Saturday 13 February 2001.
ZAGE Youtube is now waiting for the live stream, as there has already been an announcement that a trailer will be released today. As usual, a large crowd has gathered early, with plenty of people already waiting on ZAGE Youtube, refreshing the page, chatting, and building up excitement even before the stream begins. The anticipation is clearly high, with viewers expecting something big, especially considering ZAGE's recent momentum and reputation for surprising reveals.
Ever since its release by ZAGE, YouTube has already become extremely popular. There are now countless videos, streams, and content creators on the platform, all contributing to the growing hype. As a result, moments like this—big announcements and live premieres—naturally draw massive attention, with viewers flooding in early just to be part of the experience. The energy builds fast, and the chat quickly turns into a chaotic mix of excitement, jokes, and wild speculation.
"ZAGE NEW GAMES!??"
"I hear ZEPS 4 announcement!"
"I can't think straight!" , "my friend works in ZAGE and she said she loves me and now she is my wife"
"Above me is insane, dude drink your medicine!"
"Sonaya is King!"
"Bro if ZEPS 4 drops today I'm skipping work tomorrow and for weeks!!"
"Skip work? I already quit in my mind!"
The chat scrolls so fast it's almost unreadable, messages overlapping each other as people try to react in real time. Some are serious, some are completely unhinged, and some are just there to enjoy the chaos. But one thing is clear—everyone is hyped, and whatever ZAGE is about to show… people are ready for it.
As usual, the chat is in complete chaos, everyone still waiting impatiently for the trailer to begin while the screen remains completely black. Messages keep flooding in without pause, jokes mixing with genuine hype as people spam reactions, predictions, and wild guesses about what ZAGE is about to reveal. Seconds feel longer than they should, and even the smallest delay seems to amplify the tension. Then, after what feels like forever—but is actually exactly five minutes—the screen finally flickers to life. The moment it does, the chat explodes even harder than before, becoming even more lively, louder, and faster as viewers react all at once to the sudden change.
"Here we go!" , "i'm so ready!" , "Finally!" , "Don't mess this up ZAGE!"
Then on the screen, Zaboru appears, wearing a simple casual shirt. He looks relaxed as ever, yet carries that unmistakable presence that immediately captures everyone's attention. He smiles warmly toward the camera, as if greeting each viewer personally.
"Hello, guys! Hey! Do you guys know Guitar Hero? Yes—our arcade game," he says in a light, playful tone, almost teasing the audience, who already know exactly what he's referring to. His smile slowly turns into a grin, his eyes sharpening slightly as if he's about to drop something big. "What if I told you… there's now a sequel to Guitar Hero?" He pauses just long enough for the words to sink in, letting the anticipation build to its peak. "And it's not arcade… it's on ZEPS 3!" Zaboru's grin widens, clearly enjoying the moment, as the screen immediately transitions to showcase Guitar Hero 2 running smoothly on ZEPS 3—its visuals sharp, fluid, and every bit as impressive as the arcade version.
Zaboru chuckles softly. "You can play with the normal ZEPS 3 controller like this."
He smiles and begins pressing the buttons in rhythm, the screen immediately showing the song Through Fire and Flames—an insanely fast track that would overwhelm most players.
Yet Zaboru handles it effortlessly.
His fingers move with precise timing, hitting every single note without hesitation, as if the difficulty means nothing to him. There's no tension in his posture, no struggle in his expression—only calm control. The camera lingers just long enough for viewers to register how clean his inputs are, how perfectly synced everything feels, every note landing exactly where it should.
Then, right at a particularly intense section, he pauses the game.
He slowly looks back at the camera with a knowing expression, as if he's about to elevate the moment even further.
"Or you can play with this."
Zaboru flicks his fingers casually, almost playfully.
In that instant, a new controller appears.
A guitar-shaped controller—sleek, polished, and instantly recognizable, identical in form to the classic Guitar Hero arcade setup, yet refined for home use. It gleams under the light, looking solid, premium, and far more immersive.
The message is clear.
This isn't just a port.
It's a full experience.
"That's right… this is our new controller—the Z-Guitar Controller! And now, you can play with it at home, on your ZEPS 3!"
Zaboru flashes a confident smile as he plugs in the controller with a smooth, practiced motion. The click is crisp, satisfying—almost theatrical. He lifts the guitar into position, adjusts his grip, and without another word, resumes the game.
The music surges back in.
Through Fire and Flames.
Fast. Relentless. Unforgiving.
And yet—Zaboru dominates it.
His hands move with even greater precision now, strumming and pressing in perfect rhythm, fully embodying the performance. The posture, the movement, the flow—it's no longer just gameplay. It feels like a live performance, like he's on stage rather than in front of a camera. Notes stream down the screen at impossible speed, but he hits them all cleanly, chaining combos without a single break.
The difference is immediate but everyone not suprised its Zaboru after all
The chat went insane.
"Holy shit!"
"That's dope!"
"Instant buy for sureee!"
"BRO THIS IS CRAZY!"
"I NEED THAT RIGHT NOW!"
Messages flood in faster than ever, stacking on top of each other as viewers completely lose control. Some are spamming caps, others are just repeating the same words over and over, unable to process what they've just seen. The combination of Zaboru's performance and the reveal hits perfectly, pushing the hype to another level entirely.
For a brief moment, it feels like the entire platform is shaking under the weight of the reaction.
Then Zaboru smiles, clearly satisfied with the response.
"And for Guitar Hero 2, don't worry—there will be plenty of new songs, new game modes, and of course, it will have way more content than the arcade version."
He pauses, letting that sink in as the chat continues to explode.
