1. December 1999Copy !req
2. What?Copy !req
3. It's better this way!Copy !req
4. You like bad endings way too much!Copy !req
5. This isn't a bad ending.Copy !req
6. According to Konoha, it's
called a "merry bad ending".Copy !req
7. It's a little bit different from the games
popular now that love to kill the player.Copy !req
8. Guess you're a bit too young to get it.Copy !req
9. Kyonshi!Copy !req
10. You sound like an old fart!Copy !req
11. I'm just fine with that!Copy !req
12. Meiko-san's fan is here again!Copy !req
13. To think that we live in an era where there
are obsessives for bishojo game artists.Copy !req
14. No one calls them "obsessives" these days.Copy !req
15. A stalker!Copy !req
16. Hey, Kono-chan.Copy !req
17. What is it, Meiko-san?Copy !req
18. Are we going to be adjusting
each other's line art or...Copy !req
19. Feel free to draw the way that you want!Copy !req
20. We just need to match the colors that we use.Copy !req
21. But your art style is
so different from mine.Copy !req
22. As long as the story is interesting,Copy !req
23. the different art styles
will just make it more moe!Copy !req
24. It's totally normal in gacha games!Copy !req
25. Gacha games?Copy !req
26. This game is even more amazing than
our previous title, Horoscope!Copy !req
27. First, the sheer amount of story...Copy !req
28. We did it!Copy !req
29. 16bit Sensation:
Another LayerCopy !req
30. 16bit Sensation:
Another LayerCopy !req
31. I was hoping that I wouldn't
have to fight you...Copy !req
32. but it seems that we must settle this here.Copy !req
33. H-Hey...Copy !req
34. This looks like a really fun game!Copy !req
35. We've been working hard to make it fun!Copy !req
36. Did we really make all of this?Copy !req
37. That's right!Copy !req
38. And in only five months' time!Copy !req
39. It's a miracle!Copy !req
40. The master copy, a backup copy,
and a spare copy on top of that.Copy !req
41. We've finished burning them all.Copy !req
42. Which means...Copy !req
43. We're done, everyone!Copy !req
44. Hooray!Copy !req
45. Hooray! Hooray!Copy !req
46. Hooray!Copy !req
47. And so, the new title that would
determine Alcohol Soft's fate,Copy !req
48. The Last Waltz, was finally complete!Copy !req
49. Cheers!Copy !req
50. Time to drink and eat our fill!Copy !req
51. I couldn't care less about
that one billion yen now!Copy !req
52. You couldn't?Copy !req
53. Making a game like this is more than enough!Copy !req
54. N-No, it isn't.Copy !req
55. No, it isn't!Copy !req
56. Hey!Copy !req
57. I really think this game
will be a hit, though!Copy !req
58. Yeah, everyone's reactions
seem really positive!Copy !req
59. I think we might be onto something here!Copy !req
60. Yeah!Copy !req
61. Kyonshi kept saying that
we'd never pull it off!Copy !req
62. I mean, who wouldn'tCopy !req
63. after that insane proposal?Copy !req
64. Sounds like you need...Copy !req
65. a little punishment!Copy !req
66. Not the arms! Not the arms!Copy !req
67. It's fine!Copy !req
68. We'll have Mamo-chan whip up
a speech recognition program!Copy !req
69. Problem solved!Copy !req
70. Hell no!Copy !req
71. This is hell on earth!Copy !req
72. I-I'm scared...Copy !req
73. Wait, where is Mamoru, anyway?Copy !req
74. Mamoru-kun should still
be back at the office.Copy !req
75. I swear!Copy !req
76. He's as cold as ever!Copy !req
77. I just remembered.Copy !req
78. Sofmap already put up their
poster for The Last Waltz.Copy !req
79. I-I want to see it!Copy !req
80. Let's go! Let's go!Copy !req
81. I'm so excited.Copy !req
82. It's so cold out!Copy !req
83. Ah! There it is!Copy !req
84. Wow, that's great!Copy !req
85. Seeing it here makes it feel so real!Copy !req
86. Yeah.Copy !req
87. Hey, let's all take a photo together!Copy !req
88. Did anyone bring a camera?Copy !req
89. I have one.Copy !req
90. Let's take it over there!Copy !req
91. Kono-chan.Copy !req
92. You know.Copy !req
93. I used to be a bit ashamed
about making bishojo games.Copy !req
