shuji in Tackfam, right?
[01:33] ---
    Say, uh, Izumi, you know...
[01:36] ---
    Hmm? Know what?
[01:39] ---
    Nakamura's birthday is around the corner.
[01:42] ---
    Huh? I mean, yeah, but...
[01:45] ---
    How did you know about it?
[01:47] ---
    Wait: Why are you telling me?!
[01:50] ---
    Besides, it's a month away!
    That's not "around the corner"!
[01:54] ---
    R-Right...
[01:56] ---
    I guess it's insensitive to speak
    so bluntly, huh, Hinami?
[02:17] ---
    "Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki"
SIGN    "Lv. 5: The characters who become your friends after you clear a hard event usually have high stats"
[03:37] ---
    Tomozaki?
[03:39] ---
    Got a sec?
[03:41] ---
    Um, Mizusawa?
[03:43] ---
    Did, um... did you need me again?
[03:49] ---
    No, no!
[03:50] ---
    I just wanted to talk to you.
    That was pretty awesome!
[03:56] ---
    "That"?
[04:01] ---
    Oh.
[04:03] ---
    So, Tomozaki...
[04:04] ---
    That's how you really feel, right?
[04:07] ---
    I mean, I'm not against that kind of thing.
[04:12] ---
    Being too serious is just plain annoying--
    and kinda lame, y'know?
[04:16] ---
    I know people might call you
    a freak for that, but me?
[04:21] ---
    I think what you said was really great.
[04:24] ---
    Hell, I feel the same way.
[04:27] ---
    And seeing you say all that stuff so boldly?
[04:30] ---
    I was... well, kinda impressed.
[04:33] ---
    So I wanted to let you know that
    you've got people like me on your side.
[04:37] ---
    On... on my side?
[04:41] ---
    "Sewing Room 2"
[04:44] ---
    Huh?
[04:45] ---
    And what did Mizusawa say?
[04:47] ---
    Oh, right.
[04:49] ---
    He said we should grab a bite sometime.
[04:52] ---
    That we could invite you and another
    girl along, go as a foursome.
[04:58] ---
    Perfect!
[05:00] ---
    You invite that other girl.
[05:03] ---
    Seriously?!
[05:04] ---
    After all...
[05:05] ---
    ...it'll be good practice for your small goal.
SIGN    "Small Goal Go somewhere with a girl from school (not me), just the 2 of you"
[05:10] ---
    An approachable girl...
[05:17] ---
    Oh! How about Izumi?
[05:20] ---
    Can I ask why?
[05:22] ---
    I talked with her this morning
    about Nakamura's birthday.
[05:26] ---
    If she wants to buy him a present,
    Mizusawa's there for advice--
[05:30] ---
    and you're good at that kind of thing, too.
[05:33] ---
    So if we all go shopping together...
[05:36] ---
    Well, I mean, if you're okay with that.
[05:39] ---
    Or maybe Izumi won't be
    buying him a present after all.
[05:43] ---
    No, she will. She's already thinking it over.
[05:48] ---
    Then that's taken care of!
[05:50] ---
    Okay, I'll invite Izumi.
[05:54] ---
    Huh?
[05:55] ---
    Oh, no, I couldn't!
[05:57] ---
    You're going out to eat, right?
[05:59] ---
    I wouldn't want to drag everyone
    along on my shopping trip.
[06:06] ---
    I get it now.
[06:08] ---
    Izumi reads the room--and she
    cares how people see her.
[06:13] ---
    She's bad at letting people do
    things for her. Or she holds back.
[06:19] ---
    I didn't think that far ahead.
[06:21] ---
    Now what? Now what do I do?
[06:26] ---
    H-Hey, um...
[06:28] ---
    Er...
[06:30] ---
    Don't worry about it! Or, um, I mean...
[06:33] ---
    Yes?
[06:34] ---
    Say something! Say something, Fumiya!
[06:39] ---
    Yeah, because I'll be buying one, too!
