I am so happy that I found this little code.
back in the day when VF2 on the Saturn was state of the art I loved to select the watch mode.
It was a nice way to enjoy the game as an observer uninterrupted to enjoy its graphics.
I so miss this option in many of today's fighting games.

Now with this code the next state of the art VF can be watched uninterrupted.
Enjoy the show as one of the best look games to date shows its self off.