94. What?Copy !req
95. I mean, a woman drawing cute
girls... and hentai at that.Copy !req
96. Isn't that a little weird?Copy !req
97. That's not true!Copy !req
98. But now I realize that none of
that matters at all.Copy !req
99. After all...Copy !req
100. Right now, I just want
everyone to play our game!Copy !req
101. I know for sure that this game is fun!Copy !req
102. We all drew art for it,Copy !req
103. painted it together,Copy !req
104. and contributed to the story,
the voices, and the audio.Copy !req
105. We brought it all together.Copy !req
106. All of you took away a little piece
of the shame that I was feeling.Copy !req
107. Which is why...Copy !req
108. Now, I want everyone to see!Copy !req
109. I want people all over the
world to play our game!Copy !req
110. Th-The world?Copy !req
111. M-Maybe that's a little much to ask for...Copy !req
112. No!Copy !req
113. That's not true!Copy !req
114. I like it! The world!Copy !req
115. We can beat 'em to the punch!Copy !req
116. Yep!Copy !req
117. Let's have people around the world play it!Copy !req
118. We can be the next Nekopara!Copy !req
119. Nyagan!Copy !req
120. Ny-Nyaga...Copy !req
121. Nyagan!Copy !req
122. Hey, get over here!Copy !req
123. We're about to take a picture!Copy !req
124. 'Kay!Copy !req
125. Meiko-san, let's hurry up!Copy !req
126. Hey, Manager.Copy !req
127. Once we take the photo,
let's go to that place!Copy !req
128. That place!Copy !req
129. What place are you talking about?Copy !req
130. We're talking about...Copy !req
131. The Dejiko building!Copy !req
132. So this is the Dejiko building!Copy !req
133. It's my first time seeing it!Copy !req
134. It really is amazing though, isn't it?Copy !req
135. I can't believe they let
that fly here in Akiba.Copy !req
136. Bishojo have finally made it
to the top of these buildings!Copy !req
137. Who knows, maybe we'll be able to
put up a huge billboard like this!Copy !req
138. The Dejiko building!
Just after it was built!Copy !req
139. Huh?Copy !req
140. Okay!Copy !req
141. Off to the next location! Let's go!Copy !req
142. Yeah!Copy !req
143. Oh, it's snowing!Copy !req
144. No wonder it's so cold.Copy !req
145. Yay! Snow! Snow!Copy !req
146. Onee-sama!Copy !req
147. Toya-chan!Copy !req
148. What are you doing out here so late?Copy !req
149. Oh, the Dejiko building!Copy !req
150. It really is incredible!Copy !req
151. Yeah, it is!Copy !req
152. Onee-sama, we're about to
enter the age of bishojo.Copy !req
153. Just like you said.Copy !req
154. Yeah! It'll happen for sure!Copy !req
155. By the way, Onee-sama.Copy !req
156. I see that you were making
a bishojo game, too.Copy !req
157. With the people over there.Copy !req
158. Those are the Alcohol
Soft folks, aren't they?Copy !req
159. Th-That's right.Copy !req
160. Until now, I was just doing
part-time work for them.Copy !req
161. Onee-sama, I'm going to
start up a new company!Copy !req
162. What?Copy !req
163. A company to develop games worthy
of the era that is coming.Copy !req
164. I wanted to be the one to
start it from scratch.Copy !req
165. Really?Copy !req
166. That's amazing!Copy !req
167. Yes...Copy !req
168. And, well...Copy !req
169. Onee-sama, won't you join me...Copy !req
170. Won't you join me and make games together?Copy !req
171. What?Copy !req
172. Ever since the day we met in Akiba,Copy !req
173. I've been following in your
footsteps the whole time!Copy !req
174. If I could make games with you by my side...Copy !req
175. That would make me so happy!Copy !req
176. What?Copy !req
177. D-Don't look at me like that...Copy !req
178. I-I don't deserve such praise!Copy !req
179. Onee-sama!Copy !req
180. I'm begging you!Copy !req
181. Yeah, sure!Copy !req
182. But now's probably not the time.Copy !req
183. What?Copy !req
184. I'm not sure how long I can stay here.Copy !req
185. Do you mean you're going on
a trip, or moving somewhere?Copy !req
186. Hmm, I'm not sure how to explain it.Copy !req
