[【Izumi Kainoh’s New Outfit】 Here’s the reveal! Everyone is super excited, right?! I’ll definitely reward your anticipation!!! #Star’s Flow #IzumiKainoh]

-─(≧▽≦)> Zumi Zumi!

-─(≧▽≦)> Zumi Zumi!

Thump thump I’m so nervous!

I’ve been waiting for this day!!!

The chatroom was already flooded with supportive players showing their anticipation.

Well, it makes sense for fans to react like that if it’s their favorite’s new outfit.

But right now, that excitement felt more like a massive burden to me.

My head hurts…

“Ahhh…”

I slowly take a deep breath.

Yeah. It’s not like I can change anything by getting tense.

Anyway, I have to do the outfit reveal broadcast today and show the new outfit that Aunt Shia sent me to nearly 30,000 supportive players.

So I might as well relax and do it like usual, right?

[Natsune Nanase: Are you okay? If you’re having a hard time, let me know. I’m an older sister, so I’ll do my best to help!]

Taking a deep breath, I glance at Natsune’s DM, my version of a drug, and steady my nerves.

Feeling my racing heart gradually calm down, I look back at the monitor once more.

“I’ve been waiting!!!”

“Please start soon!”

-─(≧▽≦)> Zumi Zumi!

“I can’t contain my excitement!”

What will these guys say once they see the new outfit?

Honestly, from a personal standpoint, I think it’s going to be amazing.

It’s drawn by Aunt Shia, who’s none other than ‘Toka Yukino,’ a top-notch illustrator in the industry.

There’s no way I could dislike Toka Mama’s art.

But still… I never expected Aunt Shia would come up with something like this…

Before I knew it, the time was 7:58 PM.

It was truly time to start.

I woke up like usual in the morning, went to school… attended classes, went home… came back and tried various things to clear my head, but the tension just wouldn’t fade.

[Sorry, Mina…]

Aunt Shia’s apology from the other day echoed in my mind.

Was that apology really genuine?

Probably not. When we talked afterward, Aunt Shia was all happy and chatty.

Well, as someone who draws too, I can’t say I don’t understand her feelings…

Especially since this is a congratulatory gift, I can’t really push back on that either.

Right. There’s nothing I can do now. I have to enjoy this.

7:59:55. 56. 57. 58. 59.

And then, it was 8 o’clock.

“C-CONGRATULATIONS! The atmosphere maker, Izumi Kainoh, is here…!”

-Hi Zumi!

-You’re hereeee!!!

With a wild cheer welcoming me, my supportive players sure are excited, huh? My feelings are all tangled up right now.

…But that anticipation. I can’t ignore it, knowing how thrilling it is for a favorite’s outfit reveal.

“F-Finally…! The outfit reveal is hereeeeee…!!!”

“It feels like I’ve waited for ages!”

“I didn’t sleep for two days, just waiting for today!”

“Ugh… I know I shouldn’t say this, but please try to sleep…! Ahem! Anyway…! It’s the first new outfit since I received the kimono last New Year’s… it’s been a bit over a year…?”

-Feels short yet long at the same time.

-It’s practically my first new outfit!

“Does it… feel like that? Well, sure. The New Year’s outfits are for all members, so…”

Thinking about it that way makes it feel a bit more special.

Especially since I heard Aunt Shia’s been super busy, making it tricky to coordinate schedules for the outfit.

Among the second-generation members, I’m the only one without an outfit, aside from the New Year’s attire.

If I had ended up getting my outfit later than the juniors… I probably would have been super sad.

But looking back, I can’t help but be grateful that Aunt Shia, who’s swamped with work, prepared this outfit to celebrate our 300,000 subscribers.

“Well then, shall we take a closer look, one by one?”

As I say that, I pull up the outfit on the screen.

More specifically, the black silhouette of the outfit appears on display.

“What kind of silhouette do you guys think it is?”

-I’m curious about what your expectations were.

-I’m super excited just by the silhouette!

-Hopefully something interesting comes out!

The outfit reveal is different from the New Year’s reveal held last year.

The New Year’s outfit means kimonos, so the range of outfits you can imagine is limited.

But in this case, the supportive players only know one thing: “A new outfit is coming.”

That means the range of expectations has expanded dramatically.

