[00:16] Narration
    Here in 1-Chome Giroppon stands TV Nanana,
[00:21] N
    a tiny TV station struggling to produce
    programming with a modest budget.
[00:22] Sign
    Narration: Sugimoto Tetta
[00:28] N
    They suddenly receive
    some mysterious visitors,
[00:33] N
    their vehicles emblazoned
    with the word "nanazon."
[00:36] N
    Aboard is the executive team that runs
[00:38] N
    the major video streaming
    service, Nanazon Prime Video.

[00:41] N
    What has brought them
    to this tiny TV station?
[00:46] Exec
    Watch anything, for a price!
[00:48] Exec
    I'm Nanazon!
[00:51] N
    It turns out that last week,
    TV Nanana was bought out by Nanazon.
SIGN    Buyout
[00:57] N
    And they're wasting no time in
    making major changes to TV Nanana.
[01:01] Exec
    I'm gonna take this two-bit TV
    station and make it a winner!
[01:06] Exec
    If you can't bring in the right kinda
    numbers, you're getting laid off!
[01:11] N
    Layoffs. The idea alone had
    the staff trembling in fear.
[01:17] N
    Particularly sensitive to this threat
    was the producer, Nanaguchi-san.
SIGN    Expedition Crew
[01:21] N
    He's the middle manager in
    charge of the expedition crew.
[01:25] Nanaguchi
    They showed up faster than I expected...
SIGN    Producer Nanaguchi
[01:28] Nanaoka
    What's going on? Who even is that?
[01:29] Nanaguchi
    It's Perry and the Black Ships.
[01:32] Nanaguchi
    I need you to grab those papers
    and organize them, fast!
[01:35] N
    The expedition crew is a team that creates
    programming featuring expeditions.

SIGN    Expedition Crew's Ratings
[01:39] N
    One time, they managed to
    capture footage of a rare animal,
SIGN    "On the trail of exotic beasts!"
[01:42] N
    but beyond that, they haven't produced
    anything all that entertaining.
[01:46] N
    If management were to find out,
    they'd be on incredibly thin ice... ah.

SIGN    Frugality + First
[01:50] Exec
    Hey, hey, hey! What group is
    getting these sorry ratings?
[01:55] Exec
    I'm gonna shut them down right away!
[01:58] Exec
    Expedition crew!
[01:59] N
    Looks like he's already found out.
[02:00] Exec
    Expedition crew!
[02:01] N
    Nanaguchi-san is in extremely hot water now.
[02:04] Exec
    Show me where these wage thieves who
    call themselves the expedition crew are!
[02:07] Exec
    Hey, you!
[02:08] Exec
    Hey, you, shut up!
SIGN    Expedition Crew
[02:12] Nanaguchi
    If he finds us, we're all gonna be laid off.
[02:15] Exec
    Goddamn!
[02:15] Nanaoka
    That's bad!
[02:16] Nanayama
    I don't have any money.
[02:17] Nanaoka
    My house isn't paid off yet.
[02:19] Nanamori
    I just put my kid in cram school...
[02:21] Nanaoka
    I got the expensive insurance, too.
[02:24] Nanaguchi
    Should we send out a sacrifice?
[02:27] Nanaguchi
    If you wanna get laid off, raise your hand!
[02:30] Nanaoka
    Nanayama!
[02:31] Nanayama
    Why me?!
[02:32] Nanaoka
    You've got a laid-off kinda face.
[02:34] Nanayama
    A laid-off... face?
[02:35] Nanamori
    Yeah, man, yeah! Laid-off face!
[02:35] Nanaoka
    Get out there!
[02:37] Nanayama
    I'm amazed we managed to get this far...
[02:40] N
    Buy-outs and layoffs.
[02:42] N
    Will this tiny TV station be able
    to survive this perilous experience?
[02:47] N
    This marks a new challenge for
    TV Nanana's expedition crew.
