I just memorized the quotes.... "Mio is Miso Soup. If everyone else in hololive are foods like ginger pork or curry, the types of food that have heavy flavorings, Mio is Miso Soup.

Shes not small at all, even among hololive, but watching everyone rise like crazy, like Korone, sure makes it look like shes left behind since they started the same. imo she has nothing to be afraid of in terms of not growing anymore, and fills the "chill" streams many others dont do much.

[@Yoyuu]

The original stream was in December of 2019. During this time 3rd gen was exploding in popularity and Mio probably felt extra pressured because of that. Also remember that a lot of subs to hololive members are people who support hololive entirely, this means that a lot of subs don't end up watching her content.

[@xelasneko]

Now imagine how someone like Kurea Kamishiro felt when her one "sister" Suzuhara Lulu became one of the biggest names in Nijisanji ever and the other one Sephira Su was at 30k subs while she was stuck under 10k for over a year. I always feel bad for the people who are "left behind" so to speak but it's part of the struggle. I'll always try to support the underdogs, but Mio definitely isn't an underdog. She's doing well for herself. Just getting into Hololive is a huge achievement.

[@whelan595]

This is like the time when Fubuki confessed she broke down. Even Suisei took a five day break. While I wish people do need to know about the amount of stress on the Vtubers, I also wish Vtubers themselves know that even other Vtubers can let out and cry.

Suisei said it perfectly. "You have to take care of yourself, doesn't matter what others say. They are not going to pay your medical bills when things go wrong".

[@mohammadripan337]

Yes, that's the most important thing. Take care of yourself. From what I looked, the community in VTubers is one of my favorite. We care about them, we want them to take a rest if they're tired, but sometimes they just push themselves to makes us smile. I hope they know that their healthy is the priority, and I don't even care if they just streamed like three times in a week instead of doing it everyday, or at least they don't stream like 12 hours everyday, 4-8 hours sure is more than enough. (and I'm really sure the majority of this community don't really mind). Some of them even drink red bull or other energy drink to stay energetic (I only knows Aqua who did that, but maybe the others did that as well).

[@whelan595]

jellyman These vtuber usually stream everyday with Sunday as their only break. Every stream would be at least one hour but a majority are usually three to four hours long. But that's from our perspective. Preparing what to stream like discussing what kind of game they want to play, setting the stream up, these take more time that we don't see. Newer vtubers with smaller fan bases would be stressed as they won't be getting as many people to donate to them, which means less capital and would pressure them into giving up vtubing. Larger vtubers with large fan bases have now more people they can't fail to entertain. I believe it is also due to the Japanese culture of people not wanting to be burden to others. Let's not forget not everyone would like them. Hate speech and tweets would be sent to them everyday for each stream, especially for larger vtubers Though, here in Mio's case, she wants to be special in an agency where everyone to her seems to be sparkling bright while she is very plain. She, in addition to the above points would feel stressed as she feels like she is in their shadow. TLDR: This is just an educated guess but Mio feel pressured by a combination of expectations from the fans, haters and her own perception of herself

[@SadlyBaked]

Translating these side of vtubers really is something we needed. Many featured and translated clips of vtubers are them doing fun things, collabs, being teetee, etc etc. Solemn moments like these are quite scarce and rare to be found translated. It's easy to forget there's a human being behind their digital representation. Thank you

[@Yoyuu]

I do wish more of these types of clips exists, but it is a lot harder to make as you need to clip specific moments to make it flow relatively nicely and be more careful with word choice as it can easily cause issues. I do hope more people do them though, but these moments are rare as they usually don't show these side to viewers.

[@zeki1]

It's not like they show the "weak" side all the time. It's because they are streaming so much and exposed directly to the audience that they spills their emotional side once in a while.

The happy end of this sad story is: After this, Okayu, Korone, Fubuki, Ayame, Mio and Subaru went to the legendary hot spring trip, not only forming the amazing combo-unit of OKFAMS (Consisting of FAMS and the Gamers united) but also getting her mind off of things. The aftertalk got uploaded on her channel, wich was not only a huge relief to her fans but also a smart move vtubing wise on the girls part. Eversince then, Mio has continued to walk at her own pace. She also broke out of her usual pattern though, playing games a bit more exciting as much as the ones she already loved. Wich made her much easier to clip + translate, again, also a good move on the vtubing side of things. All that combined Mio almost doubled her subs on youtube since then, and while on that topic, you should consider subscribing to her too. She's really amazing to listen to, no matter if she sings... ... or trying to brush Taiga PVE PS.: Still waiting on that one horse racing game to get ported to the Switch. C'mon Nintendo.

