    Yeah, the length fits perfectly.
[00:07] D
    And the title is right, too.

SIGN    Demo
[00:30] D
    The track itself isn't a bad one, but...
[00:33] M
    It doesn't fit the story at all!
[00:35] D
    It's kinda the opposite. It's got a sad vibe.
[00:39] M
    Which isn't fun at all!
[00:41] M
    We can't use this!
[00:43] M
    Is there anything else?!
[00:44] K
    This is the only track that was sent?
[00:46] D
    It is.
[00:47] D
    I wonder if the idea was to compose it
    using traditional film scoring.
[00:50] M
    It doesn't match the visuals at all!
[00:52] M
    Why?! Let's call them!
[00:53] D
    I dunno, I really doubt a
    rewrite would be ready in time.
[00:58] K
    Is there any other music we can use?
[00:59] M
    Well, we can't use this in the dance scene!
[01:02] M
    It was done to fit the demo,
    so it won't work with anything else!
[01:05] K
    What about the demo itself?
[01:07] M
    Ugh, why'd he change it out of the blue?!
[01:10] M
    Of all the... It's so...!
[01:13] K
    Well, we can't use this. I understand.
[01:19] K
    We'll have to pass on this music.
    Look for some free tracks we can—
[01:24] M
    I'm telling you, there are none!
[01:25] M
    I made sure the animation matched
    the exact timing and rhythm!
[01:28] K
    Well, what do we do, then?
[01:31] K
    We've dragged a lot of other people
    into announcing the day of the sale.
[01:35] K
    All of our advertising and DVD
    sales are targeted for Comet A.
[01:39] K
    Everything has been moving
    toward that one day.
[01:42] K
    Not to mention, having Tsubame Mizusaki at the
    event selling DVDs was a big part of our draw.
[01:48] K
    And there are a lot of
    people who are going to be
[01:50] K
    participating at the special
    screening in Shibahama, too.
[01:52] K
    No matter how the short turns out,
[01:54] K
    our participation in Comet A
    is a 1,000% foregone conclusion.
[01:59] K
    Do you have any ideas, Asakusa?
[02:02] K
    We've got one hour and 32 minutes before
[02:04] K
    our arrangement with the company we
    have making the DVDs for cheap is broken.
[02:08] A
    Can we stretch that out a little?
[02:10] A
    Maybe get us until the morning?
[02:12] K
    I'll try negotiating, just in case,
     but don't get your hopes up.
[02:19] K
    There's something I need your help with.
[02:22] K
    Right. Do you think it's possible?
[02:25] K
    Yes, it's an emergency.
[02:29] K
    I see.
[02:31] K
    Okay, in that case, don't worry about it.
[02:34] K
    Yeah. Right.
[02:36] K
    I hope we can work together
    again some time.
[02:42] ---
    They could only wait as late as midnight tonight.
[02:45] ---
    Any later and the delay fee
    would nearly double the price.
[02:49] ---
    Since we're on a tight budget,
[02:51] ---
    and it probably won't be ready,
     I went ahead and canceled.
[02:53] M
    It wouldn't kill them to just wait a little.
[02:56] M
    We're in big trouble here!
[02:57] K
    This is how it works.
[03:00] K
    An overnight job would mean making
    extra arrangements for their staff...
[03:04] K
    And it'll affect their workload tomorrow.
[03:06] K
    This have their own business to worry about.
[03:08] K
    They don't gain anything by indulging
    our trouble for fun, or out of curiosity.
[03:14] K
    If anything, they're already at a loss,
     since we canceled so suddenly.
[03:17] K
    The school has protected us,
[03:20] K
    and taken our side when they've
    deemed us in need of it,
[03:23] K
    but once we're outside of their jurisdiction,
[03:25] K
    the fact that we're "just students"
    doesn't hold water anymore.
[03:29] K
    That being the case,
[03:30] K
    I now need to come up with a way
    for us to produce these DVDs.
[03:34] K
    I'll figure it out, so don't worry.
[03:36] K
    In the meantime,
[03:37] K
    I need the rest of you to think
    up a way to finish the short.
[03:41] M
    No... but it's already...
[03:42] A
    Think...
[03:44] A
    That's it! Keep thinking!
[03:47] A
    Let's adjust the whole thing to fit this score!
[03:50] A
    We'll ditch the dance scene! And make
     major adjustments to the story!

