Howdy y'all, Kiwi here

We've got a new typesetter for the final stretch here, hooray! If they hadn't reached out, we probably would have gone another month or two without be getting myself in gear and getting this chapter out, so thank you to Hyuver. I have 3 and a half more chapters to translate, but after that it's all TS and QC.

Don't be like this guy. Obsessing over a one-way parasocial bond is one of the most pathetic things you can do.

 

[jak]

So is he gonna stab the main guy when he find sout?

 

[Dark1400]

New dude needs to go

...also watching lives while on the clock is a nice way to get fired

Wouldn't a good chunk of the virtual idols' donations and merchandise sells come from such fans?

 

[grey521]

I feel like this one goes down a very dark road…

 

[Nosebleed]

I can't believe this manga is gonna end on a cringe simp arc. I would have preferred it ended when they got together if this is all we get after. Yeesh.

Whales will always be whales. Be supportive if you want, just don't get possessive over someone who doesn't know you exist.

 

[Robinisback]

Just introducing a character like this 7 chapters before the ending gives me very bad vibes.

 

[ActuallyArma]

You can tell this new guy is an asshole because he vapes. It's like Malfoy eat that apple in the third movie. We get it, you're a prick

Can't help but laugh with how the chapter ended but then reading that

 

[ciera]

Thank you for the scanlation

Not worth it

for real... im just going to wait for the last 7 chapters to release or till i see the end chapter, im not here for all this suspense bs with some para-social fuckboy (not a hit at the TL group either since it would have been like this on release as well, so more so the author)

 

[Mangamoz]

Yeah I’ve already spoken with some of my group members and we’ve determined that the writing just isn’t very good and that this was a bad arc to throw in there. I guess they needed to pad the extra however many chapters for the volume release or whatever

If you're a couple, it's natural to not watch every stream. You've got the real thing in touch range for much longer than that. And then there are the streamers who start streaming as a couple, though I don't think her audience would be quite that appreciative of that.

"If you're a fan, you should be prepared for a surprise stream."

And that's another reason I don't watch streams. I have my own life, and watching stuff later at my own convenience is so much better. And takes less time.

"I'm the only one who can."

Nope. That's the stalker in you talking.

 

[Leemac13]

Ew. Toxic parasocial arc incoming.

 

[essensue]

Uh. Must we?

Also, this makes fandom look exhausting.

 

[Ninoren]

Is this now a reoccurring trend in the story ?..

Cause it's getting tiring.. now it's just going from creepy guy getting between them, to creepy guy getting between them 😮‍💨
How about some actual progress, or bonding instead ?

Right now it feels more like forced "Drama Bonding", than them actually spending time together, which makes rooting for them sorta hard tbh
