And now a word from your sponsors

[blackhole_sunattack]

[[Now you'll meet someone who isn't on base, rather, a supporter, and even a sponsor. However this is coming in over broadcast]]

Good afternoon everyone. I'm Banjou Haran, a member of your group, as well as one of your sponsors. I won't be found in any of the bases today, but I hear that many new supporters and recruits are pouring in, so I thought it appropriate to introduce myself to you all. Perhaps soon we'll all meet in person at my estate.

[[Behind Banjou are four others, though...

His trusted butler, Garrison.


The lovely blonde, Beauty (that's her name, promise)


The skilled INTERPOL agent, Reika.


And the token brat, Toppo.]]


But I'm more than just a sponsor for the group. I'll also be helping you against the Meganoid menace plaguing our planet, as well as many others. Should you ever need the Power of the Sun, then look no further to Daitarn 3!

[[And the feed remains open, seemingly LIVE, so you might have a conversation with him, though one by one his friends disperse.]]

Please, Banjou is fine. No need for all those formalities.

I'm a pilot myself, so I'd be rude of me to expect you to just follow the heavily financed suggestions from some disgruntled old voice telling you who you can and can't shoot today.

But that said, I do expect you to put in your best.

[glorystargo]

If you say so Banjou.

Good thing the Glory Stars are around then. If you expect the best, that's what you're going to get from me and my team. I guarantee it.

[blackhole_sunattack]

Good to hear it. Where are you stationed currently? I'd like to know where each of my allies are currently.

[[Allies rather than pawns or subordinates. Ain't he a great guy?]]

[glorystargo]

Fort Alhambra at the moment. We have no intention to limit Glory Star operations to North America only, of course.

[blackhole_sunattack]

Indeed. It's best to be ready to get where you need to go quickly, but knowing where you are helps allocate and calculate manpower.

Where are the rest of your team?

[glorystargo]

Probably loitering around and in Toby's case trying to make trouble. Do you want to speak to them?

[blackhole_sunattack]

I'd like to meet them eventually, but there's no hurry.

And do try to keep him in line. I might be throwing money at you, but I can never speak for your personal actions. [[His eyes shift in Reika's general direction, who huffs as she seems to feel she's being made the butt of a hoke.]]

[glorystargo]

Don't worry, they're not the kind of people to pull off anything really serious. Even Toby.
