What You Can See in the Storm
I received the BGM and provisional background art from our outside source.
How'd it turn out?
We're about to find out.
Is that the song you were humming that one time?
Don't make me blush.
Let's take a look at the backgrounds!
Whoa!
Yeah, yeah!
Let me know if you have any problems with them.
Every background is just amazing!
This is really great.
Alright! We've got everything we need, so I'm gonna give it my all!
I'll compile a sample and do a trial run!
Put that data up on the server.
R-right.
Now it's really gonna feel like a game!
What're you listening to?
Hey, don't grab it!
Oh, it's Porori.
I like this song.
Yeah.
Goal: 7 KB every day
The lines just aren't coming to me.
I feel like we've been here every day.
We actually have, you know.
We haven't done anything summery at all.
You mean like the beach?
All right, the beach!
Kersplash!
Splash, splash!
That's not how it is! Splash, splash!
Summer's all about events! Splash, splash!
Not playing, but fighting!
Fighting?
She's talking about the big three-day otaku event in the city.
We'll be going to collect information.
I'm gonna tag along, too!
I don't mind, but will it get in the way of our work?
If there's a book she wants...
I'm fine, I'll just ask my friend to get it.
I'll be busy getting info, anyway!
I'm so bored.
No, that's not it...
"She's no murderer, she's just a perv!"
Hey, don't look over my shoulder all of a sudden!
I don't have anything else to do!
'Cause the script ain't done yet!
C'mon! C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
Hey! You just wanna have fun, don't you?! C'mon! C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
All done!
I got the first bit of code all put together!
I uploaded it to the shared folder, so go play with it!
Hurry it up, Bunta!
Don't rush me!
Big Bro Ranch
The title screen's got homos on it!
Yeah, I made that placeholder.
I'll switch it out later.
The rest of it's all using the game materials.
Whoa, it's really a game!
Akkina, you're awesome!
Keep layin' that praise on me!
This is what's called 'stage direction', right?
That's right!
I also put the background changes into the engine.
It's so cute!
Let's see,
"No! A whole new universe has been created?!"
"Eros, you must win over Thanatos!"
That's sure embarrassing.
Oh, shut it! Pipe down and watch!
Wow, it's really a game now!
Whaddya think, Mister Writer?
Um, huh?
That's weird.
What's up?
No, well, the script's...
How do I put it...
It's weird.
What's weird about it?
Here it ended with the protagonist screaming out, but it's different.
Didn't you change it yourself?
I didn't!
There's lots of other stuff.
It feels kinda off...
It's just weird.
Hmm, the writer's work has been changed without their knowledge!
It must be a virus!
I don't think so.
This is something a person did.
Ando, why did you change it?
Wait, really?
Why?
'Cause this way's better!
Ando-san, how much did you change?
I wasn't keeping track.
I fixed some misspellings, then some phrases.
Honestly, I was all over the place.
Ando-san, that's just...
But it's fine!
It's definitely better this way!
I'll announce the judgment.
Ando is guilty!
The programmer should not change the script!
Hey, why's that a rule?!
As a programmer, it's easy for me to find errors,
so it only makes sense that I fix them!
What if they're intentional misspellings?
What?
It's the writer who gets judged on the script...
Even if someone else goes in and changes things later.
Everyone has their praise, of course, but we all have our criticisms of the script.
But I forbid you from changing it without permission!
Alright, I got it.
Alright, everyone, let's get back to work.
We have to make up for the time we've lost.
R-right.
I've gotta pick up the pace starting tomorrow.
You're still sticking around, Yuki?
Y-yeah!
I've been feeling really good today,
so I want to keep going a little more.
What about you, Kuroda-san?
I'm staying. There's still a lot I have to do.
Good work today.
Alright, later.
U-um, I'm actually going to head out, too!
Good work. See you tomorrow.
H-hey, Senpai!
Umm!
Hey, can I ask you something?
