the character in the last panel is the protagonist in the pilot episode of the web series "The Amazing Digital Circus" in which characters appear in a colorful digital world from which there is no escape. in the show, the characters appear without their memories, being unable to remember their names or how they got their beyond "putting on a headset" (presumably a vr style headset although this comic just uses headphones)

the joke in this comic is the suggestion that the protagonists job before the show was as a rent-a-girlfriend girl (basically an escort).

I'm honestly not sure why this would be considered funny as it seems unrelated to the show beyond using the character.

Unless the implication is it's a shared universe with the Rent A Girlfriend show?

Or is this one of the characters?

I don't know how popular the specific phrase is in Japan.

Had a hunch and it was right.

Same voice actress between Amazing Circus and Remt a Girlfriend. (Dub)

Yeah I legit wonder if this person even saw Digital Circus, I think this is a reference to some other show or manga or something where a character kind of looks like her.

Protagonist in Amazing Digital Circus, a show that had its pilot released about a week and a half ago. (you can find it on youtube, if you were so inclined)
