Japan’s Top Game Streamer Weaving Drama in Grim Raiding and Escape Games
The hard-boiled FPS games where Otojya shines.
A voice similar to Metal Gear Solid's Snake, surviving on the battlefield, overcoming challenges, and accomplishing feats, makes the character even more captivating in the game.
In “Call of Duty DMZ,” a game renowned for its highly realistic military motions, sounds, and atmosphere, the modern war drama unfolds almost entirely based on Otojya's own decisions.
The gameplay involves repeated missions of deployment, exploration, and extraction, akin to "Tarkov-like" style games.
Players may encounter formidable enemies or even other players controlled by real people online.
From the immense playtime, I’ve narrowed it down to three episodes particularly acclaimed by viewers as “like a movie,” “film adaptation material,” and “dramatic.”
All the attached videos are time-stamped.
Rather than just highlighting specific moments, they are set at the start of a game session. Enjoy watching the journey until Otojya and his team either clear the session or face game over.
1. First Extraction with Otsuichi
Highlights
- Otojya and Otsuichi’s very first deployment!
- An episode where, despite having no prior DMZ knowledge, viewers cheer on Otojya and his team as they never give up until the end.
Shortly after the release of DMZ, the specifications were quite different from the current version.
For some reason, I occasionally find myself revisiting this episode.
It reminds me how important it is to never give up, giving me a boost of motivation.
DMZ is streamed by many different players, but Otojya and his team create an exciting narrative even from the very first session.
You can truly see how loved they are as streamers.
2. A Sudden Intense Battle with Handicaps
Highlights
- Otojya is tasked with recovering frag grenades, which means he can't use lethal weapons like explosives—a significant handicap during combat.
- His decision-making skills, balancing between offense and retreat for survival and mission objectives, stand out.
- The intensity of the combat escalates, and the more their heart rates rise, the calmer and more veteran-like Otojya and his team appear.
The battle showcases the unique speed and agility of "Call of Duty" that other FPS games might not achieve.
Will Otojya and Otsuichi manage to escape from Al Mazrah safely?
What did you think of this episode?
It masterfully combines bold assaults and strategic retreats, creating scenes that exude skill and elegance.
The occasional bold remarks also add a nice touch to the narrative.
By the way, the next session after this one is also quite an intense battle, so it's highly recommended to watch them consecutively.
3. Weapon Case Retrieval with Anija
Highlights
- This episode marks Anija's debut in the DMZ gameplay, and what an experience it is!
- The first half involves quiet espionage activities, while the latter half shifts gears into an intense mission to assassinate a commander.
- Despite dire circumstances, the teamwork and mutual support between Anija and Otojya shine through.
As Otojya himself has said, the highlight of DMZ is weapon case retrieval.
It often leads to tense situations, but it’s rare to experience something quite as nerve-racking as this.
This might be the result of Otojya and his team’s relentless efforts to achieve their goals.
This episode also features the iconic duo of Anija and Otojya.
4. A Hot-Blooded Otojya
Highlights
- Having successfully pulled off a combination attack with Anija, Otojya becomes increasingly combative.
- A final formidable enemy (plot twist) confronts Otojya, brimming with confidence.
While some of the gimmicks used in this episode are no longer available, the suspenseful and thrilling development still captivates viewers.
Please enjoy watching it.
The highlight of this session was likely the final game of the main stream.
However, if you watch the entire stream from the beginning, you'll understand why Otojya becomes so combative.
With time, Anija—who joined DMZ later—has become more accustomed to the gameplay, and in this session, he covers Otojya extensively.
Streams featuring Anija and Otojya together are fewer in number, but they often lead to dramatic developments.
5. The Fierce Battle in Building 21
Highlights
- Starting in the highest-difficulty map with the bare minimum gear: one armor plate and a small bag.
- Exhibiting sharp combat instincts by pushing forward even when blocked by Molotovs or Thermite grenades.
- Featuring players, reinforcement NPCs, Charlie (a boss), and Berrican (a boss)—everyone makes an appearance!
According to Otojya, this battle consumed the equivalent energy of five matches in Al Mazrah.
He described it as the best combination of teamwork and a thrilling experience he hasn't felt in a while.
This time, I’ve highlighted serious and thrilling scenes, but there are also plenty of spontaneous intense battles and humorous, lighthearted moments.
Be sure to check out other sessions as well and find your favorite episodes.
