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

I've seen this comment a few times and can't disagree more. Kiara is handicapped by both her chicken voice and her model. Both the zelda sword and shield and the tiny white hat are dumb and most of all that huge sideways open mouth pose is very off-putting. Her "papa" fucked her over hard imo.
Daily reminder that the model was not fucked by Huke but by necessity because the rigger could not animate her overcomplicated design,Kiara true design is the ones that you see in the poster and in the hinotori CD cover made by Huke himself

Her voice sadly is her own choice KFP has gave up in bitching to her to drop it

If you are hired to design a vtuber you should keep in mind that you are designing a vtuber and not something like a gacha game or VN character that just has to exist in static images and sprites. If your design can't be rigged well then it's not a good vtuber design. At the very least Cover should be communicative with their designers during the process to let them know what kinds of things do and don't look good in l2d.
 
Was it really an on-off-thing? I can't remember that someone official said it was only a time limited group. My point was: could it have been executed better with other members? sure. But I don't think units have to constantly release content to have a raison d'être.
But again, it's the first time i've heard it was a one time thing.
It was. I can't remember where it was said, but A-chan mentioned that it wasn't something they planned for the long term.

Also no, units don't need to be constantly churning out stuff to have their existence validated. Niji has lots of units that don't do much and more that I don't even know are a thing, but UmiSea had a greater deal of budget poured into anime stuff, an original song etc. that it's not unreasonable to infer that they probably wanted to do more with it than they ended up doing.

I found this Reddit post that suggested further Goods were supposed to be coming at a later date; but as far as I can tell, all they got was a cameo on Aqua's concert. Even the comments on the r/Holo hugbox seem to mull over corporate involvement taking precedence over individual agency.

It's possible UmiSea will come back with Chloe but that doesn't do much to solve the language barrier and number of awkward introverts. This specific attempt just didn't quite work.

That sounds like standard corporate speak for "we're doing a pilot project and based on fan reception we'll decide on whether to continue it or not." The fan reception was not negative, but was probably a bit tepid, so they read the room and didn't continue it.
 
The reason Umisea is an embarrassment has nothing to do with their actual dynamic. Lots of pairings/groupings show up once and then never again. They got a few clippable moments out of it and were able to generate some hype.

It's embarrassing because they clearly spent time and money on it. Imagine this: You've got a team of highly popular members (All above 1M) that share a common theme. You're aiming to produce content in a mix of English and Japanese. You rope in your most popular manager, as well as an animator, scriptwriter and songwriter to make sure it goes off perfectly.

The result was astoundingly mediocre. They spent considerably more resources on it than most other collabs, and it fell flat.
Turns out that it was not a very poggers ocean.
That line fucking kills me. Managers need to stick to managing, talents should be controlling their character.

They should spend the resources to go translate the sports festival, or make a highlight reel of the Mario Kart tournament, or something productive.

It's embarrassing because they clearly spent time and money on it, pulled A-chan in and an animator+scriptwriter+whatever else. All of the involved members are relatively popular too (all above 1M subs). I imagine the concept was something like an All-Star team that would bridge EN and JP. They were clearly expecting more and didn't really get it.

I would love to know the TL (even if it's biased one), but it's my religious law to not watch any video with click-baiting [SERIOUS] [SAD] [CRYING] thumbnail, especially when it come from an obvious clout chasing channel.

Edit: It's Holo turn for yab?

Edit 2 : With limited OCR, if the anon is really her, she just try to act like her own supporter lol. SSG Kusogaki.
While leaking IP is bad, her posting on her own thread is actually hilarious and in-character. Also, if I had to guess, a lot of vtubers do it.
do they got static IP over there?
Even if she does have a static address, this is old and she is moving soon. So unless she did have a static IP and chose to take it with her, the IP will be changing anyway.

It would've been funny if she was just flaming her own threads by shit talking herself, in the hope to see people respond in support of her. However, they just join in on the train of shitting on her as well.

Doesn't look like anything major.

I'm not sure how Cover will feel about her being responsible for circulating her real age around 5ch boards, and I'm sure she'll be a little embarrassed she was caught defending herself in the 3rd Person, but there's nothing here that warrants looking into.
 
So what was she saying?
First one is commenting on her own tweet volume, saying it's been low lately but high overall.
Second one: "The soul is 19 years old..."
Third one is her saying she was worried about someone's sore throat since last month.

At worst she's shilling herself, good kusogaki not being toxic even under the cover of anonymity.

Not about "some creepy people track her down", but about "was that the real her?".
But, even if her ISP gave her dynamic IP, there is still possibility that was really her. You can have the same IP address for a long time if you don't restart your router.
 
  • Agree

Yeah, for sure. I had the same IP for 2 years before it suddenly changed. I would be more surprised if it was not her. Plus even if you do restart your router, that doesn't guarantee you will end up with a different IP.

If they have static ips over there, then why has this only been discovered now? The collab was on february 12th, almost a month. I would have thought that the autists would immediately search the whole board.

Have a very cute animation of Ina's attempt to get hugs during the recent off-collab.
