Nonnie I feel kinda similar, even worse. I had two oshis, one was streaming at a good hour for me while the other wasn't so I was vod gang. But lately I can't even sit and watch their streams for long. I used to watch games I'm interested in and zatsus, then put other streams as bg noise but I haven't really had the need to watch full streams even when it's games I like lately. I just put it on if I come across it. I kinda miss when I was getting food and waiting for my oshi's stream every day kek but I guess the novelty wears off even after being a part of my routine for so long. I used to search for clips from their friends too but now I don't wanna know what anyone's doing with all this drama lol

My pleasure! I am glad you liked it.
Which reminds me, i was planning on writing a post about Nijisanji not allowing Selen to create her own events anymore, etc, which is extremely unfair. I think I will make sure to post Selen as OP in next thread, she is a lovely dragon after all.

>>324519
Ive been feeling that way for over a year now. In the end I got too tired of western drama and cliques surrounding eachother that I usually watch big events or streams of vtubers that are professional and work under a corp, or they are small and drama-free without any wrong "vibe". At a first glance, its tough to find women and men who are not obviously here for the clout and money, but there are good vtubers out there. I sadly feel too worried to mention the indies names in this thread because I don't want their names to be associated with vt or lc (because as you know, vt men pretend that all of the doxxing comes from here).
Outside that, i stick to watching Baelz, Bijou, Miko, Suisei and Advent collabs.

Samefagging but does anyone remember when Sasaki essentially graduated from Niji because Nintendo was banning streams of their games and Niji as a company fought to keep her and actually contacted Nintendo to strike a deal that allowed her to keep her vods and keep streaming? That's the era I miss. That would literally never happen today.

Not burntout but I'm still suscribed to a few Niji guys even though I haven't watched a full stream in years.
They can be fun in clips still but I just don't feel like watching hours of Minecraft or Apex or whatever random grinding game/dumb indie horror they tend to play.

Tbh that was me a few months ago, but I watch more than I used to ever since Advent debuted. I know that FWMC have been… controversial here, to say the least, but the level fo kayfabe they bring to the Western vtubing scene + their commitment to idol culture + general consitency have really reinvigorated my motivation to watch a vtuber. It's a low bar nowadays, but they're relisble, and I can count on them to continue delivering a positive and reliable time.
And just generally speaking, it's a good time to be a Hololive fan. I'd consider it one of the few areas of Western vtubing that are doing alright nowadays. Trouble comes in waves, so it's sure to break sooner or later. But right now? It's good.

No. 324608

Watching K9KURO’s debut, looks like it was Mysta afterall.
His voice does not fit that model at all. It’s funny.

Idk how to feel tbh because I thought he graduated because of burnout and v-tubing being bad for his mental health….only to join another company as a vtuber. I assumed he would eventually just go back to being indie or being a fleshtuber.

Agree with you wholeheartedly.
I enjoy watching FWMC morning streams, they are amazing. The fact how they actually care about their audience and treat Hololive like a job (unlike many of the ENs other than Baelz and Kiara) is something else. I do not like their choices of games so I only watch FWMC karaoke (which are always SO DAMN GOOD. these girls are crazy!?, collabs, mornings and that one Fuwa-solo stream where she played Phasmophobia.
I dont think what they do is a "low bar". They are geniunely putting effort in things they do, even to think about it, they always write scripts for fwmc and make sure that they keep themselves in character on stream and social media. It is quite a dedication. Way better than going the usual "easy route" when a person would try going gfe mode for easy simp money. I am glad they filter out ironic weebs tbf.
Its also refreshing to see en vtubers make sure their viewers are getting better instead of using them as a shoulder to cry on. The "fuwamoco morning outings" alone is a smart way to give someone a habit of going outside and enjoying the day with photography and whatnot.

>>324608
I lost respect for him shortly.
Yesterday, vshojo had its Kuro announcement. By the looks of it, he tweeted something on his Mysta account (people were bombarding him with replies). Then 2 minites before kuro debut, he tweeted it on his roommate account.
As long as shit gives him money, he will go anywhere. Wont be surprised if Vesper and Magni join too. Especially Magni.

i stick to mostly indie streamers on twitch who don't do many collabs if at all, so less chance for drama and random graduations because of black companies. i sub to a few nijisanji and hololive people and i get how it's tiring to watch them especailly since they stick to the same old games like apex, minecraft, or the small list of games the company has obtained permission to stream.

>>324608
vshojo is pretty lax about its members. i think hime barely streams because of her other identity and she's still in the company and gets money from merch sales and promotions they do with other companies. from kson's words, her contract also improved after their biggest vtubers left. vshojo can play whatever games they want without having it just be apex so it looks appealing to him that he would join i guess.

The Hime thing low key pisses me off because she was already a popular AnitUber and clearly did Hime purely for clout. Someone made a model for her only so she could never stream yet still reap the benefits of merchandising.

Maybe it’s also because I already don’t like her other identity much either.

I actually just got into it (about 2 weeks ago) and pretty much walked into picrel w graduation / drama etc. My first exposure to vtubers was merryweather and shoto (kek) because a few acquaintances I know simp for them, then youtube rec'd me vox (double kek) w algo. On a surface level they were fine, just a few dirty jokes and fujobaiting, but then found them too disgusting to keep watching, esp after reading about them in the threads. So ig I speedran burnout for them.

I still do like the chara design for Vox / what he is like when he's not acting like a coomer (which is him 99% of the time lol), but I guess that's the majority of male vtubers. I do like Ike tho, I like to have him as my bg noise and I like how he doesn't like being parasocial / doesn't pander, just seems like a cute nerdy guy and I find his voice soothing. Even if he's secretly a coomer, he doesn't talk about that stuff on stream which is what matters at the end of the day. I also like Shu for similar reasons.

For female youtubers I really like Kotoka and Selen b/c they don't do that whole loli pandering bs. I can't stand the squeaky voice bullshit, it just makes my ears bleed. Idk who else to watch b/c I'm pretty new to all this, feel free to rec anyone who's not a total degen. I need more based female vtubers on my list.

Do you mean Zaion? Because the only ones who blew the lid on it were Finana, Kyo, and XSoleil excluding Doppio.

Me to a T, their karaoke and morning streams are great. I'm not too into their gaming streams as there's not much substance aside from cute reaction noises, which gets sort of mind numbing after more than 10 minutes. Which is a shame because I actually like their game choices.

I can't get that into Nerissa as a streamer (personally not into "yuri for the camera" type chuubas… feels a little disingenuous from my lesbian POV) but her covers are seriously so good, I check all of them out, and I never do that for a chuuba I don't watch. It's great that EN finally got a strong singer at debut with a strong drive to keep putting out music.
Her English covers also just land so well within my tastes. A lot of the time I feel like English covers of JP songs have an uncanny quality to them, but hers flow very naturally with nice personal flare to them.
Overall, I genuinely adore this gen. They all bring something good to thre table. The onky one I'm not a fan of is probably Shiori because of the GFE and honestly just… feeling like she pushes so hard to be weird while lacking depth or actual uniqueness of tastes…? But I don't hate her.

No. 324653

This might be controversial here but I don't mind Vox at all. While his content is not my cup of tea, it was a breath of fresh air to have a guy openly pander to his female fans and deliver what they wanted. The inevitable drama was, imho, inevitable, but as far as I've seen from him he doesn't really have a cruel bone in his body when he interacts with his peers. He's gotten better over time too and I hope he can find more comfort being more of a "brotuber".

Nijisanji as a whole has plummeted so hard though… I find it difficult to watch them with the same enthusiasm as I did before, but I've never liked most of Hololive because most of them are idols and I am personally not just an idol enthusiast. For Holostars, I was big into Vesper when he first debuted, but the more he went on, the more I lost respect for him. I enjoyed Bettel a lot, but his shtick grew old for me fast. I want to give Hakka a try, but I think I am suffering from burnout and should just avoid them for now.

I wish I spoke Japanese so I could truly enjoy the JP livers for Niji and Holo, they seem to be less infested with drama. I do still listen to Kanae from NijiJP though because his voice is very soothing.

As for Mysta… I am sort of disappointed that he chose to redebut this quickly, but I don't blame him for leaving Nijisanji. I don't think I'd want to stick around with that company knowing all we know now. He is a mess himself, and while I think he redebuted a little bit too fast, I don't blame him too much. I won't watch him though because his PL seems really vile and he comes off as the average mentally ill coombrained pedo. No thanks.

Thank you for coming to my blogpost.

Idk much about Vox as a person, but the reason people dislike him is because even though he panders to women he clearly uses it as an excuse to be a coomer.

Even in his ASMR’s he tends to showcase some kind of disturbing fetishes. Such as pretending to do things to the often female coded listener such as slapping them, spitting on them, degrading them , not to mention how so many of his ASMR’s are r*pe/dubcon fantasies. Even in his more wholesome ASMR’s you end up getting stuff like that.

It’s fine to enjoy his content, and idk the guy personally enough to say whether or not he sucks irl. But I mainly dislike him for being a coomer.

That clip of him going through his “dislikes” is pissing me off. God he seems like such a dickhead about everything. Him talking about how he hates fandoms when he’s obsessed with nagatoro as his “Waifu.”

No. 324729

>>324655
I get you're reasoning, but it's shortsighted. His issue is that his "pandering to women" is clearly more sexually gratifying to him than considerate of women and the actual content of that pandering is disrespectful to women. The guy is a low quality coomer with a decent voice that allows him to get away with this shit. It's as bad as any of the other moids in Nijisanji who simply coincidentally benefit the tastes of women with zero standards.

No. 324741

>Even though he panders to women he clearly uses it as an excuse to be a coomer.
This is part of what pisses me off about him. He went out of his way to market himself as a coomer but can't stop crying about not being taken seriously. If he acted as a manwhore for so long, why does he thinks people will suddenly like him for his personality? I would at least respect him if he committed to the part, but he's so wishy washy with his fans it's honestly kind of funny how pathetic he is.

>>324713

I think it's funny that he expected his fans to have a healthy reaction to his shift in focus, too. Like, you really think that healthy women are into the degrading shit you put out?
When it comes to heavy fanservice male vtubers, I think Doppio is the only one I actually find tolerable. He has an actual personality that's not based in coomerism and uses his fanservice like an actual collaborative creative medium between himself and his fans rather than as an outlet for his own fetishes. And he's an actual adult who knows how to take care of himself, so you're not going to see him having a menhera breakdown over infantilization from his fans like a few of the other notable "safe" male vtubers.
Genuinely not trying to shill here as whether he's your taste or not is a different matter, but it's sad how hard it is to find a male vtuber that can provide decent fanservice without making it all about his own gratification.

I still can’t believe he thought sharing his full ADHD and C-PTSD mental diagnosis to his audience was a good idea to “bring awareness”. Even Mysta of all people made fun of him for that, kek. I get that he recently just entered his 20s, but jesus he always puts his entire brain out there for any onlooker to poke and pick at. I knew he was fucking mental when he got upset about his fans calling him “fat” after he posted a picture of his midsection. They were all saying he had a sexy dadbod and he had a meltdown bad enough to make him get a personal trainer.

i love a good boyfriend moan asmr but vox’s stuff always felt very male-centric to me. yes he has a good deep voice and a clear mic so his asmrs/roleplays were enjoyable to some extent but they were mostly him living out his fantasies rather than him making content for the girls. From the scripts i could just tell that he enjoyed being able to pretend to beat and dominate women and act out on morally gray scenarios (like the prof asmr)without being called out bc he could just go “but the girls like it!!!1!!” and not take responsibility

Nobody is saying they shouldn't be allowed to have it, not sure where you're getting that from.

Anyways… I've been watching more Hakka lately, I'm surprised at hoe funny he is? He's a great singer, too, I find myself enjoying hid covers along with Axel's more than any other male vtuber.
I feel like I see him talked about the least out of the Tempus boys, which is kind of surprising considering his sub count is comparable to Bettel's. Also did not realize that he shares a mama with Kaida Haru– what a theowback, I used to watch the guy a lot.

Hakka's really funny and feels like he really appreciates his audience. Since his first OG song I've been keeping up with his covers/songs and he kills it every time. He feels like a real holostar. It's nice to see that such a passionate streamer and singer got accepted into EN, he seems to be giving energy to the others too. Shame I'm not a burger so no EN holostar's schedule is fit for me… If I had time to watch someone else's vods other than my stars oshi Hakka would definitely be my choice.

