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

Noticed by the real deal

My personal rrat is that male Vtubers saw how successful Luxiem vs Holo's most recent Stars gen and would rather apply to Niji for secured success.
Holo has had auditions open for the HoloStars EN for sooo long now, that I genuinely have no clue what is it that they desire!? Because the more Niji EN grows and showcases that male talent can find success, the less desirable the Holo position becomes. Especially as the most recent group, UPROAR is dipping into triple digits for streams now.

The real reason is because none of the people applying to Holostars can name the Holostars. Not even those applying to Holostars care about Holostars.
 
I know Robert and the anti-social Black one. That's like half of them right?!
For all intents and purposes that's basically all of them.

It's all about perspective.

Mysta, Uki, Shu and Fulgur were 2-view Indies. To them, even UPROAR numbers would have been a step up in their career,

Unless Cover only want big-name creators to fill their spots, there's likely a lot of talented, relatively unknown people who have applied and will inevitably get in. The Hololive branding in the west WILL carry them to some flavour of success, but it's those business-minded people or bigger creators that'll look at precedent.

It doesn't really mean anything, though. Lyrica was the biggest Indie out there, but yesterday she was overtaken in subs by Enna, who just kind of hung out with her in their PL days. Being a smaller creator doesn't mean you're at a disadvantage when it comes to showing off your skills in front of a larger audience.

Whoever StarsEN end up being, they'll probably be able to hold their own weight.
 
That part is rather disputable considering VOX in particular is constantly playing with the same kind of fire that already burned Holo girls. The only difference between his fans and mafu mafu's is that the latter is actually talented so doesn't have to rely on pandering as much and knows how to control his fanbase somewhat while the deep voice manwhore is a disaster waiting to happen.
Meanwhile, Noel and Mel still doing sexual asmr as their side career is an even bigger disaster waiting to happen since all it's gonna take are bitter people to stir shit that spills over into the Hololive side, it won't be rushia level (since neither of them do GFE pandering) but they're kind of working on a trust system with fans.

Nah, Hololive will always be the more attractive option simply because the west (being realistic) got into vtubing BY LARGE because of Hololive. The brand is strong, so even if Nijisanji ends up dominating the male chubba side, people will still want to try for HL first and foremost since those brand collabs are very, very lucrative.

I'm sure Vox has some personal experience with what can happen, considering he used to be known for voicing various Sans in comic fandubs and had a thirsty fanbase over there because of that as well. (People really want to fuck the Undertale skeleton, man.) He's been fielding that kind of attention on a smaller scale for a while now, and the lessons you learn don't change no matter how big your fanbase is - it's just the slip-up that will be scary (and he knows it) and I'm glad we'll all be here to see it if and when it happens.

It seems good help is hard to find these days. Holo merch in shambles.
I think this is in regard to Luna's Birthday Goods. At least that's the context I received a mail from them stating the multiple postcard thing. She's really been getting the short end of the stick. First, she had to redo all of her Birthday signatures because they supposedly faded, then she was left out of some of the promotional posters for 3rd fes, and now this other problem with her birthday goods.
 
I regret/am proud to inform you all that I have transcended vtubing and have now become addicted to twitter spaces. Has less engagement but feels more comfy and is something I can just listen to in the background while doing other shit instead of actively watching to see what happens.

Right now Tenma is arguing with her cat about making the bed and the cat is winning