    A gift, for Nakamura!
[06:43] ---
    What?
[06:45] ---
    All right, I'm on a roll!
[06:47] ---
    Like... to patch things up!
[06:50] ---
    Because, you know...
    things got weird there, right?
[06:54] ---
    Nakamura doesn't come across as a bad guy,
[06:58] ---
    and two Tackfam fans ought
    to be able to get along...
[07:01] ---
    ...or something.
[07:03] ---
    And I figured his birthday
    would be a good opportunity.
[07:10] ---
    Great!
[07:12] ---
    That is great, Tomozaki!
[07:15] ---
    Honestly, I was feeling kinda iffy
    about this whole thing.
[07:21] ---
    You know how I'm friends with Shuji?
[07:23] ---
    Uh, yeah...?
[07:24] ---
    And lately I've been talking
    with you a lot, too, right?
[07:27] ---
    Y-You have.
[07:29] ---
    And since you're both good guys
    who're friends with me,
[07:33] ---
    I don't want you two to be fighting!
[07:36] ---
    Oh! Sorry!
[07:39] ---
    That got kinda ranty. Was that weird of me?
[07:42] ---
    Anyway, I think that's a fantastic idea!
[07:46] ---
    Count me in. We can shop for presents together!
[07:50] ---
    O-Okay.
[07:52] ---
    She's just so damn nice.
[07:56] ---
    Aaand now I'm buying
    Nakamura a birthday present.
[08:03] ---
    I heard the news, Tomozaki!
[08:05] ---
    You invited Yuzu, right?
[08:08] ---
    Um, yeah. Did I screw up?
[08:12] ---
    Wh-What is it?
[08:15] ---
    You. You're up to something, aren't you?
[08:18] ---
    Huh?
[08:20] ---
    I had my suspicions!
[08:24] ---
    You're not styling those bangs much,
    but you had them cut at a salon, right?
[08:28] ---
    And you, the total introvert, go changing up
    your expression, the way you talk...
[08:34] ---
    Then you up and ask Yuzu out.
[08:36] ---
    And lately...
[08:39] ---
    You and Aoi--
[08:41] ---
    you seem pretty chummy.
[08:43] ---
    Don't tell me...
[08:50] ---
    You read a de-geekification book!
[08:53] ---
    Ah, um... something like that.
SIGN    "Aoi Hinami has invited you to join a group B-Day Gift Planning" "Reject" "Accept" "Members: 1" "Invited: 3"
[09:09] ---
    "Yuzu-san"--that's Izumi, right?
[09:09] ---
    "Members: 1" "Invited: 3"
[09:12] ---
    And "Takahiro"... that must be Mizusawa.
[09:14] ---
    "Members: 2" "Invited: 2"
[09:15] ---
    "Members: 3" "Invited: 1"

    What? Jeez, already?! That's way too fast!
SIGN    "Aoi Hinami has invited you to join a group B-Day Gift Planning" "Reject" "Accept" "Members: 3"
[09:20] ---
    If I've been invited, I guess I can join.
[09:24] ---
    Or rather, I guess I should.
[09:29] ---
    Hey, we're eating.
    Put down your stupid phone.
[09:34] ---
    Litter? You?
[09:37] ---
    Yeah...?
[09:39] ---
    Huh?
[09:40] ---
    And you got invited to some weird group?
[09:43] ---
    It's not that it's weird.
[09:46] ---
    It's just... hard to join, I guess.
[09:49] ---
    Huh, I get that.
[09:51] ---
    That interpersonal stuff can be such a drag.
[09:54] ---
    Are you having problems with that kind of thing?
[10:00] ---
    Listen.
[10:01] ---
    Even if I were, do you really think
    you could give me advice?
[10:11] ---
    Even I know this is a dumb thing
    to be conflicted about.
[10:15] ---
    All this fretting about it
    is getting me nowhere.

    Here we go...
[10:57] ---
    Will you just suck it up already?