187. But, that being said,Copy !req
188. the next time we meet,
let's talk about games!Copy !req
189. We can make games together,Copy !req
190. or I'm fine with just
eating at Jangara Ramen!Copy !req
191. The two of us share a bond
through bishojo games!Copy !req
192. Yes, Onee-sama!Copy !req
193. Kono-chan!Copy !req
194. We're about to go for some more drinks!Copy !req
195. Wanna join us?Copy !req
196. I'm going to go back to the office!Copy !req
197. Okay, Toya-chan.Copy !req
198. See you later!Copy !req
199. Yes, Onee-sama!Copy !req
200. Found it.Copy !req
201. Echosoft...Copy !req
202. A discerning eye, I see.Copy !req
203. Isn't it amazing?Copy !req
204. A truly cult video game:Copy !req
205. Echosoft's Welcome to the Game House!Copy !req
206. A mysterious company that
disappeared after that one title.Copy !req
207. The game itself is utterly incoherent,
but it's one of a kind!Copy !req
208. Surely you've heard the name, at least.Copy !req
209. I hear they were up to some real shady
business and caught the eye of the police!Copy !req
210. Hm? The police?Copy !req
211. You don't know?Copy !req
212. I heard it on the grapevine.Copy !req
213. You could say it's a bit
like the Saori incident.Copy !req
214. Or they say the parent company
was, well, you know...Copy !req
215. You could say that about the
people in question, I suppose.Copy !req
216. Huh?Copy !req
217. No, it's nothing.Copy !req
218. Echosoft...Copy !req
219. I really did travel back in time.Copy !req
220. It wasn't a dream or a hallucination.Copy !req
221. The games that Konoha got from
that used video game store...Copy !req
222. Using those, Konoha, as well as
I, were sent back in time.Copy !req
223. Could it be that those games were
altered by Echo in some way?Copy !req
224. The games went up in flames?Copy !req
225. But why?Copy !req
226. I don't know.Copy !req
227. This was the only one left.Copy !req
228. All the games that Konoha had burned away.Copy !req
229. Since I opened up Gogo no Tenshi-tachi,Copy !req
230. the only one left now is Comic Party.Copy !req
231. I don't remember the titles too well,Copy !req
232. but all of the games that disappeared are
the ones that had yet to be released.Copy !req
233. Was it really okay that I was
the one who went back in time?Copy !req
234. Was that game actually
meant for Konoha to open?Copy !req
235. Also, meeting them...Copy !req
236. Mamoru-kun!Copy !req
237. I-I thought you were at the office!Copy !req
238. What's wrong?Copy !req
239. Here you go!Copy !req
240. The food from the drinking party!Copy !req
241. I had them pack it up!Copy !req
242. This is your share!Copy !req
243. I'm not hungry.Copy !req
244. What?Copy !req
245. In the end, you didn't disappear on us.Copy !req
246. Of course not!Copy !req
247. I can't just vanish in the
middle of making our game!Copy !req
248. Man, I sure am glad I didn't get sent back!Copy !req
249. It might be that your desire to make the
game is what let you stay here in this era.Copy !req
250. How exactly would that work?Copy !req
251. I don't know about the
mechanics or anything.Copy !req
252. I just thought that's how it might work.Copy !req
253. Does that mean I might vanish at any time?Copy !req
254. Maybe so.Copy !req
255. Or maybe you'll still be here next year.Copy !req
256. Well, since I don't know when I'll
vanish, I'll just tell you now!Copy !req
257. Mamoru-kun!Copy !req
258. What is it?Copy !req
259. It was awesome getting to
make a game with everyone!Copy !req
260. Really, really, really awesome!Copy !req
261. I love everyone at Alcohol Soft!Copy !req
262. This is exactly what I was
hoping to get a taste of!Copy !req
263. And if you weren't here, I wouldn't have
been able to make such an amazing game.Copy !req
264. Thank you so—Copy !req
265. Ah, you can spare me all of that.Copy !req
266. You're kind of grossing me out.Copy !req
267. G-Grossing you out?Copy !req
268. Hey!Copy !req
269. I'm trying to thank you honestly here!Copy !req
