Bottom-tier voice actress wants to become a big star on VTuber.

Sasaki, also known as Sasaki Saki, is a panda-like character whose only feature is panda clothing.

Like Shiina Yuika, who showed Shimizu Toru and Otogihara Eri yesterday, he's a guy known for his scumbag nature.

Previously, after Nintendo adjusted its rules to allow streamers to earn money by streaming their own games, Saki Sasaki, who had already graduated, chose to return in January.

Of all the members of Nijisanji, only Belmond welcomed her return, and then this person turned around and changed the lyrics to release a song to persecute her.

Huh? It seems like on April Fool's Day, these two even made a marriage announcement and officially tied the knot.

Should I also do a prank livestream on April Fool's Day?

Volume 1: Chapter 11 The Goal is to Become Rainbow Number One

When talking about Nijisanji's April Fool's Day projects, one cannot ignore gender reversal.

Male VTubers are made into feminine characters, female VTubers are made into male characters, and of course, there are also adult men who become shota, older women who become lolis, and even cats and dogs.

Since the first generation members, including Tsukino Miu, only debuted last June, Nijisanji's first April Fool's Day project will be held on the 1st of next month.

The fact that several people, including Jianzhidaozi, Ruco-chan (Suzuki Katsu), and Ya (Kuzuha), all fell into female depravity together clearly indicates that they had the same idea.

Therefore, in order to stand out, Shimizu Toru decided to do the opposite of what others were doing and instead of a moe-ification project, he decided to actually prank people.

—After all, there's no such thing as a one-time thing or an endless series of times when it comes to cross-dressing. If they manage to pull off something like Touko Hanyu this year, then they'll have to make her show up every year from now on.

With twenty days left until April Fool's Day, he had enough time to complete the preliminary preparations for the plan. Although there wasn't much to prepare, he only needed to get the contact information of the person he wanted to prank.

More than an hour later, when Shimizu Toru finally finished building the treehouse, the live stream ended smoothly and successfully without any controversy.

He placed a treehouse, perfectly worthy of the advertising slogan of a high-rise duplex with sea and river views, at the highest point of the cherry blossom tree.

Considering that he doesn't have elytra yet, he even built a water elevator for him to get in and out easily, and for this he even asked Uncle Bei for soul sand.

"It's mostly finished. Tomorrow we'll decorate the interior and add a fish tank or something."

Rubbing her wrist, which ached from clicking the mouse so much, Shimizu Toru waved her character: "Oyasumi~ See you all tomorrow, bye-bye!"

Speaking of which, I'm still using the 1.0 model. I should talk to Jiang tomorrow and ask the company to upgrade my model as soon as possible.

Oh right, there's also 3D modeling and home 3D. Given the current rate of fan proliferation, Silver Shield should be available in about ten days.

This rate of follower growth will not only break the record of Moonlit Rabbit's 35-day silver shield achievement, but also block all newcomers this year.

Even Otogihara Eryo, who gained 220,000 followers throughout the year, saw his follower growth slow down rapidly after gaining 40,000 followers in half a month, and only reached 100,000 followers by the end of June.

—Of course, this was entirely her own doing, such as doing a live broadcast after midnight, forcibly kissing Dota Meiji and Mono no Osamu, etc. It's only natural that she was criticized.

Shimizu Toru's ambitions aren't high; he just hopes to have 300,000 fans by the end of the year, break into the top three of Nijisanji, and replace Kuzuha as the number one.

Given how difficult it is for male VTubers to make a living in the industry, Nijisanji's top male VTuber is basically equivalent to the top male VTuber in the VTuber world, although he still can't squeeze into the top ten.

After taking a 20-minute bath, I thoroughly dried my hair with clean water and fell asleep right before 11:30.

He's the type who falls asleep incredibly fast. While he might not fall asleep the moment his head hits the pillow, he's far superior to those who toss and turn all night, taking an hour to finally fall asleep.

My sleep quality is also excellent. I rarely dream and wake up naturally at 7:30 am, feeling so refreshed that I don't yawn at all.

After washing up, Qingshui Tou started making breakfast; he likes to eat mixed rice noodles in the morning.

Soak the rice noodles overnight, blanch them for about ten seconds after the water boils, and then fry two soft-boiled eggs.

Paired with homemade chili sauce bought from the Chinese owner, the meal can be finished in ten minutes.

Occasionally, if he wants to try something different, he'll make some wontons himself. The nearby dumpling shop sells wonton wrappers, and he can choose to make his own filling.

As the saying goes, good meat shouldn't be used for fillings, good fish shouldn't be cut into sections, good fruit shouldn't be juiced, and good vegetables shouldn't be over-oiled.

Using pork belly to make wontons is a bit extravagant, but since it's for my own consumption, it doesn't matter.

