[00:02] Sunraku
    Shangri-La Frontier...
[00:03] Sunraku
    SLF for short.
[00:05] Sunraku
    A god-tier game with over
    30 million registered users.
[00:08] Sunraku
    Trash game hunter Sunraku—a.k.a I,
    Rakuro Hizutome, am taking it on!
[00:13] Pencilgon
    What kind of wannabe-main-character
    narration is that?
[00:15] Sunraku
    Nothing wannabe about it!
    I
am the main character!
[00:17] Sunraku
    I'm here to look back on
    the story so far in
SLF
,
[00:20] Sunraku
    and highlight my personal god-like playing!
[00:23] Katzo
    Oh? Don't you mean trash-like playing?
[00:26] Sunraku
    Katzo, you're here, too?!
[00:28] Sunraku
    The only narrator they need
    for this recap episode is me!
[00:32] Katzo
    C'mon, Sunraku.
[00:33] Katzo
    There's more to MCing than
    parroting a bunch of buzzwords.
[00:37] Sunraku
    I'm not a damned parrot!
[00:38] Emul
    Let us all enjoy this trip
    down memory lane together!
[00:41] Sunraku
    What, Emul's here, too?
[00:43] Emul
    I am your attendant, after all, Sunraku-san!
[00:46] Emul
    Now, everyone, I brought nice
    mana recovery potions for all!
[00:50] Katzo
    Yay.
[00:52] Sunraku
    Hey, Katzo!
[00:52] Sunraku
    I know you obsessively watch
    every episode in secret.
[00:55] Sunraku
    You don't need a recap, so get lost!
[00:57] Katzo
    Dunno what you mean!
[00:59] Katzo
    Why would a pro gamer watch
    some trash gamer's anime?
[01:03] Pencilgon
    You know, your whole stooges act has
    taken us almost through the opening.
[01:07] Pencilgon
    We put this bonus episode together special
[01:09] Pencilgon
    with the big battle against Wethermon
    the Tombguard coming up next week.
[01:13] Pencilgon
    Maybe you want to make a less
    stupid first impression?
[01:16] Sunraku
    Oh, crap. Let's do the title call, guys!
[01:19] Katzo
    Yeah!
[01:19] Pencilgon
    Got it.
[01:19] Emul
    Righty-o!
[01:20] Sunraku
    Shangri-La Frontier special bonus episode...
[01:22] Katzo
    Get yourselves caught up...
SIGN    Special Bonus Episode
    Get yourselves caught up with this light-speed recap!
[01:24] Pencilgon
    ...with this light-speed recap!
[01:25] Emul
    It all begins now!!
[01:26] Emul
    Yes, indeed!
[01:31] Katzo
    In an age where display-based
    games are considered retro,
[01:34] Katzo
    and fully immersive VR games
    have become the norm...
[01:38] Katzo
    Beneath the small number
    of works of significance
[01:40] Katzo
    lies a massive pile of releases
[01:42] Katzo
    whose game designs don't live up
    to their improved graphics technology.
SIGN    Not Trash Games
SIGN    Semi-Redeemable Trash Games
SIGN    Never Play Again
[01:47] Katzo
    They are known as "trash games."
[01:51] Katzo
    Although most people
    rightfully despise trash games,
[01:55] Katzo
    there are those who gleefully seek them out.
[01:58] Katzo
    We call these people "freaks."
[02:02] Sunraku
    Who the hell are you calling a freak?!
SIGN    Rakuro Hizutome
SIGN    High School 2nd-Year
[02:03] Sunraku
    Besides, I met you assholes
    in those trash games!
[02:05] Sunraku
    And why're you talking that way?
SIGN    Summer Break Promotion!!
    Now Adding Servers!
[02:07] Pencilgon
    But there's a game that even
    those freaks can enjoy.
[02:10] Pencilgon
    Its name...
[02:11] Sunraku
    Seriously, why're you talking that way?
[02:14] Sunraku
    Its name...
SLF
, for short!
SIGN    Create New Character
[02:22] Sunraku
    From the start, this god-tier game
SIGN    Mercenary
    (Twin Swords)
[02:24] Sunraku
    had offered more build options
    than my usual trash game!

[02:39] Sunraku
    Don't cut out the reason for my choices!
SIGN    Link established.
    Please lie down in a safe place.
[02:41] Emul
    Oh? Is something the matter?
[02:43] Emul
    You look like the Sunraku-san
    I know very well!
