EXTRA : I can't believe it!	(0:00:20.57)
EXTRA : There's only four of them!	(0:00:23.29)
EXTRA : And yet they beat 1,200 players?	(0:00:30.11)
EXTRA : It's over, though.	(0:00:44.37)
EXTRA : You're mine.	(0:01:09.07)
EXTRA : ... No way...	(0:01:28.23)
EXTRA : They dodged that too?	(0:01:30.43)
Teto : Have you heard of this urban myth?	(0:01:34.57)
Teto : There's a group of unknown players who beat every game they play.	(0:01:40.58)
Teto : Their scores are out of this world too.	(0:01:48.20)
Teto : They never fill in their account names,	(0:01:51.95)
Teto : so we only know them as "Blank".	(0:01:55.06)
Teto : It's said that these people are unbeatable.	(0:01:57.77)
EXTRA : You think the Blanks are cheaters?	(0:02:02.35)
EXTRA : Yeah. I'm pretty sure they're a group of cheaters.	(0:02:05.10)
EXTRA : There's no other explanation to the four of them beating 1,200 people.	(0:02:09.20)
EXTRA : They must've used aimbots, dodge hacks, and changed the size of their hitbox.	(0:02:12.96)
EXTRA : There's no doubt they're cheating.	(0:02:15.58)
EXTRA : No.	(0:02:17.36)
EXTRA : We were the ones breaking the rules.	(0:02:19.55)
EXTRA : There's no other way I'd be able to spam those massive spells.	(0:02:22.47)
EXTRA : What?	(0:02:25.45)
EXTRA : Blank still dodged them, though.	(0:02:26.62)
EXTRA : They predicted I'd cheat to spam those spells.	(0:02:28.71)
EXTRA : ...Blank...	(0:02:33.93)
EXTRA : I bet they're super smart!	(0:02:35.52)
EXTRA : ...I wonder who they are...	(0:02:37.84)
Teto : And so the rumors spread even faster.	(0:02:43.93)
Teto : Urban myths are kind of like a wish.	(0:02:47.81)
Teto : Because, when it comes down to it, the least interesting answer is usually the correct one.	(0:02:52.91)
Sora : ...I can't believe we won...	(0:03:04.17)
Sora : Hey, Sis, could you stop controlling Blank's main account with your feet?	(0:03:08.39)
Shiro : I'm hungry.	(0:03:15.66)
Shiro : Want some?	(0:03:19.87)
Sora : Thanks.	(0:03:22.45)
Sora : I'd have never thought you'd buy something this fancy.	(0:03:31.67)
Shiro : Nutrition is important.	(0:03:35.73)
Sora : Just so you know, Sis, the human brain can function so long as it has glucose.	(0:03:37.73)
Sora : In terms of cost-performance, white bread is the best.	(0:03:41.92)
Shiro : Nice min-maxing.	(0:03:44.10)
Shiro : But I won't grow if I don't get any other types of nutrients.	(0:03:46.14)
Sora : You're beautiful as you are, so I wouldn't worry about it.	(0:03:49.75)
Sora : Hey, what time is it?	(0:03:54.50)
Shiro : It's... 8:00 AM. The middle of the night.	(0:03:56.50)
Sora : What day is it?	(0:03:59.68)
Shiro : Does that really matter to a NEET?	(0:04:00.88)
Sora : Of course it does!	(0:04:03.01)
Sora : It lets us know whenever there are new events or tournaments in MMOs.	(0:04:04.02)
Sora : Hang on! I know you've been up for five days straight, but if you quit now, I won't have a healer!	(0:04:07.07)
Shiro : You can do it.	(0:04:12.45)
Sora : Do you really expect me to control four characters with my hands and feet?	(0:04:14.08)
Shiro : Good luck.	(0:04:17.02)
Sora : Hang on! Just hang on!	(0:04:19.53)
Sora : If you go to sleep, Shiro, then everyone— and by "everyone" I mean "me"—will die!	(0:04:21.53)
Sora : Fine, I'll do it!	(0:04:27.77)
Teto : The world is chaotic, unreasonable, and unfair.	(0:04:35.09)
Teto : It has no meaning whatsoever.	(0:04:38.58)
Teto : Those who realize that but refuse ...to come to terms with it make a wish—	(0:04:40.77)
