🌸 Kagami no Ningyou (鏡の人形)

🌑 Kagami no Kage (鏡の影)

🌊 Kagami no Namida (鏡の涙)

It’s about grief and guilt, memory and mercy, and what it means to choose love even when you’re not sure you deserve it.

If you like:

• fractured timelines

• corrupted echoes of self

• quietly devastating emotional payoffs

• redemption that doesn’t come easy

• and soft moments between blades that bleed—

then maybe this story is for you.

All three works are now complete.

Come read, reflect, or quietly sit with the echoes.

Hotarumaru, Aizen and Akashi face an enemy born from their own pasts—a corrupted reflection that knows their every move. But this foe isn’t just a mirror image; it’s a puppetmaster pulling strings that could destroy them all.

A story exploring memory, distortion, and how tightly we cling to one another when reality begins to slip.

Complete story uploaded!

This is a Rai-centric (or should I say Akashi-centric?) fic. It’s the first of a series and I would be so grateful if you could read and review.

(Sorry, Omokage, I don’t know you well enough yet to confidently put you in, but maybe we’ll see.)

7 Seeds Stage Review

Note: Spoilers ahead for both the manga and stage!

Background

When I learnt that Nakada Hiroki was going to be involved in the 7Seeds Stage: Spring Chapter in the role of Mozu, I began searching for information online. (I always make it a point to find out as much as I can about his roles prior to the stage.) There were a few resources, but they seemed rather vague to me, so I decided that the best course of action would be to read the manga itself. As a person who is not (gasp!) an avid manga reader, 178 chapters certainly was a daunting prospect to me, and the art style wasn’t the easiest to decipher, but the storyline after the first arc was compelling enough to keep me going after I got through the initial Summer B arc and reached the Spring chapters, which is where the bulk of this play is premised upon.

I actually enjoyed the manga for its complexities - the huge cast of characters across the five teams was confusing at first, but as I followed the different viewpoints, I came to appreciate the subtleties woven into every character’s motivations. I read the manga over the course of two or three weeks, and it is definitely worth a re-read just to properly appreciate the development of both the characters and the worldview created by Tamura-sensei. Since I read the manga at a relatively fast pace in order to complete it in time for watching the stage, I watched the anime too in order to refresh my memory of several key scenes. I can certainly understand the disappointment the manga fans felt at the subpar quality of the anime, but it was helpful in the sense that it covered most of the key action sequences (minus the subtleties of character motivations, unfortunately.)

Impressions of Mozu (pre-butai)

This man is a hard character, in every sense of the word. He exists very much in the background across all the arcs in the manga, but his hand in the way the events play out is very much present. He is a character that doesn’t give leeway to anyone, himself most of all. He sees it as a necessity for survival in a world that doesn’t give way to anything that doesn’t pass the test. He has lived his entire life upon a knife’s edge, and has a mastery over his skills and surroundings alike. For him, trials are routine, and his stoic demeanour arises from his ability to completely detach himself from any situation so as to view it from its most objective angle. This is consistent with a character for whom survival has become an everyday necessity.

To be honest, I was very surprised at the casting decision for Nakada Hiroki to play him. Hiroki-kun has a wide repertoire as an actor, but most times, he is given roles that induce sympathy from the audience. Having read the manga in its entirety, I felt that he would have been much better suited to play Aramaki-san, a beautiful and relatively mature character who has known many losses in his life, and a shoo-in for audience sympathy. On the other hand, Mozu-san is a character that is as far from sympathetic as we can get, so I was very curious about what Nishida-san’s vision for this stage was, and why he picked Hiroki-kun to portray Mozu. Hiroki-kun also said during one of his monthly livestreams that Nishida-san is a director whom he likes a lot, so I was naturally very intrigued by their collaboration this time. As much as I had my doubts, I felt that it was safe to trust in Nishida-san’s vision, and that he probably could see something that wasn’t immediately apparent to me as an average member of the audience.