"And not just that…"
His grin widens slightly, his tone shifting just enough to signal something even bigger is coming.
"I'll introduce you to the next thing."
Zaboru raises his hand slightly, and from the side, a sleek white and purple box is brought into frame.
The AKAI Z-Focus.
He taps it lightly, letting the camera capture its design before chuckling.
"This… is the AKAI Z-Focus, our newest in-focus system for the ZAGE ZEPS 3. It's designed to be incredibly easy to use—just plug it into your ZEPS 3, press one button… and voilà."
With a simple press, the device hums softly.
In the next second, the Guitar Hero 2 gameplay is no longer confined to the screen—it's projected onto a nearby white wall. The image expands beautifully, clean and sharp, covering a wide surface with surprising clarity. The colors remain vivid, the motion smooth, and the immersion instantly feels different.
Bigger.
More alive.
Zaboru glances back at the camera, clearly pleased.
"Now you can play this on the in-focus display," he continues casually. "And it even comes with extendable speakers, so it won't be silent."
As if on cue, the sound system activates—rich, loud, and clear, filling the entire space.
Zaboru simply grins.
"Now you have Guitar Hero 2, the Z-Guitar Controller, and the AKAI Z-Focus… so what would you do?" Zaboru tilts his head slightly, a playful spark in his eyes. "Well, for example… you can do this. Hehehe."
He grins at the camera—confident, almost mischievous.
Then the screen abruptly shifts.
The scene cuts to a car speeding down a highway at high velocity, the camera mounted from behind as it records the motion. The asphalt blurs beneath, the horizon stretching forward, wind roaring faintly through the audio as the car slices through traffic. The perspective feels raw, dynamic—like something out of a music video rather than a game ad.
The pace is fast.
The energy is building.
Then, suddenly, a line of white trucks appears ahead, cruising along the highway at a steady, normal speed, their long cargo bodies forming a perfect moving canvas. The recording car smoothly accelerates to match their pace with precise control, the camera remaining remarkably stable as the distance closes and the framing tightens, turning the approach itself into part of the spectacle. In one fluid motion, the car's roof slides open and Zaboru rises into view, standing upright against the rushing wind, gripping the Z-Guitar with quiet confidence. His hair whips wildly and the wind presses hard against him, yet his posture never falters—focused, composed, and completely in control of the moment, as if the chaos around him is simply part of the performance.
Inside the car, the crew springs into action with practiced efficiency, powering on the Z-Focus as a soft hum builds into a sharp, luminous burst of light. The projection snaps into place, casting a large, crisp image onto the nearest truck's white cargo body; the flat surface becomes a perfectly aligned moving screen despite the speed, turning the highway itself into a stage that stretches forward into the horizon. Guitar Hero 2 fills the side of the truck in vivid color and fluid motion, the notes streaming in real time as if the world itself has become the display. A full game screen—on a moving vehicle—projected live while everything hurtles forward. It's absurd, it's insane, and against all expectation, it works flawlessly.
And Zaboru—he plays On a high-speed car.
In the middle of a highway.
With the Z-Focus projecting the game onto a moving truck.
Through Fire and Flames blares at full volume, the notes streaming down at impossible speed—and Zaboru keeps up with all of it. His hands move with perfect precision, strumming and pressing in flawless rhythm as the wind roars past him. His hair whips violently in every direction, his clothes snapping in the air, yet his stance never breaks.
He looks completely in control.
Completely locked in.
Every note lands. Every combo continues.
It isn't just gameplay anymore.
It's a performance.
A spectacle.
A moment that feels larger than the game itself.
The chat goes insane.
"THAT'S THE MOST INSANE SH*T I'VE EVER SEEN!"
"HOLY MY HOLY!"
"WHAT IS THIS MADNESS???"
"DAMN! I'M PREGNANT!"
"YOU CAN BE COOL, BUT YOU CAN'T BE THIS COOL!"
"Kyaaa Zaboru-sama!"
"MY HUSBAND—IT'S MY HUSBAND—HE IS SO COOL!"
"I WISH I'M HALF AS COOL AS ZABORU RIGHT NOW!"
"THIS IS ILLEGAL LEVEL OF COOL!"
Messages pour in endlessly, faster than anyone can read. The entire chat turns into a storm of disbelief, excitement, and pure admiration, as viewers try—and fail—to process what they are witnessing in real time.
The audience is completely flabbergasted and amazed by what they have just witnessed. What Zaboru is doing feels unreal, almost impossible, and for many viewers it crosses the line between a game showcase and something legendary. No one expected this level of insanity, this level of confidence, and certainly not in the middle of a highway at high speed. The sheer audacity of the stunt leaves everyone stunned, yet at the same time, utterly captivated.
Even as Zaboru continues to play flawlessly, maintaining perfect rhythm despite the wind and chaos around him, the scene slowly begins to transition. The music continues for a few more seconds—just enough to let the moment sink deeper into the audience's mind—before the ad shifts smoothly into its final segment.
The screen fades into product details.
The Z-Guitar Controller pricing appears first, followed by the AKAI Z-Focus. Clean visuals display bundle options, showing different combinations available for purchase. The pricing is surprisingly reasonable, far lower than what many viewers had expected after such a high-end presentation. This alone sparks another wave of excitement, as people begin to realize that this isn't just a dream showcase—it's something they can actually own.
Interest skyrockets instantly.
But even with the pricing and bundles laid out clearly, one thing remains etched in everyone's mind.
The highlight of the entire advertisement.
Zaboru—standing on a speeding car, playing Guitar Hero 2 flawlessly in the middle of a highway.
A moment so insane, so unforgettable, that it overshadows everything else.
And that is exactly what they will remember.
