hololive Lecture on Cuteness!
Flare-chan!
What's going on?
Wh-What?
Koyori-chan!
What's gotten into you?
She's crying for attention!
Did someone bully you?
Good morniiing!
What's wrong?
Good morning.
Good morning.
We are at the height of summer.
And summer is full of
the most cuuute situations
for girls to shine in,
isn't that right? ★
isn't that right? ★
isn't that right? ★
Well, that's true, you can have
a lot of fun in summer.
Right?
And that is why
I'll teach you all about being
cute this summer.

Her course made me
100 times cuter!!
—Student M
at absolutely no cost!
This feels extremely fishy.
Thanks, but no thanks.
We're good!
SHUT UP!
Quiet! Quiet!
This is a special course that
I only offer during summer,
so don't let this chance slip by now.
She's like a pushy saleswoman.
So much pressure.
It's free, you know?
This course will make you cuter
without a shadow of doubt,
Will it, really?
so let's get started straight away!
Sparkle sparkle sparkle!
That's a bit old-fashioned.
Yeah, you don't see that anymore.
Sparkle sparkle sparkle!
She's still doing it.
Here we are!
Since this is a summer lesson and all,
we changed into our yukatas!
Look how cute you are!
Sparkle sparkle sparkle!
Yukatas!
Fantastic, fantastic!
Let's start by warming up.
This first segment is
about an idol staple:
we'll introduce ourselves
as cutely as we can!
Oh, I see,
introductions are a segment now.
Why that awkward pause?
I feel like there's a line
between us right now.
The border that must never be crossed.
The wall between idols and gorillas.
Not that!
Idols and gorillas.
It's between those who are cute
and those who are far from it.
We're "far from cute"?!
And I want you to join me on this side.
Okay then.
Hey, don't just walk over here!
And no gorilla noises!
This is not a gorilla line.
Gorilla Line
No making gorilla noises.
Well then,
allow me to introduce myself!
Hey! You came, ta!
I'm best known for
my 50 kg gwip strength.
And I'm gonna cwush you... with LOVE!
I'm Amane Kanata a.k.a. Kanatan
from hololive 4th Gen!
Yay yay shparkle shparkle!
Is it me or did you have
a bit of a lisp there?
Oh, heavens!
I'm just so cute when I
mispronounce something.
Apparently that's how
we have to act today.
That is correct.
And now, let's count down to
Flare-chan's cute introduction:
Noon-nui!
I'm Shiranui Flare from hololive 3rd Gen!
Wait, what's going on here?
Nice to meet you!
Can I go home now?
That was a bit off, wasn't it?
Why? It looked exactly like yours.
No, it didn't! Not at all!
But I mirrored your every move.
Exact copy?
There's no way mine looked like that!
That kyan't be.
Koyori-chan...?
Certainly.
Please show her what mine is really like.
Okay!
Let's see Koyori-chan's cute
self-introduction in
Awyo, it's Kowyo!
You sound like a little girl!
It's the bwains of Secwet Society holoX!
I'm Hakui Koyori!
Cute! Cute!
And I'll *** your brains!
Whoa! Whoa!
We'll have to bleep that out now!
We bleeped it out.
But they'd love that! It's cute, isn't it?
That's not cute! It's terrifying!
Time to train that cuteness
with summer situations that
make your heart skip a beat!
Yaaay...
Yaaay...
Yaaay!
So yes.
I'll give you a few summer situations,
and you'll come up with a line that
makes people go "HNNG!"
when they hear it.
You died just now, didn't you?
No, I was expressing a
cuteness overload!
Let's first practice with
the following situation!
Here it is!
Summer Festival
A summer festival!
That's right, a summer festival.
Walk among the crowd,
explore the stalls.
Gaze at the fireworks from
the side, above, or below.
It's one of the most classic summer events
that you just have to master.
And I, the Professor of Cuteness,
will now demonstrate to
you how it's done.
Alley-oop.
"Alley-oop"?!
Isn't that what old ladies say?
That's a cute one.
Flare-chan, can I ask you to
do the countdown?
Sure, here we go.
Get ready for Kanatan's
moment of cute in...
Go.
How do you like my yukata?
Does it suit me?
I chose it just for...
Actually, no.
Forget what I said!
Let's go look at the stalls.
What was that gesture at the end?
That grabbing motion.
That was so embarrassing!
The line itself was cute,
but the way she said it...
I know, right?
"Let's go look!"
See, I reached out through their screen
and grabbed their hand.
Grabbed indeed.
Like a vise.
I crushed... I mean,
took them by the hand.
Is this perhaps a lecture from hell?
Not from hell.
From heaven!
Now come, show me what
heaven looks like!
We're not getting out of this alive...
We have props, too.
OK to use props if desired
Wow, you came prepared.
I brought props, so use those if you like.
Go right ahead when you have an idea.
Then I guess I'll go first.
Oh, senpai!
