My Fair Prince (Prince of Push / Oshi no Ojisama / 推しの王子様)

Shut down "Love My Pegasus"?

If you were to become affiliated with our company,

we would like for you to quickly retract your hands from the unprofitable,

and use that excess budget on other services.

We've begun to hold meetings to discuss our game plans.

I want to somehow make my employee's proposals a reality.

Can you promise that you will absolutely consider each and every one of those proposals?

Of course.

"Love My Pegasus" will end services next month.

Will you continue to stay by my side?

Of course I will.

Once again, I welcome Mr. Kojima, from Lantern Holdings.

He will act as our executive manager, and will work closely alongside us on this project.

Following this M&A, we plan to strengthen our organization, and intend to put forth our best effort.

I look forward to working with everyone.

As will we.

On that note, we are currently remodeling an office space in the Lantern main building.

It should be ready by next week. Please prepare for the move. - Understood.

Pay no mind to the deadline, and bring your proposals to me as they're completed.

Let's turn them in, one after the other. - Yes ma'am.

We look forward to it.

Thank you for your hard work. - No, thank you.

Micchi...

We're... not in the wrong, are we?

Why, did something happen?

No... I mean, it's not like I'm worried, but...

I start to mull on how everyone feels about becoming affiliated...

The goal was to have everyone's proposals become a reality, right?

This gives us the opportunity to work on previously impossible, large scale projects.

It's a good deal for everyone.

You're right.

Izumi-chan, don't hesitate to rely on me.

It's our company, so I'll think it through with you.

Thank you.

Hey, how about we hold a farewell party for the office? To celebrate our new start.

That's a wonderful idea, let's do it!

Cheers!

It's been a while since we've partied like this!

We often use to drink after working overtime.

Mei-san once drank an energy drink, then strong alcohol, and then suddenly fainted!

Right! She was hard to nurse back to health! - Stop it! Stop dredging up the past!

How nostalgic...

We've only got a bit more time left working in this office...

By the way, why is our company named, "Pegasus"?

There were several reasons, but I hoped our company would take flight, and make great strides.

On top of that, the word "Pegasus" derives from the Greek word, "spring" or "well", like the Japanese word, "Izumi". Perfect, no?

You learn something new.

They also say he was the symbol of "cultivation" and "fame".

Speaking of "cultivation", Wataru-kun, you use to be a real piece of work.

True! He couldn't even speak politely... - Exactly that!

When I asked him to copy some documents, he was burning them over the stove...

I'm terribly sorry! I appreciate your efforts.

Now then everyone, let's eat.

Izumi-chan, would you like some wine? Red? - Yes, thank you.

Seems they've started dating.

Izumi-san and Mitsui-san, that is.

Is that so.

I accidentally overheard the other day.

Izumi-chan, can I drop by later today? It'll be a bit late though...

Sure, I'll be waiting.

Well, I think they make a good fit.

Alice-san... are you fine with things the way they are?

I think I told you before but... I have no intention of confessing my feelings.

Then... Alice-san, you'll remain stagnant.

Isn't that too painful?

I don't want to trouble the one I love.

Even more so if they seem happy.

What happened? You should have contacted me...

Sorry for suddenly visiting.

I see you're drunk.

Just a bit. Drank a little at the company.

I see... How unusual. Want some water?

Thanks.

Is something wrong?

No... not really.

Am I... really where I want to be right now?

See? Look, look! - It's over there!

Found it, found it!

It's so spacious! - Isn't it double our previous space?

Guys! The cafeteria's wild!

Why'd you head to the cafeteria first? - Because! Wouldn't you be curious?

So? How was it? - So fashionable! And it's all you can eat! For free!

For free? - Amazing! How luxurious...

Leave it to Lantern Holdings...

As for the new projects, we're thinking of choosing Watanabe-san, Arisugawa-san, and Igarashi-san's games.

Thank you very much.

Please move forward in production on these titles.

Understood. We'll get to work on them right away.

I have a proposal for everyone.

I've heard that recently, console games are becoming all the rage once more.

On that note, I'd like to expand outside the mobile game market, and create a console game.

That's amazing. However, console games require higher quality on all bases to match the console's hardware.

For that to be achievable, the budget will be on a different magnitude -

Isn't that why you became affiliated with our company?

Previously, you may have held back on such big projects due to budget. However, now they've become feasible.

What do you think, President Hidaka?

Y-Yes, of course. Thank you very much.

Among these... I think Igarashi-kun's, "Galactic Labyrinth" is most suitable.

A sci-fi fantasy has promise for a grand story.

Agreed. I'll meet with Igarashi, and rethink this game to become a console title.

President Hidaka, we ask that you prioritize the organization of your business plans.

You can leave the actual production side of things to Mitsui-san, can you not?

