Hi, I'm Rusty Komori, and this is Beyond the Lines. We are broadcasting live from the beautiful Think Tech Hawaii TV studio in the Pioneer Plaza in downtown Honolulu. This show is based on my book, which is also titled Beyond the Lines, and it's about leadership, creating a superior culture of excellence and building winning teams. Today's special guest is extremely special to me. He is my three-time state doubles champion, who I talk about in my book, and he is the owner and CEO of the very successful, very popular Rainbow Drive-In. He is Chris Iwamura, and today we are going beyond plate lunches. Champ, great to see you. Great to see you today. Congratulations on the book and a successful show so far. Oh, thank you. Well, I have to make you proud. I'm excited to be here. Now Chris, I want to ask you, when and why did you start tennis? I started tennis maybe when I was around five or six years old. My dad always played tennis, and there's a sport that he loved. I played a bunch of sports when I started. Obviously, as high school went along, you have to pick one, so I stuck with tennis because it was the one I was the most successful at, so I stuck with it. And then you and I got connected because I started teaching you private and group lessons when you were in seventh grade. Yeah, seventh grade. So how did you like my lessons back then? You pushed me. You definitely pushed me. No, I loved it. I think tennis for me was just a way to escape kind of school too and just have fun on the court, learn things, and learn life lessons throughout the entire process. Yeah, and I wanted to try to keep things fun. It was always fun. Really to push you hard. I never beat you. I never beat you, but I came close, so that's as much fun as I had. Let's talk about varsity. Now, when you're on my varsity team, you're my three-time state doubles champion. You won as a freshman with Bucky Janks, and then you won twice with Nick Leong. Why did you love playing doubles so much? I could have someone to blame. I'm just joking. I like doubles because I think for me singles was just kind of too much of a solo act. I liked having a partner. Even now, I like having teams. So it was like a little team that we could have. What was unique about tennis in general is that you're just out there. You can't coach us until the set's over. So working with Bucky, working with Nick, even Matt, we had to figure out strategies on the fly, and that's kind of what I loved was the problem-solving aspect to it. I have to coach you guys to coach yourselves out there because it was all about our preparation. Now, what did you enjoy, Chris, about playing on our varsity team?  And that was the main thing above everything else, is we had fun. We worked extremely, extremely hard. You ran us. You drilled us hard. It was all worth it, though. And we had fun in the process, and we learned a lot during that time. And I think, I mean, just do something you love. Everyone says that, right? Do something you love, and you love tennis at the time, so I played it. Yeah, and then winning became a byproduct of what we did on our team. Exactly. You know, we had a great team culture. It was the culture of winning, and anything less, not necessarily meant failure, but we would learn.  You'd sometimes lose, and what do you learn from that going forward? Yeah, everybody learned more from losing matches than we did really from winning matches. Exactly. Now, why do you think our varsity team was so successful? I think, like we spoke on, just the culture.  I worked with them a little bit. And you see that culture of, you know, just the hard work ethic, and basically perfection. So that's kind of why it was successful, is because it kept getting handed down, handed down. And you know, when I even coached the JV team in varsity, and I would still practice those techniques and things, and teach them to be perfect. Yeah, no, totally. And then after Punahou School, you went to college at Santa Clara, and you played tennis there. How was your experience in college at Santa Clara? Completely different. And not necessarily, it's just, it's a different culture. Coming from Hawaii, it's very family. Not to bash on anyone, it was just more run like a military style. And then that coupled with me going to school, trying to get a computer engineering degree, and labs and things, it was just, it was too much. And that's why I only played two years, and then I had to step down for school. Yeah. Yeah.  Has tents. Yeah. Exactly. Hey, but you're legendary. Now let's talk about your parents, Harvey and Betsy. I know them for so many years as well. They are fantastic parents. Tell me, what are some of the principles you learned from them? I think anyone that's met my parents knows that just aloha, love, you know, just having that feeling of, you know, you're not being left out, including everyone, making sure everyone's taken care of, that was the number one lesson I learned. The second was hard work. Yeah. I used to be, my dad and I would go practice serves literally in the dark at 5.30 a.m. I'd have practice during lunch and practice after school too. So it's just, you know, growing up in that culture of practice, practice, practice, but you see the payoff. I mean, that's helped me tremendously growing up.  It was amazing. Yeah, you want to talk about legendary. Our potlucks were legendary. I don't know how I even like did homework after this. We would have so much food and that was part of just the culture, though. In fact, like everyone's a family. We come together after the games. Even the girls would join us and we just eat and talk. Story is memorable. Your mom and dad would bring a whole cooler of slush flows for our team. And they'd be like, co-trustee, these two are for you. Exactly. They had to make sure you had yours and they didn't care what happened to the other ones. Free for all after that. Now, let's talk about rainbows. Can you give everyone a brief history about rainbows? So rainbow driving is a third generation. I'm the third generation family business. It was started by my grandpa. So my grandpa went and fought in the 442, 100 battalion. And he was a chef for the army. So that's kind of what he knew and what he was trained in doing. So when he came home, he tried to open up a couple of different spots. They didn't turn out for various reasons. But then he parked at rainbow driving on the corner of Kapahulu. And ever since, we've been cooking, play lunches. And it started in 1961? 