Episode 10: Thread About Hyakka Ryouran

【Information Exchange Board for Explorer Party "Hyakka Ryouran"】

1 Future Awakened

This is a thread for sharing information about the explorer party "Hyakka Ryouran" and its members: Toomi Kaoru, Kurokage Rin, Akatsuki Kureha, and Maihana Hanazono. Naturally, please refrain from making defamatory, slanderous, or personally attacking remarks.

2 Future Awakened

>1 Thanks for the thread, OP. I'm a Hyakka Ryouran fan too, so let me join in.

3 Future Awakened

>2 Welcome, comrade. Let's talk to our hearts' content.

4 Future Awakened

>1 Pardon the intrusion. I'm a Hyakka Ryouran fan too, but I'm especially a fan of Himehana.

5 Future Awakened

>4 Welcome. I'm a Kaoru fan myself, but Himehana's great too, isn't she?

6 Future Awakened

>4 Nice to meet you. I'm a fan of Rin. That boku-girl character got me good.

7 Future Awakened

'Sup! Nice to meet ya! Leader Kaoru fan right here!

8 Future Awakened

>7 Welcome. Leader Kaoru's great too, isn't she?

9 Future Awakened

>7 Welcome! Let's chat to our hearts' content today!

10 Future Awakened

Pardon me. A Kureha fan passing through.

11 Future Awakened

>10 Welcome. But look at that—we've got fans neatly split among all four, huh?

12 Future Awakened

>10 Welcome

13 Future Awakened

Hello~! I'm a Himehana fan!

14 Future Awakened

Nice to meet you~, Kureha is the best!

15 Future Awakened

Oh! A thread like this exists! Mind if I come in? I'm a Rin fan!

16 Future Awakened

Hyakka Ryouran rules! Oh, and by the way—I'm a Kaoru fan!

17 Future Awakened

Sorry for not replying individually. Welcome, everyone.

18 Future Awakened

I don't really have a specific favorite, but I love Hyakka Ryouran as a whole.

19 Future Awakened

Looking at it like this, Hyakka Ryouran's popularity is insane.

20 Future Awakened

>19 ikr

21 Future Awakened

>19 An all-female party of four. Everyone's beautiful. D-rank powerhouses. They've got every ingredient for popularity and nothing else.

22 Future Awakened

>21 ikr

23 Future Awakened

Damn, I'm late to the party... Can't believe such an amazing thread exists. I'm a Himehana fan.

24 Future Awakened

>21 They've got that star quality, don't they? Strong and beautiful women. All four of them. And since they each have different personalities, they attract a wide range of fans.

25 Future Awakened

>24 ikr

26 Future Awakened

Oh, their HP just got updated. Whoa! Looks like a new stream video's been uploaded!

27 Future Awakened

>26 Thx for the info! Gonna check it out right now.

28 Future Awakened

>26 I saw it too. Looking forward to it!

29 Future Awakened

Mt. Fuji dungeon this time, huh. That's not their usual spot. Did something happen?

30 Future Awakened

>29 Oh, now that you mention it. What happened?

31 Future Awakened

>29 Huh? You're right. They were always at the Tokyo Skyscraper dungeon before. Same D-rank dungeon though.

32 Future Awakened

Looks like there's some extra info written here. Let's see, what does it say... This time they hired a cameraman instead of using a rental drone?

33 Future Awakened

A cameraman!? A companion cameraman for Hyakka Ryouran!?

34 Future Awakened

>33 Nah, look more carefully. It doesn't say "companion." Actually, it says remote operation.

35 Future Awakened

Huh? Remote operation? In a dungeon? How?

36 Future Awakened

Remote operation? Was remote operation in a dungeon even possible?

37 Future Awakened

Hmm? Remote operation? No way, that's impossible. Dungeons don't allow radio waves from outside.

38 Future Awakened

Huh? Then is it a lie?

39 Future Awakened

>38 What reason would Hyakka Ryouran have to lie on their official HP?

40 Future Awakened

>39 Easy, easy. We'll know if we just watch it.

41 Future Awakened

>40 Yeah, true. We'll know once we watch. My bad.

42 Future Awakened

It's been posted!

43 Future Awakened

Opening shot is the four of them from behind. Rental drones usually start filming after they're switched on inside, so this feels pretty fresh.

44 Future Awakened

Feels like a movie. So cool.

45 Future Awakened

>43 ikr

46 Future Awakened

Even from behind they look gorgeous. Beautiful people really have it good...

47 Future Awakened

So, what's next?

