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

Noticeably absent is Sakura Miko
Also no Uproar, ID, Council and no Sora (she is the face of Hololive after all)

BTW can you change the twitch channel name later?
if I remember correctly, not really. You could contact twitch support for help with that but if say someone has taken the channel name, you're shit out of luck unless the other person releases the account to you

NotRushia seems like she wants to play Genshin Impact. Interesting how this will happen, considering that Hololive is banned to stream the game due to chinks being more fragile than Twittards. I know other Hololive's roommates like Iofi was able to play it too, but they're not as large as Mike, so I'm curious to see how this will play out.

I can already imagine the disaster that will follow if she gets banned on stream

Yeah I can see that being the case. While some like Mori, Gura and Ame are drawn to Twitch I cannot see someone like Ina making a Twitch debut. Better to have the accounts registered by the company and made available should they so choose to be used by the talent.
 
Yeah, the Twitch ecosystem is just that shit. Susantube might not be the best, but at least it's not that infested with woketard, trannies, and grifters. At this point Twitch is less like a corporate platform and more of a gigantic Discord Servers, complete with their own Discord Mod Syndrome
Twitch starts to get pretty restrictive with what their creators can do at a certain point if you seek actually becoming a twitch affiliate. I don't see hololive being willing to take that leap so I suspect it will always remain just a side hustle.
 
The moment it involves connecting Mori with Karen is the moment Hololive actually steps in. It's why what happened with Ollie ended up getting resolved so quickly (on top of Hololive's connections with a powerful conglomerate in the area). The Rushia drama was initially hands off because the drama specifically called to attention Mikeneko and Mafumafu with no mentions of Mikeneko being Rushia. HoloID threatened legal action after a dumbass was trying to take a shot at Ollie publicly.

The Mafumafu leak cane through Rushia's stream. The connection was made by proxy and it was something Cover and Rushia already had to deal with in 2018. None of what you say Re: Rushia is true at all.

The company is not going to get involved with people calling Karen a gentrifier even if some go on to say that she's also Calli. The entire context is radioactive for a company to try and defend.

I seem to recall proof to that effect posted somewhere in this thread a while back i remember being very surprised she was so young with that disappointed Jp grandma voice she has
The granny voice is 100% fake. This is from her recent Black Mesa playthrough and it's most likely closer to her real voice even if she deepened it.
 
Anyone else think about this?

Anyway, Ame is really fun to watch, creepy hands and all. That's all I want to say.
 
Earlier on, there was another round of Koyoringlish, this time with Duolingo (and live TLs). From her stream description, she decided to do this after positive reception of the previous two Passion English streams. This also means 4/5 of HoloX have done Duolingo streams.

It's been a while since Lui had an English zatsudan.
Recap of hawk English:
- There are more gray names than normal, which is expected, but there are also a number of members
- Shilled Calli's birthday countdown (lol)
- Apologised for not having time to do English streams because she had a lot of collaborations, but specifically picked collabs that she thought overseas viewers would be interested in, e.g. EN Minecraft tour, Japanese class. More in April (but fewer collabs).
- Wants to do a 3D live with Calli
Chat: Japanese rap?
Lui: [...] If I sing rap, I become a cat. "Nya nya nya" - like that. I just sing. Not rap.
Chat: You rap and Calli sings.
Lui: No!
- "Would you consider your new kouhai a penguin, and would you be welcome to have her in HoloTori?"
Lui: This is difficult. Kaela is not penguin. But - she can join Holotori. But it prove she is penguin.
- Wants to do a spicy food collab with Kaela.
Chat: Spicy collab?
Lui: (laughs) Spicy collab is different meaning, right?
- Relaxes by hanging out with Hololive members. "Hololive members are like family."
Chat: Lamy said something different the other day.
Lui: ...Next question.
- "How has your life changed since joining Hololive?"
She didn't have many friends before debut.
"I can work with my favourite idol, and promote my favourite game, so my dream coming true."
"I want to become idol comedian."
- Chat asked if Outlast was her favourite game.
"Moderator-san! Banned word! 'Outlast'. (laughs) Just joke." (Honestly I wouldn't hold it against her if she was serious.)
Chat then filled up with [message deleted].
- Favourite instalment of Harry Potter is Goblet of Fire because it's a "turning point for Harry". Favourite characters are Cedric and Luna. "Not Luna-senpai! I love Luna-senpai but she - didn't act in Harry Potter, right? Luna-senpai also mysterious and very cute." Looking forward to Fantastic Beasts. Sakamata also likes Harry Potter. Apparently sent the invite for a movie date on stream lol.
- Harry Potter otaku session with chat
- Has had a pet in the past. Wants to get a cat after moving. Sakamata is allergic to cats (and it sounds like they may not live together for that and other reasons.) Does not like small dogs. "When I was young, a small dog swung its hip at my leg."
- Superchat reading is also in English, which she hasn't done previously to my knowledge
- Doesn't pronounce Earth any better than Laplus
- She considers herself to have learnt English for 1 year. The international school she mentioned before was when she was in university. "The class was in English, but speak a lot of Thai." (Note she's also said that her Thai is not that good.)
- Was very diplomatic in response to a superchat saying that she had the best English in the JP branch, saying that most of them don't have time but she wants to get good enough to translate for them and bridge the branches.

