Chapter 156. [The Reason My Oshi Lives Japan]

<<So, what have you been up to for the past week, Ogu?>>

<<Well, um...>>

It had been one week since Angu Ogu moved in. 

My predictions had been spot on. 

She could only stay in Japan for a month, so today marked the eagerly awaited 2nd online collabs, at her request...

When I arrived at her place, I was left dumbfounded. 

The time had come, so I reluctantly started the stream.

<<The place is still a mess, and convenience store trash is scattered everywhere. Has the house become dirtier, or is it just my imagination? And come to think of it, has her luggage increased?>>

<<I-I think it's just your imagination!>>

>I knew this would happen, LOL! (U.S.)

>Tell her to be more careful from the get-go! (U.S.)

>Is this a wife, or should I say, Mom? (U.S.)

Honestly, I've been quite reliant on my mom when it comes to my health.

So, I don't really want to meddle in other people's business too much.

<<What will you do if you get sick from living like this?>>

<<Iroha, are you worried about me?>>

<<This body doesn't belong to just Angu Ogu alone, you know.>>

>Congratulations!?!?!?>>

>Huh!? You and Iroha are finally having a child!? (U.S.)

>I told you to use contraception so many times! (U.S.)

<<No wayyyyy!?!?!? No way that could happen! It's everyone's oshis! I said fans are worried, you know!?>>

<<Seriously, why are we the first ones to be suspected like this? Besides, technically, I'm biologically female right now too, you know!?>>

<<Honestly, Iroha, you're not straightforward at all. But don't worry, everything's fine. To be honest, I'm eating healthier now than when I was living alone in America.>>

<<Healthier? What's healthy about convenience store food?>>

<<Huh? Isn't all the convenience store food in Japan healthy, with lots of veggies and stuff?>>

Oh right. This person came from America. 

Compared to their meals over there, I guess all Japanese food would seem "healthy".

<<And it's cheap and delicious too! I'd love to take Japanese convenience stores back to America!... I wonder how much that would cost?>>

<<Are you seriously thinking about it?!?>>

And whether it's cheap or not is up for debate. Well, it's probably cheap compared to American prices.

<<It's also nice how you can find them everywhere in town. I got there in just 3 minutes with "door-to-door" measurements! Isn't that amazing?!?>>

<<It's almost too convenient. Didn't you say something about wanting to eat various regional specialties from different countries when you came to Japan? Is it okay to waste meal opportunities like this?>>

<<B-But there are so many options, and Japan has many seasonal items. I haven't tried this or that yet, so maybe I'll stick with the convenience stores for a bit longer.>>

>If there was something like that within walking distance, I'd go there every day! (U.S.)

>Here, the closest store is basically a 30-minute drive away, you know? (U.S.)

>Japan is compact, so everything is close by (U.S.)

<<I really think so too. But being compact isn't always a good thing. I should have scouted it out beforehand, but even so, the house feels a bit small, you know?>>

It's not like I'm saying I'd rather have a house bigger than the White House! 

That's not what I mean.

<<So, is it because the house is small that you haven't been able to tidy up?>>

<<Huh!? W-Well, that might be one of the reasons, I guess~?>>

<<Geez...>>

<<No, there are other reasons too!>>

As I turned my gaze toward her, it seemed like Angu Ogu felt her excuses were weak and started explaining.

But in reality, it seemed like she had been quite busy.

<<There were procedures related to the move, exchanges with the Japanese office, and since I came to Japan, I also did offline collaborations with other VTubers.>>

<<...I see.>>

<<And I encountered both good and bad aspects of Japan that I couldn't have known from just traveling.>>

<<What happened?>>

Angu Ogu placed her hand on her chin and said, "Well..." Then she began sharing her personal experiences.

<<I thought Japan was a very scientifically advanced country. The internet speed is fast and stable. Convenience stores and delivery services are top-notch. Honestly, for streaming as a VTuber, it might be the best environment.>>

Recommended for VTubers. 

Hearing that praise didn't make me feel bad at all.

However, Angu Ogu continued with a <<But...>>.

<<At the same time, I also thought it was a country that's scientifically "backward". Because everything... is paper, paper, paper! Everything revolves around paper! Why don't they go paperless?>>

<<Ah, I see.>>

<<I can speak and understand Japanese to a certain extent. But I'm not good at reading and writing yet, so I often make mistakes when writing. Even when doing things like moving or handling insurance, I have to go to the city hall every time.>>

Angu Ogu exclaimed, "Ugh!". 

It seemed like she had accumulated quite a bit of stress.

Honestly, I think the same way about that aspect. 

In fact, wouldn't almost everyone in the younger generation feel the same way?

<<Japan is so-called "science-worshipping", yet they cling to paper like it's from the Stone Age in some weird areas. It feels like they're out of sync!>>

<<Y-Yeah, you're right.>>

What Angu Ogu pointed out were the aspects of daily life in Japan that had become "normal" and customs that people had accepted as "unavoidable".
