00:00Huh? So then you don't currently have a boyfriend, Ms. Kinoshita?
00:05Uh, that's right.
00:07Would you want to go out sometime? Believe it or not, I'm kind of a catch.
00:11Huh?
00:15Get out! Who would have guessed? Oh, how hilarious!
00:22Hmm.
00:26I set up this group date for you, remember?
00:29Sorry, guess I'm not ready. I'd like to go home now.
00:36Ms. Kinoshita, I hear that you're hooked on some game now.
00:40What's it called? I'm into mobile gaming, too.
00:43Why don't we play together sometime?
00:45Well, the thing is, it's not for smartphones.
00:48It's actually a computer game called Forest of Savior.
00:52Oh. Oh, yeah. Forest.
00:56Uh, I might have caught one of the commercials they had for it. Yeah.
01:01Yep, that's where I know it from.
01:03I saw the commercial!
01:05Sorry.
01:06No, wait. Oh, that one.
01:09Forest, right?
01:10Uh, Saber something or other?
01:12Oh, get with the program. Are you even trying here?
01:17We had a great group date going and you wasted it tinkering with your phone!
01:20Are you motivated or not?
01:22Sorry.
01:23I got a text from Rudy and I couldn't help myself.
01:26Rudy?
01:26Oh, right. One of my friends from Vos. She's this girl with the most adorable avatar ever.
01:33A girl?
01:34Yeah. What's wrong?
01:35Hmm. How do you know for sure it's not actually some creepy old guy?
01:40Isn't giving out your number risky?
01:43But I really do think that she's a girl.
01:47Whatever you say.
01:49Anyway, I'm heading this way.
01:51Buh-bye!
01:51To be honest, I never gave it a second thought.
02:12In my mind, I'm picturing her as a girl in high school.
02:15I wonder what she's like.
02:25Oh.
02:29Wow. Gothic Lolita?
02:32No, wait.
02:33Yumekawa?
02:37That girl.
02:38She reminded me of Duri Hime.
02:43All right!
02:44Guys, I only have afternoon classes tomorrow, so I can play to my heart's content tonight.
02:54Oh, well. Whatever.
03:03I'm just not in a place where I'm ready for another romance yet.
03:11Huh?
03:14There's no one hanging out in the guild hall.
03:18Hmm.
03:19Oh.
03:21It's Duri Hime and Yamada!
03:25Wonder what they're up to.
03:27Maybe the three of us can go hunting together.
03:30Let's see.
03:31Oh.
03:44That's odd.
03:45It doesn't seem like they've realized I'm here.
03:51Say, doesn't this remind you of when we first started this guild?
03:56Yeah, I guess.
03:57Back then, it was just you and me all the time, remember?
04:02There are so many more members these days.
04:06But it's nice to be alone once in a while.
04:10Having more time to live it up with everyone means there's less time to be alone with you.
04:15Rudy's kind of missed that, you know?
04:17Well, when it was only the two of us, it was easier getting things done.
04:28These!
04:30These two are...
04:33An item!
04:34Here's the item.
04:35Ooh, thank you.
04:37Alchemy skills, so convenient.
04:40Maybe I should try and get the skill too.
04:42Oh, by the way, there's another guild member here now, you know.
04:47Hey!
04:48It's Akanechi!
04:50I totally missed your login alert.
04:53Sorry, Akanechi.
04:57What?
04:59Don't be silly, of course you're not.
05:04I'm all done.
05:05I need to be somewhere, so I'm logging out.
05:07Okay.
05:08Bye, I'll give you a call later.
05:10Call?
05:10Right.
05:10Ciao for now!
05:18I hadn't thought of it before.
05:21But Yamada never has much to do with anyone else.
05:25Yet, he's always talking to Ruri-hime.
05:29Could those two be...
05:32Boyfriend and girlfriend?
05:35Takuma and I started playing together, didn't we?
05:38Maybe Yamada and Ruri-hime.
05:40Akanechi?
05:44Akanechi?
05:46You feeling down?
05:48No, no, I'm okay, really!
05:53I am kinda down.
05:58But...
05:58Why?
06:00Why?
06:00I don't understand.
06:21Why can't I get those two out of my mind?
