Backstage Stories

Itaru	Ugh...
Izumi	What happened?
Itaru	Landlord-san, actually...
Yuki	I bet it's about the material of his videos again.
Banri	Must be it.
Citron	Itaru will do punctual move for his videos.^[1]
Tsuzuru	You mean, mutual love?
Itaru	I haven't said anything yet.
Chikage	Heh....Is it wrong?
Itaru	No, that’s not it.
Izumi	Come to think of it, I haven't watched Itaru's videos. What kind of videos are you doing?
Itaru	I am mainly doing reviews on newly-released games, some hardcore and retros. I’m also introducing game goods too.
Banri	Game companies are totally sponsoring it from behind.
Itaru	That's right. I am receiving new games and goods from them.
Izumi	That's amazing.
Itaru	But lately, the number of views and channel subscribers isn't increasing at all.
	So I'm looking for interesting video material.
Tenma	Wouldn't it be better if you just show your face?
Yuki	It's the only way to make it work out.
Kazunari	That's gonna blast the number of subscribers.
Itaru	That’s doable but I want to avoid showing my face. It's going to cause a lot of trouble.
	That's why, I need you guys to suggest video materials that will increase the number of views. I've gathered so many diverse people here so there should be something, right?
Izumi	Materials for video?
Tenma	How about making reviews about bonsai? There’s no else doing it and it’s refined. I think it’s good.
Chikage	Viewer’s average age will go up all at once.
Tsuzuru	That's way too hardcore.
Tsumugi	How about flower arrangement? It might look gorgeous in video.
Yuki	How about fashion code? Your style isn't bad either and it'll be interesting to wear different clothes.
Chikage	How about trying spicy foods from different countries. I'll lend you my secret special spicy sauce.
Izumi	I see. It might be nice to eat curry from different countries.
Tsumugi	Isn’t that our usual thing….
Banri	You, curry duo, do it somewhere else!
Citron	You can do 1 content a day! It’s virus marketing!^[2]
Tsuzuru	Viral marketing is no good !
Itaru	Hmm... My main goal certainly is to try something new. I wonder if these are worth doing to earn more views.

Itaru	Fashion code and bonsai is all good...

	Next is, spicy curry review…Can I even do this? If only I had an absurd tongue.
	....None of them is good enough. Aren’t these way too strange? It's especially difficult to judge whether it’s interesting or not cuz the target audience is too small.
	...Anyway, let’s up it for now….

Izumi	(I need to buy detergent and toilet paper. Speaking of, we need to change the lightbulbs too.)
Chikage	Is this supposed to be interesting? I don't understand anything at all.
Tsumugi	Uh...Hmm...
Banri	Isn’t this revolutionary in a sense?
Izumi	(Everyone's gathering around. I wonder what happened...)
	Seems like everyone is getting excited. What's going on?
Kazunari	Itarun made a video following our advice earlier !
Citron	Itaru did his best but it is kinda strange.
Tsuzuru	The comment section is different from usual too. Everyone is rather baffled...
Izumi	Eh? Is that so?
Comment 1	[Taruchi, what a sudden change of direction.]
Comment 2	[Why tho ? lol ]
Comment 3	[Somehow, it’s getting off topic, isn’t it?]
Banri	The number of views is also lower than usual.
Tsumugi	I wonder if giving him advice was the right thing.
Tsuzuru	What do we expect? They were suddenly shown a bonsai when they came to see a game live.
Chikage	I think a video about spices is good in its own way.
Banri	Stop being delusional.
Izumi	It's surprisingly difficult to make the number of viewers increase.
Kazunari	Ah, landlord-chan. Are you going to shop for house supplies? Can you buy sweets from the convenience store on your way home?
Citron	My manzai notebook is getting stiff too. I want to buy a new one.
Izumi	Understood. I'll buy them.
	(Seems like we're running out of equipment too. I might as well check the warehouse)
Itaru	It's Taruchi~.
	Kniroun's new capsule toy was finally released~.

