Nirvana Top Laner, Reborn Tokyo Girl

Chapter 235, Section 232: A Frenzied Collection of SC!

It gives the impression that there's nowhere to praise it.

This reinforces the existing prejudice against 369.
Or rather, because of LPL's poor performance in the past two years, a segment of viewers who have become disappointed with the entire LPL are celebrating even more.

[Shimamura-san, you don't have to praise me if you don't want to]

Wait, what exactly is this praising?

[I didn't think Shimamura was being sarcastic at first, but now I really think she might be.]

[I'm starting to lose it, to be honest. I didn't think there was anything wrong with it at first, but seeing Shimamura-san trying so hard to praise me just made me unable to stand it.]

Honestly, if you let Shimamura play against 369's Ornn, and instead played a champion like Fiora, it would probably be a complete stomp.

[Without Fiora, Shimamura's Fiora is like cheating. Just play Vladimir, or pick a champion like Vladimir or Gwent to whip around like a spinning top, treating the enemy top laner like a toilet while she farms. Shimamura is really good at that.]

[That's true, Shimamura-nee really knows how to handle this kind of rotten meat.]

Seeing Shimamura praising 369's Ornn like this makes me uneasy. Shimamura has crushed countless Sion players at Worlds.

As the audience has said.

Putting aside other heroes, let's just talk about Sion.

At the World Championship, almost all teams would not dare to pick this role against CFO.

The training teams of these teams are afraid of one consequence: picking Sion and ending up with a top laner getting ganked and having an unmanageable carry.

Opposite to Shimamura, no top laner dares to pick a tank; if they do, they're guaranteed to get crushed.

The phrase "Shimamura Yuna's Love Meat TV" has become a widely circulated meme online.

In this situation, she seized the opportunity to lavish praise on 369's Sion, exclaiming how amazing and skilled 369 was, even from some rather far-fetched angles.

It would be difficult for the audience not to find it funny.

Shimamura quickly realized the problem as well.

And I calmed down a bit.

Her thinking has finally gotten back on track, and she has realized a problem.

"No, no, no. It's not because of anything I said that the audience is stirring things up; it's because the audience wants to stir things up that they're watching to see what I said."

"In situations like this, the more I say, the more mistakes I make. The best course of action is to say as little unnecessary stuff as possible and just speak normally."

If she had realized this problem from the beginning, the pace would still be under control, and her own commentary rhythm would be much more normal.

But they only realized this problem now and turned back halfway.
That feels a bit dangerous.

That's right.

From that moment on, Shimamura Yuna suddenly stopped talking altogether.

Although he didn't try to praise her anymore, he also didn't speak normally; instead, he fell silent almost completely.

For a moment, the audience thought she had fallen into the toilet.

Many viewers expressed their confusion in the live chat.

【Wait, Shimamura-san, where are you?】

[Shimamura-san, where did you go? Did you drop your microphone?]

Why aren't you saying anything?

[Shimamura-nee, hurry up and speak!]

Seeing the comments urging her to speak, Shimamura Yuna realized that she couldn't just disappear without saying a word while she was live streaming.

But
What can be said?

If I speak out, it will be over-interpreted; if I don't speak out, people will say I'm too silent.

That.
"Um, well..."

"This play was...not bad."

"This team fight was... well, you know..."

She hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.

Before each sentence, pause and think about what can be said and what cannot be said.

Before each speech, I have to carefully go over what I'm going to say in my mind to see if it's appropriate or if it will sound strange.

The problem is, her brain isn't exactly quick at processing these kinds of things.

She is even slightly slower than normal people; what a normal person can think of in 2 seconds, she might need 5 seconds to do.

This meant that by the time she finished processing her words and wanted to say something, the game footage had already moved past that part.

So he had no choice but to swallow back the words he had prepared.

After all this back and forth, the result was that in the end, there was nothing left to say.

Basically, most of the time, I think about something, then realize it's too late and there's no need to say it, so I hold it back.
The next scene appears, and I start thinking about what to say and processing it again, only to find that the timeliness has passed again.

He can only occasionally offer a complete evaluation or explanation.

At other times, he would stammer, "Um, that..." or "Uh..."