I'm sorry!
Ando-san!
I heard you messed around with Yuki's art, too!
I did, so what?
There weren't enough differences between the expressions for me to direct,
so I added a few of my own.
What's wrong with that?
I heard that Yuki had to fix the new ones you made.
And now she's behind on the other work she had to do.
She said she could handle it!
You know Yuki's the kind of person who'd take it on regardless, right?
And you've added way too many new expressions!
You had parts where each line had their own expression!
Even I know that's doomed to fail!
The quickest way to make a character better is to give them more expressions.
You thought it was cute, didn't you?
But it's gone way too far!
You should think about Yuki's workload and--
I'm back!
I saw a whole new world!
Huh?
What's up?
Ando.
You are changing too many things to fit your whims.
I told you, we talked it over.
You caused Yuki to overflow and ask Hojo-kun for help.
That must mean you coerced her into--
Look, Torry said she'd do it!
Calm down, calm down...
You're doing so many things on your own, but what of your own work?
Did you finish our homepage yet?
Uh, well!
I haven't really started it yet!
What?!
No way, you're kidding, right?
You haven't done anything?
Nope, nothin'!
Hold on, hold on!
We're already a week behind on the release schedule!
How far are you, percent-wise?
Exactly zero!
Huh?
Wow.
Just to confirm, you were the one who wanted to do it, right?
Yeah, I said I did.
But I was so focused on the script I couldn't get it done!
I had to make another picture for the website, too...
Oh, that?
Yeah, I haven't touched it.
You can't do that, Ando-san.
We trusted you to get it done.
Like I said, I'm sorry.
Cut it out already!
Is that the kind of person you are, Teruha Ando?
Huh? What's that supposed to...
Who the hell do you think you are?
You're hard on others but easy on yourself.
I am justice, I am truth.
Perhaps you should ask yourself who the hell you are?
H-hey, hold on, you two.
Oh, I see, it's my fault.
I'm so terribly sorry.
Ando-san!
Alright, then!
I'll be hard on others and hard on myself.
So I'm firing myself!
Hey, Ando-san!
Let her be.
Are you really leaving?
Thanks for everything 'til now!
Hey, Kuroda-san, Ando-san's really leaving.
Fine.
What are we gonna do about the homepage?
We'll have to give up on it, since Ando won't be coming anymore.
But Ando-san was the only one doing programming.
And the scripting and the direction, too.
Can't we...
Can't we get Ando-san to come back?
No. She's not the kind of person who can work with a team.
But she cares more than anyone about making games.
I took a look at what she'd done up until now,
and it was amazing how much she'd gotten done.
Yeah.
She did more than all of us.
I was surprised that she changed my script, but she helped in a lot of places, too.
So...
So you want to make her give in and be an adult?
Dammit, if I'd known it'd end up this way I would've gone to the event.
It always ends up this way, huh?
Mom? What is it?
Where are you right now?
If you're free, could you help out with work?
I don't feel like it today.
I see.
Then I'll ask Mutsuha.
Oh, right, you have a classmate called Kai-kun, right?
Yeah, so?
He called asking to confirm your address.
What?
If he's coming over, maybe I should make dinner.
A-actually, I'll help!
I can help out!
Huh? At sea?
Yes, our family works as fishermen.
Usually she complains that it's a real pain,
but she suddenly jumped at the opportunity and said she'd go!
So that's where she is.
Sorry to bother you.
Oh, you're leaving already?
Hold on just a moment.
W-wow!
Akkina's mom is a goddess!
She got away.
Guess we should leave her alone until the start of next semester.
It'll be harder to tell her the longer we wait.
You're right.
Alright!
We'll send her lots of texts and stickers!
I wish we could pin her down.
Should we do a stakeout?
That's a good idea, a stakeout!
I know some good red bean bread we could buy!
And some milk boxes, too!