And the content utilizing this is precisely “Silhouette Expectations.”

Looking at the silhouette of the new outfit, they guess what it could be, draw the outfits they wish to see, and tag them on their creative platform.

Then, when the outfit reveal party begins, the VTuber searches through those tags to see how people envisioned the new outfit and discuss it.

I had drawn quite a few expectations for Natsune’s outfit silhouette when it first came out.

Although I have never posted them on the creative platform or other communities…

“Now… the first one is this…!”

I picked the one that made me laugh the most when I searched for it.

It’s not that it was poorly drawn.

In fact, it was drawn so well that it made me chuckle.

-LOL

-That does not suit Mei at all, haha!

-It’s an impossible future, haha!

The character’s hair was dyed a flashy golden hue, and the length of the school uniform sleeves seemed to be stretched out with cute accessories hanging from them.

The bottom of the uniform top was tied up, and the skirt was cut so short it could be considered embarrassing.

Yes.

The prediction I displayed was… “Kainoh Izumi as a blonde gyaru.”

Of course, my base avatar also looks playful, but it’s a bit different from a gyaru.

Just like the chatroom said, I laughed a lot thinking, “There’s no way I could walk around like this!”

But I certainly wouldn’t say that out loud.

“Wow… don’t you think this outfit totally suits me?!”

At this moment, I’m the super social atmosphere maker, Izumi Kainoh…

-What?

-There’s a mismatch in interpretation…

-Is it really Mei, the atmosphere maker…?

“Why is that?!”

I mean, I think that too!

“B-But this is… it looks cute, but it’s kind of risqué…?”

The design sent by the supportive player making Izumi as a gyaru is… quite revealing, honestly.

The skirt barely covers half of the thighs, and the front of the uniform is slightly unbuttoned, exposing some cleavage.

The expression even gives off an oddly seductive smile.

-Surely too adult-like for Mei…

“Hey! A high school student is definitely old enough, you know?! I just said it suited me, didn’t I?!”

-That just proves you’re still young.

-You’re just thinking that by yourself.

“Uwaaa…!”

No. Calm down. I already know that the supportive players are like that.

Getting flustered won’t do me any good.

I can’t let them get to me.

Anyway… Yeah. Let’s not think about that right now.

“Phew… well, moving on to the next one.”

As I say that, I lower the image of Kainoh Izumi in the blonde gyaru outfit.

Now, up next.

-Oh!

-What is that…?

“Isn’t this super cool?!!! It’s really well-done, hey!!!”

It was Mecha Kainoh Izumi.

-Please stop throwing out potential legendary statements.

-It really does look awesome.

-Now that I think about it, Mei likes this kind of stuff a lot.

In her hands were shining silver knuckles, and she wore blue sunglasses.

Her silly hair had turned into a golden antenna, and a core-like sphere glowing in gold was visible on her chest while a flashy cape fluttered behind her.

“This supportive player who drew this definitely knows what a dream is!!!”

I declared with complete sincerity.

Especially this cape; I simply loved it.

I’m sure this Mecha Kainoh Izumi would be referred to as ‘Big Sis’ by everyone around her…

“Do you think I’ll ever get an outfit like this… someday?”

-Let’s ask Toka Mama for it!

-Are you totally in love?

-Coming from above!!!

-Is the final move self-destruct?

“I guess asking Toka Mama isn’t such a bad idea?!”

-So excited, haha!

-Do you really love robots that much?

-You’re a child who understands a man’s dreams!

Well then, after the broadcast ends, I’ll reach out to Aunt Shia!

Before I knew it, 40 minutes had passed since the broadcast started.

That means it’s almost time to reveal the new outfit.

“Phew… then let’s begin the outfit reveal party…?!”

-Let’s go swiftly!

Thump thump

-It’s finally here!

With my proclamation, my supportive players cheer with joy.

But my mood is all over the place…

But I guess since I’ve come this far, I can’t avoid it now.

“Alright, I’ll change, so wait for me….”

As I say that, I switched the screen to the thumbnail for today’s broadcast for a moment.

“Phew….”

Taking a deep breath, I sync the outfit with the screen.

Of course, there’s nothing visible on the broadcast screen yet.

But right in my eyes, I could see it perfectly.