And so on, and that was the end of it.

This situation is, of course, disastrous for a live stream.

From a commentary perspective, it could also be described as a complete work error.

But Shimamura Yuna doesn't do much live streaming anymore.

She's not a professional commentator either.

She has another identity.

She is the strongest top laner in the world.

She is currently the most watched top laner in Riot Games and even the world.

Her words are always given another layer of meaning.

Therefore, all the pauses, all the hesitations, and all the unspoken words will be interpreted.

Oh my god, is Shimamura-nee speechless now?

[I'm dying of laughter. Every time we see Shimamura making a move, she stammers and hesitates. Is she thinking, "What the hell are these noobs doing?"]

[It's true, Shimamura-san seems genuinely speechless. Has she been fed up with these two teams making fun of each other?]

[Anyway, these two teams definitely can't beat the MSI CFO, without a doubt.]

[I'm not saying this to be mean, but TheShy's Rumble is really not as good as Shimamura's right now. But 369's Sion is definitely better than Shimamura's.]

I admit that 369 plays Sion better than Shimamura. I don't know if Shimamura's body is too muscular or if she just doesn't enjoy playing, but she definitely hasn't played much.

[Shimamura-san said she wouldn't play Renekton before, but she brought it out in a crucial game and completely crushed GENG. Whether she's bad at some heroes or simply doesn't want to play them, it's hard to say until she actually picks them.]

[For others, not playing means they don't know how. But regarding Shimamura, I have reservations. I really don't think 369's Sion or Ornn are necessarily better than Shimamura's. I'm saying, is it possible that Shimamura doesn't pick tanky champions because they can't deal damage or carry the team?]

[Shimamura completely dominates Sion no matter what she plays, while TheShy doesn't have the same dominance against 369's Sion. From this perspective, TheShy's play is indeed inferior to Shimamura's.]

It's hard to say whether TheShy at his peak could compare to Ueshima Mura, but he definitely can't at this stage.

I really want to see TheShy at his peak play against Shimamura at her peak.

Yes, even Shimamura Yuna's silence can provide material for interpretation.

To put it bluntly, at this stage, what Shimamura Yuna says is no longer relevant. After she initially misjudged the situation and made some verbal mistakes, whatever she says or tries to make amends afterward will be seen as deliberate and easily interpreted by everyone.

Moreover, Shimamura Yuna herself is indeed not good at hiding her emotions.

Some veteran actors may not be able to tell what they are thinking or feeling; they don't show it on their faces during live broadcasts, no matter what they are thinking.

But Shimamura Yuna wasn't quite up to the task.

Her deliberate actions, her silence, her every move, and every word are all easily read by the audience to convey her emotions.

Therefore, it's meaningless.

And just like that, the entire live stream became a carnival for the viewers.

Yuna Shimamura kept trying to adjust her way of expressing herself.

But viewers can always find new angles to satisfy their expectations of "world champion's sharp commentary on spinning tops".

All her adjustments, however, only served to create a more obvious and contrived effect for the show.

To put it bluntly, it was a bit deliberate.

But this kind of deliberate act, in this situation, actually creates an excellent program effect for the audience.

In the past, Shimamura Yuna's live streams would have a large audience for the first hour or two, but the audience would gradually decrease as the stream progressed.

The underlying logic is that Shimamura Yuna's live streams are too boring.

Some people watch her live streams because of her fame, just to satisfy their curiosity.

However, after the effects of this fame wore off, Shimamura Yuna's live streams failed to consistently meet viewers' expectations for "interesting live stream content."

As a result, people will leave because they are bored, or choose not to continue watching because they find it uninteresting.

But this time is different.

During this live stream, Shimamura Yuna didn't say more than before.

Because most of them got stuck halfway through their sentences.

Most of what they say are just interjections like "um," "uh," and "sigh."

But as the live streams continued, the number of viewers actually increased.

The audience is growing little by little.

The number of SCs and captains in the live stream is also soaring.

Previously, although she had many captains in her live stream, the number of SCs was actually just average.

After all, she usually doesn't reply to SC messages. For the audience, these messages don't offer any emotional value, so there's no point in sending them.

