[00:06] Kyoya
    I fell asleep?
[00:09] Kyoya
    Sh-Shinoaki?!
[00:13] Shino
    Guess the sun's up.
[00:17] Shino
    G'morning.
[00:20] Kyoya
    Uh, good morning.

[00:22] Kyoya
    Oh, you came to check out reference material,
     and then fell asleep.
[00:25] Shino
    Sorry for falling asleep like that.
[00:28] Shino
    But I think I've got the right idea
    for what I wanna draw next!
[00:31] Kyoya
    That's good. I guess you'll
    be getting back to work...
[00:38] Kyoya
    Um...
[00:40] Kyoya
    This... is confirmed now, right?
[00:49] Nanako
    Kyoya!
[00:50] Nanako
    Breakfast is ready, so get your butt—
[00:54] Nanako
    Wow. Pretty bold, aren't you?
[00:56] Kyoya
    Uh, it's not that, we were just—
[00:58] Nanako
    Well, get a move on! Tsurayuki's waiting!
[01:03] Shino
    What do you reckon she's mad about?
[01:08] Kyoya
    Tsurayuki, the professor mentioned
    you'd been missing class lately.
[01:13] Roku
    Yeah, I've been packing
    in the shifts at work lately.
[01:16] Nanako
    You sure you weren't just skipping class?
[01:19] Roku
    What, like you? Stupid.
[01:20] Nanako
    It's rude to call people stupid, stupid!
[01:23] Shino
    Is that what it was? I was worried
    you weren't feeling too good.
[01:29] Roku
    Nah, that's not it at all.
    I'm the picture of health.
[01:33] Shino
    That's good.
[01:38] Roku
    I'll be going to class more
    regularly starting next week.
[01:41] Roku
    So tell the prof not to worry.
[01:43] Kyoya
    Okay. Sure.
[01:46] Kyoya
    But in the following week,
    Tsurayuki didn't show up for class.
[01:53] Kyoya
    I'm heading out!
[01:56] Roku
    Let go of me already!
[01:58] Shino
    I sure as heck ain't!
[02:00] Kyoya
    What's going on, you two?
[02:02] Roku
    I said I was fine, but she
    won't shut up about getting rest!
[02:05] Shino
    How in tarnation are you fine?!
[02:07] Shino
    You've been under th' weather
     all the time lately!
[02:09] Shino
    You just threw up in the bathroom!
[02:11] Roku
    I just ate too much yesterday!
[02:13] Roku
    Seriously, it's nothing,
    just stop worry...ing...
[02:17] Kyoya
    Tsurayuki!
[02:18] Shino
    Tsurayuki-kun!
[02:19] Kyoya
    Come on! Hang in there, Tsurayuki!
[02:28] Roku
    See? I told you, it was nothing.
[02:31] Kyoya
    How exactly is sleep deprivation
    and burnout from work nothing?
[02:35] Kyoya
    The doctor said you needed
    to get plenty of bed rest!
[02:39] Kyoya
    And to not do any work that involves
    physical activity for the foreseeable future.
[02:43] Roku
    Sorry for dragging you out here.
[02:45] Roku
    You don't need to worry any more, though.
[02:51] Kyoya
    Tsurayuki, what are you so on edge about?
[02:55] Kyoya
    It's weird. You're working
    yourself to death.
[03:00] Roku
    It's none of your business.
[03:02] Kyoya
    Why not? Tell me the reason.
[03:04] Kyoya
    I might be able to help!
[03:06] Roku
    How the hell are you gonna do that?!
[03:10] Roku
    Sorry for yelling, man.
[03:14] Roku
    Look... I'm fighting with my parents.
[03:18] Roku
    I've been paying my tuition myself.
[03:21] Roku
    I come from a long line of doctors,
    so they want me to be one, too.
[03:25] Roku
    I ran out because I didn't want to do that.
[03:28] Roku
    And with that kind of background,
    I couldn't get a scholarship.