06:27Social media, with its power to connect people from all over the world,
06:31played a role in the movement known as the Arab Spring,
06:34which started in North Africa.
06:35As you can see from this example, social media has probably been found in this future.
06:41One thing today, creating new connections...
06:44That's Yamada's account.
06:45I wanna take a look at it, but...
06:50If I did that, it would be like spying on him.
06:54Miss Kinoshita!
06:57Huh?
06:58Hey!
06:59Oh, it's the guy from the group date.
07:02What's his name again?
07:04So you were in that class too?
07:07Small world, huh?
07:08I could see you fiddling with your smartphone from where I was.
07:11No way!
07:12Seriously?
07:13Your name...
07:14What's your name?
07:15No good.
07:16I'm drawing a blank.
07:19By the way, after that group date, I checked out Forest of Saber.
07:23It's a pretty popular game, huh?
07:25I guess so.
07:26Reading up on it made me want to try it out.
07:29I mean, I do like games.
07:31So many guys are into gaming.
07:35Speaking of which, do you play FPS games?
07:38F-what?
07:39Do you know the pro gamer Yamada?
07:42Oh, yeah, that Yamada.
07:45I, uh...
07:46I think I might have seen him in a commercial.
07:50Sorry I asked.
07:51You really like games, don't you, Miss Kinoshita?
07:54I'm not sure why, but for some reason I've been feeling so rattled.
08:01So listen, the guys in my club are talking about getting together to take a trip to Okinawa this summer.
08:07Really? That sounds fun.
08:09Of course it'll be fun. Having a good time is like second nature for us.
08:13You can come too if you want, Miss Kinoshita.
08:15Huh?
08:17I'm pretty sure I've...
08:19Seen that girl before.
08:26Thanks for waiting.
08:29Come on, let's go.
08:36And the hotel we always stay at has rooms with an ocean view.
08:39I've never even had a girlfriend.
08:48Well, it's no surprise with how good-looking Yamada is.
08:51Why wouldn't he have a girlfriend or two, right?
08:55It makes sense.
08:59Miss Kinoshita?
09:00What?
09:01Oh, I'm headed this way, so I'll be going now.
09:03Hey, Miss Kinoshita!
09:05See you in class!
09:05It makes sense.
09:10So why is it that I feel so rattled?
09:13Guess I'll pass on logging in tonight.
09:43Who's that?
09:47Momo maybe?
09:52Oh man, what should I do?
09:56I'm not really in the mood to play tonight.
10:03False news?
10:04I haven't logged in today, so no, I haven't.
10:13A collab cafe, huh?
10:19Ran into him IRL?
10:23Could it be...
10:25The girl I saw actually was Rudihime?
10:27It did cross my mind that she had a real Rudihime vibe going on.
10:36So does that mean...
10:38Those two are...
10:39Who's the one?
10:44What?
10:47Huh?
10:52Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...
10:55Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:58Oh, my God.
11:28Okay, then, suppose I'll get ready.
11:40To be fair, getting to meet your fellow guild members is rare.
11:44So this is a great opportunity.
11:58I'm going to enjoy myself.
12:16Let's see.
12:19The Murata building north of the station will be to your left as you go straight and cross.
12:26Uh-oh.
12:30I should check the map again.
12:57Where is it?
13:04Sorry about that.
13:05Oh, no. It was all my fault.
13:06I'll get it for you.
13:08I just hope your phone didn't get cracked.
13:10Are you going to the Foss Collab Café?
13:18Huh?
13:23And by any chance, do you happen to play that game?
13:26Since it's a pretty casual game, I'd heard there have been a lot of ladies getting into it.
13:37But who would have thought in a million years someone as beautiful as you was playing?
13:40Oh, please. You're too kind.
13:43I'm tagging along because he said he'd show me the way.
13:47But what if this is a new kind of hustle?
13:48My friend and I started playing for fun one day, but we're really into it now.
13:54We even ended up starting our own guild together.
13:56The game balance throughout is surprisingly well-maintained.
13:59And I love that there's no power gaps fueled by in-game purchases.
14:03You could say the graphics are somewhat outdated.
14:05But they're cute enough that I can live with the look.