But today, people are sending SC not to get the streamer to reply, but simply to create some fun in the live stream.

Various psychology experts began using SC to express their views, analyzing how Shimamura Yuna, as a streamer, expressed contempt, disdain, and contempt towards the top laners on both sides during this BO3 series.

Roughly estimated, at least several hundred to several thousand SCs were collected that night, just at the 30 yuan price tag.

Some people even complained that there were too many 30-yuan SCs and that their own posts couldn't be seen, so they chose to post more expensive 100-yuan or 500-yuan SCs to express their opinions.

Shimamura Yuna, who did not intend to rely on this to create a dramatic effect for the show, unintentionally produced the most amazing result.

Or rather, the show's appeal doesn't lie in Shimamura Yuna herself.

The real purpose is for these bullet comments to entertain themselves.

The comments section is using Shimamura Yuna's words as material to create memes and emotional value for themselves.

These interesting comments attracted more viewers, who began to look forward to "what Shimamura Yuna will say next, and what kind of antics these comments will create in the live stream."

This perfectly positive interaction cycle between the streamer and the comments section allowed Shimamura Yuna's live stream to reach a very subtle level at this moment.

As Shimamura Yuna watched the growing number of viewers in the live stream, the increasingly explosive barrage of comments, and the increasingly terrifying remarks from many people, she felt a little sweaty.

So, after watching the first match, she chose to leave immediately and stopped broadcasting.

Of course, having learned from her experience, she wasn't the first one to leave immediately after finishing a short broadcast.

If the show ends right after the first segment, then the audience might have all sorts of interpretations.

The claim that "Shimamura Yuna couldn't stand the trashy match and just ran away" is false.

She dutifully watched the entire BO3 series, including the whole process of TES defeating IG 2:1, and finally gave a rather conservative and moderate evaluation.

He said, "It was a really exciting match, very entertaining."

"Whether it's TES or IG, they are both strong teams in the LPL, and they are very capable."

Then, unsurprisingly, all the comments below were against it.

What makes it so exciting?

What makes it so appealing?

What makes it strong?

[It was so amazing, so amazing that when you watched the recording, you couldn't even stammer out a single sentence.]

[Shimamura-san originally planned to learn about this season's hero pool and tactics, but after watching it, she said it was all trash and just left.]

[Shimamura-san, if you think the food is bad, just say so, okay? You don't need to be so subtle. We understand.]

I was dying of laughter during today's live stream; everyone in the chat was a master of psychological analysis.

Upon seeing these comments, Shimamura Yuna immediately chose to run away.

"Sigh, I'm a little tired. That's all for today's live stream. I'll be here every night for at least a week."

"I should appear in the live broadcast room around 7 pm China time, after dinner."

"Please stay tuned."

After saying that, she cut off the OBS stream without hesitation, and the live stream screen went black instantly, leaving only the message "The streamer is on his way" in the middle of the Bilibili live stream.

Meanwhile, the pop-up comments on the right side of the webpage were all scrolling question marks.

【? ? ? 】

[How long has it been airing? They've already disappeared?]

[Wait, it's over after watching just one match? Don't you even look at the other teams' matches? There are so many top players in the LPL, shouldn't Shimamura-san give a critique of each one?]

[A classic. Longtime viewers will recognize Lazy Girl Yuna's return.]

[It's truly a classic. Back then, it was classic to work one day on, one day off; classic to be late or leave early; classic to not air without explanation. But seeing Shimamura-san say she's taking a break, I feel that familiar feeling is back.]

[Shimamura-san is back. Oh my god, why is she back in her lazy livestreaming form?]

Regardless of the viewers' complaints, the live broadcast has come to an end.

Being able to leave whenever she wants and cancel broadcasts whenever she wants is a characteristic of Yuna Shimamura.

However, the popularity of the live stream only began to spread after Shimamura Yuna's live stream ended.

Soon, various related clips spread.

The most viewed clip is titled "Shimamura Yuna watches TES vs IG live and says the match is exciting! Both are clashes between strong teams!"

This video captures the essence of Yuna Shimamura's live streams.

That title alone makes me want to laugh.

Where is the clash of titans?
