Zaboru sat in his office, eagerly waiting for the latest ZAGE advertisent to air. This wasn't just any ad—it was another statent to Sonaya, a reminder that ZAGE could push out six high-quality gas every month, not even counting third-party developers. He smirked, thinking about how this would further frustrate Sonaya's executives. Every detail of the ad had been ticulously planned, from the gas showcased to the explosive soundtrack accompanying it he asked YaDo Animation to make this too.
'Take that, Sonaya. Let's see if you're sturdy enough to keep up with ZAGE,' he thought with a wicked chuckle. He leaned back in his chair, glancing at the clock. Just ten more minutes until it aired. The anticipation coursed through him like electricity. He had personally overseen the editing and final cut of the ad, ensuring that it had the perfect impact, there also ZAGE employees that were waiting for their ads to air with their boss!.
anwhile, at Sonaya HQ in Japan, Hikaru Kurata sat in his lavish office, sipping a glass of wine while reviewing Sonaya's progress. Just monts ago, he had fired Kazuha Nakata for incompetence, replacing him temporarily with Makoto, Sonaya's head engineer. While Makoto was excellent at organizing and refining ga production, he lacked vision and creativity. The upcoming April releases—Thunder Warrior, Boorang Man, and Bam A Mole—had been greenlit and were set to launch on April 30. Hikaru was cautiously optimistic. He wanted to believe Sonaya was catching up, that they had figured out a way to fight back against ZAGE's aggressive strategy.
He swirled his wine, muttering to himself. 'ZAGE probably won't release as many gas this month. They threw out six last month just to slow down MGB's Release montum. This ti, they'll manage three or four at most. If that's the case, then we can compete with them.' He allowed himself a smug smirk, already thinking of ways to counterattack.
Just as he was about to take another sip, the clock struck 18:00. The TV screen he had been absentmindedly watching flickered. The familiar sound of SHIING—ZAGE logo burst onto the screen, illuminating the room. Hikaru's brow twitched.
'Heh, ZAGE's April release ad? Let's see what you've got this ti, Zaboru.' He leaned forward, ready to analyze every fra.
The ad began with Zaboru himself, donned in his iconic Z helt, standing confidently against a bold backdrop. The unmistakable opening riff of a rock anthem blasted through the speakers. The energy was infectious. "Hello, everyone! Miss already?! Now, let's show you what we have to offer this April! GO!"
The screen exploded into motion, shifting to six upcoming titles in perfect sync with the energetic beat. (Read the lyrics first , then the scene followed)
We are Fighting Drears
Takami o zashite Fighting Drears
Narifurikamawazu Fighting Drears
Shinjiruga mama ni
Oli Oli Oli Oh! Just go my way!
Each beat aligned with a new ga reveals—flashes of ga Man 2, Tetris, and Base Wars showcasing their refined gaplay, vibrant graphics, and thrilling chanics. The screen zood in on ga Man mid-air, unleashing a charged shot, followed by a rotating showcase of Tetris block formations, perfectly clearing a row, then transitioning into a dramatic slow-motion exaggerated ho run that exceeded the planet in Base Wars.
Right here, right now (Bang!)
Buhhanase like a dangan liner!
Right here Right now (Burn!)
The ad cut to the dynamic gaplay of Koro-Cool, Aladdin, and Phantasy Star, each title bursting with its own distinct the and playstyle. Koro-Cool's energetic platforming slashing enemies with his arm like weapons Aladdin's action sequences displayed a daring leap between rooftops, sword flashing in the golden sunset. Phantasy Star's battle system showed an epic turn-based fight against a massive alien warlord.
Kewashī shura no michinonaka hito no
Chizu o hirogete doko e iku?
Gokusaishoku no karasu ga sore o
Ubaitotte yaburisuteta
The cara cut to an unexpected but hilarious scene—ZAGE's plenty of iconic characters in their 8 bit sprites dancing in unison, all holding up six fingers the screen filled with them. SpongeBob, gaman, Mario, Sonic, Bill Rizer, Z-Red, Little Mac ,Cody, Samus, Donkey Kong,Excitebike guy ,Snake, Pac-man, Ryu Hayabusa , Akechi , Hang-on guy, Alex Kidd , Simon Belmont , Link , Hero from Dragon Quest , Warrior from Final fantasy and of course, Zaboru himself. Their exaggerated moves and synced rhythm made the mont both ridiculous and unforgettable.
We are Fighting Drears
Takami o zashite Fighting Drears
Narifurikamawazu Fighting Drears
Shinjiruga mama ni
Oli Oli Oli Oh! Just go my way!
The energy kept building as rapid gaplay clips flew across the screen, culminating in bold flashing text:
ZAGE WILL RELEASE SIX GAS THIS MONTH! WHO WOULD EXPECT?!
Then another ssage appeared:
NEW PROMO: BUY ALL SIX GAS ON LAUNCH DAY, APRIL 26, 1992, AND GET A 20% DISCOUNT!
The screen faded to black, but just as Hikaru thought it was over, a final shot appeared—Zaboru moved his Helt very close to the cara directly at the cara he said. "You can still keep up BEEP ?" he asked, voice dripping with confidence everyone definitely knows what censored words an! it's definitely directed at MGB!. The screen cut to the ZAGE logo one last ti before fading out completely.
Hikaru Kurata's forehead twitched, veins bulging. He clenched his wine glass so hard that it nearly cracked. 'DAMN YOU, ZABORU! Are you mocking ?! And why do ZAGE's ads always have such good music?!' His rage boiled over as he slamd his fist against the desk. 'How the hell are they making six gas a month?! This is insane!'
He inhaled deeply, trying to calm himself, but his mind raced with frustration and paranoia. 'I need to know their secret. I need to find out how they're pulling this off!'
With a sharp exhale, he set his glass down and stood up, his mind already formulating a plan. Whatever ZAGE was doing, he would uncover it—no matter what it took.
anwhile, at a bustling electronics store in downtown Tokyo, custors erupted into cheers as they watched the ad air live. So imdiately rushed to place pre-orders, while others chanted "ZAGE! ZAGE! ZAGE!" in excitent. ZAGE had once again stolen the show, and no one could deny that they were setting the standard for gaming.
To be continued.