Y-Yes.

This moment is absolutely crucial for development, President Hidaka.

Moving forwards, I'd like for you to focus on the growth of your company.

Understood.

A console game?! - For real?!

Amazing! - Wataru-kun, let's further polish your proposal.

Yessir. Thank you very much.

Mei-chan and Alice's proposals have also been accepted, and they'd like for you to develop them as mobile games.

Understood. - Thank you very much!

I'm so glad we became affiliated with Lantern!

To think we'd be creating a console game...

Speaking of, where is Izumi-san?

She's currently organizing business plans.

That's just as important, isn't it?

She probably won't be able to pop into the studio as often.

Regardless, let's make sure to concentrate on production. - Yessir.

Yes, come in.

Pardon me.

I give my sincere gratitude in regards to the console game.

It seems a bit like a dream, and I can't believe it but... I'll do my best to make it a reality.

I'll make sure to support your efforts wholeheartedly.

I'll send the proposed amendments as soon as they're finished. I'm sure you're busy Izumi-san, but I'd appreciate any advice.

I understand. I look forward to it.

On that note... this office is amazing. It's pretty grand.

I tried telling them I didn't need it...

How is everyone else? Are they struggling with any changes?

Let's see... Nothing in particular at the moment.

I see.

Is Anna-chan in good health?

Yes, she is.

Next year, she'll be joining our company. Give her my regards. - Yes ma'am.

Then, if you'll excuse me.

Here's what I think should be our next sales goals and budget…

I think it's appropriate. That's how much you should raise the bar, so it'll encourage our employees.

Then I'll move forward with these finalizations. - Alright.

I'm sorry... you came all this way, yet all we talk about is work...

That's nothing new, is it?

Yes, but... I'm sure you'd want to relax once you're out of the office, Micchi...

Want to drink?

No, I'll head home soon. I want to study up on console games. - Oh, right.

Izumi-chan, concentrate on work you hear?

Will do.

A collaboration?

We were able to secure a collaboration with Tomioka Bread.

They'd like for you to create a mini game using, "Crossing the Forest of Love".

However, we've been busy at work with the console game, as well as the other new games -

Of course, please continue work on those as you have been. This can be...

quickly created using assets already on hand, correct?

New games take anywhere between one to two years to create.

However, as a company, you must make short-term revenue. You understand, don't you?

If you increase your earnings through the collaboration, you will have more budget for new games.

I think this is a valuable opportunity for your company.

A... collaboration? - Could you guys accept?

But we've always rejected collaboration offers...

Right? We didn't want to destroy the in-game world building...

Plus, they expect us to complete it so quickly...

I feel terrible, pushing it onto you guys while you're so busy. However, it'll increase our budget for the next game...

Got it. We can use the backgrounds from "LoveForest", and make it work.

Let's use the character Mari-chan created for the contest. - Y-Yessir.

Well, if Izumi-san pushes for it...

They're letting us create games on a grander scale, so let's do our best on this collaboration as well!

Alright! Let's show them the power of Pegasus Inc.!

Your enthusiasm's accelerating a bit too fast there.

Everyone, I'm sure it'll be rough, but let's put our all into it.

Yessir!

Thank you, and good luck.

Izumi-chan, lately… it feels as though you're not having fun with otome games in general.

Hello? - Micchi? Where are you right now?

I'm currently on my way to Ikewaki Productions.

Oh right, you had a meeting tonight.

Is something the matter?

No, I'm fine.

Want me to head over once I'm finished?

No need to worry. Thanks for working hard, so late at night.

Alright. Then I'll see you tomorrow at the company.

Yes. See you.

"What did I even like about otome games?"... I don't know what to do anymore.

It's painful...

I will now be presenting our sponsor's feedback on the collaboration proposed last week.

We look forward to hearing it.

They approved of the direction it's heading in.

So there's just one amendment... it's about the product name...

Could you make it slightly larger?

I think it's already quite large -

Let's make it just a big larger! - However, wouldn't that come closer to an advertisement?

Well, it is a "collaboration".

In addition, there's a voice actor we wish to hire.

What? Even though we haven't finalized the specifics of the story...?

Actually, it seems the sponsor's President's wife is a big fan of this voice actor named, "Shun Sawamura", and -

That's an unreasonable - - Yes, I understand! Really, I do!

I understand I'm being unreasonable.

But adding in one voice actor should be fine, right?

Nojima-san, though I understand this is a "collaboration",

it is a part of "Crossing Through the Forest of Love". Thus, we must maintain it's world building, and -

I understand the feelings of the creators.

However, are you alright with letting this job slip away over the smallest details?

They're not small - - Anyways, if you lose this job, it will be a huge loss.

Understood. We will discuss these amendments with an open mind.
