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

Lisa, who immediately lost her composure, retorted to Mimi Usagi before switching back to her businessy voice and continuing to say to Noah Kurumi, "Noah-chan, I don't care~"

"Long time no see~ I've missed you guys so much these past few days!"

We miss you so much too!

Having not seen each other for over a month, the four of them seemed to have endless things to talk about. Holding hands, they sat together and began whispering to each other.

The internal environment of VSTPO is probably the best among many VTuber companies; no one graduated or retired until 25.

The members also get together to play games every day, and even those who later transferred from individual groups to the company are treated equally without any favoritism.

Unlike Nijisanji, which is a completely nurturing and training organization where those with more fans and better performance can actually receive more resources.

Just like this paradoxical society, the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, to the point that some people would rather graduate and reincarnate as independents than continue to stay in Nijisanji.

After they chattered away for over half an hour, finally running out of things to talk about, Shimizu Toru finally asked the question that had been nagging at her for so long:

"Lisa is the 'young lady' type, and Mimi/Taya is probably the 'tsundere' type, so what's your role, Hinano?"

"Huh? Me, am I usually very tsundere?" Usagi Mimi was clearly taken aback when she heard him say that he was the tsundere.

"Like Misaka Mikoto, she's more arrogant at times, but she's also very cute when she's being coquettish."

As everyone knows, the originator of the fake tsundere archetype: Asuka.

The true progenitor of tsundere: Vegeta.

"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮ Even if you say I'm cute, I won't be happy!" After huffing, Usagi Mimi turned her head away with a smug look on her face.

"Pfft~ Where did Chopper come from?" Everyone couldn't help but laugh at this standard arrogant statement.

After a bit of laughter and banter, Lisa revealed the truth: "Hinano is the yandere type, you know? Didn't expect that, did you?"

"Yandere? I didn't sense it at all, but I did sense the tsundere."

Seeing that Shimizu Toru didn't believe her, Lisa took out her Twitter account and handed him Hinano's first tweet: "She's really the yandere type! Look at her first tweet if you don't believe me."

"oisu~ Has everyone been waiting long? It's Hinano from Iris Black Games~ Her gaming skills are second to none 'Rifle'."

Unexpectedly, Shimizu Toru read it out loud, and Tachibana Hinano, whose sense of shame exploded instantly, let out a shrill soprano scream and tried to snatch Lisa's phone: "What the hell! Are you kidding me?!"

Unfortunately for her, Lisa, who had anticipated her moves, shoved the phone into Shimizu Toru's hand and then, grinning, hid behind Kurumi Noa, egging her on: "Toru-kun, continue! You haven't finished reading yet, hahaha~"

"Stop it! If you keep this up, I'm really going to get angry!" Tachibana Hinano, whose feet were practically digging a three-bedroom apartment, quickly changed his target.

However, due to the height difference, Shimizu Toru only raised her hand slightly, and she failed again: "www Don't rush, let me see what's written on the back."

"Oyster! If you keep saying that, Toru-kun, we'll have to break up!"

Upon hearing this, Shimizu Toru's first thought was—what kind of position is this when it comes to breaking up?

Cough cough, it's all those silly netizens' fault. They have nothing better to do than distort the meanings of various words, making it impossible for him to look at certain idioms the same way now.

But Tachibana Hinano clearly forgot that besides him, she also had three good sisters by her side.

As the saying goes, when there is danger, your brothers are your most reliable support, but when you are safe, your brothers can be your greatest source of danger.

Just as Shimizu Tohru agreed not to read it anymore, Usagi Mimi, Elise, and Kurumi Noa huddled together and read the second half of it aloud on her phone:

"I'm planning to crush all the VTubers, and I'll work hard, so you absolutely have to come see me! If you don't, I might have a seizure~ Knife~?~"

"Hey (＃`O′)! Are you kidding me, you bunch of guys!!"

Unexpectedly betrayed by her best friends, Tachibana Hinano blushed, unsure whether it was from anger or embarrassment.

This kind of thing, where someone reads out your cringeworthy QQ space posts from ten years ago, is just as socially humiliating as having your browser history published. If this happened to me, I'd probably flee the planet overnight.

"www, Touken, help! Hinano is going to kill someone!"

Because she read out the second half of the tweet, Usagi Mimi, who had firmly held onto the hatred, immediately performed a "Qin King circling the pillar" maneuver.

Using Shimizu's various dodges and weaves, she would occasionally stick her tongue out at Tachibana Hinano and make a face, creating a chaotic scene.

"Alright, alright~ stop provoking her. Otherwise, if she really gets stabbed tonight, don't blame me for not helping you, okay?"

Upon hearing the word "knife," Tachibana Hinano, who was still chasing after Usaki Mimi, couldn't help but throw a punch at him: "I almost forgot about you! You're the one who started this!"

