2000 Daily Life and Impacts in Panther and Rainbow Part 2

For our business expansions, the first was focused on more food franchises. This is primarily because of my frustration with finding my favorite foods without them being contaminated with pork being included unnecessarily. The first food franchise we added was an Italian-themed food contrasted with the anime trope of cat-eared maids. i named this franchise Neko's. For this restaurant's visual theme, i chose girls with the more sexy type of beauty. Still, I restricted their behavior to acting as cute as possible without turning into cringy aegyo or baby talk. This is to contrast our business from sexualizing our employees that others would find sexy.

Our second food franchise was designed to make Japanese foods more commercially available in America. i named this franchise Wanko's. The theme for this restaurant is plain and honest girls. This is the brand that will allow blond and black girls and girls with bigger breasts since those features are so normalized for me that they fall into my "plain" category. The outfits will steal inspiration from the future Dog Days anime. We also encourage slightly rude versions of honesty in these locations.

The third franchise we planned for this year was designed to make Indian foods more commercially available in America. i named this franchise Usagi's. The theme for this restaurant is sweet and energetic girls. We won't do the cringy Playboy bunny girl theme, but instead, we have girls wearing schoolgirl outfits complete with the bunny tail.

The last franchise we planned for this year was designed to make Tex-Mex foods more commercially available outside of the southwestern United States (ignoring the cheap generic version available in Taco Bell). i named this franchise Ōkami's. The theme for this restaurant plays into the Hispanic stereotype of fierce, aggressive girls for guys to simp for. Never mind the fact that i didn't know many girls like this despite living in a heavily Hispanic area for around 15 years. To make this more enjoyable for me, i made the outfits for this location, mostly shrine maidens, to force the aggressive girls to attempt to have more decorum and restraint. This is primarily to make a game for customers to point out lapses in restraint (sometimes planned).

All of these locations will spread in the typical flagship locations in "places i go" first, then major cities in America, then major international cities before attempting at least 1 location in each state/province in all supportive countries.

At this time, i also started to push the commercial viability of anime and manga. First, i created indexing websites that i called AllAnime and AllManga. These started out by inviting fan subs to post to the sites. At the same time, we contacted the copyright owners. Then, we signed agreements that our site would never profit from their material. We also made available the stats of the most popular series from the site to the copyright owners to recommend adding official subtitles and releasing these series in each international market.

We also recommended that Sony invest in and eventually purchase the existing Funimation Productions as their dubbing entity for anime and work with the original creators of Crunchyroll to serve as their subtitle platform. Both were now listed on the new Crunchyroll site (more reliable than the original Funimation player). We would then encourage copyright owners to work with the now Sony subsidiaries to create official versions for our site to link to. We also linked to other places with official subs and dubs. However, we remained biased in favor of Funimation dubs and Crunchyroll subs.

For manga, we weren't quite as lucky. There wasn't a decent subscription service, so we had to take fan-subs and list those in the "free" area of the site until the copyright owners could be convinced to create licensed translations for our monthly subscription service. For this site, we agreed to distribute 90% of profits (not revenue) back to the copyright owners based on views. Like always, we took sharing things i love and providing for our employees as our primary business responsibility. 

In our attempts to popularize K-pop sooner, we proposed the K-con tour as fully funded by our company, offering free concerts until the original owners can take it over in 2012. We took all their eventual locations and instituted them from the start. Irvine; Los Angeles; San Francisco, California; Newark, New Jersey; New York City; Chicago, Illinois; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Atlanta, Georgia; Dallas; Houston, Texas; Mexico City, Mexico; Saitama; Tokyo; Chiba, Japan; Jeju, South Korea; Bangkok, Thailand; Sydney, Australia; Paris, France; Madrid; Barcelona, Spain; Rome, Italy; Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates; and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

We left an open invitation for K-pop artists to join this tour. Still, our artists are included in this tour, and we know that building the audience in these places will be slow. These artists include: SechsKies, SES, Fin. KL, Shinhwa, Click-B, Fly to the Sky, jtL, and Jewelry. We convinced SechsKies to perform in this last tour as their farewell and hello to the world audience. We also let Fin. KL debut their more mature theme for their next album during this theme.

This year also saw the release of our movies Dragon's Dawn (Dragonriders of Pern) and David Edding's Belgarath the Sorcerer Part 1 War of the Gods. i chose to end Dragon's Dawn when the dragons appeared to begin the evacuation to the North continent. The next movie will be The First Crossing (mostly the Dolphin's Bell and Crossing). The 2nd part of Belgarath the Sorcerer will end with the murder of Geran and Ildera. Both movies made a profit, but not enough for Hollywood to want to take over the production.

The $227.93 Million profit i made this year was blown to buy a large plot of land south of Dallas for a large castle-like building based on the red sandstone building of Redwall Abbey from Brian Jacques's Redwall series. We have started construction to ensure the building can be completed by the summer of 2001. This summer home/retreat is for me, my lovers, and my children.

First, leveling off and expanding the biggest hill on the property. We also started constructing large roads with base rocks and the initial covering with mixed smaller rocks (more layers of smaller rocks, concrete, and/or asphalt will be added later). These were added around the entire property and centrally through each direction to converge at the Abbey. The sandstone facade will cover the ICF/poured concrete building. Obviously, i wouldn't strictly follow the original plans for the Abbey.

i wouldn't need a well, and the landscaping will only have the Abbey, a swimming pool, an outdoor kitchen/barbecue, and grass inside the outer walls/gates. Since the outer wall is mostly a privacy fence for my house and family gatherings. On the outer property line, we planted various native evergreen trees as more privacy shields for the property before erecting the fence. The outer ditch, road, and inner ditch would be far enough to not interfere with the maximum growth of these trees. Water and power lines will be located in those general areas, and pastures will be planned later inside the outer road areas.

We planted nut trees in the inner areas and fruit trees in the outer ring surrounding Abbey Hill. We also plan to build ponds close to any streams that drain from our land for retention and future fishing (with the easiest-to-catch fish).

For the interior of the building, my lovers and i will occupy most of the building by the south gate, with dorms for the kids and maids being by the north side (moved the infirmary to the 1st floor instead of the 2nd). The great hall is mainly used as a dining room. It also has entertainment capabilities (movie projector, stage equipment, board games, etc). The Cavern Hole will be my new music recording studio, where i will invite artists to record their albums when my lovers and children are not visiting.

My full-time (all female) helpers (maids, cooks, landscapers, etc.) will plan the gardens and other food-related plots. Some of the lesbian and asexual members of my staff are allowed to live at the Abbey full-time. However, since the residential areas for my lovers do not allow men, for the straight girls and the husbands/boyfriends of my lovers, we will create a little village outside of the campus. This will get more stages as soon as we finish the initial campus.

This will include homes for the girls in my family (if the men who marry into the family can handle their wives having my support). My male cousins on my mom's side of the family would conflict enough with me having control that they would choose not to live there. The guys on my dad's side wouldn't conflict as much since they tend to lock down a wife and turn into family-first men.