[02:45] Sunraku
    W-Well...
[02:51] Sunraku
    Pioneer Sunraku joins the god-tier game fray!
[02:55] Pencilgon
    You sure you should try to sound
    cool in that deviant getup of yours?
[02:59] Sunraku
    There, I found a world far vaster than the
    many, many games I'd played previously!
[03:07] Pencilgon
    Probably because they were all trash games?
[03:10] Sunraku
    Look... could you shut up a minute?
[03:13] Katzo
    Hey, Sunraku, you got Vorpal
    Choppers that early?
SIGN    Vorpal Chopper
    Bonus to critical damage.
SIGN    Secondale
SIGN    Sunraku
[03:17] Emul
    Impressive as ever, Sunraku-san!
[03:19] Emul
    Your vorpal soul was blazing
    from the very start!
[03:22] Sunraku
    Without my trusty Vorpal Choppers,
[03:24] Sunraku
    I'd have surely died before reaching
    the starter town, Secondale.
[03:29] Katzo
    The starter town is
Firstia
.
[03:32] Katzo
    You skipped it for no reason, remember?
[03:33] Sunraku
    There's no city by that name on my map.
[03:37] Sunraku
    Screw Pierce!
[03:46] Sunraku
    Heck yeah!
[03:48] Sunraku
    I freaking did it!
SIGN    Dropped Item
    Python Scale
SIGN    Dropped Item
    Python White Hair
[03:50] Sunraku
    I bet these dropped items
    could fetch some major dough!
SIGN    Sunraku
SIGN    Poison
[03:56] Sunraku
    Oh, crap! I'm still running out of time!
[04:00] Sunraku
    The minute I get to town,
    I'll buy an antidote...
[04:03] Sunraku
    Wait, I dunno where the shops are!
    I won't make it!
[04:05] Sunraku
    I'd better register my respawn point first!
[04:08] Sunraku
    That'd be an inn, right?
[04:10] Sunraku
    But I don't know where
    that is either, damn it!
SIGN    Inn
[04:19] Sunraku
    Heck yeah!
[04:23] Sunraku
    Heck yeah!
SIGN    Respawn point registered.
SIGN    Sunraku
SIGN    Poison
[04:25] Sunraku
    I made i—
SIGN    Death Penalty
SIGN    All stats temporarily reduced.
[04:29] Pencilgon/Katzo
    Someone's having fun!
[04:32] Sunraku
    Yes... I hate to say it, but I was
    getting pretty into the thing.
[04:35] Sunraku
    I'd underestimated that god-tier game!
[04:37] Sunraku
    Forgive me!
[04:39] Sunraku
    But... that was just a little intro.
[04:43] Sunraku
    It was my encounter with a certain someone
    that gave me a taste of the true* SLF*.
[04:55] Katzo
    The unique monster...
    Lycagon the Nightslayer.
[04:58] Emul
    The Night Emperor!
[05:00] Emul
    The colossus who appears
    out of nowhere at night,
[05:02] Emul
    and gobbles up wyverns like a midnight snack!
[05:06] Emul
    How truly terrifying it is!
[05:08] Pencilgon
    Seven unique monsters known
    as the Seven Colossi—
[05:12] Pencilgon
    Once defeated, they never revive,
SIGN    Vorpal Choppers
    Equipped
[05:16] Pencilgon
    and nobody's even defeated one yet.
SIGN    Slide Step
    Bonus to user's evasion.
[05:20] Sunraku
    Which means you gotta beat
    'em before anyone else does!
[05:30] Sunraku
    This spine-tingling intensity that
    makes me feel like I'm on fire...

[05:36] Sunraku
    It's not possible to enjoy
    a game more than this!

[05:40] Sunraku
    Bugs! Garbage balance! Absurd spawn rates!
[05:43] Sunraku
    I'm a gamer who's made it
    through all those trash games!

[05:50] Sunraku
    And since I know you don't
    have a bugged-out hitbox...
[05:53] Sunraku
    There's no way in hell I'm
    gonna throw in the towel!

[05:58] Pencilgon
    Still, seeing you keep up with Lycagon
    after just starting the game...
[06:03] Pencilgon
    That's the Sunraku-kun I know.
[06:05] Pencilgon
    Still a total freak!
[06:06] Sunraku
    I'd prefer "extremely competent,
[06:08] Sunraku
    thanks to building up skills in
    unreasonable trash games," thank you.
