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

rrat. Management forced Finana to walk back the trap ban because they knew they had one in the next wave.

July 22: 1 half of Holo Tempus debuts
July 23: 2nd half of Holo Tempus
July 24: Iluna debuts

A stacked couple of days
I'm back again because of this debut schedule (might be lurking again after this). I hope that they debuting this gen/wave now means that there'll be summer related merch.

The new Nijis look 10x better than Tempus.

Yeah, don't quite like the holotempus design. I like Regis design better, but feels like it still lacking. FYI the illust/mama for Regis is the illust for utapri, fire emblem 3 house (FE3H), and some otome game. Like why he looks like that? His design can be so much better!

Bet hololive want to stay true to RPG theme and I'm glad that they have a variety, but judging from the market now... you better go full bishounen and idol pretty faces.

But will see how it turns out this weekend.
 
Check out the deceased tag for two others, one died in a car accident two days shy of her anniversary
That shit fucked me up. Apparently, it was some asshole on a truck/trailer reversing into the highway.

This is a kid and its going to end in a trainwreck just like Kiki the /vt/ rabbit. I would advise against watching children stream for the entertainment of bored channers.
Yeah this can only end poorly.

I dont like them.
It's probably the language disconnect, but they sound way too faggy, they sound like the kind of fags who would identify as non-binary or some other faggotry term.
Not holding my breath, but I dont expect the west to know how to handle traps.

I'm probably holding them to unreasonably high standards.
No, its not the standards.
First one's voice is super off. Second one sounds like a loli, voice doesnt really fit that well. Third one's voice is not great but I can see it. Fourth one's voice fits the 2nd design more. If she speaks more softly and maybe with a deeper voice she could save it. Fith one should probably have a deeper voice but not terrible. Six one possibly has one that matches the most (reminds me of Violet Evergarden character). The Designs are good though.

who the fuck spends time making these games

edit: ninja'd; fuck you big pipi energy
12 year olds and Pippa. This shit filters me. I just have them in the background and im watching Shiina playing Holocure.
 
Following all 6 of them was a mistake. My timeline is fully flooded with the entirety of NijiEN farming engagement lol.

Probably feeling alright, it's pretty important to remember that even while we shit talk behind the scenes here and people insist on comparing everything Holo vs Niji. Every single person in both of these announced waves for either company just landed a sweet gig that will bring them an audience that can sustain them. Even the least successful of the batch is going to end up being a success by general streamer standards. (barring anything actually extraordinary like someone pulling an Aloe or some shit)
No doubt. I'm probably still going to watch more of Tempus because I have a soft spot for HoloEN and I consume a lot of Holo content. My bitterness is probably coming from a feeling that Tempus are getting done dirty and have an uphill battle even before they debut through circumstances they have no say over.
 
Those awful voice lines in the PV did them no service. They would have been better off with no voices than sounding like budget JRPG English dub VAs from the 2000s. Ruined an otherwise cool video.

Still less cringe than Tempus' video lmao
They've been doing them pretty much from the beginning, they come up with dumb cheesy lines for it. Don't worry, it's nothing compared to the brutal, controversial, torturous hazing ritual that some may call worse than Holocaust - the weirdly scripted Nijiscenario that every debuting gen does and considers a batsu.
To be fair, Luxiem's wasn't the worst, so a 20% chance not to be pain is better than some of them are probably used to, if they're into gacha.

Watching Finana's PGR stream since I play it sometimes and she's the residential gacha EN, I like how she got "upset" about "trap", but seems more than okay with using "twink" herself. Hope she doesn't get groomed or anything.

This kinda stuff is why I hope we never get an EN HoloGra. Given how bad UMISEA was, I can't imagine it would be anything but cringe, unless they started at the same chaotic energy as regular HoloGra.

On the other hand, at least NijiEN actually does something with their channel.
 
I'm guessing Akatora Chimon from Hanamori being one of them is probably a safe bet


You joke but I've seen several of that exact take from twitter because Cover "won't" unfuck Sana's back
I'm waiting for their debut before I fully look into it but I have a very good feeling at least 2 are very close to Elira.