    What do you mean?
[05:29] K
    You get two seconds to explain.
[05:31] A
    Can't... Neck...
[05:33] K
    Oh, right.
[05:35] A
    I'm sorry, Mizusaki.
[05:36] A
    Something's actually been kinda
    bothering me about the finale.
[05:39] A
    Whether it was a good idea.
[05:40] A
    We can adjust the whole
    thing to suit this music,
[05:44] A
    and then, if we make a new finale,
[05:45] A
    I think it'll turn out even
    better than we we have.
[05:47] M
    Adjust to the music?
[05:49] A
    We can release the dance scene as
    special extra footage somewhere.
[05:55] K
    "Adjust the whole thing."
    "Change the finale."
[05:57] K
    There's no way we have time to—
[05:58] A
    We can use the material we already
    have for everything except the finale!
[06:01] A
    And the finale would only
    be another two cuts!
[06:03] A
    So... we should be able to
    finish by... morning, I think.
[06:08] M
    And the final result will something
    you'd be satisfied with?
[06:12] A
    Indeed!
[06:13] A
    Right now, we have a story where two
    sides with different positions start fighting,
[06:17] A
    and then a pair of prisoners from each side
[06:19] A
    realize everything they have in common,
[06:21] A
    and how a misunderstanding is
    what caused the conflict.
[06:24] A
    "There's no real reason to fight."
    In order to convey that message,
[06:29] A
    the duo repair, and then activate
    a tool that sends a message.
[06:33] A
    The signal goes out.
[06:34] A
    A sound that reaches everywhere.
[06:36] A
    After everyone hears it, they understand
     the truth in an instant,
[06:41] A
    with everyone putting down
    their weapons at once,
[06:43] A
    agreeing to respect each
    other's territory, de-escalate,
SIGN    Coexistence
[06:47] A
    and the relationship turns friendly.
[06:50] A
    And then there's a dance party.
SIGN    Camera continues to gradually pull out, the scene repeating, creating momentum
SIGN    Dance party with
    kappas and
     people begins!!
[06:53] A
    But that'd never happen!

    The idea of "The model who makes anime"
    helps strengthen Mizusaki's identity,
SIGN    @kpst_066 I saw something, but I dunno if it's her or not. #TsubameMizusaki @mooric_07 Whoa, there's someone who kinda looks like Tsubame Mizusaki at Comet A #CometA @gmzymt I think she's selling something, but Tsubame Mizusaki being at Comet A freaked me out... #CometA @2000tinachu Oh, that's cool. #CometA @gmzymt Apparently Tsubame Mizusaki is making an anime while in high school. Impressive. #CometA @mtbokkuri_t2 Saw Tsubame Mizusaki at Comet A with a paper bag on her head lol #CometA @a2k801 Huh?! That was actually Tsubame?! I should've shaked her hand.... <- #TsubameMizusaki #CometA @chelyama wiped out from setting up table #CometA @ryuusis_1710 hang on!!! tsubame's at comet a!!!! she's got a paper bag and is selling an anime for some group!!! why!?!?!?!?! #CometA @bujisawa_0827 It's unbelievable that she's a popular amateur model and an animator. I guess God gives some people two gifts. #CometA @cs_1992_mnm Wow someone at Comet A looks a lot like Tsubame Mizusaki! is what I thought when I passed by, but I guess that's really her. I wonder if she made something. #CometA @asstnt_ss I'm almost there! I hope the book I wanted is still in stock... #CometA @kkk375 That was Tsubame Mizusaki selling something, right?! She was super cute #CometA @yoi_0902 Tsubame made an anime? I should've gone...! #CometA @minami47uv why the paper bag tho #TsubameMizusaki #CometA
[12:22] K
    but if we have people speculating on why
[12:23] K
    she would go as far as to hide her identity,
[12:25] K
    just because she's making anime...

    It will amplify their interest in the project.