It's Flayon, I meant I only have time to catch up to one EN star's vods. But I do watch JPstars clips when I find them. There my oshi would be Izuru because I absolutely adore his voice and singing skill. His stream time is really good for me but I don't like watching the fiftieth FPS stream of the month kek I do watch his other streams cause I love hearing his voice even without understanding him though. I love Rio's voice a lot too and keep up with his covers and karaoke. From the clips I saw there's something to like about all of them, Shien and Oga would probably be my other oshis if I understood Japanese. At the risk of getting booed, I'll admit I like when men do proper fanservice for women lol

I agree with you irt the fanservice from the JPstars, I've always felt that Shien in particular does a good job catering to his female fans. Not only with his nice voice but also his past game choices like his series of Twisted Wonderland streams– it was fun watching him genuinely enjoy a joseimuke.
I think Oga is also great for female fans, but it feels less like deliberate fanservice and just him naturally getting along with women? He's fun, respectful, and nice, and I love his gap moe when it comes to things like his cute little drawings and moments of pon.

I don't watch him as much as I used to, but Izuru is my original oshi. His acoustic singing streams are great, and I like that he always keeps it real with his audience and discourages gachikoi, to the point of not even having a "fan name". I also like the contrast between his brattiness and prickly personality with his cute model, yet he himself seems to like the cuteness and doesn't downplay his cute appeal. Similar to the other anon though, I'm not a huge FPS fan, which lowkey sucks as a vtuber fan because almost all my favorite personalities (Chronoir, Selen, Ollie) main FPS streams..

NTA, but I want to shill Rio! He has a soothing voice that is easy to listen to even if you don't really understand Japanese. He's generally pretty wholesome and doesn't do coomerbait content at all (from what I understand) and when he does interact with the other Holostars members in shippy/bantery ways, it's usually in a way that's seen as cute. I like that he puts in the effort to interact with English speaking vtubers (his Fall Guys stream with Hakka is a good example of this) and vtubers from other companies, and that he acknowledges English comments in his chat if they're simple enough.

Of course, his singing voice is also great! Vidrel is one of his more iconic streams where he invited a lot of guests for his 1 year anniversary as a Holostars member to sing with him.

without fujo baiting, he is nothing. he set himself for failure when he pushed his female fans away. men do not watch male vtubers unless they are pro players (like RPR). He sucks at all the games he play, leauge as a game is not streamer friendly, and nobody likes TikTok reaction videos on vtubers. Reaction streams are for fleshtubers flr a reason, you need the human expressions for it, it just doesn’t work for vtubers. he’s gonna flop so bad. So many chinese fans on iketog are enraged because he farmed thousands of supas by pretending to be graduating from vtubing only to come back in a few weeks. He thought the money would be ever flowing because he grew up piss poor and neither him nor his mom has any financial literacy. (remember when she got scammed like an idiot?)no chinese sugar mommies will be supporting him on his new account, he tricked them all and then casted them away like an idiot. i’m saying again, he’s gonna flop so bad, and it will be so entertaining to watch his downfall. the menhera clips and tweets will be so much fun.

his views are smaller on his youtube than on his mysta channel, but if his main stream is on twitch then he'll probably do fine. twitch is small so 7k CCV is a lot there, and if he truly doesn't care about his fans then he'll make even more money by completing his ad incentives. as an example, AdmiralBahroo who is almost at the same size of viewers, was offered $44,000 for just one month of ad incentive completion.

Honestly, I don’t feel like he’s going to find a new audience at all. The people who didn’t like him already made their choice to avoid him like the plague. The ones who did like him despite his bipolar attitudes are getting shat on because of a loud minority of unicorns and schizochans. Sponsor and ad revenue money will definitely come in, but if he refuses to seek mental help in order to become a better person in general, the numbers are going to dwindle again. He’s also attracting 10x more hate than before with this nonsense, like I thought he would.

i think you're putting too much stock on view count. ad incentives, subathons, sponsors, and merch sales will more than make up for it because even a ~100 viewer andy on twitch can get around 1k+ subs per month and that's not including how much they can get from subathons either and i dont think he'll ever drop that low even if the hype dies down.

He would greatly benefit from taking a break from streaming and social media in general, it’s clearly terrible for his mental health.

I love this nerdy cute novelist. I get that he's not the most high energy VTuber to watch but out of all the male chuubas he seems like one of the 'normal ones'. Doesn't do the whole "haha seggs joke so funny" shit and other gross stuff that most moid streamers resort to. His character design is also cute, but then again I have a thing for 2d men in glasses kek

I've also been watching Luca and he's my second favorite so far if not liking him as almost as the same level as Ike, he also seems well adjusted and I love the whole goofy golden retriever persona.

Sage for blogposting and my personal complaints. I started vtubing a few weeks ago, and it's 100% just for my own fun. I'm putting time and effort into what I'm making, and doing more than just streaming, so I'm lucky to be gaining a few hundred followers. I only expect this to be a hobby for me. I don't expect this to ever pay my rent. In fact I expect it to be a net financial loss.

That being said, I've seen too many people in the vtubing scene who act like spoilt whiny babies when they only have 100 followers after a year or got rejected from Hololive for the umpteenth time when all they do is the absolute bare minimum. All they do is get a model, then start streaming the same handful of games for a couple of hours every week, then expect the followers to come rolling in.

No advertising themselves, no experimenting with new and unique stuff, no trying to find a niche (like ASMR, language teaching, creating artwork or music, handcams). Just, 'wah wah wah, why won't Hololive hire me, I streamed 200 hours this past year and I draw anime sometimes.'

Of course you 'deserve' to be in Hololive. Everyone and their mom wants to play vidya for a living and be showered in cash and fanart. But you've done nothing new, you don't have good conversational skills or banter, and you'd probably crack under pressure the moment more than 20 people were watching your stream and you started receiving death threats.

(I'm sure there are very good streamers who just haven't picked up momentum yet, but 99% of amateur Vtubers are doing the same, mediocre things. Nonnies who are just vtubing for fun, this isn't directed at you.)

You're literally right though. To me, the best streamers, vtuber or not, are either like modern improv comedians, or people who have a lot of interesting stories and life experience. Uninteresting weebs whose only hobbies are gaming, anime, streaming, and youtube have nothing to offer a large audience. Also not hating on hobby streamers, I used to stream art and it was a great reason to stay focused, but I'm no Ina and I didn't expect to be.

I used to Vtube for fun too but stopped bcs I was quite tired juggling between work and streaming for a year (it was my fault tho for my bad scheduling). I've been planning to stream again and try being chill with my schedule.

I agree with your points. It's quite funny for me to see them whining about numbers and how they are qualified to be in Vtuber agencies but all they do are involving themselves into dramas, doing controversy takes and baiting people with having big boobas and say lewd things. Tbh I wanna see Vtubers that has the same vibes as Jerma/Vinny Vinesauce and female Vtubers who do otome contents.

I could never judge someone who's just doing it for fun, and wish I could see your streams!

At least lewdtubers are providing something (sexual titillation) even though I don't like it. But if all someone is doing is playing flavor of the week games and commenting on it, and wants to make it into Holo/Niji, I feel like they need an exceptionally charismatic personality. Like, people were happy to sit and listen to Vesper talk for an hour about cooking chili, because he was entertaining to listen to.

Too many amateur vtubers are focusing on ~muh lore~ but literally no one cares about how you're a half vampire half succubus from the year 2123 with a magic sword or whatever if you have a dry personality and no life experiences.

If you don't have exceptional people skills and you want to make it as a vtuber, I feel like you need to start honing some other kind of skill, like singing, ASMR, multilingual skills, or making edited videos. Sitting there and playing games on Twitch is the bare minimum.

Anyways /end my 2nd blogpost and RIP to my male acquaintance who has been trying to vtube as a 'career' for like a year now and has less than 200 twitch followers kek.

I'm gonna sperg.
I'm Korean and IDGAF lol. I've seen a lot of racefakers and disrespectful weebs in my time and they're not that. They're fluent in the language of the culture they love and they're always respectful. They've made it clear on their RM accounts both of their own volition and every time it has come up that they are White. Their speech may be sort of cringe but it mostly reads as them trying to be cute. It's not like they're using incorrect grammar or mispronouncing words in a slapdash approximation of ESL speech. And the age isn't an issue to me because most of my favorite vtubers are of a similar age. What are you going to do next, cancel Korone?
I really did dislike them the most at the beginning. And honestly, I still don't enjoy them in collabs and a lot of their gaming content because it's just not that interesting beyond "cute girls make funny noises". But being as big a fan of Hololive as I am, spending time with them in a zatsu setting or in FWMC morning was bound to turn my stance around on them as people. They're always punctual, always present quality, and have an incredible depth of knowledge stemming from actual decades of passion far beyond most fans any Japanese cultural product. I really do enjoy hearing them sperg about their interests and bring that same enthusaism to their work as vtubers. It's earnest and refreshing.
Not to be accusatory, but I really do think a lot of the hate levied towards them is coming from people who dislike Hololive to begin with and are simply buying into an overblown narrative of their supposed wrongs. Either that or you only watch a couple of the ENs and aren't a fan of Hololive as a whole. It's just too hypocritical to disavow them while still supporting a lot of the other big Hololive names.
The only thing you can really "get" them on is alleged incest baiting, but it's really not that present and the whole thing is just what you'd expect of twins who have based their entire entertainment career off of being twins. If that's someone's issue, that's completely fair and I actually would agree with you in that I plan to dip if it gets worse.

No. 326539

Ayrt, I can see the points of your argument. They do at least seem like they want to be in Hololive and care about being there unlike some of the talents, so I can see the appeal of that.
The only things I'll add is that their downsides are things I personally can't stand. I only mention their age because of the uwu voice. Maybe some could argue it's their devotion to the role and shows how good performers they are, but I simply can't do with uwu voice. I'm sure their natural voices are lovely and appealing, but I just can't sit there and listen to the garbled uwuspeak. Never met anyone who speaks like that irl.
I also feel like they like/support lolicon culture. Maybe this sounds more like a tinfoil hat, but I'm pretty sure I've seen posts from their past life of them enjoying loli stuff. I know it's prevalent in a lot of anime, but loli is just a personal no-go for me.

I think the nonpreference for their voices is fair, and you're entitled to that. It's up to personal taste, and I do understand what you mean when it comes to some other vtubers. For example, I respect Bijou as a streamer but I can't get behind the actual loli model coupled with a forced child voice on any woman. Same goes for Luna from JP actively infantilizing herself, although I think it's not as bad these days as it was a couple years ago.
I've never really gotten the lolicon vibe from them TBH. They like cute anime girl designs in general, but actively lusting after lolis is a level of degeneracy I just wouldn't be able to get behind.

Maybe backstabby wasn't the right word. I can't truly blame vtubers for finding the workplace they're most happy in, if they're doing it for a living.

I like her, but it reminds me of how Suzuhuara Lulu stated fan stalking as a reason for graduation and then quickly redebuted as a fleshtuber. Hard to blame fans for feeling emotionally twisted around by it.
I think part of the blame does just lie around the traditions of vtuber culture, though. Especially when it comes to corpo graduations.

if you want an insect girl, JuniperActias's model commits to the bug girl concept pretty well with moth limbs/inhuman features which is partly why people thought it would be her debuting in vshojo at first. she switches to her more human-like model sometimes from the few times I've seen of streams on Twitch tho. there are several insect and moth vtubers i cant remember the name of.

I don't closely follow Nina, but didn't she give an excuse during graduation, something like she felt like she wasn't performing well anymore and was a disappointment?

It feels very disingenuous that they bothered holding auditions if they only intended to hire friends and vtubers who were already famous.

Idk what’s going on with him, but I’ve never liked him as a content creator. Everything he does seems calculated in a way that’s just trying to get fame and views. Including his vtubing career. He’s not an untalented writer and occasionally will put out some genuinely good stuff, but he very clearly cares about getting as much clout as possible first and foremost.

Maybe he’s acting like this because his attempt at a vtubing group flopped or something…idk.

I feel like there's a level of cultural nuance to it when people like Fubuki or Flare say they like loli. The way I see it, it's kind of like how people say they like furry; we might think of the animal fucker fursuit wearing degenerate types, but it might just be they like funny Zootopia/Beastars animal people.

Basically about a month ago Merry officially created his own vtubing company called astraline. With that a vtubing group was created(also called astraline) that included him , lumi and 3 newly debuted vtubers.

Of course merry slapped his own face at the forefront of this group but that’s not too important.
Besides that the 3 newly debuted vtubers seem to be making very little noise and getting little traction. The most followers one has is 12k and the two others haven’t broken 10k yet.

Obviously this could change in the future and followers aren’t everything, it should be about enjoying yourself. But Merry has always seemed like the type of creator to care about popularity and views more than anything.