1961, so 57 turn 58 this year. Geez, that's amazing. Now, you guys have won, I mean, multiple awards through the years. And I noticed that you guys are featured on Hawaii 5-0 and Magnum PI. Why do you think rainbows is so successful? Well, my grandpa always said that it's hard work plus luck. But I think one of your favorite quotes is that we make our own luck, right? So I think it's just through hard work. And just through consistency, we were very fortunate to have a base. And as that grew, as more tourists spread the word, internet helped a lot of things, we've just been really lucky after that. Yeah, well, I mean, it's luck.  And you wanted to give a lot of food at a reasonable price. That's part of our mission is just to make sure that there's restaurants there that are out that you pay a lot and you get a little, which is fine for those type of people. But we based ourself on you come to rainbows, you're probably going to have to take a nap after. So you just expect that. And that, for me, should never change. I mean, that's what we started on. And that's what we should always go with. Now, champ, my favorite food items I have to share is the chili plate, the breakfast special with the corned beef hash.  Now, I want to know what is your favorite food items at rainbows? I love our chili.  So it's something on the healthier side that I like to eat. Oh, see, that's the problem for me is I have my favorites and I want to try other stuff, but I don't want to miss out on not having the ones I really love. Exactly. We have a lot of people like that or people that just want to come in and, you know, they're here for vacation and they ask people, they'll ask you maybe, like, what are your favorite plates? You'll give them three. So they'll just come and be like, you know what, it's cheap enough. We'll just order three and then family style it around. With the slush floats. With the slush floats, always, always. Now, Chris, how do you balance what has worked in the business in the past versus staying current right now? I think that's, it's tough because, you know, we, we're known for our nostalgic feel.  So there has to be a balance between keeping it nostalgic and moving forward. And I think with me working in tech for a while, it was like just move forward, move forward, move forward. So I had to slow myself down and be like, okay, we're going to just do one thing at a time. We're not going to like scare a lot of our employees like, here's a brand new system, go learn it. So we're just trying to balance like moving forward with staying nostalgic and trying to still keep the outside feel of nostalgia that you knew when you came here as a kid. Yeah, because you guys also have a lot of long time employees. We do. We have a two employee, three employees now over 25 years. And you know, you know them because you see them every time. So I mean, that's one of our best assets is our employees who have been there a while, even, even if it's five, six years, they build, especially our cashiers, they build connections with people. They'll remember your order, they'll remember your name. And that I think is very important because as a family business, we want to still keep that family aspect to it. And things, small things like remembering your name just makes it feel like home. And that's kind of what we're shooting for now. Yeah, you're right, though.  And it's all the details.  Now, champ, I want to know, what are you doing to enhance the business now as the owner and CEO? So for me, I'm trying to take my past experiences and bring it forward. So things like even lessons I learned in tennis, hard work, things like that. I have a master's in computer engineering. So what I took away from that was problem-solving skills. You know, even as simple as something's broken, OK, let's figure out what part of it is broken and how we can fix it. Or scheduling, it's like playing Tetris. I'm just trying to learn how to put pieces in place and put the people in place, too, that for us to run forward. And then recently, last year, I got my MBA from UH. And what that did was it took my mindset from just maybe just straight problem-solving, like computer analytical. And I put it in a business sense. So that way, I feel that I'm well-equipped to tackle most situations.  They're always trying to be better. And I love, and this was last year that you got your MBA. And I love that about you because I've known you for so long. And you're amazing. You're extraordinary.  I hope so. No, it's been learning to me is something that I hope to never stop. I even go on YouTube and just learn random things about marketing, about finance, just trying to learn as much as I can. And it's part of my personal mission is to just learn as much as I can and use that knowledge to help the business, myself, Hawaii in general, move forward. Yeah. Champ, what do you see? What are the challenges that you're dealing with right now with rainbows? I think the biggest challenge right now is that we are so, I understand why nothing has changed. Because the saying, if it's broke, don't fix it. The problem is that with everything's getting older. The floors in our drive-in are 57 years old. There's things that have been there since the start. And so it's trying to figure out how to modernize things while still trying to keep the family feel and not making our employees feel like we're pushing them out or anything like that. But just trying to make their jobs more efficient and make it easier for everyone and safer too. Yeah. No, that's a delicate balance right there that you're trying to do. Champ, we're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to continue going beyond plate lunches. OK. You are watching Beyond the Lines on Think Tech, Hawaii with my special guest Chris Iwamura. We will be back in 60 seconds. Aloha. I'm Wendy Lowe.

