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

I don't think anyone has posted this yet

This might have been discussed in the shy of 100 pages added this weekend so forgive me if I missed. Do we have any idea of what the crowd is actually seeing? Are they just hearing the singer and have to look at the side screens to see what's actually supposed to be going on?

TLDR:

yes, the talent and stage behind them are AR. in side-view shot you can see the contrast of talent, stage and the audience. what idk is wtf the audience saw at that time

further posts elaborate on audience seeing idol on big screen with band, us on livestream seeing Idol with band hiding off to side with audience at the front/during audience shots


Post-3rd Fest Update: Mori looked a bit weird, everyone else looked good, ID can sing to hell and back, Moona and Risu are stars; Nolan stop doxxing yourself you lovable idiot.

The saw a projected 3D of the girls

Something similar to this. This was almost 10 years ago and Cover AR techs are better than this (a little bit behind the Kizuna Ai crew but still top tier)

EDIT: Not sure if it is a culture thing or maybe we tend to be harsher with ourselves (NA talents) but Matsuri talks positively about everything everyone here (including myself) didn't like with Calli's performance. Of course, none of these things was Calli's fault, she did what she could with the resources she had.

This is literally EN/ID's debut on a big stage. Most of these girls have consistently done live or recorded 3D events for several years at this point. JP is going to be excited for the newcomers and very aware that they're not going to be as technical as they are. It's like looking at an old recording of what they were like at the start.

Ollie's been yelling at people for a while to stop subscribing to her so she can think of a proper 1 million celebration stream idea.

Zoombie is one of the biggest I don't watch nearly as much as I should, mainly because she streams in the dead of night for me. It'll be exciting to see her make it this far.

One of my favorite clips of her, but I can't seem to find it now, was one day she got rather emotional and shared that she never thought she'd see the success she has seen. This was because she was worried her model would be offputting to most viewers. She didn't think she'd capture nearly the audience that she has. Happy for her.

In the Chicken's Members stream. I'll update this message when the she says something relevant. She'll be discussing most of this tomorrow:

Spoiler: Chicken's 3 hour endless squawking

- Until she was on stage she was worried that everyone would think her dance and 3D would look like shit. Very happy about the positive reception.
- She's not used to the 3d model and doesn't feel it's fully detailed. She hopes for some tweaks but doubts it's any time soon. Thinks her black shorts are too long, so she wants them shortened.
- Spoke to management and members about the MCing after the 2nd Holofes. Finds it the weakest aspect of the show. Doesn't like that the focus is on talking about the songs which is all repeating previous shows. Praises Polka's MCing but as a whole it needs improvement. Wants to MC in the next Holofes. If there are concerts for EN she definitely is. Wants to throw in games and trivia into the mix.
- Confirmed Rushia's fuck up fucked over Ayame. Thinks Ayame is adorable.
- Nostalgia about her old Idol training and the pressure of perfection.
- If she didn't exist, she is convinced all of KFP would gravitate to Watame which would make her happy.
- She's chatting with Pomu in her DMs. Pomu is praising her performance. Very giggly about it.
- She wants everyone in JP to get new Idol outfits. They must be worn out by now.
- On day 1 Ina gave her magical vibes in her performance, on Day 2 it was Aki and Risu
- She was very nervous about going after Calli. Thought no one would give a shit.
- Loves Iofi's new song, thinks Risu fucking killed it. Very emotional about the wait ID1 went through. Feels ID has been overlooked and is happy to see them shine.
- Ame's sending Kiara shitpost pictures in her DM. No further elaborations.
- Small gripe that EN/ID wasn't invited to the closing song. Going to push hard to be in the 4th fes closing song.
-All the girls were allowed to choose the colour of their shirts, Aki ended up the only one in black.
- She toned down the choreography to come off as manageable and to make time for crowd participation. She chose someone from her former life to design the dance rather then use the company one.
- Ina and Kiara both want to wait for a proper Debut. Kiara's willing to use the proper models but only after she sorts out her equipment. Feels bad for Broke Gang but it was this or nothing for an indeterminate amount of time.

