ãWhat is this lineup!?ã
I said as I pointed at the items that came out of the advent calendar. Starting from day one: a bottle cap, a bib, and then a pacifier⦠this is just awful!
ãWhat does Ogu think I am!? Baby stuff!?ã
ãTsk tsk tsk, Iroha! You're wrong about this!ã
ãHow am I wrong about it!?ã
ãWell, sure, it's baby stuff for now, but the target age will go up little by little from here on out.ã
ã???ã
ãDay one is for ages one and under, and day two is for age two and under⦠so the items are meant to be useful up to the number of days! That means the last one should be useful up to age 24!ã
ãSo, on day nine, there would be something for a nine-year-old⦠like a safety buzzer or something?ã
ãOh, sharp guess! Yeah, remember when Anego came over and you fell asleep by yourself? We came up with this idea while talking then. It's genius, isnât it!?ã
ãUgh, it's you again, isn't it, Ah-neee!?ã
ãBut really, isnât it weird? Why doesnât everyone else do this kind of thing?ã
ãHonestly, right!?ã
I have an advent calendar with about a 95% chance of containing stuff I don't need. I think the idea itself is funny, but actually getting it is just a hassle!?
ãI can't use any of thisâ¦ã
ãAnd thatâs exactly why I've got a plan ready for you!ã
ãNo no no!? Sorry, my bad!? Iâm fine with not using any of it! Besides, both Ogu and I are super busy right nowâthereâs no time for such a silly planâ¦ã
ãHuh? But I already reached out to other VTubers, and everyone else besides you already said yes.ã
ãWhat are you doing!? Iâm telling you Iâm absolutely not doing it! Absolutely not! Absolutely no way!ã
I firmly told Angu Ogu noâ¦

"So, today's baby project is here! âGruuu⦠hello, I'm the zombie~!â Itâs Angu Ogu here!"
"Ugh, I'm definitely not a baby! âMay my words reach youâ⦠It's Iroha, the translator girl."
â«Hey, Ogu! (U.S.)
â«Iroharo~
â«No way, Iroha-chan is definitely not a maybe, she's a baby! LOL
I was being forced into participating in this "baby project."
It was happening the very next day. Instant downfall, huh? But what could I do!?
Apparently, it had already been set into my schedule without me knowing, and most importantly⦠Anegasaki was there. "
âHowâs everyone doing~? It's your Onee-chanââ Iâm Anegasaki Monet! I've got a feeling this is going to be a legendary episode!"
"I've got nothing but bad feelings about this!?"
â«Anegoooo, I love you!!!
â«Wasn't this idea by Ogu and Anego?
â«Iroha-chan, good luck LOL
If Ah-neee had a hand in it, there was no escaping it. My fate was sealed. Honestly, I had my suspicions from the moment I saw that advent calendar. And another person whose fate was entangled wasâ¦
"âDobroho-ranko!â Everyone, hello⦠it's Ilyena! I heard I get to see Iroha-sama's baby play, so I came to join! Thank you for having me!"
â«Dobro-ho ranko!
â«I came to get babied by Iroha-mama too
â«Wait, is this the first time the four of you are collabing?
"Yes! Thatâs why I called her! Itâs my first time collabing with Ilysha-chan, Ah-neee~. Of course, we've talked plenty behind the scenes, exchanging secret photos of Iroha-chan and all."
"Thanks for your help back then! Anyway, I'm so happy to collab with my beloved Iroha-sama!"
"Hmph, if it's about Iroha, then I won't lose either!"
"Onee-chan loves Iroha-chan too, you know~?"
â«Secret photos!? Spill the tea!
â«Show us already!
â«This looks like itâs actually an Iroha harem disguised as a baby episode LOL
"I'll take that! Everyone, make sure to promote it with a hashtag, Ah-neee~!"
"Don't adopt such a weird unit name!? Can we please drop this already!?"
"Well, as Iroha's official first wife~"
"No, I am the first wife!"
"What are you even talking about? Itâs obviously me!"
"Stop starting a war over who's the real wife! Letâs get back to the topic! What exactly is this project about?"
"Glad you asked! The content is super simple! Weâll switch between playing baby and mommy roles, and the goal is to decide who makes the best baby!"
"This is a hellish project!"
"So, whoâs going to be the first baby~?"
"Well, it's already decided that Iroha will be the baby, and naturally, Iâm an adult lady, so Iâll be the mommy!"
"So, itâs settled! Iroha-chan and Ogu will be the first babies~! And Iâll be the mommy along with Ilyena-chan, Ah-neee~."
"Why meee!?"
"I-I get to be Iroha-samaâs mama!? YAHOOO! Leave it to me!"
"Somebody help meâ¦"
And thus, the baby project from hell beganâ¦
Our first-ever collab as a group of fourâit felt like a momentous occasion, but is this really the right kind of content for that!?