Again, maraming, salamat po, Mabuhay, and aloha. Welcome back to Beyond the Lines on Think Tech, Hawaii. I've known my special guest for a very long time, because he is my three-time state doubles champion and the owner and CEO of the very popular rainbow drive-in. He is Chrissy Womura, and today we are going beyond plate lunches.  How do you like that story that I talked about? It was the most appropriate lesson learned for me and my story because you talk about risk-taking with me. And risk-taking is something that I think I take very seriously, but I think you use the term calculated risk. I try and try to calculate as much as I can. Something with like Ramos, it was a risk, it was a big risk for me. I went from living in SF Bay area, coding to helping to run a kitchen, but this one was, you know, it's been my passion and I just kind of jumped in and was like, if I'm going to do this, I've got to fully commit. So basically what I did was I went in and literally started from the ground up. So I would wash dishes, scoop rice, cook, cashier, learn kind of learn every single position. And it's something that I enjoyed. It wasn't like I came in and going, oh, I have to do this today. It was like, okay, I need to learn.   But you know, it's something that you learn and you get a better appreciation for the jobs that your workers do if you do their job.  But you know, I did it too and let's work together and figure out how we can, how we can help the situation. And that's very impressive champ because your employees, I mean, you've done every job. I haven't seen you taking out the garbage. You know, I mean, you've done every job and that's how you gain respect from your team because they know that as the owner you know what they're going through. And you know, having empathy for your people is huge. Now, I know you have empathy for them. I mean, I know. Now, what, talk to me about empathy and your people. Well, it's just, I think it's just connecting. It's a culture that I wanted to build, you know, and kind of off the family and kind of off a lot of like the Aloha. Aloha is our core value in it. We want to spread that to every aspect of the business. It's just, you know, being there for your employees and knowing exactly what they go through. I think that was the biggest thing. Someone, I forgot someone told me that, you know, the janitor is the one that knows what's broken the most and it's true. Like you can't just going in and being higher up doesn't mean that you don't care about your employees. It's you go and talk to them. You find out how their daughter or sons are doing and things like that.  Whereas the big area was a little different. It was more just business-minded, but in Hawaii, you need to establish connections. Now, that's so key and that makes me happy to hear you say that because on our team, you know, I was first and foremost, I was so concerned about your guys' well-being first and then playing 10 a second. But when you guys knew that my first priority was to really help you guys develop as people and then practice 10 a second. Even if you yelled at us for an entire two hours, we knew that it wasn't because you just wanted to yell. It had to mean something to happen. I'll never forget that day. There was a reason. There was a reason. There was a legitimate reason. And now I can look back and appreciate it exactly.  And you know what, we can't do the same. And you guys are like, what? And I said, yeah, we have to have a superior effort and we have to have a superior attitude. And that has to be our culture. You remember that? Exactly. Being the best at something, if you're complacent, you're gonna go down. It's there's no like doubts about that. And for us, we were the top in the state and every time we played someone, it didn't matter who, they were bringing their A game because they had nothing to lose. So what that did for us though was kept making us improve because we always had to adjust and be like, oh my God, this guy is not missing a forehead today. Like we're just gonna, well, for doubles, I'm like, I'm just gonna hit to this guy. He's like, he's in his own. So it's just, it's yeah, like keep on growing, keep on learning, even though you're number one, keep on growing. Yeah. And that was a huge thing because I didn't want us to take anyone for granted. And I wanted us to outdo what we've done every single year. You always set high expectations for us. Well, we always want to reach for something. Just be on our reach, right? Exactly. Now, one of the biggest concepts, too, of our team was to welcome adversity and to look forward to challenges. What are your thoughts about that? Nobody likes adversity. I mean, in the ideal world, everyone would just like to cruise through life without any challenges. But I mean, it's, I learned a lot about that recently. Or recently with the new job and recently just in life in general. I mean, everyone goes through their challenges. It's how you kind of, you know, you grow from it. I think your show at June Jones, he was talking about the car crash and how he had to mentally fight mind over matter to get his legs back working and everything. So I think adversity should be cherished because you're going to come out stronger. Mentally stronger, if anything. And it's something that I'm still learning to this day. There's, it's a restaurant. Something's broken right now. Something is broken. But it's just like how we fix it and how we move forward. And I think that part was trained early. You know, I lost a lot of singles matches. I lost doubles matches. But it's just how you move forward on from that. Yeah, and you learned a lot from that. And I like what you said about the challenges because you know, I would tell you guys that when we would look forward to adversity and we didn't know when it was going to happen, but it was going to happen. And once we got through it and we dealt with it, we would become stronger for that experience. We'd become better. We'd become smarter for that. Cause you say to yourself, oh, I've gone through that already. That's fine. I know you have the confidence to overcome that hurdle if it ever comes up again. So then you look, what's the next hurdle coming up? Yeah, it's a mindset. Exactly. And Chris, what do you feel the best coaches or the best leaders do? I think leadership, just in general, defined in the term leadership for me is growing a culture that everyone wants to be a part of. And I think you did that at Punahou. Some of my bosses on the mail ended that. I enjoyed going to work. I enjoyed going to practice, even though it was work or practice. It's creating that culture that I want to fight for you. And I think that's something the best leaders do. I know some leaders are very yelling military style. But again, in Hawaii, I think it's more about empathy and building a team, building an ohana to tackle bigger problems. Yeah, no, you're completely right. And Chris, what do you see as the biggest difference in you today versus you 10 years ago? 40 pounds. No, I can't be Superman. When I first, I think when we're all young, we're like, oh, we can do everything. Like, I can do this and this and this. And now, I mean, I'm still young, but I'm learning more and more that trust in your team, trust in your people, and also trusting in yourself. Just being able to delegate has helped me a lot. With the stress, with a lot of things, just being like, OK, this is your task. I trust you to do it. And then it takes off my plate. I can't be Superman. I need sleep. I do.  