[11:00] ---
    But I'm the only one who's not a normie.
[11:02] ---
    You're the one who turned
    a quick bite into a shopping trip.
[11:07] ---
    You bumped up the difficulty,
    and you're whining about it now?
[11:12] ---
    At least you'll get some experience out of it.
[11:15] ---
    And do that task I gave you earlier, too.
[11:20] ---
    I will. "At least two successful suggestions."
[11:24] ---
    Hey!
[11:25] ---
    You two sure got here early.
[11:28] ---
    What's this? Takahiro, late?
[11:31] ---
    It's not even time yet.
[11:33] ---
    Oh? Are you sure?
[11:36] ---
    What an incredible quick-change act.
[11:39] ---
    What? No way!
[11:41] ---
    Everyone's already here?!
[11:43] ---
    I-I'm so sorry!
[11:44] ---
    Whoa, Yuzu! Slow down--you'll trip!
[11:48] ---
    You're late, Yuzu. Ice cream's on you.
[11:52] ---
    Aw! W-Well, okay.
[11:55] ---
    Hey, now, Takahiro!
[11:56] ---
    Yuzu thinks you're serious!
[11:57] ---
    No one's mad at Izumi for her screw-up.
    Is that what she was going for?
[11:59] ---
    Huh? Wait, what?
[12:00] ---
    He was just kidding, Yuzu.
[12:02] ---
    He was?
[12:02] ---
    This ditzy act absolves you
    of a myriad of sins.
[12:04] ---
    It was a joke! Let it go.
[12:06] ---
    Besides, she's not even late.
[12:08] ---
    I'm not?!
[12:09] ---
    Well, that's all of us. Shall we?
[12:12] ---
    Okay!
[12:13] ---
    Let's go!
[12:17] ---
    Wait--have I really not said a word
    since Mizusawa and Izumi showed up?
[12:32] ---
    I just don't know. Hey, Tomozaki?
[12:35] ---
    Hmm? What's up?
[12:37] ---
    What do you think would be
    a good present for Shuji?
[12:41] ---
    A good present? You need to, like,
    think about what you know about him.
[12:47] ---
    We'll just have to browse through
    everything with that in mind...
[12:51] ---
    ...is what... I think.
[12:54] ---
    Oh, I get it. Thanks, Tomozaki!
[12:59] ---
    Psst. Hey, Tomozaki.
[13:01] ---
    Hmm?
[13:02] ---
    Over there.
[13:05] ---
    You know what? Oh, this is between us.
[13:09] ---
    There's a rumor going around
    about those two. That they're dating.
[13:14] ---
    What?!
[13:14] ---
    Hey! Not so loud!
[13:17] ---
    I have way too much to think about.
[13:20] ---
    Listen up: Today's task is to make
    at least two successful suggestions.
[13:25] ---
    Group activities mean making
    decisions that involve everyone.
[13:30] ---
    Your task is to take on
    that role at least twice.
[13:34] ---
    Yadda-yadda, blah-de-blah?
[13:34] ---
    This'll be practice for taking
    the lead in groups.
[13:36] ---
    Okay!
[13:36] ---
    In short, when a group
    agrees to your suggestion,
[13:37] ---
    Hooray!
[13:40] ---
    you control the group's mood
    for a period of time.
[13:43] ---
    With enough practice controlling the mood,
[13:45] ---
    you'll eventually be able to do so
    with bigger and bigger groups.
[13:49] ---
    And that gets you one step closer
    to a rich offline life.
[13:54] ---
    Got that?
[13:55] ---
    Yeah, HEXactly!
[13:57] ---
    You're using it wrong.
[14:03] ---
    Make two successful suggestions, huh?
[14:07] ---
    It's so hard.
[14:09] ---
    It sure is. Have you decided?
[14:12] ---
    Oh, uh, not yet.
[14:15] ---
    What about you?
[14:17] ---
    I asked Hiro, and he said Shuji's
    been worried about acne lately,
[14:22] ---
    so get him some zit cream.
