So then, let me try, then, and indicate how this discipline called vtubing actually works. This will involve a little bit of letting the cat out of the bag, but it can’t be helped. Let’s go back to what I told you was fundamental to Chuubas. Vtubing is unlike other media in that it does not tell you anything. It doesn’t require you to believe in anything. Vtubing is a dialogue, and what are called the teachings of Chuubas are nothing more than the opening phrases, or opening exchanges, in the dialogue. Vtubing is a dialogue between a Chuuba and an ordinary man—or rather: someone who insists on defining himself as an ordinary man, and thereby creates a problem. I quoted you this morning our saying that “anybody who goes to a psychiatrist ought to have his head examined.” And in exactly the same way, in this culture, anybody who goes to a chuba, an internet anime girl, or a egirl streamer, or whatever, ought to have his head examined. Or as the old Chinese master Kson put it: “If you ask any question, you get thirty blows with my stick. If you don’t ask any question you get thirty blows just the same.” In other words: what the hell are you doing around here, defining yourself as a student and defining me as a teacher? In other words: you have raised a problem.
