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

Just some animation.

Idk im geniuenly curious on what the fed will stream and hopeful that they flex the manlady's music talent like holo did for calli, even if its just "DJ" shit and not very obvious and visible work like actually singing

 

[reinigen]

jesus fuck im listening to the gura powerwash archive and shes talking about how she eats hot dogs completely cold/uncooked WTF is wrong with this wench? Every time I think she's getting healthier/smarter she just casually drops some shit like how she just ate a dozen donuts before hitting go live

Gura's Powerwash stream was the glorious stream of consciousness zatsu I always dreamed it was going to be. Hope she does it again.

Saw this, reminded me of you guys

I can't even tell which direction that thing is facing. At least they're representing their people with the blanket there.

I'm sure it'll be clipped everywhere once Kiara finishes her stream, but apparently she didn't know about the off collab with Ame, Ina, Fauna, Kronii, and Mumei until the day before when it came out in a conversation with Ame. She said she would've tried to make it if she had known about it.
I doubt it was intentional, and Ame and Kiara have both been vocal about a planned AmeTori off collab eventually, but that's gotta sting a little bit.
Especially since even Bae knew about it despite being in Australia.

Honestly, Kiara is kinda screwed being the only Yuro on the crew. When it's USA prime time, it's the middle of the night for her and just hitting morning for the JP/Aussie crew. There's much more overlap for everyone else then here. It really doesn't surprise me if she misses shit like this simply because she's asleep during stuff like this.

Women voice male characters somewhat often in anime, I think that was Anycolor's gambit here but it doesn't work as well in English. It would be more passable if Yugo was a JP member.

I did see a bunch of people in chat (with Reimu and Ike talking to them) saying "IS HE A GIRL?" The whole preferred pronouns thing might backfire if they try to go full Tumblr on it.

Anyway, Elira has posted one of the most kino schedules I've seen in a while. 4 RPGs, too, so the ones complaining about impromptu collabs will probably find refuge here.

I bet Nina will pop in during Dark Souls.

I feel like Noctis has the best taste overall in anime out of all of the EN branches. The least normie too.

Well this is his schedule for the first week. Yes, Mr. 4ch has gone straight in with Touhou and MGR.


As for Yugo, I hope so too. They seem to be a talented singer but describe themselves as a 'Beginner' DJ. One of their goals is to release an EP so getting NijiEN singers some kind of deals would be cool. If Honma Himawari can be signed on with a record label, I think there's plenty in EN who could too.

 

[Reimu Hakurei]

Sonny Brisko's previous identity is most likely sketchek, a TF2 youtuber best known for disappearing in 2015 after being diagnosed with a terminal illness (video mirror), only to re-emerge in 2019 and confess he'd made the whole thing up (video mirror, post here).

All his videos where he speaks have been privated since this information came out.

 

[Takodachi]

I have high hopes for the fedtuber.

I'm turning into a Fujo for this lad just based on playing Titanfall 2 over Apex. He better be using Northstar though.

I didn't see Luca's roommate before the post was deleted, but even if for argument's sake I acknowledge it, Luca is still male.

That one Luca roommate poster here got the wrong person, if that's what you are talking about.

 

[Tatsunoko]

I feel like La+ and Gura could make a really fun combo. I would have hoped for some other members for the next Calli's English Lessons but I'm not complaining.

 

[EenGevolg]

I didn't see Luca's roommate before the post was deleted, but even if for argument's sake I acknowledge it, Luca is still male.

I think this might be the fourth time this is mentioned, but that wasn't Luca, it was one of his mods/friends. Luca/Java is the guy in the top right.

 

[konfident_]

I think the conclusion to take away is that there are two possibilities:
1) her senpai beef had nothing to do with overlaps, it was a misunderstanding/mistranslation on the part of the fanbase, or
2) the beef did involve overlaps, but it was all in her menhera head because there's clearly nothing intentional going on here

Well my theory is that she just hated people overlapping her in general (among other things no doubt) and would actively push them (through her manager or in private) to stream at different hours, the problem is she couldn't really do that to her seniors (even if they're less popular like Mel, Choco or Roboco) so it wasn't about any senpai in particular but more like the "culture" where she can't always have it her way. Would also explain why she was so vague about it.

It makes me wonder though why was Rushia so friendly with Coco, you would think she might be jealous of her gachikoi and akasupas stealing her number 1 spot but she spoke highly of the dragon even long after the graduation, menhera works in mysterious ways.

He faked a terminal illness to get out of playing tf2 I believe. The tf2 community is extremely autistic when tf2-youtubers decide to up and quit on the game to explore different ventures (see: STAR_ and Muselk for examples).
Valve even had a dedication to him believing he actually died in the game for the Axtinguisher. That was later removed after this surfaced, I think all around Jungle Inferno's update?

I'm expecting Antis to start digging up this dead drama lmfao.

His entire channel is now void of videos. They were apparently still up even as of a few hours ago, so this is very recent. He also was still uploading videos as of about a week or so ago. And his Twitter is private as well.

I think we have a winner. Holy fucking shit.

Here is a playlist of a few of his super old deleted videos. There will likely be archives encompassing all of his newer & recent videos uploaded in the coming days/weeks/months, as the TF2 community is super autistic and someone probably has them all downloaded somewhere; we probably just have to give it some more time, since this development is so recent.

And as a TF2fag, I used to, and still do, follow this guy, & I remember the shitshow like it was yesterday. Here's some more videos/info/documentation about it.

TeamFortressTV Thread - Sketchek is Back? (2019)

Spoiler: Videos, Spoilered for Space

A little tidbit of TF2 happenings that I'd like to throw in was sketchek. For those who don't know, sketchek was a prolific pyro main who uploaded videos of him doing pyro kills in stylish ways. High altitude kills, detonator jumps and the like. He also popularized the Degreaser + Axtinguisher combo.

Some years back, he stopped uploading videos and announced that he was stopping due a fatal illness of sorts. People understood and wished him luck. Years go by, and a lot of people finally concluded from the lack of uploads that he succumbed to the illness.

Well, turns out he didn't. He basically faked the whole thing as a massive commitment to stay away from making videos due to guilt. This incident caused some noise. A few articles were made on the incident, and a few people were also understandibly upset that he faked his own death. Eventually, the whole thing died down, and he's still making videos to this day.

And hey, he also helped buff the Axtinguisher.

---

Edit:

Update to this:
Sketchek (Sonny Brisko) has seemingly unprivated his entire backlog of old videos at some point recently. They're all back. The only thing is that the comments on all of them are now disabled, probably to avoid people namedropping his activities as Sonny.

Just thought this was worth quickly documenting here.

Irys apparently knew about it too.

I think its just the girls being awkward and thinking they would be bothering Kiara by making her fly half way around the world.

It would be more juicy if they simply didn't want Kiara's massive extrovert energy there but its most likely the boring option that's correct.

Gotta say, this is the wildest EN PL I've seen so far lol.

What I got from Gura and IRyS was that the plan for the 5 of them to meet was discussed but the whole execution was sudden, so the karaoke got everyone else by surprise.

He is the funniest V-Tuber ever and he hasn't even done anything.

I wonder how old he was in 2015. He probably didn't think much of it until the weapon was renamed in 2018 because his apology video specifically mentioned him wanting the weapon homage being revoked.

He's a bit of a retard for not preemptively deleting shit with a history like that, though. Even people who don't know KF and 4chan should know that the internet is always watching.

What was he like post-apology? Would you say it was an honest showing of change?