>a lewd outfit that she used only for a month, drawn by an entirely different artist that couldn't even bother matching her skin color and looked out of place because how different the artists styles were
Couldn't find a lot of "that" 3d kson clips, feel like they were trying to scrap the awful look at it under the rug.

He is basically a normal man with a deep voice. Just a nice man who doesn't do anything retarded. HolostarsJP in general is the best male group i found, because they are literally just "boys doing things". Their bond between eachother will never break.
I do not recommend western moids because they are the worlds biggest coomers. The only EN guy that seems okay is Axel in my book, he knows both ENG and JP, and didnt join the corpo just to get closer to their e-celeb crush or any crap like that, unlike some other people.

Samefag but if you want to watch some deeper voiced EN tubers who have Japanese streams, Shu Yamino and Sonny Brisko do streams in Japanese. I’ve only watched Sonny’s and he usually uses simple to understand Japanese so it’s easy to grasp what he’s saying and pick up new words. He doesn’t bring up gross topics on his streams and makes a point not to, which I like, and isn’t a really loud person and Shu isn’t either. I also agree with nonna’s opinion above with recommending Axel Syrios because he does a lot of Japanese streams and speaks Japanese a good amount throughout his English streams as well. But if you only want JP tubers, Holostars is the way to go.
I’d recommend Axia Krone if his streams still existed because I found the language he used simple to understand even while being N5. There are clips of him that exist out there if that helps you at all.

Anyone else just still kinda pissed at Magni and Vesper? It is one thing to leave, but it bothers me that they fucked over the rest of EN Stars just because they didn't like having management tell them things sometimes.

True and it's weird because A) JP Stars fans were never aggressive towards Nijisanji or tribalist, and B) The shilling was mostly based around Vesper and Magni (and I guess Bettel but to a much lower extent and seems much more genuine, with female fans) who had a moid audience.

i have very mixed feelings about it still and am taking a break from vtubers in gen just to think about it.

my theory is that vesper got hurt in someway, he mentioned having to do physical therapy a lot. So cover said some bullshit to vesper about his work so magni jumped in saying if he goes, im going. so eventually they left. from the JP members, it doesn't sound like them leaving was planned and very abrupt due to ongoing contract negotiations.
so 1, i fucking hate cover because they treat their EN employees like shit. 2, I don't like how vesteas/magmites were treated after graduation. it's probably parasocialandy from me, but when you support a creator and they just give up and not even acknowledge their own work just leaves a bad taste in all the memories.

side note: i'm sure bettel is on his way out unless cover renegotiates his contract so well that he won't want to leave.

No. 327874

>>327872
I think you phrased it well about them not acknowledging anything. I initially liked Magni and Vesper a lot when they debuted, but the way they just vanished suddenly leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Especially when Pako had just made new art and Magni was just re-rigged. I guess streamers are human beings first and foremost, but it still sucks.
Even if the person playing the character is fantastic, we're still kind of attached to the character in the way, art and everything. Re-debuts or retirements are bound to happen, but when vtubers just redebut left and right, it takes a way a little bit of the magic for me.

Know nothing about Vesper, but he gave off a vibe of a weirdo IT-guy with massive 'tism. Out of everyone in their cursed gen, I think only Axel deserved to be in Hololive.

I am just glad they fucked off, even if they did it in the most obvious 'we dont give a shit about anything but money', way. Especially how they did Pako's new model dirty. The disrespect, lmao.

I watch his PL and he seems pretty aimless on there. Just doing whatever to do whatever. As Bettel, it always seems like he has new ideas all the time, dropping unexpected covers or projects. And implicating he might leave because of him just hanging out with Lando on stream makes me think of how some trolls tried to say Mori would leave Hololive because she streams as Demondice and talks to KSon. To me it just seems like he needs a break from streaming as Bettel for a bit because he’s been going hard for a while.

No. 328362

Hopefully you're right because I think he fits Stars and has a good dynamic with the others. The others seem to be more active in their pls too but maybe that's just to stream games they can't in holo once in a while.

No. 328418

There's a contractual constraint to how much time can pass from initial sign-on to when they can become properly active in their PLs again. I wouldn't attribute a rise in activity on his PL to much more than that.

Sorry if this isn't the right thread to ask this but do any nonnas who are Vtubers put LGBTQI+ tags in their Twitch channel?
Asking because I've read about several farmers from here that they are Vtubers and want to cater to a female audience only. I've found several female Vtubers that aren't part of any agency, are very chill and have obvious female appeal, but they tend to have those obnoxious kinds of tags (despite not being FtMs or even they/thems, and being obviously straight too), so I was wondering if any of you use gendie tags to camouflage as not-TERFs?

I seriously fucking hate when Vtubers show their mugs, do these losers really think they would have as many fans as they have if they didn’t depend on an attractive character? They would all have 200 followers at best and it would be mostly moids and low self-esteem women.
It’s just so smug of them all to think that because they created a fandom, that their faces won’t be considered as fucking ugly as they are, and while some people can wear their fan glasses 24/7, I personally consider it’s of a really bad taste to reveal who the fuck you truly are, like, they’re not voice actors, you can just ignore a voice actor’s face and just know that your favorite character isn’t the voice actor; but Vtubers are literally the character.

Another NijiID leaving isn’t really surprising. Riksa and Xia are leaving too and while ID fans on twitter cry about it, they didn’t even bother to tune into Xia’s graduation stream and Riksa didn’t even make one. Riksa has the lowest amount of average viewers among all of Nijisanji and Xia is close behind, and while Mika did bring herself out of the place ID intentionally put themselves in by milking the fuck out of EN, her friends left so of course she’s going too. I really think that if ID weren’t so cliquey and didn’t ghost ID members that achieved fame and allowed themselves to adapt and grow as creators like KR did, they’d toe and toe with HoloID. Hana used to be one of the most popular English speaking vtubers back in 2020, but she squandered that all because of a misguided sense of loyalty towards ID and wanting to be friends with them after they shut her out for being popular. Everything about it is so retarded.

She only attained the numbers she currently has by rubbing against EN— but most specifically Mysta. I don't find it at all surprising that she's graduating, and I think it's 100% likely she will end up in Vshojo, solely based on the fact that she is closest to both Mysta and Nina.

>Has the nerve to namedrop Nina when she was debuting that same day as Matara
>Complains about money even when she spends it all on merch and travelling.
The funniest part tho was the tweet she made almost immediately after ending the stream, apologizing to Yuniiho for being a retard kek
It's amazing how she lost all the good faith people that aren't her die-hard fans thanks to a 30 min rant. Wonder how many more bridges she will burn in the future. If some corpo was thinking about giving her a chance, I'm sure she's now seen as a terrible fit for any corpo culture

Oh, there are still some that are giving her support, but they’re the ones who unironically foam out the mouth whenever Nijisanji is even mentioned anywhere and send hate to members even though it’s the company that is a problem.

Her complaining about her community being out of control, constantly sexualizing her, not actually giving a fuck about her, etc. is the most ironic part of the whole rant.

Even as Zaion she had her likes full of porn of her model. I just don’t understand what she wants and I can even understand where her fans are coming from when they get frustrated with her on that front. She needs to stop flip flopping and figure out what she really wants out of her career, cause it seems like she’ll just be streaming genshin, reacting to videos, begging for people to feel bad for her, then rinse & repeat. It’s sad. With how often she frequents 4chan and even talks about specific memes and says criticism on there is legitimate compared to other platforms (hell, the whole rant was triggered by a comment on there), it lets us know that she probably sees what people say about her ex-genmates and Nijisanji and how harshly the members get treated on there and finds that “legitimate” and amusing. I don’t think she registers that this makes her look even worse of a person than she already does.

She actually was bragging about how she could have easily burn the company into the ground, like that didn't make her look shitty.
The fact that she even said all those things about Yuniiho pretty much confirms she has 4chan brainrot, considering that was basically the only place where people theorized Yuniiho gave priority to clients that payed more, and Sayu decided to believe that rumor for some reason and spread a moid rumor about her friend. I still don't understand how they're still viewers that coddle her in her stupid decisions

I prefer Bijou and Fuwamoco.
I love how all 3 actually try really hard to reach new heights. Bijou is always collabing with others, even shows up in holoJP chats, engaging with fans and their content, etc. She really seems like a ruthless business woman, lol. But my favorite part are her and Kaela collabs, they get along so well.
Fuwamoco are doing their own original content, i love their fwmc show, their games are not to my taste, so i watch collabs instead (i enjoyed the Fubuki collab). I love how they also show how much they care about the fans and actually want you to get better and improve, instead of being one of those gfe manipulators or arguing with your fanbase like Kronii and Amelia did (even though in Ame case, i understand. She grew sick of her own fanbase almost 2 years ago. Poor girl).
>Shiori
I dont watch Shiori because she is too desperate when it comes to being a schizo/gosling glue, coming off as extremely desperate. On top of that, her interview with Kiara + her past…no thanks.
>Nerissa
She is not my type because of coomerism+her trying to gather Kiaras fanbase came off as tacky to me, and some of her other collab choices, too. But i like hearing about her family, its super fun. Admittedly i only prefer watching her play Terraria, she does super well in collabs too. Bless her for opening Terraria server.

I like her too! can't really follow a lot of her streams because I don't particularly like those "endurance" streams, it's endearing how much she tries to interact with the JP girls and their chat interactions. I didn't have much faith in her because of the loli voice and design, but she's becoming one of my favorites, it sucks that a lot of scrotes have such a coomer attitude towards her, but otherwise she's very nice.

I'd usually mind the GFE more but she's too goofy for me to take it seriously lol.
Nerissa is probably my least watched, mostly because of the light coomerism and her yuribait. I'm a lesbian but yuribait just really turns me off regardless of the streamer's actual orientation.

Nerissa and Biboo's sleepover was really cozy, I love the bird's relaxed energy. I tried Shiori for a while but agreed that her fanbase is absolutely the worst one and get upset that gasp, a woman in her twenties who is probably cute IRL has had multiple boyfriends. They're all so hypocritical with their expectations of her and infight all the time, I hate moids so much. They're all insistent on how roasties and pick-mes are sooooo bad all while being so blind that Shiori's entire kayfabe is a quirky pickme who absolutely knows what she is doing. Only sad bit is recently she's realized just how mentally ill said fanbase is and how far they will go (look at Fauna currently…) and she's having to backtrack a bit from wanting to be a cute housewife to insisting they find their own gfs.

Having… multiple partners in your life time is the most normal thing if you’re a moderately attractive person. But wait…. The closest these people have had to a relationship is with the discord and soc girls they groomed so it’s not really surprising they think it’s a lot. I wish they could shut the fuck up and stop getting so mad about what the person does in their private life because, unless they bring that shit on stream, it doesn’t matter. It never has, it never will. It doesn’t change content either, seeing as how Fauna still does the same old stuff while having a boyfriend.

I think I was initially filtered by her crazy design and how hard she was trying to keep a cute voice in the beginning. However, I think she talks in a much more normal voice now. Plus, she seems like she's always working on new stream ideas and projects.
I like her girly normie energy. She seems like she'd be fun to go shopping with or travel with.

If it was another person who didn't hype it for too long I wouldn't mind it and still find it impressive that they made a 40 minute project but we were given too much hope for this one kek I'm curious to see what he added to the story to extend a lore video to a "feature lenght" slideshow though. If he fails, he'll fail hard this time.

His fans will probably eat it up no matter what in all honesty.
Honestly I think it’s mainly because it’s Vox that I have so little hope for this project. If it was a smaller vtuber I agree that it would be pretty impressive even if it’s a slideshow.

But considering how it’s Vox who wants to be seen as a “serious” filmmaker I’m gonna judge it harsher. Also I’m just not the biggest fan of Vox .

No shade to them at all but honestly Fuwamoco just make me feel jealous lol. I watch them and it just makes me wish I was born with a twin sister who was into the same weeb shit as me. I'm sure it has it's own unique set of issues but I hope they realise how lucky they are to have each other. When I watch them, they make me feel kind of lonely because of that. They always seem like they're having a lot of fun with each other even when they argue and I wish I had that kind of relationship.

Same, I want a twin the way they're twins. I have multiple sets of twins in my family who get aet along to various degrees from pretty well to terribly (not on speaking terms) so I get that what they have is a very unique circumstance even among twins. But what they have seems really comforting and nice. Just, like, reliable, you know?
It's kind of the same with Bettel and Bettel to, for me. When they live together and can count on each other for life shit and talk about getting meals and splitting rent and stuff it makes me jealous.

idk if anyone else noticed the careful wording on the recently graduated and returned vtubers. But it seems like both cover/nijisanji have entered a new clause under their contracts that new employees must forgo their previous vtuber models used in their personal lives, even if it was only used for audition.

maybe i'm reading into it too much, but it would explain why so many of them are delayed from redebuting immediately and never return to their old model.

