The thread's moving way too fast!

It can't be helped.

We've burned through like 20 threads just for this morning's stream, right?
40: Anonymous Explorer
Reason for ending the exploration: "Just kind of got tired."
Record: 86th floor.
41: Anonymous Explorer
Wait… seriously?
42: Anonymous Explorer
EX-rank explorers can do anything, huh?
43: Anonymous Explorer
Here's what we learned this time:
– Kamishiro Rion is a beautiful but disappointing person.
– Kamishiro Rion and Kisaragi-kun are like a messy older sister and her long-suffering younger brother.
– Kisaragi-kun can make it rain whenever he feels like it.
– Magic compression is being researched in America.
– The boss of the 75th floor is some kind of weird dragon.
– Explorers can fly (??????)
– Kisaragi-kun can summon gods (?????????)
– The 86th floor is a beach.

Too much information!

It doesn't make any sense.

Even watching the stream left me confused.

– Explorers can fly (??????)
?????????
48: Anonymous Explorer
No, they can't.
49: Anonymous Explorer
But Kamishiro Rion was flying!
50: Anonymous Explorer
Don't try to apply logic to EX-ranks. That's the takeaway from this thread.
51: Anonymous Explorer
True.
52: Anonymous Explorer
What's happening…?
53: Anonymous Explorer
I was at work and missed the stream, but I can tell it was chaotic.
54: Anonymous Explorer
Trust me, even if you watched it, it still didn't make sense.
55: Anonymous Explorer
Here's what viewers learned today:
– Kisaragi-kun is amazing.
– Kamishiro Rion is amazing.
56: Anonymous Explorer
Yeah, that's pretty accurate.
57: Anonymous Explorer
– Kamishiro Rion is an idiot.
– Kisaragi-kun is a little odd.
58: Anonymous Explorer
You'd know Kamishiro Rion is an idiot if you've followed her on social media.
59: Anonymous Explorer
Is she really that bad?
60: Anonymous Explorer
She mostly just posts pictures, though.
61: Anonymous Explorer
So many brain-breaking moments today.
62: Anonymous Explorer
Isn't Asagao-chan just too good for him?
63: Anonymous Explorer
No one in the country is on Asagao's level except for three other people.
64: Anonymous Explorer
So, EX Reiman isn't as ridiculous as I thought?
65: Anonymous Explorer
Even Jinguji Kaede managed to solo the Takayama Dungeon to the bottom.
66: Anonymous Explorer
EX-ranks are just built differently…
67: Anonymous Explorer
Wait, really?
68: Anonymous Explorer
Wasn't she part of a party? I'm confused.
69: Anonymous Explorer
Jinguji Kaede is known as the fastest explorer, right?
70: Anonymous Explorer
But how accurate is that claim?
71: Anonymous Explorer
I'm gonna suggest on social media that they collab with Jinguji Kaede next!
72: Anonymous Explorer
At this point, I want to see all the EX explorers.

The dungeon world is in chaos after today's stream.
74: Anonymous Explorer
No surprise there.
75: Anonymous Explorer
I expected as much.
76: Anonymous Explorer
Dungeon researchers on social media are losing their minds.
77: Anonymous Explorer
Well, it is the deep floors.
78: Anonymous Explorer
It's no wonder people are freaking out after so much new information was revealed at once.

The official Explorer Association account posted an update about the new record set in the Shibuya Dungeon, then immediately followed up with a sigh.
86: Anonymous Explorer
EX-ranks, man…
87: Anonymous Explorer
Maybe we shouldn't let EX-ranks meet each other.
88: Anonymous Explorer
We need to keep them separated and under control.
89: Anonymous Explorer
Can we even control monsters like that?
90: Anonymous Explorer
They can fly, remember?

Just thinking about it makes me laugh.

This whole situation is a mess.
93: Anonymous Explorer
Everything is just chaos now.
94: Anonymous Explorer
The Dungeon boards, the Kamishiro Rion fan forums, the researchers, the Explorer Association, and the dungeon streaming community…
They're all losing their minds.
95: Anonymous Explorer
What have you done, Kisaragi-kun?
96: Anonymous Explorer
This is basically a coup.
97: Anonymous Explorer
It's practically an overthrow of the government.
98: Anonymous Explorer
We might get an official press conference from the government at this rate.
99: Anonymous Explorer
The Dungeon Ministry is definitely going to hold a press conference.
100: Anonymous Explorer
It's been years since we had a new record for the highest floor reached… And the exploration ended because "he got tired."
101: Anonymous Explorer
I feel like I'm losing my mind.
102: Anonymous Explorer
It's always been insane, so don't worry.
103: Anonymous Explorer
How can anyone be calm after this?
104: Anonymous Explorer
The archived stream is blowing up with views.

