Nirvana Top Laner, Reborn Tokyo Girl

Chapter 53, Section 52: VTubers – Money Is Really Easy to Make
After Shimamura Yuna went home to rest for the night, she was stunned once again when she woke up the next morning.

"Huh??? What's going on?"

Looking at her 18 followers and the several times more comments on her only post, she felt dizzy.

Wait, how many times has she been surprised by the rapid increase in her account data after waking up?

After calming down a bit, Shimamura Yuna opened the comments section again and tried to figure out what had happened.

then
It took her almost an hour to slowly piece together the whole story.

"That's how it is."

She now roughly understands that LAST Aiyin, who is always on time and never leaves early, has made another viral video for her, attracting a huge wave of attention.

It seems that every time my popularity has increased, it's because this Aiyin classmate has been creating content for me, and each time the popularity is bigger and more impressive than the last.

Moreover, this time it seems to have attracted an exceptionally large amount of traffic and generated an exceptionally high level of buzz.

Seeing the current situation, Shimamura Yuna had two subconscious thoughts.

My first thought was, "Isn't this putting me on a pedestal?"

Indeed, she considered herself a good person in a general sense, a normal person, and at least her values ​​were much more upright than those of the Dragon God.

However, since that video appeared, these clickbaiters in the comments section have really overestimated themselves.

It's so obvious that they're creating a god for themselves; they're practically making a statue of themselves and worshipping it.

Seeing a bunch of comments like "Yuna really spoke up for us ordinary people," Shimamura Yuna just felt...
'I really hadn't thought that much about it.'

She felt that these people were giving her too much self-worth, to the point that she felt awkward just looking at the comments section of their videos.

On the other hand, such immense popularity also made her a little irrational.

She said in her past life that she didn't care about fame or live streaming.

She said she was only interested in the competition.
However, a large part of the reason is that she was never good at live streaming in the first place, and she was not good at speaking.

People are generally not interested in things they are not good at or that don't give them feedback.

Effort = becoming stronger = better results = being recognized. This more complete feedback chain is easier for her to achieve than becoming more popular through live streaming.

Or
At least it's a clearer path.

But in this life, she can easily gain everyone's attention through live streaming and easily reach heights she never dared to dream of in her previous life.

Suddenly I felt...
'Success is so easily attainable.'

Countless fans and countless comments are waiting for her appearance.

At this moment, she was undoubtedly a true star on the internet.

For a moment, she even thought, "Why don't I just start doing live streaming?"

No more practicing heroes, and no more worrying about how to break out of the comfort zone of a hardcore AP top laner.

I'll play vampires for the rest of my life, Gwen for the rest of my life, and Ryze for the rest of my life.
At most, an angel will come occasionally.

You can make a lot of money just by playing these heroes.

That's enough.

Greed and laziness.

In that instant, these things, which had never been before, flooded her mind.

But after calming down a bit, she quickly banished the thought from her mind.

'We must not be swayed by this kind of thing.'

Don't let temporary shortcuts cloud your judgment.

True brilliance isn't something easily obtained. What you can get easily isn't true brilliance.

With this in mind, Shimamura Yuna corrected her attitude towards live streaming.

It's merely a springboard to approach the target, nothing more.

Then, she went about her daily routine as usual.
Exercise, grocery shopping, cooking, and eating.

After doing all that, I took a nice shower before officially starting the broadcast in the afternoon.

Just one day later, as soon as I opened the live stream, that familiar feeling of the chat immediately hit my nose.

[Holy crap, Yuna, you've finally started streaming!]

Mom, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for ages!

Why didn't you stream yesterday? You only stream for two hours a day, and you even have to work one day on and one day off?!

Lazy dog, lazy dog, lazy dog, lazy dog

[Didn't you say you had some goal to achieve? Didn't you say you had to become famous through live streaming? How can you become famous if you can't even maintain a stable live streaming schedule?]

It's clear that a large portion of the viewers in the live stream who got themselves promoted to Captain are now very dissatisfied.

She was mainly dissatisfied with her livestreaming duration and her inconsistent livestreaming times, and a lot of people in the chat were calling her a lazy dog.

From Shimamura Yuna's perspective, given her health issues and her recent check-up for depression, it's understandable that she wouldn't be doing live streams.

The problem is that the audience doesn't know this.

There is an information gap between her and the audience.

But the problem is
In China's internet environment, you can't really talk about depression.

She could imagine that if she told others she had depression, not only would she not receive much sympathy, but a lot of people would ridicule her.

When the time comes and things start to go smoothly, there might be people deliberately creating their own "jade-like" rice noodles.

Ultimately, there are too many internet celebrities on the Simplified Chinese internet who like to profit from their "YuYu syndrome," leading to the stigmatization of YuYu syndrome and a very low level of trust among netizens.

The first thing people will think when they hear these three words is that you're trying to create a persona.

This put her in a bit of a dilemma.

If I don't say anything, I'll be called a lazy dog; if I do say something, I'll be called a pretentious idiot. What should I do?
After thinking it over, she still felt that she couldn't remain completely silent.

But I can't say it too clearly either.

So all I could do was casually explain, "Well, I suffer from some serious mental illnesses and can't handle high-intensity live streaming. Streaming for too long would harm my health."

"The reason I didn't go live yesterday was because I went to the hospital for a check-up. I hope everyone can understand."

Her explanation was indeed much better than directly saying that she had Yu Yu syndrome.

People started speculating about what mental illness she might have. Some said schizophrenia, some said Yu-Yu syndrome, and others said some other random illness.

But anyway, nobody said she was faking it.

There was even a person who had previously helped them reach the rank of Admiral during a live stream, and immediately sent them 500 yuan as an apology.

[I'm sorry, Yuna, I didn't know you had health problems. I shouldn't have called you a lazy dog.]

One after another, many other people also made a fortune by giving themselves a share of the profits, and several others even became captains.

Seeing these SCs and gifts, Shimamura Yuna couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

Is making money on VTubers really that easy?
