Meme Research Lab

The chat window flipped upside down the moment the vote ended in a landslide victory for the NongNong Faction.

Among them were the MyungBung fans spinning conspiracy theories about how it was all rigged with alternate accounts.

“Ahem! No weird conspiracy theories allowed! Just accept the results like real men~ Weren’t you all Bread Knights? Let’s not be sore losers, okay?”

“Nooooo~ Stop with the Gald Cup already! How long are you gonna keep doing that? Aren’t you sick of it?”

“...Don’t go into the gallery? Hey you son of a bitch. What the hell are you planning now… Puhuhuhu.”

I was completely, utterly, totally stunned.

Hey, hey, that’s enough. Why are you trying to vent your anger on the gallery? Fuck, I’m the one who has to delete all that shit.

Anyway, these guys clearly had no intention of quietly accepting the results.

Even now, after seeing the chats about terrorizing the gallery, they were still going at it among themselves: ‘As expected, shitpost terrorism is pure BreadPyung lololol’, ‘Yeah~ pretending to be BreadPyung but you’re actually a fucking NongPyung lolol’. My head was spinning.

I couldn’t just sit back and watch this. After all, I’m the owner of this room!

“Everyone, stop stop! I get it! Then I’ll use a method that makes everyone happy!”

I took a deep breath.

With a solemn expression, I continued.

“Later on, instead of just the Nong~ character, I can also make a Bbang~ character, right? Like a grown-up version… Yeah, yeah. That solves everything, doesn’t it? Hehe.”

Also known as using two avatars interchangeably.

Of course, that might be a bit difficult right now. If I made a separate avatar just for Bbang, the production cost would double.

The cheaper option would be to keep the Nong character and just make the breasts bigger?

Would the NongNong Faction scream ‘Kyaaaaaaaack~’ at that? Watching their reaction might actually be pretty fun.

“Looking down on them? ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠How? Puhuhuhu. No~ Even a goblin has to grow. And I just came up with the related story right this second.”

Narration ON. I continued the explanation.

The goblin princess who came from Earth. True to her goblin nature, she was skilled in magic and even knew how to make Pung-yu-hwan.

Then, while streaming, she learned that the women of this world had serious breast complexes…!

“So she’s the first person on Earth to make and sell Pung-yu-hwan. Kind of like a cultural propagation story. Obviously I’ll make a shit-ton of money with Pung-yu-hwan and become rich. Then out of curiosity I try one and my breasts get bigger~ How’s that? How’s that? Doesn’t it hit hard? Hehe.”

“Anyway, there we go~ Now everyone’s happy, right? Let’s stop the Gald Cup. No more. Hehehe.”

Even though there were still complaints left—‘As a member of the NongNong Faction I cannot accept this’, ‘Even if she grows up please make her breasts small..’—the chat was still a chaotic mess. But it had calmed down quite a bit compared to before.

Damn, this crazy bastard BangMyung. Pulling out the Pung-yu-hwan idea here to calm everyone down?

What kind of talent is this? Maybe I was destined to be a VTuber from the moment I was born… Hehe.

That aside.

“Everyone, now that we’ve roughly decided on the avatar, shall we move on to the next thing~?”

“Again with the automatic ‘huh?’ reaction. This bullshit. Just a minute ago you guys were more excited than me. Stunned, stunned, ma.”

These guys are total tsunderes. The moment the prepared content starts, they get more immersed than anyone and enjoy it the most.

They’re just so damn cute.

“Anyway. This is also an extension of the RP. And that is none other than~ memes! Or you could call them catchphrases?”

VTuber memes. You can’t miss these when it comes to VTubers.

In simple terms, they’re catchphrases. Even if you’re not a VTuber, any streamer who’s had even a little success usually has their own signature phrases that follow them everywhere.

This is pretty important. Catchphrases secretly create a sense of belonging. They also boost the entertainment value of the stream… Yeah, yeah.