The stage

The stage has a minimalist set, with movable steps and ramps that the cast members interact with and set up as they progress through the scenes. To some degree, it is fitting for a post-apocalyptic setting - the new world is what the characters on stage make of it, and for the most part, the audience’s imagination fills in the gaps. The story follows the initial journey of the Spring team quite closely, extending some scenes and stretching out the action in a way that still feels true to the manga. Mozu-san, however, makes his appearance relatively quickly after the initial scene, establishing himself and two other researchers as the key personnel behind the 7Seeds project, and together, they provide much of the exposition for the sake of the audience. Their conversations inform us of the existence of other plans such as the building of shelters in the hope that one (or more) of these plans will work when D-Day arrives. The revelation of Mozu as the shinigami of the group also takes place relatively quickly. It takes away the suspense and mystery that was originally found in the manga with regards to his character arc, but it does make things easier to follow for the first-time viewer. There are also other iykyk references (energy bars, for example) that would appeal to fans of the series, but these are not so obscure as to completely alienate an audience member who may not be familiar with the work. 

My only gripe is that the costuming looks cheap and the portrayal of the dogs, beasts and insects resembles that of a low-budget school play. It is understandable that these would be very difficult to achieve in a stage setting, but I wish they had been able to create more realistic costumes and action sequences. It took away from an otherwise very well-crafted and directed play.

Mozu-san’s portrayal

While I have every confidence that Hiroki-kun can pull off any role he’s cast in, I had some serious doubts about how he would be able to portray Mozu-san, especially when footage of the photoshoot was first released. The images then, which looked soft and sensual, did not match up with my mental impression of the stoic and hardened Mozu-san. Still, I had to believe that Nishida-san had a vision of Mozu-san’s stage portrayal that only Hiroki-kun could match. 

When I finally got to watch the stage performance, I was relieved to see that his portrayal matched the expectations I had of this character, though I wouldn’t go so far as to say that he exceeded my expectations. His Mozu-san is still a hardened survivalist, but the paternal aspect of him which exhibits care for Hana is also presented onstage. It is easy to see why, in the later chapters of the manga, Hana refers to him as Me-chan – the -chan suffix denotes closeness in their relationship. He also reveals an unexpectedly compassionate side of Mozu-san in one of the final exposition scenes, when he gives the researcher he has worked closely with and his family a chance to go into one of the shelters. Hiroki-kun negotiates a fine balance well, between the objective and pragmatic genius visionary and a person who deep down inside does have a heart for his fellow researchers. He casts Mozu-san in a more human light, and that is something I have always appreciated about Hiroki-kun’s acting.

Final thoughts

I’m happy to report that the play stayed faithful to many aspects of the manga, and it met my expectations for the most part. The costuming and action sequences are somewhat regrettable in some parts, but if you are able to look past these, it is a well-crafted and well-balanced play. The anime glossed over many details in its rush to move from one action scene to another, but the play took its time to develop the characters and explore their interactions with one another. Even Yanagi-san was sympathetically portrayed, and I believe that most manga fans would appreciate the care that has gone into the making of this stage.

Overall, I think that the stage is worth watching, perhaps twice over just to fully appreciate all the nuances and subtleties it includes. It’s not an outstanding play by any means, but it makes a good beginning, and there is a strong chance that we can look forward to the future productions featuring the Summer and Autumn teams as well. Nishida-san has created quite a beautiful worldview, and things can only look up from here. 

If you would like to catch the stage (no subs available, sorry!), viewing tickets for the archive can still be purchased at https://l-tike.zaiko.io/e/7seeds. It is available for viewing up till Sunday, 05 January, 2359h JST.

https://x.com/7seeds_stage/status/1870446389764976685?s=46&t=rKKphW-D5skziP-7ZZlMWQ There will be a livestream of the stage on 29 December 2024 at 12nn JST. Do check the link in the tweets for details on how to purchase tickets.

