Keep it classy. Endorse nothing.

>>21581196
>Endorse nothing. We're here to raise the bar of the World Warrior Tournament, not get rich.
If we are to endorse anything it should be carefully considered and not too extravagant. As long as we're making enough to live comfortably and, maybe, have some emergency cash we should be fine.

>>21581196
We will not endorse jack shit. If anything, they should be lining up to pay us so we let them endorse US.

"I would prefer not to," you say. "Or if I do, maybe one or two carefully selected endorsements."

"You...look, we need to be realistic about this," Jen says. She sighs and rubs her temple. "Viewership is down. Way down. In the last twenty-five years dozens of rival tournaments have opened, draining away our ad money and some top-tier fighters. Every year the prize money and respect goes down, so we get flooded with terrible fighters like Tha Hatchetman. In turn this drives down our respect and viewership, in kind of a vicious cycle."

"I already knew that," you say. "That's why I'm trying to be a better class of fighter. Inspire people again, make them pay attention."

"That's all well and good, and for all we know it'll pay off in ten years, or maybe five if we're lucky," she says. "But this isn't like the old days where the whole thing was bankrolled by a delusional millionaire every year for some reason. As far as the organization is concerned, they have an obligation to their shareholders to make a profit."

"That's not my-"

"And that's where Erich comes in," she says. "He was handsome, charismatic, and a complete sellout. That's why his face is on everything, absolutely everything, and a cut of his profits is flowing back to the World Warrior Tournament."

"And making all of us look like a joke by association," you say. "That's why they're losing respect by the year."

"That's not how they see it. How the organizers see it - how the people in charge of the rules see it - is they're setting up a match between someone who will make them millions of dollars and someone who will let the brand languish for a year. They're going to try to screw you on something. A technicality, something obscure and stupid, some rule that nobody understands."

If shit with the World Warrior tournament goes south we can open our own tournament. With black jack. And hookers.

Fighters gonna fight. Hater's gonna hate. We're going to win this and if the organization cannot handle the fact that the best fighter continues...

This is very simple. We just have to beat him SO BAD there is not a single doubt left in anyone's mind over who really won. Crushing, overwhelming, absolutely ridiculous victory. The kind that even if he gets handed the win by judges, his face will be a mess and his reputation a piece of crap. The kind of victory that trascends judges, marketing and shareholders, just because it was such a steamroll that they have no clue but to acknowledge you as the winner or face a riot when they screw you over and you move to a rival organization.

"I'm not sure they'd actually do that," you say.

"Really? Look at where we are. You fought The Otaku and immediately got on a plane to Germany. When we land you're going to have two hours before you fight Erich. Do you know what he's doing right now?"

"Having his hair done?" you ask.

"He's spent the last two weeks recuperating from his last fight and training. He's going to be at the peak of his game. The tournament's already trying to screw you."

"...well, if it happens, it happens," you say. "I'm trying to bring something back to the tournament it lost a long time ago. I won't compromise now."

"...argh, fine," she says. She founds frustrated, but you can see the hint of a smile as she puts the forms back in her briefcase. "I'm going to let you try to get some sleep. This guy won the tournament legitimately back when it was full of heavy hitters. He's gone a bit soft, but you're still gonna need all the rest you can get."

You fall into a restless sleep.

You find yourself in a Japanese restaurant, one of those ones where there's a little grill in the middle of the table and you put meat on it. All around you there's the chatter of friends meeting up for food and soft jazz filling the air. The heat of the grill feels wonderful after the brisk air in the walk to get here. It's a relaxed atmosphere, practically heaven on Earth. You always wanted to try one of these places, but your stay in Japan was so short all you had time to do was fight and then get back on the plane.

You pick up a hamburger with some chopsticks and move it onto the grill. You're pretty sure this isn't how this is done in real life, but screw it, it's not like you've been to one of these places.

"That's bad for your health, you know," Segata Sanshiro says. You look up to see your spirit guide seated across from you, scowling with his arms folded.

"Hey, Segata," you say.

And they're like fifty bucks on Amazon and I have trouble getting packages delivered to my apartment so I'd have to get it sent to Pete's dojo and explain that my spirit guide is Segata Sanshiro and that just makes me look crazy."

His scowl deepends.

"But, hey, some Saturn games have been coming out for other systems! Jet Set Radio just came out on Xbox Live!"

