Wow, dick move, Heavy Hitter! (Pun totally intended.) They've just insulted the majority of the attendees who will be walking past their booth; talk about not knowing your audience.

I can see why Uruha is upset about the change to the Java's, but it actually might work in their favour. PSC will almost certainly win the Drama, Comedy, and Romance categories, and I'm guessing they'll have a decent shot at the Star Vehicle category as well. That means 4 in 6 odds of winning the Best Video. (5 out of 6 in years to come if they include a Parody. Screw Wall-to-Wall; those sound boring.) Under the old system, they only had 1 shot at it, since I don't remember them ever getting more than one nomination for Best Video. Chin up, Director-san!

Subaru's reaction to this whole thing is pretty adorable. I'm so glad all of the fans were respectful, even if they got someone who wasn't their first choice. The last girl's reaction was absolutely perfect - exactly how it feels when you find a kindred spirit. ^_^ Now off to part 2...

Uruha hasn't really thought it through at this point - he's having a visceral reaction to the realignment of the categories, and it's just irking him that Heavy Hitter has twisted things so that they and Adonis are pretty much guaranteed "Best some-sort-of-Video" trophies. And, yeah, wall-to-walls sound boring as hell - but unfortunately, they're the direction the real-life industry is heading now. (It's pretty depressing that the new normal is vignettes where there's not just a plot, the participating characters don't even have names!)

I just had to put the last girl's reaction in there - it really is the way people feel when they find fellow fans of anything, especially if they've had nobody to share their interest with until now! They'll probably be hanging out discussing their favorite actors and videos now - and squeeing if they happen to recognize performers at Pornbucks!
