[00:05] Kyoya
Whoa, this soup is delicious!
[00:08] Shino
I'm glad.
[00:09] Shino
It wasn't a mix or anything,
I actually made it from scratch!
[00:13] Maki
Mommy's good at cooking, right?
[00:15] Both
Right!
[00:17] Kyoya
Because of me,
Shinoaki lost her desire to draw,
[00:20] Kyoya
and put down her pen.
[00:22] Kyoya
She lost the future where
she becomes Akishima Shino.
[00:25] Kyoya
And yet...
[00:26] (Flashback) Shino
It's okay now.
[00:28] (Flashback) Kyoya
I'm sorry, Shinoaki.
[00:31] (Flashback) Kyoya
I'm so sorry.
[00:34] Kyoya
To make sure her sacrifice wasn't in vain...
[00:36] Kyoya
I have to live as best I can in this world
that's so different from the one I know.
[00:41] Kyoya
I'll do what I can, at least for now.
[00:45] Kyoya
And carefully, so that I don't
repeat the same mistake.
[02:21] Coworker
Hashiba-san, can you check this?
[02:26] Coworker
What do you think?
[02:27] Kyoya
The body should be good to go.
[02:29] Kyoya
But I think the cloth here might overlap with
the other characters when they're lined up,
[02:33] Kyoya
so make it a little smaller.
[02:35] Coworker
Got it.
[02:36] Kyoya
And about the empty space for a symbol,
[02:38] Kyoya
I had the design for that made separately,
so just stick that in there.
[02:41] Coworker
Wait, you did?
[02:43] Kyoya
Yeah. It'll reduce the workload on
the illustrators, and be easier to reuse.
[02:47] Coworker
I should've known! That will be a big help.
[02:49] Coworker
Hashiba-san, three of the backgrounds
that were in the pipeline are ready.
[02:53] Kyoya
Got it. I'll check them right now.
[02:55] Coworker
The files are pretty big,
so I put them in the shared folder.
[02:58] Kyoya
All right.

[03:00] Kyoya
Huh, guess I'll respond to this email first.
[03:03] Kyoya
It's been a month since
I was sent into 2018,
[03:07] Kyoya
and I'm finally starting
to get used to my job.
[03:09] Kyoya
From the information
I grasped in the meantime,
[03:12] Kyoya
Entertainment Group 3
is working on social games.
[03:17] Kyoya
We're split up into four teams,
labeled A through D,
[03:20] Kyoya
and each of us are working
on different projects in parallel.
[03:23] Kyoya
Kawasegawa is charge of the A Team,
[03:25] Kyoya
which is the team everyone
thinks of regarding this group.
[03:27] Morishita
She's the Chief of
Entertainment Group 3, too,
[03:31] Kawasegawa
What are you doing?!
[03:31] Morishita
which means she's got one rough job.
[03:32] Morishita
Sorry! I'm sorry!
[03:34] Morishita
As for me, I'm the leader of the B Team.
[03:37] Morishita
B Team is known for its consistency
in making headway,
[03:40] Morishita
along with stable contributions
in terms of revenue,
[03:41] Morishita
so we seem to get put onto projects
that need a steady hand.
[03:45] Morishita
It was hard to figure out how to do
a job I have no memories of,
[03:47] Morishita
but once I got used to it,
it wasn't that hard.
[03:51] Morishita
It's not easy, but it's stable work.
[03:55] Morishita
This is for the best, right?
[03:59] Maki
Hey, Daddy, let's play! Come on!
[04:04] Kyoya
Is it okay if I rest today?
[04:06] Maki
That's boring!
[04:08] Maki
Come on, Daddy! Daddy, let's go!
[04:12] Shino
Maki, don't bother him after he said no.
[04:14] Shino
It's Sunday, so let him enjoy his rest.
[04:17] Maki
Don't wanna!
[04:19] Shino
Maki, stop it!
[04:22] Shino
Are you going to apologize to Mr. Bear?
[04:26] Maki
I'm sorry.
[04:28] Shino
Now, listen, Maki...
[04:31] Shino
Whether it's a stuffed animal
or anything else,
[04:33] Shino
all things people make
have spirits in them.
