This whole Pippa cryptid arc has been the best thing to come out of Offkai. In all seriousness, I actually really like the idea of masquerade stuff in general becoming a normalized thing at conventions, it's funny to imagine a bunch of creepy masked Pippas wandering around in a crowd of people, and it would kind of provide cover for chuubas who wanted to go to a convention. One of the things that always comes up with Hololive, for example, is that they can't actually attend a lot of conventions in person anymore.
