4chan is blocked by the firewall at Panera Bread. Go figure.

OK, people, I'm back to the action and what I see here: great flash contents, perfect Japanese and Russian spoken textes - it's just wow.

If you have some questions to Russian or Japanese contents, I'd be glad to help. And I'm now really onboard - I knew, it will rock

I'm at the moment overwhelmed by the contents - working it through.

Is the error at http://junsui.shineisei.jp/ actually old? I've visited the site for 2 hours, it was OK and worked pretty good for me (I love this flash design!).

Not there's an error:

And I can read the distorted message:

I saw that error days ago. I think it shows you the non-errored site the first time you visit, and the error on subsequent visits.

[kosmopol]

Thank you, Asphodel.

And I suppose, it's a hint how to log in to Alfa Tsentr.
I just don't get it right now...

@Zozma,

You're right, in this case just trout me (as it's usually in Unfiction)
I'm still overwhelmed by the tons of contents.
One think I can say:


ШК is short for "school".
Реи Нумиторова is a name, Rei Numitorova. Rei sounds very Evangelion Genesis alike And with Numitorova I've to think about King Numitor.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numitor

It looks like Alfa-Tsentr (aka Khozains) is keeping the Sisters in this "School" and making experiments (like we saw at the video of the little sister).

Russian part of http://www.flyfishsystems.com seems to be very poor translated Russian, which is very contrasted with Alfa-Tsentr webpages and Russian messages by Junko and Seteney.

UPDATE. Numitor seems to be correct:

[AUZ505]

Here is the name "Rhea" which I have already read a few time. But I am still wondering how other people did find this name:

e.g. from Junko's facebook:
Evan Townsend: Kde je Rhea?

which means "Where is Rhea?"

Did I overlook any reference that says that the captured gitlis Rhea (besides the King Numitor connection)?

Logging into the webcam (through the 'google') at 07.30am is showing a girl (rhea?) bound and gagged... logging in again she manages to get up and wonder off...

***META FOLLOWS***

For the record, I don't know if I mentioned it before but it seems like their videos are being hosted through Akamai's streaming services.

That, boys and girls, ain't cheap.

This is an enigma indeed: highest level of quality, brilliant Flash design work, professional video... But for what?

If this is viral marketing for a product, wouldn't it make sense to know what the product is? And if it's not for a product, someone's throwing some serious money at this little adventure.

Not to mention they're doing some rather unorthodox things. It's like someone threw a wad of money at these people and said "make a game", but they've never actually done it before. They're experienced content creators and designers, but are doing things that just aren't done in most ARGs.

[HELLHATHNOFURY]

I think this has got to be for a forthcoming feature film. Think something along the lines of The Cube or Saw. This ARG is creating hype and establishing a plot or sub-plot from where the movie can take off...

More meta, this time from me. I'm kind of lurking now and I did a little detective work; and I can confirm what Nighthawk says, this is kind of an enigma.

Based on the WHOISes, I can tell that the group is hosting using Dreamhost; a fine host, but not usually used by professional games. Professional games with an advertising budget usually have a nice dedicated server farm to back them. Indie games are more likely to be hosted on places like dreamhost; shared hosting or virtual private servers. This seems to either be a commercial game with a ton of attention to detail. Hosted on apache2-goo.castellano.dreamhost.com.

So, it seems we've got a little game changer, dropped to me over Skype by one Alexander Dubrovin.

Executive summary: Junko is just an actor in an ad, a "spokepersonality" Dubrovin put it. It appears that Junko is a "paid actor or model" and a separatist group has stolen her identity for their own.

Executive executive summary: ENIGMAS!