What are we even supposed to do now?
106: Anonymous Explorer
What's Kisaragi-kun's next stream going to be like?
107: Anonymous Explorer
There's no point in predicting it.
108: Anonymous Explorer
He could probably get a million views just by rolling a pencil.
109: Anonymous Explorer
It's always a mess, and yet I can't stop watching.
110: Anonymous Explorer
Kisaragi-kun just became my favorite streamer.
111: Anonymous Explorer
Does he have a lot of female fans?
112: Anonymous Explorer
Maybe not?
113: Anonymous Explorer
I bet he's got a lot of female explorer fans, though.
114: Anonymous Explorer
Definitely.
115: Anonymous Explorer
Most of his viewers are probably explorers in general.
116: Anonymous Explorer
His audience seems pretty young.
117: Anonymous Explorer
The government should treat Kisaragi-kun with more care.
118: Anonymous Explorer
There's already an anti-thread about Kisaragi-kun.

Lol.
120: Anonymous Explorer
Not surprised.
121: Anonymous Explorer
Once you get an anti-thread, you know you've made it big.
122: Anonymous Explorer
His channel just hit a million subs too.
123: Anonymous Explorer
Wait, seriously?
124: Anonymous Explorer
That's way too fast, lol.
125: Anonymous Explorer
Both the anti-thread and the subs count are exploding, huh?
126: Anonymous Explorer
I'm dying of laughter.
127: Anonymous Explorer
He's an EX explorer, streaming, and now he's got a ton of haters.
128: Anonymous Explorer
The anti-thread is moving fast with angry comments, lol.

It's full of jealous posts, and it's hilarious.
130: Anonymous Explorer

Don't call it jealousy or they'll get mad.
131: Anonymous Explorer
I've seen the hate comments on social media too. He's been getting a lot of flak lately.
132: Anonymous Explorer
It's because he's collabing with Asagao-chan and showing off his absurd strength.
133: Anonymous Explorer
It's like he's one of us, but with insane powers, so people are picking on him.
134: Anonymous Explorer
If he were more serious, maybe he wouldn't get so much hate…
135: Anonymous Explorer
If he were serious, he wouldn't be streaming at all.
136: Anonymous Explorer
The anti-thread people will never beat him, though.
137: Anonymous Explorer
Jealousy is real, huh?
138: Anonymous Explorer
All the wrong types of people are gathering in that anti-thread, lol.

So much happened in just one day.

I bet we'll start seeing a ton of "deep floor analysis" videos soon based on Kisaragi-kun's stream.

Fake analysis videos are always fun.
145: Anonymous Explorer
I love those deep-dive videos.
146: Anonymous Explorer
Do you think Kisaragi-kun will respond to the anti-thread?
147: Anonymous Explorer
He's too busy for that, I bet.

The anti-threaders are just playing by themselves.

Do you think he'll add a donation feature?
155: Anonymous Explorer
There aren't even any ads on his streams.
156: Anonymous Explorer
He should at least enable ads, right?

He's probably already swimming in money, though.

So jealous.

By the way, his next stream is apparently going to be a "Dungeon Basics" class.

That's probably a contract stream for the Association, lol.

What even are "dungeon basics"?

"Almost dying makes you stronger," or something?

Stop with the fake "basics," lol.

He's having such a huge impact on society as an EX-ranked explorer.

Amazing (in the simplest terms).
177: Anonymous Explorer
He's completely changed the way people view dungeon streams.
178: Anonymous Explorer
EX-rank is just on a whole other level, huh (brain malfunctioning).
179: Anonymous Explorer
Maybe upper-floor streams will become more popular now that people are over the deep floors… Nah, probably not.

No chance.

Upper-floor streamers should switch to gaming streams instead.

Someone already quit dungeon streaming because of him, so don't rub it in.

Wait, really? Lol.

How many dungeon streamers has Kisaragi-kun indirectly forced to retire?

He's probably crushed the spirits of a lot of explorers too.

EX Reiman is suddenly the victim of baseless accusations, lol.

At this point, I'm starting to believe EX Reiman is also an EX-rank in the truest sense.

I won't believe it until I see it with my own eyes.

I used to think EX Reiman was just a corporate drone.

Jinguji Kaede and Kamishiro Rion are both monsters, so it's no use.

Is there any way they aren't monsters?
205: Anonymous Explorer
They're definitely scary people.
206: Anonymous Explorer
I fully expect EX Reiman to be just as insane!

At this point, it'd be scarier if they were normal.
208: Anonymous Explorer
They're EX-ranks. Of course they're not normal.
209: Anonymous Explorer
A few weeks ago, I would've denied this, but after seeing Kamishiro Rion and Kisaragi-kun… Yeah, it's obvious now.
210: Anonymous Explorer
I thought they were just slightly above human, but they're full-blown monsters now. Their only human trait is their appearance.
