>[..]as I mentioned during the previous quarter’s Operating Results presentation, we have recognized multiple areas for improvement, for example in Pokémon Masters. For this game, the scale of development, including development costs, was about three times that of a typical game, but I believe there are things we could have done better. We are continuing to work on improving Pokémon Masters.
>Please share the progress in improvements to Pokémon Masters and prospects for next fiscal year
