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

She compared it to long running anime series when they struggle in special episodes and a special characters shows up to help defeat the baddies.
First thing that came to my mind:

spoonfeed me, why is a vtumor making her relationship public?

also does she have a picture instead of her weird coomer avatar
Froot is a sociopath. Much like Rekieta it's never her fault.
She threw a colleague of hers under the bus because they played hogwarts. How dare she not care about the troons and play a video game that loosely involves JK Rowlings!
She cheated on her ex while he was in military service. - But he was mean to her so its clearly his fault
She claimed to do a big troon donation matching the number of likes her tweets got to money she would give, but the money never showed up.
As others are filling you in on her too. Her mom is some kind of helicopter parent that thinks her little baby can do no wrong.
They're British on top of it all.
 
This past year, many within Hololive have alluded to the "companies vision" for the future; some calling it a shift in culture. Aqua's departure was a great example of this talking point in this very thread.
Aqua herself said that she was graduating to live her life. That was the main reason for her graduation. The company policy that Cover has was a reason, but not the main one.

Didn't Froot date Bettel at some point in the past, or I'm mistaken? If that's the case it seems like he has dodged a bullet.
All we know with certainty about Bettel and Froot is that they were acquaintances. We never had any confirmation that they were a couple, let alone friends.
 
People on TVA are speculating she's going to be put into a management role, basically becoming A-chan for HoloEN.
Without dumping power level, I think Cover's been looking for a way to not burn valuable IP when a talent they are on good terms with either chooses or is "forced" to graduate. This becomes super important once fiduciary duty to shareholders becomes involved. Think like a boomer investor: Disney didn't retire Kermit the Frog just because Jim Henson croaked. Why no more shark cunny, Yagoo? 😡

Yagoo and co. play stuff close to the vest, but I think there have been a few graduations (Coco's the big one to spring to mind) that have caused enough financial ass-pain for them to want to look for a better way to handle it. Trying this on the EN side first probably makes sense if there are fewer entanglements with Nip rules autism.

They park the character, keep the performer on salary/contract to some degree and only bring them out for occasions when the money requires it. They may even be paying basically to not have to compete with them should they use their Holobucks to return as a particularly well funded indie (Doki)...

Edit: Just got Mandela'd HARD on the Disney timeline, point stands though.

wtf is there something I can look at for this
From what I remember her mom is just generally doing a "I know better" / "I'm always right" kinda thing.
The interesting part, is that she is so embroiled in her daughters activities, but most is quite boring. Maybe @blackjack101 has some good examples, since he has a raging hate boner for Froot (based on his Varis posts).

But if you talk about her on MATI, you have to include this:

Her name is synonymous with the fact that she cheated on her husband so she's trying to reframe herself as the victim its probably all fake because she has a tendency of being a liar. Its impossible for her name to be mentioned without a laundry list of shit shes done also being brought up.
 
The graduation notice is very confusing. From what i've been able to translate from the JP version this is my understanding of it.
Amelia watson the character is stopping her streaming activities, including merch, concerts and everything else that goes along with that etc. Its like a soft graduation(IDK this is a really fucked statement)

Shes being kept on as a somewhat affiliate not staff but who knows what exactly. The way ive interpreted it is that she's stopped streaming under the hololive brand as Amelia but is free to pursue other opportunities. She may have the option to return for big events or projects and she might have a hand in some production stuff. Its really weirdly worded. IDK if it means that she has the option to return at some point or has some sort of future role in developing EN. From the looks of it she might even show up in some events and stuff as a freelance?. Very confusing.

This is really uncharted territory and we'll just have to see what happens. She did drop a fuckton of money on a studio setup recently so IDK whats going on.
She's basically the Dwayne The Rock Johnson of cover now .
Dwayne can appear in movies and other stuff but his character The Rock can pop up during special events when it comes to the WWE.

For all intents and purposes the character is basically just a guest that'll pop up once in awhile but is largely not associated with the company until then
 
How dare she not care about the troons and play a video game that loosely involves JK Rowlings!
I find it funny that people still say Silvervale is a transphobe or TERF for clapping back against the troons harassing her, despite her mentioning she doesn't agree with Rowling's views and said that "LGBT people are awesome. Twitter people are not."

As example: her mom defending her regarding the cheating stuff
her mom defending her regarding the lack of proof that she donated the crowdfunded money as promised
This picture of her is also not so extremely filtered like the gothic one. There should be more in the archives (she nuked her twitter when she switched to vtubing)

The mandate of a Japanese idol is something we don't really see in the west so for a person to not only endure the crazy stans, the work regimen, all while trying to put a unique spin on it is something that was eventually going to cause massive burnout.
I’d argue we do see it. Our music industry is exactly the same. It’s just easier to notice when it’s happening somewhere else I feel.
 
Kiara is taking Ame’s departure really hard in her stream right now.
She is the, self-proclaimed, number 1 Ame gosling after all. But here is the thing, they may not be working together in the future, at least not that often as it seems, they can still contact each other and visit each other.

I would say that the Japanese one is a lot worse because a lot of artists have a lot more agency over here which is saying a lot.

The average Japanese idol it's not just a performer but is essentially a humanoid coping mechanism for their largely lonely fan days that is supposed to make them forget about whatever they may be going through.

How does the Korean one compare to the Japanese?
 
Update on the Ame Graduation from Kiara's Stream:

-Ame told everyone a few months ago before the 4th year anniversary of Myth
-Says its the end of an era. Really hard for all the other Myth members to take but they respect and understand her reasons.
-Describes her graduation as a door thats closed but not locked. Depends on what the company and Ame decide.
-Graduation was the reason Kiara didnt want do GTA
-She's really taking it hard
-talking about how Ame would help everyone during the beginning and checking up on her when she was sad
-Happy that she and Ame hung out during the New York trip together after everyone has left. An agreed to meet up with Kiara in Europe
-Sunday the 22nd is a Holotalk with Ame.
-Will still be friends outside of Holo and says she loves ame and hopes everyone will watch every stream she does.
-Ame has alot of big plans for the next week
-A myth collab is happening.
-Hopes that in the future during concerts that Ame will show up similar to an idol group named Hello Project were previous member show up.
-Even Kiara doesnt know what the terms of graduation are.
-Kiara has alot of frustrations but has no plans to graduate and she alot of things she wants to do with Hololive
-Final reminder is to always cherish the time with you oshis
-Shes proud of walking along side Ame and the other myth girls as they built the EN brand together as they had barely any resources.


I dont think we'll ever see a Myth like group in vtubing again. So close and adventerous with all their projects constantly pushing the boundaries.
Edit- No one in Myth seems to know what the circumstances of Affiliate means and said just to wait and see what happens with it.
