[Project Participation] The story of how I was recruited into a suspicious cult called "Tarawo Girls" | Conclusion: It wasn't suspicious lol (it's not even a cult to begin with)
A few days ago, I was recruited into a really suspicious-sounding cult.
At first, it was just talk about "a great project being held!", but in the end, they ignored the project and started hard-selling the Tarawo Girls to me. For the record,
it wasn't a cult. Tarawo Girls is the name of a membership.
However, after being proselytized about Tarawo Girls, I...

What a suspicious group...!
Whether I held my head in my hands or not, I'll leave that to your imagination.
But it's not fair to dismiss it without looking, so I checked the details of the membership, and...
Despite the name "Girls," men are also welcome to join
A membership created at the request of fans
100 yen per month
The exclusive articles are so useful that I'm worried if 100 yen a month is enough
First month free
There were so many things to question that my head was filled with question marks again.
This is the first time I've seen a membership that isn't based on the premise of making money, you know?
So.
The operator of that membership, Hitotarawo-san, is currently holding a project where they give tips to those who write introductory articles.
(A project to give tips is also a bit of a mystery in itself. Does such a thing exist?)
But!
The deadline for participation is April 26th!
That means today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to write the article, post it, and leave a "I participated" comment on Hitotarawo-san's relevant article by the end of the day.
Huh? You thought that would be a piece of cake? Well, sure, I guess it's a piece of cake for you. How impressive.
But you see, I am a person who is terrible at writing introductory articles.
On top of that, I am incredibly slow at reading text!
It takes me 10 years to read through a text, chew it up and digest it in my brain, convert it into words I can understand, and output it. The child I gave birth to would have already advanced to the 4th grade of elementary school. Other people's children and okra grow up fast! (© Hakata Hanamaru Daikichi)
So, there's no way I'll make it in time.
Moreover, Hitotarawo-san has already posted a huge number of articles.
I have to complete the task of choosing which article to introduce from among them.
This is a super difficult problem that would take me 20 years. The child I gave birth to would be old enough to drink alcohol. Here's looking at you, kid!
Ah, there's no way I'll make it in time...

Just as I was about to give up on participating in the project, I found a god among the Tarao Girls.
"Use this template. Just copy it, paste it into your post, and you'll have a completed article that meets the participation requirements," they said, distributing the template.
The unity of the Tarao Girls is insane...Is it a cult after all?
So, I will be sending this using the template below.
Pardon me for using Han-Tana's template ('∀`)ノ‼️
I have followed you.
⇒ Is this your self-introduction?
⇒ I am writing this article after looking at this one.
⇒ I learned from Han-Tana's article that you were struggling with the project.
⇒ The articles by the girls in the Tarao Girls Collection Magazine are also amazing.
The intention of giving people who have never received a tip on note or sold a paid article a 0⇒1 experience is noble.
I look forward to working with you ('∀`)ノ
“This is a project participation article”
“This article is a promotional article”
“I may receive a tip upon meeting the conditions”
That was, in its entirety, a copy-paste of the template created by Hank Shuntana.
I borrowed the template from this note.
Han-Tana said in their note, "I'd be sad if you didn't use the template." And I was racking my brain trying to create a project participation article.
Well then, I'll use it. I used it! Lol.
There's nothing more win-win than this, right? Right?
Also, the culprit missionary who proselytized the Tarao Girls to me is Maruyoka-san. It was an incredibly passionate recruitment. I was afraid they were going to sell me an expensive vase (that's a lie). But after reading Hitotarao-san's note, I understood. Maruyoka-san, you were the president of the Tarao Girls, weren't you?
I mean, what is a membership chairman...?
The person running the membership is Hito-Tarao-san, right?????
I don't get it lol
Tarao Girls, a mystery that only deepens—why don't you try taking a peek for yourself?
Speaking of mysteries, Hito-Tarao-san says they aren't trying to make money on this note. The membership, Tarao Girls, is designed exactly as those words imply.
But even so, they say they are earning over 100,000 yen a month on this note.
Quoted from this article.
Even this Hito-Tarao has made just under 140,000 yen in December 2025, and over 240,000 yen in January 2026.
By the way, this note contained what I think is the easiest and most reproducible method among the membership articles.
Since it's a paid note, I can't write anything detailed about it.
I was convinced, thinking, "So that method really is effective!"
So, this ended up being content where it's unclear why I even copy-pasted the template.
I should have just used the template, right lol
