Yah it's because the cutscenes aren't there yet. Bumping your chat to 99 autocompletes the quest btw just like before. It shows up in the completed quest log in all Japanese. Kanji translated to basically Final Test, though I couldn't figure out what a kanji character for "after, later" was doing in there. If you try to view the CSs at the NPC in Gardens they show up in the list in Japanese and selecting them just turns your screen black. Have to view another CS in the list to get your screen back.