[03:31] Roku
    So I took on as much work as I could.
[03:34] Roku
    But I guess if I have to ditch class for work,
    I'm putting the cart in front of the horse.
[03:41] Roku
    I managed to rebel against my
    parents for this long, but...
[03:44] Roku
    I think my little struggle for independence
    has gone as far as it can.
[03:48] Roku
    If I can't pay my tuition, and can't work,
     then I can't do anything.
[03:53] Roku
    I've got nothing left.
[03:58] Roku
    There's just no way.
[04:03] Kyoya
    There's no way?
[04:06] Kyoya
    There has to be!
[04:08] Kyoya
    I know there has to be something! Think!
[04:14] Kyoya
    There is something.
[04:17] Kyoya
    A way for you to make money on your own.
[04:24] Roku
    You are seriously something, man!
[04:27] Roku
    Whenever we think something
    is a lost cause, you flip it around...
[04:31] Roku
    And somehow manage to pull it off.
[04:33] Roku
    But I'm telling you...
[04:35] Roku
    That this is no joke, all right?
[04:38] Roku
    You're dealing with something I don't want
    other people messing with right now!
[04:42] Roku
    When you say this is possible,
    do you realize that?!
[04:44] Kyoya
    I do.
[04:45] Roku
    It doesn't look like it!
[04:52] Kyoya
    I'm not just tossing out a theory here.
[04:54] Kyoya
    I have a plan.
[05:00] Roku
    You actually have an idea?
[05:06] Kyoya
    Yeah.
[05:09] Kyoya
    I do.
[05:12] Kyoya
    We'll figure it out.
    We really will, damn it!
[06:50] Nanako
    We're all...
[06:51] Roku
    ...going to make...
[06:52] Shino
    ...a game?
[06:53] Kyoya
    That's right.
[06:54] Roku
    Like, the kind you play on a console?
[06:58] Roku
    What we're going to make is a doujin game,
    and they're usually played on PCs.
[07:02] Shino
    Doujin game?
[07:04] Kyoya
    Right.
[07:05] Kyoya
    It's not like games made by businesses
    and distributed to retailers.
[07:07] Kyoya
    Individuals work together to make them...
    And then sell them at direct market events.
[07:11] Nanako
    Oh, I get it, like indie music.
[07:14] Roku
    And we're going to be making a novel game,
[07:18] Roku
    which uses text and images
    for a sort of picture show.
[07:22] Roku
    That way, we won't need a lot
    of technical expertise, plus...
[07:26] Roku
    I get you!
[07:27] Roku
    And I'm going to write the script?
[07:30] Kyoya
    Exactly!
[07:31] Kyoya
    Shinoaki can do the illustrations.
[07:33] Kyoya
    And Nanako will handle the background music.
[07:36] Shino
    Sure thing! Sounds like fun!
[07:38] Nanako
    But I've hardly composed anything before.
[07:42] Kyoya
    I'll teach you how, along with how
    to use the equipment involved.
[07:45] Kyoya
    I'm going to be the director,
    so I'll be there to back you all up.
[07:50] Shino
    Having you manage everything
    is a big relief, Kyoya-kun!
[07:54] Nanako
    Well, if Kyoya-kun's in charge,
    that's reassuring.
[07:57] Roku
    I'm sorry to drag you all into my business!
[08:01] Shino
    You don't need to worry none.
[08:03] Nanako
    Man, I've never seen
    Tsurayuki grateful before!
[08:06] Roku
    I'm deducting my gratitude toward you.
[08:08] Nanako
    Why?! You should give me extra, in fact!
[08:13] Keiko
    Whatcha need?
[08:15] Keiko
    You decided to finally help our circle out?
[08:18] Kyoya
    I'm sorry. Not exactly...
[08:21] Kyoya
    I wanted to ask you about something important.
[08:23] Keiko
    Damn, you seem pretty serious.
[08:26] Keiko
    You get into some kinda trouble, kid?
