[TRANS] Lil Kansai "Ritoru nani shitoru?" Q&A
Lil Kansai officially opened their own Jweb blog "Ritoru Nani Shitoru" (Ritoru* What are you doing?)
Every weekend they open their blogs for fan questions, suggestions, anything really which they answer on their specific day on weekdays!
Ritoru Jweb Schedule:
- Monday: Toa
- Tuesday: Kotachan
- Wednesday: Fuga
- Thursday: Ruku
- Friday: Nishitaku
I'll be focusing on these for the translations because I don't want to bother most of the discord servers I'm in and want to compile everything they answer in one sheet.

A. I'm sorry,,,
Toa has been getting told about this a lot, and I've been trying to do a lot [of fansa],,
I'll try to do it when I see it!!
I won't do high-fives too often, I think it's not good if the people who are away from the stage would get bored, that's why I try to be conscious of that. But I'll
try to make everyone a little bit more happy and give more [fansa]! Thank you!
* Fansa/Fanservice.
