Now That I Have Become a Woman, I Am a Vtuber - Chapter 584

After Hyeon-su and Ah-young had their housewarming party, they continued to enjoy a leisurely break without a schedule.

In the morning, Hyeon-su got up and made himself a cup of coffee using the coffee machine.

He casually sat on the sofa, spending his time leisurely, and then lightly cooked to prepare breakfast.

“I had a good meal.”

Finishing his meal at the empty dining table, he opened the window and vacuumed the room.

Listening to music, he lightly tidied up the house, and thus his morning routine was complete.

“Phew.”

After that, he roughly placed the vacuum cleaner against the wall and entered the broadcasting room.

Today was different from usual; there was a scheduled broadcast he had announced earlier.

Yawning, he sat down in front of his desk and turned on the computer.

As he set up the broadcast…

“Oh.”

Remembering something, he got up from his seat.

I completely forgot about this.

He hurried into the kitchen and took out the popcorn and Zero Cola he had stocked in the refrigerator.

He had bought them in advance for today.

Still in his pajamas, he placed the large bowl of popcorn and the cola on the desk.

Turning off the lights in the room and drawing the blackout curtains, he completed his preparations.

“Hmph, hmph.”

Clearing his throat for a moment, he finished setting up the broadcast and went live.

“Ah, everyone, please take your seats.”

-Did you come?

-You came right on time, haha

The broadcast started exactly at the announced time, so the viewers seated themselves even faster than usual.

“I’m playing some music for a bit.”

Since there were still people who hadn’t come, he played some music to pass the time.

“Shall we take a look?”

Once he felt enough viewers had settled in, he opened the prepared window.

“Are you ready?”

-Yes, yes, yes, yes

-Let’s go, haha

-Chicken has just arrived

Hmm, it looks like everyone is ready.

I too sat comfortably in front of my two glowing monitors.

I squatted down, resting my feet on the chair, pushed the keyboard aside, and moved the popcorn and cola closer to me.

“Phew… Is it starting?”

Then he brought the mouse over to the prepared window.

There, the first episode of a famous anime was paused.

-Quickly, go go

-I’m excited, haha

Today was, after all, the day for simultaneous viewing of the anime.

He had secured the rights for simultaneous broadcasting from Dwitch.

So unlike usual, he could play it freely without copyright concerns.

-So, is this your first time seeing it?

-Did you say you hadn’t seen this?

“I did watch it briefly as a cartoon when I was in elementary school.”

-???

-Cartoon?

-When you were in elementary school??

-Do you even know what age group this anime is meant for?

-This isn’t something an elementary school girl should be watching, haha

“Hey, everyone can watch it. Now, I’m going to start.”

Ignoring the rapidly rising chatter, he pressed the play button on the paused anime.

[That day, humanity…]

While he had watched it only as a cartoon, he had been meaning to watch the completed series someday, but he hadn’t expected to see it like this.

He heard that the ending was also well done, so he was looking forward to it.

-How far have you seen this?

-Wow, this is such a nostalgia trip, haha

“Me? I’ve seen some of it, but… um, I don’t remember well.”

Not remembering clearly, he had also noted a spoiler ban in the title.

This would be easier for those watching for the first time as well.

“Everyone knows not to spoil it, right?”

Just in case, he mentioned it once more.

He wondered if these people would get too excited and start spoiling things.

-Yeah, we know, haha

-Actually, I’ll tell you what happens to the main character…

-What will you do if I do?

“… then the manager will ban you.”

He hoped they wouldn’t spoil anything.

Today, he had specially borrowed a chat management manager from the Celestial Realm.

Although there were usually 2-3 people managing the chat, today twice that number were watching closely.

Because spoiling was a serious crime.

It must be dealt with immediately.

-Whoa…

-What?

-What the hell;; I can’t handle this;;

Well, since it was a subscriber-only chat, there probably wouldn’t be many spoiling.

However, he decided to focus on the screen, thinking that some unexpected behaviors could still arise among the more than ten thousand viewers.

“Wow….”

Even though Season 1 had come out quite some time ago, the animation quality was good.

He used to watch a lot of videos like “TV Full Legend” when he was in elementary school, so it was nostalgic.

As he watched the first episode, filled with childhood reminiscence,

Twenty minutes passed, and the end of the protagonist’s childhood story approached.

Then came the scene where the boy’s mother enters the mouth of a giant.

“Oh, this was famous.”

Of course, it was a memorable scene, so he looked at the chat, reminiscing about the past.

But….

-Whoa, what the hell

-What if you already know??

-Oh, watching everyone’s reactions is the real fun…

Seeing the flood of rapidly scrolling chat surprised him.

Ah, was that the reaction he hoped to see from those who didn’t know?

