• OOC Date: 05-04-26
• IC Date: ????
• Summary: Another of Ryuji's videos. He might in trouble in this one.

Are those 90's color shape graphics with royalty free hip hop beats? Suddenly, there is a star wipe in and Ryuji 'Ramenboy' Sakamoto is standing in front of a Ramen place in Harajuku. He is dressed in a loose fitting shirt with checkered wide leg shorts, a trilby, and thick framed prop glasses to look 'smart'. "Sup, hungry people? It's Ramen Boy 87 with another Ramen Review." There is a bass echo of 'Ramen Review' by a disembodied voice, followed by record scratches. This is admittedly pretty cool...if it was 1996.

Ryuji jumps and a bad jump cut transports him to a table inside the restaurant. "Excellent traditional decor and ambience make up this place's homey style. It's kinda cool to find something so unashamedly old school next to the modern fashion stores a few doors down. Locals in the shops around here swear by the place. But how does their bowl compare to someone who has had the Tokyo Triple 777 Ramen Restaurants Crawl*** and the Sumaru Mystery Walk Ramen experience***.

• • • Some of the best Ramen on in their respective areas. Many debate the lists even being a thing.
      

 While Ryuji is talking at the camera, there is an elderly man mugging at the camera in the background. He seems to be another customer.

 There is another star wipe to a bowl of the ramen. The music is now royalty free classy music, like this is an exquisite feast. "This looks good, guys. Heh. I think it's gonna get high on the Sakamoto scale!" 'Talk about the fresh bamboo shoots!' an old man yells from behind Ryuji. The blonde is startled with almost losing his prop glasses. He does lose his hat thought.

 There is a hard cut to Ryuji scolding the old man. "Look, I appreciate your enthusiasm but you can't go---" There is another hard cut to---

 Ryuji slurping some of the Ramen, nodding appreciatively. A 'Wow' sound effect plays as Ryuji nods at the camera. In the background, the old man is frowning at the camera, clearly upset. Ryuji sighs and there is another hard cut.

This time Ryuji stands next to the old man. He is grinning. "This man has something he wants to tell my viewers. Ok, pops, let us have it."

"The ramen here is very good." The old man says into the camera before turning back to Ryuji.

 Ryuji blinks. "That's it?"

 "Yes."

 Ryuji clicks his tongue. "Aw, come on."

There is a hard cut to Ryuji taking another slurp of his Ramen. He gives a thumbs up.

 Star wipe to back outside the restaurant. Ryuji is holding a microphone as he looks into the camera, which is slightly askew. "So yeah traditional Ramen bowl at its best. On the Sakamoto scale---" 'That's him, officer! That is the punk harassing customers' The old man from earlier is now pointing at Ryuji with an officer of the law. Ryuji hates those!

"For Real?! I'm just trying to review a place! Screw it..." Ryuji grabs the camera and it becomes shaky cam as the young Sakamoto boy attempts to run.

 Star wipe to much further away. Ryuji stands in some alley way, breathing heavily. "Ah..fu---heh. So that takes my rank down a few points. Adults can screw up a place's vibe. But if you want a good vibe----Model Wonderland, located on the 3rd floor of the Honda building in Akiba. Tell 'em Ramenboy sent ya! Later, hungry viewers!" Ryuji winks at the camera.

 There is some digital static as it would seem to be whatever this was recorded over. Now a shirtless Ryuji, holding a comb was dancing to a Muses song for a solid 3 seconds before the video ends for real.

Ryuji continues to be very....interesting at video editing.
