Hey, you. Can you see us?
Why won't you answer? I'm asking you a question. Yes, you on the other side of the monitor.
Hmph. Your silence only strengthens my hypothesis.
I suppose that, from your perspective, it appears that we are the ones inside the monitor. Heh heh heh, but that's where you're wrong!
For it is you who are inside! Your reality is nothing but lies and shadows. Naturally, that includes you, too.
True reality is on this side of the screen.
Don't believe me? I don't want blame you. Few are those who can handle the truth.
But no matter. I shall speak in simpler terms, easy enough for even you to understand.
This is the Future Gadget Laboratory, located in Akihabara district of Tokyo. We call it simply... the lab. Our purpose is to shatter the System and plunge the world into chaos.

Really? You shouldn't do bad things, Okarin.

Quiet, I'm mad scientist, remember?
From the station, head down Chuo-dori until you reach Suehirocho Station, then take a left onto Kuramaebashi-dori. In the alley before the traffic light, you'll find the run-down Ohiyama building. The lab is on the second floor.
On the first floor is a store of ill repture called the Braun Tube Workshop. You can't miss it.
It deals exclusively in CRT monitors, of all things. Can you imagine? Even in the heart of Akihabara's Electric Town, the demand of CRTs practically nonexistent.
But the proprietor of the Braun Tube Workshop, Tennouji, is also the owner of the building. That's how he can afford to maintain his ridiculously niche hobby shop even as land value continues to rise.
He may seem a rough sort, but he was no match for my charisma. Now the entire second floor is mine for next to nothing. Muhahaha!
I digress. The Future Gadget Laboratory is currently experiencing a severe shortage of manpower. We welcome dedicated scientists from all fields to apply. At present, our researchers are--

Okarin, Okarin. You've gotta say 'lab mems', not researchers.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

... Our lab mems -- laboratory members -- are three!
I am the founder of the Future Gadget Lab, Lab Mem Number 001, the insane mad scientist, Hououin Kyouma!

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

Okarin' is cuter, though...

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

Next, we have our resident cosplayer and only female member, Lab Mem Number 002, Shiina Mayuri.

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

Tutturu♪ Call me Mayushii! I like making costumes more than wearing them.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

And last, we have our resident super hacka , Lab Mem Number 003, Hashida Itaru.

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Stop calling me that! It's super hacker, duh.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

Here at the Future Gadget Laboratory, we devote ourselves to the art of invention!
For details, see our lab's homepage.
Our top priority, of course, is to develop weapons for the war with the Dark Dominion, but that research has spawned a number of offshoot inventions. In fact, that's all it's spawned.
Our arsenal of Future Gadgets is up to eight, but this is just the beginning. I have a total of 108 inventions to create!

Like in that tennis manga, right? I get it.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

No! It's number of earthly desires in mortals, you @channel junkie.
And I thought I told you not interrupt me when I'm talking!

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Yeah, wouldn't want to interrupt you talking to yourself.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

I'm not talking to myself. Can't you see? I'm talking to the person behind the monitor.

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

Ah, he just grinned!

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

What are you grinning about, damn you!? You don't even exist outside that monitor!

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Just say 'don't look at me'.

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

I don't think that's gonna work...

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

It appears out attempts to communicate have failed. It's sad to see someone so deeply in denial of reality.

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

Maybe they think we're in the game?

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

I doubt it's even occurred to them.

Originalmente postado por Mayuri:

But aren't your 2D girlfriends the same way?

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Thats different. Those girls are my wives.

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

Nobody cares about your harem.

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

But Mayushii touched upon a very interesting theme, ya know? What if we're actually just characters in a game? Any way we can know for sure?

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

No.

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Come on!

Originalmente postado por Hououin Kyouma:

Such questions are meaningless. Our time is better spent thinking of ways to destroy the System.

Originalmente postado por Itaru:

Nice chuunibyou, bro.
