You know..it's such a minor thing. But for whatever reason, Mumei's "Oh hi" just fucking kills me. Everyone tries so hard to have a special greeting and she just says fuck it.

And yet it loops right back around to being unique I used to associate it with The Room now its Mumei

Ultimately this is not Vox's fault and even someone who 'panders' to China for money wouldn't anticipate something as strange and banal as this would set them off.

it's one of those things that's like I'm surprised it set them off, but also not at the same time.
Like no reasonable person would have expected it, but then at the same time when I heare some trivial nonsense made the chinese seethe I just think "of fucking course it did"

 

[Big PiPi Energy]

I didn't see this posted here but maybe I missed it over the weekend. Old school vidya game company Sunsoft has its own vtuber now they use for announcements.

 

[A Lurking Dumbass]

Fulgur is going to debut on Bilibili. I dont know if I can hold on supporting chink panderers bros. All of Noctyx and eventually perhaps all of NijiEN is going to soon. It's only a matter of time

 

[Rratcatcher]

Waiting room for the anniversary is up. Gonna be a VR chat collab. Expecting yet another feels attack at some point in the anniversary...

I feel this. I could never explain why, it's just super casual but somehow comfy lol


Last night feels exactly like why I said to not write off Rust 3 days into a "new season" honestly. Some of them are still a little awkward around the JPs but it's clearly evident most of EN can get on board with being little shits to each other and doing some pvp trolling. I do agree that maybe they should sacrifice chat for more fun. You'll never make everyone happy with that level of dumbassery and you're never going to get the full experience with people constantly trying to give you info either. Like I get if streamer asks about what house they're at or something but tattling about how someone is hunting you just defeats the purpose and fun of it all.

Anyway, what I'm really hoping for is the arc where Kiara's weak heart, after getting abused by a few of the girls several times, ignites her ancestral blood and she drafts the a number of girls into her new executive order. At which point she finally decides enough is enough, realizes humanity needs a "new kind of idol" and cleanses the Rust world of the weak in nuclear Hellfire under her new ironfist. Killing For Purity is inherently within her genes. It only needs awakened with the right catalyst.

That's pretty much where I'm at.

And even though it's not an exact science, most V-Tuber drama fizzles out after 2-7 days and people forget it even happened. I bet until I mention now that Luca dealt with a similar situation because Chinese fans took issue with him using the word 'liar', most people here would've forgot.

So much happens and so little of it ever really matters. Vox will likely survive this on the basis that he hasn't tripped over a CCP political pitfall and even if they all fucked off he'd still at least have a career.

Interestingly - and this is kind of a side note - but the Chinese fans haven't taken to ILUNA at all so far, and they're enjoying what seems to be an entirely new Western fanbase that doesn't overlap with existing members. Maria and Scarle are making the most money despite three men also being in the Wave (of which all 3 men get better CCV). They're much more like a return to the LazuLight/Obsydia/Ethyria days.

 

[kadmckool]

My limit for helping out with Niji info is having to use BiliBili because that site is a fucking travesty and I'll never learn how to navigate it out of spite.

I just find it funny that NijiEN say shit that regularly ekes beyond the scope of what you'd expect is allowed from one of the big corpos and it's a fucking 'your mum' joke that caused this. Enna jokingly wishes harm on her parents and not-so-jokingly wishes harm on her stepmother and they're all actually Chinese/Asian.

Ultimately this is not Vox's fault and even someone who 'panders' to China for money wouldn't anticipate something as strange and banal as this would set them off.

West Taiwanese demanded Vox said something on stream to show support for 1 China any % RTA.

 

[Anchors-Away]

ILUNA isn't for me either, but I am happy they've found some sort of footing within the Western space. As EN expands, the meme of "unity" will finally come to an end; because it's next to impossible to support 30+ talents on a regular basis.

I wonder if the girls dong better has anything to do with them and Tempus debuting at the same time. The guys' potential viewership got spread over 7 people. I don't know what niche ILUNA guys fill and how they overlap with Tempus, but the girls having only 3 people lergely benefits them if you assume they don't overlap with Tempus at all.

Iluna would be so much better if the tranny and male leech werent there. Kyo, rape girl, latino, and the doll are pretty good.

Also best season enjoyer

Not going to lie, I actually get a craving for shitty 7/11 food sometimes and it would be cool if places like it in the USA had Japan levels of selection

 

[EliteDoragon]

Lmao that sounds about right for the nuwave fans to sperg out over something so stupid. iRyS and bae were both actively encouraging the chat sniping last night as Bae followed chats tips to iRyS first time around, iRyS shot Mumei of her own design a lot of her chat was actually "don't shoot mooms give her guitar back". Chat goads her to go after Bae yeah but at that point it was either encourage a gang war or watch them all spend 3 hours gambling again - at no point did I hear either of them say anything about stream sniping or chat involvement until toward the end iRyS stated she'd ignore chat, after that it was dropped by most except the people still spamming her to switch to members only chat.


I wonder how much of the concern trolling is actually antis or just others trying to stir up shit though.

Besides w/e the actual rules of the server are, which seem to be more like suggestions than hard rules, people probably have a lot of expectations from the Twitch Rust meta which had a LOT of drama from meta gaming. Most of the drama was from streamers reading chat to hunt people or to avoid ambushes while doing that was forbidden.
Thats why people were getting triggered over both Bae and iRyS actively using and encouraging chat to find and kill each other.
Calli's chat was mostly well behaved so she didn't have to do any tard wrangling, but Gura and Ame were definitely bothered by chat snitching over everything.