[@LegendRazgriz]

When I introduced my circle of friends to this world, I eventually pointed out that "Mio's like a GM" (a mass-produced mobile suit from Gundam); her lack of a distinctive feature is her distinctive feature. In the midst of all the madness, crazy antics, screaming and outrageous perversion, Mio's always there, a normal, adorable girl doing normal, adorable things. And there's people who'll love her for exactly that. While she may have wanted to be more like her less-than-normal friends (almost half a year later, idk if it's still the same), I personally think that this simple, caring Mio is very appreciated, even needed at times, and absolutely irreplaceable. Okayu knows that as well. For her sake, and for the sake of all of her fans, I hope she's found her new spark.

@@ketsuekikira1635 I was thinking of the Stargazer instead for Suisei. Aside from the name, the Voiture Lumiere Propulsion System allows the Stargazer to build up speed over time as it travels between planets (as the original purpose of the suit is to explore beyond Mars). I get where you're coming from choosing the Throne Zwei or the Arche Gundam that Ali pilots, and I think the Stargazer can also do that using its beam capture ability and create a field of shootable beam cutters around it instead of having a giant sword. But you could just give the Stargazer the GN Buster Sword as well. I agree that the Gundam MK-II (Titans ver.) works for Mio, but I also wonder if there's another MS that would suit her better. I'm thinking BuCUE, Nether Gundam, or Gundam Tryon 3 for Korone. Ayame would be the Sengoku Astray. I'm not sure if it would suit her but Sora could be the TR-6 [Queenly] or [Queenly] Full Armor Form. Roboco could be the Command Gundam, Dynames/Cherudim, or the S/Ex-S...? Matsuri can be the Fenice since it's the only Gundam I've seen blushing lol. Haachama can have the Jumping Gundam I guess.

"I actually want to become ginger pork." Man such a silly sounding statement carrying a huge confession from her. I felt that.

[@DarronGA]

This is why we love hololive idols so much. The human connection. Unlike what you get with regular idols as abnormal and weird as they are, you don't just get fulfilment from worshipping some idol figure (or I guess "simping" is the word for that). You feel a genuine connection on a personal level with them seeing them grow and being with them through their journey that sadly won't last forever, but we'll all look back on them as fond memories akin to the memories we have with a good friend. They're weird quirks and fun content, things they struggled or still dealing with, and them just genuinely having fun with each other fills me with joy and at moments like this when they open up to us is one of the most fulfilling because it means they trust us enough to share their doubts and worries. I love Vtubers for this very reason and I will continue to support them anyway I can for as long as I can. Sorry for the long babbling I got emotional...

[@Yoyuu]

No problem, I think you put it very nicely. The personal connection is a big piece of what makes them appealing. Which is why I love talking streams so much.

[@YaBoiScrumpo]

In commemoration of Mio reaching 1M subscribers today, I've come back to this monumental clip that played the biggest role in my becoming a Miofa and Holofan. Around three months after this moment was clipped, I discovered Hololive and Vtubing on the whole. Within a couple weeks of seeing this clip, Mio became the first Holomember whose stream I watched live and in its entirety. Especially after my first karaoke stream of hers, she immediately was established as my favorite and has been so for the almost 1.5 years I've known her. She worried that people who saw her for the first time in a moment like this would be detrimental to her. I was immediately attracted to the down-to-earth transparency she provided here, the feeling that her concerns were relatable to my own in some ways and so I could empathize, and also the underdog story. As she's crossed many milestones since, I've thought about this conversation and I know Mio referred to it time-to-time over the years too. It brings me much joy to think about how she's readjusted herself, her perspective of her growth, and the way she treats herself as a streamer. These days it seems she's come to terms with the fact that she isn't as explosive as some of her peers and is much more at ease with being a streamer who people come to for her relaxed and comforting vibes. Seeing her allow herself breaks, lean on her fellow Holomem and management more, and seemingly become more true to herself as time has gone on has been outstanding. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to her that she decided to follow through the "miso soup" path. In a chaotic world, and even in the wildly changing sphere of Vtubing itself, being able to unwind in Mio's streams and enjoy her singing, laughter, and overall aura is really a godsend. As it stands, the world is blessed that Mio did not give in and has pushed through her own self-judgement and the unfortunate slowness of her growth. Now that she's made it to 1 million subs and come this far, I hope she can truly put the feelings she expressed back then in this clip behind her. She's more than demonstrated her value between her perseverance, the levels of cozy she often provides, and the fantastic shows she's put on in multiple Hololive festivals at this point too. I'm infinitely proud of her, happy with the content she provides, and will loyally follow her for as long as I can as a Miofa!