[14:24] ---
    He'd be furious if I gave him that!
[14:28] ---
    Aha...
[14:29] ---
    But you know, that could be a start.
[14:33] ---
    Like, something he might already want.
[14:35] ---
    I just don't know what that is.
[14:37] ---
    Do you... no, you wouldn't know.
[14:42] ---
    This calls for...
[14:44] ---
    Hey!
[14:45] ---
    Don't give up on me without even asking!
[14:48] ---
    But you don't know, do you?
[14:51] ---
    The Nakamura I know
[14:53] ---
    likes Tackfam,
[14:55] ---
    is good-looking and strong,
[14:56] ---
    and has a real normie hairstyle.
[14:59] ---
    What did you just say?
[15:01] ---
    Huh? He's good-looking, has normie hair--
[15:04] ---
    Styling wax! Wouldn't styling wax be good?
[15:07] ---
    Oh, yeah, maybe!
[15:10] ---
    You're having fun.
[15:11] ---
    What's going on?
[15:13] ---
    Hey, what do you think about styling wax?
[15:15] ---
    Ooh, good idea!
[15:17] ---
    I know just the kind he'd like, too.
[15:20] ---
    Really?! Leave it to you, Hiro!
[15:24] ---
    Yeah, yeah. My task. I know.
[15:27] ---
    Th-Then, uh--
[15:29] ---
    Then let's hit the west entrance after this.
[15:32] ---
    I know a place with a wide selection.
[15:34] ---
    Okay!
[15:38] ---
    Nice suggestion, Takahiro!
[15:40] ---
    Yep!
[15:40] ---
    Right, Tomozaki?
[15:42] ---
    Right...
[15:51] ---
    Something in this product line.
[15:53] ---
    But which one?
[15:54] ---
    It depends on the length and type of hair.
[15:57] ---
    C'mere, Tomozaki.
[15:59] ---
    Hmm? What is it?
[16:01] ---
    For example...
[16:03] ---
    For Tomozaki's hair type...
[16:05] ---
    ...you'd want this.
[16:08] ---
    Ooh!
[16:09] ---
    A Takahiro styling demo?
[16:11] ---
    Eh?
[16:16] ---
    Might want to go for some waves at this length.
[16:20] ---
    Apply to the entire head, and then... like so.
[16:24] ---
    Um, hang on... What do I look like right now?
[16:28] ---
    Oh, my!
[16:30] ---
    Looking good, Tomozaki!
[16:32] ---
    Now, the next key point is the back of the head.
[16:37] ---
    I did it!
[16:38] ---
    I bought Shuji's present!
[16:41] ---
    Good for you.
[16:42] ---
    He'll love it!
[16:42] ---
    I'm saved--by Tomozaki's hint
    and Hiro's know-how!
[16:48] ---
    I think I'm pretty hard on myself.
[16:53] ---
    Especially when it comes to my looks:
[16:55] ---
    I don't want to misjudge and be humiliated,
[16:58] ---
    so I evaluate myself harshly
    and by objective standards.
[17:01] ---
    I take pride in that, at the very least.
[17:04] ---
    So this is probably not a misjudgment.
[17:07] ---
    I wouldn't say I look like a normie, but...
[17:10] ---
    What's up, Tomozaki?
[17:14] ---
    I'm...
[17:16] ---
    I'm going to keep at it.
[17:19] ---
    Huh?
[17:24] ---
    "Pit Camera"
[17:24] ---
    Tomozaki, are you sure
    that's what you want to give Shuji?
[17:29] ---
    "PitCam"
[17:29] ---
    "PitCam" Um, yeah.
[17:31] ---
    It's very you, Tomozaki.
[17:33] ---
    Where to next?
[17:36] ---
    I'd like to grab a bite. Anyone else hungry?
[17:40] ---
    Mmm, not really.
[17:42] ---
    I'm getting there.
[17:44] ---
    What about you, Tomozaki?
