*Kzzt* A title card plays in with terrible late night infomercial music, showing the name of the show to be ‘Origin Spotlight!’. As the title card fades, the view of an expansive deck spreads out before the viewers, along with a man in a decently pressed business suit. A bit on the older side with palish skin and brown eyes, his hair has clung desperately to the sides of his head which he combs over in a poor attempt at hiding the fact that he is balding.