New promotional picture for the Spring-focused 7 Seeds stage play.

Some interesting things, there:

-At the bottom, under the title, are multiple photographs of scenery depicting nature at different seasons. 1 in color, representing spring, then 4 in black and white, with the last one being halfway cut. Looks like a hint that the producers might be interested in making more stage plays for other parts of the manga

-The presence of Mozu and Aramaki seems to indicate this stage play might cover content from volume 5-6. Which I hadn't thought about but isn't too surprising a possibility.

-On the other hand, the characters on the left? They very much look like the cleaning robots builders from the big final arc of the story! I'd be very curious to learn what role they'd have to play in this particular play.

A MASSIVE EFFORT! Thank you so much 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Nakada Hiroki Nakacha no Ma #55 @ Hiroki's GAME Parlor 2024.6.18 Notes [Eng translation]

[Due to NicoNama's services being suspended for the time being, this month's Nakacha was streamed on his gaming channel over at OpenRec instead!]

≫ Intro:

His voice is still raspy (from all the screaming and laughing as Majima I'm assuming)

🎶BGM ↓ 🎙Microphone ↑

He doesn't want to show his face cuz he's got the day off

He says he won't be doing a gaming stream tonight

He's not used to not having the comments pass by on-screen like they do on NicoNama but he'll try to answer our comments to the best of his ability

He tries to enlarge the comments but instead gets rid of them (sasuga)

He apologizes for not being able to stream the day before as planned

He thinks he'll be able to save this broadcast in the archives (it's still there!)

He doesn't read comments on his phone simultaneously when streaming Nakacha but he does when he's at Parlor

He turns his camera on and instantly announces he has a pimple on his cheek

His hair has gotten longer in the last couple of weeks! (The hairdye has faded too)

He doesn't like that the camera quality is as good as it is (then why not change back to streaming on your iPad like before 😭)

The BGM disappeared when he turned his camera on so he's clicking back and forth to get it back, fixes it, but now there's an echo (there's always some type of technical issue lol)

He removes his glasses but quickly realizes he can't see SHIT

This month's drink: Homemade gin soda 700ml

He's only had a few beers recently with some of the LycoReco male cast and action ensemble cast

We've all collectively decided Ono Kento's main scene was the Pants Man scene 🩲

Post-COVID, he thinks female cast members don't go out drinking anymore like the male cast members

One day after rehearsals, he went to Akabane (neighbourhood in northern Tokyo, next to Saitama) by himself and there was this place called Senbero which advertisied food and alcohol for just 1000¥ which he found surprising so he went inside - turns out he had to pay 5000¥ by the end of his meal

He looks like a man who got ripped off

He might have drunk too much (this man istg)

He tries to move the screens around his dual monitors and his mouse keeps making clanking noises on the table

He's remembering that time he forgot to shut off the stream once and had to have upper management remove it for him

He prefers the way the comments go by on NicoNama after all, it's easier for him to read

≫ Lycoris Recoil:

Everyone were really professional

The director Akira-san created a nice atmosphere where you could feel at ease. Hiroki feels like they were good friends and were joking around together every rehearsal

He's bullying Rintaro (affectionately) 🤖

He thinks the Bluray disc will be quite generous with backstage content this time, the cameraman were basically present all the time

After each performance, they had an evaluation meeting for the higawari scenes (he doesn't know if it will be included though; it might be a waste of space, he says)

As for the adlib scene in Robota's room, the director pretty much left it up to Hiroki and Rintaro to do whatever

None of the Guy Hard adlib was part of the script at all

Because they all liked Hiroki's donut adlib (Guy Hard scene) during rehearsals, the director left it up to him too lol He had to step it up each time

He rewatched Die Hard once

He didn't tell Misato (Chisato's actress) his adlib ideas because it wouldn't make them as interesting

He goes on to talk about how he tried to preserve the vividness of reality in his adlib scenes, how each performance is different (compared to if it was to be put in the anime). He thinks the play needed unscripted funny scenes like those as a break from some of the emotionally heavy scenes

He stayed up til 3 in the morning before senshuuraku, creating his own script, to write down the last adlib

Someone in the chat said he did the same thing for DisGOONie's Motherland

However, he couldn't go too meta with his adlibs (apart from senshuuraku) - compared to Yoshi's pantsu scene, that one was allowed to be more meta because it was an imaginary scene lol

Yoshi's pantsu scene wasn't even in the script in the first place!

