However, the post of “traffic control” materials on February 22, 2014 made her a topic, and she earned her initial recognition. Ever since, she had been establishing her name with her appearance as a background traffic guard in BB theatres. She was also developed by the illustrations of むしくい{{{2}}}兄貴あにき兄貴aniki—one of her earliest content creators—on Niconico Seiga. ● DIYUSI popularity boomed decisively among the artists as she starred the leading role in Ankounabe(あんこう鍋{{{2}}}兄貴あにき兄貴aniki)’s BB theatre series OFFSide: DIYUSI(09/09/2017-09/22/2018). Based on the independent game OFF by Mortis Ghost, OFFSide starred DIYUSI as the protagonist. According to Ankounabe on Twitter, he chose DIYUSI as the main character mainly due to influences by the art works of Mushikui and Sasagasaka. In the series, DIYUSI appears as a "Security Guard(警備員)" who combats by realising and manipulating the functions of traffic signs. This ability had since been developed further on Seiga, and has now become her standard competence. The boom on Seiga had went back to influence the videos in 2018, and she henceforward became one of the most popular characters of Cookie☆. It was thought that the momentum would wane with the conclusion of OFFSide, but contents featuring the character only continued growing. OFFSide inspired more derivative works, contributing to the DIYUSI boom and development of more stories with netas like NoeDiyu. Her popularity was thus consolidated permanently. ● Meanwhile, while hybrid of the original appearance and secondary creations such as the comedic “Aji-style DIYUSI” materials are posted, many video makers still portrait her as a serious character. It’s hard to determine which version of DIYUSI is more established among the content creators. The development of the character CRN would follow a similar path later. Nowadays, all newcomers on Niconico post her for their first posts. Like Udongein in the original work of the original work, she has been called a “newcomers’ entrance(新参ホイホイ{{{2}}})”. As a character who appeared in the OG Cookie☆, she nevertheless has many fans who have never watched the original voice drama, or even the OFFSide series. This is also partly because of the changes and developments of Cookie☆’s ecosystem itself. ● There are three major styles of the character’s appearance used as materials, alongside other customary ones: the OFFSide-style, New Christmas-style, and Aji-style DIYUSI. The OFFSide-style DIYUSI is used by Ankounabe in the respective BB theatre series, and remains one of her major images to this day. Her New Christmas-style image was created by マス夕一{{{2}}} in 2017. Unlike her other styles, New Christmas DIYUSI has normal skin tone and open eyes. In 2018, あじ{{{2}}} created the Aji-style DIYUSI with more rounded face and generally more comedic behaviour. It has been used in his own theatres and widely used ever since for the character’s BB theatre appearance.