[08:29] Keiko
    Or didja mess around with the wrong gal?
[08:33] Kyoya
    I need to earn some money!
[08:36] Keiko
    Gimme the details.
[08:43] Keiko
    I get ya...
[08:46] Keiko
    That does seem like you'd
    needta put a rush on it.
[08:48] Kyoya
    Right. Tuition is due by May,
    so before then...
[08:53] Keiko
    Making money offa doujin
    games ain't easy, though.
[08:58] Keiko
    You kids might be talented,
    but the trick to selling this kinda stuff
[09:01] Keiko
    is having a big name attached.
[09:04] Kyoya
    I know. That's what I'm asking
    to borrow from you.
[09:08] Keiko
    I getcha.
[09:10] Keiko
    You wanna put your game out
    as a new release from Hallucigenia Soft?
[09:14] Kyoya
    I realize how presumptuous this is.
[09:17] Kyoya
    But... it's the only solution I can think of.
[09:22] Keiko
    All right. You can use our name.
[09:26] Kyoya
    Really?! Thank you so much!
[09:28] Keiko
    But in exchange...
[09:31] Keiko
    I've got some stipulations.
[09:32] Kyoya
    You do?
[09:35] Kyoya
    It has to be something
    that will sell well, huh?
[09:38] Kyoya
    That's a simple request, but a tough one.
[09:42] Kyoya
    It's ten years in the past, so the urban
    fantasy trend has just about run its course.
[09:46] Kyoya
    What came after that?
[09:48] Kyoya
    It has to be easy to understand, simple to
    conceive of, but steadfastly popular.
[09:53] Kyoya
    Okay!
[09:55] Shino
    A school story?
[09:57] Roku
    And that is...
[09:58] Kyoya
    Right! I need to explain that part, too.
[10:02] Kyoya
    Well, school stories are...
[10:05] Kyoya
    Stories that take place
    in and surrounding a school.
[10:08] Roku
    So it's super literal?
    Still not sure I get it.
[10:12] Roku
    Shouldn't there be like,
    monsters and stuff, too?
[10:15] Kyoya
    I don't think that would be
    a good idea at this stage.
[10:19] Kyoya
    I can't be certain, but there's
    a good chance it wouldn't sell.
[10:23] Roku
    So it's a question of popularity.
[10:25] Roku
    In that case, I guess I get it.
[10:28] Kyoya
    Now, most games with school stories
    tend to focus on romance.
[10:32] Nanako
    R-Romance?!
[10:34] Kyoya
    Are you okay?
[10:35] Nanako
    T-Totally fine!
[10:38] Nanako
    Continue, by all means.
[10:39] Kyoya
    There are also sexy scenes where—
[10:42] Roku
    Sex?!
[10:45] Kyoya
    I-Is there a problem?
[10:53] Roku
    Kyoya!
[10:54] Roku
    You're talking about like...
    actual scenes where people do it, right?
[10:58] Kyoya
    I am. That's a part of it.
[11:04] Roku
    To be honest with you, I don't have
    any of that kind of experience.
[11:09] Kyoya
    That kind as in...
[11:13] Kyoya
    Oh! I-It's fine!
[11:15] Kyoya
    There are professional writers who deal
    with that kind of material without any experience.
[11:18] Roku
    You mean it?!
[11:19] Kyoya
    Yeah! So, don't worry.
[11:22] Roku
    I see...
[11:25] Roku
    Man, what am I gonna do?
[11:27] Kyoya
    So I think we should make a school story.
[11:30] Shino
    Teacher, question!
[11:32] Kyoya
    What is it?
[11:32] Shino
    I've never played games like that before.
[11:35] Shino
    So I'm not really sure what one's like.
[11:37] Nanako
    Oh, me neither.
[11:39] Kyoya
    You want to try one?
[11:42] Kyoya
    I have some installed on this laptop.
[11:45] Nanako
    O-Okay, we'll go check it out.
