VTuber Legend: How I Went Viral after Forgetting to Turn Off My Stream Volume 1

VTuber Legend Light Novel #1

by Nana Nanato

Twenty-year-old former wage slave Yuki Tanaka now works among her idols: the streamers of Live-On, one of Japan’s top VTuber companies. As the gorgeous, polite Awayuki Kokorone, she delivers only the most ladylike content. Unfortunately, her subscriber count and savings are at rock bottom. One evening, after Yuki thinks she’s ended her stream, she cracks a few cold ones—and more than a few crude jokes—while watching Live-On’s video archives. But her viewers hear it all, and clips of her bawdy, drunken commentary go viral overnight. Yuki thinks her career is over...until her manager reveals that everyone at Live-On has been waiting for her to snap all along and gives her free rein to drink on-stream. Now free of all feigned purity, she jumps right into her new “rowdy drunk” character and is welcomed into the fold by her fellow Live-On VTubers, who turn out to be just as crazy as she is! With her views and finances skyrocketing, Yuki’s work—for the first time in her life—is actually fun!

It was definitely a special type of reads.

For people that are avid readers for manga, anime and other Japanese pop culture this book's reference and description may resonate with you more and people that are not hook up into it likely get lost.

And the LN require basic awareness and knowledge for how Vtubing and Idol industry works to get greater understanding of the term and context being mentioned by the author.

If you understand both of these, the contextual description and reference can be stomachable and even enjoyable to read.

This one was just not for me. Too steeped in VTuber culture, which I didn’t know much about and after reading this, has little appeal. I’m sure those of whom dig that culture will get more out of it than I did.

Review/Rating⭐
(I give this light novel 2 stars)💙
(Im dissapointed, i was so excited to read this book i like the synopsis,i like the character designs, and it looks so funny but it turns into a dissapointment its very cringey especially the comment section in the book im like making a disgusted face while reading this book, the reason i gave this book a 2 star because the first 30 pages was so funny and wholesome but after she got to collab to someone it turns into a very pervy and cringey book.)💙
(I'll recommend this book to an adult audience because there was a lot of Sxx mention and i reccomend this to a person who can really relate to vtuber culture, i can't relate much because i dont even watch vtubers.)💙

(Finally im gonna read narnia im so excited i watched the movies way way before and i forgot about the only thing i remember is a lion and the wardrobe but now finally
im gonna read it next.)💙

Con lo que más me quedo es la increible traducción al inglés. El último 9% es la traductora contándote las referencias. Es muy jodido traducir shitpost, pero se nota que se divirtió mucho.

I don't know how or why I ended up reading this. It truly is a unique style and I still don't fully understand what I just read.
I think reading this is better than doomscrolling late at night.

I grabbed this volume after watching the anime. It's really enjoyable.

Fun and meme-y. Requires some familiarity with the VTuber fan community because there are a lot of references.
