Maybe she was home schooled or something. I swear I have never heard such a stream of naive things coming from the mouth of another Vtuber. She's adorkable and all, just...different.

I know she wasn't home schooled. She had to have used/seen that word before she went native Japanese in Japan for two years and then back to English before her debut.

Wtf kind of standard do they have when Hime exists and is literally not there 95% of the time. At least Ayame was around for a while in the beginning for Hololive and is basically available for any Hologra. Sana somehow has a better track record of streaming than Hime does ffs and she had a back injury.

Hime has her boyfriend (now husband) which is one of the biggest and well known "anime" youtuber and has connections to Kadokawa which is a Japanese company. Pretty sure that's the only reason why she's kept around as part of VShojo. Also she joined earlier on when it was more of a brand and group of people and less of a company. While I often clown on them, its clear (after AX) that they are trying to become more corpo.

Bug Eater said:
Kson didn't audition for VShojo - in her Q&A stream she said that she happened to need something that was tied with someone who worked there (no specifics given, but she had just mentioned her pop-up store and Comiket booth), her manager exchanged business cards with them, and it escalated from there. She said she joined back in March - I guess it's not unreasonable to assume that Kson put Mikeneko in touch with them at a later date.

It seems like Anny's audition process ended around May 3rd (tweet) (archive) so it's hard to say whether that was actually related to Kson - unless it was around the same time that they got Mikeneko on board as well. Apparently Ironmouse has also hinted that there are still more members on the way, so this post could just be a waste of time.

They will pick Bao, Shylily, Nui and Snuffy before they pick her up.

So, place your bets, were the auditions real, or are we just gonna get 3-4 more people who know the current members personally?
Click to expand...
They are real and they regularly review them but I doubt they will pick anyone from there unless maybe some existing corpo or indie with a huge following decides to audition for the role. Say someone like Monarch decides to "audition" they will probably pick her up.

The auditions were real, but they had no plans to accept anyone but existing big streamers + cases of nepotism and friends. Essentially a public announcement asking that group to apply.
It is not unheard of in the job market, where positions are announced open for PR or legal reasons but have someone specific chosen for them already.

This.

Basically, a way to drum up hype and possibly have a portfolio and contact info of potential candidates in case they decide to start signing in more people and release new groups (similar to NijiEN). I submitted an application to a job once and 2 years later they called me to ask me if I was interested in a position. Chances are that back when they originally created the job posting they were not really looking for people but they knew that in the near future they would need them.

I somehow can feel the treerat's power from this.. Risu's too powerful that even soundclips + animated versions of her have the same power

Damn this style of animation really does work well with her voice.

There is literally no difference between it being a lie, and Vshojo just going for nepotism.

I could accept it just being nepotism and kangaroo auditions for those who could bring in guaranteed money, but at the same time Snuffy mentioned she applied for Vshojo and got knocked back and she's both their biggest orbiter and an already very successful indie with a large audience. For all she said she applied a day late, sure, but given how close she is with multiple members I'd doubt that would matter at all.
The whole thing has too much of an air of confusion. They're clearly looking for something but what that criteria is no-one can make sense of. I remember IronMouse mentioning that all the current members have individual veto powers over any applicants, so who knows, maybe it's as simple as Vei's got her matches out again to keep the competition down.

If Vei has Veto power then no way Shylily or any soft seductive voices get in cause we all know that is trademark Vei

I loved the meme someone posted earlier of IRyS, where she has a normal thought but something happens from the brain to the mouth to cause it to come out in the most yab way ever.

Do you ever get the feeling the people you like most are legitimately autistic? (That or she's using humour as a coping mechanism). I hope things work out for her and her sister.

I thought she was, but I'm not up-to-date on her. Maybe she hates Vshojo that much.

Regardless, I think she's just using humor... but, you never know.

I heard Coco & Kanata moved

Yes, both moved in February this year.
Suisei lived with her sister Anemachi until now. I wonder if they continue to live together (if they don't end up on the street)

You know how autistic the Japanese bureaucracy can be. It's probably some stupid stuff like "You need to move out by this date or get charge another full month" combined with "We still processing paper work so you can't move in yet" from her new place. And Suisei just love to be dramatic and make funny situation from mundane stuff (remember how make a big deal out of demonetization and pretend to live without electricity)?

KanaCoco already moved out together a few months ago, citing wanting a bigger place for themselves (which is probably bigger room for Kson's CodeMiko-like 3D equipments.) Suisei and her sister still live in the same apartment but that probably end this month.

Sounds like she is probably living her last month of the contract in her current house without having a new one as she thought she would, doesn't sound that serious to me