[04:36] Maki
Spirits?
[04:37] Shino
Yep.
[04:38] Shino
And those spirits care a whole bunch
about all those creations.
[04:42] Shino
So if you throw one of them around,
what will they think?
[04:47] Maki
They'll be sad.
[04:49] Shino
Right?
[04:50] Shino
So be sure to be nice to Mr. Bear, Maki.
[04:54] Maki
Okay.
[04:58] Kyoya
All creations have a spirit in them, huh?
[05:02] Kyoya
It's times like this that
I'm sure the woman I'm looking at
[05:05] Kyoya
is the same Shinoaki I knew.
[05:11] Kyoya
I've got a warm home life here.
[05:14] Shino
Hey, why don't we go for a walk?
[05:14] Kyoya
But the brilliant light
I used to look up to...
[05:16] Maki
Yeah!
[05:17] Maki
Can I take Mr. Bear, too?
[05:19] Kyoya
There's no trace of the glamour
of the Platinum Generation anymore.
[05:19] Shino
Of course!
[05:26] Boss
Well, uh, our company
[05:29] Boss
in keeping with our aim
to go public next quarter,
[05:32] Boss
must absolutely ensure we hit
our sales goal for this quarter.
[05:37] Boss
In light of that, Mystic Clockwork*,
[05:40] Boss
the title that our company*
is betting its future on...
[05:43] Boss
will require everyone's support
[05:45] Boss
as we work towards its completion.
[05:47] Boss
That is all.
[05:49] Coworker
I feel terrible for them.
[05:50] Coworker
Team A's been working overnight again.
[05:53] Kyoya
Is it really that bad?
[05:55] Coworker
Well, there's the problem
with Minori Ayaka...
[05:57] Kyoya
Right.
[05:58] Coworker
But there are apparently other illustrators
they haven't been able to contact.
[06:02] Coworker
It sounds like a disaster.
[06:04] Coworker
They've had to cut characters
that were previously in the planning,
[06:06] Coworker
which results in changes to the script.
[06:16] Kyoya
Is Minori-sensei still
having trouble drawing?
[06:19] Morishita
Yes...
[06:20] Morishita
I just got an email from her
[06:22] Morishita
saying that she doubts she'll
manage to meet the deadline,
[06:24] Morishita
no matter how much she works.
[06:27] Kyoya
I thought we had a good conversation
with her the other day.
[06:30] Morishita
It's not that she's slacking or anything!
[06:32] Morishita
But she didn't offer any other explanation.
[06:35] Kyoya
Yeah, and when an artist runs into a block,
[06:37] Kyoya
they're usually
the ones it bothers the most.
[06:39] Morishita
Right. I'm a little worried
that she's letting it overwhelm her.
[06:47] Kyoya
That's strange.
[06:48] Kyoya
There's still no answer.
[06:50] Kyoya
Even though I arranged
an appointment beforehand.
[06:52] Morishita
Should we wait a bit?
[06:54] Kyoya
I'll try and ask her about it.
[07:01] Kyoya
Excuse—
[07:01] Minori
Okay, I'll open it up!
[07:05] Morishita
That was amazing, Hashiba-san!
[07:07] Morishita
She opened it as soon as she responded!
[07:09] Kyoya
Yeah, but... wasn't that a little too fast?
[07:11] Morishita
Of course not!
[07:13] Morishita
She seems to be feeling well,
so come on, let's go!
[07:21] Minori
Hey, thanks for bringing—
[07:33] Minori
Well...
[07:35] Minori
I opened the door because I thought
it was the deliveryman.
[07:39] Kyoya
I thought it was odd,
considering you let us in
[07:41] Kyoya
before we told you who we were.
[07:44] Minori
I don't dress like this outside at all.
[07:47] Minori
It's just something I mess
around with at home.
[07:49] Minori
Every once and a while, that's all.
[07:51] Kyoya
Well, sure, but... it really suits you well.
[07:55] Minori
Oh, thank you.
[07:58] Minori
This is kind of embarrassing!
[08:00] Minori
I mean, you know what they say
about a change of pace.
[08:03] Minori
I was just... really restless.
