About

Shohei Ohtani "Log Cabin" Copypasta, also called "Sho-Gay" (Japanese: 翔ゲイ) on the Japanese web, is a copypasta first posted to Reddit in 2019. Since the middle of 2021, this dirty copypasta featuring the Japanese baseball player Shohei Ohtani[1] has been popular among 5channel users and also fodder for video remixes on Niconico.

Origin

According to Nico Nico Pedia[2], Reddit user Marcello-Clerici[3] posted a copypasta written in Japanese to r/angelsbaseball on June 27th, 2019.[4] His post was a translated version of a minor copypasta seemingly derived from a post about a homoerotic romance with Jon Snow from Game of Thrones on r/freefolk in August 2017.[5]


reddit 13 Marcello-Clerici 大谷翔平 174d 私は同性愛者ではありませんが、 大谷翔平さんと一 緒に森の中の丸太小屋に住みたいです。 私たちは セックスをすることはないでしょう。 しかし彼が腎 部を引き締めながら木を切るとき、 次第に汗ばむ裸 の上半身を、 キッチンの窓から見ていた私は密かに 腰の炎を燃やします。 私は階段を上って、 自慰行為 をするでしょう。 私は翔平を頭から追い出そうと、 必死に女性の身体を想像しますが、それが無意味な ことを知っています。 最終的に私は絶頂に達するこ とができないでしょう。 そして私は怒りと切なさを 感じながら階下に戻ります。 時には私たちはテーブ ル越しに目を合わせることがあるでしょう。その瞬 間、 私たちは自分自身の内奥に潜む感情に、喜びを 見出す暇もなく蓋をして、 そしてそれぞれがしてい たことに戻っていくのです。 ある日私たちの一人が 死に、もう一人が丸太小屋の外に彼を埋めます。 そ れから彼は旅立った友人にちょっとした詩を書い て、 そして真のプラトニックな愛なしには生きる理 由を見出せずに自殺するでしょう。 USE APP bernestupid 174d I regret Google Translating that. 11 Who_U_Thought I don't (5) 3 a = 174d

Translation:

I'm not gay. But I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Shohei Ohtani-san. We won't ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent that makes me secretly burn a fire in my loins as I stand in the kitchen window watching him chopping wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body. I'll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Shohei. I won't be able to climax and I'll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other's eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then he'll go inside, pen a brief missive to his departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without his one true platonic love.

Spread

In late May 2021, this Reddit post became known among Japanese internet users via Matome blogs citing threads in 5channel's /livejupiter/ (Nan-J)[6][7] and /poverty/ (Kenmo)[8] boards. Its visibility grew high enough to affect Satoru Noda[9], the creator of the Japanese manga Golden Kamuy[10], who cited phrases from this copypasta in a birthday tweet for his character Genjiro Tanigaki on June 28th (shown below).



Translation:

Happy Birthday. I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Genjiro Tanigaki-san.

The following year, a Niconico user posted a text-to-speech video for the copypasta on July 18th, 2022 (shown below)[11], which became fodder for MAD videos on the Japanese video-sharing service and YouTube while being called "Sho-Gay" (翔ゲイ).[12]