[06:10] Katzo
    But man, this thing seems strong!
[06:14] Katzo
    So that's the scale unique
    monsters like Wethermon are on?
[06:17] Sunraku
    At the time, I didn't even
    know about the Seven Colossi.
[06:22] Sunraku
    But having met that thing, I'd found a
    clear objective in my
SLF playthrough.
SIGN    Sunraku
[06:32] Sunraku
    I've made up my mind.
[06:34] Sunraku
    I don't give a damn about
    the final boss or the story.
[06:37] Sunraku
    It might not be now, but someday...
[06:40] Sunraku
    I'm gonna beat you, for sure.
[06:44] Sunraku
    You better not let anyone
    beat you before then...
[06:47] Sunraku
    Lycagon the Nightslayer!
SIGN    Lycagon's Mark (Curse)
    Applied
SIGN    Respawn
    Secondale Inn
[07:00] Sunraku
    The next thing I knew, I'd been
    cursed with Lycagon's Mark.
[07:07] Sunraku
    "Equipment cannot be equipped to the body
    part afflicted with Lycagon's Mark."
[07:11] Sunraku
    "Monsters of lower level than the
    afflicted character will flee."
[07:15] Sunraku
    "Conversations with NPCs will be affected
    by the presence of Lycagon's Mark."
[07:17] Sunraku
    "The afflicted body part gains
    resistance to magic effects."
[07:23] Sunraku
    "The curse can be removed
    through the prayers of a Saint
[07:26] Sunraku
    or the defeat of the curse's caster"...
[07:29] Sunraku
    Yeah, I mean... I've been through
    enough hell already, right?
[07:34] Sunraku
    It's okay to turn to luck for help, right?!
[07:40] Sunraku
    And that's when luck hit me!
[07:42] Emul
    Righty-o!
[07:43] Sunraku
    A super-duper-uber rare unique scenario!
[07:46] Katzo
    Lucky dog. Lucky dog!
SIGN    Palace of
    Rabituza
[07:48] Emul
    Sunraku-san was the first-ever human
    I brought to the Palace of Rabituza!
[07:53] Emul
    He bravely challenged the Nightslayer alone,
[07:56] Emul
    was acknowledged as a worthy opponent,
[07:58] Emul
    and cursed in the process,
    confirming the strength of his vorpal soul!
[08:02] Emul
    This is why Dadd—
[08:03] Emul
    er, why the boss permitted him an audience!
[08:07] Pencilgon
    And that's when Vysache gave
    you the Vorpal Soul Collar?
SIGN    Vorpal Soul Collar
    acquired.
[08:12] Katzo
    When equipped, it halves the
    experience points you accrue...
[08:15] sign
    While equipped, user receives half EXP
    but gains 2.5x stat points
    (rounded down) when leveling.
[08:16] Sunraku
    ...in exchange for a 2.5x modifier on
    stat points received when you level up.
[08:21] Emul
    It's proof that the boss
    accepted you as an underling!
[08:25] Vysache
    Extraordinary hardship is necessary
    for the weak to grow stronger.
[08:30] Vysache
    Never forget the vorpal soul.
[08:34] Emul
    It suits you very well, Sunraku-san!
[08:36] Sunraku
    But it wasn't long before all the
    other players found out about Emul!
[08:42] Emul
    Why did that happen?
[08:43] Sunraku
    Because you're a damned chatterbox!
[08:45] Emul
    Oh, dear...
[08:46] Pencilgon
    That's right! And that's what
    enabled me to see you again!
SIGN     Advanced Players Teach Beginners the Ropes #81
    
    74: Add (Advanced)
    Seriously, to unlock the elite jobs you've got to at least make it to Sixburg.
    How many times do I have to tell people this?
    Maybe we should put it on the FAQ.
    
    75: Alinoiyu (Beginner)
    I have a question for our esteemed elders. I was picking up equipment
    in Secondale when I ran into this player. He had the cutest talking bunny
    with him. How can I befriend this monster?
[08:51] Katzo
    That's kinda scary.
SIGN    Thirdrema
[08:54] Sunraku
    That's right. The moment Emul
    and I arrived in Thirdrema...
[08:58] Sunraku
    This max-level jackass attacked me!
[09:01] Pencilgon
    What? Did you call me a goddess?!
[09:03] Pencilgon
    Shucks, I'm blushing!
