1. Currency from Dollar to Yen: Yeah, this is justified. I changed it midway, though—guilty as charged.
2.The arcade being too cheap: I thought everyone would understand this because, in this story, the video game industry has just crashed, and arcades haven't hit their golden era yet. I know very well how much arcades cost in Japan in the 1990s because I played them myself back in the day. Especially during that era, the Japanese bubble had just burst, so everything became expensive. I thought making it 5-10 yen was justified because, in my story, we the Japanese bubble never happened and isn't mentioned at all.
3. Zaboru's slave contract with the arcades (LOL): Honestly, I wrote that contract as vaguely as possible to show that Zaboru can make mistakes. But he's just lucky he's not getting exploited. Besides, the contract is fixed in later chapters.
4. (SPOILER Heavy! Skip this if you hate spoiler!!!, go to Point5 directly!)

Zabo-man making the games easier... really?: Did any of you notice that when I made Zabo-man a side character in Mega Man, I added an additional scene for that particular boss? For example, I made the fight against the Yellow Devil in Mega Man harder because, when I was a kid playing Mega Man, I thought this boss was scary! But I beat it on my first try, and the fight was boring as hell. Zabo-man just serves as a cutscene there. But everyone says Zabo-man makes the games easier. Also, in Donkey Kong, when Zabo-man bonks him, that happens because Donkey Kong becomes overly aggressive—more than usual—making the game impossible to complete if he stays in that state. That's why I added Zabo-man as a cutscene to make the game normal again!

5. Zaboru not acting like a 50-year-old man around the Yakuza: I mean, in his previous life, he was never involved in Yakuza life, not even once. Of course, he's scared out of his mind. Do you expect everyone to act like a young master in a cultivation novel in real life—always proud and acting like a jerk? He's really afraid to go to Ayumi's room alone because he's scared of misunderstandings and her father, the scary Yakuza, killing him!"
Anyway don`t expect perfection from this fics!, I'm not even that good with English and i can`t write this without GPT help to translate so.... enjoy..
