>>45796532Alright hopefully this can summarize the entire thing.
The tweet that got attention is this one -
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638333072579104768> これ玉投げる人、強い人が立った時に頭か身体に投げちゃえば出場停止にできるんじゃないの?Best translation is -
> When a strong player come to bat, can't the dude throwing the ball, like, throw it to his head or body, and get them to stop playing ~ ?You can see the slight implication at the end with "get them to stop playing", where if you see it you see it for the first time you might think "is this bitch talking about killing the batter by throwing the ball at his head? the fuck?".
So, immediately that's a bit of a faux pas, which is what most of the baseballfags caught on to. It's also why there were a lot of "don't say that, even as a joke" type of tweets.
First bit of damage control -
> the translation is wrong, she was talking about the PITCHER getting suspended, it was a legit questionThat MAY have worked, but
> 出場停止にできるんじゃないの?"dekiru", implies "getting something done", in this case, getting the strong player to stop playing.
If she meant to talk about the pitcher getting suspended, she would have used -
> 出場停止にならないの?"naru", i.e. "become suspended".
You can see she was trying to use vague terms to avoid backlash throughout the entire thing (pic rel), but she really messed up with this one, which is why it caught fire.
No worries, shift narrative -
> she doesn't know shit about baseball, she's was just a newbie asking questionsOh wait :
https://twitter.com/qRVN63mw1cRwPF5/status/1638776054717485056That's her making an oldfag baseball reference while playing the game, so yeah. She knew what she was doing.
Okay, so next narrative shift is -
> she didn't ACTUALLY say she was new at the game, she was just pretending for her audience, antis are just grouping that in just to attack herWrong -
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638324390873153536> 野球プニキしか知らんのだけど来た球全部打たないんだね"I only know a little bit of baseball but you don't hit all the balls huh ~"
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638331903190372352> リスナーが9ターン制のゲームだって教えた事を天才なので覚えています"I remembered my listeners telling me it was a 9-turn game, I'm such a genius ~"
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638327211517415424> こんな小さなバットで当てててすごいな!あも腕がムキムキしてる人が多くてすごいな"Hitting with such a small bat is amazing! Ah, also it's amazing how so many people have muscular arms ~"
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638342867826651136> ストライクって何?でも場所は定位置が定位置じゃないのがわかった!ありがとう!"What is a "Strike"? But anyway I found out that the fixed position is not the fixed position~! Thank you~!"
https://twitter.com/g9v9g_mirei/status/1638329727307112449> 全然わからんけど野球おもしろい :smileyface: "I don't understand it at all, but baseball sure is fun :smileyface: ~"
The sheer amount of condescension and sarcasm dripping from her tweets can't fully be translated to non Japanese speakers.
Suffice to say, imagine some valley girl being an utter passive aggressive bitch about something, and imagine having to translate that to a non English speaker.
They wouldn't see anything wrong because they wouldn't understand the tone or the way that she says it. The literal sentences don't look so bad, but the context in which they are said is what makes it bad.
Same case here.
In addition to all this -
> Nijisanji has sponsorships with not just baseball video games, but actual Japanese Baseball leagues as well (Central League).> A Korean guy once implied that they might try this strategy with a star player of Japan and got absolutely dunked on for it, this is a repeat of thatAll of that combined with how much the tweet spread, I don't think Anycolor had any choice other than to suspend her. But considering the wording of the tweet -
> this is not the first time this talent has made such remarksit tells me that they may have just been waiting for something like this to happen to dunk on her.
I would say this was a long time coming, especially with all her assorted yabs (taking shots at holofans, lying about her vacation, and all sorts of other stuff that never left her stream) and getting away scot free from all of them.
It's just funny that fucking baseball was the thing that did her in.
And now that people are paying attention, there might be a lot more dirt coming out from her.
I wouldn't be surprised if this ended up in a termination similar to Zaion. Except the reasons this time are actually legit, and no one else in the company has ever talked as much shit as Gundou has.
