Chapter 140: [White House]

The American VTuber market is currently hot! Angu Ogu, not realizing this, is probably because she's directly involved.

Being at the center of a storm makes it hard to feel the wind.

"To be honest, a ton of massive VTuber events happening over there from around ‘summer' this year to the end of the year!"

"Is that so?"

"Yeah, it is! As for the live event happening in America this summer, I've already secured tickets and bought early shipment goods in preparation! And there are so many other events after that!"

I excitedly tell Angu Ogu, gasping for breath.

Evangelizing is so much fun!

"Because America is just so huge, it used to be quite challenging for these kinds of things, but the number of VTubers has increased!"

"I've also noticed an increase in plans for cross-state travel."

"Now, the VTubers from the ‘new generation' that emerged are growing up, and they've reached a level where they can hold on-site live events, especially the supermassive event we're going to be a part of is coming up, you know?"

"Thinking about it like this, there is a lot!"

"Yes! Exactly! This is the time when things will be the most exciting!"

Saying that, I lean in closer to Angu Ogu.

She seems a little flustered.

"I haven't followed the ‘new generation' of VTubers closely, and I haven't recognized them... and their colors? It's a bit, well, their faces are very close..."

"I understand, Ogu. Can you feel the excitement over there? The timing is similar to Japan, if not even better! Among them, the VTuber I'm particularly looking forward to—"

"I, I get it. I got it, so calm down. It's not good to be this close, and our faces, lips, they're about to touch... This, this is too much... Seriously, stop it already!"

"Iroha-chan, stop~~~!"

Angu Ogu pushes me away with her palm.

Furthermore, Mai restrains me.

Finally, I snap back to my senses.

At some point, in my excitement, our faces had gotten so close that our noses almost touched.

I quickly move back.

"Geez, Angu-san, what are you thinking?! You should know that asking Iroha-chan about VTubers would lead to this situation!"

In truth, my study abroad starting in August was planned to coincide with the events.

Schools in America often start in September.

However, that would mean I'd be attending middle school in Japan until around June.

The excitement would already be starting—America's summer vacation begins at the beginning of June, and there was a chance I wouldn't make it.

"Ahh, I underestimated Iroha. I never thought it would be to this extent. Could it be that the choice of moving was also synchronized with the events?"

"...Is that wrong?"

"Guess it's not, huh?"

Well, America is big.

If you don't consider the location carefully, it's not easy to get to places even within the same country...

"Yeah. By the way, will you be staying in a dorm over there?"

"No, if I did, I wouldn't be able to stream, so I'll be renting a place."

"In that case, let's live together!"

"No, Angu is going to come to Japan, right?"

Wait, Angu Ogu is living with her parents now, right?

Well, even if she weren't present, she does have experience living there, and she knows the situation, so it's reassuring.

But well, what about the location?

Where was it again?

Oops, I forgot.

"Where does Angu Ogu live?"

"??? Obviously, in Washington D.C."

"Why?"

"Why? Because, well, my family..."

"The ‘White House', right?"

I burst out laughing inadvertently.