Thump thump

-Please show us quickly!

-I’m getting nervous!

-Is there a correct answer in what’s come out?

-I’m excited!

“Well then! Since I’m all set… let the reveal party begin…!”

-I waited a million years!

-From above maybe?

-It’s definitely going to be cute.

I lowered the thumbnail and returned to the original broadcast screen.

But of course, my avatar wasn’t standing there.

I had hidden it away to reveal slowly.

“Shall we start from the legs…?!”

-It’s coming!

-I feel like I’m going to collapse from cuteness.

I slowly lowered my avatar so that its legs would appear on the broadcast screen.

And what appeared was…

-Black stockings?!

-But why are there no shoes?

-That’s the world’s treasure!

…Oh no! I’m starting to feel embarrassed already.

I have to show this avatar to more than 30,000 people.

Of course, it’s not like I’m showing my actual body, but… Kainoh Izumi is another version of me.

I hate you, Aunt Shia…

“I-I’ll continue…!”

I said that and lowered my avatar again.

Then, what was visible, was a garter belt.

But not on both sides; it was only on the left stocking… and it had a heart-shaped accessory hanging from it.

And the clothing that began to subtly show was a white shirt.

The shirt’s sleeves were exaggeratedly long, hiding my hands completely.

-What?

-What is this?

It seemed like the supportive players also felt some confusion for a moment there.

If it were up to me, I’d want to stop here and turn the broadcast off, but I can’t quit now…

“W-What’s with only having the garter belt and long shirt sleeve on the left… I-I think Toka Mama has too niche of a preference…”

-So good!

-Perfect new outfit!

-The part where my hands totally can’t be seen is the best!

-Just the legs alone make it perfect.

Of course, most of the supportive players were crazy about it.

Well, it’s only logical since the very act of watching a VTuber is a niche preference…

“W-Well then, next…”

-👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

-What comes next?

“I can already feel the risqué vibes from this…”

Next up was… dolphin shorts and slightly longer black hair than my original avatar.

And of course, my belly button.

-Huh?

-What’s this?!

-I think I’ve reached my limit…

It seemed like the buttons of the shirt weren’t done properly, so in the gap, my avatar’s belly button was obviously exposed.

[Nothing can replace the belly button of a cute girl… Mina.]

Aunt Shia’s words from our last phone call popped into my head.

Honestly, I agree, but still… isn’t this outfit a bit inappropriate for a daughter?

“I-I mean, doesn’t everyone think this is insane? Toka Mama’s style… what does she want to dress her daughter in…?”

-I love you!

-Since it’s cute, it’s okay!

-Toka Mama is the best Mama!

Looks like there’s no one here on my side.

I already knew that, but it’s still shocking…

“Now, let’s move on to the top…”

-That YouTube guy is going to get angry.

-Is this okay?!

I don’t know. Since Star’s Flow said it was fine, it must be okay.

It’s only my mental state that isn’t.

With that, I somewhat hurry through the chat and lower my avatar again.

This time, what was revealed was the top.

“Y-This isn’t acceptable!!!”

And that was enough to raise my voice.

-💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

-👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

-It’s a risqué outfit!!!

-It’s even dirtier than the gyaru outfit from before!

Some slightly silhouetted bangs were dyed with two strands of white.

But that wasn’t the main point.

For some reason, only one of the buttons on the shirt was done up, and that button looked ready to burst at any moment.

On top of that, the front wasn’t completely closed, showing the black underwear slightly, and a choker and a teardrop-shaped necklace swayed around my neck.

Just like in the chat, this was a way more risqué outfit than the first gyaru Izumi outfit I had seen.

I wonder if that YouTube guy will get angry…?

Well, I don’t know… since I’ve come this far, I can’t turn back now.

“Eh… then I’ll just go on to the hair next…”

-After getting mad, her voice has completely broken.

-It’s too sexy for a high school girl!

-Is she the daughter who’s been betrayed by her mama…?

What appeared next was the same crimson eyes as before.

Standing tall was the silly hair and a different red strand among the two white ones.

That was the end of the outfit reveal.

-What are you feeling right now?

In response to the question appearing on the chatroom screen.

“I’m embarrassed….”

I answered honestly.

Mom may not know, but my older sister… is definitely watching this broadcast right now.