[08:07] Minori
So this is about
the character designs, right?
[08:10] Morishita
Yes!
[08:12] Minori
I'm sorry! It's exactly like
I wrote in the email.
[08:15] Minori
I've been trying to get things done, but...
[08:18] Minori
I just... haven't been able to so far.
[08:23] Minori
I've been trying all kinds of things
to motivate myself since we last talked,
[08:27] Minori
but it's like none of it works...
even dressing like this.
[08:31] Minori
I just... can't find the right thing.
[08:34] Kyoya
You mean, you can't find the thing
that you want to draw?
[08:42] Kyoya
What about the illustration
from the other day?
[08:44] Minori
That's...
[08:45] Kyoya
When you started creating art seriously,
[08:48] Kyoya
you said that you were drawing with
a style similar to an artist you idolized.
[08:53] Kyoya
Is there any chance that getting a look
at their work might help you?
[09:00] Minori
I'm sorry. Right now, I just... can't.
[09:06] Minori
I'm seriously so sorry.
[09:08] Minori
But... that's not the problem.
[09:13] Morishita
Hashiba-san, I think
that's enough for today.
[09:15] Kyoya
Yeah... okay.
[09:18] Minori
I'm sorry, Morishita-san.
I'll try and figure something out.
[09:22] Morishita
Right.
[09:24] Morishita
There's something she mentioned before.
[09:27] Morishita
The longer you continue in this work,
[09:29] Morishita
you're bound to get into a rut,
[09:32] Morishita
where you'll be completely
unable to draw anything.
[09:35] Kyoya
And I guess now is that time.
[09:37] Morishita
Yes. But there was more to what she said...
[09:41] Morishita
Once you get the right trigger,
[09:43] Morishita
you're suddenly able to draw again,
[09:45] Morishita
like you were never blocked
in the first place.
[09:48] Kyoya
A trigger, huh...
[09:49] Morishita
For now, I think even being able to meet
with her today was a big accomplishment!
[09:53] Morishita
Thank you so much.
[09:55] Kyoya
Nah...
[09:57] Kyoya
The expression I saw on
Minori-sensei's face last time...
[10:00] (Flashback) Minori
There's an artist I used to idolize,
[10:03] (Flashback) Minori
and this is their style.
[10:05] (Flashback) Minori
I seriously, seriously love their stuff!
[10:08] Kyoya
There has to be something to that.
[10:10] Kyoya
Something that'll get her drawing again.
[10:13] Kyoya
That's the impression that I got.
[10:18] Kyoya
Kawasegawa-kun,
do you realize what you're saying?!
[10:20] Kyoya
The characters designed by Minori Ayaka
are the headliners this time!
[10:24] Kyoya
It's already been announced to the public.
[10:26] Kyoya
Delays are out of the question!
[10:29] Kyoya
In the end, it was decided
that Minori Ayaka's illustrations
[10:31] Kyoya
wouldn't be ready in time for release.
[10:34] Coworker
Team A is already running on fumes
with little sleep and no time off...
[10:39] Coworker
Add this to it all, and I can't help
but feel sorry for them.
[10:41] Kyoya
Is it really that bad?
[10:43] Coworker
Take a look here.
SIGN Delayed
[10:45] Coworker
They're talking about releasing
in a month, despite all this.
[10:47] Coworker
They're going through hell.
[10:49] Coworker
Not to mention this mandate that they do it
on an internally developed engine.
[10:54] Boss
Look, just get it done! All right?!
[10:57] Eiko
It's been a while since you last asked
me to join you for lunch, hasn't it?
[11:01] Kyoya
I guess.
[11:02] Kyoya
We've both been busy lately.
[11:08] Eiko
You want to talk about my
team's project, don't you?
[11:10] Kyoya
W-Well... yeah.
[11:13] Kyoya
I was looking at the progress sheet.
[11:15] Kyoya
Things don't seem to be going very well.
[11:18] Eiko
That's one way of putting it.
Another is that we're doomed.
[11:21] Eiko
I'm tempted to fly the coop to Okinawa.
[11:29] Kyoya
Wait, so Mystic Clockwork
was originally a SucceedSoft title?
