1. Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
2. Please come back to Alcohol Soft!
Copy !req
3. Everyone wants you back, Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
4. I'm not going back.
Copy !req
5. Is this... voice synthesis?
Copy !req
6. You don't understand the consequences
that Windows will have.
Copy !req
7. The PC-98 carries on a rich, long legacy.
Copy !req
8. I-It's so hard to make out...
Copy !req
9. Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
10. I'm telling you to scram!
Copy !req
11. D-Does that mean you're okay with
the game not being finished?
Copy !req
12. If a staff boycott ends up
pushing back the release date,
Copy !req
13. the round-up blogs are
going to eat you alive!
Copy !req
14. Stop spouting nonsense!
Copy !req
15. I don't know how long
I have until I go back!
Copy !req
16. I still don't get how this
time travel stuff works!
Copy !req
17. So I want to hurry up and make games—
Copy !req
18. Seriously!
Copy !req
19. Stop talking about time travel
in such a loud voice!
Copy !req
20. But, but...
Copy !req
21. Didn't I tell you?
Copy !req
22. Stop trying to change history!
Copy !req
23. Grr...
Copy !req
24. He's got some nerve for someone who used
to be younger than me not too long ago!
Copy !req
25. Everyone just ignores what I have to say!
Copy !req
26. History's not going to change!
Copy !req
27. Okay, have it your way!
Copy !req
28. I'll be back, and fully armored this time!
Copy !req
29. Just you wait!
Copy !req
30. 16bit Sensation:
Another Layer
Copy !req
31. 16bit Sensation:
Another Layer
Copy !req
32. This music sounds so clear!
Copy !req
33. Did they record the MIDIs
into CD-DA for this?
Copy !req
34. It sounds a lot nicer than
the PC-98 version I played!
Copy !req
35. It looks like they had no problems
porting Shizuku to Windows.
Copy !req
36. After Kizuato,
Copy !req
37. I think Leaf's next game will be
exclusive to Windows for sure.
Copy !req
38. Alicesoft as well.
Copy !req
39. We've all been turning a blind eye to it,
Copy !req
40. but we need to move on to Windows too.
Copy !req
41. If we want to survive, that is.
Copy !req
42. Kao-san, do you think Mamoru-kun
is going to return?
Copy !req
43. That's up to our detective, I think.
Copy !req
44. I have returned!
Copy !req
45. Welcome back!
Copy !req
46. I'm going back in!
Copy !req
47. What?
Copy !req
48. Wait, a sleeping bag?
Copy !req
49. I'll hit him with an overnight camp-out!
Copy !req
50. It's a showdown to see who
bites it first, me or Mamoru!
Copy !req
51. Please don't offer up your life so easily...
Copy !req
52. You've got some guts!
Copy !req
53. I knew you had it in you!
Copy !req
54. It's so cute!
Copy !req
55. These are the graphics
for our upcoming game.
Copy !req
56. That's moe AF!
Copy !req
57. Moe AF?
Copy !req
58. Windows is so nice.
Copy !req
59. You can use lots of colors,
Photoshop is great,
Copy !req
60. and tablets are so easy to use.
Copy !req
61. I can't go back to PC-98 after this!
Copy !req
62. Whoa, a pen tablet!
Copy !req
63. This takes me back!
Copy !req
64. So small! How adorable!
Copy !req
65. Takes you back?
Copy !req
66. This is the latest tablet.
Copy !req
67. That reminds me, Kono-chan.
Copy !req
68. What kind of stuff do you usually draw?
Copy !req
69. W-Well, y-you see...
Copy !req
70. Don't you dare do anything.
Copy !req
71. Time travelers aren't supposed
to change history, right?
Copy !req
72. It...
Copy !req
73. It?
Copy !req
74. It's a secret!
Copy !req
75. If I can't tell them that, why the
heck did I come to the past?
Copy !req
76. Mamoru-kun, you idiot!
Copy !req
77. This bag is so heavy!
Copy !req
78. Konoha-san!
Copy !req
79. Toya-chan!
Copy !req
80. You sure are carrying a lot.
Copy !req
81. Are you camping out somewhere?
Copy !req
82. Yeah!
Copy !req
83. I'm prepared to stay there
until I complete my mission!
Copy !req
84. Is it the release of a big title?
Copy !req
85. Doesn't seem to be the case...
Copy !req
86. This is for work!
Copy !req
87. As a super cop...
Copy !req
88. Ah! That's supposed to be confidential...
Copy !req
89. I see.
Copy !req
90. I'll leave it at that, then.
Copy !req
91. I'm sorry for inviting you
to lunch during work.
