Someone once told me they used to be a pro-gamer around that time, pre-Twitch, and after some confused prying it turned out that meant they leveled WoW characters and sold them.

Does this come as a surprise to NEET? Was he only made alert to this after the retail worker's reluctant greeting?

Judging from the time period and the words he's using and how he describes the job, and especially how he mentions he's "training", I don't think he means streamer or content creator. It sounds like he maybe means playing in tournaments, though he also doesn't mention tournament prizes or anything, so it's possible the author himself doesn't actually know what pro gamers do.

Schadenfreude is fun sometimes, but hopefully she also has episodes where she's personable or tells people they aren't the father while they do an endzone dance.

I can't believe the author skipped the months of content he could've gotten from NEET putting off phoning, actually doing it, preparing for the interview with Oda, and then the actual interview itself.

Can employers pay minors less in Japan? If so NEET isn't getting that job. She probably hasn't even spent 10 years in prison for murder.
