General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

Management definitely did something. Bloodborne is included in the list of games not copyrighted by FromSoft (it's Sony's property).
So it stands to assume they got permissions from Sony.
I stand corrected.

Is this the first game they've gone to Sony for? It's still weird they took so long.

Aside from the 2 speds always falling for @Scuttle's bait, I dont think people hate Niji
I miss those guys. They're the perfect pro-Niji propaganda.
 
maybe someone can explain this for me but why, do some of you have such hatred for nijisanji and vshojo? is it just typical tribalism or dose it go deeper?

i can sorta see why people dislike vshojo but that's more because the talents that work there rather than the company.
The Nux Taku situation definitely put a sour taste in my mouth with VShojo. They threw him under the bus publically but wanted to "hash this out in private DMs" the moment that public opinion was shifting. That's pretty sly to me. You don't get to have your cake and eat it like that, publically calling for someone's head and then settling it privately when your ass is on the line.

But the big issue is how they dealt with the doxxer/swatter.

They had a doxxer/swatter impersonating them. Their excuse of "we were protecting our talent" falls flat when you realise the doxxer was pretending to be recruiting for VShojo and as such was targetting members of the public hoping to become VShojo talent. When it all came out, they were more concerned about their image. They put a lot of people at risk who wouldn't have had a company to help protect them if their info was leaked, and the solution was literally just putting out a tweet saying "VShojo will always contact you on this email address, never ask for this information and never contact you first. If you believe someone is pretending to be VShojo to elicit information from you, please forward us their email and we'll send it to our cybersecurity department".

It's really not hard to make a statement, and would have protected a lot of people. It's not enough to make me outright hate them, but god they were retarded there and they wouldn't have been the ones suffering as a result.
 
Beat this yagoo.

Nazino was even kind enough to give us the green screen.

update from my favourite autistic ORCA
He archived every video where Rushia replied to his comments, good lord, what drives someone to be this obsessed with a 2D girl.

I'm working on capturing some of the comments and responses from Orca-san before her channel disappears.
So I thought I'd try to capture some of Orca's comments and responses to my spacha before her channel disappears, and I'm working on it now.
While I'm working, I'm remembering so many things that I'm crying. ......
Really precious memories!

You're a good man and I thank you for your service.
This whole thing has only served to leave a sour taste in my mouth, it's been a hard few months to be excited about Vtubers, for me atleast, maybe im just fucking jaded and tired of the constant dramawhoring the community gets up to, i bitch now but i will probably perk up again once something actually good comes around
I feel ya. I get pissed off at some of the caps of people bemoaning about Cover not giving enough information and they should be fully transparent like it's the 2020 election and Rushia was so close to becoming Queen of Youtube. Cover and Hololive are not public utilities or civil services. They are a private company. They have girls get in front of a camera and do cute shit for an audience. Disclosing any info would not sate the retards on the internet at best and at worst would confirm info that Rushia leaked out which could potentially put more heat on Rushia herself or send actual weirdos to the homes of the other talents *cue the video of 10 or so twinks all assaulting their idol in a hotel room*. I think these dumbasses are just hoping that there's some sort of email that they'll find that says "HOHOHOHO Now we can finary fuck ova da wershboard!" to confirm their preconceived bias that Cover is an evil company and must be destroyed. There's no way that Yago dressed up in HardGay cosplay and pinched his nipples at the thought of yeeting Rushia. She is their top earner. They actually went out of their way to cover for her when the discord message popped up but Rushia could not stop herself from trying to quell the deluge of vitriol at her and her company. Was it to save her own skin from any real or imagined threats or to try in her own way to be a professional and make things right for her company? It doesn't matter because the character of Rushia is now dead and she's not coming back.

I don't know why this incident intrigues and saddens me so. Anyways, I'll stop gaying up the place and let y'all enjoy this video I found.

 
i think it's shitty that cover was so vague about her termination explanation, making it seems like she wanted to cause harm to her genmates. If that were true i would have to ask, why? she had absolutely nothing to gain from doxxing them or leaking important info, she was at the top of the food chain, she could sustain for herself without needing to leach other members, and if she wanted to leave she could have done it like Coco, instead of ending it like this. Cover destroyed the Hololive brand with this, the whole fantasy of ''cute wholesome idol company look at how me meme our president isnt he so kawaii uguu uwu'' is completely destroyed after this and Coco's mess. Those videos of the girls talking about what happen while the avatar is '':biggrin:'' was painfully uncanny
She was retarded and fucked up. Simplest and most boring answer is the correct one 99%. If you have any faith in humanity to be that regularly conspiratorial, I wish you'd share that faith with the rest of the world.

