Trapped!

Good evening, folks. It’s Takenaka, the programmer.

This week, I had the opportunity to drive a cart. It had been quite a long time since the last time.
After a little while driving, I experienced the “understeer through low arm strength.” I realized the decline of my strength or aging. I became deflated.

* “Understeer through low arm strength”
The state where the arm strength is too low to turn the wheel…therefore the car cannot be turned as well.
Well, did you guys check out the "Special Contents" in the Wangan Maxi 3DX web pages?
Yup, guys who are familiar somewhere are dressed in costumes and doing something. (laughs)

No, no, I was trapped by Director Yamamoto. (LOL)
TRAPPED!
Dir. Yamamoto :
I’d like to create a special contents page.
Would you help me? Takenaka :
Sure.
That hasty commitment was wrong, in the first place.

I entered the meeting room as promised.
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, let’s get to work. Wear this school uniform, please.
Takenaka:
Wwwhere did you get this stuff?
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, borrowed from the costume player in the office.
Takenaka :
Well…then, what about this table cloth?
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, that’s a substitute for bleached cotton.
Wrap it around your waist.
Takenaka:
Uh? What’s this black French roll?
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, that’s for a pompadour. Put it on your head.

Like this, while I was looking on in blank amazement, I was quickly transformed into “an outdated school gang leader.”
Now in the 21st Century, that creature might be an extinct species. (laughs)
Then, next to me, Director Takahashi was transformed into a student, the same as I experienced. (LOOOL!)

Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, would you distress yourself?
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, would you yell out?
Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, would you do a victory pose with all your might?

So, at this rapid speed, the shooting proceeded as he told us what to do, and Takenaka and his co-worker made various poses doing their best “for our sweet junior fellow.”

Dir. Yamamoto :
Oh, thank you for your cooperation.
I’ll finish up the rest of them properly.
Takenaka :
Oh, really? Good luck then.

That day ended like this.
But later, I was so surprised at the finished web pages!
What the heck!? (surprised)

Although I was surprised at that “great outcome,” it’s too late.
Female staff members within the company were making sardonic smiles.
And, my friends rapped me on the knuckles saying “Work seriously!”
In various places, I became extraordinarily popular for this act.

Since I’d been completely messed around this far, I’m, like, beaten hollow by Director Yamamoto and the members who were in charge of designing those web pages. I gave in!

Through things like this, even Takenaka’s been risking his life. (laughs)
So, we appreciate your continued support for the Wangan Maxi pages. (beg)

See you next time!