No. 331455

>>331431
i don't know about this theory. a few of the very recently graduated streamers did return to their old models and names. like orc even currently, and sayu for a bit after her return. if you're talking about vshojo, i think it's a case of new models and/or names generating more hype because new models and/or names lead to interest on social media because people will want to guess who it is. new models mean debut streams and debut stream always give higher CCV than their average. the only ones in vshojo who kept their models and names were big indies whose IP were never owned by a company in the first place.

I'm not saying they can't keep their persona/accounts, but that the particular moving vtuber model can't be used. Orc has only used reacting gifs since returning, sayu also only used gifs because her model is still being made.

What led me to this train of thought was that connor said he could no longer use his model anymore.

I think she's referring to Bettel, his pl is commander connor or something. I think they just can't use any vtuber model while in the company. They can stream with their faces or no model/face some time after their debut, but they can't have another vtuber identity. As to why they decide to change models when they return to their pls, it might be just to get hype for a new look or they think they can get a better model with the money they made?

I’d be inclined to believe that seeing as how uncommon it is, but Shinri did that as LexParte though during the whole Magni-Vesper graduation limbo thing. He put out a schedule as Lex and had his previous Vtuber model, rigging and all, in use during those streams. It’s been a while since he streamed on there but it’s definitely possible for talents to do it.

Fauna has been my favorite Holo girl since she debuted and I hate her fanbase with a passion. I hate how they pushed the mommy schtick onto her, I hate how they constantly bring up her bf, I hate how they nonstop sexualize her and simultaneously infantilize her.

correct me if I'm wrong but didn't she push the "mommy" shtick herself with doing an "ara ara mommy voice" multiple times, doing ASMR content of ear cleaning and having the viewer pretend they're laying their head on her lap, and having encouraged artists to draw art of her in a cowkini? she actively plays into that sort of content from what I've seen.

IMO it's a similar deal to what's now occurring with Shior
Both women sort of lean into catering for their male fanbases, but that doesn't mean there aren't boundaries to how far they're willing for it to go. But males are genuinely unhinged and will take a mile when you give them an inch, so they end up with insane male fans who go mental over the slightest contamination of their mental images of these women.
I'm not interested in blaming them for how things are, as they both seem like relatively nice and healthy girls whose general fanbases don't deserve what they try to take from them. But people should really learn from/predict this shit happening since it's a tale as old as time when it comes to female streamers.

No. 331776

>>331772
She does play into it sometimes, but 95% of her streams, especially when she started, she is just a normal young woman. She also used to say she doesn't understand why people see her as a mommy type when she herself feels like she wouldn't fit that role. She's also made content making fun of people who call her mommy. Yes she makes fanservicey ASMR, but they used to all be scripted, self contained stories, it was mostly the fans that wanted more of the yandere mommy stuff. No excuse for the cow thing though, I personally didn't mind it that much at first and thought it was cute, but then of course the fans spinned it into a nonstop horny fanart fest so non-fans will constantly associate her with horny cow fanart instead of minescraft speedruns and spore shitposting.

Actually, who is everybody's favorite from each Hololive English gen? For me:

Myth at debut: Amelia, she just seemed cute and I liked her game choices. Got tired of her content quickly, especially as I really dislike "your mom" jokes.
Currently: Kiara. She really grew on me. I'm not an active viewer of any Myth members, but the consistent effort and passion she has put into her role really won me over. Calli is a close runner up for how much she has grown as a vtuber and contributed to Hololive as a brand. Her music may not be for me, but Hololive is definitely thenplace for her.

Council at debut: Sana, because she was actually friend of a friend in her PL and I was rooting for her to succeed. She brought a certain earnest wholesomeness, and I was sad to see her graduate, but I understand why it didn't work out and think it's for the best.
Currently: Nobody in particularm although I don't hate anybody either. They've been sort of a slowburn gen for me where I like seeing them plug along but don't get super hyped for them. If I had to watch anybody it'd probably be Fauna. Mumei's recent song made me cry.

Advent at debut: FuwaMoco hands down, I love them and still do but I just am not that compelled to watch most of their content. I'm excited to see them go far, though, and their morning show is a nice pick me up for me.
Currently: Surprisingly Shiori, despite her being my least favorite at debut. I just find myself gravitating to her choices in stream content more often then not and she's my most watched Holo member these days. I do not interact with her fanbase, just as I do not interact with vtuber fanbases as a whole, and will continue to practice this aversion based on recent comments in the thread.

Feel free to do for any other branch of Holo as well, I'm just cutting it here because it'll get too long otherwise.

>>331787 following what other Nona said
Myth at debut: Ina, she was the one whose design stranded out the most. Very chill and friendly girl, not a fan of her game choices but I listen to her zatsus from time to time.
Currently: Kiara. Not my oshi by any means by I find it endearing how much she tryhards being an idol, it's nice to see there's still people in this company that just don't do it for the sake of getting their paycheck.


Council at debut: Nobody. I don't hate any of the girls but it took me a while to get an interest in them.
Currently: Mumei. Partially because of her PL and the nostalgia I have for it, when she talked about wanting to join hololive because she wanted to make female friends and her social anxiety I couldn't help but relate to her, it's dumb, sure, but I really treasure her. I also love Fauna, at first I avoided her because of her fanbase but her game choices stood up the most for me… Anyone should try to give her a try, if you look past the gfe asmrs you will find someone with a very intelligent sense of humor.

Advent at debut: Shiori. I thought she'd be a cool addition to hololive because of her husbando taste and her literature choices but it's obvious she doesn't have any idea of what she's saying.
Currently: Nerissa. Perhaps not a lot of people might like her because yeah she's kinda coomerish but I can't help but admire her, she almost cried druing karaoke because of some issues regarding audio. Another idol enjoyer just like Kanata and Kiara!
I could probably go more in-depth with holoJP but I don't want to ruin the thread with my idol/Holo spergout.

ayrt here it goes nonnie
>Gen 0
Suisei and Miko. Originally I avoided Miko's solo content because of her voice but over time I've grown fond of her silly antics, her due with Suisei is so adorable and you can just tell they enjoy hanging out with each other beyond simple business! Suisei started at the bate bottom and I can't help but admire her, she's so funny and always tries to help the girls when they're in a bad place.
>Gen 1
Not much was done to foster a group identity tbh.Even so, I could say that my faves are Aki and FBK, I admire the effort Aki has even knowing that her PL is married, unfortunately many of her talents are something that not many would see on stream which is sad because I would seriously love it if more people had her appreciated. Fubuki is a straight-to-the-point entertainer, although her character is a fox girl in her early 20s but her game choices tend to be old games, I usually see her in other holomems' chats.
>Gen 2
Aqua-tan! a bit of a gap Moe tbh she's a competition freak with no hesitation to beat others but also a rather socially anxious and clumsy girl, I am so glad she has grown of her cocoon and has decided to interact more with others.
>GAMERS
I'm very fond of everyone in this group but I'd say the closest thing to an oshi would be Korine and Mio. Mío has a maternal energy and is always willing to help other girls, I usually try catching up with her morning Mío streams; Korine is a ball of sunshine and I don't usually need to pay a lot of attention to what she's doing since her commentary is quite good.
>Gen 4
My personal favorite generation! I'd say most of the members are pretty charismatic and offer a lot of funny moments even with the departure of Rushia. I did use to sort of cling to her because I thought she was just playing a character and the whole menhera thing was just a schtick kek. My oshi is Marine, I know a lot of peeps might have a negative outlook of her because clippers don't usually give justice to her content, she's someone whose passionate about internet culture, a lot of people misinterpret her burikko kayfabe and will genuinely think she behaves like that kek there's a lot of passion in her zatsu and projects.

samefagging
>Gen 4
They are a particularly close knit gen who often treat each other like family.
Kanata is a girl with a somewhat clumsy and awkward body language but she is nonetheless someone who is passionate about her work as an idol and she doesn't just do it for the simple fact of getting her paycheck. Watame is someone with a lot of empathy and I can't help but see her as a little sister to me, I cried when I saw the recent live concert, she is cute and her Japanese is simple. It saddens me that the jp scrotes have made Towa feel ashamed of her nasal voice, I find her somewhat uncomfortable and sometimes I wish she would stop paying so much attention to those types of people because I see her as someone I look up to.
>Gen 5
Nothing against any of the girls but imo it's probably the most forgettable gen. Lamy is cute and sexy, I often find myself listening to her ASMRs when I have trouble sleeping, she's probably the one with the most underrated chat interactions and banters. Occasionally, I find myself to be playing alongside her fps streams but I do tune in for the more laid-back streams, couldn't help but mourn along her when she lost the SF6 tournament she put so much effort and practice. Nenechi is very funny, she does kind of pander to scrotes but it's more in the sense of getting pay-pigs but outside that she's fine.
>Gen 5
My second favorite generation. Lui reminds me of those ladies that participate on theater. she is something of a big sister to the rest of HoloX, and even jokes about her being intended to be a older-sister type (thought don't be fooled, she's a bit of an eccentric woman kek). Iroha seems to be popular with japanese women because I see a lot of girls in my timeline with itabags and shrines dedicated to her. Haven't watched much of her but by my first impressions she seems to be dorky and a shrinking violet so I guess that's why she has a "she's just like me fr fr" to them kek. Chloe is my kamioshi! I found it amusing how open she was to wanting money and talking about her BL fetish tastes, it's the perfect mixture between being cute, sexy and snarky though to some nonas her gfe can be a turn off but it's not like she does that on all streams.

I was really rooting for Nerissa, her first stream was so fun but it's been sad to see her coomerfication (kek). I had the same feelings of Bijou, I remember showing up to one of her Hitman streams and she was just screaming BALLS BALLS DO YOU WANT TO TASTE MY BALLS??? and I instantly unsubbed.

Myth at Debut: Ina or Mori, since I was drawn to their designs the most. I still they're great, and definitely talented, but I hardly watch them stream.
Currently: Pleasantly surprised to see others mentioning Kiara. At first, I didn't know much about her, besides a little bit about her pl. After seeing some posts from anons dedicated to shitting on her, I decided to watch her streams myself to make my own judgment. I easily was drawn to her personality, and really appreciated how communicative and kind she is with her fans. She always works hard, and I admire her greatly. I consider her my oshi, and although I don't watch vtubers as often as I used to, I still support her when I can in streams and with merch.

Council at Debut: I thought Bae or Kronii would definitely be my favorite. Never ended up watching her much after though.
Currently: I do try to keep up with Mumei's streams now and then. I love her design, and think she's cute. I wanted to get into Fauna but her voice filtered me personally, as I don't really like listening to high pitched voices/prefer her "deep" voice which is probably closer to how she sounds irl I think (I know Moom's voice is higher pitched as well but it doesn't bother me for some reason.)

Advent at Debut: Nerissa, and potentially Fuwawa and Mococo. I did like Bijou's scuffed powerpoint debut as well, thought it was really funny and clever. I felt completely disappointed by Shiori for various reasons. I love her model's design but that's about it.
Currently: Nerissa, I know she does coomer pandering here and there which isn't my favorite lol. But I love her voice, and her singing is gorgeous. I have a lot of fun in her streams, and loved her chemistry with Kiara in their minecraft collab. I think it's cute how supportive she was for Kiara with her pl on Kiara's older videos.

As for Holostars EN, I'll just say that my favorites were initially Axel and Vesper. Still think Axel is pretty great, and I'm honestly a fan of everyone in Tempus right now, especially Hakka, Shinri, and Bettel.

Koreans have a big issue with being overly patriotic to the point that when someone states an objective fact about their country that could be taken negatively , they get viscerally angry.
Even if they did genuinely take it as an insult, it’s painfully obvious Kyo didn’t meant it that way, threatening him is crazy.
The craziest part about it is that a lot of Koreans will say objectively worse shit about other countries and their people and think it’s ok. Because this large amount of patriotism has lead Koreans to being incredibly xenophobic.
I mean look at the reason the WEBTOON “get schooled” was taken down off English platforms.

Mysta bought two houses with a fuck ton of property, Ren and Uki funded animated music videos out of pocket, and Scarle was able to hire a fuck ton of great artists and animators for her recent outfit debut, and the talents are able to do a bunch of other things with the money they get from the company. 2% is a meme, but I do agree that the communication between management and talents is fucking garbage because there is no reason as to why projects should be cancelled left and right with little reason. At the same time I think the management is so shit because Nijisanji really only cares about their JP branch and they have entirely different perms for each branch, which is why you’ll often see one JP streamer play a game while one on the EN side will say they have no perms for it.

