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

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
With DDK now being more active and now this, should I be worried about what it means that these PL accounts are awakening, even coming out of long-term hibernation? Are they preparing their lifeboats/parachutes?
They dedicated years to the company. Only natural for them to want to step outside and relax.

Edit: Wow Elon Musk is hand delivering a StarLink Satellite to Pippa. How kind!

I feel like the JP side feels that DDK somehow show them a way to stick it to those "le forbidden knowledge clowns"

Also, Amelia return to Twitch and looks like she get some subcribers already and we off to a good start with 3D animated hands

Watson's live on Twitch. She's using a Live2D body, but has 3D articulated arms with fingers. It's kinda weirding me out.

From Botan's zatsudan streams we at least know they hang around once a week and, at least once a month do a big thing like going out to gibsneyworld. I have little reason to doubt Botan because of all the holomems, she's the least likely to put up with dumb rumors being thrown around her face.

Do we know anything about Tenma's roommate. She seems like the most huggable 30something japanese woman.
I thought she was in her mid-20s? Edit: I believe she's 23-24 as of last Fall.

I could be incorrectly remembering.

Those do not look like they are part of the same model as the body, they look like they are floating arms with the end of them hiding below the table. Is it supposed to look like that? I can't remember anyone else having such a out of place model. If it is separate arms she needs to move her body higher in relation to the arms so it looks more natural.

Is it confirmed who this actually is? I mean the body type seems to match what we see on doxx sites but the voice seems a bit off. It could be Aqua but the 'pre-recorded' thing seems like a stretch at first glance. . .

I think it is more that they see the value in having a separate streaming outlet for themselves. Canan has never stopped, and Masimasi has kept hers alive for a while now (albeit sparingly not including twitter). Maybe Karen's openess about it has given the others a bit more confidence to explore the option since there seems to be less eggshells to walk on.
 
I'm not sure if we have any audio engineers here, but I hope we do to answer something that's been bothering me. In watching and rewatching 3rd fes something noticeably bothered me. Some voice tracks noticeably sounded expectedly flawed, in a good way, especially when you're expecting to watch something live. But others sound so suspiciously perfect that it screams prerecorded and edited in post. I'm wondering if anyone with any kind of experience can weigh in.
I went through and did a basic vocal isolate of EN + Risu from the recent HoloFes. There is going to be a lot of artifacts due to it being 'live' and due to the amount of delay and reverb put in the vocals. I tried to de-reverb the vocal, but it didn't do much so I kept it as-is.

You may have to skip forward a bit as I did this pretty lazily in RX 9:

Hopefully this worked as I've never used .webm on this site for audio.
Edit: It didn't work out great, so I'm adding Mega links for each .mp3 clip.

Jesus the autotune on Ina is so much more noticable without the music. I have no doubt in my mind these were prerecorded just with how logistically unrealistic it would have been to stream them from the other side of the world and expect there to be no issues. Frankly, I could not care less if they were pre-recorded or not. Not like we would really ever know the difference.
 
Right now they are coming after a singer girl that literally hurt nobody, she just sings and streams. They could be chasing actual racists, groomers and pedophiles plus other extremists, but they witch they chose to burn is a fucking singer. Must be as they are all cowards, looking for the easier targets!

To be fair, chasing after those typically would end up involving either chasing themselves or their buddies.


But yeah as far as I think we found, Tenma's basically a mid 20s or so fairly well traveled Japanese lady. Maybe recalling wrong but pretty sure she's been to several different countries and studied as a student in at least one for a while. She knows how to meme it up a lot but legitimately seems to have good life sense. Plus she has golden comedic timing and the sense of humor to go with. Really reminds me of things like the Downtown guys and older Bri'ish sitcoms or something. (Which might be related to the traveling bit thinking on it.)

Also Ame is live again on twitch to Karaoke

Even the crappy copies are fine.

It's been nagging at me since her song came out, not being able to pin down whose voice Risu's reminds me of. Hearing your file brought it straight to mind. It's Anneke from The Gathering. This song was stuck in my head for like ten years after it came out:

I wouldn't 100% pass judgement as dialog / vocal isolation is messy.
 
Local guides took travelers on a cherry blossom date tonight if you like to join.


Meanwhile, local pippit was recently fired from Mcdonalds For gross health violations and is currently working at a new burger join called "Happy's Humble Burger Farm".
A pretty good horror game that started out as a little gamejolt game.
 
So I don't know if any of you care about this, but my brother was showing something on reddit called place where people collectively create pixel art on a shared canvas and I saw this.

Edit: there is also a trans thing there if anyone wants to fuck it up
There is another vtuber section further up and to the left. iitc this is the original area, then r/places added more empty canvas so sad yagoo was made. There was a mini war going on between Suisei and Suisex, looks like the latter won.

Go check it out.
