Shishido Akari Counts One Cheating Item on a Trending Judgment Sheet

NIJISANJI — Nijisanji’s Shishido Akari of 1oIdios went through a trending “infidelity judgment sheet” on Saturday and, by her own count, marked only one item as cheating. The sheet lists situations involving a partner’s opposite-sex friends, and she imagined herself as the girlfriend in each. The stream ran about three and a half hours.

She said at the outset that the sheet was hard to answer, because a person’s honest reaction and the self they want to be can differ. Her refrain was that most scenarios were fine as long as there were no shady feelings behind them; once something felt even slightly shady, she said, it was not acceptable. She was lenient on lunch with an old friend or drinks with a coworker, and she called driving a friend home after a missed last train kind. A gift to a friend was fine at up to about 2,000 yen, such as a coffee-shop gift card, but a pricey perfume was not. Matching accessories or keychains bothered her, while character goods or the same keyboard did not.

“If it gets even a little bit shady, I feel like that’s not good.” — Shishido Akari, on friendships with the opposite sex

She was less forgiving about an ex. Staying on an ex’s social media or keeping their photos was not cheating, she said, but she could not accept it, because it was an unnecessary spark for trouble. A practical item such as a wallet from an ex was acceptable if nobody could tell where it came from. On the scenario of a boyfriend rushing to meet a friend who says she cannot see him, she wanted him to ask the reason first.

When she totaled the sheet, one item stood out: texting an opposite-sex friend every day. She softened it at once, saying messages to gather a party for a game would be fine and that it depends on content. She said her own line for cheating is feelings shifting or holding hands, and that she read the daily messages as a sign of shifting feelings. The other items she disliked but did not count as cheating.

Viewers sent 27 Super Chats, many saying they had long wanted to see her take on the sheet. She closed by saying she would be back with League of Legends practice streams.