	I splurge on 100 pieces this time so let's start unboxing ~
	First one is---
	So far, I got 15 normal pieces, 3 copper pieces, and 1 silver piece. I got a silver piece so I think my pace is pretty good.
	Next, moving to our 20th piece.. Huh? This is....
	Door opening
Izumi	.... Ah!
Itaru	......!
	Ahh Seriously?! I can't use this video anymore.
Izumi	A-Are you filming your video in this place?
Itaru	Sigh... HP-1 .
Izumi	I don’t really get it but I'm sorry... Umm... How about editing it?
Itaru	But in unboxing videos, there's the feeling of joy and sorrow while opening the piece. Doing it in one go is my policy.
Izumi	Right? What is an unboxing video in the first place?
Itaru	It's a video where you open blind items one by one. You have no idea what's going to come out so there's a feeling of excitement.
	I’m doing an unboxing video for 100 pieces everytime a new product is released.
	The number of viewers for this series is stable. That's why it's solid material to earn an audience.
Izumi	It sure takes so much hard work, doesn't it?
	Ah, by the way, I'll go shopping later. Can I buy new pieces in exchange for the ones you opened earlier?
Itaru	Really? I won't say no to your offer then.
Izumi	Don't get angry if I don't get good ones, okay?
Itaru	It's totally fine! That’s what makes whaling^[3] interesting after all.

Izumi	For tomorrow’s agenda, I have a meeting with Sakyo-san in the afternoon and--
	Ah speaking of, I wonder what happened to Itaru's unboxing video?)
Kazunari	Haha! This is insane!
Banri	Ain’t this a godly pull?
Izumi	Everyone is lively today.
Citron	Oh ! You're just in time. Itaru’s number of views is footing up!^[4]
Banri	You mean, shooting up! Landlord-san helped with the video without knowing.
Izumi	Huh? Ah, could it be the one earlier?
Chikage	This one. Aren't the views about to reach 1 million?
Yuki	Compared to the hack's previous suggestion, the difference is heaven and earth.
Kazunari	The title is "Kniroun Capsule Toy Unboxing ~feat. Landlord-san". It's going viral! It’s crazy!
Chikage	Landlord-san, watch with us. The merit goes to you in this one.
Izumi	I-Is it really that great?
Itaru	[The last 20 capsule toys are from landlord-san! Let's see-- Ehh?! Wait? Seriously?! Woah! ]
	[A super-rare gold Knight-kun came! ]
	[Is this a sign for me to continue whaling? Landlord-san is too much of a cheat!]
Comment 1	[ Landlord-san is amazing.lol]
Comment 2	[Taruchi's so hyped. lol ]
Comment 3	[Maybe, landlord-san a goddess? lol]
Itaru	[That's the end of it. Maybe I should have her pull the next gacha too?]
	[Please look forward to my next video. ]
	[Ah.. If you like my videos, don’t forget to subscribe to my channel~ ! ]
Izumi	Uhh.. I'm glad I could be of help.
Kazunari	Landlord-chan just became a celebrity! Congrats!
Itaru	Ohh, everybody's been watching me? Didn’t it turn out well this time?
Citron	G'job on your video!
Chikage	That's the power of our landlord.
Kazunari	At this rate, the dream of breaking your record again might not be far away!
Itaru	Thanks to landlord-san's help, the numbers are looking good. I’d love to do more landlord-san series so I’m counting on you.
Izumi	I-I don’t mind helping sometimes…?
Itaru	Thanks !
	Ah, everyone, subscribe to my channel~!
Yuki	...Just who are you talking to?

Notes

↑ Citron refers to"掃除相談” (Sōji sōdan) which literally means ‘cleaning consultation’. In which Tsuzuru tried to correct him to "“相思相愛” (Sōshisōai) which literally means 'mutual love’.
↑ Citron used the term "人炎上" (hito enjo) which literally means 'flaming person.’ Tsuzuru corrected him and said “炎上商法” (Enjō shōhō) or Enjo Marketing, meaning ‘flaming commercial law’: an advertisement technique that aims to produce cliche content that are as shareable as possible.
↑ Itaru used the term "ドブ" or "ドブる", a slang word for the act of throwing money on several pulls to get a high-rarity items/ cards from a gacha or capsule machines. In short, whaling.
↑ Citron mistook 鯉のぼり(carp streamer) for"うなぎのぼり" (shooting up).
↑ Citron says 掃除相談 which translates literally to “cleaning consultation.” I played off Tsuzuru’s correction “mutual affection” because it sounds similar, and because the idea of Citron unintentionally but lowkey roasting Itaru gives me life LOL
↑ Citron says 人気が大炎上アルマゲドン, basically suggesting Itaru mass flame popular things online for attention.
↑ Tsuzuru says 炎上商法はダメ! This is a marketing tactic used where you purposely flame things/talk shit about things in order to garner attention. Basically bad publicity is still publicity, and Tsuzuru is telling them not to do that.
↑ [1] Itaru says テッパンネタ, slang for content that is guaranteed for sure. I went with “go-to” because it’s also slang that conveys a similar meaning.
↑ Citron says 鯉のぼり(this is a pun, literally means “carp banner”) which he mistook for うなぎのぼり, which means “soaring, skyrocketing, rising in an instant” (everyone say thank you to Banri for the correction.) Since I went with “skyrocketing” I also! made a pun and used “airplaning” for Citron’s Citronism.
↑ HE’S BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL I HATE THIS GUY