[@nonocere]

The idea of a "perfect idol" (doesn't cry, doesn't have a boyfriend, doesn't show any negative emotion, always has to be happy and energetic) is something I've always rejected. I find it extremely shallow. Living off entertaining people is the perfect opportunity for the entertainer to also show vulnerability, their fears and their deepest thoughts, it is a great way to engage with your audience because it's assured that they will feel related to what the entertainer is going through and there's a feedback between these two parts. We can see it here, we are all rooting and supporting Mio, this sweet girl who's been there for us when things get tough, now we are here for her. I think Mio's comparing herself too much to her fellow Holos, and that's normal. In every work environment it's impossible to not look at yourself and then look at others to see and think "What can I do better to achieve being where this other person is?" Which I feel like that's how Mio feels when seeing members like Pekora just getting so much popularity. Or Korone, who's been growing insanely fast these last couple of months. But what I believe is that, even if what you have might not be enough for you, (like how Mio doesn't feel sure about being "Miso soup"), whether you like it or not, you can't change that, but the magic about it is that it's yours and only yours, and you can do with it whatever you want. You can just accept that you are Miso soup and stay like that forever, or you can be like Mio and, instead of trying to become something else, she's willing to become a BETTER and more delicious Miso soup! Because, just as what happened with Mio before, if you try so hard to become something else, you are just gonna end up losing yourself. Your true self. And I don't know about you guys, but I will be rooting for her, checking on her streams, and seeing her growing as a streamer and as a human being.

I really do hope this video gets a bit of attention, since this kind of thing exists in the community. There are probably many cases that we arent even aware of how these people try their to stay, relevant or entertaining to their audiences and to put it colloquially "stay on that grind". A small number of cases where a Vtuber is experiencing issues like this or of a different caliber that keep them back from accomplishing what they want, or to just stay in a good mental state and not get burnt out do pop into mind, however they're quite small and dont really get talked about. I don't think people believe that Vtubers cant cry, rather they dont realise how much they can cry or how much they can be impacted and affected on their psychological well being. Nonetheless thank you for making this and shedding some light, I hope this gets more recognised in the fandom.

[@sergiofabianflorescorrea7129]

I believe the answer: "you are a miso soup" was not the one she wanted, or more like, was not the answer Mio needed at the time. Probably she was comparing herself to other hololive members, finding in each one something the shine, but finding none on herself. That's why she worked hard in order to be a pork dish, because she wanted to shine like them. However, telling her she is a miso soup, even though acknowledging she is important for everyone in hololive, also implies that she won't be more that something to accompany the main dish. Like setting a limit to what she can accomplish. So she resigned to that answer and now tries to become a delicius miso soup, I feel that THAT decision is more hurting than what she felt before. Her fans may know in which aspects she is best, but that's not enough for her, we must tell her in every means possible and make her feel that she also shines like every other member or even more, in order to help her in her problems, even if just a bit.

[@richterlonewolf]

I agree with you because we are from the west, but according to my Japanese friends from Nagoya miso soup is more important than a main dish in everyday life for almost all japanese people, so I do think her friend word are in the right way and help her a lot considering this stream was from 5 months ago.

[@_zet_zet_]

Nothing wrong with recognising your own strength and hone that strength to the next level. This is actually a good reset for mio, she can now refocus on what makes her special. What I got from okayu methaphor of mio chan being a miso soup is, that mio is like the esssential parts of the hololive family, she's always there whenever anyone needs her. From what I understand miso soup is a comfort dish that is almost always in the Japanese daily menu. I think okayu just want to highlight how important mio is to the hololive family, her charm is her calmness. She's just tired of trying to be like the other quirky characters without realising probably half of her subs count are the result of the charm that is unique specifically to her, and half of them is from her hardwork. Anyway. What she's trying to do now is probably the best decision she could make.. Be the best miso soup out there. Okayu is such a cool person. I wish everyone has a frienship like they do.