Copy !req
92. Nah, I hadn't eaten anything yet.
Copy !req
93. Are you sure you're okay paying for me?
Copy !req
94. Yes! I wanted to thank you for last time.
Copy !req
95. Feel free to get extra toppings or noodles!
Copy !req
96. Yay! Thanks!
Copy !req
97. Did you buy some more games?
Copy !req
98. Yes.
Copy !req
99. I heard about them on NIFTY a while
back, and I've wanted them ever since.
Copy !req
100. I didn't have the courage to
enter a video game shop before,
Copy !req
101. but I managed to buy them
all by myself today.
Copy !req
102. It's all thanks to you, Konoha-san!
Copy !req
103. So cute!
Copy !req
104. Toya-chan, you really
love bishojo games, huh?
Copy !req
105. Yes!
Copy !req
106. I really like the cute girls, and bishojo
games nowadays are really fun to play!
Copy !req
107. People line up outside
stores for their release,
Copy !req
108. and there's a lot of art in the magazines.
Copy !req
109. I feel like they're getting
more and more mainstreamŽ!
Copy !req
110. Mm-hmm!
Copy !req
111. In these days, people bought them
even without any bonuses attached!
Copy !req
112. What do you mean by bonuses?
Copy !req
113. Extra goodies that come with the game.
Copy !req
114. Um, you know, like telephone cards!
Copy !req
115. Phonecards?
Copy !req
116. Also, tapestries!
Copy !req
117. Digital design references!
Copy !req
118. Life-size cut-outs!
Copy !req
119. CDs of two older sisters sweetly
soothing you to sleep!
Copy !req
120. Ah, um...
Copy !req
121. Imagine if that's what the future held!
Copy !req
122. I see.
Copy !req
123. It really does feel like
the momentum is there,
Copy !req
124. so a future like that wouldn't surprise me.
Copy !req
125. Yeah!
Copy !req
126. It's gonna happen! I guarantee it!
Copy !req
127. Order up!
Copy !req
128. That was good!
Copy !req
129. Okay, I've gotta get back to work.
Copy !req
130. Yes.
Copy !req
131. I still have some games I want to
buy, so I'm off to search for them.
Copy !req
132. All right, see ya!
Copy !req
133. U-Um, Konoha-san...
Copy !req
134. No...
Copy !req
135. Onee-sama!
Copy !req
136. O-Onee-sama?
Copy !req
137. W-Well, you're the first person I've met
that I could freely discuss bishojo games with.
Copy !req
138. A-And so, if you're okay with it...
Copy !req
139. I'd love to meet up with
you like this again!
Copy !req
140. Yeah, of course...
Copy !req
141. S-Sure, sounds good.
Copy !req
142. We'll probably run into each other again.
Copy !req
143. Bye!
Copy !req
144. The future of bishojo
games is looking bright!
Copy !req
145. Man, "Onee-sama", huh?
Copy !req
146. Okay!
Copy !req
147. That's what happened today, Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
148. I'm really going to call the cops on you.
Copy !req
149. You're disturbing the peace!
Copy !req
150. It's 1 in the morning!
Copy !req
151. This apartment's at the end of the
hallway, so no one passes by.
Copy !req
152. And I'm using my inside voice.
Copy !req
153. You blatantly lowered your voice just now.
Copy !req
154. If you don't want me here, give
up and go back to Alcohol Soft!
Copy !req
155. Just to warn you, I've
brought plenty of food!
Copy !req
156. Besides, I'm used to pulling all-nighters!
Copy !req
157. All-nighters are an otaku passive skill!
Copy !req
158. I'm going to stay up and
make you change your mind!
Copy !req
159. What are you, a land grabber?
Copy !req
160. She fell asleep so quickly...
Copy !req
161. This is...
Copy !req
162. the device from the future she mentioned...
Copy !req
163. Mamoru-kun?
Copy !req
164. I think our limit is here.
Copy !req
165. We've got most of the writing
and CGs wrapped up.
Copy !req
166. All we need now is the programming...
Copy !req
167. In other words, Mamocchi.
Copy !req
168. Yes...
Copy !req
169. No, wait!
Copy !req
170. There's also Comiket!
Copy !req
171. We need people to help us with our cosplay!
Copy !req
172. In a situation like this?
Copy !req
173. No matter how busy we are,
we can't skip Summer Comiket!
Copy !req
174. O-Okay, I get it...
Copy !req
175. Sheesh.
Copy !req
176. You want me to write the script
without the game system in place?