Itaru	Hmmm…..
Izumi	What’s the matter?
Itaru	Landlady-san…. The truth is….
Yuki	No doubt it’s about content for your videos, huh.
Banri	That’s the only thing it’d be about.
Citron	It’s muted attention^[5] between Itaru and his videos.
Tsuzuru	I think you meant, “mutual affection.”
Itaru	But I haven’t said anything yet.
Chikage	Oh…? But are we wrong?
Itaru	…..You’re not wrong.
Izumi	Now that you mention it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of Itaru-san’s videos….What kind of videos are they?
Itaru	Primarily, they’re videos centered on reviews for new games, but there’s lots of videos on games for enthusiasts and retro games too. And then there are videos showcasing game merch.
Banri	You’re totally sponsored by game companies, huh.
Itaru	Yep. Thanks to that, I get new games and merch.
Izumi	Wow, that’s amazing.
Itaru	But lately I feel like I’m stuck in a rut, so my views and the number of subscribers to my channel haven’t gone up….
	That’s why I’m looking for something interesting to use as content for my videos.
Tenma	Couldn’t you just show your face, then?
Yuki	That’s your only good point after all.
Kazunari	For real! Your subscriber count will explode☆
Itaru	Sure I could use that method, but…If I show my face, it’d be a pain in the ass in a lot of ways so I want to avoid that.
	Please give me some kind of content that can get me more subscribers. Since I’ve gathered a wide variety of people here, I figured someone’s gotta have something, right?
Izumi	Video content, huh……
Tenma	How about reviewing bonsai plants? No two are alike, and I think it can be enlightening.
Chikage	The average age range of the viewers will rise in an instant instead of views and subscribers.
Tsuzuru	That’s too niche….
Tsumugi	If you did flower arranging, you could do a gorgeous display on screen maybe?
Yuki	What about coordinating fashion? Your style’s decently passing, and it’d be amusing if you wore different kinds of outfits.
Chikage	What if you tried eating spicy things from different countries? Especially a secret, super spicy hot sauce. I’ll supply you with some.
Izumi	I see, it might also be a good idea to try eating curry from different countries too!
Tsumugi	That’s….not much different from usual….
Banri	Go do your Curry Club somewhere else.
Citron	Do a skit a day! A huge flame war armageddon against what is popular!^[6]
Tsuzuru	Don’t use flaming for publicity!^[7]
Itaru	Hmmm…. Those all seem different from my usual content, but it’s worth a try if it’ll get me views.

Itaru	The videos on coordinating fashion and on bonsai are finished…Next is the review on the super spicy curry….Can I even do that? I’d have to be an idiot without a tongue if I did.

Itaru	…I feel like it’s missing something, like there’s too much going on with all this miscellaneous content. It’s difficult to judge what will be popular or not, especially with the skits since I don’t have an audience.
	….Whatevs, I’ll just upload it…

Izumi	(I need to buy detergent and toilet paper…..Which reminds me, that light bulb needed to be changed.)
Chikage	You call that interesting? I don’t get it at all though.
Tsumugi	U-Umm…..
Banri	Ain’t this revolutionary in its own way?
Izumi	(Everyone’s gathering together. I wonder why…)
	Things look pretty heated here. Did something happen?
Kazunari	Seems like Itaroon followed our advice from before cuz he put out videos immediately~
Citron	Itaru worked really hard, huh! But it’s kind of strange.
Tsuzuru	People in the comments are saying it’s different from his usual videos, so you could say we’re all feeling bothered by it….
Izumi	Eh? Is that so?
Comment 1	“You changed all of a sudden, Taruchi.”
Comment 2	“maybe something happened LOL”
Comment 3	“isnt he kind of off topic from his usual stuff?”
Banri	The number of views are lower than before too.
Tsumugi	We’re wondering what we should do since we were the ones who gave him those suggestions…
Tsuzuru	Well, it’s understandable, since people came to his channel expecting to see let’s-play videos only to be shown a bonsai out of nowhere…
Chikage	I think his videos on extremely hot spices are pretty good themselves, though.
Banri	You’re trippin’.
Izumi	It must be difficult to increase your view count, huh…
Kazunari	Ah, Landlady-san, are you heading out to do some shopping? If you are, can I ask you to grab me some sweets from the conbini on your way back?
Citron	My notebook for jokes is getting pretty full, so I want you to buy me a new one!
Izumi	Got it. I’ll go buy them together.
	(It looks like we’re running out of a bunch of equipment, too… I’ll go check the warehouse.)