[@Jamushu]

I disagree I think saying *_"You are like Miso Soup"_* is *exactly* the answer she needed and maybe not the answer she wanted. For one thing, with a situation like Hololive, where so many different people bring so many unique energies/characters to entertain people, there'll always be members who feel they're lagging behind or not doing enough. *_Exactly what Mio is feeling right now._* But the most important thing to remember is, you can only be who you are. Trying to grow or even reinvent yourself in ways not authentic to you, will never work. And everyone will see you're not being you. Because you can't be something you're not. If you're not a Pork Dish, *_then you can't be a Pork Dish._* And trying against everything to be a Pork Dish, only makes a flavorless meal. If your desires is to shine, you have to find a way to shine that's authentic to you. Telling Mio that is nothing like suggesting she can *only* accompany the Main Dish and that limits what she can accomplish. Telling Mio that is to offer a different perspective on what she's feeling. *_"So you don't feel you're wacky or energetic like everyone else. Is that really bad though?"_* Does Mio *NEED* to be a meme like Korone or Miko, Haachama or Kiryu? And the answer is no. She doesn't need to be and she shouldn't. Every Hololive Member fits a niche that someone out there likes, including Mio. And while I can't say what the best thing for her to do is, I can say that comparing herself to her friends and coworkers will never be the best thing for her to do. Lastly I'll say this - No Chef has ever said becoming the best of *_ANY_* dish is a hindrance. Even Gordon Ramsay will appreciate the best Miso Soup over 6 really good Pork Dishes.

[@zookacchi]

This is like watching your beloved Mother or caring Big sister cry. Someone who you look up to, takes care & brings comfort, and gives you joy and smiles-- break down and cry, pouring out their bottled up feelings with tears falling from their starry eyes. It's heartbreaking to see. Mio, her fellow Hololive peers, and all VTubers... we don't deserve them at all. For them to bring entertainment and joy to all of us watching them from different places across the world, even transcending language barriers to make everyone feel included; they're outright legends in that regard. I'm very glad to stumble upon the rabbit hole of Vtubers and discover these heartwarming people. And I am very happy to be here to give all kinds of support and love to them while they're still here.

Mio, I believe Okayu was trying to say that you're one of the foundations of Hololive. You're the one who is in the back making things work. When people get knocked down, you pick them up and support them. When people can't take anymore, you hold their hand and help them face it. You may not be a main character, but every main character needs someone there to keep them moving. To keep them from breaking or running away when things get tough. We may have even lost Miko if not for your help. You're a vital part of Hololive. The English Community sees you as a Mother, not as someone who birthed these kids, but as someone with the love and patience of a mother. We see it as a badge of honor and the other members have noticed it as well. If you feel tired, take the day off. If you're still feeling tired, take a few more. If you want to collab with others, just say the word. What we dont' want, Mio, is for you to suffer alone. I personally think you shine the greatest, when you're with others.

The reason why I like Mio stream is simple, it is calming and relaxed, while it is nice to feel happy energetic and just go around shouting, I also just like staying calm and relaxed, and there is a few in Holo which can consistently provide me with that calm feeling, and Mio is one of them

[@jmsytbe]

I'm so proud of how far Mio has come. From being full of doubt and lacking in confidence, she's managed to find her own place and now seems so much for comfortable, like she's managed to find exactly the right role for herself, and has gained the confidence to trust the her fans will be with her if she just does things her own way. She now has a million subs, and her fanbase is bigger than ever. Her morning streams, for example, peak at like 15k viewers, when even a few months ago it was more like 10k. She's such a feel-good story, and deserves all her success.

[@pacotaconep4433]

Supporting someone when they are at their best is good. But what matters most is when you support them at their worst

[@carvotheboss]

I respect Okayu's intent with the miso soup analogy, but I worry that Mio took it as her just being the average and boring vtuber ("I'm just Miso soup, I think") that all the other ones can rely on to just collab with because she'll never ruin the "dish" of a livestream by standing out too much. The problem I think she feels in the clip is that she's worried about being left behind by her fellow livers as she thinks she isn't interesting enough to be more than a background player; like she's relegated to being the side character to her friends success. And naturally a worse person would fall to bitterness or envy here, but Mio being Mio she's just upset that she doesn't feel like she's giving as much to her fans *or* her friends by being in that position. But I think Okayu was saying was definitely more along the lines of your translation notes; Mio isn't Miso soup because she's bland and inoffensive, she's reliable, everyone loves her, and most importantly if it went away there'd never, *ever* be anyone quite like her. We give her the nickname Mio-mama because she provides an atmosphere of comfort and gentle happiness that stands out in it's own way; and in a world with so much going on, and in an idol group that could best be described as eccentric, the ability to soothe and comfort is so damn important. It breaks my heart that Mio feels she's not working hard enough or that she doesn't stand out enough. The truth is people may admittedly talk about her less than other livers but only because she's such a stable point in Hololive. I just hope that she gives herself a break if she feels like she needs it and keeps going to her fellow livers for support; and maybe one day she'll be able to look back on how much she's done for all of us and smile about it.