Shimizu Toru, who had just been playfully punched in the chest, spread her hands and said, "How can you blame me? It was Lisa-san who showed it to me."

"I did show it to you, but I didn't tell you to read it aloud, Tou-kun. I'm not taking the blame for this."

Seeing that he was shifting the blame onto her, Lisa quickly tried to distance herself from the situation, but unfortunately, as the instigator, Hinano Tachibana had already set his sights on her.

"Lisa-chan~ Today I'll show you whether I'm a yandere or not!!"

"Waaaaah—Help! Tou-kun, please save me!!"

"No one can save you, Sine—"

Volume 1: Chapter 149 Bigamy? It's simple, just don't get married.

After a while of playful banter, the group finally boarded the plane at 10 a.m.

Usagi Mimi and the others originally planned to buy economy class tickets, since they had only debuted a few months ago and were still relatively strapped for cash.

Shimizu Toru couldn't bring herself to sit in first class while they squeezed into economy class, so she bought their tickets as well when booking.

Seeing Noah looking around curiously, Lisa couldn't help but ask, "Noah, is this your first time on an airplane?"

"Yeah, after all, plane tickets are expensive. I used to rarely even take the Shinkansen. Every time I went back to my hometown, my dad would drive for several hours to take us back."

Although the three members of the Tachibana family are not from wealthy families, their family conditions are undoubtedly much better than those of Nutto Noya. At least they are not at the point where the power would trip when they boil water during a live stream.

"Don't worry, I think your company is doing quite well. Maybe it will become the second largest box company after Nijisanji in the future."

Upon hearing Shimizu Toru's prediction, Usaki Mimi exclaimed in disbelief: "A second box? We don't even have many silver shields right now."

Even the earliest debuting Hanaya sisters only reached 100,000 followers thanks to VSL and the traffic generated by the top male V in the industry.

Hinano Tachibana, Mimi Usagi, and Kurumi Noa also took the opportunity to enter the public eye, and with their own unique characteristics, they are only one step away from the Silver Shield.

"Who can predict the future? Maybe hundreds of thousands of followers will only be considered average, and the highest number could reach four million?"

Before Shimizu Toru's time travel, because Gura announced her graduation and retirement, Bo Zhong Marin, who was originally ranked second, became the new number one V with 400 million followers.

At the time, Kuzuha, the Nijisanji fan club with the most fans, only had less than two million. It can only be said that the high-quality hand-drawn MVs and original songs that Captain invested real money in were indeed worth the money.

"Four, four million? Tou-kun, what you're saying is way too exaggerated. It's hard to say whether there are even four million people watching VTubers in all of Japan."

Although the top 20 members of Nijisanji alone have nearly four million followers, most of them are obviously people who follow even if they are not fans of Nijisanji.

After all, compared to the extremely rare genuine fans, it's more common in the industry for fans to follow dozens or even hundreds of verified accounts simultaneously.

Seeing that Lisa didn't believe him, Shimizu Toru simply smiled and said, "Who knows what the future holds?"

Even the prime minister could be taken away in the street, making Tetsuya Yamagami's name known around the world overnight, and people still talk about it years later.

If Trump hadn't liked to shake his head while speaking, the timeline might have branched off in a different way. So, as a certain running shoe advertisement says, anything is possible.

Soon after, the plane gradually began to accelerate on the runway. If it were Shandong Airlines, everyone would know what it means to take off like a spring.

Unfortunately, he couldn't exchange them, so Shimizu Toru handed everyone a piece of chewing gum and then switched his phone to airplane mode as instructed by the flight attendant.

"Tou~ I'm sleepy." Nutto Noah probably didn't sleep well last night because she was too excited, and couldn't help but yawn.

"Didn't you bring an eye mask in your bag? Just lean on my shoulder and sleep. I'll wake you up when we get to Hakodate."

"Hmm~ Eurasia Smith~"

Nutto Noa is probably the most girlfriend-like person among all the people Shimizu Toru knows. Not only is she beautiful and has a cute voice, but she is also very clingy.

In addition, they are both thin-skinned and easily embarrassed, so their daily interactions really have the feel of first love, while Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion are more like an old married couple.

Once the plane climbed above the clouds and began to fly steadily, Nutto put on an eye mask and earplugs, and started to catch up on sleep while hugging Shimizu Tomo's arm.

Seeing this, Tachibana Hinano, who was sitting to his left, lowered her voice and asked, "Toru-kun, are you dating Noah?"

"Yes, it's incredible, but Noah did take the initiative back then."

Having probably noticed his special relationship with Lily and the others shortly after moving in, Nutto Noah seemed quite conflicted a few days ago.

Later, I don't know what came to his mind, but during one of their private moments, he boldly kissed Shimizu Toru on the cheek.

