The cabinets can all turn into girls. Each girl's personality and powers are symbolic of the game.

It turns out the OP made a childhood promise to each girl and all the girls gave him the keys to their coin safes.

The keys are scattered across Japan's different arcades, and OP and girls must beat the games to get the keys back and amass the fortune hidden inside the girls slash cabinets slash both.

However the games in the other arcades are all girls too. The girls from OP's arcade must battle the girls from the other arcades to get the keys back, and also convert the girls to OP's arcade to expand it and take over Japan.

whenever customers try to play games

the game plays them

it's up to Joey Joeslot, arcade walker extraordinaire, to beat the machines and rescue the customers... who are all cute girls in various states of undress so the manga doesn't get cancelled after fifteen chapters.

To be a bit more serious, copying Shinya Shokudo's tone and format would probably work for a game center-focused work. A young man inherits old machines, opens it up, and the story is really about the various customers that come in and play.

The gaijin trying to bring the retro Japanese arcade back to life. The tech-savvy hikikimori hired to fix the machines up. The cute girl staff member who secretly is an expert gamer. The girlfriend's grandmother who always proclaims that the arcade will fail—but who, secretly, is rooting for you. Manga, anime, J-drama, it could be anything and everything!

Aku no Hana end

So what we've learned is Nakamura may have some form of agnosia or could even be Schizophrenic. Then it ends...

I guess... I want a full retelling from Nakamura's perspective? Not really sure what I'm supposed to get out of this ending beyond that.

Duction Man Overall thoughts (ch1-19)

The latest talent and his situation is the most interesting part of this series so far. The romance drama drags it down so far and I had liked how quick they were to swat it down on his side, although I don't think it'll be the same on her side. This is a setting that I've barely seen (nearly at all), with the only thing similar that I can recall is

Spoiler

the arc in Sun-Ken Rock

so it has that going for it.

Finishing chapter 19 I was looking forward to seeing what happened next with Nagai. So long as this series keeps bringing in interesting talent and situations I'll look forward to it.

Sooo there are people out there translating the digitally colored manga (I've seen One Piece and Jojo: Stardust Crusaders).

Maaan, digital coloring just looks weird. There's a massive difference between actual color by the author and color added in.
