[Late the night of the 18th, the network finally seems to be restored as the feed flickers on... to what appears to be a technical error. The figure of a man sits at a desk, his outline barely visible through a shroud of darkness and static. It seems as if the network has picked up on a local news feed attempting to send out its message...]

-- your effusive-as-sparkling-cider, ever on the job host, Tomokazu Tokudome. Thank you for joining us tonight at the Hinoto-Ri Daily News, where we soldier on despite the never-ceasing oddities that continue to plague us at every step. Tonight - chaos in Hinoto-Ri as the Visitor-used network goes down again, accompanied by the electricity in three of our major power grids. Technicians frantically work on the case but are sadly hindered by the fact that half of them have regressed to five years of age, meaning accidents on the job risk lawsuits filed on behalf of both inadequate worker's comp and child labor laws. If you choose to walk on the streets tonight, be especially aware that the demons have risen full force, even before the stroke of the 13th Hour.
Further news reports that a research facility in Sagittarius has suffered a critical infrastructure failure by which we mean everything is now on fire. Fortunately, no one appears to have been injured as no one is quite sure what exactly this research facility is for.
But before all of that - first! One of our most popular television personalities here in town, his acclaim buoyed by his stellar response to the Anoli threat in late January and his bravery in the face of imminent danger during the incident of the underground demon-fighting ring in July... has resigned! What a pity! He'll certainly be missed.
Yes, I fear it's true. Tomokazu Tokudome... will host his last show tonight.
( A man's last show. )