[11:49] Nanako
    Come on!
[11:49] Shino
    Okay!
[11:57] Nanako
    Wh-What is that?!
[11:59] Kyoya
    What's wrong?
[12:00] Nanako
    That cute girl showed up...
[12:02] Nanako
    But then there was all that stuff,
    and they did something crazy!
[12:05] Nanako
    I was so shocked and embarrassed!
[12:07] Kyoya
    Nanako, that hurts!
[12:09] Nanako
    What the heck was that?! Seriously!
[12:09] Shino
    I don't really get what was going on,
    but the game seems fun.
[12:13] Kyoya
    Ow!
[12:13] Nanako
    It was way more extreme than "fun"!
[12:17] Nanako
    Kyoya, you stupid pervert!
    I have no idea what's wrong with you!
[12:25] Kyoya
    This isn't going to be easy...
[12:27] Kyoya
    But I can't give up.
[12:31] Kyoya
    I'm the only one who can help Tsurayuki.
[12:38] Eiko
    Hashiba!
[12:40] Eiko
    Care to join me for lunch?
[12:42] Kyoya
    Sorry, I've got to meet somebody!
[12:49] Kiryu
    How do you know
    about this guy anyway, Hashy?
[12:52] Kyoya
    I happened to see his work
     at the school festival.
[12:54] Kyoya
    And I thought he'd be perfect...
[12:56] Kiryu
    I'm amazed you remember
     something like that.
[12:59] Kyoya
    Well, what I really remember is his name
    from ten years in the future.
[13:04] Yamashina
    I'm the club president,
    Yamashina. Nice to meet you.
[13:07] Kyoya
    I'm Hashiba.
[13:08] Kyoya
    I'll get right to the point.
[13:10] Kyoya
    I'd like you to handle the backgrounds
    for our doujin game.
[13:14] Yamashina
    That sounds great.
[13:15] Yamashina
    I can't do character art, so my work
    doesn't get a lot of attention.
[13:21] Kyoya
    That settles that! Next is equipment!
[13:25] Clerk
    Thank you very much!
[13:27] Keiko
    I heard they opened
    a big Yodobushi in Umeda,
[13:30] Keiko
    but if you want actual parts,
    nothing beats Ponbashi.
[13:33] Kyoya
    I'm amazed at how much we bought.
[13:36] Keiko
    Well, when you're making a game,
[13:38] Keiko
    it pays to make sure you've got beefy hardware.
[13:40] Keiko
    Otherwise...
[13:43] Kyoya
    Is something wrong?
[13:45] Keiko
    Get a load of that.
[13:47] Kyoya
    She definitely stands out, doesn't she?
[13:50] Keiko
    You figure some li'l princess is out
    buying doujinshi in secret?
[13:54] Kyoya
    I doubt it. Anyway, Keiko-san,
    didn't you have more shopping?
[13:57] Keiko
    Oh, good point! Let's get a move on.
[14:05] Kanou
    I see...
[14:07] Kanou
    I didn't realize that Rokuonji
    was in that kind of situation.
[14:09] Kyoya
    Right, which is why we're all
    working together to support him.
[14:13] Kanou
    You are? This isn't any kind
    of shady work, is it?
[14:16] Kyoya
    N-No, don't worry!
[14:19] Kyoya
    I'm not sure what she'd say if I told her
    we're working on a doujin game.
[14:23] Kanou
    I thought you might do something like
    borrow the name of a famous circle
[14:27] Kanou
    to try and sell a doujin game
    that you're making.
[14:31] Kanou
    What's wrong?
[14:32] Kyoya
    Uh, Sensei, where did you hear about that?
[14:36] Keiko
    Doncha know that honesty's the best policy?
[14:39] Kyoya
    K-Keiko-san?!
[14:44] Kyoya
    So the two of you have worked
    on games together before?
[14:49] Kanou
    Right. I'm retired, though.
[14:52] Keiko
    Kanou-chan was a big help back in the day!
