Hizuki Yui Opens Monday Morning Chat After Losing Track of the Day, 37 Hours Awake

NEO-PORTE — Hizuki Yui, a singer with Neo-Porte, opened a Monday morning *zatsudan*, or chat stream, with an apology: she had lost track of the day of the week. She said she had been awake since 7 p.m. Saturday and had assumed it was still Sunday until she checked her calendar and found a 7 a.m. entry. Viewers who had already left for work, she said, might have missed the start.

Yui said it was not a case of oversleeping. By her account, she sang overnight, played Valorant in the morning, ran a horse-racing stream and a sponsored stream, then received aim coaching from a friend off stream before playing more games until daylight. She put her time awake at 37 hours at the start and 38 by the end, and said she felt wide awake. She warned that she might sleep a long stretch afterward and go quiet for a day.

The talk then ran through her eyesight, which she said is poor enough that streetlights turn into “self-service illumination” without lenses. She described her middle-school tennis days, when high lobs seemed to appear out of nowhere, and her switch to guitar after leaving the club. She also recalled applying to Neo-Porte after a post happened to appear on her timeline on X, and said she would not expect to pass the audition today.

Later she turned to Yu-Gi-Oh!, which she said she wants to try after watching a comedian’s video about the game, and to arcade memories such as whack-a-crocodile. She took the chance to mention a year-end live on Dec. 29 in which she and some Neo-Porte colleagues will appear. She closed with a rock-paper-scissors send-off and sent viewers off for the week.

Chat opened with greetings and, before long, with urging that she get some rest. Eleven Super Chats came in, several of them wishing her good morning and telling her to sleep.