14:08And best of all, there's no dominant race, which allows for some sweet diversity among the races.
14:12Also, I just don't think any job class is better than the others.
14:15But that's not to say one hasn't piqued my interest.
14:17At the moment, I'm currently leaning towards the mage class.
14:20Although I've got to hand it to the dev team.
14:22Every update brings a spot-on adjustment.
14:24And thanks to guild buffs and the like, guild battles have real meaning.
14:27So it's perfectly designed to be party-oriented.
14:30That's what makes in-game interactions so worthwhile.
14:32By the same token, powering up can feel masochistic.
14:35But there is proper speed running.
14:37I can tell the devs really went out of their way to reflect user feedback.
14:40It's obvious they've learned from their past mistakes and are trying to get better.
14:43Thank goodness. He's just a gamer.
14:45Anyway, that's my take on it.
14:47What do you think?
14:48Uh-huh.
14:49Well, um...
14:52I'm still a beginner when it comes to the game.
14:54So I don't know nearly as much as the rest of you.
14:57Just the other day, I got yelled at for putting junk in the guild's storage.
15:02That said, the guild master's been so nice to me.
15:05So I really like my guild despite all that.
15:07Oh, I think he's here.
15:22Hey!
15:23Over here!
15:25We're all waiting!
15:26Come on over!
15:27This way!
15:29Oh, that girl.
15:30Is it...
15:32Rurihime?
15:35What do you know?
15:38You're playing that game too, Yamada?
15:39Let's go one-on-one sometime.
15:41Sure.
15:44Yamada!
15:45Long time no see.
15:50Yeah, it's been a while.
15:51Things going okay?
15:52Fine, I'd say.
15:53Fine, huh?
15:55Huh?
15:59And you must be Rurihime, am I right?
16:02Nice to meet you.
16:04You look just like your character, so I knew who you were right away.
16:08Thanks for your text this morning.
16:09I can't quite put my finger on it, but she seems a little different than she is in-game.
16:27So, yeah.
16:31What's going on here?
16:33Who is this, Eta?
16:34I have a hunch.
16:37You're Akanechi.
16:39Aren't you?
17:00Uh, so would you guys like to go inside now?
17:03Finally, made it.
17:21She's freaking heavy.
17:37I'm exhausted.
17:40What's with the late arrival?
18:00Where were you, dude?
18:01We're all waiting on you.
18:03Sorry to keep you.
18:04It's just that one thing led to another, and now there's a strange woman sleeping in my apartment.
18:11Huh?
18:13Uh.
18:13Oh, woman?
18:16You said that, right?
18:17Unforgivable.
18:18Oh, woman?
18:18You said woman, right?
18:20You all heard it, right?
18:21Unforgivable.
18:22Unforgivable.
18:22Yo, which one of you is chanting that curse?
18:25Unforgivable.
18:27Hey, send some photos.
18:28I have to see.
18:29I swear I won't post them.
18:30You know me.
18:31I'm internet savvy.
18:32That is not happening.
18:34I'm your teammate.
18:35Trust me.
18:36I don't feel so good.
18:41Present an optical impression to us, and thy sin shall be a good time.
18:45Stepping away for a sec.
18:46Hey, Yamada, hold up!
18:48Well, now I'm pissed.
18:50I'm gonna trash your account.
18:51Don't do that.
18:52Touch low literacy.
18:57Uh, are you alright?
18:59Uh.
19:03Are you thirsty?
19:05I've got water.
19:08Uh.
19:09Uh.
19:12No, I don't need it.
19:17You.
19:18Don't like me anymore.
19:21Do you?
19:25So just go away.
19:28And leave me be.
19:31Go already.
19:32Telling me to go.
19:35While clinging to me.
19:37Isn't that a contradiction?
19:40Seems that way.
19:41But is that really what's going on?
19:44I just don't get it.
19:45I don't know.
19:54Still.
19:57If I move now.
19:58Something tells me.
20:01That she'll cry even harder.
20:04She's been crying non-stop.
20:20How miserable can she be?
20:26It must be really rough.
20:28This thing.
20:30Called romance.
20:31Please sleep peacefully till morning.
20:39I'm gonna hurl!