[17:45] ---
    Yeah, I could eat.
[17:47] ---
    Okay, so in that case...
[17:51] ---
    This place looks good.
    They have lighter stuff, too.
[17:54] ---
    And their specialty?
[17:55] ---
    "Ultimate Four-Cheese Special Pizza"
[17:55] ---
    "Ultimate Four-Cheese Special Pizza."
[17:59] ---
    See?
[18:00] ---
    Well? C'mon, gang!
[18:02] ---
    Wow, Aoi, that was quick!
[18:04] ---
    That's Hinami. If there's cheese involved--
[18:07] ---
    If there's cheese involved, Aoi is all in.
[18:11] ---
    What's wrong with that? Come on!
[18:14] ---
    Take us there already!
[18:16] ---
    Jeez, Aoi, slow down!
[18:18] ---
    You don't even know where you're going!
[18:22] ---
    Let's eat!
[18:24] ---
    Whoa, check this out!
[18:25] ---
    So Mizusawa knew about
    Hinami's cheese obsession.
[18:25] ---
    What is that?
[18:27] ---
    Says it's honey syrup.
[18:28] ---
    Funny syrup"?
[18:30] ---
    Thanks for today, everyone! Bye!
[18:37] ---
    "PitCam"
[18:43] ---
    Later!
[18:44] ---
    See you, Tomozaki.
SIGN    "Yuzu-san: Got it!"
    "Today"
    "Where'd you hear the rumor about
    Hinami and Mizusawa?"
SIGN    "Today"
    "Where'd you hear the rumor about
    Hinami and Mizusawa?"
    "Yuzu-san: Curious, are you?? LOL"
[18:53] ---
    "Yuzu-san: Curious, are you?? LOL"
[18:54] ---
    "Yuzu-san: It's a rumor.
    Like, everyone's saying it"
[18:57] ---
    "Sewing Room 2"
[18:59] ---
    You weren't able to complete your task.
[19:02] ---
    You've thought about why that is, yes?
[19:03] ---
    I did suggest the electronics store...
[19:08] ---
    You needed two suggestions.
[19:11] ---
    And before that? The electronics store
    is the last place we shopped.
[19:15] ---
    You didn't even look like you were
    about to suggest anything before that.
[19:24] ---
    Listen, Hinami--
[19:25] ---
    What now? Not some excuse that'll
    disappoint me even more, I hope.
[19:30] ---
    Uh... it's... it's nothing.
[19:35] ---
    Well, whatever.
[19:36] ---
    Did you pick up on anything or have
    any questions during this shopping trip?
[19:41] ---
    Let's see... I'd say the thing
    that struck me the most...
[19:47] ---
    ...was the realization that my
    appearance had... slightly improved.
[19:52] ---
    Ah! Moving in the right direction!
[19:56] ---
    Visible changes tie into
    motivation and initiative.
[19:57] ---
    "Hero" "Fight" "Magic"
[20:01] ---
    You know that thrill when you start dealing
    three digits of damage to monsters?
[20:02] ---
    "Hero attacks!!"
[20:07] ---
    Oh, sure.
[20:08] ---
    "Fairy summoned!!"
[20:08] ---
    And when you learn a new move, too.
[20:11] ---
    Yes! That's it exactly!
[20:12] ---
    "Hero" "Demonlord" "Fight"
[20:13] ---
    "Demonlord's all-targets spell!!!"
[20:14] ---
    Or when you learn an all-targets spell!
[20:20] ---
    Nothing else about your task, then?
[20:23] ---
    Let me think...
[20:25] ---
    I think Mizusawa's suggestions
    had some real substance.
[20:29] ---
    That first shop was pretty stylish.
[20:33] ---
    Too fancy for me, though--and for my wallet.
[20:38] ---
    Hyinyami?!
[20:40] ---
    Keep your self-deprecating nonsense!
[20:42] ---
    Look, there wasn't a single thing in
    that store that Nakamura would like.