Maybe I missed something but from the og vid he had a pretty appropriate response to ennas impression that was obviously gonna be taken as racist whether he said something or not. Enna fans acted like he went on a hate tirade calling her evil and racist or something, when all he did was tell her the obvious.
Like I can’t blame him for his reaction, if he had said nothing or just awkwardly laughed it would’ve looked bad on his part.

Not gonna look up who this tuber is but 99% chance their streams are boring or mid-tier at best despite them being 'hardworking' or streaming x hours a week for x number of months.
Also 90%+ chance their 'talents' are something like drawing (at the level of an 8th grader in an anime club), gaming (duh), and something that doesn't really have a role in streaming, like cosplay or candlemaking or some shit.
Not trying to be mean, they might be a very sweet and hardworking person. Also this isn't aimed at this particular person, but at most indies who have this attitude. Indie vtubers need to realize that 90%+ of them aren't cut out for corporate vtubing lifestyle, and out of those 10% who make it into some form of a corpo, only maybe like 10% of those will make a livable wage.

What happened with Magni and Vesper was unfortunate, but I blame them and not cover for it. While they were cooperative, they were good contributors to Holostars… In both their cases, seeemd like they crashed and burned themselves.
Tangent, but with this it does seem like Cover's stated intention of ramping up debut output starting with Advent was true. Wonder if we can expect to see new Holo ID and JP gens within the next year as well, unless ReGloss counted as the new debut gen for JP overall despite being a new branch.

He had a patreon where he made sexual audios acting out characters from MHA and Genshin (afaik). He was a tame vtuber when he streamed so he was always drawing a line between himself and the "side work" he had on patreon but most of his audience found him via those audios anyway.

i feel like we get this question every thread. if you're not the same anon asking you can try to find some of the vtubers mentioned in the past threads. this place is nijisanji/hololive central though so most you'll already know but there were a few lesser familiar indies being mentioned you could find. i remember seeing some interesting clips from the indonesian, chinese, malaysian, and korean sides but im not a youtube fan beyond seeing clips, so i didn't note their names. since you seem to be into japanese, some KR nijisanji side can speak japanese too IIRC. their collab clips were fun.

he said he saw the design and liked it, but he commissioned someone else to make the design have a few changes. still disrespectful to the original artist because he could have commissioned them in the first place and just ask for the changes to them and avoid the drama. if he was going to commission someone else and keep most of the other design, then at least say it was inspired by the original artist too. like there isn't a rule where you can only credit one artist and you don't have to break 3 fingers just to credit someone.

Oh that's awful. He even admitted it. The og design is cuter so perhaps the commissioned artist is a friend he wanted to give work to lol. If he wanted those tiny changes he could ask the og artist to do it. I wouldn't expect this from an inoffensive and careful streamer like him. Just checked his twitter and I can't tell if he's just panicking or he got into trouble with management (hence the suspension).

i dont get his thought process, was he seriously not going to credit the og artist at all if no one caught him? its not like he made a mistake he wasnt aware of or only referenced a generic axolotl that had no relations to his brand, he knew someone else made the design intending it to be wilsoneer and intentionally got someone else to redraw it and chose not to credit the og artist.

After seeing the two Armis collabs so far, like others I do think Rex seems notably better when at least one other person is around. Like his bratty yelling shounen MC thing has something to get softened with instead of bouncing around so sharply and very loudly off the walls. I'm still really liking Ruze a lot, I feel like he has pretty detailed and solid convictions behind his opinions on various things and media compared to several other male vtubers I've given a try. Goldbullet I wouldn't usually think is my type of vtuber but he's been surprisingly charming with his game commentary or reactions. Octavio I haven't been able to catch up with yet to listen more from him past the debut, but he has a good voice and some good moments too in the collabs. I don't know if I'll end up looking much at Armis besides following Ruze and whenever they have collabs with either each other or tempus/holostars but I can see the reasoning behind why they were picked, even Rex

artists were underselling themselves with their commission rates, but i think ai art has made people disregard an artist's value more. because he's from a big company and has a bigger fanbase willing to draw for him, maybe that was all the more reason to undervalue them and treat them as disposable and interchangeable.

No. 338182

>>338165

it disturbs me that he intentionally went out of his way to get a(noticeably bigger followed) artist to make basically 0 changes to it though. Like why not dm the og artist? Why go out of your way to get another artist to make you the exact same thing?

It just disturbs me that this is being treated like an innocent mistake when he had to go out of his way to save the og art, seek out another artist, discuss with this artist to change basically nothing, and post said art shouting out the new artist all the while knowing that someone else came up with the entire design.

Also really weird of that other artist to basically act as if they came up with the entire design also knowing they referenced almost all of it from someone else.

the way you're putting it makes sense. i assumed he was an indie before anycolor, so i thought he would have the idea to support smaller artists and appreciate his fan artists. i want to believe that he will learn from this. i want to think the other artist didn't know, if their bio that says "do not edit, trace or steal" is anything to go by, but i don't have an account to see how they're handling it. it was funny seeing some people reach to defend it and go "b-but it's not plagiarism because the eyes are bigger!"

I agree that he's not for everybody but he's chill and I like having his streams as background noise when I do other things.

Screenshots from drive imply that all parties are kinda milky, imo.

Xandu constantly does this thing. “Call. Now.” as if trying to avoid giving her anything written to screenshot.

Lollia blamed the other girl instead of just dumping him.

Other girl started out of the conflict, supposedly. But they got together pretty quickly later and there's at least some overlap between Lollia/Xandu screwing and relationship with the other girl.

His friends, “He suffered, she should too cz she blacklisted us.”

Her friends, “Yeah she exaggerated but you ain't clean. But let's all find healing.”

There's other stuff but this is the tldr

IMO, he's like Fedmyster but smart and faster than the girl.

He also does this thing in certain screenshots where she's trying to talk to him via text and he's going “Call. Now.” Looks like they had some weird BDSM adjacent kink going but he used it to get his way.

Why would a person who’s made a whole entire sadistic loli persona of herself, has a significant lolicon fanbase, and is a lolicon herself make an anti-lolicon song? I genuinely think you’re misunderstanding, but if you knew the trope, you’d know the song is celebrating both it and lolicons, and that’s why people are disgusted with it. There wouldn’t be an outrage over the song from people who hate lolicon culture if it was.

Samefag. There’s also no reason to be doing the “It’s fiction” song and dance, the argument that lolicons use to say that being a lolicon isn’t actually bad, either like she does in this video if it was meant to be a anti-loli song. The lyrics are full of inside jokes that Ui has with her audience, including the aforementioned Ui-beam. I wish someone would make an actual anti-loli song and have it go popular, but this one isn’t that.

right near the end, like i said in my og post she's holding a "safety buzzer". gross so spoilered: it's a pretty common trend in mesugaki works where the loli taunts the adult male with her safety buzzer before getting raped

>>339448
kek honestly i normally don't care about loli when it's something extremely far from reality (like the monogatari vampire – shinobu or whatever), but this is a little too realistic. i mean yes it's cutesy and silly but there are actually young girls out there using safety buzzers, there aren't any vampires though

You do not watch Shigure Ui, she's been making tongue in cheek jokes about hating lolishit while also pandering to lolicons for years. Her personal preference actually leans to middle-high school age girls, but she's really far from condemning lolicons. Loli God's Requiem being a thinky veiled mesugaki anthem is extremely on brand for her.

Retards that live on that page downvote or upvote you based on keywords they see and everyone follows suit, the same exact post that everyone agreed with can be downvoted to hell two pages later because the first to see it downvoted. Classic twitter behaviour of following what everyone else is saying rather than reading, understanding and forming an opinion yourself lol.

Terrible example, Flayon is a coomer that trannybaits a lot, he's way more unbearable than most of the girls, same goes to a lot of male vtubers that can't hide their moid tendencies.

He's tolerable because after milking Holobros with coomer games he comes back home doing bfe. He shows his mature side often in normal streams and I know he's handsome irl so I appreciate his bfe more than retard next door that has an existential crisis every week because his only skill is cumming on stream. He's ok on a male vtuber scale and when I get off my delusion that I could bag this guy and turn him into a proper man, I can admit Flayon being one of the mature maletubers just shows how miserable female viewers are. Same thing with Fulgur, he doesn't do bfe but he's the fudanshi rep that reminds me how much better a friend/boyfriend experience a guy with a properly developed brain could give us. Unfortunately those few guys don't become vtubers or streamers at all. I'd like discussing female vtubers if it didn't always circle back to retards admitting they can stand listening to fuwamomospeak.

I haven't personally watched any Flayon streams, but I did get this clip recommended to me, where he says that even if he's feminine, he doesn't wanna be called a girl and that he's not a girl.
I took that as him lightly laying down a boundary that he doesn't wanna be viewed as a TIF despite seeming small or cute?
I could see TIFs or TIMs targeting him because he does seem a bit 'feminine'.

I've seen some anons change their feelings on her because they think her accent is fake, but I wonder if she might be a mixed woman living in Russia or somewhere, hence still speaking Japanese while having some kind of euro accent.

AYRT maybe you should consider that we can have multiple discussions at once. Some of us like female vtubers of actual quality and enjoy discussing them with other women in a relatively guaranteed tranny-free space. And most of the negative male chuuba feedback here comes from the male chuubas in question being annoying coomers like your picrel or making retarded brand decisions like Yu Q Wilson and Vox. We've had plenty of posts postively shilling male chuubas like Doppio, GB, and Ruze ITT alone so it's not like we never talk about them. I don't really understand how Flayon is somehow better than FWMC in your eyes.
If you think you have interesting discussion to present, then post it.

4chan's preoccupation with Gura not streaming is so funny and sad to me. From the way they doompost, you'd think that Gura was a girlfriend of 5 years who cheated on them with their brother or something.
I've never been a Gura fan, but I gotta assume she's some combination of sad, anxious, or burnt out about trying to entertain 1,000,000 manchildren. She's probably sitting on enough wealth to buy whatever she wants, but she probably doesn't even want that much as a NEET. I don't think there's some secret illness or project in the works, she's probably just bored and tired.

It's basically as you said– she stated herself in her recent Sendai stream that she hasn't been streaming because she's burnt out (along with the time sink of having moved to Japan this year).
I honestly think she was just never the type who'd have wanted to be the face of Holo in the west to begin with. When you look at the personalities of Myth, it makes sense that Calli and Kiara are the ones still charging full force while the other three have had to step back a lot at various points for their wellbeing.

NTA but are you talking about nyfco? Nyfco has been full of kids and ESLs since the day Luxiem debuted. Almost the whole entirety of their fans back in the day came from TikTok and Twitter, and being newcomers to the community they’d look up “Mysta real face” or something and ended up there. They’d make TikToks and twitter threads “exposing” their past lives and calling them “problematic” for them and whatnot. Sometimes Mysta’s or Vox’s Chinese fans would raid their respective pages whenever they got mad at either of them and post a bunch of nonsensical hate messages and mass downvote any comment saying “Taiwan #1” or talking about Tiananmen Square (which was done in retaliation to their spamming) and they really haven’t left since. A good deal of female vtuber fans in general are SEA or Chinese, so the English second language thing has always been there. If there’s a recent uptick of that in other pages though, it’s probably because either the Vox fans or the Mysta fans that left decided to become Tempus fans. But in general, Tempus’s pages always had those types of people roaming them, especially Axel’s due to the timezone he streams in. But I guess there’s more nowadays due to a shift in fanbase and people finding new interest in ARMIS maybe.

Gura just became too popular too fast. That's it. She never developed the necessary grind mindset to make it as a vtuber, so when she struck gold at the very beginning it came to bite her in the ass later with time. This is in contrast to someone like Kiara or even Mori (whom I despise) who knew what it's like to struggle with their careers and so on way before they became vtubers. They knew how to handle pressure, expectations and their own menhera. Gura did not. And she will be totally irrelevant in the near future, though fondly remembered. At her peak she was beyond doubt the best vtuber and nobody will ever be as good as her.

Also seeing some predictable salt that the boys haven't gotten outfits yet, but IDK what people were expecting. OFC the girls will get their outfits? Personally, I really have my fingers crossed for summer outfits as I tend to enjoy those most from the Stars side. I still remember losing it live at how cute Miyabi's was.

>stars outfits
Magni and Vesper mentioned that Axel and Altare "sacrificed" a lot for their redesigns, then left the company a week after their redesigns. I think most of the salt comes from the fact that they sacrificed HQ outfit budget for Magni's eye surgery and Vesper's entire new model. I agree with you about summer outfits, I hope Tempus gets that as their first too despite everything.