I have a lot to catch up with. I'll start with karaoke.
Kobokan song + monetisation
Monetisation seems pretty fast. Also, thinking back, Zeta was the only one who had the stream embed issue on debut that HoloX had, which was supposedly tied to monetisation.
Favorites I heard were Kiss, Gyutto, and Orange. Wonderful singing.
New HoloID3 Zeta having her first karaoke (and monetization just opened today too). Unarchived so there'll be non-JP stuff I imagine.

Favorites I heard were Love You 3000, Idon'twannabeyouanymore, L-O-V-E, and Isn't She Lovely. Her voice is fantastic, genuinely hard to decide whose voice I like more between her and Kobo.

Also Ame is live again on twitch to Karaoke
Favorites were Never Gonna Give You Up, Country Roads, Since U Been Gone, Riptide, Hey Soul Sister, Kiss Me, City of Stars, Bubbly, I Dreamed a Dream, YMCA, etc. She actually did well on a few of them (like I Dreamed A Dream which was the best and she did great on)

Mafumafu's message showing was a mistake on Rushia's part and ultimately it would have and should have been resolved by Mike since it's ultimately about a personal relationship something Cover wouldn't want to step in for.

What's happening with Calli is some idiot digging stuff up and trying to stir shit by getting her canceled for being "racist" and almost saying the N-word. Considering Cover stamped out someone for making fun of Ollie and claiming she was a man based on her appearance in a reflection it's not exactly out of the question for a possiblity of Cover stepping in if the schizos get louder and try to spread it as a rumor more.

It certainly doesn't help that the original person who brought this to light lives in Indonesia themselves. Which is honestly surprising considering Indonesian law is absolutely fucked to the point that yes Cover can go after them with the help of Reine's family.

Yes, the Indonesian Internet Law and Defamation Law is flexible enough to get these motherfuckers thrown in jail provided they're Indonesian or lives in Indonesia, and Cover is willing to spend enough money to pursue the case. It's not like there's a lack of lawyers here willing to take the case, it's easy money after all
 
this Calli thing is a nothingburger.
A familiar phrase by this point.

"Dude, wake up and grab your doomposts. It's time for the bi-monthly Calli nothingburger."

EDIT: (This particular nothingburger looks like envy to me, considering how unexpectedly good the Calvin songs are.)

Why does anyone think Calli's rap is racist?

The line people on Twitter are reacting to most: "Satan said I wasn't black, male, or hood enough" is so inoffensive I've yet to see someone come up with a reason why it is. Even just a made up reason.

I interpret "Satan" to be her dark thoughts and self doubt about being from a different background than most rappers, but then she later finds inspiration from rappers of a completely different culture in Japan. The message "Anyone from anywhere can be a rapper" is the most pc, inclusive, female empowering message that these people normally would eat up. I swear these Twitter teenagers are worse than children at reading comprehension.
