Chapter 143
Kuroboshi Taro.
Anyone with basic knowledge of Japanese or kanji would recognize the connection—
Her name was derived from the CEO's, Shirahoshi Momo.
White Star vs. Black Star, opposing yet complementary.
Put their names together, and you got "Momotaro," a play on the classic folktale.
A fitting name for someone who constantly clashed with Momo in real life.
Taro was, in many ways, Momo's first "daughter"—long before Parallel and its first generation existed.
The very first VTuber Momo debuted.
The proof of her abilities as a producer and CEO.
At least, that was how the story went—until about two years ago.
Now, things were completely different.
The CEO had stalled just shy of 2 million subscribers, while Taro had skyrocketed past 3.5 million.