Flare-chan!
Let's see Flare-chan's performance.
Go ahead, go ahead.
Step right on.
Then here it comes.
Flare-chan's moment of cute in...
Go!
There's so many people here.
I don't want to lose you in the crowd.
Can I...
hold your hand?
Hold on a second.
I sense a bit of plagiarism.
That didn't seem entirely original.
Got that same grip, right?
I mean, it was certainly cute,
but you took a bit too much
inspiration from me.
Koyori, it's all about this.
This here, right?
This move's important.
This here.
Well, I suppose that
you at least paid good attention.
So I'll let it pass.
You will? Okay.
It wasn't bad.
You can do better, right, Koyori-chan?
Can I have a hand fan?
A fan?
I'll get you one right away.
Then here I go!
I can't wait to see it!
Here it comes.
I'm counting down!
Koyori-chan's moment of cute, in...
Go!
Aah, it's so hot.
It always gets so hot in summer, right?
Ah!
Can I borrow your fan?
Thanks!
Hey!
I have a few things to say about that.
What?
That was plain aggressive.
And why the wiggling?
Wiggle wiggle
That looked cute, didn't it?
More like a piece of waving seaweed.
First shake it
and then snatch it.
With a flick of the arm.
That was good, right?
We're not training our arms.
This isn't tennis we're doing. Stop it.
Then I'll do something cute
with a lemonade bottle.
You will?
It doesn't have to be silly.
As long as it's cute.
Yes, don't worry!
I'll act out something that
you couldn't quite do.
What could that be?
Must be something really cute, then.
What's that supposed to mean?
Anyway, moving on.
Koyori-chan's moment of cute coming in...
Go!
You can't open your lemonade bottle?
These ones are pretty hard to open, right?
Let me do it for you.
What the?!
Here you go!
HEY!
Where did you stick that?!
True, Kanatan can't do that one.
I TOTALLY CAN!
I can, I can.
I can do that too, no problem.
I also have the assets for that.
But, you know...
They'd love that, wouldn't they?
I mean, they would.
Please don't try this at home.
See?
I'll give you that.
I got something!
Flare-chan?
I would like some cotton candy.
Oh my, Flare-chan!
We can't be putting on
such a display, right?
Exactly.
I'll show you how it's done.
Show me the way, senpai!
Then here it comes!
Flare-chan's moment of cute, in...
One second.
Get on with it.
Right!
Hey, don't make this...
Left!
Don't make this into a vision test.
Always keep your eyes on me, okay? ♥
Wait, that was a lead-in?
Oh yeah.
That was so cute!
Was that to overcome your shyness?
That took such a turn.
Come on, don't make it silly
just because you're shy.
You could've skipped that first part.
Being bashful would've been cuter.
Exactly.
J-Just let me be.
Actually flustered
What's next?
That cotton candy vision test
was confusing,
but it was still cute.
Really?
I thought you were just
having a laugh at first.
But then you followed up
with that sweet line.
That made me happy.
Poyo poyo poyo~!
All right!
Even the stalls made a run for it.
Right? Scary.
The next situation for
today's lecture is...
this here!
Test of Courage
A test of courage!
Oh no...
That "poyo poyo" was a test already.
That was freaky.
I'm scared...
Feel free to get on the stage
when you have an idea.
You've done it a few times now, so...
We need to see your
example first, don't we?
What about your example?
Sure, then I'll give you one.
Then here goes our professor.
Kanatan's moment of cute, in...
Go!
All right, today it's my turn to surprise
the others in the haunted house.
Here comes one!
Boo! ♥
I'll be with you, even as a ghost.
Okay, moving on.
DON'T JUST MOVE ON!
Hey!
She'll be with us, apparently.
How about a reaction?!
Like she's talking to a new coworker.
That was cute, wasn't it?
Could you not make
haunted houses cute?
Ah, sorry.
Anyway, we're not here to
work in a haunted house.
We're here to do cute work.
I see. Cute work.
I have something!
Koyori-chan!
Will you surprise us?
Yes, I'm ready!
Then let's hear it!
Koyori-chan's moment of cute, in...
Go!
Short skit
of a girl who joined you
on a test of courage
A short skit?
but isn't scared at all.
What now?
We're suddenly getting a skit.
There's a will-o'-the-wisp over there.
And I don't think you can see it,
but there's the ghost of a girl.
Oh, and there's a dead guy
hanging in that tree.
What? You don't see it?
You're scaring me!
Huh?
Enough of that!
No doing skits!
I thought we were making
this light-hearted.
Don't look at us like
we're ghosts too.
That gives me an idea.
Please don't take ideas from her.
Let's forget about that.
I'll be a ghost.
A ghost?
Then let's hear it.
You'll be a ghost?
Wait, a ghost?
No, I'm sure she won't
continue Koyori's thing.
She's our senpai.
Flare-chan's moment of cute coming in...
Go!
Woo...