Yeah, exactly. I think that was a kind of a realization, too, right? It's not just delegating. And then if you build a good enough team, they're going to do it with a purpose. They're not just going to be like, oh, he gave me this to do. I'm just going to do it when I have time. It's like, oh, he gave me this. He trusts me with this. Let's let me do my best effort. Yeah. And it's a team-first mentality where everyone's contributing. Everyone makes an impact. And everyone is valued because everyone's a reflection of each other.  Exactly. Even tennis as an individual sport, when we play as a team, all of us reflect your values that you instilled onto us. And if someone's not holding up their end, like maybe as captain or whatever we call them out and be like, hey, you need to step up, we're all fighting for the same cause, you need to step up and help us.  Just X's everywhere. Exactly. And I would tell you guys that, hey, we can do 99 things right. But if we did one wrong thing, everyone's only going to remember that one wrong thing. So we can never do that one wrong thing. Exactly. And it's a privilege to be in that situation. But it's similar to you now because everyone knows Rainbows is so successful. It's a lot of pressure. But I think I'm starting to embrace it more and more because I'm starting to own it more and more. You always gave the fishbowl analogy. And that's always stuck with me. Our team was in the fishbowl. Everyone was just constantly watching us. And I think that's what I take when we go back to work. It's like, everyone's watching what we do. And sometimes what I'm starting to instill into the work is people come here for, they give you one shot. It's one meal. Try to put out your best. It's not just, oh, another meal. It's like this person flew from New Zealand to have, they took their time to come to Rainbows. And we need to appreciate that. And yeah, so. No, that's your soul, right?  Every month? Yeah, yeah. Chris, before we wrap, I want to ask you one more thing. What gives you fulfillment? I think how I define success for myself and fulfillment in the same terms is not money or these accolades or anything like that. It's being able to leave an impact on people. Whether it's in my personal relationships with friends or it's a customer or my employees, eventually when I pass away, I leave an imprint. And my values can transfer over. That's kind of what IDM is for fulfillment or success. I like that. Champ, it was so awesome having you on the show today. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. I feel so proud of you. Well, I'm honored. I'm honored to be here. This has been fun. Well, your employees are very lucky to have you. That's for sure. I hope so. Thank you, Champ. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Now you've seen why Rainbow Drive-In will continue to sustain success under Chris's leadership. And I want to thank you for tuning in today and a special thank you to my clothing sponsor, Eolani Incorporated. For more information, please visit RustyKamori.com. And my book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and all Costco stores in Hawaii. I hope that Chris and I will inspire you to create your own superior culture of excellence and to find your greatness and help others find theirs. Aloha.


To infinity and not be on the box office though. Ooh, that's a hot mug, guys. Hey guys, this is my review for the light year. Very rare occurrence for me for watching a children's, technically speaking, animated movie in the opening weekend. I rarely ever do that, but I had a very, very special exemption for this film because it is associated with the Toy Story films. These are movies I have been following ever since I watched the first film on VHS back in 1996, and I have loved these movies ever since. And so when I saw that they were going to make a movie based on the character of light year in the sense of what the toy is based on, I was actually quite interested. And even when I saw that Chris Evans was going to voice him, I was like, okay, I'll admit it's a little bit unfortunate that Tim Allen isn't playing him, but this is supposed to be Buzz Lightyear's opening story, and it's also been 20 years. So we're trying to introduce a kind of more of a younger voice to this character. Tim Allen is what in his 60s to 70s at this point? Sure, you could say the same thing for Woody being voiced by Tom Hanks and Tim Allen voicing Buzz in the Toy Story 4 movie, but I feel those work with those toys. I think that works there. This is just a little bit different. It didn't bother me too much. Also, another thing that seemed to bother people a lot was the whole same-sex kiss thing.  So for those of you who are going to butt hurt about it, it doesn't matter. For those in Disney who are trying to push this as them trying to be, oh, hey, look, we're progressive now.  Don't try and say you're on some sort of high horse. And now let's actually talk about this movie. I will admit, I did not expect to have interstellar vibes. But that's what this movie gives off. It's actually a very kind of concrete, very minor story. I was expecting Buzz to be going across the galaxy and whatnot, but it actually takes place for the most part on this one planet. Buzz finds himself marooned on this planet with this colony spaceship, and they spend years trying to figure out how to get off this planet because, unfortunately, the crystal drive that gives them warp speed or whatever broke and they don't have the means to create it normally, because that would be done on a more associated planet. So they have to spend all this time making experiments to try and figure it out. All the while, people in time is going by for Buzz so quickly because of these experiments. He's not really getting to enjoy what he has on this planet, and he slowly starts to realize that a lot of stuff has gone past him without him noticing to the point where he is thrust into a situation where Zerg has appeared and now he's trying to destroy the city that Buzz has been desperately trying to get all these people off this planet and he gets stuck with this ragtag group of recruits to try and take