[14:55] Keiko
    And if her student's in trouble,
    I figure it's the least I could do to help!
[14:59] Kanou
    Is that it? Because I thought you were
    interested in turning a profit.
[15:03] Keiko
    I mean, the cash
    is a separate issue altogether!
[15:07] Kyoya
    I think I'll choose to believe in
    the more admirable motivation.
[15:09] Kanou
    Well, Keiko's explained what's
    going on with your game dev,
[15:13] Kanou
    but don't let it interfere
    too much with your studies.
[15:16] Kyoya
    It's okay, then?
[15:18] Kanou
    Every aspect of production
    is going to aid in your education.
[15:22] Kanou
    I think it'll be a good experience.
[15:25] Keiko
    How's it coming along, anyway?
[15:27] Keiko
    Smooth sailing so far?
[15:29] Kyoya
    W-Well... sure.
[15:38] Roku
    I don't get it!
[15:41] Kyoya
    What's wrong?
[15:43] Roku
    I've been playing that game
    you lent me as a sample.
[15:47] Roku
    All of those girls, for no reason
    and with no impetus,
[15:50] Roku
    are in love with me
    as soon as the game begins!
[15:53] Roku
    What's up with that?!
[15:55] Kyoya
    That's just how it goes.
    Try to understand.
[15:57] Roku
    Okay, but even if I'm willing to accept that,
[16:00] Roku
    what's with their speech?!
[16:02] Roku
    "Takumi-kun, I hope you had
    a meowy good day at work!"
[16:04] Roku
    Who talks like that?!
[16:06] Kyoya
    It's just how these things go...
[16:08] Nanako
    Kyoya...
[16:11] Kyoya
    N-Nanako?!
[16:13] Nanako
    I don't get it.
[16:16] Nanako
    I have no idea how composing
    on a computer works.
[16:20] Nanako
    What's going on there?
[16:21] Nanako
    Instead of a musical score,
    there are these weird bars.
[16:24] Kyoya
    I know it might be confusing at first,
[16:26] Kyoya
    but once you get used to it,
    it's easier! Okay?
[16:29] Nanako
    You sure?
[16:33] Shino
    Kyoya-kun!
[16:34] Shino
    Art for games is tough, huh?
[16:39] Kyoya
    Shinoaki!
[16:41] Kyoya
    Please... Please, refer to the
    sample art I gave you! Okay?
[16:46] Roku
    This is about the furthest possible
    thing from smooth sailing.
[16:54] Teacher
    Control the centrifugal force
    by keeping your left wrist steady.
[16:59] Kyoya
    I got hardly any sleep last night.
[17:03] Kyoya
    Shinoaki?
[17:08] Kyoya
    Shinoaki!
[17:10] Shino
    I'm a little sleepy...
[17:12] Kyoya
    More than a little! Be careful—
[17:16] Kyoya
    Nanako?!
[17:21] Nanako
    I dozed off...
[17:24] Kyoya
    Here, let me wipe that off!
[17:26] Roku
    What's up, Kyoya? Everything going okay?
[17:31] Kyoya
    You're the one not doing okay!
    What are you even making?!
[17:36] Roku
    Hey, you're right. My bad.
[17:38] Teacher
    That group over there!
    What are you all doing?!
[17:41] Kyoya
    Sorry!
[17:44] Eiko
    What is going on?
[17:46] Eiko
    You've all been half-asleep through
    both your general education and arts classes.
[17:50] Kyoya
    Sorry... there's a good reason.
[17:53] Eiko
    I bet there is. I'd really
    let you have it, otherwise.
[17:58] Eiko
    So?
[17:59] Kyoya
    Well...
[18:04] Eiko
    I see. That is rough.
[18:06] Kyoya
    Could you keep it quiet, though?
[18:09] Kyoya
    It's not the kind of thing you
    want to spread around.
[18:11] Eiko
    Of course.
[18:13] Eiko
    So? What can I do to help?
