Description YT

This video is an archive of vandalism, chicanery, pathological lies and forged legal documents in an obscure corner of the Japanese video game music scene. As an archivist, I value the integrity of the databases of the Internet, and made this video to document this story and how it affects our own history. And I hoped to make it entertaining.

Chapters:
0:00 - Introduction
2:00 - Chapter 1: There Is No Shield
9:39 - Chapter 2: Waiting for Agabek
14:55 - Chapter 3: To Complete the Archives
20:51 - Final Notes and Credits