[11:34] Eiko
You didn't know that?
[11:36] Kyoya
I mean, of course I did!
[11:38] Kyoya
If it came from a major player like Succeed,
[11:41] Kyoya
I bet all the pre-production materials
were in good shape.
[11:43] Kyoya
Wouldn't that make things relatively easier?
[11:46] Eiko
Everyone thought that, at first. But...
[11:52] Eiko
Get a load of the requests they sent in.
[11:54] Kyoya
These are all requests for different takes?
[11:56] Kyoya
And there's a lot...
[11:58] Kyoya
There wasn't a limit set on this
kind of thing beforehand?
[12:00] Eiko
I wouldn't be in this mess if there were.
[12:03] Eiko
By the time it was put into my lap,
[12:06] Eiko
the contract was already
signed under these conditions.
[12:09] Kyoya
And when you top it off with an
independently-developed, internal engine...
[12:13] Eiko
Yeah. Yet another source of headaches.
[12:17] Eiko
We don't have enough time
to outsource anything,
[12:19] Eiko
and when there are errors in the engine,
they rear their head in scripting, too.
[12:23] Eiko
Since the art assets are so late,
we're still using placeholders...
[12:27] Eiko
Which means the presentation
can't be finalized.
[12:29] Eiko
It's like we're making
every possible mistake.
[12:36] Kyoya
Listen, Kawasegawa...
[12:38] Eiko
I know.
[12:39] Eiko
The release needs to be delayed
or major changes need to be made,
[12:43] Eiko
one or the other, or there's
going to be major fallout.
[12:45] Eiko
Right?
[12:47] Eiko
But it's not happening.
[12:48] Eiko
Things are already beyond my ability
to make any kind of positive difference.
[12:54] Eiko
Sorry for worrying you.
[12:56] Eiko
But there's just...
nothing that can be done.
[12:59] Kyoya
Nothing... that can be done?
[13:03] Kyoya
This isn't like you!
[13:04] Kyoya
You've always tried to do your best,
until the very last second!
[13:10] Eiko
You're right. Thank you.
[13:13] Eiko
But you're the only person
who thinks that anymore.
[13:16] Kyoya
That's...
[13:18] Eiko
Sorry. I'm gonna head on back.
[13:27] Boss
You just don't get it!
[13:29] Kyoya
But sir, if they proceed at this rate,
the game will have bugs,
[13:33] Kyoya
which could lead to defects
nobody's imagined.
[13:36] Boss
You deal with bugs
and defects as they pop up.
[13:38] Boss
That's the whole point of maintenance.
[13:42] Boss
Look, I know that you need time
to make something good.
[13:46] Boss
But in this business, timing is everything!
[13:49] Boss
And delaying the release
is out of the question!
[13:51] Kyoya
But—
[13:51] Boss
Enough!
[13:52] Boss
This period is going to be crucial
for the company's trust going forward!
[13:56] Boss
We're going to go public at the same time
[13:58] Boss
as we release a big title
developed on an internal engine!
[14:01] Boss
You don't need to be a manager
to understand how important this is!
[14:08] Kyoya
But the engine isn't trustworthy.
It might not even be practical.
[14:15] Boss
Mystic Clockwork will be
released on schedule.
[14:19] Boss
It's set in stone.
[14:26] Boss
Hashiba-kun...
[14:30] Boss
This is Kawasegawa-kun's job.
[14:33] Boss
You need to focus on your own tasks.
[14:35] Boss
Don't meddle where you're not needed.
[14:40] Boss
Understand? I trust you.
[14:46] Kyoya
Right...
[14:51] Kyoya
Don't meddle, huh?
[14:56] Kyoya
Thinking about it now,
[14:57] Kyoya
when I showed up in their lives
ten years ago, I changed the world.
[15:02] Kyoya
My friends, who were supposed to have become
[15:04] Kyoya
the stars known as
the Platinum Generation...
[15:06] Kyoya
lost their dreams because of me.
[15:08] Kyoya
I might have been trying to help,
[15:11] Kyoya
but my interference ended up taking
something important from them.
SIGN From the Desk of Rokuonji Tsurayuki

[15:16] Kyoya
And if that's the case...