Teto : a wish that the world could be a little more interesting.	(0:04:47.05)
Teto : That's what an urban myth is.	(0:04:51.53)
Teto : Let me lend you a hand.	(0:04:56.15)
Teto : And for the sake of form, I'll write,	(0:05:00.12)
Teto : "Have you ever heard a rumor like this?"	(0:05:04.59)
Shiro : Bro... you got an email.	(0:05:10.49)
Sora : Your brother's been playing four characters on four separate screens.	(0:05:12.42)
Sora : I don't know what you want, but I don't have the energy to do it.	(0:05:14.96)
Shiro : It might be from a friend.	(0:05:18.12)
Sora : Whose friend?	(0:05:21.31)
Shiro : Yours?	(0:05:22.47)
Sora : That's funny.	(0:05:25.23)
Sora : It's almost like my sweet little sister just said something mean and sarcastic about me.	(0:05:26.32)
Sora : What's this?	(0:05:36.01)
Sora : And how does he know that Blank are siblings?	(0:05:38.03)
Shiro : What do we do?	(0:05:43.26)
Sora : Is he trying to bargain with us?	(0:05:47.19)
Sora : Well, it could be fun to check it out.	(0:05:50.12)
Sora : Chess?	(0:05:59.33)
Shiro : ...Good night...	(0:06:00.16)
Sora : Hang on.	(0:06:01.92)
Sora : I can't play against some high-level computer!	(0:06:03.16)
Sora : Chess is a finite, two-player, zero-sum, perfect-information game.	(0:06:09.31)
Sora : There's absolutely no luck involved.	(0:06:14.03)
Sora : Theoretically, there is a perfect solution that will never lose.	(0:06:17.04)
Sora : But that's only if you understand the 10^120 possible states of the board!	(0:06:20.65)
Shiro : Chess is no different from tic-tac-toe.	(0:06:31.57)
Sora : That's right.	(0:06:38.81)
Sora : Shiro's scored 20 straight victories against computers designed to defeat grandmasters,	(0:06:40.65)
Sora : alternating between going first and second.	(0:06:44.78)
Sora : ... But...	(0:06:49.43)
Shiro : It blocked off its own piece?	(0:06:53.77)
Sora : Wait, Shiro.	(0:06:56.65)
Shiro : ...Brother...	(0:06:57.86)
Sora : A computer will always select the best move.	(0:06:59.09)
Sora : That's why you're able to beat them.	(0:07:01.72)
Sora : But they're deliberately playing poorly to lure you in.	(0:07:03.94)
Sora : It's a human.	(0:07:07.48)
Sora : Calm down.	(0:07:09.69)
Sora : In a game of skill, there's no way you'll lose.	(0:07:10.86)
Sora : I'll tell you when they're trying to spook you or lure you in.	(0:07:13.61)
Sora : The two of us, Sora and Shiro, form Blank together.	(0:07:15.91)
Sora : Let's see if there's somebody who can actually beat us.	(0:07:19.46)
EXTRA : Checkmate!	(0:07:31.75)
EXTRA : You are winner!	(0:07:33.43)
Sora : We won!	(0:07:39.05)
Shiro : It's been a long time since I've been pushed to the brink like this.	(0:07:40.76)
Shiro : Were they really human?	(0:07:43.75)
Sora : What?	(0:07:55.09)
Sora : What do we think?	(0:08:02.93)
Sora : We have no idea what the rules are, or what the goal is.	(0:08:06.25)
Sora : But there are 7 billion people making whichever moves they want.	(0:08:09.24)
Sora : There are penalties if you win or lose too much.	(0:08:13.33)
Sora : You can't skip your turn, and if you talk too much, you'll be ostracized.	(0:08:16.26)
Sora : There are no parameters and no way of telling the genre.	(0:08:21.47)
Shiro : This world is nothing more than a shitty game.	(0:08:25.93)
Sora : This world is nothing more than a shitty game.	(0:08:25.93)
Sora : Well, if there were a world like that, then we were born in the wrong world.	(0:08:39.29)
Sora : What's going on?	(0:08:52.17)
Shiro : ...Bro...	(0:08:54.15)
