Viral Hit episode 3, which will be released on Thursday, April 25, at 12:55 am JST, is expected to continue the story of Yoo Ho-bin, a young man who is struggling with life, trying to pay for his mother's ongoing cancer treatment while also being constantly bullied by his classmates.
The first two episodes show how Yoo Ho-bin's career as a streamer has changed in recent weeks as he starts to make some money off of it while also dealing with certain obstacles. The second episode also showed more fights and the toll that is taking on him, although he is bound to continue because he needs the money for his mother's treatment.
Viral Hit episode 3 is likely to expand on this situation and introduce new characters to advance the story.

Viral Hit episode 3 releases next week
Viral Hit episode 3 will be released on Thursday, April 25, at 12:55 am JST, as per Crunchyroll. Here is a list of release dates and times for fans in different time zones:
Where to watch Viral Hit episode 3?
Fans in Japan interested in following Yoo and his adventures on his NewTuber channel can watch the series on Fuji TV, one of the most prominent anime platforms in the country.
For international viewers, the episode can be streamed on Crunchyroll, although a subscription is required for access.
Recap of the previous episode
The latest episode focused heavily on Yoo and Snapper adapting to the way they are going to make videos, and the former's endurance when it comes to fighting. As per Snapper, NewTubu accounts make money based on ads of adequate length, which is why Yoo will have to last at least three minutes in his fights so they can make a profit.
There is one major plot point in the episode where Yoo finds a small channel that explains how to win fights, which proves to be very useful for him. Furthermore, the episode also shows how his newfound success allows him to quit his part-time job and even get the phone number of the girl he likes.
However, not everything is sunshine and rainbows for the protagonist as he also has to deal with the downside of having online success, which is the introduction of people who want to work with him.
While this seems like a good idea on paper, it ends up with some individuals trying to con Yoo and rob him while pretending to be his fans, with the episode ending with the protagonist declaring that the next Viral Hit video is going to be about him getting his phone back.
What to expect from Viral Hit episode 3?
Viral Hit episode 3 will likely focus on the next stage of Yoo's live as NewTubers. It is also highly probable that the episode will feature new characters who will fight, as well as other people who will be involved in the story as it progresses, and it has also been teased that the protagonist is going to try getting his phone back.
