He just seems to randomly @ people instead of using hashtags or whatever lol. Did the same with Debi. Not sure what his intent is, but I also don't see the big deal.

Not to 'akshually' you but he did have an exchange with Debi-sama right before that tweet and it seemed to be an extension of that. Debi also seems to be his JP Oshi so ehh.

There's been a lot more cross-company activity since ILUNA dropped though. It's quite strange if Kiara's words are to be taken at face value.

I see now, missed that before, thanks.

As much as I'd love to say this is pointing to possibly future collabs, I still doubt it. Seems like they have just been using the hype of everyone debuting around the same time for mutual benefit, more than anything. Though if it does happen, I hope only Kiara and Pomu aren't allowed to collab, just because that would be fucking hilarious to watch the related fallout.

Edit: Reddit is big mad, too lol. https://www.reddit.com/r/VirtualYou...pna_project_weekly_discussion_thread/iiiq82k/

Looks like Holobros in full meltdown mode over this lol. Yet people continue to wonder why so many feel Vtuber fans are some of the most bottom barrel humans.

Got a good giggle out of this but I do wonder why he did it. He seems to like riling people up, in the iluna collab he acted like a complete idiot to annoy kyo, so I wouldn't be surprised if he was doing this for shits and giggles. Then again, it's been shown that he's not that knowledgable about vtubing. In his mc stream he thought the niji logo was a chain chomp puking up rainbows. He usually chalks these mistakes up as him being an alien so who knows how much of it is just him acting or him being stupid.

On the topic of ILUNA and the males in particular:

It doesn't actually seem like the main iceberg of Chinese fujos have found them yet. With the exception of Maria, who has acquired herself some generous Japanese patrons for her speaking fluency and cute voice, the rest of ILUNA's donations are a total mixed bag of nationalities - myself eyeballing them as majority USA.

This may change this week as the wave is allowed to engage the rest of the branch, but for the time being it seems that a majority of their viewers are coming from new Western fans because they don't cannibalise streams of their EN senpai at all.

My guess is that ILUNA will potentially be a less lucrative in terms of SC donations but will incline similar to Ethyria. My reasoning is that I get the sense that people aren't quite sure where they fit into the system until they see this week's collabs.

I'm not familiar with Canada, do people actually go camping in the winter in Canda? I thought Canadian winters were supposed to be pretty brutal, not something people would camp in.

Sooooo we probably have some kind of connection there behind the scenes. The irony in all this is that they're two corporate V-Tubers that are in relationships and are therefore the absolute last people insecure Holotards should be protective of and threatened by.

You get the occasional rrat that X and Y broke up which gives the schizos something to believe in. Or they could be schizos who don't care about reality and just want to pretend, like the fujo's sending death threats after vox had his roleplay interrupted, truth didn't matter they just hated the other girl for breaking the fantasy.

Again out of curiosity, what does Ren do? He's the only member of Iluna on this table. Magni is also the only member of Tempus, but his audience is represented in this thread whereas Ren's audience isn't.

Honestly, it's pretty simple: Ren's model is hot.

He's also got a nice speaking voice, he can sing really well, and his personality might be a little bland but he interacts with fans in a fairly likeable, charismatic way. His debut week schedule was also fairly strong (well, out of six mediocre schedules) and his numbers were boosted by having the first 'collab' (no voice) with two popular members (Pomu and Luca) showing him around the EN Minecraft server. But I think people underestimate how much a nice model affects your debut week, at least.

A keyword search of the thread turns up nothing, so I'm gonna assume this hasn't been brought up here yet. If you all know about this already you gotta clock me real good, deal?

Anyway, here's the story. Late last year I was randomly recommended a Hololive fan animation from a tiny channel with only a couple of videos. I liked it so I subscribed. The channel was called Gray Scaling.

The guy didn't keep doing vtuber animations, however. Instead he focused on making short (~30 sec) animations of his own original characters. These were mostly funny/sexy shorts though there would occasionally be one with a darker tone. Kind of like Telepurte.



So why do I bring it up? Well, because of this.
GrayScalingTalentRequest_01.png

That's right, the dude went fishing for talent to bring one of his characters to life as a vtuber. And what's more, he got one.

This is Aka, Gray Scaling's first vtuber. She started out as a png, but as you can see GS set her up with a fully functional rig in July.

And it didn't stop there. Just last week his other character Lani debuted her new rig.

Not content making Hololive fan content, this guy Gray Scaling is basically building a virtual harem out of his own OC's. (If you're wondering about the guy himself, he has a stream with full face cam up on his second channel.)

Are Aka and Lani any good? I don't know, I haven't watched any of their streams. I'm just impressed with what the guy has done in just a few months, and I thought you guys would be interested.

Oh, and one more thing. He's still recruiting.

Apparently it is bad Twitter etiquette to @ people directly and he should have replyed to a posting of her's or some shit like that. Along with the connection he has to her rommate, it is apparently enough to make the schizos seethe.

Wait Twitter has etiquette?

I wish him luck, these tiny agencies are really a mixed bag, he could be a cool boss that supports his talents and his community, orrr a total creep that ends up ruining the whole thing and is only remembered in a couple twitlongers and a couple posts in this thread. More interviews for pippers?

As said above, it is apparently bad twitter etiquette to @ someone you've never interacted with publicly. Not to mention it is a niji male interacting with one of the holo girls. Saw some say that he put her in a tough spot by @ her because now she either ignores it and gets labeled as rude or she responds and gets people angry for interacting with a male. I find these outcomes ridiculous because who is going to care about this in a couple days?

Winter camping is definitely less popular than in the summer. That being said, there are still a lot of people who head out into the woods for the weekend. From personal experience, snow makes a fantastic insulator so unless you're woefully underprepared, it's not too difficult to stay warm.

Given her preference to not do any unnecessary physical activity, I'd say winter camping definitely suits her personality. In the summer, there are all sorts of things to do once you've set up your site. In the winter, there's less to do (unless you go seek them out actively), so you're just spending your time bundled up, loaded with heavy food, and just really looking out at snow and nature.

People are mad because they think its too much of a "roomate link," because shachimu and Ren's wife or some shit used to interact with each other fairly frequently, they keep sperging that its a "breach of vtuber etiquette" to refer to their friendship when they were not vtubers

Ironically nobody would know of that connection otherwise in that thread if the schizos didnt bring it up to seethe about it

The only place I could see her camping in the winter would be on the west coast where it rains instead.