down Zerg and to save the city and get everyone off this planet. I will say there are a few things that surprised me in a good way and there was a few that surprised me in a bad way. The first being the side characters. I actually quite enjoyed them, all of them. One of them is voiced by Taika Wahidi and the rest all do a really exceptional job. I think everyone does a really good job in the voice department for this film even with one character who we'll talk about in a minute. The other thing that I really enjoyed was we get as many references to the toy from all of the lines that he said in the last three movies combined. All of the tag lines, all of the catchphrases that Buzz is known for are said in this movie and they aren't dropped terribly. They all fit pretty well. There are a few jokes here and there that aren't great. They're kind of like even for a kid's movie. I thought that the humor was pretty good. The music by Mako Ganachino is good as always. The man can never screw up. I feel when it comes to making scores and he does a very, very good job with this score. And then comes the part that I'm actually kind of nipped about and I can't explain so much of it without spoiling it but I was really let down by Zerg. And it's because without truly, truly, truly spoiling it, they do change who he is in a sense. I find that a little bit strange because the beginning of the movie they say in back in 1995 Andy bought a toy from a Buzz Lightyear from his favorite movie. This is that movie. And this movie contradicts what Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3, all the other Zerg kind of related stuff has said. So it's a little bit weird and I didn't understand that idea behind that. I thought that was a little bit of an odd choice considering everyone in the audience who has watched the other ones would have been like, wait, what? Now, while it certainly is a little bit different than what I was expecting and actually kind of a well-written surprise, it doesn't work in terms of who it's supposed to be related to. And I was really disappointed by that. The animation though is phenomenal. Pixar just keeps on upping their game every time and there's always new details to see between the texture of the dirt, the shadows, the lighting, the dynamic movement of the characters and just the general look. It always looks like it's getting a better polish every time, a better buff on every single product that Pixar makes. And I'm always never going to complain about the look of these movies. And let's say I made a really, really weird one, but otherwise Lightyear has a very solid animation and color style and art style. Overall though is Lightyear deserving of all the kind of criticisms getting? I don't get it. It's a children's movie. It's a okay, fun time. It's not anything exceptional. It's not anything terrible. It's a very solid movie if just light on plot, very fun on action, but not really on the memorable and heartwarming bits that Pixar is known for. There really isn't that much of that. There is nothing in this movie that hits you as hard as any of the previous Pixar movies has had and that's maybe kind of what might weigh what some people are complaining about is that lack of emotional hit that we're all so used to from Pixar. So that is a valid criticism. But in the end, I'm going to give Lightyear a 4 out of 7. I think it's a fun time. I enjoyed it.  That didn't bother me because I was enjoying the movie. But those are my thoughts about it. Have you guys seen Lightyear? Tell me what you guys thought in the comments below. Anyways guys, I hope you enjoyed the review. If you didn't, leave a like and if you're interested in more subscribe. Otherwise, see you guys next time.


Now there are two actions to respond to the demand of the American people for honesty and government. While the numbers of thousands of government employees are working honestly and competently to serve their nation, there is also a very small minority of dishonest and some frankly incompetent individuals who are costing the taxpayers, perhaps, billions of dollars in fraud and waste. This is not my money, it's not the Congress's money, it's the people's money. Our failure to stop this fraud, waste, and mismanagement has led to growing public cynicism about the ability of government to control itself. It raises fundamental questions about the integrity of government. My first action is the issuance of an executive order establishing the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency. This action signals everyone who works for or does business with the government that we mean business. The executive order I will sign brings together in one body the inspectors general of the various agencies of government so that they can focus their total efforts in the places that will do the most good. And this will also include the efforts of the Justice Department and its resources in the FBI. Bringing together these efforts will permit all agencies to share knowledge of fraudulent and wasteful activities. They will exchange information of all kinds on all kinds of investigations which will provide the most promising results. And they will be ready to move in quickly with tough and effective criminal prosecutions where such prosecutions are wanted. I ask Edwin Harper, Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget, to chair the new Council. Mr. Harper will be reporting directly to me and Ed, and I am confident that we will have a lot to report. I am also announcing the appointments of the first six of the 16 inspectors general that are authorized by law. When I exercised my prerogative as a new President to terminate the appointments of the incumbent inspectors, I announced that we would seek the very best people we could find, including those who previously held these positions. Five of the six individuals that I am announcing today were previously serving as inspectors general. And I hope this puts to rest suspicions that have been voiced at politics in anything to do with these appointments. We sought the best people available. The individuals with experience who have uncovered cases of fraud and waste in government and have saved or recovered millions of dollars. I am also pleased to announce that the FBI has just concluded a major investigation in New York relating to fraud in the summer lunch program. The FBI director William Webster can give us a briefing later on this matter. Now, we will not rest with today's announcement. We will not simply tuck this event away and go on with business as usual. The American people are demanding action, and they are going to get it. Believe me, we are out to get control of our own lives, and we are going to follow every lead, root out every incompetent and prosecute, any crook we find who is the people of this nation and this new process.