As for the constant "why was this so vague" comments, I want everyone who thinks this was vague to eat a brick. This wasn't vague at all. In fact they were extremely blunt about what she did. If your definition of vague is that they didn't provide damning evidence of her breach, clearly you do not fucking understand what "confidential" or "sensitive" means.
For starters, they can give all their talents a competent manager. Preferably one that doesn't just lay on his ass while the talent he manages wrecks her own career in a matter of minutes
This nebulous response isn't a suggestion. Cover's Managers only exist to manage the Talents' vtuber shit and nothing else. Cover will provide some aid and the girls will support each other if something goes awry, but what they do privately is largely out of Cover's hands. The girls' are more on their own when shit blows up in their face, but that's the cost of giving the girls the freedom they have. Asking for more is actively asking Cover to do what idol agencies do and Micromanage their Talents' existence.
Heh. Tarot predictions are so vague that almost anything could make them accurate in hindsight.
I mean that"s basically the whole point.

Now in general I want to address the Cover bashing. It's almost as if no one ever pays attention to this thread because if anything, at most, Cover is just slightly incompetent with the usual corpo nip retardation. You can't hold their mistakes in the first few years against them cause they were basically a back alley start up then. If anything Cover is basically just an indie corp that found a way to make a fuckton of money without having to be a massive establishment. They have, and probably still do to some extent, lack the infrastructure to manage the audience they have now; from harassment campaigns to gachikoi. This isn't something you can fix overnight and they have been getting better about it. Cover sees the least amount of graduations/terminations of any corpo for a reason. And I highly doubt its because they'er being held hostage.
If anything their biggest sin, based on little things the girls have said over the years, is that there's too much corporate bureaucracy involved in getting help with bigger issues or general permissions for games and big projects. The usual nip company problem.

And to make this point abundantly clear for the retards in the back, why would a company that has done everything in their power not to fire any of their talents, even when several others have broken contract or violated other terms, choose to fire their biggest talent for any reason other than "She royally fucked up in a way we can't let slide."
 
Weekly EN hours streamed: View attachment 3016743

For EOP plebs, 時間 is 'Hour' and 分 is 'Minute'.
I am convinced that the mentality of holoEN is that streaming is a side activity for their job in HL, whereas NijiEN treats it as a full time gig even for those with side commitments. We don't always see wtf holoEN are working on but recently whenever they've revealed something it's always felt to me like "that's nice but really? This is what you've been spending half your effort the past few months on?". Meanwhile the NijiEN folks are putting out covers and planning large group collabs etc all while streaming 2 digit hours per week. 🤷‍♂️
 
Thats it, thats the fucking gist.

Damn, Aki really is adorable
Here's someone other than Gen 3 who said Rushia's name.

"Also if you do a little digging on the Japanese side of the internet you'd find it pretty easily. Major leaks by Rushia (specifically her actress) was trending in Japan already since a couple of weeks ago, it just never made it to the English speaking side until yesterday when Rushia was fired."

Huh. "A couple of weeks"? Could there be more than just what she leaked to Korekore? Cover did mention "an outburst of misleading information to third parties, as well as a leakage of information including those of fellow business correspondants" in their first notice, the one from the 14th defending the talents' right to their private lives.

EDIT: the aforementioned notice: https://cover-corp.com/news/detail/20220214b/
Man, looking through his channel, he's the worst kind of muckracker.
I watched his pinned video, where he claims to have had insider info on why Coco graduated (tldw: she allegedly got ignored and stonewalled by chinese-leaning higher ups until she couldn't take it anymore and left). If he's not completely talking out of his ass and Hololive insiders (maybe Rushia, maybe someone else) were actually leaking info to him even back then, this might explain Cover's termination with extreme prejudice of Rushia after finding out she leaked stuff recently.
"A couple of weeks" is when the Mafumafu saga started, so that by itself doesn't imply there was more. Your second post is consistent with the "it has been apparent for some time" in Cover's termination notice. Speculation though.

I think Kson. has the right idea, keep moving forward and focus on their good memories. Drama can be fun but not even weighs down your enjoyment.
There were people who said Kson's willingness (or refusal) to collab with Rushia's roommate would indicate who was to blame or the magnitude of what Rushia did, so I'm surprised there's no autistic overanalysis of Kson's tweet. But I guess that would be missing Kson's point.

Unless he's pulling a huge bait and switch, Miyuno was much more fluent at English. In fact, the way Yugo types makes me think his roommate may actually be a Japanese woman, or a Japanese man with a voice like Kagami Kira.
Are there many women who use male avatars? I know of Tamaki but I'm not sure he counts for this purpose.

What other pairs would be good to pull something like this off? OkaKoro, NoeFure... probably won't catch on as a trend, but I wouldn't mind if it did.
As you said, it probably won't catch on (especially now perhaps) but if it did OkaKoro would be funny. I haven't seen enough of NoeFure to judge how they interact. If you open the field to business friends/partners I could see MiComet and AmeSame. KroMei would be pure autism and LuiKuro would immediately spiral into degeneracy.

Even so, Rosemi still works full-time, Petra is still a full-time student, Pomu still works part-time. I'm pretty sure Millie and Enna also work in some capacity too because they had rent responsibilities before joining the company. Mysta and Vox also pay rent and live in London (which is expensive) so they probably work too for now until those paychecks starts stabilising.

They just work really hard and/or are better at managing their time, or just really love streaming.

I sometimes Bookmark stuff like that. I imagine if Watame, Luna or someone else I watch frequently were to disappear and DFE I'd try to archive those moments.
