So. Does anything know anything about a "Leo Corporation" or "LDS", as I've been doing research on them for business reasons.

I haven't been able to find too much:
- It seems to be a family owned business based on the high ranking executives names?
- They're based out of Maiami City, which I think is one of several towns that got special exemptions and deals from the national government?

They seem to have uncanny parallels to Kaiba Corp, having a few patents on modern updates to the Solid Vision patents, for the luxury-grade Action Duel System, said family seems to run the company, and they apparently run their own Dueling school? And they seem to have some dealings with Industrial Illusions.

But I can't seem to find any real in-depth information of how they grew, how daily operations though it looks like they're taking a bite of some of Kaiba Corp's market share recently.

Nor can I find much information on Maiami itself.

It's like the company and the city are black boxes. That's almost extremely rare in this day and age. The only other places with that much obfuscation in this day and age are Mainland China and North Korea... and "Heartland City".

A little, yeah. We don't hear much about Duel Spirits or Psychics in Maiami City and I guess that's a pretty big deal out here? So I thought it might be interesting to learn about. Plus, uh...I thought Team Spirit was really cool in the WRGP, which is one of the few major tournaments we did get.

Yeah...they're kinda shifty, aren't they!? But I dunno how you could really find out more, even if you went to Maiami and directly asked them...

Yes they are. Domino and the main Duel Academy both have a checkered history with spirits and Psychic/Supernatural Duelists.

Leo Corp blocks transmission of tournaments? I'm assuming no explanation why?

... Why, are the upper management known for secrecy?

I dunno if it's blocked by Leo Corporation or what, but stuff like the Real Genex Tournament from a few years ago? We didn't get that on TV. I mean, it's fine, since we tend to be focused more on Action Duels anyway, but it's still weird! So, the WRGP was a pretty big deal for us.

Well, I guess I'm just guessing...if you can't find much info on Maiami City and Leo Corporation, they're probably not gonna be that much more upfront about it in person...although if they wanna partner up with your guys' foundation, I guess they could be?

Something to look into what's going on with your hometown with this whole deal.

... So far further e-mails, faxes and phone calls have been elusive outside of automated messaging.

So they are acting shifty!

I take it back. You should totally go down there and ask them your questions face to face.

... I don't have a car and I have a job that kind of makes doing that, myself, rather difficult.

But I think someone from the foundation should look into this, yes.

Oh yeeeah...it's pretty far away, isn't it.

Well...I hope you get some answers from them, one way or the other! It kinda bugs me that they can do whatever they want without explaining it to anybody.

But. If they're gonna help you're organization, I hope you can reach a good conclusion, too.

Lets hope, and someone with our organization should be able to handle it.

Anyways, thank you, Miss Hiiragi.

You're welcome! Good luck with everything!
