So, according to Raden, her over-the-top debut stream was a reference to a rakugo story, Umanosu.Discussion (

The story goes like this. A man(A) was fishing by the river, when suddenly the string on his rod broke. A tried to solve the problem by pulling some hair from a tail of a horse nearby. The man's friend(B) witnessed that and said to him,"Oh no, you pulled some hair from a horse tail. Now something terrible will happen."
A tried to get B to tell him what will happened, but B want some booze from A before he can tell the story. So A took B to his house and gave him booze, trying to make him talk. But B kept switching the topic of conversation every time when they are almost getting to the point, and kept drinking and eating during the talk.
Finally, after having all the booze and snacks A had in his house, B finally tells A the rest of the story. B:"Alright, I'll tell you what will happen if you pull some hair out of a horse tail. If you pull out some horse tail hair...The horse will..."
A:"The horse will..."
B:"The horse will get hurt."
Raden's debut stream started with two women talking about what will happen if you see the face under Raden's mask. But throughout the stream, Raden kept talking and drinking and never showed her face, and in the end no one knows what will happen if we see her face, let alone knowing anything important about her.
It was a bold move to use your debut as a reference to a story, since she DID get scolded after that.
Edit: Although the "keep talking and nothing is revealed" part was planned, apparently her avatar being so small and the background with nothing but white was completely due to accident.