As Xun once said, "Money spent on yourself, especially on food, is definitely not a waste."

"It's still early, let's go for a run."

After nearly two months of recuperation, Qing Shui Tou still didn't have much weight, but he guessed that it was probably due to his constitution. His digestive system was less efficient than others, which ironically made it so that he couldn't gain weight no matter how much he ate.

Compared to when he had to hold onto the wall just to go upstairs, he has now escaped his sub-healthy state and has barely reached the standard of an ordinary person.

Considering that I'll most likely have to hold concerts and solo live performances in the future, I need to address my physical limitations as soon as possible.

Shimizu Toru doesn't expect to become a muscleman. In fact, without the help of Kowloon, it's difficult for the average person to reach the level of a professional bodybuilder.

Besides, if he really developed a muscular physique, wouldn't he become a muscle-bound Barbie like Nezha from Ten Cold Nezha?

Therefore, he decided to only train jogging. He didn't expect to develop abs or biceps. He figured his endurance and lung capacity wouldn't be completely blocked either.

The Ring Fit Adventure is going to be released in a few months, and he doesn't want to be outdone by girls.

—Although there are many people in Nijisanji who can play Ring Fit Adventure for more than ten hours, everyone has to have dreams, otherwise what's the difference between them and a salted fish?

When I got tired of running, I would walk for a while, and when I rested enough, I would continue running. I exercised like this on and off for more than forty minutes, and then I was covered in sweat.

Shimizu Toru returned to the apartment and this time, instead of slowly soaking in the bathtub, he quickly took a shower.

After changing into a gray long-sleeved sweatshirt and putting on a mask, I went out and took the tram to Nijisanji's office in Minato Ward.

Although the company's headquarters is located in Akasaka 9-chome, Minato Ward, it is just a rented, rather cramped office building, and not an entire floor belongs to Nijisanji.

When there are any offline events, I have to go to the other agency that Shimizu Toru is going to today.

For example, there was the double-under jump rope competition at Midori Senryo, the slamming machine game between Shazuki and Sasaki Saki, and later the game "Game?" hosted by Amamiya Kokoro, Maji Mao, and Yami Reina!

ゲーム is actually just "game". It's a word that takes English words, translates them into Romanized English, and then converts them into katakana. Most Japanese people can't stand it.

For example, that famous meme, with its screen full of katakana, who could possibly understand it?.jpg

"Excuse me, may I come in?"

This wasn't Shimizu Toru's first time at this agency. He found a lounge where people were chatting and knocked on the door.

That girl, Jiang, she was the one who reminded me to come to the company today, but now I can't get in touch with her. She's probably still commuting.

In other words, Nijisanji doesn't manage the working hours of its operations staff very strictly, otherwise she would definitely have her salary deducted every day for being late.

"Ah!? Please, please come in!"

A woman's voice, which sounded startled and trembling, responded. When Shimizu Toru pushed open the door, he saw three people.

They weren't particularly tall; after all, the average height of Japanese women in 2019 was only 1.54 meters, but they grew to 158 meters a few years later.

The girls were all about 1.6 meters tall. It was a bit of a shame that two of them had small breasts, and the remaining one could only be considered to have some, but not much.

Indeed, having a youthful appearance is a rare attribute in reality.

Volume 1: Chapter Twelve - First Encounter with the Three Deer

"Excuse me, I'm Toru Hanyu. You must be a newcomer about to debut, right?"

Alone? Could it be?

The girl who spoke earlier is now looking down at the floor the whole time, practically screaming "socially awkward" on her face.

As soon as Shimizu Toru finished speaking, another girl quickly said, "Hello, senior! It's a pleasure to meet you. Please take care of me."

This person's voice is lower than most boys'; if you didn't see their face, you'd probably mistake their gender.

Such a distinctive bass voice immediately confirmed Shimizu Toru's earlier guess: these three were indeed the backbone of Nijisanji's Group 19.

Later, they all had smooth sailing careers and had different types of fans: Liz, Ange, and Xuhai.

Image: "Three Deer", Location: "Images/1751815927-100444248-113550963.jpg"

The first two were clearly closer, sitting right next to each other, no wonder they'd known each other for over a decade as childhood sweethearts.

They're debuting on the 22nd of this month, so it's normal for them to be receiving training at the agency right now.

After all, after the unification, Nijisanji has transformed from a provider of face-capture apps that originally intended to sell pickaxes into a talent agency.

The approach of letting people fend for themselves without even teaching them how to do live streaming, as was done in the early days, is bound to be phased out.

“I am Lise Heluesta, and this is my contemporary Angelina, and I am in bed with Inu-kai.”

Despite being so nervous that she was stuttering, Lize bravely stepped forward and took on the task of introducing herself and the other two to Shimizu Toru.