Eep!
Woo...
Hah!
Woo...
Haaah!
Stop that.
I can't move if
you're looking my way.
No no no, something's not right there.
Was that a B*o?
Was that a B*o impression?
She turned into a B*o.
It was still cute, though.
I mean, it was...
But it also made you want to
point out the reference.
I'm glad you recognized it.
Koyori noticed it first.
Still, this isn't a course for
aspiring comedians.
It's not about doing impressions.
Wait, it's not?!
Oh, it's not?
Don't look at me all surprised!
I'm not a comedian. I'm cute.
But you didn't even
notice that, did you...
Say something.
I thought it'd be best to look away.
Here we are for our next situation!
What is this place?
Savanna
Our lesson continues in
the summer savanna!
Why?
The savanna?!
In the savannaaa!
I'm back in my homeland!
Why are we here?!
Welcome home!
There's nothing cute about
this place at all.
Why are we still wearing yukatas?
You can't have a summer without
a visit to the savanna,
You can't?
and if you manage to look
cute even here,
that'll prove just how skilled you are.
Oh, I see!
This is the land where
I was born, though.
You could even say this is
my natural habitat.
Do you want to go first, then?
Start with Koyori?
Sure, I'll do it.
I'll show you how to be
cute in the savanna.
Then here we go.
Koyori-chan's moment of cute, in...
Go!
Hey.
Look.
What do you think of my nails?
Cute, right?
I sharpened them just for today.
You sharpened them?
Then let's head out together
and go hunting!
No you don't, no you don't.
We don't go hunting in this course.
I'm not sure that counts as cute...
Is that why your yukata is red?
Yes, it's covered in the
blood of my prey.
Yikes!
No, it's not!
You savage...
Well, this is the savanna.
You need to hunt your own food here.
True, you have to eat to survive.
That's really not what this is about...
Then show us how it's
done, Kanata-sensei.
Are you sure you want
me to go all out?
I guess no one can look
cute in a savanna...
except for me.
You okay? You almost tripped there.
You're swaying.
Are you ready? I'm counting down.
Kanataso's moment of cute, in...
Go!
I've sure gotten hungry...
You can gobble me up if you want.
Not that there's any meat on you.
Why would you say that?! Hey!
But you're the one that's hungry.
You don't look very nutritious.
Of course I am!
I've got loads of meat on me.
First "I'm hungry"
and then "you can eat me"?
Yes, which is it?
Are you eating or being eaten?
Sorry, could you not bring the
camera too close to me?
You'll get the channel banned.
Keep some distance.
Careful, careful.
Don't worry, people will think
they're looking at a plank.
I'm not a plank!
Don't call me that.
I guess I'll go next.
Let's hear it from Flare-chan.
What will you do?
I've got this.
Then here we go!
Flare-chan's moment of cute in...
Go!
Spawned in a savanna, huh?
Well, could be worse.
Let's go find a village and
Are you playing Minecraft?
punch a few trees.
First things first.
That's Minecraft!
Oh right, and find water because
it doesn't rain here.
That's all Minecraft!
Don't you go looking for acacia trees.
I feel you're not getting cuter at all.
Even that rhinoceros back
there is cuter than you.
Then I'll do another one!
Outdo the rhino.
I'll outdo the rhino!
I'm a coyote, after all.
Watch this!
Coyote coming through!
Here we go.
Koyori-chan's moment of cute in...
Go!
What? You want to go out with me?
Well, let's see...
If you can beat that rhinoceros...
Actually, no.
If you can beat that gorilla in a fight,
Who're you calling a gorilla?
I won't mind marrying you!
Slim chance.
Not happening.
No, that's not why I stepped forward!
I'm not a gorilla.
I'm not some piece of
savanna decoration.
Stop making fun of me.
Who're you calling a gorilla?
Why aren't you getting any cuter?
Oh, I know, it's because you're
not putting in any effort!
That means you'll have to compensate!
Show us another example.
Sure, I'll do it.
Please brighten the atmosphere.
I will.
And I won't turn it into another joke.
I'll stick out my large chest and
show you how to do this properly.
It's a joke already.
Then here we go.
Kanatan's moment of cute in...
Go!
Welcome to wonderful Japari Park!
And there we go.
Thank you for your demonstration.
You might want go home after that.
Ding dong.
Wait, don't actually leave!
Professor!
Professor!
And that's all for today's lecture.
So, what do you think?
Did you learn what it takes
to be cute this summer?
Well...
I learned about being a gorilla, at least.
Stop dat aldatty.
You're going loopy, Professor,
so I think you should just call it quits.
How could you say that?
That's mean!
I put so much work into this course!
You learned how to be cute, right?
We sure did.
Yes, we certainly, did.
I'm so glad to hear that!
Then everything's fine.
And now, let's close off with shome...
announcements.
Why the tone change?
Flare-chan, Koyori-chan.
Take it away, and make it cute!