Oddly, I'm seeing hate directed at management and resentment towards the girls for this, not MagNoir. There are still a large chunk of fans who refuse to believe the pair voluntarily left, insisting that they were shadow terminated and the lack of outfits is further punishment towards the branch for their departure after a big resource sink.

ntayrt, and sorry for sperging
But from watching corpo and indie vtubers, it's kind of hilarious to realize most of them don't have any actual life experiences aside from e-begging. You can tell most have never had a real-life job, even a part-time one, or gone to any form of higher education.
>2-view indie vtubers with boring personalities and no interesting hobbies like singing, art, or zatsudan: "Waah! Why won't Hololive hire me!"
>corpo vtubers getting burnt out and struggling to send a single tweet or schedule 1 stream a week
>people like Sayu getting hired to literally play vidya a few hours a week, then getting fired for an inability to behave and communicate in a semi-professional manner
Like I do have some sympathy for the fact that most corpo vtubers probably have insane stalkers and fans, and have to fight over permissions and such. But if I could work for a big corpo, I'd sit there and stream Minecraft for 20 hours a week or whatever with a smile and collect my 6 figure paycheck. It's not that hard.

nta but Oh god, you’re right. With how insane Nintendo is about perms too, they would’ve taken them away from the JP branch too. Imagine Sasaki graduating a second time because of no Nintendo perms… The whole thing about Sayu being held up as some martyr of Nijisanji pretty retarded, especially since she’s shown whats she’s really about so many times since she’s left the company. Nijisanji isn’t great and Cover Corporation isn’t either, none of these corporations are anyone’s friend. It’s exhausting, though, when there are egregious instances of Vtuber company malpractice not even being talked about in favor of bringing up Sayu getting terminated for the 100th time, like
>AkioAir hiring an underaged teenager and all their talents leaving because they were tired of the company’s shit
>Wactor doxxing and threatening talents (one got her whole real name plastered on an announcement from the company about her) and presumably firing every vtuber they had employed since none of them stream anymore among other things
>Tsundereia vtubers having to package each piece of their merch by themselves instead of it being handled by an outside company then having the bomb drop on them out of nowhere that their company doesn’t exist anymore
>AuroraLiveVR just having a bunch of people leave and expose how bad it was working at the company
There’s a bunch of fucked up shit going on in these companies that nobody even really bothers to translate or talk about either and I get that since Niji is big, any microdrama they have gets clicks, but god damn, I feel like no one really cares to expose true terrible companies outside of whatever contributes to stupid fanwars. It reminds me of Kpop fanbase wars.

I'm genuinely getting tired of people blindly blaming the corpos for everything that goes wrong with a chuuba and then taking the moral highground of fighting an evil, callous business. It occurs so often in situations where theres overwhelming evidence against the person in question, but people instead concerningly choose to ignore facts in favor of a script of anticapitalist justice or something. Like good grief, you cannot be this retarded– form actual opinions for once instead of what your own paranoia and Twitter tell you to believe.
>>340924

Yeah, I hate to sound like a boomer or someshit, but you're absolutely right. All of the best chuubas worthy of actual respect IMO tend to be those who have actually grinded through tough circumstances for their dream.

But I guess Nijinsaji EN really knows how to chose them. Sonny (faking/lying about dying/terminal illness), Vox (fake? vomiting/fake therapist session and mental breakdown on stream), Ike (an abuser with a pattern, Kyo (racist against Asians and use of Blaccent), and Zaoin (a complete mess on her own).

TSB Holoniji Apex custom winners
>1st Regular game: VAC (Aster Vezalius Claude - NijiEN)
>2nd Melee only: ERM (Maria Elira Ren - NijiEN)
>3rd Regular: TSB (Axel Selen Altare - StarsEN & NijiEN)
>4th Sniper only: Villain team (Koyanagi Rou, Hibachi Mana, Hoshirube Sho - NijiJP heroes)
>5th Regular: TSB again
>6th Hide and seek (TSB hunt others): Axel died to ring but the other two ended up hunting all others, second place/last standing was Reimu

Notable moments:
>in the 2nd game TSB lived in final ring by driving in circles with a car high enough that they couldn't be punched
>Villain team (NijiJP heroes) won after one of them disconnected in the final ring and his teammates had to punch him into position
I don't know anything about Apex so correct me or add on other moments, I couldn't catch up with most of the teams/rounds.

It was so fun, the meme rounds and nerfing winners to keep it dynamic were good ideas. I enjoyed watching my oshi even though I don't like FPS streams. It's interesting to see Holoniji interactions.

Sometimes the popularity rankings of several different things aren't quite explainable totally in a logical way past the abstract "vibes" a company managed to catch with their fist out of the ether, plus the luck and timing. Niji may simply innately know what looks sleeker and on-trend for their male models as one of the factors. Honestly I've been enjoying both Jurard and Ruze a lot on several occasions with how they lean into their specific anime character roles (especially when together), since it that does feel rarer for the EN side of male vtubers to capture that AND get some kind of decent viewership plus fanbase with it like Doppio did

Sonny did it to escape TF2 community which are known to be as retardedly annoying as Chinese communities. Vox dated someone 2 years younger and retards stretched it out to be a bigger age gap. Ike's ex didn't have any evidence of anything other than normal couple fighting so there wasn't even anything he could defend himself from. There's milk brewing in front of our eyes but you're all bringing up shit nyfco solved right after they debuted.

Idk if you make your money/name/fame off some kind of parasocial relationship, and then lie about dying. Kinda can’t be surprised at what’s coming to you for the rest of your life when you trade one parasocial relationship for another.

NTAYRT, but the guy didn’t really trade off one parasocial relationship for another since the lie was made up in 2015 (before his family kicked him out for being a NEET) while he came back in early 2019 and was back to doing the same gameplay edit routine until 2022. You could even say that he came back to his channel to maintain his channel to get into Niji, but he didn’t think of joining until Bonnivier, his friend in NijiID, encouraged him to join and that guy debuted in 2020. Also, kek, the way you phrased it all made it seem like his content harbored a deep parasocial relationship with his audience while the guy just uploaded gameplay edits, mostly without his voice.
By the way, have you guys heard about Hana from NijiID making an alt vtuber account to upload sex audios and do fansly streams? I made a post about it a long time ago, when she was just doing regular streams on the channel, but I felt bad cause it seemed like she was genuinely mentally unstable with the whole using he/him pronouns thing. But now it’s public knowledge after getting blown up on twitter and she deleted the alt YouTube channel and privated the twitter and the fansly, so I guess it doesn’t matter anymore.

Sonny seems pretty normal from the clips I've seen, so maybe he was just an edgy teen.
Ike and Vox are just repeating I they were accused I early on. Ike with the ghosting, posting self harm stuff and clingy-ness and Vox with the non-con rp with no warning or consent. And true to their PLs, both of them went from shading their exes to their company (see: AR Live and COVID). Ike doesn't have anything to defend against cz HE accused his ex of a bunch of stuff when it's clear that he was definitely abusive as well (possibly more so). If you read the screenshots without looking for reasons why he's abused, it looks like he was meticulously avoiding leaving written messages.
Maybe Sony, to, will revert to his old self.
For Xsoleil, there were rumours that part of the reason Zaion was fired was because Hex complained and he was top earner in the wave at that point.

Maturing from faking your death is a pretty low bar to have. I just accept that any male vtuber is going to have some gross moid interests it'd be rare to find an otaku guy who hasn't ended up with gross porn tastes, I don't think that's something he's going to grow out of at almost 30 years old.

No. 342404

Just a lot of personal stuff, I find some of the voices and sounds he makes to be gross and his brand of positivity is a turn off because I find it difficult to trust (sorry, mentally ill kek)
Jurard grew on me in a group setting, I can't really handle him on his own but find him fun when he bounces off of others. Also he surpassed low expectations because he's grown a lot from the type of person I remember him being a few years back.
Octavio really is such a great pull for Holostars, I can't wait to see what he does here.

'Vtuber Awards' from the view point of ENVtubers and it's community don't really mean anything to me, so I didn't care to watch… but wouldn't it have better to restrict the nominees to solely ENVtubers? I get that they wanted to make a 'First-Of-It's-Kind' sort of thing and include everyone, but considering that the vast majority of English-speaking viewers are only able to watch JP Vtubers through clips, I don't think they'd be able to accurately vote based on anything substanial.

Besides, I feel that award shows should focus on a broad horizon of choices, not just the most popular or most known. The fact that Matara Kan (Nina's reincarnation) and Kuro Kurenai (Mysta's reincarnation) are nominated for something despite only being in the sphere (as their new personas) for two-three months immediately removes any merit this "Award Show" attempted to have.

No. 343058

>>343056
Tbf I think only like 2 JP VTubers won anything and there's supposed to be some international one by a different group hosted in Spring.

However Henya managed to win rising VTuber even though she's was very established before people made her retire for playing Hogwarts Legacy in her past life. Makes the categories seems like a mess.

I hate it but it should be like what the Oscars do. Get the top couple hundred creators in the industry to vote on things they like. As creators they should know the industry quite well and it won't be a most fans contest. Like Gura got best fanbase and she barely streams.

I don't have a problem with JP Vtubers winning anything (in fact, I think more should have), but the fact they were nominated and lost against something in the EN-sphere only because it was more popular. You mean to tell me that VSaikyo and Hololive's Sports Festival lost to… an Ironmouse subathon? Nijisanji Koshien, not even nominated? Kuzuha, the literal face of Nijisanji's gamers… lost to Selen? And why was Holocure even nominated for the game award…? Sure, it was popular, but the nomination spot could've easily went to a game that everyone's still actively playing, like Sutogura.

You're right, having those who are actually in the industry vote would definitely make this entire have actual, meaningful nominees and winners. As nice as it sounds though, I don't think anyone would really give a shit to do it. I know I wouldn't.

Like Filian not knowing how to say their names and usage of only the shittiest misrepresentative clips. They should have just kept it to twitch bc IDT they have any clue whats going on outside of it regardless of influence in the hobby

Anyways, personal thoughts:
I'm glad Selen won things but she should have won in some other category, not the ones she won in. It just made Niji look worse.
Fauna is my oshi but she did not deserve the ASMR award. At the same time I'll take it because Vox losing is always funny even if he doesn't care about his ASMR anymore.
Pippa should have won most chaotic. It would have been a backhanded win, like Gura's fanbase win, but still. It's true even if it's the result of mental unwellness.
There should have been more categories based on type of games played, especially when gaming makes up such a huge chunk of vtuber activities. Like best variety gamer would be very different than best gamer overall or best FPS gamer.
Also, the fashionista award was stupid. Isn't that just about whoever has enough money to cycle through outfits so often they become meaningless?

I mean, the nominations for FPS vtubers weren’t really good from the start. Botan, Shu, Selen, and Froot. They could’ve picked better people for the category to begin with, and Selen winning in the Gamer category over Kuzuha makes as much sense as Mori winning for the musician category over Suisei or Ironmouse winning vtuber of the year over Salome or Pekora. This was a western-centric event with western fans voting, so you’ll get wins that are more popular with the western crowd. Plus there’s a bunch of questioning going on for the event entirely and some people even urging Cover to sue everyone involved in putting it together. Does any of this really matter, though? It’s some random award show that has fansly promo all over it, mispronunciation of names, scuff on top of scuff, and random usage of AI art where it didn’t need to be used. It has less credibility than even the Streamy Awards and just a little more credibility than the random polls you see thrown into 4chan threads, so seeing people treat it like their oshis are getting snubbed of Grammys or Oscars awards or something is pretty funny.

No. 343098

Out of the nominees she did have the most claim to the title since it wasn't like a JPtuber like Kuzuha was ever going to win, yeah, but I'm considering the nominations themselves to be why this is a joke lol

I started watched Ame after a long time of not really watching vtubers. Tbh, I still like her. 4chan is usually pretty angry at her, because she seems like she's capable of creative things but has been burnt out for a long time, PLUS the 'work on yourself' thing.
But tbh, I like her, even though she's not a content and creativity factory like Kiara and Mori right now. She just seems like a chill gamer girl who needs some time to relax, and is tired of everyone expecting her to come up with something new constantly.

I'm going to sound like an autistic schizo, but shit like that is why I've almost completely given up on oshi'ing or even watching male vtubers.

Hell, some will outright tell you how much they hate you, like Kuro and Vox, and still expect you to drop money for them. The point of vtubers is to escape reality, but for some reason male want to be liked because of their personality, which is ironically garbage.

A good oshi candidate for someone like me who's tired of my old oshis breaking into menhera arcs where they can no longer hide their coomer tendencies and lack of any professional job experience before finding this outlet to live out their anime harem protagonist dreams. He's sweet and interactive with his chat. EU-friendly-ish time slots and even when I miss it most of his streams are 1-3 hours so it's easy to catch up. Already liked his excitement for streaming but these made me like him more.