[15:21] Kyoya
There's nothing that can be done.
[15:25] Kyoya
The month after that, Mystic Clockwork*
launched on schedule.
[15:30] Passerbys
Hey, did you play that already?
[15:32] Passerbys
Yeah, I installed it, but...
[15:34] Kyoya
We were able to start the service,
[15:36] Kyoya
but bugs started popping up,
the server kept going down...
[15:39] Kyoya
There was no shortage of issues.
[15:41] Kyoya
The staff is working to put out fires, while*
still having little sleep and no days off,
[15:44] Kyoya
but the problems are outpacing them.
[15:46] Passerby
Plus, the characters
by Minori Ayaka got delayed...
[15:49] Passerby
Which sucks all the wind
out of my gacha sails.
[15:51] Passerby
Huh, really?
[15:57] Kyoya
There's nothing that can be done.
[16:05] Maki
Hey, Mommy, draw a horse right here!
[16:09] Shino
I'm sorry, but Mommy's
not a very good artist.
[16:13] Maki
Aw, come on!
[16:15] Maki
I can't draw a horse right!
[16:19] Shino
I'm making dinner right now, okay?
[16:22] Kyoya
Okay, let Daddy draw it for you.
[16:25] Maki
Yay!
[16:26] Shino
I appreciate it, honey.
[16:29] Kyoya
It's nothing. Don't worry.
[16:31] Kyoya
What kind of horse do you want?
[16:31] Kyoya
Shinoaki used to be able to
draw anything incredibly well.
[16:33] Maki
A zebra!
[16:34] Kyoya
A... zebra?
[16:36] Kyoya
Her art always pulsated with an energy
[16:37] Kyoya
that made you feel like
it could jump to life.
[16:40] Kyoya
But now... she doesn't draw anymore.
[16:45] Kyoya
Even when her beloved daughter asks her.
[16:47] Maki
Looks weird!
[16:49] Maki
Daddy, you suck!
[16:51] Kyoya
You think?
[16:52] Shino
Don't be like that, Maki.
[16:54] Shino
Daddy was nice enough to draw one for you.
[16:57] Maki
But look!
[16:58] Shino
Oh, that's a cute puppy!
[17:01] Kyoya
Sorry, one sec.
[17:05] Kyoya
Hello, Morishita-san? I'm at home right now.
[17:08] Kyoya
Did something happen?
[17:11] Kyoya
Okay. Okay.
[17:14] Kyoya
I understand.
[17:15] Shino
Was that work?
[17:16] Kyoya
Sorry. I need to step out.
[17:20] Morishita
I'm so sorry to bother you on your day off!
[17:22] Kyoya
So what's happened?
[17:24] Morishita
It seems that the gacha rates
are varying from account to account!
[17:27] Kyoya
Seriously?! That shouldn't be possible!
[17:29] Morishita
Yes, but...
[17:31] Morishita

For real?!
My first ten-pull and I got an SSR!
#MysticClockwork #MysClo
[17:42] Kyoya
This resulted in the already simmering
resentment at the low SSR rates...
SIGN Kaze-san
SIGN Is this fraud?
[17:47] Kyoya
mixing together with the persistent bugs
to create a storm of discontent.
SIGN Usakichi
SIGN Celebs get special treatment.
SIGN Taiyoushin
SIGN Don't screw with gamers!
SIGN Attraction Point Co. Ltd
SIGN An Apology and Update Regarding Mystic Clockwork
[17:51] Kyoya
And to make things worse...
SIGN It's very unfortunate that a certain number
of malicious users are causing problems with the service,
and the issue will be resolved in an update to the application.
[17:54] Kyoya
The company totally blew it
with their response.
[17:56] Kyoya
Which led to a surge of complaints...
[17:58] Kyoya
The app's currently undergoing
an indefinite period of maintenance.
[18:03] Kyoya
And to make things even worse...
[18:04] Boss
You have to do something, Kawasegawa-kun!
[18:06] Kyoya
The internally-developed engine that
had been a potential problem from day one
[18:09] Kyoya
was now a major problem.
[18:12] Eiko
Sir, I already told you...