"That's a Dreamcast game!" he shouts. In Japanese? For some reason you see it subtitled.

"O-okay. I'll doublecheck, maybe they've got something else," you say. "Do you want something to eat while we're here?" You pick up the burger and offer it to him. He slaps it out of your hand.

"What do you plan to do for the final battle?" he asks.

"Hit Erich a lot. Preferably in the face," you say. "If that doesn't take I'll just keep doing it until it does. I've fought tougher men."

"What about this whole rule thing? And the fact you'll be tired?"

"I respect that," he says. "There's something else you can do, though."

"Oh?" you say.

"Beat him. Beat him so badly that everyone who sees him for months afterwards knows it was your sticks that did it. You may lose the title, but the people will know. Your public."

"Thanks," you say, grinning despite yourself. "When you put it that way, I can still win. Still, I was hoping you were going to show me some new move I could use to win. Like that thing where you throw someone and they explode."

"I can only awaken judo knowledge you already have," he says. "And you never paid any attention in class."

"Seriously? What else was I up to?" you ask.

"You were just starting to notice girls. And you had a Digimon."

"...oh, shit, I forgot about those! I wonder if..."

He produces a pair of them from out of nowhere. The old-school ones you had to raise and then you stuck them together to fight.

You are Boss Honda, knight errant of the wastelands of Idaho. Once again your traveling companions have left you - the woman found the enlightenment she was looking for, the man went chasing a street turkey and apparently got turned around and headed for Montana. It doesn't matter. You can see your goal from here.

The skies of Idaho are a swirling lightshow this close to Boise, like the Aurora Borealis firing nonstop, radiating outward from the city. As you ride your horse on an abandoned highway, passing empty and abandoned cars all the while, you watch the swirling patterns of the early morning sky.

Maybe this is just who he's meant to be, you think to yourself as you watch him hustle to the bus.

You head back inside, your heart heavy. You just want him to grow up and be successful. He has so much talent - could grow to be so many things - but all he does is play around on the internet and spend all his money on anime.

Actually, it looks like he left a DVD in the living room. He never watches anime in the living room...and this is volume one of the series. Is this his way of reaching out? An invitation, maybe? You pour yourself a tumbler of whiskey and settle down to see what he sees in this show.

You make it to downtown Boise faster than you expected. It took some doing to figure out the highway, but you're on your way now. The light is more intense here, bathing everything in an eerie glow that flickers between blue and green. It's a little like what being underwater must feel like.

You've made it to downtown proper, riding past abandoned restaurants, businesses...there's even sign of a little human activity on the day they must have abandoned the city. You have yet to see any sign of a person, though, living or dead.

A few blocks ahead you finally see a figure. It's a little hard to tell through the bright light surrounding it, but it may be the old man.

You dismount from the horse and walk the last block on foot. There's so much you want to say, so much you're afraid the old man might say. And he'd be right to.

As you get closer you can see him sitting in the lotus position, eyes glowing completely white. The chi radiating from him is intense, but not oppressive. It's...sad, maybe? Tinged with melancholy. He doesn't even seem to notice once you're close to speak.

You think it over some more, before finally opting to tap him on the shoulder.

"Hey. No ticket, no ride."

The old man blinks a few times, the glowing haze disappearing from his eyes. When he sees you he breaks into a smile, tears streaming from his eyes. You put out a hand to help him to his feet before he wraps you in a hug. He's so frail it's like being hugged by a praying mantis.

"I'm sorry I left the way I did," you say. "I fucked up. I'm just here to say sorry."

"Don't be sorry. I'm just grateful you found your way back," he says.

"...yeah. Thanks for leaving me a signal to find you," you say, patting him on the back.

"I can see that," you say. "Look, digimon, I love you. If I'm hard on you it's because I see so much potential in you. Doing this kind of nerd stuff is fun, but it's not all you can do in life, you know?"

"Yeah, I know," he mumbles. He's already pulling himself away a bit.

"And then he threw me and knocked me out," you say. The old man laughs his head off at that.

"I'm sorry you lost, but it sounds like you made a friend out of an enemy. That's a gift more precious than any title," he says.

"Yeah," you say, "I'm just glad he snapped me out of the whole evil thing. It gave me powers, but it was kinda making me crazy."