[09:06] Pencilgon
    But it's important to check these
    things in case they've changed.
[09:08] Katzo
    Maybe see a doctor?
[09:09] Sunraku
    Me and Katzo originally met Pencilgon in
    a certain trash game as enemies, but...
SIGN    Item Shop
SIGN    Katzo Tataki
SIGN    Sunraku
[09:15] Pencilgon
    But now we're proud game companions, right?!
[09:19] Sunraku
    Yeah, let's go with that.
[09:21] Sunraku
    But here in
SLF*,
[09:23] Sunraku
    you were second-in-command of the
    player killer clan, the Ashura Kai,
[09:26] Sunraku
    and you'd come to steal
    info on my unique scenario.
[09:30] Sunraku
    Four PKers.
[09:32] Sunraku
    Bring it on!
[09:34] Sunraku
    I mean, you've only got me beat
    in level, equipment, and stats!
[09:37] Pencilgon
    And right as I almost had you,
[09:40] Pencilgon
    for some reason, the Attack Master,
    Psyger-0 ended up joining the brawl.
[09:44] Pencilgon
    Sunraku-kun, are you two
    in-game friends or something?
[09:46] Sunraku
    No, we were total strangers at the time...
[09:52] Sunraku
    But that handy run-in let me
    escape Pencilgon's wicked trap!
[09:56] Sunraku
    Thanks a bunch, Psyger-0!
[09:58] Emul
    You truly were our salvation!
[10:01] Sunraku
    That's when I
[10:03] Sunraku
    started up the unique scenario I'd
    unlocked, "Invitation from Rabituza."
[10:04] sign
    Spiral Edge
[10:07] Sunraku
    I had to beat ten high-level
    monsters each in a row.
SIGN    Practical Training Opponent 3
    Goblin Berserker
SIGN    Defeated on
    2nd try
SIGN    Practical Training Opponent 4
    Dinoboar
SIGN    Defeated on
    1st try
SIGN    Practical Training Opponent 5
    Toxic Eagle
SIGN    Defeated on
    112th try
SIGN    Practical Training Opponent 9
    Beta Unit Golem S2
[10:10] sign
    Defeated on
    7th try
[10:10] Sunraku
    It was a perfect level-up plan!
[10:14] Emul
    Sunraku-san! You should
    probably take a break!
SIGN    Menacing
[10:18] Emul
    You have a great and
    terrible look in your eyes!
[10:21] Sunraku
    And the reward for all my mental
    and physical tribulation was...
SIGN    Title
SIGN    Honorary Rabituzan
SIGN    acquired.
[10:27] Emul
    Simply spectacular, Sunraku-san!
[10:28] Emul
    Yay! Yay!
[10:31] Pencilgon
    I see.
[10:33] Pencilgon
    The play skills you've acquired
    through all those trash games
[10:37] Pencilgon
    let you excel very quickly here in* SLF*.
[10:42] Pencilgon
    And then you inspired the pro gamer,
    Katzo-kun, to join up, as well.
SIGN    Oikatzo
SIGN    Let's get up to some mischief!
    
    From: Pencil Knight
     To: Modor Katzo
[10:49] Pencilgon
    The time had come to make a decision.
[10:52] Pencilgon
    I called the two of them
    to meet me in* Unite Rounds*,
[10:55] Pencilgon
    the trash game we'd once fought in.
[10:58] Pencilgon
    My decision—a little project
    for just the three of us.
SIGN    Pencil Knight
[11:02] Emul
    And what was that great project?!
[11:05] Emul
    Stay tuned until after the commercial to see!
[11:14] Pencil Knight
    Hello, hello!
[11:16] Pencil Knight
    Thank you both for coming today.
SIGN    Pencil Knight
[11:18] Pencil Knight
    When was the last time we were all
    together here in Unite Rounds?
[11:24] Pencil Knight
    Was it when you jackasses stormed my castle,
    which had an eighty-player garrison?
[11:31] Katzo Tataki
    Look, that was Sunraku's idea.
SIGN    Sunraku
SIGN    Pencil Knight
SIGN    Katzo Tataki
[11:34] Katzo Tataki
    "Assassinating the monarch
    sounds like a blast!" he said.
[11:37] Sunraku
    You were just as down for it!
[11:40] Katzo Tataki
    Hell yeah, I was.
[11:41] Katzo Tataki
    And it freaking ruled!