Copy !req
177. What a backwards way of making games.
Copy !req
178. We have the specs written up, so
make sure your script follows them.
Copy !req
179. Already on it.
Copy !req
180. Just make sure I don't have to do major
rewrites later to match the system.
Copy !req
181. Kyonshi, you want Mamocchi to
write our game system, don't you?
Copy !req
182. Guess I do.
Copy !req
183. He can implement everything that
we ask for, which is great.
Copy !req
184. That's because Mamoru's been raised
on the PC-98 since he was a kid.
Copy !req
185. Manager.
Copy !req
186. The PC-98 is practically
a part of him by now.
Copy !req
187. He really might not come back.
Copy !req
188. He'll be back.
Copy !req
189. Mamocchi may be a PC-98 devotee,
Copy !req
190. but before that, he's
Alcohol Soft's programmer!
Copy !req
191. Yes, Alcohol Soft speaking.
Copy !req
192. Ah, Kono-chan!
Copy !req
193. Kao-san!
Copy !req
194. Kono-chan said Mamoru-kun's gone missing!
Copy !req
195. Mamocchi's gone missing?
Copy !req
196. I-I-I'm so sorry!
Copy !req
197. I ended up taking a teensy nap, you see!
Copy !req
198. And he ran off while I was asleep!
Copy !req
199. Do you know where he went?
Copy !req
200. Do everything you can to find him!
Copy !req
201. Got it!
Copy !req
202. I'll look for him as hard as I can!
Copy !req
203. Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
204. Where are you?
Copy !req
205. Feel free to take as many as you want.
Copy !req
206. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
207. Moving out?
Copy !req
208. No.
Copy !req
209. I guess... I'm drawing the line.
Copy !req
210. Th-This is embarrassing!
Copy !req
211. You look great!
Copy !req
212. In the end, Mamoru never showed up.
Copy !req
213. I'm so sorry!
Copy !req
214. It's all my fault!
Copy !req
215. I failed as a detective!
Copy !req
216. I died in the line of duty!
Copy !req
217. That's not true! Not at all!
Copy !req
218. You did just fine!
Copy !req
219. Looks like we'll need to
find another programmer.
Copy !req
220. Do any of you have someone in mind?
Copy !req
221. We can't wait any longer.
Copy !req
222. Mamocchi is...
Copy !req
223. This is...
Copy !req
224. This is my...
Copy !req
225. love for the PC-98!
Copy !req
226. Have a good look!
Copy !req
227. M-Mamoru-kun?
Copy !req
228. Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
229. Welcome back!
Copy !req
230. Welcome back, Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
231. I knew you'd come back, Mamocchi!
Copy !req
232. Glory to the PC-9801!
Copy !req
233. Glory!
Copy !req
234. Everything is proceeding
according to the script.
Copy !req
235. Glory! Glory!
Copy !req
236. Mamoru-kun, I thought you
would never come back!
Copy !req
237. Serious protag move there!
Copy !req
238. So you were making that cosplay!
Copy !req
239. Wow!
Copy !req
240. This is a funeral for the PC-98.
Copy !req
241. Hey, what year did you come from?
Copy !req
242. You're from the future, right?
Copy !req
243. What year?
Copy !req
244. U-Um, you said...
Copy !req
245. I believe you.
Copy !req
246. Just tell me.
Copy !req
247. I-I came here from the year 2023.
Copy !req
248. Normally, there's no way I'd
believe any of what you said.
Copy !req
249. But I knew it was true the moment
I held that PDA of yours.
Copy !req
250. Something like that could
never exist in this age.
Copy !req
251. My tablet...
Copy !req
252. You came from the future, and
you knew about computers,
Copy !req
253. but you didn't know
anything about the PC-98.
Copy !req
254. In the future that you came
from, the PC-98 is long gone.
Copy !req
255. U-Um, well...
Copy !req
256. I had already known it deep down.
Copy !req
257. The age of the PC-98 is coming to an end.
Copy !req
258. I just didn't want to admit it.
Copy !req
259. I didn't think it'd be your broken
PDA that made me realize.
Copy !req
260. Which is why this is my
send-off for the PC-98.
Copy !req
261. And you're fine with that, Mamoru-kun?
Copy !req
262. Wh-Why do you think that because
I didn't know about the PC-98,
Copy !req
263. the PC-98 won't exist in the future?
Copy !req
264. The fact that you didn't
know about it means—
Copy !req
265. In that case, if the PC-98 doesn't exist
in the future, you can just change it!