“So I’ve prepared some memes, and I’d appreciate it if you guys could listen and give me some feedback~”

Ahem.

I cleared my throat lightly and pulled out the notebook where I had written down BangMyung’s meme collection yesterday.

It wasn’t anything grand—just two of them. If I shoved too many down the MyungBung fans’ throats from the start, they’d choke. I had to pace myself.

I read the first sentence of BangMyung’s meme with maximum energy.

“Everyone everyone~ BangMyung~”

“Hmm? Ah, you don’t know? I guess I need to explain.”

I really messed up. Come to think of it, I probably should have given some context first.

“Let me do it again, everyone. Nice to Myung you~ BangMyung~”

The MyungBung fans were still completely lost.

What? Do I need to explain more? Sigh, I guess I have no choice.

“I explained this much and you still don’t get it? Damn… Listen carefully. It’s taking just ‘Myung’ from my nickname ‘BangMyung’ and attaching it! And if you shorten Nice to Myung you, it becomes BangMyung!”

The meme I just said is a pretty common greeting meme among VTubers.

Usually it’s Nice to + nickname. If I take my former oshi Eris as an example, she definitely used ‘Nice to Eri~’ like that.

But I twisted it one more time and shortened Nice to Myung you into BangMyung. For a cuter feel.

No, but I thought they’d catch on immediately. Wasn’t this room full of max-level VTuber fans? Why is the average level so low?

I’m disappointed… Ahem.

“Got it now? Starting today, our room’s standard greeting is this, okay? Shall we all try it together~? BangMyung~!”

“...Disqualified? Hmm.”

Disqualified because it needed an explanation.

That’s pretty sharp. To think ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠there was someone among the MyungBung fans with that level of insight.

Anyway, suddenly BangMyung~ looked incredibly lame. Maybe Nice to Myung you~ would be more intuitive.

“Mmm… I accept that. I’ll take the feedback. I’ll come up with a better greeting meme next time.”

“Aaaah, so now you’re all piling on BangMyung? It’s super cute though… Sigh. Anyway, let’s move on to the next one. This one I’m really confident about.”

I’m seriously confident about this one. To be honest, Nice to Myung you was copying other VTubers, but this one is my own original work.

“This one needs some preparation first… Hmm. Everyone, swear at me a bit.”

“Lawsuit setup my ass… Hehe. It’s really fine. This is a meme you use when you’re feeling down. Just don’t go too overboard with the swearing.”

Even after I said it was okay to swear, the chat stayed quiet except for a few hesitant ‘hmm’ messages as they gauged the situation.

But once one MyungBung fan typed ‘Hey you son of a bitch lololol’, the rest started pouring in one by one.

“......”

I told them to swear, but they really went all out with the double-barrel insults. These guys never listen to a single thing I say, but they sure listen well to this.

And what the hell is GumTits? Are they insane?

Hold it in. Hold it in. I still have something I need to do.

‘Huu……’

I focused my mind for a moment.

Right now I was in a pretty bad mood after getting showered with all sorts of curses from the viewers. It was the perfect timing to use the second meme I had thought of.

The key point of this meme was to say it in the most exhausted, drained voice possible. At the same time, mix in a slightly tearful tone so that listeners would instinctively feel a protective urge.

Kind of like ‘I’m this cute, are you really going to hit me?’

Good.

After organizing my thoughts, I slowly opened my mouth.

“Moehhhh.”

I immediately checked the chat after speaking. It was flooded with nothing but question marks, probably from the confusion.

Heh, it worked. They must be so overwhelmed by how cute it was that they couldn’t think of anything else to say.

Damn, was that too cute just now? These guys look like they’ve completely lost their minds.

If they’re already like this, it’s going to be a problem. I haven’t even used five percent of my full power yet.

What am I supposed to do with this insane talent… Hehehe.

“There you have it~ That was the meme that comes out when BangMyung gets sulky! How was it? Honestly, that one was cute, right? You’re totally falling for it right now~? Hih.”
