Looks madcap, but it really isn't. P.A. works doin' its thing again. I wonder why they are so fixated on unlikable heroines these last few years? As if in rebellion to the cute girls doing thing shows of the past, Masaki and her new vampire cronies are approaching Konosuba level jerks... well, more flawed, really.

Anyway, the premise of a violent youtuber getting axed from her channel and being traumatized by mean video comments works pretty well as we simply don't see this kind of story very often in Anime- at least non-isekai hero party anime... While I'm a little off put by the cynical nature of optimizing content creation as it seems fairly insulting to the audience by itself (see the youtube fight show last season), I can appreciate the craft involved in making content people want to see.

I'm strangely optimistic about how this will play out now that super powers are off the table- gotta earn them views the old fashioned way!
