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

I don't think I have seen it here
Better safe than sorry, here's the onsite archive:

I knew some of her real life footage only from pictures

There is so much happening right now and even without all that debuts I'm having trouble watching any streams lately. Thank god there are clippers out there. Hope there will be some proper ID tours soon, this server looks great

Also Figaro's crowfunding campaign was successful, didn't take 24 hours for her to reach the goal.

Actually the 100 % goal was reached within 3 minutes lol

(Maybe @Scuttle can help with Ren Zotto = Sweeto theory?)
I can, actually.

During Luca's stream today, he let it slip that ILUNA has two Aussies but that one of them doesn't have the accent. He also said that he hasn't spoken to Maria much at all because she's been sick.

So my assumption is that he's speaking to Ren a lot and knows he doesn't have the accent. Ren made a tweet saying that he and Luca are 'communicating in Aussie', which could just indicate that they're talking about things only Australians know, but might also indicate that he's talking in his native accent. This is significant because Sweetotoons is Australian but has an American-ish accent.

Himechin does have an Australian accent. I'd argue it's more subtle than Ban Hada's, but Luca is going to recognise it as Aussie. Maria and Ren also remained awake when the others slept (it seems Aia is on an NA time zone and isn't based in Vietnam).

So, right now I'd be more confident that Sweetotoons is in Niji.

Tempus seems to be, based on what I've found and others are saying:
Axel - An OTV orbiter of some kind
Regis - HanByeol
Noir - Randon
Magni - Professor Lando

I think Himechin is actually half chinese/ half brit who is living in Aussie land. So her accent is fucked.

Edit: Miko is having a Minecraft existential crisis after seeing Kaela's elytra collection.

If Professor Lando actually got in, may God have mercy on us all

I've never watched him so I can't form an opinion, and I haven't looked too hard myself. I'm just keeping stock of what the leading rrats are due to the Holo/Niji overlap and the consensus in this thread seems to suggest that it's Lando.

Is he not very well liked or something?

He popped up on my recs last year. His channel mainly has videos that are styled as lectures on various weeb shit like "what are vtubers" or "what is a tomboy". As far as I know he is a competent entertainer and judging on his content alone I think he can carry his weight. Maybe people don't like him because he likes to remind people that he is a...half Korean half Taiwanese bisexual dude?

Edit: could also be the people he associates with - Saruei for eg

Final solo Sana stream. Pako already dropped a hundo on it.

And so ends Sana's final solo stream, pre-graduation.

God that fucking hurt.

Sana definitely tried to explain about the Cover PR note, and it sounds like it was designed to be vague, but then kind of backed out on explaining because it was leaning on info she didn't want to share, probably for the best.

I think I'm breathing in copium, but it sounded like that the intention was to leave a backdoor open for Sana to come back down the line, whenever that is. Obviously I'm not going to have my hopes up.

The lyrics of Astrogirl was apparently fairly intentional, and if an Original Song takes months to create, she probably knew a long time ago she was going to graduate, but kept trying because of the fans.

There are still stuff left to do regarding the graduation, so it's probably going to be pre-recorded. No more streams on the youtube channel except the final one but twitter spaces are still on the cards with multiple other talents who reached out to her late.

Apparently stuff for the SMOL stream is still being worked on, so it's going to be tight.


....I think I need to lie down for a bit.. why does it hurt this much
 
Considering the turn-out rate and sheer number of applications, Niji EN Wave 7 for November?
We'll have to wait and see.

Niji tend to go dark on opening auditions when they have future waves lined up. Six waves and counting but only 4 auditions in 3 audition cycles (Dec. 2020, Jun-Aug. 2021, Mar. 2022) which means NijiEN didn't actually recruit new people at all for 7 months.

In other words, if they don't open a new audition sometime in the next week or two then they probably already have Wave 7 and it could even be September. I hope not, though. Six people really is a lot to only give two months, even four is pushing it. It's not like LazuLight and Obsydia where their staggered release only amounted to one member more than the average Holo gen.

Haven't all the waves been given around three months tops until the next drop?