Itaru	This is taruchiiii~ They released a new line-up in the KniRoun capsule toy series~
	This time I bought 100 of them, so let’s get to unboxing~
	And the first one isーー

Itaru	15 normal rares, 3 bronze rares, and 1 silver rare. I managed to get a silver, so I think the pace is pretty good so far.
	Next, for the lucky twentieth pull… Huh? This isーー
Izumi	…Oh.
Itaru	…!
	Ahh, seriously!? I can’t use this video anymore…
Izumi	Y-You were filming your video in a place like this!?
Itaru	sighs Down to 1 HP…
Izumi	I don’t really know what just happened, but I’m sorry… Um, is there any way you can edit over it?
Itaru	The fun part about unboxing videos are the ups and downs you feel as you open them. It’s my policy to record it all in one shot.
Izumi	So that’s how it is… By the way, just what is an unboxing video?
Itaru	A video where you open up goods with their contents hidden one by one. You don’t know what’s gonna come out of them, which makes you feel excited.
	Every time they come out with a new line-up, I make a video like this where I open up a hundred of them. This series is my go-to^[8] cuz it always gets me a solid number of views.
Izumi	Isn’t it pretty tiring doing it so steadily like that…?
	Oh, that’s right. I’m heading out to do some shopping after this, so why don’t I buy you some capsules to make up for what you opened earlier?
Itaru	Seriously? I won’t hesitate to ask you to then.
Izumi	If you don’t get anything good, please don’t get mad at me, alright?
Itaru	It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s funny pulling dupe upon dupe.

Izumi	(That’s everything for tomorrow. I have a meeting with Sakyo-san in the afternoon, and… Ah, which reminds me, I wonder how Itaru-san’s unboxing video turned out?
Kazunari	Haha, this is crazy!
Banri	Isn’t this god-tier?
Izumi	You all seem pretty excited today too.
Citron	Ohh! You came at the right time! Itaru’s video is airplane-ing^[9]
Banri	It’s, “skyrocketing.” You helped out with the shoot without knowin’ it.
Izumi	Huh? Ah, are you talking about from before…?
Chikage	This one. Isn’t it about to hit one million views?
Yuki	When you compare it to the hack’s suggestion, the difference is like heaven and earth.
Kazunari	The title’s called, “KniRoun Capsule Toy Unboxing Feat. the Landlady-san~” It’s totes going viral like crazy!
Chikage	You should watch it too, Landlady-san. You had a hand in it, after all.
Izumi	I-Is it really that amazing…?

Itaru	“The 20th capsule, the last one from the landlady is… WHAT!? Wait, seriously!? OMG”
	“A super rare gold Knight of the Round Table-kun GET!”
	“Were all my dupe pulls just to prepare me for this? Landlady-san, you’re too OP.”
Comment 1	“your landlady’s insane lol”
Comment 2	“Taruchi’s excited LOL”
Comment 3	“lmaoo your landladys a goddess”
Itaru	“That’s the last of the capsules the landlady got for me. Maybe I should ask her to pull in the gacha for me next.”
	“Until then, look forward to my next video~”
	“Oh, and if you like what I do, please subscribe to my channel~”

Izumi	Umm… I’m glad I could help.
Kazunari	You’re famous, Landlady-san! ‘Grats!
Itaru	Ah, you’re all watching my video already? How was it? Isn’t it better this time?
Citron	Thanks for uploading!
Chikage	The power of our landlady is incredible.
Kazunari	At this rate, you’ll make a record-breaking number of views a reality!
Itaru	Thanks to you, Landlady-san, my numbers are doing great. I want to do a series with you from now on, just like this.
Izumi	Only if it’s once in a while…
Itaru	Thanks.
	Ah, everyone, don’t forget to subscribe to my channel~^[10]
Yuki	…Who are you talking to?