[11:43] Sunraku
    Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to end with her
[11:46] Sunraku
    blowing up the castle and
    all her retainers with it!
[11:50] Katzo Tataki
    Yeah, the Pencil Dynasty Incident.
[11:53] Katzo Tataki
    They'll be talking about that one 'til
    the Unite Rounds servers shut down!
[11:57] Sunraku
    Yeah.
[11:58] Sunraku
    And she acts like it was just part
    of her "live in the moment" attitude,
[12:02] Sunraku
    but you can tell she's
    still so pissed about it!
[12:04] Sunraku
    She'll start making excuses even
    when no one's brought it up—
[12:09] Pencil Knight
    Now that we're all feeling nice and relaxed,
[12:13] Pencil Knight
    do you mind if I get to the main topic?
[12:15] Both
    Yes, ma'am!
[12:16] Pencil Knight
    We don't have a lot of time,
[12:18] Pencil Knight
    so I'll get right to the point.
[12:22] Pencil Knight
    Want to take out the unique monster,
    Wethermon the Tombguard,
[12:26] Pencil Knight
    with just the three of us?
SIGN    Pencil Knight
[12:35] Both
    Huh?! A unique monster?!
SIGN    The Seven Colossi
[12:39] Sunraku
    One of the Seven Colossi—Wethermon
    the Tombguard.
[12:44] Sunraku
    I'd never heard of him before,
[12:46] Sunraku
    but I had no doubt he was
    just as tough as Lycagon.
[12:51] Sunraku
    Katzo and I agreed to join her little plan.
[12:57] Vysache
    I don't think I need to tell you
[12:59] Vysache
    how weak you still are.
[13:04] Sunraku
    This friend of mine says a
    group of PKers—rather...
[13:08] Sunraku
    a no-good band of killers is exploiting
    Wethermon to make themselves stronger.
[13:12] Sunraku
    They're using him as a tool.
[13:18] Sunraku
    The mastermind of our upcoming raid
    is technically part of that band,
[13:22] Sunraku
    but she truly wants to defeat
    Wethermon the Tombguard.
[13:27] Sunraku
    She's gone to unthinkable lengths to do it.
[13:30] Vysache
    No matter what lengths you go to,
[13:32] Vysache
    if there's no chance of victory,
    it's still a reckless move.
[13:37] Vysache
    When did I say "vorpal soul" meant walking
    straight into the mouth of death?
[13:44] Sunraku
    Not one of us would go into a
    fight with the intention to lose.
[13:50] Sunraku
    "We only get one chance at this."
[13:52] Sunraku
    "Win or lose, this is our last shot."
[13:55] Sunraku
    Those are the words my friend
    came to me with, and so...
[13:59] Sunraku
    I feel honor-bound to offer my aid.
[14:10] Vysache
    Honor-bound, eh?
[14:14] Vysache
    He's an awkward one, you see.
[14:18] Sunraku
    He's talking about Wethermon?
[14:20] Vysache
    Serious to a fault,
    never knows when to let up...
[14:24] Vysache
    He lost his wife to a lousy little lie,
[14:28] Vysache
    and ended up with that undying body of his.
[14:34] Vysache
    He's a living corpse,
    unable to even put himself to rest.
[14:39] Vysache
    And so...
[14:42] Vysache
    Someone has to take him down and
    bring him that well-earned slumber.
[14:50] Emul
    The boss was so moved by
    Sunraku-san's passion,
[14:52] Emul
    that he agreed to ascend
    Sunraku-san's Vorpal Choppers!
[14:56] Emul
    It was super-turbo-hyper-awesomely
    invigorating!
[14:59] Emul
    What a pity that time limitations prevent
    us from showing you the entirety of it!
[15:03] Emul
    Make sure to rewatch episode 11 right away!
[15:07] Sunraku
    Emul-san... that is,
    perhaps, a bit overboard.
[15:10] Vysache
    The Vorpal Chopper has taken
    its true name and form.
[15:15] Vysache
    Its name...
[15:17] Vysache
    Moonblade (Waxing)
    and Moonblade (Waning).
SIGN    Moonblade (Waxing)
    A twinblade with a crescent-shaped blade.
SIGN    Moonblade (Waning)
    A twinblade with a crescent-shaped blade.
[15:21] Sunraku
    A twin weapon?!
[15:23] Vysache
    One blade in the form of two.
[15:25] Vysache
    Each needs the other to have meaning.