48 Future Awakened

Oh, starting straight from the fifth floor? Well, there aren't any monsters on lower floors that would give Hyakka Ryouran a challenge. Probably just cutting down on time.

49 Future Awakened

Three goblins at first. Wait, isn't this camera quality insane? I've never seen a goblin close-up before.

50 Future Awakened

>49 Seriously. Rental drones always shoot from way too far away.

51 Future Awakened

Whoa!? It's keeping pace with the Fireball!?

52 Future Awakened

Is this really remote operation? If so, the skill level is insane.

53 Future Awakened

>52 Wait, was it even possible to operate something remotely inside a dungeon in the first place?

54 Future Awakened

>53 It shouldn't be possible, so let's just watch the stream and judge for ourselves—that's where we ended up.

55 Future Awakened

Here it comes! Close-up of Himehana from the front! I always wanted to see this but could never get the angle—the cameraman is way too good!

56 Future Awakened

Filming battle scenes from the front!? How risky is that!?

57 Future Awakened

This is sick! Kaoru's spear handling is insane!

58 Future Awakened

>57 The guy capturing all that without missing a beat is insane too.

59 Future Awakened

Man, they took them out in no time flat. I knew it, but D-rank adventurers are seriously something else.

60 Future Awakened

Oh, are they going to film their conversations while moving too?

61 Future Awakened

This is so moe! Talking about sweets right after slaughtering goblins!

62 Future Awakened

Boku-girl Rin is the best...

63 Future Awakened

>62 Oh, a comrade...

64 Future Awakened

Kureha not knowing about convenience store sweets—how sheltered can you get!?

65 Future Awakened

>64 You didn't know? Kureha is the only daughter of the president of that Dungeon Corporation.

66 Future Awakened

>65 Huh!? The one ranked number one in corporate rankings!? That's insane...

67 Future Awakened

But with rental drones, they just follow from behind, so the fact that they're picking up audio like this is really appreciated.

68 Future Awakened

>67 ikr

69 Future Awakened

>67 No seriously, this is such a blessing. Getting to see the everyday casual moments of our idols—it's got my heart racing.

70 Future Awakened

>69 I feel you! I totally feel you, comrade!

71 Future Awakened

>69 Getting to hear Rin's voice, which we almost never get to hear normally—I'm moved!

72 Future Awakened

Seriously this cameraman is amazing

73 Future Awakened

I wanna be Hyakka Ryouran's cameraman too...

74 Future Awakened

But is this really remote operation? If so, we're talking about technology the government wouldn't just sit back and ignore, right?

75 Future Awakened

>74 Seriously. If you can communicate between inside and outside a dungeon, you could call for help in emergencies, or keep monster rampages to a minimum, couldn't you?

76 Future Awakened

Who knows? The camera is moving all over the place but the cameraman never shows up on screen at all. I think remote operation is highly likely, but...

77 Future Awakened

>76 Which do you think is harder—filming without ever appearing on camera, or remotely operating from outside the dungeon?

78 Future Awakened

>77 Now that you put it that way... yeah, fair point...

79 Future Awakened

>77 No no, are you saying the Hyakka Ryouran members are lying?

80 Future Awakened

>79 Ah, no, that's not what I...

81 Future Awakened

Oh, more importantly—the group battle with the goblins is starting!

82 Future Awakened

Hmm, there's an archer among them, isn't there? Is this going to be okay?

83 Future Awakened

Whoa, you can knock arrows out of the air with a weapon?

84 Future Awakened

>83 Don't try that at home, amateurs. That's only possible because they're explorers.

85 Future Awakened

Whoa!? This cameraman actually spotted Rin? I didn't notice her at all.

86 Future Awakened

>85 I thought the same thing. Finding her is impressive on the cameraman's part, but Rin's stealth is insane too. The goblins haven't noticed her at all.

87 Future Awakened

>86 So in the end, the one who didn't miss any of that—the cameraman—is the most impressive one here, right?

88 Future Awakened

Ah, Kureha through the Fireball... beautiful.

89 Future Awakened

>88 I'm a Himehana fan, but that gave me chills for real.

90 Future Awakened

This footage would be impossible with a rental drone.

91 Future Awakened

>90 No way you could film battle scenes from the front in the first place. The monsters would destroy it.

92 Future Awakened

>88 It's like a scene from a quality movie. No, maybe even better.

93 Future Awakened

>92 Bald agree. This cameraman is seriously amazing.

94 Future Awakened

It just went public and it's already at a million views lol

95 Future Awakened

>94 This is gonna blow up even more. Seriously, this is on a completely different level from anything they've streamed before.