[Not an NSA Plant 69]

I haven't seen this mentioned yet in the thread. Production Kawaii has released the Names, Twitter handles and Youtube channels of their Gen3.

View attachment 3628625
Here are their official logos.

Aletta Sky: Twitter : Youtube Half Pegasus so half horse girl?
Peony Aeria: Twitter : Youtube Plant/nature girl, possibly a Fauna knockoff.
Sava Safari Twitter : Youtube Beast princess, has cat ears and horns,
Oceane Otoishi Twitter : Youtube Ocean themed, possible a mermaid (she does have legs though).
Miryu Kotofuji Twitter : Youtube Dragon Girl, teaser shots give the impression that she share color scheme with Meno from Prism.

Teaser trailer is due up soon, so if there are vocals we may be able to attach PLs to these names soon.

Project Kawaii released the character teaser with vocal lines.

All are English speakers (some ESL).

Aletta Sky: She is anime horse girl with wings, she pushed out a sarcastic twitlonger thats admit's shes brit bong, likely made due to Peony mentioning that she it British. Also of note is that her bird app follows include most of PC gen2 and some former CL talents, specifically the members of Aetheria and Yuri.

Peony Aeria: She is a Fauna knock off visually and vocally, she also speaks German and Spanish, twitter location is Germany, will likely be quickly IDed as a Euro-ASMR streamer.

Sava Safari: A talented artist from the art she's posted so far, PL has been tenetively IDed as @GezuDayo a twitch streamer whom graduated early this month. Follows several Prism and Aetheria members.

Relevant comparison video.

Oceane Otoishi: The model matches well with her voice, it definitely activates the neurons. If she embraces it she'll rake in cash. She has a slight SEA accent, likely Indonesian. Her twitter follows peg her as a normie zoomer, so obvious comparisons to Erina will be made. Her follows also include most of PC gen2, Amyia and Rita from Prism.

Miryu Kotofuji: Dragon girl sounds sounds very Kawaii possibly an Aussie. Her follows on twitter are interesting in that besides her genemates and some company follows, she also follows Shiina, Rie, Char, and Lisa.

If anyone with time or more familiarity with recent graduations wants help with PLs, I would appreciate it.

Edit: Note that Twitter follows can be a indicator pointing to previous associations, but can also indicate people that they maybe interested in collaborating with in the future.

I don't think Tempus and ILUNA have much overlap. I would wager that Tempus are largely overlapping with existing Hololive fans that aren't retards about male V-Tubers, and are taking advantage of them being the 'new thing' and also HoloEN's comparably lesser time streaming.

There's a bit more to my thought process but it's autistic and largely only supported by me eyeballing certain things and no actual analytics to support it, but my current belief is that a large portion of ILUNA's viewership are entirely new to the NijiEN community.

It just goes to show that each streamer has their own wants from their gaming experience, which shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

I personally give zero shits about 'backseating' for solo content, but part of the fun of these games is to watch them do whacky shit with or against each other, and people spoiling traps or secrets kills that pretty quick.

anyone watches Altare from tempest? in my opinion, his the weakest of the bunch and his suppose to be the "leader".

i just dont dig that fake soft spoken voice and he seems to be a big E-sport fag.

I don't think that voice is fake, when he legit screamed about Shaco from League his voice was cracking as he tried to raise his voice to scream and I've heard much louder screams from people who are gamer raging. I think he is just a soft spoken man with gamer rage somewhere deep within from his time as a super sweaty tryhard gamer rager. I've met people with soft voices, it isn't that impossible for his voice to just be soft.

To my recollection he didn't get involved in E-sports, though he could of as I recall him saying that he was invited to go pro in Overwatch sometime ago but turned it down due to the commitment of being a professional player.

Altare is fine though, I don't watch his Zelda stuff as I'm not into Zelda but I like his roguelike stuff and when he is in a collab. His soft voice also makes his snark funnier because he was considered the uwu soft boy when he first debuted. If he should be leader though, I dunno, he is might be the best general gamer out of all of them if that counts for something.

He streams a bit too early for me but I do enjoy him. The voice doesn't filter me and he says some wild shit sometimes which you wouldnt expect from him.

Seems the rushia's wedding ring have arrived to some. It didn't fit on their finger

Don't want to be that person that stereotypes but neckbeard unicorns are not known for being skinny.

Sleepy Dragon is awake, Nasa posted on twitter she is doing a guerilla collab playing Valorant with some other smaller JP tubers, she isn't streaming her POV.

This fuckig game filters me so hard.

Council anniversary animation.

Cute. Did they finally show what was at the top of Sana's tower in Minecraft?

In Enna's case its self depreciating vs here its one member saying something to another and it being interpreted as a personal attack. While NijiEN says some weird and fucked up shit (which I enjoy) most of it is not really directed at anyone in specific.

I didn't see this posted here but maybe I missed it over the weekend. Old school vidya game company Sunsoft has its own vtuber now they use for announcements.

I feel like we will have a MONKEYISM situation where, just like SJWs, pandering to the China crowd will only backfire when they start demanding shit from you and those around you because they said 1 wrong thing which was probably out of context.

I wonder if the girls dong better has anything to do with them and Tempus debuting at the same time. The guys' potential viewership got spread over 7 people. I don't know what niche ILUNA guys fill and how they overlap with Tempus, but the girls having only 3 people lergely benefits them if you assume they don't overlap with Tempus at all.

Maybe yes, but also I don't really know what the ILuna boys bring to the table then again its only been 1 month and it probably takes like 3 for them to find their place.

Don't think anyone mentioned this but I really love this Thumbnail. Hope one of them picks up FFT (possibly the best FF game).