Copy !req
266. Huh?
Copy !req
267. In movies about time travelers,
all of them change the future!
Copy !req
268. You say they can't change the
future, but that's a lie!
Copy !req
269. That's because we're talking about movies.
Copy !req
270. Is that how little you love the PC-98?
Copy !req
271. It's fine to change a future
like that, if it sucks!
Copy !req
272. No...
Copy !req
273. It's fine!
Copy !req
274. And to make it happen, you
need to work your butt off!
Copy !req
275. To make the PC-98 number one!
Copy !req
276. I know you can do it!
Copy !req
277. Because you're the one,
more than anyone I know,
Copy !req
278. who really loves the PC-98!
Copy !req
279. And you're not alone, Mamoru-kun!
Copy !req
280. Everyone else at Alcohol
Soft is there for you!
Copy !req
281. The people at Alcohol
Soft are all super nice!
Copy !req
282. If you all work together as a team,
there's nothing you can't do!
Copy !req
283. You love the PC-98, don't you?
Copy !req
284. Isn't that right?
Copy !req
285. Which is why you want me
to go back and make eroge.
Copy !req
286. W-Well...
Copy !req
287. You really are a weirdo.
Copy !req
288. I've never seen anyone get
so fired up about eroge.
Copy !req
289. Konoha-onee-sama!
Copy !req
290. Toya-chan!
Copy !req
291. I've always wanted to see it for myself,
Copy !req
292. so I finally worked up the
courage to come this year.
Copy !req
293. It's all because you helped me
buy those games, Onee-sama!
Copy !req
294. Now you're exaggerating...
Copy !req
295. That cosplay is really cute!
Copy !req
296. Y-You think?
Copy !req
297. K Works is all sold out!
Copy !req
298. K Works is the circle run by the
folks at Alcohol Soft, isn't it?
Copy !req
299. Onee-sama, do you know them?
Copy !req
300. Well, I did a bit of
part-time work for them.
Copy !req
301. Oh, I know!
Copy !req
302. Here, have a copy!
Copy !req
303. Are you sure?
Copy !req
304. Go ahead!
Copy !req
305. Well, it's not like I drew any of it.
Copy !req
306. Must be nice...
Copy !req
307. I'd love to be the one
selling a doujin one day!
Copy !req
308. Oh! Yeah, that sounds great!
Copy !req
309. I didn't know she had any friends.
Copy !req
310. Toya-chan, you know how to draw as well?
Copy !req
311. What do you draw?
Copy !req
312. Comic Market 50 has now come to a close.
Copy !req
313. Good work, everyone!
Copy !req
314. All right, here I go!
Copy !req
315. Hey.
Copy !req
316. And so, Comiket came to an end
for us, as a rousing success.
Copy !req
317. Mamoru-kun came back!
Copy !req
318. Under the condition that he could make a
PC-98 version alongside the Windows release,
Copy !req
319. Mamoru-kun returned as
Alcohol Soft's programmer!
Copy !req
320. Okay!
Copy !req
321. It's complete!
Copy !req
322. We did it!
Copy !req
323. I just wanna go home and sleep...
Copy !req
324. Yay!
Copy !req
325. Mamoru-kun, it's thanks to you
that we finished another game!
Copy !req
326. I got suckered into it by
that smooth tongue of yours.
Copy !req
327. In the end, I was just a
sub-illustrator again,
Copy !req
328. because I spent my time
playing detective for you!
Copy !req
329. I can't believe you're drunk off this stuff.
Copy !req
330. Oh yeah.
Copy !req
331. I fixed that PDA of yours for you.
Copy !req
332. Really?
Copy !req
333. I modified the connector
to supply it with power.
Copy !req
334. Doesn't look like anything's
wrong with the circuit board.
Copy !req
335. It turned on!
Copy !req
336. Look at this!
Copy !req
337. This is my art!
Copy !req
338. What's this?
Copy !req
339. The whole thing is an LCD?
Copy !req
340. W-Wait...
Copy !req
341. You're the one who drew this?
Copy !req
342. That's right!
Copy !req
343. Isn't it cute?
Copy !req
344. Everyone! Take a look at this!
Copy !req
345. Stop it!
Copy !req
346. Don't show them that!
Copy !req
347. Why not?
Copy !req
348. If they see that...
Copy !req
349. Whoa, hey!
Copy !req
350. Ow, ow, ow...
Copy !req
351. Hey, you!
Copy !req
352. Mamoru-kun...
Copy !req
353. Let's make a game...
Copy !req
354. H-Hey!
Copy !req
355. She's gone?
Copy !req
