The video begins with a 27-second classic "no signal" screen that then fades to black and white, displaying a junkyard image with the text "NNN臨時放送" ("NNN Extraordinary/Special Broadcast"). The screen then shows a scrolling list of names and ages of individuals, followed by an eerie edited image of a child and [[Jeff the Killer]] with a high-pitched beep sound effect. The video fades to black, shows the message "明日の犠牲者はこの方々です (These will be the tomorrow victims)," fades to black once more, and then displays the image of the child. The entire video has a duration of 5 minutes and 4 seconds.

Then, a list showing the name and the age of some persons appears on the screen. When the list ends, an image of a child appears after 2 minutes, but without any scream.

==Background==
 
The "NNN Special Broadcast" is a well-known urban legend in Japan that describes a mysterious video that appears after each late-night transmission. The legend involves a list of names that appears on the screen accompanied by creepy music and a dark atmosphere. At the end of the broadcast, the message "These will be the tomorrow victims. Good night." is displayed. The urban legend has three variations: the first involves a mysterious video that shows the name of a person and cannot be switched off, the second involves the viewer's name appearing at the end of the list, indicating their imminent death, and the third version involves a monotonous voice reciting the list of names, followed by an eye watching the viewer for five minutes.
== '''The Urban legend''' ==
'''NNN Extra Broadcast''' is also a japanese urban legend. It says that '''"''a mysterious video flows after the end of each late-night transmission''"'''. At the end of some nocturnal transmissions, suddenly a list with the name of some persons begins to roll like a staff roll, together with a dark atmosphere and classic creepy music, and finally the message '''"''These will be the tomorrow victims. Good night.''" (Japanese: 明日の犠牲者はこの方々です、おやすみなさい)''' is shown on the screen.
 
There are three versions of this urban legend: the first is that when you are watching TV at night, a mysterious video suddenly appears and shows the name of some persons, and you can't switch the channel. The second is that your name appears at the end of the list, and you may die tomorrow because of that. The third version says that you can hear a monotone voice repeating the name of each person that is in the list, and then, an image of an eye suddenly appears watching you, it will still for 5 minutes.
 
The legend was inspired in the '''"[https://screamer.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Commercials ''commercials'']"''' of the NNN news network, which when a very important event occurs in Japan, all stations of the NNN network have their broadcast paralyzed to announce the incident, and at the end of the '''"''[https://screamer.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Commercials commercial]''"''' they leave a list of people who have lost their lives in the incident.
 
In the urban legend '''"''NNN Extra Broadcast''"''', things are different. The broadcast of any television network '''(not just NNN)''' is interrupted to show a list of people who are going to die tomorrow, strangely this list proclaims itself to be something of NNN, probably has the intent to parody the fact that NNN makes a list to advertise the deaths of a certain incident.
 
The urban legend became pretty famous on 2ch, and people started to spread rumors and more versions about it. It was also referenced in the light novel/manga [https://myanimelist.net/manga/46714/Shuuen_no_Shiori Shuuen no Shiori]'''(and the legend was also referenced in some of its music videos, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_qq_rdnl-4 like this one])'''.
 
== '''Stories''' ==
* '''First version''':


The urban legend was inspired by the commercials of the NNN news network, where all NNN stations interrupt their broadcasts to announce significant incidents in Japan. At the end of these commercials, a list of people who lost their lives in the event is displayed. Another version of the urban legend called "NNN Extra Broadcast" claims that the broadcast of any television network, not just NNN, will be interrupted to show a list of people who will die the following day. This version is a parody of the fact that NNN displays a list of people who lost their lives in an incident. The urban legend became popular on the Japanese online forum 2ch, and various rumors and versions of the story began to spread. The urban legend was referenced in the light novel/manga "Shuuen no Shiori," as well as some of its music videos.