The tournament modes in Dragon Ball Z, Budokai Tank IH3 were one of my favorite features in the entire game. So I knew right away that I had to make this video when I saw that the fan team behind the BT4 mod made their own unique tournament mode based on the Tournament of Power. If you played any of the old tournament modes from BT3, you know how this one works. Only this time, instead of like a Master Oshiro of Adele at the end, you're going to find Uigoku or Jiren. And that level of difficulty increase can pretty much be seen throughout the entire tournament. So will me or my friend Rhymes, I'll be able to make it fully to the end? Well, we'll just have to find out. All right, all right, we're playing on the hardest difficulty, right? We're not playing with we, not you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But boot it up, boot it up. And we're taking turns too. I know some people like going both at the same time, but we're just fully taking turns. So who are you going to use? Are we still talking about playing a game or something else, bro? Oh, what did I say? Nothing. Anyway, are we doing random? We don't have to do random. You can do random if you want to.  You know what? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm taking my skirt off, bro. Okay, costume too? Yeah. What does that look like? I'm taking my skirt off. What's this? They did a fan made symbol or is this one in the old game? I don't know if this is the same one. I assume this is this is the most previous game. Oh, they changed the host to look at him. It's a turn moment. It is Jared. Look, it's Sharon. He's up there. Look, he's the he's the victor. Well, hold on, hold on. Look at this lineup. Are you kidding me? I was going to say these guys were not competing in the tournament of power. Who are these guys really in the first tournament? If you can't get to 10 push ups, you're not being. No, no, no, no, this stage looks clean. Look at this. Well, it's about to get dirty because I'm going to peel over it. Watch this. Is that? Wait, was I you? You are small compared to him. All right. I would say I'm pretty much average size.  What? I don't like. I don't like hitting denim pants. I like the he did that in the in the anime and it was like, not to say that bro wearing Levi's for real. Bro, he's embarrassing you. My God, I'm going to miss, I'm going to miss. Wait, did you not know that the tournament of power mode also has just increased difficulty in general? Yeah. Yeah, it does. You did know that, right? I know. See, I'm also a him. Can I even do my own? Oh, I can't shoot him. No, you can't. But if he if he levels up, maybe you can. No. All right. Damn, I didn't blink that. Oh, there you go. You got his back. Sweep the nice. There we go. Oh, Keyblast cannon. There's no shot. There's ring outs on this map, right? No, yeah, I was going to say this is just hands. We have to play we have general. How did he? We had to be broke. Bro, he was skipping away only to come back.  I know what must be done.  There we go. There we go. The damage on him. Give him a pause. How can I even do my ultimate? It's fun now. No. Oh, but he blocked it. I guess that technically worked.  I might just have to shoot him because, like, you know, reason Geneva is this strong health wise.  Oh, you got him on the run now. I'm going to shoot him. Get up, Geneva. There we go.  Come here. It's crazy fighting raid bosses and seeing how little damage we do. We have to work so hard for every hundred damage. Bro, leave me alone. Hell's Gate? He's got Hell's Gate combos. He's got my cheeks. Oh, my God. He actually does have Mach Power. Watch out. Bro, why are you smacking me like that? He's shaking you down. No. Good enough. You've tied him in health. You've tied him in health, which means you're like two bars in a week. He'll be dead right now if it wasn't. I'm just surprised at what you blocked. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You blocked that right. Oh, my God. Why did he get his key bones? Why did he cut to it? She sent me out like that. Oh, why he got to be a giant? My God, man. You're not losing him round one. Surely you're not losing him round one. He has key sickness. I'm going to shoot him. You got to hit him. Right of face. There we go. And we're going to do it again. We're going to do it again because I have to. It's the only damage I can do. He's blocking. A single key blast to let him know you were looking. He's trying to breathe at me. He's trying to breathe at me. He's charging again. He's charging again. Oh, that's why. Key sickness. No. Come on, bro. You got him. You got him. He's one last bar left. No. Back up. Just shoot him again. Just shoot him again. I'll give him a heart attack. You got five bars. Surely you got like time prison. Put him in a time prison. I can't do it. Time skip. Time prison is the other time. But one look at a little too easy for you. I was all broke. I was like, yeah, yeah. He is holding his broken arm. Like I wouldn't worry about it. Oh, I forgot I'm still playing. I got excited. I was like, I can go take a breather. But nope, I guess I'm going. Nope, Super Saiyan 2 Gohan. Not going to let that slide. Here's the thing. I'm not scared of Gohan. You want to know why?  Okay. Cell. That's actually Cell seconds before disaster. Yeah. Well, this is me before disaster for him. He was trying to run. I think this might be an easier matchup for you than Jenem. Actually, he's got hands. No, he doesn't. Oh, my God. We weaved. Why did he weave like that? Okay. Nice. Good presence. Go around. Distance. Go around.  He was just throwing haymakers. I don't even need Okie. Well, I get. Oh, get hands off the merchandise. Oh, I'm a vanishing. I'm a vanishing. I didn't manage it. Nah, you weren't vanishing that. I'm a little flesh wound. Close enough, though. Why did you turn around? Oh, he's trying to tie it up. What's my tag? He's trying to tie it up. You got to stop him. No. Another Super Saiyan 2 Gohan. That's incredibly. Stop, man. I'm sorry. He's giving you the three P's. Please. And a one bar explosive wave. Oh, my God.  