I found an amazing edit of the Setsubun Special on a video site. It was super emotional.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
You mean the one with the erotic fantasy subtitles? You thought that was emotional? I thought it was kind of meh.

“Mogu mogu me more♡ I wanna be sushi roll too♡”
↑ It definitely needs one more twist, right?
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>437 It’s a different one. It showed his back in an apron as he stood at the counter. Zoom-ins and slow-mo shots of his hands, wrists, and upper arms while he cooked.. They really highlighted those parts.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Gonna go check that out.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Now I’m curious. Off I go, bravely.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>439 The way he rolled up his sleeves was unbearably cool. The blue veins standing out on his arms… It made my heart skip a beat.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
So at first, they intentionally had him wear long sleeves to hide them, then had him roll them up himself.. It was all staged so his divine arms would be revealed in the grand entrance. Really well thought-out.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Ugh, now I have to go watch it.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
I’m only halfway through, but yeah, it really was emotional. That ten-second still shot of his back in extreme close-up made me want to hug the screen.
-
- Pudding Who Actually Hugged Him
>>445 I totally get it. And the subtle V-shape of his back? That really hits the spot.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
He’s so calculated. He’s always in the top 10 of hottest male cosplay rankings. Of course—he’s a white shirt barista after all.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Why cotton pants though? If he’d worn tight leather pants, I could’ve rubbed my cheek on that pudding butt.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>448 He’s on a cooking show. The administrative guidance warnings Though… maybe if he were a musician, they might slide?
-
- Pudding Who Loves Hands
Even though he’s a guy, his hands were insanely beautiful. So much larger than mine / long, slightly bony fingers / the veins and tendons on the backs of his hands / the wrist bones— Every part was just dangerously divine.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
It’s a shame he wasn’t wearing a wristwatch. Rolling up his sleeve and tilting his arm to check a big watch… That kind of gesture from a guy is simply irresistible.
-
- Pudding Who Daydreams
So relatable. Just once before I die, I want to see him wrap his arm around the passenger seat headrest while backing up the car. Of course, I’m the one in the passenger seat. A muscular arm blocks my view. The space between us shrinks. Our eyes meet for a second— Kyaaa!
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>452 Hoping for that is basically wishing for the star. There are backup cameras, and men aren’t even allowed to drive anymore, remember?
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>452 I totally get that fantasy though. Like, just pull me into your arms and hug me tight already!
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>450 I want him to pat my head with those hands. I just know I’d feel so happy to be stroked by those hands.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
I don’t know why, but his hands—just hands—were so soothing. I could look at them forever.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
You don’t usually see men’s hands up close, so when you do, it feels kind of refreshing, huh?
-
- Anonymous Pudding
I’ve had a revelation. I’m going to snuggle up to his hand and fall asleep like this.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
I get the appeal of muscles. But why do veins and tendons seem so sexy? Is it some kind of biological thing?
-
- Pudding Who Melts
Pudding-kun’s hands had beautiful nail shapes, and his fingers were long and supple. Not a single hangnail in sight.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Even his hands are handsome.
-
- Tanned Pudding
Personally, I love the hands of guys with tanned, sun-kissed skin. Just seeing them makes my heart race.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
>>462 Where can I see that kind of thing?
-
- Tanned Pudding
>>463 The beach.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Wait—are we talking about fishermen now?
-
- Tanned Pudding
Surfers. Fishermen usually wear rubber gloves and full waterproof gear, so there’s not much skin exposure.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
But surfers usually wear full wetsuits too, don’t they?
-
- Tanned Pudding
Their hands from the wrists down are totally visible. And what’s under that suit is tight as can be.
-
- Anonymous Pudding
Alright then. Maybe a little drive wouldn’t hurt once in a while…

Start by learning how to surf. You won’t get anywhere near them otherwise.

Figures. Life’s never that easy, huh?

Tanned yet supple hands. Tanned yet rugged hands. I don’t care which—just let me have any of them!

