Horror-Averse Yuragi Yura Finishes Tsugu no Hi and Calls It a Story of Online Slander

MILLIONPRODUCTION — VTuber Yuragi Yura played through the story game Tsugu no Hi: Ten Maneku Sukui no Ito (つぐのひ-天招ねく救いの糸-) from start to finish on Monday and concluded it was less a horror game than a story about online slander. By the closing credits, which came about 75 minutes into the stream, she said the ending had left her thinking.

Yura, a MillionProduction (NOVA) talent, opened by saying she does not like horror games but had decided to take on a few more in response to requests from viewers. She explained that the game involves walking to the left while the scenery around the character changes from one day to the next, with no chases. She asked viewers to avoid spoilers and hints so her reactions would stay genuine.

“It made me think a little, that game.” — Yuragi Yura, after the credits

In the early chapters she guessed that the schoolgirl at the center of the story had been bullying others, and she called the mocking, phone-wielding figures who confronted the girl on the road awful. As the story turned to a family whose home was exposed online after a false accusation, she changed her reading. She said the work seemed to depict the cruelty of internet pile-ons, where people believe only the accuser and move on to a new target once attention fades. She called the sections showing the mother’s grief and the strings falling from the sky heavy, and she warned viewers before one graphic scene so they could step away.

Chat answered with laughter and exclamations as the scenes changed, and many viewers called the mother protective. Near the end, she said the single kind word a visitor offered to the girl stood out to her. She said she wanted to try other entries in the series and plans to play short games on Monday evenings, and she read four Super Chats. She closed by asking viewers to think before posting, and announced a stream the next day at 9 p.m. unveiling the 2.0 update to her model.