[@gabrielpoubel1077]

When she said like she gave up her plan to be ginger pork I burst out cry I understand the feeling that even you don’t want to .You will compare yourself to other. That is the human nature But It seem she misunderstood a bit for the meaning of Miso soup Miso soup is not just a soup. It’s Japanese soul Miso soup is literally the food that you can eat everyday My Japanese teacher once told me the line that he used to proposed to his wife was “Can you make my Miso soup every morning?” That is how much miso soup mean to Japanese people You are you mio chan be yourself everyone else is already taken

Videos like this are the reason why I enjoy watching many vtubers, such as Mio, more than most other entertainment on KZbin. It's difficult to put into words, but... when you watch a clip or stream of Mio, especially after watching this video, don't you feel like you're watching a real, genuine person, rather than a person acting as a character? And Mio is very likeable, too. It's more complicated than that, though. For example, I enjoy watching Pekora, who often acts as a "smug rabbit". She is acting as a character, and yet... after you watch enough clips of her, you can tell that Pekora is a lot more than just a smug rabbit. There is a clip of Pekora giving genuine advice to a fan and talking openly about things that worry her: that clip shows us the real Pekora. Recently she played a purely-RNG minigame in Dragon Quest V for 9 hours until she cleared it: that stream shows us the real Pekora. She is both genuine and a smug rabbit character. And while the smug rabbit makes me laugh, I think the real Pekora is very likeable, too. There are many other vtubers like this whom I enjoy watching. Some of them always seem to be their genuine selves; some of them act or exaggerate to be more entertaining or cute; sometimes I'm not sure when they're acting or being genuine, and I'm fine with it either way. It's difficult to explain, but in every case, I feel like they are a real, likeable person who might act or exaggerate sometimes, but overall they are their genuine selves. I enjoy watching them and I want to see them be successful and happy. Thank you Yoyuu for translating this. I can't speak Japanese, so the only reason I can enjoy so many vtubers is because of the work of translators like you. I never knew Mio felt this way until now. I will cheer for her even more from now on. I really enjoy the "Miso Soup" Mio but I hope she can find her "Spicy Pork" side, too! Thank you again for this video, Yoyuu.

I remember watching this live, and I still remember it because it's one of the things that really hit me hard. It was difficult to even get through listening to it, but I did. I think this is huge wake-up call that, at the end of the day, our wonderful Holopro members are still normal people at the end of the day. It certainly was a wake-up call for me, when I first watched it. Everyone has their personal demons that they have to deal with. And Mio's personal demons hit too close to home for me. Something I'm all too familiar with. To carve out what makes yourself special is difficult, especially you see everybody else with brimming personalities. Looking yourself compared to them is disheartening and sad. It's easy to see them as "shining stars," as Mio says, and looking back at yourself, fully aware of all the flaws that you have. But at that moment, I sincerely wished that, she understood that she herself shines in her own way, even if she doesn't see it. Everybody has their little cracks, but that doesn't take away the specialty of oneself. And as for Holopro, every person shines in their own way, including Mio. As sad as this stream was, I was delighted to see that she seemed to be doing better and was ready for her anniversary on twitter. And, it might sound a little cheesy, but if Mio is the equivalent to miso soup, then I'll go to all miso soup stores in the world. --- Just so we don't end on a somber note, thank you for the translation!

I may have had the benefit of playing bass instruments(Trombone) in my childhood, and having learned that the bass line isn't anything flashy or exciting, but if it isn't there, the rest of the song tends to fall apart quickly.

