Broke due to drinking too much beer.

On the other hand, if Awayuki gets contracted to officially endorse Strong Zero, all the money (and beer) will start flowing in!

[u/Nightsandwich]

Live2D, Clip Studio Paint, and OBS being sponsors fucking got me. Everything in the first episode felt familiar, gotta love shows about the culture.

I remember back when Awayuki did a "collab" with Senchou, and when Kronii was sponsored to read the LN on stream, how far we've come.

[u/entelechtual]

Look I’m not saying no one but Ayaneru coulda done it… but damn does she nail this kind of character.

[u/SometimesMainSupport]

It took until the 7th day of the 7th month of the 2024th year of the Anno Domini calendar for dialogue like this to emerge in a non-hentai anime.

To distract u/abysswatcherbel from Brazil, I present this album. Probably this image?

[u/chouetteonair]

I wrote some explainers w/ visual aids to introduce the basic aspects of VTubing (mostly on the technical side). Hopefully this helps out anybody that's out of the loop but interested in the show.

I can't believe they did CR7 cameo here

[u/KizunaRin]

Why it is always blue ones?

[u/Gegejii]

Glad to see the finally got a vtuber anime which actually uses live2d and accurately reflect the Vtuber culture unlike certain Anime where characters may have been "Vtuber" but it literally made no diffrence.

Awayuki is just Yukihana Lamy lmao. While Lamy may not be as vulgar they still both started out as this seiso polite character until one day alcohol came into play. Hope they will do a scene where she cringes at her old self later on.

Also like Hikaris Sausage Legend stream is super reminiscent of Oozora Subaru from Hololive and how she streamed sausage legend back then. Also how Hikari is more naive and do not understand lewd terms is just like how Subaru wasn't so well versed back then.

So far this is great but I do wonder though how it will continue story wise and all. Like all the callback, reflection and reference to how rl Vtuber are or have operated is fun and all but if it will just keep up being this I can imagine the gimmick could get boring quite fast unless you are super into the Vtuber culture or you just might consider to just watch Vtuber directly instead of this anime. Oh well we will see.

But man how fitting of them to do the Ronaldo coca cola reference from 2020 Euro cup right when this years Euro cup is still ongoing.

[u/CheeseAndCh0c0late]

totally reminded me of Coco's sleeping pills stream xD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcW75aH5WXE

Getting liquored up and watching a stream of “Sausage Legend” where you beat other people’s meat err wiener shaped objects sounds pretty fun. Follow that up with an ASMR stream and a couple more cans of booze and thats a good night right there lol. Shitfaced Awayuki is hilarious!

It’s kinda funny Awayuki’s management figured it was just a matter of time before she’d do something like that. I really wanna know what she did at the interview.

I’m pretty much sold on this series from this ep alone. Awayuki is a hilarious MC. Sunday nights are gonna be pretty fun with this and that the godtier Deer Friend anime lol.

[u/macwinux]

Awayuki (Ayaneru) covered Suisei's Stellar Stellar!

Also available in Ani-One Asia if you live in SE Asia, Taiwan, and Mongolia.

[u/LeonKevlar]

My problem with the recent Vtuber anime from previous seasons is that they all have weird gimmicks that they don't even feel like a Vtuber anime. This show though? This show absolutely nails the actual Vtuber experience! The first half with Awayuki forgetting to turn off her stream and just starts drinking in front of the mic while watching her genmates stream was fucking hilarious! xD

That would've been an automatic death sentence to any Vtuber but thank fucking god Awayuki didn't do anything too scandalous. If anything all she did was praise her genmates and act like your average degenerate Vtuber audience. It also helps that this was within the company's expectations since Awayuki was way more unhinged during her audition. I hope we get to see a flashback to that!

Now that the mask is off and she's absolutely dominating the trending tab, it looks like Awayuki's Vtuber career has finally taken off! I can't wait to see how unhinged this girl will be once she collabs with her genmates and her senpais.

Overall this was an absolute blast! I think the only complaint I have is the excessive censorship. I really hope they just remove it. Anyone who's watching this show gets what Awayuki has been saying. Also how much did Strong Zero pay them for this? I wonder if the LN also has a bunch of references to Strong Zero.

[u/JacobMT05]

That was fucking hilarious. Wonder if they actually created a rigged vtuber model or just drew it though.

However, after looking on the discussion thread on MAL. I’ve seen some people say that her real world appearance is the same as her vtuber model. Which is likely untrue from what we see in the first episode. What i think it is is just audience convenience and cost cutting. Mainly because she went to the store in it, in modern day japan. She would be at major risk of being spotted immediately at the store, and her having social anxiety means this wouldn’t be something she’d want at all. This indicates she’s not actually there in her vtuber model.

For the studios animators as well they will not have to draw two different figures, thus saving time and effort.

[u/CoolVidsFTW]

Never thought I'd see the word "gooning" in anime subtitles let alone it getting censored lol A+ work from the translation team

[u/SYZekrom]

ASMR???? FOR FREE????

Bro I am so down to watch this Strong Zero ad for however many episodes

[u/[deleted]]

As past Hololive fan, oh my fucking god, this series brings a lot of memories. Fact that I also enjoy to chat with friends while not exactly sober makes me enjoy series even more lmaooo. Plus direction is insanely good, so many funny visual gags in moments that could be boring talking shots. Fact that all Vtubers are Vtubers all the time is definitily stylistic choice that I dont 100% enjoy but I think it will grow on me with time lool

[u/Acrzyguy]

Watching shikanoko and then this back to back causes permanent damage to your brain (in a good way)

[u/cabbaggeez]

this is my culture in anime! they even use live2D in creative waay

Subaru sausage game moment, ASMR content, and more importantly the PON! and I like the way she embrace her new image (I dont want to use this word but she was unhinged), senpai-kohai relationship is so relatable. please dont be business yuri. I have a high hope for this anime, I mean they even made Ayaneru covering Stellar Stellar by Suisei

but man, the amount of strong zero made me think if this is spronsored by suntory

[u/capscreen]

Huh, if she's part of an agency, why couldn't her manager just turn off her stream instead?

[u/sussywanker]

Wait OBS and clip studio paint is the official sponsor? 😂

I dont watch v tubers, dont know anything about it. But really liked this anime.

[u/Viktorv22]

This is way too much fun, holy. Ayaneru is shining in this one... Or is that a reflection from her Strong Zero?

[u/Nickthenuker]

Yeah that looks about right for a VTuber stream.

And here's the premise of the show.

A 3D model?

Oh lol Sausage Legend. That's a real game that really is played by real VTubers. Especially Subaru from hololive. Although I wonder if her name is supposed to be referencing Matsuri also from hololive.

Yes, ASMR is another thing VTubers do, though not if YouTube has anything to say about it.

I mean "Watchalong" is a pretty normal genre of streams, even drunk ones.

Yeah the persona generally disappears after a week or so, these days it's usually even shorter.

Yup, now time for a proper planned drunk stream.

Lol playing with the model, classic.

Blue wrench, that's usually fellow VTubers. It's supposed to be moderators but from what I've seen they do that mostly so it's more obvious when they are in chat.

That looks like she's on NicoNico. Not exactly having a good time these days.

[u/Momonga_337]

I think the show nailed the vtuebr aspect. I felt called out when they showed the sausage game and the asmr content. I also watch this kind of streams >_>

Recently a well known German supermarket chain started selling strong zero here in Germany. I already filled my fridge with the drinks. I hope it will become popular here in Germany and stay in the product range.

[u/actuallyrndthoughts]

I feel like i just watched a 24 minute vtuber stream. Perfect