270. I didn't do any of this for you.Copy !req
271. It just happened to benefit both of us.Copy !req
272. Sheesh, I really wish you'd drop the
emotionless act at times like this.Copy !req
273. Well, we still don't know for sure.Copy !req
274. I may be satisfied, but it still
needs to make one billion yen.Copy !req
275. Don't you worry.Copy !req
276. That game will sell.Copy !req
277. Huh?Copy !req
278. It'll be a hit for sure.Copy !req
279. That game has enough energy
to accomplish that much.Copy !req
280. Eroge still holds so much possibility.Copy !req
281. It's a barren world out there.Copy !req
282. And now a game with this
much passion shows up.Copy !req
283. There's no way it wouldn't sell.Copy !req
284. It's exactly what everyone
has been waiting for.Copy !req
285. You think?Copy !req
286. Forget paying back one billion yen.Copy !req
287. I'm more worried that the money will
end up driving Dad crazy again.Copy !req
288. You sure do have energy to spare.Copy !req
289. Huh?Copy !req
290. It's people like you who make
their own dreams come true.Copy !req
291. I don't have the power that you do.Copy !req
292. That's not true at all!Copy !req
293. This game, as well as all the previous
ones, got made because of you!Copy !req
294. I know that you can accomplish
way bigger things than I can!Copy !req
295. I'm not so sure.Copy !req
296. Don't you have any dreams?Copy !req
297. Not really.Copy !req
298. As long as the PC-98 conquers the
world, I don't need anything else.Copy !req
299. I-I'd say that's a pretty
big dream already...Copy !req
300. I just don't want anything to change.Copy !req
301. This town, the PC-98...Copy !req
302. I want them all to stay the same.Copy !req
303. But people and places change
at a terrifying rate.Copy !req
304. And no one can stop it.Copy !req
305. But this time around, Alcohol
Soft will probably survive.Copy !req
306. Thanks to you, that is.Copy !req
307. Mamoru-kun!Copy !req
308. Look, it's snowing!Copy !req
309. It sure is.Copy !req
310. Let's hurry on back before you catch a cold.Copy !req
311. Mamoru-kun, look!Copy !req
312. There, up in the sky!Copy !req
313. Huh?Copy !req
314. I'm back here...Copy !req
315. The food...Copy !req
316. I didn't get a chance to give it to him.Copy !req
317. Well, nothing I can do about that...Copy !req
318. Yeah!Copy !req
319. I'm done time traveling!Copy !req
320. Now I'll do my best here in this world!Copy !req
321. Back to being an employee at Blue Bell, huh?Copy !req
322. But I've grown during my adventures,
and I'm a whole new person!Copy !req
323. Huh?Copy !req
324. What?Copy !req
325. What?Copy !req
326. I'm in Akiba, aren't I?Copy !req
327. Where's Animate?Copy !req
328. Where's Donki?Copy !req
329. What?Copy !req
330. I-I-I-Is this the Skytree?Copy !req
331. No, something's off!Copy !req
332. Th-The layout is just like Akiba...Copy !req
333. But still!Copy !req
334. Where am I?Copy !req
335. Akihabara...Copy !req
336. Is this really Akiba?Copy !req
337. What's going on?Copy !req
338. Wh-What was that?Copy !req
339. This building...Copy !req
340. Radio Kaikan!Copy !req
341. Hey!Copy !req
342. You there, missy!Copy !req
343. It's dangerous!Copy !req
344. Please don't get any closer!Copy !req
345. I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!Copy !req
346. B-But...Copy !req
347. This is the only place left
of the Akiba I remember...Copy !req
348. My dear Akiba!Copy !req
349. I'll call the cops on you!Copy !req
350. What is it?Copy !req
351. Ah!Copy !req
352. It seems that she wandered in here...Copy !req
353. Leave her to me.Copy !req
354. If you could return to your work.Copy !req
355. R-Right...Copy !req
356. It's been a while.Copy !req
357. A while?Copy !req
358. What?Copy !req
359. C-C-C-Could it be...Copy !req
360. Could it be that you're Mamoru-kun?Copy !req
361. Mamoru-kun...Copy !req
362. Mamoru-kun's...Copy !req
363. Mamoru-kun's...Copy !req
364. Mamoru-kun's an old man!Copy !req