[15:32] Sunraku
    Let's equip these babies
    and give 'em a whirl!
SIGN    Cannot be wielded due to
    failure to meet stat requirements.
[15:37] Sunraku
    I need to be level 50 to use 'em?!
[15:40] Vysache
    Well, guess you need to toughen
    up a bit more to use 'em.
[15:52] Sunraku
    We'd only get one chance at that duel—
[15:54] Sunraku
    The night of the new moon when
    the major update takes place!
[15:57] Sunraku
    We had to get our levels
    to at least 50 by then!
SIGN    Tearlight Lake
[16:01] Katzo
    So we got to grinding levels, but...
[16:05] Katzo
    That's when I realized our wee li'l
    Sunraku-kun had made a big boo-boo!
[16:09] Sunraku
    Wait... what?!
[16:10] Emul
    Regarding the combination of skills!
[16:19] Sunraku
    Combine?
SIGN    Combine...
[16:20] Oikatzo
    Remember the tutorial in Firstia,
    the starting town?!
[16:24] Sunraku
    Firstia? Never went.
SIGN    Fighter-type Skill
    Power Direct Lv. 5
SIGN    Critical-enhancement Skill
    Critical Assist Lv. 3
[16:29] Oikatzo
    Skills with proficiency
    levels can be linked up
[16:31] Oikatzo
    at a facility called the Skill Garden.
SIGN    Link
[16:35] Oikatzo
    That lets you create new "combo skills"!
SIGN    Chance of KO effect
    on critical hit
    Knockout
[16:41] Emul
    Sunraku-san! Are you all right?
[16:44] Oikatzo
    Don't tell me... you don't even
    know about sub-jobs and guilds?
SIGN    Sub-jobs
SIGN    Guilds
[16:50] Sunraku
    How much did I miss by
    skipping one little town?!
[16:53] Emul
    
SIGN    Oikatzo
SIGN    Sunraku
[16:59] Pencilgon
    That's a lot of progress
    in pretty a short time.
[17:02] Pencilgon
    You could even afford to slow down a bit...
[17:05] Pencilgon
    What got into you?
[17:06] Oikatzo
    Actually, turns out Sunraku
    skipped the tutori—
[17:11] Oikatzo
    Fine, fine. I won't tell her.
[17:15] Sunraku
    That night, we visited a time-restricted
    hidden area in the Prismatic Forest Grotto
[17:23] Sunraku
    that Pencilgon had stumbled
    on a while back by accident.
[17:27] Pencilgon
    Hey, Set-chan!
[17:28] Pencilgon
    It's been a whole month.
[17:30] Setsuna
    Oh, Arthur. It's been a while.
SIGN    Setsuna of Bygone Days
[17:35] Pencilgon
    In order to fight Wethermon the Tombguard,
    we first had to speak with her.
[17:42] Setsuna
    He... Wethermon was my dearest love.
[17:46] Setsuna
    We had a minor misunderstanding,
    and I died, and...
[17:50] Setsuna
    He's spent all the time since...
[17:53] Setsuna
    All the time since... guarding my grave.
[17:56] Sunraku
    Your grave?
[17:58] Oikatzo
    Hence "Tombguard," eh?
[18:00] Setsuna
    I don't know how much time
    has passed since my death,
[18:05] Setsuna
    but the next thing I knew,
    I was in this state.
[18:13] Setsuna
    I can't stand knowing that he
    remains tied down by my past.
[18:19] Setsuna
    He used a program—
[18:22] Setsuna
    a spell that I wrote,
    to create a barrier here.
[18:26] Sunraku
    She used a kind of anachronistic
    word just now...
[18:31] Setsuna
    By using the mana that
    dwells within moonlight
[18:33] Setsuna
    and inverting the coordinates to
    the underside of the dimension
[18:36] Setsuna
    he's made it impossible for
    anyone to reach that location.
[18:40] Setsuna
    But on the night of a new moon...
    when the moon loses all its light...
[18:44] Setsuna
    A crack forms
[18:45] Setsuna
    in the barrier preventing access to the
    underside coordinates where he waits.
[18:49] Oikatzo
    So we gotta jump through
    the crack and fight him?
[18:52] Setsuna
    Please put Wethermon...
[18:54] Setsuna
    Please put my love to rest.
[19:03] Pencilgon
    Leave it to us, Set-chan.
[19:05] Pencilgon
    We're not like the bunglers
    who've tried it in the past.