It's not even Yoshi's scene at this point - it's just a weird old man who likes pantsu lmao

Majima's pantsu are indeed red in the anime but they're (supposedly) black in the preview on YouTube, and because Rintaro was having a hard time with his higawari scenes, they went with that one

Hiroki himself actually didn't want to do the black briefs scene 🩲 He came up with the maid café scene all on his own though (sorry everyone who had to see that) He'd been practicing it ever since rehearsals

That scene was actually so crucial for them as time was precious; they had to time it exactly and finish it in 1 minute and 32 seconds because of the BGM

He's having difficulty with his hair, it get's wavy due to the humidity

Also, his hair dye from last time pretty much disappeared in an instant, it didn't last for more than two weeks

He apologises for using the camera as a mirror

This month's snack: Fried chicken with sweetened vinegar and tartar sauce 🍗 And octopus, broccoli and basil salad 🥦

In the Guy Hard scene, initially Majima and Chisato would just look at each other, go "hmph!" and look away

When he told her she had big eyes, that was just him saying it in the spur of the moment

He was glad the audience seemed to enjoy his off-handed comments at Chisato

They made other comments too like "you've got a tall nose" and "your eyelashes are flimsy"

The pre-show announcement wasn't made by him nor Majima (then who was it?? ww) He isn't sure why they asked him to do it

Within the theatre hall, because of its rules and manners, there are certain words you must use during announcements (such as emergency guidance etc), that's why he didn't say it as Majima

↑ That was the thing he got a message about during last time's Nakacha livestream

He hopes he got a good balance between announcing it as neither Majima nor Nakada

He's flicking around with the aircon he bought himself (brand: Daikin). Since he lives in a rented apartment, it didn't come with the aircon

He's starting to feel the alcohol from just one glass tonight

Whenever he's had a particularly hard performance schedule, it's not the day after the final performance but the day after that when he feels like crashing

He hopes he's given a good performance to those who came to see it for the first time, those who have seen it alot of times, those who have never seen a stage play before, and those who simply like the original work

He thinks he didn't do as much action as Chisato but his moves were quite different in the sense that he had alot of jumping and longer distances to run

It was tough on the body cuz he had to raise his legs alot. He might have told this previously but when he tried kicking for the first time, his muscles were sore all over the next day

He's not used to gun action so that was really difficult for him. Rather than shooting, it's more difficult to look like you're getting shot

There's different types of impact when shooting; rather than pulling or pushing, he's more for gripping and squeezing

He thinks Mari (Fuki's actress) did her shooting impact really beautifully

He apologises to his own muscles for getting hit so many times lol

Majima's bones are probably torn to pieces lol

The first time he got shot, he actually threw up a little

Normally, you would stop the moment you get hit but because of Chisato's rubber bullets, he had to keep going each time

Before he got used to getting shot, he felt like the abnormal titans running

However, he feels like his reactions to getting shot was nothing compared to the action team - they're all pros, after all

He can't decide on his front bangs so he wants to get a headband

Shoutout to Tsukada Tomoki who's an action veteran in the ensemble cast; Hiroki and he met for the first time while on Toumyu Kishou Hongi, they got talking alot together on this stage (he even helped Hiroki out on the Guy Had adlibs)

Chat: "I want to see Hiroki with a sword soon" Him: "Please let the management know. If it's not just coming from me but from all of you, it will probably be decided. So please!"

