What the heck is this? It's so confusing.
There are so many useless cords here.
I know nothing about VR, but could it really be that good?
What's next? I have to wear this toy?
Ha! This is so silly!
I'll play for one hour,
do a thorough, negative review, and sell this secondhand.
Oh, it's starting!
Huh? What's this?
No way!
What? I have to ride this train?
He's coming!
We're always riding the same train, aren't we?
It's true!
Everything that Retsuko said...
is really true!
RAGE
DRIVER'S LICENSE
Your business card.
Ah, yes! I also wrote my phone number on the back.
ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT RETSUKO
So this is all your fault, right?
Um, yes, I guess so.
Not "I guess so." Your answer is, "That's right."
I'm sorry.
Huh?
Wait! Where are you going?
I'm going to work.
But we have to be here for the police investigation.
I have to be at work to get things done!
What?
Seriously?
Didn't you ask for the other party's number?
No...
Have you called your insurer?
I have.
Well, if he's gone, then he's gone. There's nothing we can do about that.
If he contacts you at all, please tell him to get in touch.
My future...
is so grim.
Here are some gifts from my family trip!
Wow, sounds nice. Where did you go?
Karuizawa! One per person, okay?
Thanks.
Take yours, Retsuko!
One per person, okay?
One per person, please...
What's with that expression?
You look like that idiot acquaintance of mine who lost his stocks.
Don't bring personal issues to work.
Redo this.
Today, she's surviving off gifts from Karuizawa.
She needs to improve her diet.
One week has passed,
with no call from that minivan guy.
You haven't reached your insurance deductible yet.
So it'll be 50,000 in damages for each party
and 20,000 for damage compensation.
You must pay a total of 120,000 yen.
However, in this case, you can't contact the other party...
So what will happen next?
No idea!
What is he scheming?
Maybe he'll claim later on that his neck hurts.
Maybe he'll ask for outrageous compensation.
No way, no way! That's so scary!
Anyhow, I don't have enough money!
I don't have enough money...
I don't have enough money!
Hey, Retsuko!
Wanna get drinks today?
Or even just something to eat? Something nourishing or...
I don't have enough money.
What?
Hey... it's my treat, okay?
It's my treat...
Borrowing money is my only option at this point!
Ms. Gori is easily swayed by emotions, so maybe...
CAN WE MEET TODAY? THERE'S SOMETHING I WANT TO ASK...
SURE! WANNA COME OVER?
I bought it!
What is this place? It's huge!
I've finally bought a house!
As expected of Director Gori and her fat bank account!
I can count on her, for sure!
It's almost like a celebrity's house! It's so elegant.
-Oh? You really think so? -Hmm?
In that case, I'll show you
the true face of this hellish 30-year loan plan!
-This is from a 100-yen shop! -What? I had no idea!
This one, too! And this! All from 100-yen shops!
I made a large down payment,
so I'm actually penniless now.
Why did you do that?
To back myself into a corner.
Pressure makes us work harder, don't you think?
By "working hard," you mean...
Yes! My matchmaking app!
GORI'S MARRIAGE COUNSELING
I'll work hard at my main job, too, of course.
Just you see. I'll work hard to make this a hit.
And then, someday, I'll become worthy of this house.
-So what did you want to talk about? -Huh?
Didn't you have a request or something?
Ah... well, actually...
I don't think this is the right time to ask for money.
Oh, right! Your matchmaking app!
Can I be a tester?
That's what I wanted... to request...
What do you mean?
Life's been a bit dull, so I figure why not spice it up?
Wait, are you saying you want to start looking for a boyfriend again?
Why not? Of course you can!
Wait a sec. I'll send the link to the test server.
Thank you so much!
ADD A NEW PHOTO PROFILE
Why do I have to drink with you?
You're the one who invited me!
Heh. That's true.
Can I go home now? I'm making my girlfriend wait.
Girlfriend? Ha! Don't lie to me.
She's really a virtual girlfriend from some VR, isn't she?
From a virtual reality? No, she's not...
Then call her over! Call her right now!
Ah, geez! You're such a handful!
Washimi is the last person I can count on.
But unlike Director Gori, she can be pretty cold...
Huh? Who's this?
Hello?
Hey, Missy?
I'm near your house right now.
CAFÉ
Man, my neck hurts...
Um...
After the accident, the police said they wanted you...
to contact... them...
What did you tell the police?
Huh?
Your car crashed into my parked car due to your bad driving.
Am I wrong?
Yes, that's the gist of it.
In which case, I am not at fault.
I won't contact the police.
What? That's a bit problematic!
Shut up. I'm the one who gets to say that.
If I am not at fault,
then my insurer is unable to negotiate with you.
That is the law.
In other words, I have to talk with your insurer myself.
Depending on the situation, a lawyer may be needed.
Why do I, as the victim, have to handle such a troublesome... Ouch!
He's really forcing my attention to his neck!
He'll definitely make me cover outrageous medical expenses!
A settlement agreement.
Once you sign that, we can process our agreement.
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
This has to be some shady agreement.
I will definitely be in trouble if I sign this!
Um...
I know I caused you a lot of trouble, and I am really sorry,
but please have a doctor detail your injury,
and report it to your insurance company!
My injury?
Where does it say anything about that?
Huh?
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND YEN PAYMENT
ALL SETTLEMENTS WILL THEREBY BE CLOSED, WITH NO ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS REQUIRED
It's actually... pretty fair?
Hey, Anai.
Actually, I wanna try out a VR. Let me try yours.
I told you, I don't have one!
Don't hide it from me!
Come on, it's not even 8:00 p.m. yet! How can you be so wasted?
Anai? Welcome home!
I'm home. Sorry! Were you working?
Yeah, I added a bit to the draft.
Really? Thanks.
Wait a second. I'll open the door.
Oh... Hello.
-What a realistic VR. -This is reality!
Nice to meet you. I'm Hakumi.
Ah, hello.
RETSUKO PERSONAL STAMP
Here you go.
Thanks.
20,000 yen?
I'm sorry! That's all I can pay right now!
I left in the middle of work for this, you know.
What the heck is this?
KEEP IT TOGETHER! - MOM
I don't have the money right now,
but I promise I'll pay you later.
And I swear I will handle this properly.
I'll take side jobs or something to make money!
Side jobs?
Do you have anything in mind?
No, but I'll start looking.
You do accounting, right?
Yes.
I'll give you a job.
Come with me.
Where is he taking me?
Excuse me, what line of work are you in?
You'll see for yourself.
I'd rather not!
-Get out. -Okay.
-Hurry up. -Okay.
Oh, no...
What are you doing? Come quick.
O! T! M!
I want to be a viral star
On a shiny stage somewhere
It may be sad but I still dream
In the darkness of my mind
Hey! Don't just stare mindlessly. Give it more hype!
You too! Get closer. Come on. You too!
Good.
You, you, and you, in this moment,
the three of you are the greatest girls in the world!
Guys! Cheer more!
One, two! O.T.M.
What is going on here?
