**[00:01] M**
This is nothing like the demo!
**[00:02] M**
Are you sure it's the right file?
**[00:05] D**
Yeah, the length fits perfectly.
**[00:07] D**
And the title is right, too.
I'm pretty sure this is it.

***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!

**[05:26] K**
You want to what?! After all
this time!? Is that a joke?!
**[05:28] M**
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!
**[06:55] A**
Even in times of peace, different sides
will jockey for position and benefits!
**[06:59] A**
Take any respected individual.

**[07:01] A**
Once their interests don't align
with yours, that opinion changes!
**[07:17] A**
The majority of what's going
on in the world isn't peaceful!
**[07:23] A**
There's no such thing as a perfect 50/50 split!
**[07:29] K**
Even when you share the same ideals,
**[07:31] K**
making certain distinctions
can still be hard, true.
**[07:34] K**
So what happens?
**[07:36] A**
The fighting doesn't stop!
**[07:38] A**
But even then, the POW human
and POW kappa don't give up!
**[07:42] A**
They try again!
**[07:44] A**
Even if what they think is right doesn't work,
**[07:46] A**
they keep thinking, and keep
doing what they believe is right!
**[07:51] M**
Hey, neither of them will
be able to back down, now!
**[07:54] M**
Are they both going to die?
**[07:57] A**
The path they ultimately choose is...

**[11:56] M**
I'm hungry for some sincere criticism.
**[11:58] M**
I bet that's something that'll never go away.
**[12:02] K**
All right.
**[12:04] K**
Time for paper bags.
***SIGN*** Pictures
**[12:08] Crowd**
Is that Tsubame Mizusaki?
**[12:10] A**
Seems pretty obvious who she is, bag or not.
**[12:13] K**
And that's fine. It's all stagecraft.
**[12:16] K**
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...
**[12:26] K**
It will amplify their interest in the project.
**[12:29] Crowd**
I'd like a copy.
**[12:30] Crowd**
Me, too.
**[12:32] Crowd**
Can I get one?

Turning a profit from these kinds of

but when you factor in the awareness
that this has built for us,
**[13:44] K**
I think we can call this project a success.
**[13:46] M**
The reactions on social
media were pretty good, too!
**[14:01] A**
Come to think of it,
**[14:02] A**
Doumeki just recorded some audio from
the show floor and then left, huh?
**[14:06] K**
She doesn't believe in group activities
for their own sake, after all.

Kinda hard to say for sure
without Asakusa's input, but...

Even then, it's pretty easy...

...to imagine what she's going to say.

There's still a lot of room for improvement.