Chapter 161: Operation Suit Magic Part 1
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
“What does ‘costume collaboration’ mean?”
“It’s when clothing manufacturers, boutiques, or specialty apparel stores lend or provide their products to celebrities for promotional purposes.”
Just as I was starting to think that I needed to go shopping for a suit for the entrance ceremony, I got a call from Jun-san at my agency.
“They apparently heard that Yuusei-kun is starting university this year and insisted on it. And they’re being really generous about it—not just lending, but giving you a full set: suit, coat, innerwear, accessories, shoes, the whole package.”
It seemed that a well-known fashion brand had made the offer, and they were going to pick out a stylish suit from their product line that would suit me.
“This isn’t related to EXA work, is it?”
“No, it’s not. But the brand, originally known for leather goods, has expanded into apparel and is doing really well right now. I thought it sounded like a good opportunity, so even if you’re going to decline, I figured we should at least hear them out first.”
“Um, what exactly is an ‘accessible luxury brand’?”
Embarrassingly enough, I was all about food and had absolutely no knowledge of fashion. They say not asking is a lifetime of shame, so I decided to go ahead and ask.
“If you translate it literally, it means ‘a luxurious brand at an affordable price.’ They cut costs with overseas production and offer lower prices than high-end luxury brands. Basically, they’re high-end brands with a premium feel aimed at young, trend-conscious consumers. This is their apparel line.”
A high-end brand aimed at young people. And I’m going to wear it?
“What’s the benefit for the brand?”
“This isn’t like a typical commercial gig, so there won’t be big advertising campaigns. They’ll promote it more subtly—like mentioning on their website or blog that so-and-so is wearing their product, or posting notices in-store. That’s the kind of ad effect they’re aiming for.”
“I see. Now that you mention it, I think I saw something like that in a store when I was shopping with my little sister.”
“They’ll respect your preferences, Yuusei-kun. There won’t be a fashion shoot, and they won’t use your image unless you agree to it. Later, they might approach you to be a commercial actor or brand ambassador, but if you’re not comfortable with it, of course you can say no. So, what do you think? Do you want to give it a try?”
A job that’s not related to EXA…
Personally, I wanted to prioritize my studies and private life, so I didn’t want to spread myself too thin with work. A full suit set was tempting, but maybe I should turn it down?
《Pon, pon, pon, po~n! Sub Quest: “Operation Suit Magic”!!》
Hey, diary! What the hell? You pop up out of nowhere and now you’re piggybacking with another random quest?
《Captivate the ladies with a dashing suit look! Boost your social influence and aim to become an influencer!》
An influencer? I thought my role was to promote pudding?
《This is the groundwork for that. The goal is to build your ability to spread and communicate information so you can powerfully influence consumer buying behavior.》
Buying behavior? What’s that?
《When consumers decide to buy something, the process starts with becoming aware of a product, then developing interest or curiosity, followed by the emotional desire to have it, and finally making the purchase. I’ve simplified it a lot, but that’s the general flow of consumer buying behavior.》
You buy something because you want it. That emotional desire before need, huh. I guess that makes sense.
《In the process of buying, people also compare similar products. The goal is to stimulate consumer interest and influence their decision-making. If we can do that, more people will start choosing pudding.》
Would that really work? Even if you compare puddings, that doesn’t necessarily mean people will eat more pudding. In other words, you’d have to get them to switch from other sweets or food to pudding.
《Exactly why we need to boost your charisma even more. To make up for a lack of persuasive power, we’ll overwhelm them with pure charisma. The goal is to target purchases based on fan psychology.》
Fan… Psychology? I’ve been on TV and in magazines a little, but I feel like my name recognition is barely above any average guy.
《That unintentional modesty of yours can actually work to your advantage. In influencer marketing, the strength lies in regular people—like you—introducing products from a consumer’s point of view. It’s like word-of-mouth promotion to your followers.》
Followers? So you mean I have to post on social media? I’m really bad at that kind of thing.
《Social media is diverse now. I recommend a style where you post snapshots of small moments from your daily life.》
Would there really be any demand for that?
《[Even a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Let’s start by building a follower base. Eventually, it’d be great if you could reach a wide audience and spread your message to countless users.》
“Yuusei-kun? You don’t have to overthink it. I’m not trying to push this on you, and if you don’t want to do it, I’ll turn it down.”
Since I’d been quiet for a while, Jun-san probably thought I was mulling it over.
“No… It sounds like they’re being really considerate, so I think I’m okay with accepting.”
“Really? That’s great, then. I’m glad we talked about it. I’ll come with you in a supervisory role, and I promise I won’t let them make you do anything against your will.”
“I’m glad to hear that. I’ll be in your care on that day then.”
《Po~n! Sub Quest: “Operation Suit Magic” has begun!》
See, this is what I mean. You always sneak in at the most convenient times. Too slick for your own good.