[20:48] ---
    R-Really?
[20:50] ---
    Not that you would have realized that.
[20:53] ---
    And what about the pizza? Was it tasty?
[20:57] ---
    Not especially.
[20:58] ---
    Right?
[20:59] ---
    Taking pizza as an example,
    it doesn't actually have to be delicious...
[21:04] ---
    ...as long as you get people interested
    and make them think it might be.
[21:09] ---
    That's the key to a successful suggestion.
[21:11] ---
    But that means...
[21:13] ---
    "Ease of suggestion acceptance
    Actual quality of suggestion"
[21:13] ---
    The ease of getting
    a suggestion accepted
[21:15] ---
    has nothing to do with how good
    the suggestion actually is.
[21:18] ---
    So you could trick someone into a
    suggestion that just sounds good?
[21:23] ---
    That's right.
[21:25] ---
    What the hell is that?!
[21:27] ---
    "Ease of suggestion acceptance
    Actual quality of suggestion"
[21:27] ---
    The better suggestion doesn't
    always win out? That's just weird!
[21:31] ---
    No, no, no.
[21:32] ---
    It's just a simple rule that ranks more
    persuasive suggestions over quality ones.
[21:38] ---
    Now you're just splitting hairs!
    What a garbage game!
[21:42] ---
    What if there were a negotiation game
    that had you meeting targets
[21:45] ---
    through persuasion?
[21:46] ---
    "The Negotiation Game"
[21:48] ---
    With effective speech skills
    for convincing your audience
[21:49] ---
    "Persuasion"
[21:49] ---
    "Twisted Logic"
[21:50] ---
    "Appeasement"
[21:51] ---
    "Pithy Profundity"
[21:52] ---
    and information warfare tailored
    to each character's tastes,
[21:55] ---
    you'd work to unify interests,
[21:57] ---
    roping influential characters into your party.
[21:57] ---
    "Invite" "Don't Invite"
[22:01] ---
    Would a game rich with so much strategy
[22:05] ---
    still be garbage?
[22:07] ---
    "Ease of suggestion acceptance
    Actual quality of suggestion"
[22:09] ---
    I'd say it was made well.
[22:12] ---
    Then reality's a fun game, too.
[22:15] ---
    Oh... I get it.
[22:17] ---
    In other words,
[22:18] ---
    you won't change anyone's mind
    if all you do is shout at them
[22:22] ---
    about what you think is right.
[22:25] ---
    So you'll have to change.
[22:27] ---
    If you're confident you have a good suggestion,
[22:27] ---
    "Good Suggestion Bad Rule"
[22:30] ---
    you'll have to exploit a bad rule
    to push it through.
[22:35] ---
    Camouflage it as an opinion
    everyone can live with,
[22:37] ---
    even if you just dress it up a little.
[22:40] ---
    That way you can get your suggestion through,
[22:43] ---
    fundamental goodness unchanged.
[22:45] ---
    That's the right way to fight.
[22:48] ---
    Have I convinced you?
[22:51] ---
    Uh... yeah.
[22:53] ---
    We'll begin accepting student
    council nominations today.
[23:00] ---
    Anyone interested?
[23:02] ---
    Me!
[23:04] ---
    I'd like to run.
[23:05] ---
    I knew it!
[23:06] ---
    Oh, she'd be great!
[23:06] ---
    I'd vote for her!
[23:08] ---
    Right?
[23:09] ---
    That's our Aoi!
[23:11] ---
    So is it a given that Hinami's running?
[23:14] ---
    All right. Anybody besides Hinami?
[23:18] ---
    Ooh! Me!
[23:20] ---
    Minami Nanami, at your service!
[23:24] ---
    Minmi...
[23:27] ---
    Mimimi, too?
[23:29] ---
    Anyone else?
[23:31] ---
    Okay. Class dismissed.
[23:34] ---
    Aoi?
[23:36] ---
    If we're fighting over grades...
[23:38] ---
    ...I'm gonna win!