The accent. A lot of people love that. I give you Kuro, Rin and Vox. You know who they are. I think they all reach 1 million pretty early, but Rin did it via shorts.
Plus, there's a lot of women who see Mysta's stuff as, “I like hearing about that stuff from a male perspective.”
I think the bit about zero gag reflex was famous. Those things appeal a lot to clippers etc.
Tldr: people who like coomer behaviour and mostly see clips.
(BTW: I heard someone on nyfco say he's not that bad outside of the clips.)
IMO, the clips reflect on the clippers' mentality and that decides the community the streamers will eventually attract. Idk how coomer he was in general, but the clippers primarily liked that part of him.

Totally not related but how much do non-Bettel stars make anyway? Niji has people moving out in the first few months or being the sole breadwinner for their families but as far as I can tell most Stars are living with family or roommates.

I assumed it was more about them (Niji) being young and wanting to leave overbearing Asian families and Stars choosing to live with others (cz even Bettel does, afaik. Doesn't he live with his brother?)
Kyo moved back home. I assumed his condition required more help than expected.

Part of it is that Niji, while having shit numbers these days, does A LOT better on the sponsorship front whuch does help pad income a little. It's hard to say how much the various StarsEN members make, but Shinri, the worst performing member of Tempus, still has roommates despite stating several times that he'd like to live alone and that it would benefit his streams, so at least one guy isn't making ends meet as well as he'd want to.

Bettel lives with his brother, yeah. He said he did consider living alone at one point but decided it would be saner not to, more because he wouldn't cope well on his own as opposed to because it's financially necessary.

The one I've seen the most is other pooners coming into the page all excited with their ideas that Rio must be a TiF who is for some reason doing everything he can to hide what he is. People will tell them that Rio isn't, and that Rio has even said he's been harrassed in the past for his feminine voice despite being male, and they'll still come up with insane theories about how he could still be trans but going to extra lengths to hide it with an elaborate story. It's ridiculous.
I've also seen Uyu's stories of being confused about his high voice and trying to maintain it when he hit puberty as "proof" of him being trans, when he explicitly stated that his mom supportively thinking he was trans was what gave him a reality check.
Today we have somebody asking if Ruze is trans because of his interests and PL.
In every case, there's always somebody subtly coming in and talking about how this kind of thinking is regressive/people should be able to present however regardless of their sex without being trans, etc. basic GC talking points without directly using alarming terminology. I'm hoping it peaks some people because it does get a surprising amount of support and Cover's fandom isn't as rabidly TRA as Niji's is.

One of the en stars referred to Rio as "they" while he referred to others as "he" so he might be a tif but why would a girl get bullied for having a high voice? I think he just has unfortunate genes/hormone problems. On that topic it seems to be a trend among vtubers to refer to people as "they" randomly despite knowing their gender. It's awkward and weird when they randomly switch pronouns, Bettel does this a lot.

No. 344193

Was it one of the ENstars? I thought it was Ame, and mostly because she wasn't familiar with him.
And yeah, the comments on that vid are so delusional when he was clearly turned off by the line of thinking that he might be trans and critical of his own previous actions.
>>344188
That's not a reason to justify people insisting that he's possibly trans for their own gratification against his own stated trauma from being harrassed over his voice.
He's not the only case of a male vtuber with a highly GNC voice, either, but he gets these schizos because he has good opsec and is the only StarsJP that hasn't been doxxed. Mashiro from Nijisanji has had similar experiences with his voice, and his voice is his natural voice despite him being undeniably male when you see pictures and videos of him IRL.
This constant evaluation of whether you can clock somebody or not is just overall regressive, and a trend I really dislike in some terfy spaces. And it's not contributory to the discussion at hand.

If fan drama is relevant at all, I’m surprised no one has talked about the real insane fan named Horayo who was simultaneously an extremely parasocial fan artist while spending money sending hate superchats to Mysta almost everyday, and now does the same thing to Kuro. It got to the point where Mysta threatened legal action while still in Nijisanji and even had a private talk with her as Kuro, telling her to get her act together before he proceeds with suing her. She’s been going even harder nowadays after getting doxxed (by sending a public hate superchat that ended up getting tracked back to her own Steam account among other things) and I think she might get sued soon.
>Serially harasses Mysta/Kuro (spawning from jealousy over Mika and Mysta becoming friends during the Luxiem offcollab)
>Also harasses other Nijisanji streamers such as Mika, Kotoka, and other members of Luxiem
>Harasses other Mysta/Luxiem fans over completely unjustified reasons such as not liking them “the right way” such as clippers, fan artists, etc
>Created tons of Mysta/Kuro hate threads on the 4chan catalog highlighting out of context clips to spawn hate towards him while also complaining about the hate that he gets on Nijisanji threads (even complained about the hate he gets on this website once kek)
>Frequently blog posted about having a miserable life and no friends and self posted art from her own Twitter account (which is another thing that ended up getting her doxxed)
>Harasses Mysta around his graduation announcement time (something she might be possibly responsible for) on Twitter which leads to him responding to one of her tweets telling her to move on (picrel)
>Still is somehow a Kuro hater/fan when he debuts, still going on with the usual routine of making fanart and replying to every single one of his tweets on a hate account and her fanartist account
>Kuro gets a hate dono from her one day and says he knows what her main account is, which leads to her making tweets about how she wants to leave the internet and how regretful she is of her previous actions, which alerts other Kuro/Mysta fans of her Horayo identity
>Kuro mocks his haters on stream one day and she takes this as a slight towards her and goes on a full smear campaign to generate him hate by making malicious clips and spamming them under random fantweets and posting them on 4chan
>Has a “reborn” hate account now where she’s just talking to herself about how much she hates Mysta and telling random fans to “apologize” for being a fan of him

AYRT oh my god, are you me? I never got into Niji EN but I was big into ID and KR and the slow death of those branches made me so sad. It always felt like you never knew when your favorite would leave in KR, and after the third graduation of somebody I watched there (Shin Kiru), I just gave up, which was a shame since that's the only non-EN branch I can fluently understand. With the bullying and mismanagement, though, I get why they ended up as they did.
ID though? The way they killed a branch that absolutely thrived on its own and then further neutered it by merging it with JP was just sad. I was already gone by the time the mass graduations started happening, but each one was so sad.
I hate to turn my back on the group that brought me into all this, but I'm a lot happier with the stability Holo provides me as a fan. I was a StarsJP watcher convurrent to watching Niji for years, but after finding my Hololive EN oshi, I've been really content as a fan. Who do you watch now?
And yeah, kek, Mayuzumi's kayfabe was strong enough that it's pretty easy to divorce him from Yamien. And his troon shit never really came out with the character, unlike the way some other livers have slowly morphed their characters to their gender illness.

Mayuyu was my kamioshi for a long time. I didn't even care about him being a troon irl much at first, but it's pretty disappointing nonetheless. I do still miss him and wish he was still around in Nijisanji.

No. 344438

Yup, when it comes to english speaking fans I think that most people have a positive opinion of them and find it cool when their oshi gets to interact with them (like Sonny and Zali recently), but they don't exactly have a super big dedicated fanbase outside of Japan.
This is the case for Niji JP in general since most people can't understand japanese and it's not like Niji puts in much effort into advertising their JP branch overseas.

I've watched some translated clips and some of the edited yt content from Chronoir but ultimately despite wanting to learn japanese to be fluent one far off day, I have other things I want to learn or read about more. So english speaking vtubers are much easier to listen to and become familiar with while I'm doing other things like chores. It's still a little too bad that western audiences and vtubers in the 2 main corpos besides a few are so lukewarm or almost leery on the prominent kayfabe and character part of it, considering how much everything owes to past anime/manga/videogame characters and their creators plus voice actors

Just wondering, but for those of you who have a female kami oshi, what's your sexuality? I'm a lesbian, although I wouldn't say that I'm attracted to my oshi at all (even if I am to some of the other female chuubas I watch).

Does Cover even hire gendies to become vtubers in their company anyway? The only one I'm aware of is maybe Kronii's PL, who's apparently a "nb lesbian" or something like that. I'm a fan of livers from both Holo and Nijisanji, but something that I've noticed is that Anycolor is more lax on hiring vtubers to join their companies compared to Cover. They're more willing to hire menhera gendies like Yugo and Mayuzumi to join their companies, whereas for livers under Cover, the "wildest" they'll get is hiring bisexuals (Tempus Vanguard boys are a good example of this). In fact, it might be too risky on a business standpoint for Cover to hire TIM/TIFs, as the Holo streaming culture is "boys interact with boys only and girls interact with girls only"unless you're in ID or want the male fans to give you shit forever aka Mori kek.

Thanks for the input, sounds like there are plenty of straight girls amongst Hololive viewers. I saw somebody asserting that most of the women watching Holo were gay and was like… I know I'm gay but there's no way that's true. I think moids just project onto us the way they can't stay engaged with something they're not interested in sticking their dick into.

I've watched male streamers before, both vtubers and flesh streamers, but I've been burned too many times… It's like males can't be trusted to become popular online and not abuse it.

I hope you find your friends. And yeah, men are sus. It's funny cz before the whole crap with “colabbing with males good/bad”, I preferred women-only collabs (straight woman here). There was simply no line to cross with regards to yabai stuff. There's one with Kiara and Lui grabbing each other's boobs kek

NTA but it's in real life as well. Men just dislike their girlfriends having male friends. (I'm sure the reverse also happens, but I've just seen that more from men irl).
I think it's because a lot of guys actually befriend girls in relationships and wait like hyenas for a breakup. They think they have a chance as long as their oshi is single.
Another straight woman who likes both Hololive and Tempus. Preferably separately. I used to like Niji, and I noticed the hate towards female livers get stronger after interacting with, say, Luxiem.
I do think there's a lot more potential to be uncensored in women only collabs, but it's also funny while watching Niji girls just go for it and ignore the make presence entirely.

I feel like even that doesn’t make any sense as a reason because Nina has been featured in projects after she left like the Oto no naru o e cover and just recently Reimu’s original song. Plus they talk about Nina on stream so often you’d almost forget she left. Even Mysta, Yugo, and Zaion get talked about here and there in a completely positive light, so who knows what made them take down the cover. Plus, graduated talents have always been featured in projects on the JP side with that duet cover someone did with Mayuzumi’s vocals from streams put into Utau or the animations on Ibrahim’s channel.

No one should be dropping 10k for a model starting off. Common mistake streamers make is using the model as a crutch when they’re boring and don’t engage with viewers.

example of one of the cheaper 2D models pulled from booth to prove you don't need to go all out. each one has their terms of service rules, like some people are lax and okay with you using the model for commercial services whilst others are not okay with that so you might want to read the descriptions to make sure there's more to know than basic things like crediting them.

Sorry for incoming text wall, I'll try to answer all nonita's questions about vtubing.

>>345449
Here's my 2 answers if you're serious about getting a few hundred followers:
1. (Low cost) Try building a niche, and if you're on youtube, utilize using shorts or pre-edited videos. If you're just 'cute girl gaming', you'll probably eventually gather followers, but I think it could be beneficial to do something new - Do you speak multiple languages? Make 1 minute videos teaching words in that language. Are you really good at an obscure video game or unique hobby? Make some videos on that to attract other fans of the hobby. Singing, music, and art streams seem like they'll always do well if you have those skills!
2. (Potentially costs money) Commission some art and try to post it around with a cute caption, perhaps on r/virtualyoutubers or other websites. You can get cute, cheap art on Skeb. Maybe it feels more sleazy, but I think you can gather some people by showing off a cute model.

>>345456
I just try to warn myself, anything you say online, could potentially be linked to your real identity or workplace someday despite your best efforts. Try to not say anything that theoretically, you wouldn't want linked to yourself. Being an anime girl online is just cringe, but not a fire-able offense. Being an anime girl online and making race jokes is cringey AND potentially fire-able.

>>345460
Maybe you can start out by modding for yourself, or having a friend mod for you. Once you have 10+ viewers, you can ask around if anyone wants to mod for you. If someone's being downright a troll, just get rid of them. They're not worth the view or engagement. I think generally, people like if you greet them by username in your stream, and try to read at least a few comments as long as they're not derailing!