That's about it. I might do this for the Wigger if I'm awake. That or I'll do the VOD.

Speaking of Ollie clips, I'll share you the story of the clip that got me to like Ollie. It was the clip of her playing Minecraft talking about her simp siblings. It was very cute and showed me zombie could do more than contribute to my hearing loss.

 

[Ruka]

Thought about this just now:
Since Rushia's pretty much been snapped out of reality at this point, there's never gonna be live performances of Koyoi wa Halloween Night anymore. Sucks, it was one of my favorite Holo songs.

 

[Airihead]

Here is the Day 2 EN and ID archives ill update my first post of Day 1 with Day 2 as well and here is the link to those

https://kiwifarms.st/posts/11443907/

Iofi being adorable

Calli I gotta say i love the Power Stance and the little billow of her dress from the teleportation

Risu just absolutely killing it

Chicken showing off the Skillz picked up from her days as the inferior version of an Idol

My favorite performances were Moona, Gura, Kiara, Calli, and Risu

GREAT JOB EN AND ID YOU KILLED IT

Luca got a sub-5 speedrun of Getting Over It at roughly 04:44; don't know if that makes it the fastest run in corpo, but it's definitely the fastest in Niji, with Kaida Haru having an offstream 05:05 prior.

Thats how Mafia works

No but seriously something super satisfying about watching rage game speedruns

I never found ollie offputting tbh, her screaming was probably the worst part about her but at the time of ID2's debut everyone was really optimistic about Hololive and hungry for good news after the chinkfestation, the only talent i have found offputting has been irys and i eventually got used to her.

Calli's fucking middle-aged mother dancing is killing me, I love it.

What with all the member streams being mentioned, Shorks watch of Day 1 starts in about 5 minutes.

It also only JUST occurred to me (forgive me, I'm slow and was too busy nerding out) that 3D Ame karaokes are supposedly on the table. That could be good.
I wonder if she's gonna fiddle around with the model at all or get weird props. Also want some Smoll Ame collabs lol

Edit: Shark is a scatter brained idiot lol, she's fangirling on Ollie levels. Also has her own self drawn Nene-styled arms

 

[VTuber Bob Dole]

I think this was a Morton's Fork type of situation, because on the other hand, if she wasn't streaming on either of those days, that could've started rrats that she was either physically attending the Expo and concert, or was even invited to take up the character of Coco just for the concert.

I doubt there would have been any rrats other than she took the days off to support her friends, especially her roommate/waifu. I think the "Coco coming back" ship has long sailed.

I am Haachama. I am allergic to eggs. Should I not eat eggs? No, I should eat eggs in order to overcome the allergy and fight through any potential anaphylactic shock. I am the World's Strongest Idol after all.

I mean that is a way to get over allergies. Eat a little and slowly build up a tolerance.



Gura's member watchalong of Day 1 about to start! Anything interesting comes out of it I'm sure one of us will post.

 

[Takodachi]

Ina stream in 2 minutes

[Cubanodun]

Interesting clip from Miyabi, Uproar isn't Holostars Gen 4 but a new thing.

Hololive Production -> Holostars -> two branches (Current group of guys and Uproar) sounds like. Kinda like how it's Hololive EN -> (Myth & Council), no gens through we still say it.

"they are still our kouhais but not exactly under our branch"

So EN, even the fact that they refuse to call them a Gen is a dead giveaway

- Concert starting. Simping hard for Aki and Flare.

- Simping hard for Mel. Pekora showed up. Time to simp harder. Permitted clippers to clip her reaction to Pekora and release it.
- She's chatting with Pomu in her DMs. Pomu is praising her performance. Very giggly about it.
- She wants everyone in JP to get new Idol outfits. They must be worn out by now, she knows the pain of on the fly outfit repairs.
- On day 1 Ina gave her magical vibes in her performance, on Day 2 it was Aki and Risu

Gonna sound dumb for this, but what do you mean by MCing?