96 Future Awakened

>94 Hyakka Ryouran's follower count just doubled (lol)

97 Future Awakened

Oh, battle's over. Himehana's high-five—I'm so jealous.

98 Future Awakened

Seriously, the gap between battle mode and this gets me every time. I've fallen even harder for them.

99 Future Awakened

>98 Same

100 Future Awakened

>98 Agreed

101 Future Awakened

>98 I get it

102 Future Awakened

>98 Comrade

103 Future Awakened

>98 I was thinking the same thing

104 Future Awakened

Oh ho, they're even showing the magic stone collection.

105 Future Awakened

lol Himehana is so not having it!

106 Future Awakened

Lol! What's Rin doing!?

107 Future Awakened

Kureha falling on her butt—what a blessed sight!?

108 Future Awakened

Seriously, I hope this guy films the next one too?

109 Future Awakened

>108 I was thinking the same thing. If possible, I'd hope the cameraman is a woman though.

110 Future Awakened

>109 No way, this camera work is definitely a guy. He's filming this in a way that appeals to guys, no question.

111 Future Awakened

Yo yo yo yo yo! They're even filming the lunch scene!? Is this guy for real!?

112 Future Awakened

This is a pretty long-distance telephoto shot. It's got that voyeuristic thrill—heart-pounding stuff.

113 Future Awakened

Man, why are beautiful women eating so exciting to watch?

114 Future Awakened

>113 I get the feeling, but don't say it out loud. You'll get reported.

115 Future Awakened

>114 Ah, sorry. I'll be more careful.

116 Future Awakened

>113 I get it...

459 Future Awakened

Alright, the boss fight at last, huh?

460 Future Awakened

Mt. Fuji dungeon's tenth floor... what was the boss again?

461 Future Awakened

>460 Goblin Knight x2, Goblin Magician x2

462 Future Awakened

>461 thx

463 Future Awakened

It's started. Their usual strategy. Himehana, two knights—will she be okay?

464 Future Awakened

Whoa, Fire Wall! She read their magic perfectly.

465 Future Awakened

That's Kureha for you.

466 Future Awakened

Two knights is pretty tough after all. She's getting pushed back quite a bit.

467 Future Awakened

She's getting pushed back, sure, but the fact that "getting pushed back by Goblin Knights" is all that's happening is actually insane, isn't it?

468 Future Awakened

>465 True. Getting pushed back = holding her ground.

469 Future Awakened

Here's a close-up of Rin. Seriously, this guy really knows what to look at.

470 Future Awakened

Whoa!? That caption just now was perfect! Goosebumps!

471 Future Awakened

Does this guy have editing talent too?

472 Future Awakened

Kaoru shows no mercy! But that's what makes her great!

473 Future Awakened

>472 A reliable leader, for sure.

474 Future Awakened

And when it's all over, a flawless, overwhelming victory.

475 Future Awakened

>474 Doesn't Hyakka Ryouran have like, C-rank level strength?

476 Future Awakened

>475 They're definitely strong, but even a single rank difference means the monsters get way tougher. Hard to say for sure.

477 Future Awakened

Oh, so this is a transfer stone.

478 Future Awakened

One by one, they transfer out... and then the empty transfer chamber. What a perfect ending.

479 Future Awakened

Seriously, this is insane. Three hours flew by. I've never been this drawn in before.

480 Future Awakened

More entertaining than half the movies out there.

481 Future Awakened

A human-operated camera makes this much of a difference compared to a rental drone?

482 Future Awakened

>481 Probably depends on the person. I think this guy is seriously talented.

483 Future Awakened

I'm moved... I want to support Hyakka Ryouran even more now.

484 Future Awakened

I want to have this guy film "Kokushi Musou."

485 Future Awakened

>484 Oh, I wanna see that too!

486 Future Awakened

>484 Whoa! That sounds like it'd be amazing!

487 Future Awakened

>484 Seriously, I'd love to see a dungeon run video from Japan's number one party.

488 Future Awakened

So anyway, who IS this cameraman?

489 Future Awakened

Oh? There's a link on Hyakka Ryouran's HP. Says it's the cameraman's HP.

490 Future Awakened

Oh~, so he really is doing it remotely.

491 Future Awakened

Price is a bit higher than rentals, but for this quality it's a steal.

492 Future Awakened

It's pricier, but no compensation cost if the drone gets wrecked—can't complain about that, right?

493 Future Awakened

>492 That's always the biggest waste of money.

494 Future Awakened

Man, that was something special. This is a permanent save, for sure.

495 Future Awakened

The view count is absolutely insane right now (lol)

999 Future Awakened

What if he's using a skill to operate it remotely...