Majima's whistling was also Hiroki's idea, it wasn't in the script. He was intentionally lowering the last tone to make it more eerie (the whistling was also a reference to Die Hard)

He doesn't remember what they discussed in the after-talk

He didn't mean to stay silent the entire time, he wasn't able to enter the dialogue naturally so he was just awaiting his turn. Then, Kento ended up introducing him

He thought the planking was gonna be a joke (until it wasn't)

He thought he would ruin the vibes if he kept talking for more than 30 minutes

"You gotta be careful with adlibs!" He talked all that time just because he wanted to say that line lol He came up with it the day before, it was for pantsu man's sake

He hasn't thought of any adlibs for Tensura yet

He's off to make another 700ml pint of alcohol 🍺

Aaand he forgets to turn the camera back on for 3 minutes before he notices

He's having his octopus and broccoli salad and reminds us that Majima is not officially affiliated with broccolis ww

He's always liked green as colour and thinks his shirt is cute (brand: TTT MSW, ¥14 300) There were three colours but he chose green 💚

The director of the LycoReco anime told him he wanted to make a Majima spin-off! It would focus on young Majima, Chisato and the Alan children

He wonders if there's any Alan children within Lilybell

He wants to know the story of Majima's parents, he wonders at what age Majima began thinking they way he does

Then again, if they're Alan children, their parents probably aren't in the picture anymore

As a viewer, he's excited to see if LycoReco ever gets a season 2

There's the theory that Yoshi isn't dead after all

He's mulling over the possibility if there were more artificial hearts, and if Yoshi had it put in or not since he still has the scar

He thinks it'd be lame if the heart actually was inside the carrier bag

Suddenly there's a bug in his room and he has to get up to let it out through the window 🤣 And he briefly changes the BGM to last boss music www

≫ Furuba:

He apologizes for not being able to be in Furuba The Final except for a video appearance

He can't think of a time when he's only had a video appearance before (he's had a voice appearance in the Wind Boys musical)

If there's no one there to stop him, his Aya appearance might be 30 minutes long. Yuki might cut him right off though (probably)

Although he's never been in a video appearances, they're always scripted and they're very strict about it so he hopes they won't ask him to improvise

"What's the point of improvising if you've only got one shot?"

Daily adlib video appearances are too much, they're too innovative (that's one way to put it lol) Even if the director Mori tells him it's fine with a smile on his face

He should just be in it already if he's gonna do daily adlib videos

Since it's Aya we're talking about, all of this might be possible because he just wants to bless Yuki

≫ Lycoris Recoil:

Someone in the chat mentions to all LycoReco fans that they can watch Furuba at d-anime Store and DMM TV, and Hiroki tells them they don't have to advertise it 🥺

He's getting frustrated over his hair again; he's got hairpins somewhere but he's not gonna go get them cuz he doesn't want to show his forehead

He seems really happy for the person in the chat who mentions LycoReco was their first irl stage play and they liked his Majima!

The chat asks how it was to perform at G-Rosso, he thinks it was very difficult (due to its height and how steep the steps were), both on stage and backstage, especially in the scene where he had to run at full speed then roll over

He tried searching his indirects (egosa) during the performances but majority turned out to be about Majima Goro from the game, Like a Dragon/Yakuza

He won't say anything else on the matter because he doesn't want to upset fans of the game

He's gotten quite used to how to handle the long coat, he thinks he's good at it

He felt like all air had been punched out of his stomach when he did the last fall

Him stocking the cans were at random each time, but they tried to choose the Gokigen can (imitating the old dairy drink Fukigen) when drinking. For senshuuraku, they absolutely had to choose Gokigen

He apologises for not being able to stream on NicoNama this month but hopes we can spend time together on this platform in the meantime

He thinks it was refreshing to stream on OpenRec like this for once

Congratulations to everyone born in June! 🎉

"We cannot live without you, much like the rainy season!"