That's it. You made some distance. You made a mistake. This is why you made a mistake. Oh, let him know. Oh, no. He's trying to get his dad's phone number. Does that reach? Please tell me it reaches. Oh, free, free, free, free. Oh, that bomb. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. He's like, ow, ow, ow. He had something he just had to say. It's almost all tied up. You could still clutch this out. Oh, one bar explosive wave is cheap. I'm going to freeze time. What do you got to do? What do you got to do? What do you got to do? Time to get Molotov. I'm hoping for you. It's got to work. Oh, you reach him. Look at him. Look at him. Ow, ow, ow. It's all because I'm in my skirt.   All right. Well, he is sitting over there. Anyway, what's it like having to sit here and just watch as I win this tournament on my own? Honestly, it feels good.  I'm here to watch your battles and now you're fighting. I've got Android 13. Yeah, you didn't. You didn't think Vegeta was going to enter the tournament of power yet? No, what? He's going to go do something else like wash dishes or something. He's got those gloves on. No, bro. He's here to play broke the map. Why are you walking? Actually, yeah. What round do you think this took place? Do you think this is Vegeta's handiwork? All right. Oh my gosh. Why is it Android 13 is not playing? Gohan definitely had more technical ability than Geneva, but he didn't have the health. So does does Android 13 have both elements? Oh, bro. Oh, not super explosive. Wave. Right.  He did. He did just get folded. Stop that. Side step it. Oh, you got stopped. Great road so far. Come here. Come here. Come here. No, we're not. Yes. Yes. All right. He can. Okay. He pumped up. He pumped up. He's got a little bit more damage on him, but that doesn't scare you. No, it's not. Okay. Well, he kind of hurts. He kind of hurts. I'm not going to lie back up back up. Okay. He's got a bit of a health lead on you now. There you go. That's how you get it back. Oh, he's. Oh my God. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I got I got I got. He's right there. He's he's all over. He's not giving you a chance to charge. He's just mad. He has no key. How, how, how, how, how, how, how, how.  Why? Oh my gosh. You just walked up and did that. He's got key sickness though. That's it. I have to do it. Shoot him. Are you shot him? You can see the yellow knife.  You will stand here. Oh my God. Out. That's it. That's it. You're in level feet. That was my whole plan. That was my entire plan. I know what to do afterwards. Oh, you're getting so lucky right. You are really pushing it right out. You are really. If anyone killed me. Oh, oh, oh, no. Android 13 took you out. I don't know about a sense of being, but I can, I can get back. I can get back for you. Okay. Bejito versus 13. Listen, you probably weren't beaten, but you know blue anyway. Let's be honest. Yeah. Yeah. He has spirit sword. I love that move. All right. Now it's my turn. I'm not going to let that happen. You know what? You kind of went with somebody that got screwed over in the tournament of power in the actual show. I'm going to do that as well and pick Tien. Interesting. Dien had one of the worst outings in all of the tournament of power. I've got to get his get back. Piccolo got tossed up by a bug. Come on, bro. It is true. Piccolo did get tossed out by an invisible ant. Like at least, at least Tien tried. Why is my, what? Super Saiyan 4 Gojina lineup. They didn't want me to win. Dog, what is this lineup? They did not want me to win. I can't have fun. It's okay. I have a strategy. I have a strategy and this is right. You know, if I was going to fight Gojina, it might as well be around one. So I could either win or lose early, but I'm not about to let that happen. Gojina. I will be your opponent.  Just Gojina. Look, he can't even block. Oh, no. That would be bad. He's already dropping so much on me. Bro, he's only frazzled. What? Did I block him? Did I get you deciding? What? No! Why did you have a gang side at him? Bro, because I don't know. I thought that was going to be the move. I thought that was the move. How do I, he's not letting me take the lead. Thanks, counter. He still just threw a gang side. Got him. I got his back. Dash up. There you go. Oh, huh. Turn him around. Oh. Go on, Ray. For the one time. I don't know what you're expecting with that. Hey, if it comes down to it, you can give up your life and kill which ultimate. Easy. Exactly. I feel like it's a little extreme in my opinion. I don't want to, I don't want to snap him off me. I'll just go. Finish that. There you go. There you go. Oh, that's unfortunate. That's fine. I try to sidestep that. No! I saw your life flash for your eyes there. I'll go to you to please. He's going to try it again. He's going to try it again, but I'm not going. I think he was just telling you he can do that if you wanted at any moment. Die. Okay. I got to try. He's dashing. You know what I mean? I don't know why, but yelling out die, running away and hitting him just showed up and the other side is hilarious. No shot. He has the aim. Oh my God. That's your right. You know what I'm going to do right? Yes. Yes. Yes. Stupid. Stupid. I saw my life flash before my eyes. What does TN have? Surely I have solar flare. You can't. Solar flare. You can't lose. Why would he go? Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. He's lost. He's lost. He dodged it. No. No, he's to have it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Oh, no. One, two, three, four, five. You got it. Damn. Why did I pass out? TN woke up six things later and said, I guess I must have won. All right. Next round. TN already be super safe for Vegeta. Let's look at a lineup. Let's look at a lineup. What? All right. You want Goka lost to Goka Black? Bro, the left side of the bracket is much weaker than the right side. I'm going to be honest. Like Vigito, Genema matchup. That's a nightmare. No, no, no. Here's the thing. If it was Gojita, sure. But Genema's going to, let's go sweet Vigito. Watch. Let me, let me deal with Mecha-Freeza. Let me deal with Mecha-Freeza. Let me focus on what I can do. Bro, just unplug him and it should be good. I do possess access to the solar flare technique.  Don't all right. Oh, now I'm going to tell you it's fun fact because I know you don't know about it. Oh, oh, oh. Did you know that androids and characters with Scouters lock on faster? Why is that a fun fact, brother? That just means he has a benefit. Yeah. Well, no, in this situation it has its benefit. But it's a fun fact that the game developers added that. Now, I don't know if Frieza can't store stuff, but I assume it does. Side step. There you go.  Sternblast. I feel like it will hurt your head more than it hurts him. Let me do it. I've got to finish this. It's fine. He has no aim. It's Frieza. He has no aim. Do I go for my ultimate right away? Surely I do. Actually, you know what? I do. There you go. Oh, oh, he had, he had this thing lock. He had to. He made it like easier. You can do that because I'm going to do this. He's dead. He's dead. He's dead. He's not dead. Not until I do this. He's dead. Now stay right there. He's dead. Don't miss. There you go. He's dead. Oh, we never done this in a rain. Easy winner. I win. All right. Damn. All three of my eyes blinked at once. That was crazy. All right. All right. Let's see the Geneva win. Vegito sweep. Let's go. But wait, I have to fight him. Yeah. I don't want to fight Vegito.  But bro, I only that only works when I have more life than they do. It's fine. Hit him like three times. Gold. Are you the one that destroyed this stage? It was perfectly fine before you got here. As long as it doesn't go blue, you're fine. Because then he's not going blue. I feel like if you can go into his spirit store, it'll be so fast. Good block. I just had a, I had a hold that. There you go. Coward, coward. Oh, that is the equivalent to spirit sort actually. Good hit. Thank you. Dash up. There you go. There you go. Oh my God. He tried it. Dash up. There you go. Sweep the leg. Yep. Yep. Yep. Chop. There you go. Boom. He weeping for nothing. He is. Oh, he's dead. I dash up free, bro. This is your turn. This is your video. This is my video. Turn him around. Look at that. Look at that map. This rock is in my way. This rock. You know what must be done. I do. Now you break it. Oh, whoa. Whoa. Why is he kicking me? Damn, he's dancing on me. Oh, no. It's fine. He's dead. He's dead. No, he's 100%. Neo. Yes. That's it. Game. Game. Game. Done. You're done. You're done. You're dead. Why is this in the game? Why is this in this game? Easy. Ouch. Every time I face plant and then I get up, I'm like, I'm actually the winner though. We map the mood is up to tier list of best attacks right above spiritual. You know what? Oh, look at the video works out, bro. It's it. Nah, I'm not losing a hit. I'll tell you that right now. I'm not losing a hit. I feel like you can go all the way and just win. I feel like if you, if somebody looked at me and thought I was picking TN this video, they would have been crazy. But here I am playing him right now and I have to win for every single TN fan out there. He walked up on you immediately. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. And I remember the strategy. I saw it firsthand. He's off the merchandise, buddy. He's off the merchandise, buddy, boy. There you go. And you need to know the dispersion that hit has a skirt. He's got power boost. Did you see the way I weaved his own key blast back at him?  Crane dance. Crane stance. Hold on. It's going to work. Why keep posing on him? It's going to work. It's going to work. I just need to like actually get it to work.  I don't want to spend my health, but I really feel like I have to. There you go. Why is he winning? Oh, he's winning every turn. Stop. Good hit. That's decent damage. 7K is real decent damage. It's even health, even health, even health. Surely, surely solar flare is only two bars. Crane stance. Oh, no. Dude, get it turned around. I banished that. Bro, I hit so hard. I thought you banished it. What are you doing? Oh, wild testing. Okay. There you go. This is bad, man. I can't lose the hit. I got to get distance. Oh, it's fine. He gave you distance. You better run. Oh, no. Win this. Win this clash. Easy. Free, free, free, free, free, free. Don't all right for the added on damage. Bro, how? Oh, no. How does this? Oh, give me out. Give me out. Give me out. You're going to need a key here, bro. You got to win this. I got to lose. If I lose a single clash, it's over. If you can go into your ultimate, you got this. He baited me. There you go. Back step. You banished him. Yes. Yes. Clean, clean, clean, clean. This is it. This is it. This is it. You win. You win here. You win here. You win here. No. He got me. Why was I belly up? Smile on my face. Why were you knocked out? Bro was napping. I think Tien went out and sat her here. What? What do you mean? The better question is, who wins this tournament? Actually, I know what happens here. It's Jaren versus Hit. Yeah, no. What happens next is Canem. Well, I don't think either of us are beating the tournament of power anytime soon, but I was closer than you. Hey, 20,000 likes and we'll do it again. Bro, 20,000 likes, all three of us will do it and all three of us will win. Guaranteed. No, no, 25,000 likes and we'll do all three of us do it. 20,000 likes and we'll do it again. But one subscriber and I'll smile. Yes. So consider subscribing. Yes. Goodbye.