Teto : I agree!	(0:08:56.09)
Teto : You were definitely born in the wrong world!	(0:08:58.69)
Teto : ...So I'll let you be reborn...	(0:09:03.57)
Teto : in the world where you should've originally been born.	(0:09:07.38)
Teto : Welcome to my world!	(0:09:14.57)
Shiro : What the hell?!	(0:09:19.21)
Sora : What the hell?!	(0:09:19.21)
Teto : This is the world of your dreams.	(0:09:22.29)
Teto : The world of games: Disboard!	(0:09:25.46)
Teto : This world is dictated by simple games.	(0:09:29.57)
Teto : The outcome of people's lives, and even national borders, hinge on them.	(0:09:32.84)
Shiro : Who are you?	(0:09:36.47)
Teto : Me? I'm Tet.	(0:09:37.40)
Teto : I live over there.	(0:09:39.92)
Teto : I guess I'm the god here.	(0:09:41.46)
Shiro : A god?	(0:09:42.47)
Sora : Now's not the time!	(0:09:44.39)
Sora : What do we do about this?!	(0:09:45.60)
Teto : There are ten commandments in this world.	(0:09:46.73)
Teto : One: All murder, war, and robbery is forbidden.	(0:09:51.18)
Teto : Two: Any and all conflicts will be resolved through games.	(0:09:56.91)
Teto : Three: In those games, each player will wager something that is agreed to be of equal value.	(0:10:01.74)
Teto : Four: So long as it doesn't break the third rule, what you wager and how you play the game is up to you.	(0:10:07.63)
Teto : Five: The challenged party has the right to decide how the game is played.	(0:10:13.45)
Teto : Six: Any and all wagers made in accordance with these commandments must be upheld.	(0:10:18.39)
Teto : Seven: Whatever conflicts you have with another group will be conducted by	(0:10:23.26)
Teto : designated representatives with absolute authority.	(0:10:26.15)
Teto : Eight: If you're found cheating during a game, you will be disqualified and lose.	(0:10:28.77)
Teto : Nine: In the name of God, the previous rules may never be changed.	(0:10:33.52)
Sora : I told you, this isn't the time!	(0:10:38.65)
Sora : W-We're about to crash!	(0:10:40.91)
Shiro : Bro!	(0:10:43.33)
Sora : Shiro!	(0:10:44.06)
Teto : And ten: Remember to have fun with everyone else.	(0:10:59.39)
Sora : H-Hey!	(0:11:05.07)
Teto : I look forward to seeing you again.	(0:11:06.45)
Teto : I'm sure we'll meet again soon.	(0:11:09.77)
Shiro : ...Bro...	(0:11:16.91)
Shiro : Where are we?	(0:11:19.15)
Sora : ...Sis...	(0:11:43.25)
Sora : I've always thought that life was just ...an impossible game for masochists, but...	(0:11:46.06)
Sora : Now it's gone and hit a fatal bug!	(0:11:51.56)
Shiro : What's going on?	(0:11:53.54)
Sora : This is such a shitty game!	(0:11:55.81)
Shiro : This is such a shitty game!	(0:11:55.81)
EXTRA : Long ago, in the distant, distant past,	(0:12:00.57)
EXTRA : an eternal war had begun with the gods, along with their kin and creations,	(0:12:03.34)
EXTRA : to see who would rule the world as the One True God.	(0:12:08.26)
EXTRA : The long and terrible battle quickly ended with the death of the sky, sea, land, and stars.	(0:12:13.31)
EXTRA : The one deity who had not participated won by default, and took the title of One True God.	(0:12:22.93)
EXTRA : His name was Tet.	(0:12:33.27)
EXTRA : He was once known as the God of Play.	(0:12:35.37)
Teto : You creatures who fought this war with strength, violence, blood, and death.	(0:12:38.98)
Teto : You who built a tower of corpses as high as the sky itself and think of yourselves as wise,	(0:12:43.00)
Teto : answer me one question.	(0:12:46.88)
Teto : How are you different from these dumb beasts?	(0:12:48.10)