No rollcall this month

He hasn't taken a bath in two days, perhaps that's why his hair is the way it is today

"Namaste 🙏"

≫ 2nd part of the stream:

He's feeling fuzzy because of those two drinks yet he goes to make another one

He thought he was gonna be cute and clap his hands on camera, then he looked over and got embarrassed over himself 😭 maji kawachii

He wants us to ask more about LycoReco because at this point he'll absolutely tell us things he shouldn't ww

He feels like the stream is lagging

He starts talking about his Majima wig but gets cut off by his Nanoleafs falling off the wall (he's got a 9 piece set)

He says his computer is paripi (shortened pronunciation of "party people" in Japanese) and sparkly

He wants to show it to us but there are some parts that are quite unsightly so he'll show it some other day

They had Majima's wig remade from scratch for this stage! The amount of hair increased and the silhouette also changed

It was very difficult for him to breathe while wearing Majima's bandages, especially due to his labored breathing from his final battle with Chisato

He wasn't scared to do the last fall, probably because he was in character - he would have been scared if he was himself doing that

He laughs when the chat tells him he fell beautifully

"'The BGM is a bit too loud'? As you wish~"

He wonders what we all think of Majima's fall, how it differs from the original work and what it implies - he says there's no right or wrong, each answer lies within us individually

The chat seems to have enjoyed how he lowered the volume on Robota's phone call

The chat was concerned for Yoshi's ears as well, although Hiroki is more worried about his eyes because of him eating Mintia and blowing his minty breath in Kento's eyes

y'all thought Majima's choice of weapon was a gun but it's actually his breath www Yoshi featuring the mint endurance championships

Hiroki was the one who came up with the marimo adlib for Robota when trying to come up with things that Majima resembled

For senshuuraku, he had already made up his mind that he wanted to do that one ("okaerinasai, goshujin-sama!") even if they repeated it from an earlier performance

He had to hit Robota's head at an angle that the noise would get picked up by the microphone on the inside, yet not hard enough that the mic would fall off (while also being careful not to break it since the head is just a prop 😅)

He's laughing as he shows the screenshot of him hitting Robota that someone sent him

He wants us to look forward to the backstage footage showing nothing but love for his hacker ("mai hakka ai")

They also had Majima likened to a swallow's nest in their drafts for adlibs

While they were thinking of their adlibs, Keigo and Kento were thinking about pantsu adlibs - the boys' dressing room were getting pretty rowdy apparently

He apologises for subjecting us all to his lame adlibs (which he himself found hilarious at the time)

He thinks Rintaro had grown lots as a person since the last stage

There were too many highlights backstage, he doesn't know if/how they're going to include all on the disc later

The chat updates him on all the winner poses Walnut did (Ultraman, Goku's kamehameha, Sailor Moon etc.) The kamehameha pose was for those in the audience in their 30s

He tried saying midori (green) and burokkorii at the same time and ended up with burori (also pronounced as Broly, a character in Dragon Ball) Not to mention Piccolo is also green, but not his hair

Everyone's trying to come up with green things in the chat, he says it's fine if the shape is mushroom-like

Suggestions: Suumo mascot, latok sea grapes, muscat grapes, melon pan, 1/3 of a dango, advocado

He tries to think of the shape but the only thing that comes to mind is a lightbulb

Apparently he had one more idea that he sang about in the wrong key so everyone backstage told him not to do it on stage? (Idk if he's saying 'key' or ki as in tree cuz the chat is mentioning この木なんの木 which seems to be an old song used in commercials which has been used since the 70s?)

