00:00I don't believe this, there's only four of them.
00:28They beat 1,200 players all on their own?
00:43Enough. This ends now.
00:57You're mine.
01:27No. You can't dodge that. You can't dodge that!
01:57Blank. And according to every player who has encountered them, they are indeed unbeatable.
02:02Cheaters. You think that's how they keep winning?
02:05Yeah, I'm sure of it. It's gotta be just a lousy group of hackers.
02:09Come on, there's no way they could beat 1,200 people with just the four of them.
02:13Auto-aimers and wallhacks, hitbox manipulation, they gotta be cheating.
02:17Oh, do they? And here I thought cheating was our expertise.
02:22Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to cast so many spells like that.
02:25I don't know. This is different.
02:27But Blank dodged them anyway. They already knew I was cheating to cast consecutive spells before I even did it.
02:34They're amazing. They're like super geniuses or something.
02:38You think maybe they'd go out with me?
02:44And so the rumors spread with their infamy. You know, urban legends are like a kind of wish.
02:50Because in reality, the least interesting answer is usually the correct one.
03:03We won. Somehow.
03:08Hey, listen, little sis. Could you do me a favor and please stop controlling the main account for Blank with your feet?
03:14Kinda nasty.
03:15Hungry. I'm still hungry.
03:20Want some, Sora?
03:22Sure, why not?
03:31Really splurging on some fancy rations, huh, Shiro?
03:35Nutrition's important.
03:37Listen, the human brain can function as long as it has glucose. White bread is best in terms of cost performance.
03:43Yeah, thanks for the lecture. But I need other types of nutrients too, or I won't get any bigger.
03:49You're already a perfect, flawless beauty, you darling girl.
03:54Hey, what time is it?
03:56Um, 8 a.m., the middle of the night.
03:59What day?
04:00Does that even matter to a need?
04:02It does! It tells me when the MMORPGs are going to have new events and-
04:06What? Wait! I know you've been up for five days straight, but if you quit now, I won't have a healer!
04:11I know you can do it.
04:13You seriously think I can control four characters at one time?
04:16Just believe.
04:19Wait! No! Please don't fall asleep!
04:21If you go to sleep, Shiro, everyone, and by everyone, I mean me, will die!
04:25Okay, fine, fine, I'll do it. I can take these suckers.
04:34This world is chaotic, unfair, and unforgiving. It has no meaning or value.
04:40However, some people simply refuse to accept this, even though they know they can't change anything.
04:46They wish that the world could be just a little more interesting.
04:50And that's how urban legends are formed, from wishes like that.
04:55Okay, so let's get things started.
04:58Let's offer a subtle stylistic catalyst for a chance at a new beginning.
05:02Let's ask the question, have you heard the latest rumor?
05:10Listen, your brother's been playing four characters on four separate screens.
05:14I don't know what you want, but I'm seriously about to drop dead here.
05:17It might be from a friend.
05:20Whose friend?
05:21Your friend.
05:24That's weird. I thought I heard my sister say something really mean and sarcastic to me.
05:35What is this? And how does this guy know that the two of us are siblings?
05:41What should we do?
05:45Is he trying to cut a deal with us?
05:48Well, it might be fun to see where this goes.
05:56Huh? Chess?
05:58Well, good night.
06:00Wait, wait! Don't fall asleep yet! I can't handle a high-level chess simulation on my own!
06:05Chess is a finite, two-player, zero-sum, perfect information game.
06:10Luck plays no part in it.
06:12Theoretically, to each game, there is a perfect solution that will never fail.
06:16Of course, that's only if you have a mind capable of calculating 10 to the power of 120 possible states of the board.
06:27Chess is no different than simply playing chess.
06:32Chess is no different than simply playing tic-tac-toe.
06:39That's right.
06:41Shiro has beaten a program designed to defeat grandmasters 20 times in a row, alternating between going first and second.
06:49However...
06:54It cut off its own pieces in advance.
06:56Hold on, Shiro.
06:58What?
06:59The program will always select the best strategy.
07:01You can win because they're predictable.
07:03But this one's deliberately using a bad move to lure you in.
07:07It's a human.
07:09Don't worry. If it's a contest of skill, you've got this in the bag.
07:12I'll tell you when they're up your row.
07:14Form two halves of a hole.
07:16Now let's see if there's somebody who's got the balls to beat us.
07:21Yeah, we won!
07:24Haven't worked this hard in a long time.
07:27Huh?
