 **EXPLANATORY NOTE**

This Amendment No. 13 is being filed solely for the purpose of filing Exhibit 23.1, the Consent of MaloneBailey, LLP, to this registration statement on Form F-1, or the Registration Statement, and amending and restating the exhibit index set forth in Part II of the Registration Statement. No changes have been made to the Registration Statement other than this explanatory note as well as revised versions of the cover page and Part II of the Registration Statement. This Amendment No. 13 does not contain a copy of the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, which remains unchanged from Amendment No. 12 to the Registration Statement filed on August 22, 2025, and consists only of the cover page, this explanatory note and Part II of the Registration Statement.

**PART II**

**INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS**

**Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.**

Article 330 of the Companies Act of Japan (which we refer to as the "Companies Act") makes the provisions of Part III, Chapter 2, Section 10 of the Civil Code of Japan applicable to the relationship between us and our directors and corporate auditors. Section 10 of the Civil Code, among other things, provides in effect that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Any
 director or corporate auditor of a company may demand advance payment of expenses considered necessary for the management of the
 affairs of such company entrusted to the director or corporate auditor;

2. If
 a director or a corporate auditor of a company has defrayed any expenses considered necessary for the management of the affairs of
 such company entrusted to the director or corporate auditor, the director or corporate auditor may demand reimbursement therefor
 and interest thereon after the date of payment from such company;

3. If
 a director or a corporate auditor has assumed an obligation necessary for the management of the affairs of such company, the director
 or corporate auditor may require such company to perform it in the director or corporate auditor's place or, if it is not due,
 to furnish adequate security; and

4. If
 a director or a corporate auditor, without any fault on the director or corporate auditor's part, sustains damage through the
 management of the affairs of such company, the director or corporate auditor may demand compensation therefor from such company.

Pursuant to Articles 29 and 39 of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company and pursuant to Article 427 of the Companies Act, the Company may enter into agreements with non-executive directors and corporate auditors to limit their liability to the Company with respect to loss or damage caused by their acts stipulated in Article 423 of the Companies Act, respectively. However, the amount of such limited liability shall be the minimum liability limit stipulated by laws and regulations. Currently, there is no "non-executive director" under the Companies Act. Toyotaka Nagamori (Chief Executive Officer of Libera Gaming Operations, Inc.), and Seiji Yokogoshi (Chief Financial Officer of Libera Gaming Operations, Inc.) are "executive" directors, Hiroshi Tamura is director under the Companies Act. However, we intend to appoint Ferdinand Groenewald as an independent director effective upon the successful listing of our common shares on the Nasdaq.

In addition, our articles of incorporation include limitation of liability provisions, pursuant to which we can exempt, by resolution of our board of directors, our independent directors and corporate auditors from liabilities arising in connection with any failure to execute their respective duties in good faith or due to simple negligence (excluding gross negligence and willful misconduct), within the limits stipulated by applicable laws and regulations including Article 426, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act.

We maintain, at our expense, a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy for each of our directors and corporate auditors. The policy insures each of our directors and corporate auditors against certain liabilities that they may incur in their capacity as a director or corporate auditor.

**Item 7. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.**

**Historical Common Equity Transactions**

Since 2013, the Company engaged in the following unregistered stock issuances:

● On
 October 21, 2023, the Company allotted 379,234 stock acquisition rights to HeartCore in exchange for services rendered as a consultant
 in connection with the proposed initial public offering of the Company under grants authorized by our shareholders and directors
 in substitution for the Warrant executed as of March 13, 2023 between the Company and HeartCore. The stock acquisition right is exercisable
 from November 1, 2023 to October 31, 2033 upon the condition that the IPO has been completed. The stock acquisition right has an
 exercise price of ¥1(US$0.01) per common share.

We believe that each of the following issuances was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act regarding sales by an issuer in offshore transactions. No underwriters were involved in these issuances of securities.

\* Filed herewith. <br> \*\* Filed previously. <br> † Includes management contracts and compensation plans and arrangements

**Item 9. Undertakings.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The
 undersigned registrant (which we refer to as the "Registrant") hereby undertakes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To
 file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To
 include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To
 reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
 post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
 forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if
 the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end
 of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20%
 change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
 registration statement; and

(iii) To
 include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
 or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
| (4) | To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided that the Registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. |
| (5) | That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: |
|  | The Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any
 preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the
 Securities Act;

(ii) Any
 free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the Registrant or used or referred to by the Registrant;

(iii) The
 portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the Registrant or its
 securities provided by or on behalf of the Registrant; and

(iv) Any
 other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the Registrant to the purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Insofar
 as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
 of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
 therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant
 of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
 suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
 the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
 of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
 will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c) The
 Registrant hereby undertakes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) That,
 for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as
 part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A under the Securities Act and contained in a form of prospectus filed
 by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
 statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) That,
 for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
 shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
 at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