Someone mentions Mike from Monsters Inc but he says that would have definitely offended some lol

Back when he did Furuba, there were lots of children in the audience that day and apparently he said a word that sounded like 'unchi' (poop)

Someone mentions Yoda in the chat and he bursts out laughing

If Robota had suddenly said Yoda at him, he absolutely wouldn't have been able to keep his cool

But if it would have been ok to mention Yoda, he might as well have mentioned Shrek too

Someone in the chat writes 誰かが座っているヨーダだ (which can also be read as 誰かが座っているようだ and then gets rid of any copyright *not*) Hiroki compliments their smart move

More NG options: The Mask, Keroro, Toy Story aliens, Grinch, TMNT

He's still going on about trying to picture Robota calling Majima Yoda ww He REALLY wishes he had done that one for the adlib 🤣

He goes on to tell us he doesn't actually know that much about Star Wars; he doesn't really understand the flow or in what order to watch, which is C-3PO or R2D2

Apparently someone told him he resembled C-3PO at one point (he probably did some robot dance moves or something)

He says he's gotten more muscular recently

His muscle training recommendation is planking, he does numerous sets for 2 minutes and then his body is trembling

He says 2 minutes might be too much for girls to handle

Even after 1.5 min he feels like quitting

The chat wants him to do muscle training rooting voice clips 💪

Someone in the chat wants him to say "lose weight, you pig!" (he won't)

He's looking sly over the fact so many seem to want that kind of voice clip

He has no plans of doing Natsu no Jin this summer 🙅‍♂️

He probably won't be doing Aki/Fuyu either due to his schedule

"Please adjust your schedule without trouble. Just prioritise yourself when it comes to your wallet. Valuing yourself the most, that's what's most important to me. That feeling makes me feel happy, or rather, it makes me feel at ease."

He wants to travel somewhere for summer but he won't have the time for it

He tells everyone to be careful now that the cold is going around

He asks if we have any more questions about LycoRico because after today he'll forget all about it lol

For dai senshuuraku curtain call, he intentionally bent the knee when directing the attention towards Chisato and Takina (compared to the other performances where he just gestured with his arm)

Recent 7-11 recommendations: Borscht soup (with a piece of bread)

Although it has meat, it's basically an onion soup

Someone asks him which scene he was the mosts moved by, he can't say for sure a certain scene at the moment but it might be the scene where Takina yells the heart is getting away

Again, it was Hiroki who came up with the idea of mentioning "who's the one to fall off the building" in the Guy Hard scene - he got permission to put it in there

Because the one who fell laughing from the building in Die Hard (?), Majima also laughed when he fell

He thinks finding a balance in today's world is important, and Majima found that in his own sense surely

Even if there's an overflow of good things, that doesn't necessarily cancel out the bad things

(He's going on a bit of a tangent justifying (?) Majima's way of thinking, it's hard to translate - he himself ends it with, "it's difficult")

He just wants to have a serious talk about Majima

"Was it a loss to fall or not?"

(He looks really deep in thought at this point)

That's all for LycoReco 🙌

He's got rehearsals starting again next month!

People are sending him both strawberries and watermelon Yells in the chat

He won't be tweeting tonight; it's no good when he's been drinking

He notices he's been streaming for 3.5 hours at this point

He says he won't be streaming any games today, yet he's still got Placid Plastic Duck Simulator open on the other screen

He totally just bought something in-game (the screen is still cut off)

And he's gone off to the bathroom 🚽

He's got a new pool for the ducks!

It's supposed to be a relaxing game but he can't get his game controller to work so he's stuck using his computer mouse and he keeps hitting it on the table (pls get a mousepad)

He's chewing some ice from his drink and has gotten a bag of Sapporo potato chips that's making alot of noise

His wipe camera is working!

He says BBQ chips are good no matter how old you get

His FENDI earring is hurting his ear now that he's wearing headphones

(His reactions towards the different ducks are adorable but his gaming and excessive clicking is insufferable)

He attempts to yodel the way they do in the game

There's a hot air balloon far away in the distance, he says he wants to go irl but he'd absolutely die from crashing it

He wants to go to the type of lodging that's in the game, but only for two days, then he'd want to go home

He takes a screenshot of the shark duck on screen, then ends the stream after 4 hours 🫶

If we do not get to see Stage Play Aya (Hiroki Nakada) in a wedding dress then a crime will have been committed. Just saying.
