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

Those are really cute. Although, I wonder how the Arknigs players feel about them, because I know for a fact that they fucking detest Jackie, the character Ina's roommate drew, and not just because she's kinda bad in the game, but specifically because of Ina/Nagu. I think the Taiwan incident also got Ina/Nagu cucked out of more work with Girls Frontline, because the last thing she did for that game was a character almost two years ago, even though she drew one of the most popular skins in the whole game, for the main character, no less.
All of Arknights player just didn't bother with Jackie because she's off-meta and there are already a significantly better unit.

If I'm not wrong the autism, schizoism and mental retardation of NGA doesn't reach the gacha game community, most people who plays those kinds of games just doesn't care about those kind of stuff.

If I remember right, Jackie consistently comes in last in Chinese popularity polls, and they often just ban people from voting for her, even though her design is very cute and inoffensive. From what I've picked up from a couple different forums is, this started happening after the Taiwan incident, and after they figured out Nagu was actually a holomember.
 
My rrat is that she is pregnant, bring those puzzles i need to rise the moral in this thread

I’m really going to miss her. She was just so damned weird, it was a nice addition to the group dynamic. If she hadn’t had such shit luck, and could have better balanced her art career with her streaming, and didn’t fuck up her back, she really could have come into her own. There were glimpses of truly cracked out greatness; I’ll always remember her decision that it would make good content to design a nightmare horse monster and then demand that the CEO birth it. Not that he endorse it, or that it be made her mascot. She specifically asked Yagoo to gestate and give man-birth to a horrible horse monster, and I don’t know how long it will take to get another girl with that kind of artistic vision. Godspeed, Sana.

It does the staff though, unfortunately. Ai Kayano as a VA being deleted from like 3-4 mobage because she visited a shrine without thinking about it that the Chinese don't like still grinds my gears.

It may be partially the reason but if the character was meta, even the most diehard nationalist gacha players would find a way to rationalize their love of the character if at all possible. If there were two banners and players were forced to pull between one with a meta character that was literally just a giant penis and another with an off-meta character that was a big tiddy anime girl, they'd pull on the giant penis banner 10/10.

Meta > gender. Meta > politics. Meta > enjoyment.

It might just be because Arknights players are a whole different breed, and they're the Chinese equivalent of hardcore SJWs. The giant wave of gacha game censorship that happened last year was because they were assmad that Azure Lane was getting coomer skins, and that they're better than that, so they reported the game to the chink police, causing a giant censorship wave in multiple games. As I've said, Ina's character, and the skin she did in GFL are still very popular, and there's no asspain over them. Chink gacha autism is such a tangled web of incredible retardation, dog eating blood feuds, and backstabbing.

related ina art tax, for sperging out:

It's a realistic one though Sana wasn't even doing the bare minimum requirement from what we know about Cover's 1st year contract. We know bare minimum that a talent for the first year has to at least stream 1 hour 3 times a week. Sick time and injuries are given a lot of leeway however even after her initial recovery she was still struggling to get out 1 or 2 streams a week.
 
Ina inapregnated her and that's why she cried on the minecraft stream.
Ina broke Sana's back, she should be sad Sana is graduating.

Cover takes some chances and people like Mori and Kobo work out while Sana did not. Sana came into Hololive upfront about how she wanted to stream to branch out of just doing art streams and focus only on what she likes to do. I was a day one Sanalite, supported her until she went ghost after back broken. I still loved to watch her but gave that money to indies instead. She leaves the same way she came in, on her own terms. I am super sad that she couldn't make it work cause she seemed to have fun when streaming.

If anyone would come back I can imagine Sana doing so. Her total numbers are not impressive but she is good at building a community and it would be interesting to see how many members she kept thru all her breaks. Come back next summer Sana!

I look forward to the mental gymnastics routine /vt/ will perform to twist this around somehow because pink woman bad.
/vt? why go there where you probably can find them here?? i mean theres already people here who is going for "sana graduate because number/rarely stream contradicting theres other member that also rarely stream but don't graduate".


well feel bad for her fans,but i don't think anyone really surprised that sana is the one who graduate,its not even myth,its council,which is clear that its her own personal case/reason.sana fans can go to her roommate youtube channel i forgot the name,but i think its here somewhere.

I was about to post that exact same sentiment that was in your image. Damn my propensity to read the whole thread instead of posting immediately lol.

I doubt it was as simple or as far-fetched as some people insinuate but it's neither a surprise nor i think it will make that much of an impact, sure, it's sad and all, but Sana was the smallest member and didn't contribute that much to anything nor had very interesting dynamics with other members, neither is her story that interesting.

She isn't like Aloe, who was like a slap in the face for most of the western audience as they witnessed their first graduation, or Coco who's career burned down around her for months before finally going out in a blaze of glory that will never be forgotten, or even Rushia, who caused one of the biggest dramafests in the community and was then unceremoniously pruned from the lineup without even saying goodbye.

Sana to me is just unremarkable in all aspects, a quiet career and a quiet graduation, to be remembered only by the few fans she ever managed to get.
Definitely this. To the other EN girls, at least the ones who knew her even mildly, it's probably sad and depressing. Especially Ina.

But the fans? Most people are just shrugging their shoulders. "Ah, that's sad. Oh well, nothing to do about it." and moving on. Unless some big drama gets revealed, I doubt Sana will even be brought up again after three months.
It pains me to agree with both of your posts, but you're completely right in my opinion. It's a shame that it has to be this way. From my perspective, as a guy who felt no particular strong feelings for her, I hate feeling like the 'wasted slot' insult now retroactively seems true. I never fell in with her even before her whole dead dog arc kicked off her irregularity issue, but because she was a Holo I wanted her to give her best effort to succeed. I know she had the back issue, and I can personally sympathize with her on that front, but it really felt like she wasn't trying. She may have very well been trying her hardest, but she made no effort to really communicate that with the general fanbase. She just felt very distant. I hate to agree that she'll likely be quickly forgotten, but I believe it's true, and I wish it wasn't.

I was shocked for less than 5 seconds when I saw she was leaving HoloEN. It unfortunately felt like she wasn't ever really part of it. Maybe it comes through in the tone of my post, but I just feel disappointed with her time in Hololive. I can only really wish her the best as a general courtesy, and I hope her medical issues are resolved.