It's fine to be sad, sometime you need it, cry if you want to cry, don't push yourself to be strong all the time, there's a moment that you need to release your emotions, but, don't let yourself drown in sadness. Sorry if there's mistake in my english

Miso soup is the part of the meal I always look forward to the most. Whether I end up having it at the beginning, the middle, or the end of the meal. Or even by itself as a treat. And sometimes the quality of the soup will differ, especially if I make it myself, but regardless the taste, my heart and my mind and my taste buds knows it's still miso soup. And it still warms my body and makes me smile. Just like Mio.

This moment was arguably more powerful, meaningful and impactful than the vast majority of entire streams. I wish I could thank Mio for what she has given us. It must've been hard.

[@ashardalondragnipurake]

dammit youtube algorithm first video i have seen of her and now im crying you cant have spicy food every day or your taste buds will shrivel up and die but the good comfort food is something to have while you watch the sun go down live life at your own pace, its all part of a balanced diet

[@Jamushu]

She was doing so well and found a *great* groove to work with, and then her Company couldn't do the *MOST IMPORTANT THING NECESSARY.* *_They failed to act. They failed to protect her._* Here's hoping Mio enjoys the break as at least a means to relax and recharge, and that she may come back to her MioFa completely refreshed.

Nothing to say. I'm just a silent fan.

[@YuriSteiner04]

Wow I wasn't ready for this... Thank you for translating.

[@matriarch5515]

It's only a matter of time until Okayu and Korone breaks down aswell.

[@AnomalousMats]

I remember this being a really rough stream for me when I first saw it. It hadn't even been a month since azur lane started me down the vtuber road and suddenly one of them was pouring her heart out. It was also surreal seeing her avatar smiling the whole time so I ended up putting the stream in the background and just listening to her. I'm glad she didn't bottle it in and was allowed a stream to just talk about her feelings. I've seen some others do it since and some even quit. Never forget their are people behind these avatars with their own hopes, dreams and feelings. I hope none of them are forced to change who they are just for some fame.

Please keep uploading these types of clips. We all need to know it ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. I hope the best for all of the HL girls. I might not watch all of them or even particularly enjoy their specific content, but I do love them all. And when the day comes that they retire I’ll make sure to never forget them.

[@Gamer-kg4ec]

I saw this video a while back and put it on my watch later list, I was bit scared to watch it. Glad I have. It’s hard when a lot of people rely on you for comfort in a terrible world, feeling obligated to put on a front and overwork yourself. You focus on others so much you forget yourself and might burn out. To help others you gotta help yourself first, and it’s ok to be you. people can be happy and make others happy at their own pace. It can take a while to realize that, but it’ll be much more rewarding that way.

[@xXd4rhXx]

I'll drink that miso soup just like giorno drank his "tea"

[@giratius9307]

Bruh this makes me remember when flare cried

[@phantomblade89]

Sounds like she's burnout, who wouldn't be doing the same thing everyday Putting a smile on your face everyday even though you aren't happy doing it or simply tired of doing it. That's insane. They wanted this kind of life, so it's hard to fell bad for them. Reminds me of office workers. I just hope none of these ladies have a mental breakdown due to the fact they have to pander to such a trash toxic community.

[@13526069]

Its been 3 month for me from start following Hololive. I saw mio and always think she is the type of supporting character who can made anyone feel comfort and warm. I just know everyone think the same....and mio also know how her be in other view... But know the truth what she really want is a pain in my heart too... Thank for really great tran video.

[@SensibleZombie]

omg i want to hug her and tell her she doesnt need to try so hard it will be alright i am crying with her right now

[@pureseasalt]

I'd die for this wolf

[@soraganishino2864]

Nice premiere. I love the stuff Yoyuu uploads

[@listeneraaron6013]

I still remember this stream from last year where i started getting into vtubers and it was my first time watching her and now she's one of my favorite vtuber to support

[@U6kCtBuN]

you know, maybe they are something more than just idols

[@underrated2064]

True happiness lies within a moment. Those hours can be like 5 minutes while you’re happy.

[@gigaphoton376]

It's so weird that I don't really know anyone at all, yet I still feel really sad seeing these videos.

[@Mtmtmtmtmtmtmtmtmtmtmt]

I ended up crying along with this old clip cause that miso speech was so relatable

[@Axist_16]

Life has been harsh for me but Vtubers cheered me up at times. I appreciate what they've gave me even though it's just for the moment . They light up this dark alley of mine even if it's just a bit . So I might as well support them whenever I can . To the other people out there who's facing a harsh reality . I hope you're doing well to live on . As Orga said "Never stop moving forward".
