As a fan of the community I wished for
something more.
I knew my cred was poor
I knew someday I would have to...
Rise Up!
If they tell my story
I am either gonna fade away from fame
No glory or...
Rise Up!
I will fight for the fans.
But there's only one fan.
Who can give us a command so we can...
Rise Up!
Understand it's the only way to
Rise Up!
Rise Up!
Here he comes.
Here comes the General!
Ladies and Gentlemen!
Here comes the General!
The moment you've been waiting for!
Here comes the General!
The Pride of Rowland Heights!
Here comes the General
One-Punch Man!
- We are outgunned!
- WHAT!
- Outmanned!
- WHAT!
- Outnumbered!
- Outplanned!
We gotta make an all-out stand!
Ey-yo I'm gonna need a Right Hand Man!
Check it.
Can i be real a second?
For just a millisecond?
I let my guard down and tell the Fandom
How I feel a second?
Now I'm the model of a modern major general.
The impeccable prodigal Filipino
Whose fans are lining up
To put me on a pedestal tagging me in stories.
Embellishing their relevance and
glory but
The elephant is in the room.
The truth is in your face
When the fandom viewership goes BOOM!
Any hope  of success is fleeting.
How can I keep leading
When the morale keeps taking a beating?
We take a step back
As the fandoms form their cliques.
We ain't trying to be fake.
But wait...
- We are outgunned!
- WHAT!
- Outmanned!
- WHAT!
Outnumbered!
Outplanned!
We gotta make an all-out stand!
Ey-yo I'm gonna need a Right Hand Man!
Yo where's everybody going?
We doubling down on efforts
You know we ravenous!
We gotta stand up 
While we still have our advantages!
Let's take a stand while the fans are
still expecting us.
Hamilton won't abandon ship.
Yo!  Let's meet the fandom!
Sha-BOOM! goes the fandom
As the videos are months late.
Sha-BOOM! goes to fandom
As the crew procrastinates.
Sha-BOOM!
We need to get the vids out.
BOOM!
I'm pulling all my hair out.
BOOM!
We need a viral hit.
We can't afford another slip.
Sailors Saiyans Power Up!
I decide to divy up my forces.
They're skittish as the cliquish
Cut the fandom up!
This close to giving up.
Facing mad scrutiny.
I scream in the face of this mass mutiny!
Are these the fans with which
I am to defend the fandom?
A thousand followers seem so far in the distance.
I cannot be everywhere at once people.
I'm in dire need of assistance.
Hey One-Punch Man!
Huh yes.  Beetlejuice...
You already know my name.
Permission to say my piece.
-As you were.
-Sure.
I've been on the cosplay scene
Before all the sadbois and lewd queeens
Started blowing up and taking over the community.
-Okay...
I think I could be some assistance.
- I admire how you keep fighting with so
much persistence.
- Huh.
I have some questions.
A couple of suggestions.
Of how to stay trending despite all the stress.
- Yes...?
- Well...
Your Baldness!
You wanted to see me?
Hamilton come in.
Have you met Beetlejuice?
Yes sir!
- We keep meeting!
- We keep meeting!
As I've been saying dude.
I have some ideas I would like to see you play out.
- Gentlemen.
- Yes sir!
Come closer.
We have much to talk about.
Have I done something wrong sir?
On the contrary.
I've called you here because
our odds are beyond scary.
- Your reputation precedes you but I have to laugh.
- Sir?
- Hamilton how come no one can get you on their staff?
- Sir!
Don't get me wrong.
You're a young man of great renown.
I know you like to shoot photos with those
cosplayers downtown.
But you keep turning down work with
bigger names.
Yeah.  To be their camera jockey.
I don't think so.
- Then why are you so upset?
- I'm not.
It's all right you wanna fight.
You got a hunger.
I was just like you when I was younger.
Head full of fantasies of being sexy and popular.
- Yes!
- Being popular is easy young man.
Passion is harder.
- Why are you telling me this?
- I'm being honest.
I'm working with a third 
of the help I was promised.
My plans are all about to go up in smoke.
We need someone like you to lighten the load so...
I am not throwing away my shot.
I am not throwing away my shot.
Ay-yo just like my country
I'm young scrappy and hungry.
I am not throwing away my shot.
Son we are outgunned outmanned!
You'll need all the help we can get 
I have some friends
LoveMe Cosplay GrandGeekGathering

- Okay what else?
- Outnumbered Outplanned!
We need connections on the inside.
Some sound people who'll get us to the big time.
- Sha-BOOM!
- We'll set up crowdfunding for all of our supplies.
We'll rally the guys.
The new videos will be a surprise.
- Sha-BOOM!
- I'll rise above my station

Of our new nation sir!
