Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa Episode 13

Tonegawa's long-waited day is finally here. The first game of Restricted Rock-Paper-Scissors is already scheduled to take place in a few days' time and all he has to do is bring the happy news to his beloved chairman. The chairman is one cookie who likes to keep our main character guessing though, and soon Tonegawa is cornered, having to answer some random questions thrown in from Teiai's mastermind. The questions seem innocuous enough at first. If you're traversing a length of woods, and all of a sudden an animal pops by in front of you, which animal is it? The answer to which is supposed to determine how Tonegawa views his fearful boss. He somehow manages to give a plausible answer, and is soon presented with another challenging query. And another.

The Chairman's lens of truth.

 To anyone familiar with this series, one thing should become obvious right away: the chairman has a weird of shit-testing Tonegawa. It doesn't seem that he does that out of spite or just to test his mettle though. The old honcho seems genuinely interested in Tonegawa's take on just about every possible subject, like he doesn't do anything without consulting with our title character first. Problem is that, there are dozens of black suits available to him, but he seems to have a fancy to Tonegawa. Maybe that's how he became the second-in-command at Teiai.

Noob Saibot may be lurking anywhere. Even on another planet


The chairman is on the offensive, trying to get Tonegawa to reveal how he actually has little respect for his judgement. Tonegawa finally trips, stating that, should he ever be in charge of a space craft forced to crash land on an unknown planet, the first creature he'd expect to find would be an octopus entity. One would almost think that he had been playing this game a little too much.

I'm going to get a shirt with this design. Much more clever than the usual blather hipsters sport nowadays


The chairman dishes out Tonegawa's obligatory punishment, only to be taken aback by an added detail to his description of the pictured space octopus: it's blue, rather than red. The redress is met with astoundment, causing the older speaker to back up, the black suits nearby joining his quivering figure in unison. Apparently, whatever a blue octopus from outer space means according to the chairman's literary source, proves to be a daunting revelation. It's never revealed what it is, but the chairman concedes that he couldn't imagine how someone could devise such a perverted thought. He ends up throwing a confetti party for Tonegawa, complete with a birthday cake and people applauding him with a performance stage as the setting. Tonegawa comes away the winner again, but what matters is that Restricted Rock-Paper-Scissors is finally given the get-on and Tonegawa can rest. For now.