EXTRA : They had no excuses in their shattered world.	(0:12:51.07)
EXTRA : That is when God spoke.	(0:12:54.88)
EXTRA : "All murder, war, and robbery in this world is forbidden."	(0:12:56.94)
Teto : You sixteen races who think of yourselves as wise:	(0:13:01.54)
Teto : put that wisdom to use, along with your fortune and wealth,	(0:13:04.86)
Teto : and build me a tower that symbolizes it.	(0:13:08.90)
Teto : Show me just how wise you really are!	(0:13:10.62)
Sora : I see.	(0:13:14.23)
Sora : So that explains why there's a world that's dictated by games.	(0:13:15.56)
EXTRA : Exactly.	(0:13:20.15)
EXTRA : ...And also...	(0:13:21.34)
Sora : What?	(0:13:22.71)
EXTRA : Could you at least leave us a pair of pants?	(0:13:23.24)
Sora : Six: Any and all wagers made in accordance with these commandments must be upheld.	(0:13:27.20)
Sora : We wagered all that we could offer, including our lives,	(0:13:32.05)
Sora : and you wagered everything you own.	(0:13:35.26)
Sora : Isn't that right?	(0:13:37.68)
EXTRA : ...Yes, it is, but...	(0:13:38.26)
EXTRA : You can't leave us here like this!	(0:13:39.54)
Sora : Let's go, Shiro.	(0:13:42.16)
Shiro : Roger.	(0:13:42.78)
EXTRA : Wait! Kid!	(0:13:44.03)
EXTRA : At least let me punch you once!	(0:13:45.48)
Sora : Looks like even thieves can't rob or kill you.	(0:13:48.51)
Shiro : I don't think they can, no matter how bad they want to.	(0:13:53.30)
Sora : So basically... it all comes down to how good you are at the game.	(0:13:56.83)
Kurami Zell : Would you hurry up?	(0:14:11.11)
Stephanie Dola : Shut up already! I'm thinking!	(0:14:13.41)
Kurami Zell : Think all you want. It won't change your hand.	(0:14:17.93)
Sora : A gambling tournament to determine the next king?	(0:14:21.29)
EXTRA : It was the previous king's dying wish.	(0:14:24.30)
EXTRA : He wants the next king to be the best gambler there ever was.	(0:14:26.94)
Sora : So even the king is decided by playing games?	(0:14:32.09)
EXTRA : The red-haired girl is Stephanie Dola.	(0:14:35.03)
EXTRA : She's the granddaughter of the previous king.	(0:14:37.39)
EXTRA : But due to his will, she can't inherit the throne.	(0:14:40.02)
EXTRA : So she's here trying to win the tournament.	(0:14:42.68)
Sora : Shiro, are you okay?	(0:14:47.03)
Shiro : I'm fine.	(0:14:50.29)
EXTRA : What is it? Have you fallen for me?	(0:14:54.55)
Sora : Nah. I was just wondering if you were planning on entering.	(0:14:57.41)
EXTRA : Me? No way. This is all I need.	(0:15:00.96)
EXTRA : Besides... that Kurami girl is so powerful that most of the other players just dropped out.	(0:15:04.32)
Sora : So you're scared?	(0:15:12.72)
EXTRA : What?	(0:15:15.58)
Sora : Well, so long as you don't actually lose here, you can make up as many excuses as you'd like.	(0:15:16.64)
Sora : Like, "I would've actually beaten her, but I decided to let her go."	(0:15:22.86)
EXTRA : Interesting.	(0:15:27.49)
EXTRA : Down for a game, boy?	(0:15:29.65)
Sora : Sorry, but I don't play for fun.	(0:15:31.85)
Sora : How about for all your money?	(0:15:35.16)
EXTRA : What? Do you have any idea how much this is?!	(0:15:36.58)
EXTRA : Besides, we need to bet something that's of equal value.	(0:15:39.22)
Sora : The third commandment, right?	(0:15:43.46)
Sora : ...Fair enough...	(0:15:46.50)
Sora : How about doing whatever you want with the two of us, then?	(0:15:47.92)
Sora : You can sell us, abandon us, or do anything you'd like.	(0:15:50.63)
EXTRA : Seriously?	(0:15:53.16)
Shiro : Yes.	(0:15:55.27)
