Big Balls, Small Excuses
On defending bad apples, fake friendship theater, big talk and small excuses, and why neutrality beats aligned hypocrisy.
Soooo… ummm… hiiii~ it’s meeee ur fav kawaii hunter gurl ✨ and today… instead of just carting to Rathalos like a baka… I’m writing my academic thesis on… well… being an uwu Monster Hunter streamer.
Yes, it’s super serious… no, I don’t have a degree… unless u count the one in making chat blush (´。• ᵕ •。`)
Oki so like… people always ask: “Why do u talk in uwu??”
And the answer is… because it’s cute and it works.
See?? Social science.
Start Time = Relationship Time
I never just start a hunt. I go: “good evening my hunters, did u miss me??” … and u always say yes. Hehe. That’s like, step one of my ritual.
Fashion Before Function
Who cares about “meta armor”? Not meee. If it’s pink and has bows, I’m wearing it. If I cart? Oopsie~ but I look adorable doing it.
The Cart Performance
Yesss… sometimes I pretend to forget mechanics. Why? Cuz chat loves to rescue me. If I act too pro, no one feels special. But if I scream and cart?? Suddenly 50 messages telling me what button to press. Mission accomplished.
Goodnight Aftercare
At the end I always say something like: “Don’t watch other hunters tonight, kay? Dream of me onlyyy~ 💕” … because… like… it makes u feel close to me. Parasocial science babyyy~ (≧◡≦)
Yes, yes, I know… this sounds silly… but parasociality is like, a real thing?? (I googled it once while eating ramen.)
It’s basically anime girlfriend simulator but with big angry dinosaurs.
Am I min-maxing DPS? No.
Am I min-maxing your heart? Yesss~ (◕‿↼✿)
Being a Monster Hunter uwu streamer isn’t about Rathalos plates or Zinogre sets. It’s about making every hunt feel like an episode of a slice-of-life anime where chat is the main character and I’m the flustered heroine who keeps saying “b-baka~”.
So pls… stay my hunters forever, ne?
Don’t cheat on me with other streamers… or else I’ll cart IRL (´;д;`).
Oyasumiii my cuties~ chu chu~ 💕