[19:08] Pencilgon
    If that jerk is making you suffer,
[19:10] Pencilgon
    we'll put him six feet under!
[19:15] Sunraku
    Did you hear that?
[19:16] Oikatzo
    Is that the Pencilgon we know?
[19:18] Sunraku
    The one who, in Unite Rounds,
    dragged an NPC king along behind her carriage
[19:22] Sunraku
    to try to lure in enemies!
[19:25] (Flashback) Pencil Knight
    Yahoo!
[19:27] Oikatzo
    The Pencil Knight who tied an
    NPC princess to the chandelier
[19:31] Oikatzo
    to bait players into trying to rescue her!
[19:36] Sunraku
    She's having a pleasant chat with an NPC?!
[19:38] Sunraku
    Has she regained some
    sliver of her humanity?!
[19:41] Oikatzo
    What is... this feeling? Is this... a soul?
[19:54] Pencilgon
    Look, sometimes even I like to
    play it straight with an NPC.
[19:59] Pencilgon
    With her name being Setsuna, and her
    backstory... it just got me invested.
[20:07] Pencilgon
    Okay, look, fine!
[20:09] Pencilgon
    I can get emotionally invested in
    a game now and then, too, okay?!
[20:14] Sunraku
    Hey, that's fine by me.
[20:17] Sunraku
    Getting serious about a
    game is a great thing.
[20:21] Sunraku
    Everything's more fun when
    you take it dead serious!
[20:25] Oikatzo
    That's right!
[20:26] Oikatzo
    Taking your playtime seriously
    is what makes it fun.
[20:29] Oikatzo
    Of course, that's also the
    job for a pro gamer like me.
[20:34] Sunraku
    Wait. You're a pro,
     you're taking the game seriously,
[20:36] Sunraku
    and you haven't even found a single
    unique thing for yourself?!
[20:40] Oikatzo
    Okay, now you've done it!
[20:42] Oikatzo
    I'm gonna tear those feathers off your head
[20:43] Oikatzo
    and give you a head covered in goosebumps!
[20:45] Sunraku
    Katzo, stop! One more hit and I'm dead!
[20:48] Emul
    Please, cease your fighting at once!
[20:52] Emul
    Stop it!
[20:56] Pencilgon
    Oh, right, I forgot!
[20:59] Pencilgon
    You guys are as stupid as I am!
[21:10] Pencilgon
    We're facing a unique monster which
    forces a 150 level handicap—
[21:13] Pencilgon
    something unprecedented
    in boss battle history—
[21:18] Pencilgon
    Wethermon the Tombguard.
[21:20] Pencilgon
    But I know we can do this!
[21:23] Pencilgon
    Let's take this seriously and win!
[21:25] Both
    Right!
[21:41] Sunraku
    Next episode starts the
    fight against Wethermon!
[21:44] Sunraku
    Build up that hype, everyone!
[21:46] Psyger-0
    Is this where we're meeting
    for the... recap episode?
[21:51] Sunraku
    P-Psyger-0?!
[21:52] Psyger-0
    A-As Sunraku-san's in-game friend,
[21:55] Psyger-0
    I th-thought I should help w-with the recap...
[21:58] Emul
    I fear we've already reached the ending!
[22:00] Psyger-0
    D-Did you have anything
    on my various exploits,
[22:05] Psyger-0
    o-or the show's... love interest?
[22:08] Katzo
    Love interest? We got one of those?
[22:10] Rei
    I thought I'd get a chance to
    speak with Hizutome-kun at last...
[22:14] Rei
    But next week is the major update!
[22:17] Rei
    Will it be a chance for
    us to explore together?!
[22:20] Psyger-0
    S-Sunraku-san... next week,
    would you like to—
[22:23] Pencilgon
    Okay, next time starts the big battle
    with Wethermon the Tombguard!
[22:28] Emul
    Look forward to it, yes indeed!
[22:28] Katzo
    Look forward to it!
[22:29] Psyger-0
    W-Wait!
[22:31] Sunraku
    You idiots! Let the main
    character have the last word!
SIGN    Next time: Episode 15
[22:38] Pencilgon
    All right. Let's begin.
[22:42] Psyger-100
    The Ashura Kai meets its end this night.
[22:46] Psyger-100
    Suffer the fate that awaits all evildoers!

    Setsuna. I will...
[22:56] Pencilgon
    No, we will make your wish come true.