She expressed her desire to join their family and said she wouldn't mind if he was dating several women at the same time, as long as he didn't show favoritism.

"Then, what about you, Lily-san, and Takamiya-san?" Tachibana Hinano was utterly shocked, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"They're also in a romantic relationship, and they get along very well."

Because of the differences in perception between men and women, Xiyang Lili and her friends would sometimes team up to criticize Qingshui Tou for some of his overly straight male traits.

"Huh!? Then, wouldn't you be committing bigamy? You'll be arrested, right??"

"It's simple, just don't get married, right? If they insist on getting married, I can just get divorced a few more times."

Given the current environment in Japan, where the low birth rate has become a reason for creating harems and even nationwide music parties, it's uncertain whether Lily and her friends will be willing to have children in the future.

If you don't have children, then getting married or not is obviously irrelevant, since you don't need to register the child's birth.

—Fun fact: By 2024, Japan will have only about 600,000 newborns per year, while the death rate will be over 1.2 million.

As a test server for the University of Tokyo, although the total population of the University of Tokyo is several times that of Japan, the issue of low birth rate has been brought to the forefront.

"I never expected Noah to get such a good deal. I should have moved in with her too!"

Hinano puffed out her cheeks, looked up into Toru Shimizu's eyes, and asked, "Toru-kun, what do you think of me?"

"Huh? Why are you asking this suddenly?"

Fortunately, Shimizu Toru wasn't the kind of clueless male protagonist you see in anime; he quickly realized what was going on: "You want to be with Noah too?"

"Yes! I really like you, Tou-kun. Your voice, appearance, and personality perfectly match my criteria for a partner!"

After saying that, Tachibana Hinano muttered under her breath, "Of course, it would be even better if you were more devoted to one person."

Although the voice was very soft, the two were sitting side by side, so Shimizu Toru heard it clearly and couldn't help but complain:

"...If I were faithful, you and Noah wouldn't have anything to do with each other, and I would probably grow old with Lily."

"Oh right, I almost forgot that Lily-san met you first. Well, you might as well continue being a womanizer."

Hinano, realizing what was happening, stuck out her tongue and then changed the subject: "I'll let you in on a little secret, but Mimi Taya actually likes you too~ Aren't you happy?"

Looks like I've stolen Kamito's script. Should I start trying to win over all the VSPO members next?

Volume 1: Chapter 150 Argonavis 1st live

The night sky over Hakodate was illuminated by the dazzling lights of a mid-sized live music house in Sapporo.

While not as large as the Tokyo Dome or the Budokan, this venue, which can accommodate nearly a thousand people, is a great starting point for Argonavis' first solo live performance—Argonavis 1st.

Inside the backstage dressing room, an atmosphere of tension and excitement filled the air as Shimizu Toru and his teammates were doing their final vocal warm-up and finger exercises.

Everyone was dressed in black performance outfits, and the neatly tailored black jackets made them look even taller. Their stage makeup was also more exquisite than when they warmed up for RAS at Budokan.

"How are you, Ren? Are you nervous?" Hyuga Daisuke adjusted the guitar strap, his voice steady, but the glint in his eyes betrayed his excitement.

"No problem, Daisuke-san." Shimizu Toru took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, feeling that the surging in his chest was not entirely tension, but more of an energy that couldn't wait to be released.

Meanwhile, the other members were busy: bassist Seiji Maeda was memorizing chord progressions, keyboardist Shuta Morishima was gently moving his long, slender fingers, and drummer Shohei Hashimoto was habitually tapping out rhythms in the air with sharp eyes.

"Thinking back to the Budokan?" Shuta Morishima asked with a smile, his tone gentle like that of a senior. "But this time, the stage belongs entirely to us."

“Yes,” Shimizu Toru nodded, a sharp and confident smile curving his lips. “It feels great! This time, it’s truly the start of Argonavis.”

Seiji Maeda leaned over and patted Toru Shimizu hard on the back: "Very good, very spirited! Use this momentum to make everyone in Hakodate remember our names!"

A staff member knocked on the door and peeked in: "Argonavis, get ready to enter!"

For a moment, the air in the lounge seemed to freeze, then it was ignited by an even more intense fighting spirit.

The five people exchanged glances, and without saying a word, they tacitly extended their hands and placed them together.

"For Argonavis' first solo show!" Hyuga Daisuke roared.

"So that our music can resound through the night sky!" Seiji Maeda continued.

"So as not to disappoint the expectations of everyone who comes!" Shuta Morishima's voice was gentle yet powerful.

"To prove our passion!" Shohei Hashimoto slammed his fist on his palm.

Feeling the strength and warmth from the four elder brothers emanating from his palms, Shimizu Toru declared loudly, "For the sake of making tonight an unforgettable memory for everyone!"
