Shuna cut a Friday karaoke stream short because of a stomachache, then used the last minutes to announce that she will play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the first time on Sunday.

The stream was billed as an all-genre karaoke session that welcomed first-time viewers. Shuna opened by saying she planned to sing across genres, and thanked viewers for taking her channel past 47,000 subscribers and for 100,000 plays of Cherry. Three paid messages came in, one of them congratulating her on the subscriber count.

“Watch over me the way you would watch a child take their first steps.” — Shuna, on how she wants viewers to follow the Zelda stream

Songs filled most of the evening. Around the 48-minute mark Shuna said her stomach hurt and that the stream might end soon. Shortly before the hour she told viewers she would sing one more song, apologizing that the night was running short. Chat answered with messages wishing her a quick recovery.

After the final song she turned to Zelda. Shuna said she had never played Ocarina of Time and that action games are a weak point: in Breath of the Wild she defeated all four Divine Beasts but gave up before the final castle after being killed repeatedly by the ancient machines there. She said she is good at puzzles, and that people around her had told her the game is a must-play.

She asked viewers not to turn into backseat gamers, saying the stream would be one that only she enjoys and that she hoped they would watch over her the way one watches a child’s first steps. She ended the stream with a promise to see everyone Sunday.