Sora : We'll play a single hand of poker.	(0:15:56.53)
Sora : How about it?	(0:15:58.84)
Sora : This is your chance to back out.	(0:16:00.55)
EXTRA : Don't get cocky, outsider.	(0:16:03.23)
EXTRA : I'm in.	(0:16:07.03)
EXTRA : I swear by the commandments.	(0:16:10.17)
Sora : I swear by the commandments.	(0:16:12.33)
Sora : Aschente!	(0:16:16.45)
EXTRA : Aschente!	(0:16:16.45)
EXTRA : He's just some brat from the backwoods who has more confidence than sense.	(0:16:23.27)
EXTRA : That bluff might work in your little village,	(0:16:28.00)
EXTRA : but it won't work here.	(0:16:31.00)
Shiro : ...Bro...	(0:16:37.35)
EXTRA : Aw. Bad hand? Sucks to be you.	(0:16:41.09)
Sora : Guess so. I started today off with a 10,000 meter skydive,	(0:16:44.31)
Sora : then had to walk however long under the blazing sun.	(0:16:49.64)
Sora : Today's definitely not my day.	(0:16:51.64)
EXTRA : What are you talking about?	(0:16:53.07)
Sora : Nothing.	(0:16:54.77)
Sora : Ready to show?	(0:16:55.96)
EXTRA : Of course.	(0:16:58.63)
EXTRA : I'll even give you another chance to exchange your cards.	(0:17:00.38)
Sora : I'm fine.	(0:17:04.00)
EXTRA : Yeah?	(0:17:05.34)
EXTRA : ...Well, then...	(0:17:06.21)
EXTRA : Sorry, boy.	(0:17:07.96)
EXTRA : Full house!	(0:17:10.05)
Sora : Oh, yeah.	(0:17:12.05)
Sora : "Sorry" is right.	(0:17:13.46)
EXTRA : ...A...	(0:17:19.17)
EXTRA : ...A royal...	(0:17:20.64)
EXTRA : ...S-Straight...	(0:17:22.43)
EXTRA : F-Flush?!	(0:17:26.69)
EXTRA : No! There's no way!	(0:17:28.64)
Sora : Take a good look. It's real.	(0:17:31.65)
EXTRA : There's no way! There's only ...a 1 in 6,150,000 chance...	(0:17:33.28)
Sora : And that's what just happened.	(0:17:36.14)
EXTRA : ...But...	(0:17:38.68)
Sora : The sixth commandment.	(0:17:39.42)
Sora : Any and all wagers must be upheld.	(0:17:40.83)
Sora : Isn't that right?	(0:17:42.98)
EXTRA : Wh... Who the hell are you?	(0:17:44.43)
Sora : No one important. Just an outsider.	(0:17:49.41)
Shiro : ...You cheated, Bro...	(0:18:01.13)
Shiro : It was very obvious too.	(0:18:03.18)
Sora : The eighth commandment: If you're found cheating during a game, you will be disqualified and lose.	(0:18:06.01)
Sora : Basically, if you're not caught, it's okay.	(0:18:11.55)
Shiro : How much did you win?	(0:18:14.11)
Sora : No idea.	(0:18:16.10)
Sora : Just leave it to me, though.	(0:18:17.61)
Sora : I'm a natural at negotiating.	(0:18:19.66)
Sora : I'll take a room for two.	(0:18:23.01)
Sora : One bed is fine.	(0:18:24.12)
Sora : How many nights is this worth?	(0:18:26.22)
EXTRA : One night.	(0:18:28.71)
Sora : I'm exhausted, man.	(0:18:30.54)
Sora : Why don't you tell me how many nights I can really stay?	(0:18:32.18)
Sora : If you're going to cheat someone,	(0:18:36.09)
Sora : then you should pay more attention to your tone and where you're looking.	(0:18:37.88)
EXTRA : Two nights.	(0:18:41.85)
Sora : There you go again!	(0:18:42.72)
Sora : Here's some advice.	(0:18:45.75)
Sora : Think very carefully about who you lie to, okay?	(0:18:47.61)
Sora : Okay, four nights. Thanks.	(0:18:53.15)
EXTRA : What's your name?	(0:18:55.50)
Sora : Just leave it blank.	(0:19:00.01)
Sora : Sorry for the wait, Shiro.	(0:19:04.45)
Shiro : She's going to lose.	(0:19:06.61)
Sora : Of course she will.	(0:19:08.85)
Sora : She wouldn't know what a ...poker face was even if it came—	(0:19:10.70)
Sora : She's cheating?	(0:19:15.33)
Shiro : ...She is, but...	(0:19:16.54)
Shiro : I can't tell how.	(0:19:20.81)
