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

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Alright, I confess I got accepted into HomostarsEN and I will be debuting as “Alex James Murphy” aka ロボコップ. A police officer from the near-future struggling with amnesia and his newfound cyborg enhancements tasked with taming a crime-ridden society for a more peaceful future ahead.

As proof I give you my promo material:
 
Re: HoloStarsEN/Tempus

I'm eager to see their models and see if I can tell which codename goes with each model. For ID3 I could tell immediately, but not for Luxiem, Noctyx or Uproar. With HoloX and Phase 2 I blanked on even the codenames. Not that it affects their content much.

Right now I don't regularly watch any male Vtubers. Even leaving out gachikoi or strawman idol culture or yumejos and other possible drama, co-ed collabs will have a different dynamic - that's the whole reason people want to see them - and that dynamic may not be to my taste. I'm still cautiously optimistic.

@Fourth # so this is what omega has been working on all this time. I'm a bit worried that they may want to pre-establish some character dynamics with this, and we all know how well that turns out.
I remember similar sentiments around HoloX's debut. But so far on stream they've always interacted the way you would assume from their lore. When it works, it works. When it doesn't, there's not much consequence to dropping it - recent events aside, which are a bit late for them to learn from.

Edit: @Just a Basic Plebian re: clip (can't quote)
Kobo: (strums guitar) AAAAAAA
Kobo: I cannot sing while I'm crying... I'm sorry...
Sana: I thought that was the song.

Godspeed, Sana.



"I don't understand English but it's nice to hear the voices." Relatable sentiment.

Bae got a custom case by IBUYPOWER, preorders only available in Japan and Indonesia are you man enough to rrat with it

Passing, but if it was a shork or possibly other themed one (maybe Fauna or Mumei), gods help me...



Not really interested in male vtubers, but I'll probably watch the debuts and see if any of them change my mind.


IRyS is fiddling with RE3's settings because her model's going at like 1 fps. It's just amusing how much trouble her model's giving her trouble from the design, to the lack of outfits and now this.

Everyone seems to be having trouble with their live2d models the past couple days. I've seen both Gura and Fauna complaining about it freezing up and such on their streams. Seems like there must be some update to their software they pushed that borked things.


The idea that cover can just unfreeze talent from the cryo vats in case of yab is stupid. It takes half a year at least to get a new gen ready for debut.

This thread feels like it has been invaded lately by the "cover=bad, horrible black company, no matter what they do" crowd lately and I'm not sure why. There's always been a few but just seems like it has gone way up recently.


The dormant gremlin energy, esoteric internet lore knowledge and other strange things she can bring up at times I think is kind of at odds with the image she characterizes. It really makes me wonder just what kind of person she is offstream or what kind of shit she could do if she just unleashed a bit more of her power level.

Considering her first non-council collab (if I remember correctly) was with Gura and she basically admitted to being a chumbud, it doesn't surprise me that she is knowledgeable in the gremlin and meme ways, even if she hides it well. That's when she started growing on me and I've enjoyed her since.
 
They also kept Holostars around the entire time and supported them (Yagoo was even their personal manager for a while before Shinove came in and Shinove is also well liked) despite their relative obscurity in comparison to the rest of Hololive. That's coupled with the fact that Holostars even has their own version of Hologra so yeah people claiming that Cover entirely makes decisions based on just making money and pulling EA levels of scumbaggery for a quick buck is either talking out their ass or straight up lying.
In a recent interview about HoloEarth Tanigo said "I think it will take five or ten years for HoloEarth to get on track". This is the man who had the confidence to say that a million subs is possible to someone who didn't even have a thousand:

I can't imagine someone with that attitude endorsing extreme short term thinking like manipulating a graduation for hype.

It’s not like people don’t do the same thing with other companies on here.
 
Fauna possibly having pipkin makes me wonder why Gura really found her so fascinating and what they talked about.

Fauna: Hey, Gura, have you ever heard of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion...?
Again (seems most of you missed it) but FallenShadow, who was part of Fauna's old clique, follows and often interacts with Pippa on Twitter. It is possible the connection comes from there.
 
Kobo is muting her mic, she's crying right now. Even Sana is holding back her tears
This is painful Kiwichama, this is painful
I definitely can’t watch it again, but for those that missed it.
God damit... I can feel this is going to be the first of many instances like this, my poor doki doki can't handle all this.

We still got 15 days with many more collabs to come. Buckle up lads, it gonna be a shit ride...
 
I dunno, I think some of this is getting close to tribalposting. Every one of those 3 has carved out their own niche and they all offer something to different people. For instance if you love China and giving virtual bj's to your oshi, then Niji is great. If you like literal whores, Vshoujo is your go-to. And then Hololive is for everyone else.

Edit:

Everyone is all whores, life is a lie.
 
Not really. Criticizing Holo is much cooler thing to do here. There is no company that gets criticize here over their live2D more than hololive.
exactly,saying that other company is the same as cover/holo doompost here is just pure BS lmao,the worst part is most of it about cover are literal "RRATS",while like vshojo for example,people worrying about kson vshojo make sense,vshojo reputation so far is not good,atleast compared to other company.