No wonder she was able to become the host of many official events later on; this ability to control the stage was something she had before her debut.

"I am Xu Hai bed, please give me your guidance."

The moment the dog spoke, it startled Shimizu Toru. Her voice was just as low as Ange's, and it would be hard to tell them apart if they spoke at the same time.

This is a bit different from the Cerberus he remembered, who spoke softly but sang very well. He wondered if he hadn't decided on his livestreaming style yet.

The four of them met up like friends from an online group, and none of them took the initiative to introduce themselves, which is in line with the behavioral rules of the anime and manga community.

"Did the three of you debut on the same day? How about I come up with a group name for you?"

While there are also "three idiots" in the entertainment industry—referring to Yu Yokoyama, Shingo Murakami, and Subaru Shibuya from Johnny & Associates—this nickname really suits Rize and the others.

Even if they fail the multiplication table of VTuber newcomer assessment when the three of them collaborate for the first time, they will most likely still get this nickname, and then open Pandora's box for their subsequent group debut.

"A group name? Great! Senior, what do you think?" Anjie enthusiastically chimed in, waving her little hand as she spoke.

That's right, she's the type who won't speak if you hold her hand down.

"How about 'Sanba Ga'? It's simple, easy to remember, and it even makes fun of Shibuya Subaru and the others."

"Huh!? Three, three deer? Do we look like idiots?" Liz, who had been staring at her toes, finally looked up when she heard this.

—Then I was suddenly struck by the handsome Shimizu Toru, who hadn't taken off his mask the whole time, and I realized I was having trouble breathing.

The second princess of the Kingdom of He immediately let out a magnificent soprano cry: "Ahhh!! Ka, Kaku-i!!"

"Hiss—he is indeed very handsome, but isn't Lizard's reaction a bit too exaggerated?"

After taking a deep breath of cold noodles, Anjie tried her best to salvage her friend's image: "Please believe me, senior, she's not usually like this!"

Shimizu Toru nodded with a smile, saying with interest, "It's alright, it's quite interesting, and it greatly satisfied my ego."

Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. After apologizing to the three of them, he walked aside to answer the call.

The caller was none other than his unreliable operations manager, whose name, Sauce, perfectly reflected his personality: "Tou-kun, I'm almost at the company~ Have you left yet?"

"I'm already waiting for you at the office. Did you oversleep again today? How many times has this happened?"

"Hehehe~" Jiang chuckled and chose to get away with being cute.

Since the other party was almost there, Shimizu Toru decided to go to the front desk to wait, lest that idiot couldn't find her again.

"The person I'm waiting for has arrived. See you next time, bye-bye~"

After waving to the three of them, Shimizu Toru suddenly turned to Inu-kai before leaving and said, "Your voice is becoming a bit similar to Ange's. I suggest you use the Kansai dialect for your live streams in the future, and you can also make the style calmer and more soothing."

"Ah?? I, I understand, thank you for reminding me, senior."

Because I saw the news about Higuchi Kaede's solo concert, I decided to sign up for Nijisanji's new talent recruitment. Before that, I knew nothing about VTubers.

After sincerely thanking Shimizu Toru, I decided to discuss with the operations team later how to put this suggestion into practice.

Before debuting, newcomers undergo internal test live streams. Those who don't say a word for one or two hours and can't even see the comments posted by staff pretending to be viewers are naturally not suitable for this career.

After all, the audience is the lifeblood of streamers. If you don't give any feedback and don't even say thank you for sending coins in your live stream, who would be willing to spend money in your live stream?

"Tou-kun~ You look so handsome today too. By the way, why don't you just pretend to have a live stream mishap and show your face directly?"

Hearing Jiang's brilliant idea, Shimizu Toru pouted in annoyance: "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

"Wow!? What a sharp retort! Is this the legendary Chinese-style cursing?"

"...If you really want to hear it, I can grant you this small wish and guarantee that no one in your family will escape unscathed."

Just kidding. Although Shimizu Toru isn't from the Zaun region, the Chinese server is pretty much the same in every region. If you make a mistake, your parents will be in immediate danger.

Before, at least you could mute everyone by selecting /mute all as soon as you entered the game. But after the game added built-in voice chat, the method changed from typing on the keyboard to directly yelling, which was a real pain for my ears.

So random battles are better, since nobody's competitive spirit is high and nobody complains if you mess up.

It even took Jiang half a minute to figure out what it meant that no one could escape the fate of the household registration book.

Then she quickly shook her head and said, "Then, then let's forget about it. My family loves me very much, and I can't let them suffer this undeserved misfortune."

"I knew your family must be very happy, otherwise how could you have been raised like this?"

"Hmph~ Of course, my parents have never argued or scolded me."

After boasting smugly, Jiang finally realized, "Wait! Were you just calling me stupid?"