"Well, that's why people tend to give in to evil powers in the first place," the old man says. He looks up at the sky, starting to turn the proper shade of blue for the first time in a long while. "In any case, I'm glad you're past it."

"You know, I didn't officially finish my training," you say.

"Hm." The old man looks thoughtful. "Tell you what, it's up to you. Do you want to stay here in Idaho and help the karate hobos and LARPers adventure, or do you want to ride the rails together?

You are an old man now. Very old, in fact.

Your digimon may have worried you in high school, but with your love and support he grew to become a fine young digimon. He entered a prestigious college (because they had a great anime club, he said), joined an up-and-coming tech company on the ground floor (so he could get sent to Japan when they expanded their business), even married a cosplayer he met in Akibahara while she was dressed as a Naruto character and he was dressed as Captain Harlock. You may not have always understood his life choices, but your digimon always knew that you'd be supporting him no matter what comes.

Now, so many years later, you feel the end approaching. Your granddigimon frolick around your feet as your digimon sits beside you, holding your frail hand in his weird little nubby paw things.

"I can feel it coming," you say. "The end."

"Dad, don't say that," the digimon says. "Sayaka and I have another child on the way, you're going to hold your next granddigimon in your arms."

"No, no," you say. "I just needed you to know, I've always been proud of you."

"D-dad!" he cries, tears welling up in his little pixellated eyes.

"Don't cry, digimon. I'll always be watching you. I'm sorry if I didn't understand at first, but this is just who you have to be."

He reaches out and hugs you with his nubby little arms. As your breath fades in your chest, you see a bright light. You think it's the end.

Wait, he just evolved.

Finally! Fucking finally!

"WE FIGHT!" Segata Sanshiro shouts. You push your digimon forward and line up the metal bits. It is ON.

Segata Sanshiromon attempts a judo grab, only to be shrugged off as Businessmon checks his watch. He's very late for an important meeting! As he turns to leave his briefcase knocks into Sanshiromon, knocking it out cold.

Back in reality - or what passes for it - Segata Sanshiro smiles and nods sagely.

"What was that? Was I supposed to learn some sort of lesson from that?" you ask. "That went nowhere and it took forever."

"Sometimes that's the lesson," Segata says.

You snap out of the dream. Jen is shaking you awake.

"You ready to go? We're fighting him on the runway, they think it'll look cool. As soon as you're off the plane you've got to fight."

>Anything we want to do or say last minute?

SEGA SATURN! SHIRO!

Rolled 15

Can I get a soda real quick?

Need to wake up a bit

>>21583466
Segata Sanshiro! THIS IS FOR YOU!

>>21583466
Nod. "Looks like they really don't want me to win this."

>>21583497
Better coffee or tea. Carbonated drinks before physical activities are a bad idea.

>>21583466
No matter what, we've got to be who we know we must be.

>>21583466
Tell her to find us a Sega Saturn.

"Can I get some coffee or something first?" you ask. Jen nods and motions for one of the flight attendants. He returns in a moment with some swill in a styrofoam cup. You gulp it down, it's the best you can do at the moment.

"Alright, anything else?" Jen asks.

"They really don't want me to win this, huh?" you ask.

"You've already won it. Rebecca Lane and The Otaku are already confirmed to come back next year. And you should see some of the new fighters that have been signing up. Real ones this time."

"Yeah? No more rapping clowns?"

"He's already lost his shot. It's being held by a boxer named Earl Gray right now. Fast and strong, but orthodox. No gimmicks or anything."

"Yeah? I'm glad to hear it," you say. You smile a little, trying to ignore the butterflies in your stomach. "Alright, let's show the world what it means to be a World Warrior."

What the hell nobody even fought anyone in today's Street Fighter Quest. TOTALLY DROPPED.

Tomorrow we'll be back for Anon vs Erich. In the meantime I've got to find some appropriate pictures of Fabio and (more importantly) come up with what to say if anyone using my computer asks why I've been googling pictures of Fabio.

Thank you for reading!

You should know better. This IS /tg/.

And thank you for running this. Looking forward to the next time, as usual.

This is it. This is when /tg/ dice make the resurgence and 1's will appear everywhere.

Indeed.

>>21583731
We have at least 3 20s stored up. Dunno if anything else (SFM confirmation would be nice here) but I know we have those. We're using them to murderize Erich.