>>345515
Seems like you already got some good answers to this, but I'll just add that remember that chance of you being doxed, even if it's only .01%. I just try to say, "Worst case scenario, would this being linked to my professional identity be career-ending?"
I accidentally almost doxed myself a few times when I started streaming, but when you're a small, new vtuber, people are pretty forgiving imo.
Nothing wrong with starting out with a free model. But if you eventually decide you want your own model, there are some pretty good artists on Etsy who can do character design + art + rigging for $200 - 600 USD. Not too bad imo! Not Hololive-tier ofc, but I think there are some pretty cute ones, especially if you can go in with an idea of how you want to look, or even do your own rough sketch and have someone create the model for you.

Does your ideal length differ depending on if it's an action game like LoZ, JRPG like early FF, or a cozy game like Stardew?

I said faggot out loud on stream once, none of my viewers cared, but I did personalized myself as a major pick-me, all that happened was a regular clipped it and twitch gave me a warning. Most vtuber viewers don’t care if you market yourself as an edgelord, but if you want mass appeal, it would be more difficult. My viewers are typically well behaved and “LUL” at most what I say, none actually start “simping” at me romantically. >>345655 has great advice as well.(self promo, censor username next time)

I think starting with edited content could be a great way to grow your audience. If you use youtube, videos (not livestreams) can keep giving your channel long-term growth, whereas shorts and livestreams seem to have short-term growth. I've played some more obscure and cult following-type games that I thought no one would watch, but then gained followers from people later looking up gameplay footage. Alternatively, you could try something like livestreaming for a few hours, but trying to edit and clip your own content to make people more interested in the full stream?

Even though as Kaito he had to do streams with dono goals like allowing him to buy groceries, I feel like he needs to be less relevant. I saw this coming from him because I've seen it from friends irl before. One guy I was friends with came into money, then ended up living in a shed on someone's farm while working to pay off debts before becoming responsible.

Being in the vtuber community is pretty hilarious because you’ll see someone describe a situation (like you did) and then you see the actual context and it’s the most lukewarm shit ever.

I agree with you generally but when the woman who can't shut up about how Niji isn't a black company slides in with this bootlicking it IS annoying. Especially when she's asking somebody who's been in the company longer than her if she's done the most absolute basic things for a project ages in the making. It's obvious she saw a tweet that would reflect badly on Niji and ran in to do damage control.

Their debut dates are 3 months apart and Selen never worked on any covers until the end of 2023. I don’t think Millie being the cover pumping machine she is saying “oh that’s never happened before so that’s weird, did you get the clearance to upload it?” is her fighting for her life to defend the company. I thought she’d be fighting with the people in the replies or something but it’s just two tweets to Selen. Still don’t get why the cover is down, though. JP company perms are idiotic.

Blogpost but I'm an anon who's lucky enough to have a few thousand followers. I'm nothing amazing, but I guess I'm not trapped with having 0-2 ccv like a lot of indie tubers.
Jfc tho, I keep having random male and TIM vtubers reaching out to me for collabs. Like, ones who haven't even debuted or only have 80 followers. Female vtubers are smart enough to reach out to me just to say hi and get to know each other, and not even talk about collabs early on.
Not that everything is about numbers, or that I'm super exceptional. But if I've never heard of you, never seen your streaming, we haven't even had a conversation, no one likes you enough to follow you, why would I want to give you the time of day? I don't 100% buy into idol/GFE culture either, but I realize that streaming with random 0 view males is gonna be detrimental to my fanbase, if anything.
It goes without saying but reaching out to someone bigger than you just to be like 'wanna collab' comes off as desperate and clingy. If you really like them just say hi and visit their streams sometimes. See if they wanna chat about shared interests and form a natural friendship.

I haven't watched much Pomu, but I've seen her fans swear up and down that she was super loyal to Nijisanji and doing her best to care about the company, even though the Hololive talents are clearly happier. For example, Pomu puts the Niji logo in every thumbnail. If they scared off Pomu, who's presumably one of their most paid and most loyal female talents, I don't even know what to expect next. I have a feeling this is just the beginning, though.
I don't love Vshojo but tbh, at this point, the talents seem way happier there than at Niji. I can't blame anyone who goes to Vshojo at this point.

NTAYRT but I actually think most the mainstream vtuber avatars are fine. Most the hololive and niji models I've seen are perfectly acceptable. And if anything, the main complaints I have wouldn't be about the models being too sexy or coomerish, it'd be that some of them are overdesigned (Kiara's base outfit needs less hats and weapons.)
I don't even mind a model with a bit of sex appeal or booba. The only thing that really bothers me is loli characters clearly meant to loli-bait, or when the booba is ridiculously out of control, like they can't move 1 inch without the tits flapping everywhere, but that seems to be more of a twitch indie streamer problem than a mainstream corpo problem.
I just get the feeling the vtubers were made by anime enjoyers for anime enjoyers, so anyone who dislikes anime as a genre or aesthetic will have a tougher time enjoying vtubers imo.

Also, this might sound nitpicky, but I've seen a lot of vtubers with flat chests or loli models really play into the loli thing, which I find more despicable than playing a grown-ish woman with jiggly tits.
One of my least favorite vtuber tropes is the loli vtubers doing the 'uwuuu I look like a child irl too' thing. Like, on handcams, they'll be like, "omg you gaaaiz~ I know my hands are small, but I'm totes not a kid~" or "People always ask me where my parents are when I'm out in public…"
Idk if this sounds schizophrenic, and I could believe they're actual problems petite adult women face. But there's a lot of vtubers who play into the trope way too much, by constantly bringing up stories of being mistaken as a child. It's fetishizing. Vid related.
>omg gaizzz these are adult hands! They're so smol but they're adult hands! Quit annoying me by commenting on their size!

Tbh, both posters are stupid to me. I disagree with the idea that it's overcrowded with 'one singular horny idea'. If he dislikes female streamers, Niji and Holo clearly both offer mainstream male streamers. If he wants female streamers without no or minimal skin (no more than thighs or arms) showing, several mainstream ones are: Rosemi, Maria Marionette, Mumei, Kaela, Bijou. If he dislikes anime as an aesthetic, he might not enjoy most vtubing in its current state, but he should reframe to ask about non-anime aesthetic vtubers.
Reply is obviously too aggro and inflammatory, although I do agree a busty character doesn't immediately mean she's jerk off lewdbaiting material.

It seems more likely that it was another stealth suspension.
Man though, it's been a big mask off to see how fast a good chunk of Niji's fanbase turned on her once her situation became speculative bad PR for the company. I've seen a lot of Niji fans over the past couple weeks calling for her to graduate because this whole fiasco was the last straw for them after seeing her repeatedly express displeasure with management.

No. 347873

>>347868
I would buy Nijisanji's bullshit more if this wasn't a common occurrence for Selen. I know that she has BPD so maybe she is not the most easy member to work with, but it's a really bad look for the company to constantly hinder her projects. We also know that things behind the scenes are bad due to statements from Zaion (to be taken with a grain of salt), Mysta and Nina after they graduated. There's really no reason to support the company itself anymore and those who do are really just stupid.

No. 347875

>>347865
What's the point of all of that if you lose 15k because management fucked up telling you it wasn't actually allowed? And it's not the first time her projects have been fucked over either. I definitely think she thrives better in a corporation then as a solo indie vtuber, but at some point the setbacks are bigger than the advantages.

>>347873
There's so many signs that whatever little management they have for EN is absolutely useless. I know some of them are rrats but even people with just two working eyes can see that the main Niji branch has no clue how to properly manage their EN branch. The blatant favoritism for Luxiem doesn't help either (though that has been way less since Mysta decided to leave)

Everywhere I go… tribalism. Iketog? Tribalism. /vt/? Tribalism. /jp/? Tribalism. Twitter, Discord, even in Nijisanji clips… I can't even escape it here. I'm so tired. This forced numbers-focused Holo-Niji company wars drama was never a thing until the massive increase of popularity vtubing (more specifically, Holo, of which brought on the massive, unfortunate "unicorn" atmosphere we have now. Thanks Kson. Hope you go to Hell.) experienced in late 2019. Before that, everyone was kept contained in a single thread, and if you brought up some stupid shit like numbers you were rightfully shitted on. It was known that every company had it's faults, but everyone was still tight-knit because at the end of the day we shared the same hobby and vtubers would collab regardless of what opinions fans held. Now everything has reached borderline retarded kpop fan wars, and it even feels like this tribalism has leaked it's way into how each company and vtuber operates and interacts with one another. No1Curr, but I'm so tired of "rrats" (I hate this retarded term) by people who clearly only care about the drama and not the entertainers/entertainment.

It was her Reddit Meme Review as Coco that bridged the gap between the English speaking sphere with vtubers, that at the time was pretty much only accessible if you knew Japanese. She was a great influence in the mass, rapid spreading of it, but with the great influx of new viewers who knew nothing about the culture or viewer etiquette, everything that was built through the few years of its existence was reduced to rubble once it reached outside of Japan. That and the constant repetitive jokes reviewed and highlighted on there is what led to the popularization of one-note jokes like bong bong, booba, ara ara, etc. that are still prominently used til this day.

as for unicorns, that's much more on gamers-4th gen managers, but that's less of an issue unless all you care about is numbers; there's just a lot of schadenfraude in seeing people lie about being single or virgins and then have their paypigs find out
and clip-bait is part of every part of streaming, just there was a lot less stream and a lot more recorded and contained content back then

Is this parasocial behavior? I like watching people with low views because they feel more relatable to me and they have different vibes than someone with a huge amount of viewers. Even so, I feel like a parasocial creep thinking about how upset I am that he's interacting with that other streamer. I'm also a streamer, and I thought he would be cool to befriend, but I kind of don't want to break the barrier between seeing him as a vtuber and seeing him as an actual friend. Has anyone ever experienced this before?

You could try talking to her in the chat and potentially befriend her. I'm a lurker so I never experienced this but it feels like a nice chance to have a small chatting group.

Any tips on what I can do aesthetically/characterwise to avoid attracting weird moids in my fanbase without being too clashy with my voice? If I'm being honest, I have a very Rushia/FallenShadow (without the gross baby talk she leans hard into ofc) type voice that makes me sound like a fragile menhera or something and the men who are into them are the total opposite of what I want around me because I'm a man hating lesbian. But atthe same time, a big pet peeve of mine is when a chuuba's voice is a total mismatch with their model. Any creative nonnas have suggestions?

I agree with the nonnies about the EGL style and there’s lots of other things that you can do to not attract a lot of moids. Do you have any hobbies that might attract a female crowd? I know that women gravitates towards horror games but that’s just one example. There’s the lgbt route but there’s a risk of attracting trannies. Try researching indie vtubers who has the audience that you want and get to know what they like if that helps.

No. 348641

>>348543
Gothic lolita sounds super cute, look up Raden from Hololive (sorry if that's not 'EGL' for any lolita nonnies, I don't know all the subgenres of lolita.)
Also, don't underestimate how much you can control the vibe you give off. My model has a little bit of skin showing, just because that's my taste in fashion, but I've made it clear that I'm not a 'girlfriend experience' streamer and they can find that elsewhere. For the most part, people have been super respectful. You can get a few mods once you have more viewers.
Tbh, the main challenge I've been dealing with is random 1-views and undebuted males and furries dming me asking to collab.
#1, I don't even know you, at least say hi first (even though I'm going to ignore it) and
#2 collabing with random 0-view males and furries is going to be DETRIMENTAL to my growth

Apparently the tone and wording of the JP announcement clarified that this was an amicable separation agreed upon as the best way forward for both parties.

Don't know if we'll ever know what happened, but I'm happy to know it wasn't sour after such a long relationship.
It really is sad that she won'tbe able to able to have a proper graduation, though. Termination from contract breach is going to be what it is, but she was just talking about looking forward to her activities in Holo in the coming year on twitter not too long ago. Streaming, too.

Def menhera but if you're into that then you're in luck bc he does provide a lot of fanservice.
Inb4 I getblasted for shilling him: I don't watch him because I'm part of the majority that gets filtered by his… everything. But I still think he kinda gets an unfair hand from haters when he's a decent but severely awkward guy who's great for the 0.01% that can get into him

I like a lot of Hololive already, but I just want to broaden my horizons. I also really like Tenma.
It seems like there are some good streamers in Niji, but they've had way too much instability recently.

Really a great example of what an indie can do IMO over a corpo vtuber, which is why, over time, she's become the only indie I watch outside of my corpo oshis.

Seconding Amiya, I found out about here a few months back and have watched her since then.

And most of all, she's just wholesome and feel-good.

The general consensus was that he was being stupid and the fan was actually insane (she has a track record of overextrapolating meaning from simple interactions with other vtubers as well). She got banned from his chat and had a meltie about it, but that was enough action on the issue for most people to move on (although some still call him Groombullet kek).
I hope his issues stop at just being super cringe because Armis as a gen is great and we don't need another HQ situation where morale gets blasted for months because of one member's retardation.
