Bab 89: Kurosawa Hayao's Address to the Board

***

There was once a young boy named Kurosawa Hayao. He was a very bright child—he knew that all too well. Throughout his childhood, he always stood above his peers in terms of academics, athleticism, music, art, and anything you could think of. One could say that his life was easy, that he could live on cruise control.

However, that was no further from the truth.

All throughout his younger years, he suffered through the torture of always having to dumb everything down. If he was speaking to someone, he'd had to simplify the concepts or talk about pointless nonsense. There was no one on his level, but that also meant that there was no one he could really talk to.

One day, he met another gifted young boy. This boy, however, was nothing like Kurosawa. Living a completely different life, the other boy was motivated, dedicated and, most importantly, passionate.