In the event of a crit fail you can burn a saved 20 to avoid it and get a crit success.

A not-so-good series I caught a few episodes of one night while channel surfing. In the end the bad anime that your digimon was obsessed with turned out to be Comic Party, a mildly likable short series about a doujin artist followed by a kinda bad shorter series about...wacky adventures? I don't know. I thought him being obsessed with something kinda weird would be funnier than him being obsessed with something good.

I find both of those shows tremendously entertaining, in case someone was going to defend them. Sometimes a weird mess can be more fun than something made competently but straightforward.

I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT. We CAN endorse something, BUT, we retain integrity by publicly donating most of the endorsement profits to hospitals, charitable foundations, or some sort of research for horrible diseases. Then we can be a stylish badass humanitarian with plenty of integrity.

>>21583981
Nah man. We are fighting for the sake of the fight at the moment. We may end up doing that later, but right now, we need to show the world that whoring yourself out to whoever is willing to cut you a cheque is NOT the way forward.

Besides, if we wanna be philanthropists, we just wait till Mad Gear resurfaces, kick their asses, confiscate their funds, and give it to a children's Hospital or sommat.

>>21584011
Well, either way, I've figured out how we could endorse something, pleasing the tournament backers, and still not be a whore. Win-fucking-win

>>21584041
Or we could look for different backers.

>>21584041
Nah, see, the Tournament backers wouldn't be happy because it wouldn't be bringing them in money. See, Fabio over here is making them happy because he makes people buy his shit. Since they are the ones selling said shit, they are happy because the money goes to them.

If we start routing most of the funds to charities, they still won't be happy because they aren't gonna make much money.

>>21584073
Maybe, but they'd lose the last shreds of clout they have in getting rid of us for it.

Man, the tournament's never been the same since that Japanese vagabond and his buddies. Even in his forties, he still fights and seeks enlightenment to this day, for sure, and all his friends still keep in touch with him, but wouldn't it be something to see him compete as a World Warrior again? He never was a guy for ceremony, though. Still, I don't blame him for not dealing with this batch of fighters we got. Buncha scrubs wouldn't last twenty seconds against him.

>>21585114
It'd be nice to involve some more classics when/if we bring back the glory days of the World Warrior tourney, especially if they were young during the games. Guys like Sean, Yun and Yang, who were basically the future of the competition.

And I still want to see Cody. I am fascinated by the man, and I swear it has nothing to do with him talking shit to Akuma even when he's acknowledged as a worthy opponent. I just think it'd be hilarious to see Cody as a VIP prisoner: They don't even make him wear prison clothes or handcuffs anymore and his cell looks like a giant hotel suite with a private gym, all to try to keep him happy so he stops breaking out/annihilating other prisoners. I imagine at some point they just let him walk out whenever so he'd stop destroying prison walls, as well. Him going back to the "cell" is a mix of morals (after all, each breakout adds years to his sentence) and the fact that he wouldn't have such a comfortable life elsewhere.

>>21585680
I don't think we will EVER see those guys

they're waaaaaaaaaaaay up ahead than any of our fighters.

Shit, Dan could probably kick everyone ass at the same time

>>21585680
Oh yes, and Edi E as Cody's manservant. Yes, in a butler suit.

I try to avoid thinking in terms of power levels because martial arts are more complicated than that, but this is basically true. Anon could probably take Dan Hibiki and put up a decent fight against the other ridiculously low-tier characters, but against Ken or Chun-Li he may as well be a training dummy.

Something that I wish I'd hammered home harder is that Anon is naturally strong and fast, but he's been training casually for years and hardcore only for a few months. If the World Warrior tournament was still drawing in fighters of Guile and Sagat's caliber he probably would have been steamrolled. Part of the challenge of any sequel would be the realization that bringing respect back to the tournament comes with the price of bringing back fighters of that old power level, so Anon would have to be training like a demon in the meantime to stand a chance.

As for Cody, I like the explanation that he succeeded Haggar as mayor while still technically being imprisoned. Every few months he breaks out to sign legislature and fight punks until they chase him down. It's a weird but beloved tradition, and Metro City will only vote him out if they ever find an even tougher mayor.

The manga was actually pretty good. Author liked punk, red haired girlfriend beat people with a nailbat, Taishi was the broest of bros.