“What can I do if I know?”

It was an impactful scene, so it made sense to expect the streamer’s reaction, but now that he revealed it, oh well.

However, understanding viewers’ needs is a virtue of a good VTuber.

As Buhwang, he had to cater to them.

“I’ll pretend not to notice the giant’s coming-out scene.”

-???

-No way, haha

-If you know that too, why are you watching this?

-Sigh…

-Gonna go to another room, bye

“I said I’ll pretend not to notice, right? Everyone sit down and watch.”

Chomp, chomp.

He spoke while munching on a handful of caramel popcorn.

Even when he offered to do it, there was resistance; those viewers really were difficult to please.

-You really have to pretend not to notice

-You should do well, okay?

-I’m watching for the acting, haha

“I’m not confident about acting… but okay, I understand.”

-? haha

-If you’re not confident, who is???

-Wow, you’re really good at acting, haha

“Alright, then let’s move on to the next episode…”

Well, anyway.

He continued watching the anime together with the viewers.

“Oh… wow…”

He thought he remembered the early story to a reasonable extent, but watching it again after several years was fun and refreshing.

There were scenes he hadn’t remembered at all.

As the memories only held large events, even though he had seen the beginning, many scenes felt new.

The protagonist facing various conflicts during training as a trainee.

The relationships with other characters, and the incidents that arise from completing tasks and the first mission.

“This is really fun.”

-For real

-This is enjoyable, haha

-So fun?

It was quite enjoyable.

In fact, it had been a while since he watched an anime, and he was really enjoying it.

Now that he was watching this, he wanted to see more.

As he mentally picked the candidates for what to watch next, he lost track of time and the number of episodes passed by.

-What is this?

-Wow, haha

-Whoa, whoa, whoa

An impactful and shocking scene appeared.

“Eek, what is this?”

-???

-Ah

-Dude, you know this, haha

-What’s with your reaction??

“Ah, did it show?”

It was a shocking enough scene to be memorably impactful.

Still, he responded but felt his reaction was lacking.

-Dude, give it a break, what the hell

-Should we just not watch it?

-This is really over the top;;

“Oh, I’m sorry. Next time, I’ll react more vigorously.”

These people, watching this was challenging.

Sigh.

He took a sip of cola and continued watching.

-What the hell;;

-For real, do better

-It’s so annoying to see you sipping cola, haha

Fortunately for the viewers, yet another highlight scene appeared.

The dramatic entrance of the hero and the protagonist in a time of danger.

How should he react to this scene effectively?

Just as he was deep in thought, the next highlight scene appeared faster than he anticipated.

“Ah, um, uh.”

Due to missing the timing, he completely missed the opportunity to react this time.

-??

-Seriously

-Haha, what a loser

“Oops.”

This time, he really intended to respond but completely missed it.

Well, there were still many opportunities left.

“I’ll make sure to react next time.”

As he said this, he played the next episode.

After all, he still hadn’t finished watching Season 1, so there was plenty of time to react.

He kept watching the video.

“Oh, oh… this is how it goes in the anime.”

-??

-What the hell, haha

-You know this too?

-Why is this guy’s memory so good??

Unfortunately, as he immersed himself in the anime, he found it increasingly difficult to show the reactions the viewers wanted.

-Dude, be surprised or something

-How far did you watch the cartoon?

-This guy must have seen everything, haha

-Just remove the spoiler ban from the title, damn it;;

Anyway, after finishing up to Season 2.

“Shall we stop here?”

Feeling deeply satisfied, he closed the window for the simultaneous viewing.

Even knowing the story, it was fun.

With frequent comedic elements, time flew by without him realizing it.

-???

-I should stay up all night

-Where are you going?

When he closed the window, the viewers who had enjoyed watching up till Season 2 were surprised.

Ah, did they think he was watching everything today?

“There’s someone I’ll watch Season 3 with.”

Unfortunately, this simultaneous watch was planned as a two-part event, so they had to wrap it up now.

-Who??

-Is there a guest?

-If not then you should have said that, I ordered chicken!

“Yes, yes, my friend is coming tomorrow, and we’ll watch together.”

He said his friend had watched up to Season 2, so today they watched up to that point. They could continue from Season 3 tomorrow.

-???

-You have a friend?

-Who is it?

-Is it a real friend?

“Yes, yes, a real friend. He’s Japanese.”

-Haha

-So you are a VTuber

-Okay, haha

-Long time no see, haha

“…I see everyone recognizes him.”

Nodding as he saw the chat instantly guessing it was the friend he had expected.

He heard that his friend was going to come over for a housewarming visit; how long would he stay?

“Then, see you tomorrow.”

Thinking it wouldn’t exceed a week, he ended the broadcast nonchalantly.