[18:16] Eiko
    That's what you need, right?
[18:18] Eiko
    If there's anything I can contribute,
     just let me know.
[18:21] Kyoya
    Thanks! I really appreciate it!
[18:24] Kyoya
    The first thing that comes to mind...
[18:26] Kyoya
    There are issues with the
    script and art direction...
[18:28] Kyoya
    There's also the progress on the opening...
[18:30] Eiko
    Okay, I'm catching a bus.
[18:33] Kyoya
    Yeah. Thanks for offering your advice.
[18:36] Kyoya
    See you around.
[18:41] Eiko
    Hashiba...
[18:43] Eiko
    You're a competent worker,
    and you're smart enough,
[18:47] Eiko
    but it seems to me like
    you might be overdoing it.
[18:50] Eiko
    Are you... really okay?
[18:54] Kyoya
    Yeah. It's not a problem.
[18:56] Eiko
    Okay... if you say so.
[19:14] Roku
    All right...
[19:15] Roku
    Kyoya, check this section for me.
[19:17] Kyoya
    Okay.
[19:23] Kyoya
    I think the writing might
    be a little stiff, still.
[19:25] Roku
    Still? I thought I had fixed that,
     for the most part.
[19:28] Kyoya
    Considering the genre,
    it needs to be a bit more loose.
[19:31] Kyoya
    I also think there might be too
    much narration, relatively speaking.
[19:34] Kyoya
    I'd like you to increase
    the amount of dialogue.
[19:36] Roku
    Seriously?!
[19:37] Roku
    But... if you say so. I'll get on that, then.
[19:41] Kyoya
    Sorry. I appreciate it.
[19:43] Nanako
    Dinner's ready!
[19:45] Kyoya
    Coming!
[19:48] Kyoya
    Tsurayuki?
[19:49] Roku
    Sorry. I'll be along in a sec.

[20:16] Shino
    Y'know, the other day,
    I saw the strangest-looking folks.
[20:20] Kyoya
    You did?
[20:21] Shino
    It was over in the school parking lot.
[20:23] Shino
    This big old black car pulls up,
    and out comes a big fella in a black suit,
[20:29] Shino
    and this cute gal in a fur coat!
[20:33] Shino
    I wonder if they're students.
[20:36] Nanako
    What the heck? Sounds like a yakuza princess.
[20:40] Kyoya
    Now that you mention it, I think
    I might've seen the same people.
[20:45] Roku
    Shinoaki... was this girl
    wearing a white beret?
[20:49] Shino
    Yeah, she was.
[20:52] Roku
    W-With short hair?
[20:54] Roku
    And a sorta, general vibe
    of being a rich girl?
[20:56] Roku
    Did you notice that?!
[21:07] Kyoya
    H-Hey, Tsurayuki, what's gotten into...
[21:09] Roku
    Guys, sorry, but I need
    to make myself scarce for today!
[21:12] Kyoya
    Wait, why?!
[21:14] Roku
    I'll explain when I get back!
[21:21] Sayuri
    I knew this was the place!
[21:24] Shino
    It's her!
[21:25] Roku
    S-Sayuri-nee...
[21:27] Sayuri
    Tsu-kun! It's been ages!
[21:29] Sayuri
    I missed you so much!
[21:31] Roku
    G-Get off! Seriously, Sayuri-nee, let me go!
[21:34] Sayuri
    Why, though?
[21:36] Sayuri
    Shouldn't we smooch now,
    to celebrate our reunion?
[21:40] Sayuri
    Come on, Tsu-kun!
[21:43] Roku
    Hang on a...
[21:48] Sayuri
    It's a pleasure to meet you all.
    My name is Jisshoji Sayuri.
[21:53] Sayuri
    I am Rokuonji Tsurayuki-san's...
[21:56] Sayuri
    Fiancée!
[21:58] Kyoya
    F... F... F...
[22:00] Everyone
    Fiancée?!