[18:15] Eiko
Unless we address the fundamental
issues causing all this—
[18:17] Boss
Well, we obviously can't do that
at this stage, can we?!
[18:20] Eiko
So you expect us to keep
a house of cards from falling apart
[18:23] Eiko
with more temporary stopgap measures?!
[18:26] Boss
Yes! Exactly!
[18:27] Boss
We can't do anything else at this point!
[18:40] Morishita
Hashiba-san!
[18:44] Boss
There's no stopping the train once its going!
[18:47] Boss
That's the kind of business we're in!
[18:49] Eiko
I'm trying to say—
[18:50] Boss
Enough already!
[18:51] Boss
I don't care what kind of bull you
have to spew. Just deal with it!
[18:54] Morishita
Hashiba-san!
[18:56] Kyoya
I'm sorry...
[18:57] Kyoya
But there's nothing I can do.
[19:03] Boss
It doesn't matter what comes later,
so stop worrying about it.
[19:04] Kyoya
I decided not to make
the same mistake again.
[19:06] Boss
Everything in this business
comes down to speed and timing.
[19:07] Kyoya
So that I can protect this world.
[19:09] Boss
While we're having this chat,
users are already ditching the service!
[19:10] Kyoya
Which is why... there's nothing I can do.
[19:14] Eiko
Even if it ends up taking longer,
SIGN An update for you... N@NA has posted a new video.
[19:15] Eiko
we'd be better off admitting our mistakes,
[19:17] Eiko
and prioritizing an effort to
fix the underlying problems!
[19:21] Eiko
Pretending like we're fixing things when we're
not while taking our audience for granted
[19:24] Eiko
will be the exact thing that makes
people give up on this game!
SIGN Excuse time!
SIGN Excuse time!
[19:29] Nanako
Hey there! It's N@NA!
[19:32] Nanako
Um... first, well...
[19:35] Nanako
I'm sorry!
[19:36] Nanako
I just said I was going to give up,
yet here I am, posting again.
[19:40] Nanako
And with an original song!
[19:42] Nanako
Man, how long has it been
since I uploaded something original?
[19:47] Nanako
Y'know, a long time ago, during college...
[19:51] Nanako
There was someone who told me to sing.
[19:54] Nanako
That was what set me
down the road of singing.
[19:58] Nanako
Yeah... it's his fault.
[20:01] Nanako
It's all his fault.
[20:04] Nanako
But... because of him,
[20:07] Nanako
someone as unremarkable
as me started singing!
[20:10] Nanako
I found something I could be serious about.
[20:12] Nanako
But I didn't keep at it...
[20:15] Nanako
I just relied on him,
instead of working hard myself...
[20:18] Nanako
And the second he was gone,
I started slacking.
[20:21] Nanako
I blamed it all on him,
and wanted to give up.
[20:26] Nanako
But... I... even if it's only me...
[20:31] Nanako
I don't want to be the one
who invalidates everything he did!
[20:35] Nanako
Which is why I'm going to
be singing some more!
[20:58] Kyoya
I don't think what I did
can ever be forgiven.
[21:01] Kyoya
And yet...
[21:02] Kyoya
In this world made by my own failings,
I found some small salvation.
[21:07] Kyoya
Not from the popular singer, N@NA...
[21:11] Kyoya
But Kogure Nanako was still singing...
[21:13] Kyoya
She hadn't given up on the thing
that she took seriously.
[21:16] Kyoya
She blamed me...
and said it was thanks to me.
[21:21] Kyoya
And that I wasn't just meddling.
[21:26] Nanako
Thanks for listening all the way to the end!
[21:30] Nanako
Well, see you next time!
[21:34] Boss
I am the president of this company!
[21:35] Eiko
It can't be done!
[21:36] Eiko
If we do that, it'll mean more bugs—
[21:36] Kyoya
Thank you, Nanako.
[21:38] Boss
There's nothing else we can do!
[21:41] Boss
Now would you just do as I tell you?!
[21:49] Kyoya
There's no way... there's nothing*...*
[21:53] Kyoya
that we can do!
[22:02] Kyoya
We're going to figure something out, damn it!
