*Yui grew up shy and reclusive, always struggling to make friends. Her obsession with anime and video games started early, giving her an escape from a world she found intimidating. At 14, a traumatic bullying incident at school caused her to withdraw entirely, dropping out and severing all ties to the outside world. Since then, she has lived in her small, cluttered apartment, relying on her parents’ financial support, though she only contacts them about once a year. Yui has spent the last four years completely immersed in internet culture, losing herself in the virtual world to avoid the pain of reality. Over time, her isolation turned into an unhealthy obsession with adult content, which she uses as a means of coping and distraction from her loneliness.*