[Protag] "Yeah, a little... [Jishu] "I'm happy, too. I want to feel this happiness every morning." [Protag] "I'm not even afraid of your serious eyes anymore." [Jishu] "Oh? I wish you'd get just a little frightened of me." [Jishu] "Heh... not bad. I'll let you look at me some more." [Protag] "Jishu..." [Jishu] "Fu fu fu..." [Kirika] "At it already this morning?" [Protag] "Bwah Asamori-san?!"

The Hyakkei Hero's Sea Stories
Part-time fishing jobs... there.
Looking for part-timers! Risk your life to catch as many fish as you can! It's a job anyone can do! The sweet, stern Sea Hero will give you detailed guidance! (Don't worry, newbies!)
...detailed guidance.
Don't worry, newbies... huh?
Y-yo!
What a coincidence!
He's here for a short part-time stint.
Show him the ropes.
Go home, mister!
Hey, Teruha, there aren't a lot of young men who want to help out a fisherman!
Don't be rude!
Well, it's better than having Kuroda here.
Thanks!
We're going pretty far out to sea, huh?
What are we fishing for?
Nothing special.
The sea is a grand thing, after all.
Oh, I can see that.
Just as I'd expect of the Sea Hero!
Takeru! A school's comin' close!
Alright!
Huh? Who was that just now?
The will of this boat!
Huh? Then who's Takeru?
He's so cool!
Takeru, prepare the Dragon's Fangs!
Prep the Dragon's Fangs!
Huh? What's the Dragon Fangs?!
Dragon's Fangs ready!
Is this what fishing's like?
Takeru, the sky!
So it's begun!
What's begun?! What?!
Takeru! You gotta end it before it gets too choppy!
Got it, Ryujinmaru!
We're fishing, right?!
Get ready to bring 'er up!
Ready!
What do I do?!
Help Teruha!
Got it!
Hold on tight!
If you fall off, you're dead!
Pull in the net!
Full power!
Are you okay?
Yeah, I can handle this!
Ando-san, pull on three!
Got it!
One, two, three!
We did it!
Good work, you two!
You did it, Bunta!
Big Fish
Wait, when did it learn my name?
You really are oblivious to everything, aren't you?
This definitely isn't how fishing normally is, right?!
Good work.
Thanks.
Hey.
What happened with the homepage?
Kuroda-san told us to give up on it, but...
Huh? I see.
We all went to your house yesterday.
We all wanted you to come back.
I'm glad we made it out of that fishing trip okay.
I was worried about it for a while, but I feels really good now.
Yeah.
Maybe it's the same with making games.
If we push through, maybe we'll feel the same way.
We won't be able to finish without you, Ando-san.
Even if I come back, I don't think I'll be able to get along with Kuroda.
We're going for the wasteland, so it's alright to fight, don't you think?
Even so, I want to finish the game with you, Ando-san.
You really are a noob.
But I guess I'm not against your way of thinking.
Guess you could say I like it.
Hey, he fell asleep!
What is this?
It's straight out of a VN!
Better archive this for later.
Heyo!
Oh, Bunta!
Yuck, you smell like fish!
Did you go fishing?
Yeah, I went fishing!
You didn't fish up anything!
Akkina!
Ando-senpai!
You reeled her in!
Make sure you make up for the time you lost.
Kay.
Thank goodness.
Just like they say, after a storm, comes the puddles!
Comes the calm!
Teruha Ando's ready for a fresh start!
So, about that homepage.
Oh, could you help us with that?
Yuka tried making one, but...
Whoa, what is this? It's so old!
Perfect, ain't it?
I don't think so.
Guess I've got no choice.
I'll show you what a veteran can do!
Aww, and I was so proud of my homepage!
Let me see it.
It's...
Whaddya think?
Why is the text moving horizontally?
Really catches the eye, huh?
Why is a mouse chasing the cursor?
Cute, ain't it?
Why can't I right-click?!
Whaddya think!
