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

[Gatcha Gonna Getcha]

She's also confirmed that she used to read lolcow.farm when she was working as an idol, so why wouldn't she read forums like those now?

I'll never get what's running through the heads of people that do shit like this. Reminds me of when Lia got phone booked & Null confirmed it after getting a takedown request from Phase. Makes me wonder if it was her or one of the other talents that found it, or if it was staff that brought it up?

Yeah honestly it's very surprising seeing most English replies be very positive while the Japanese ones are very mixed
Not even mentioning the rom thing just because she's a vtuber

Honestly the JP fanbase has it's own segment that responds to anything vtuber related the same way normie westerners do.

Like they get annoyed about vtubers being put into anything, very similar to how western normies react to when Mori gets put into stuff they know.

Holobros I feel for you, this Gigi shit has showed me how many retard EN-only Holo watchers exist and just how retarded they are.

Just having to watch takes like these about your corpo makes me feel sympathy for you guys.

at least for the most part the only way you encounter these sorts of things is by going looking for them. I've not seen a single peep of any of the drama outside of other people here directly bringing it up.

You can also tell by the verbage there dude saying "livers" that this isn't even a holo thing, this is some nijisis stirring shit which is all the more reason to not give them an ounce of attention.

Anal violence has written a slop article about his ideas of games including Vtubers, after Usada Pekora was confirmed to be in Death Stranding 2. Weirdly he namedrops Pippa and Phase Connect in the article as well, which I can confidently say is nothing more than a grift.

Can't believe this is considered journalism.

I'm offended by "Liver" on a primal level. The jap that invented that term was committing linguistic violence against the English language. Westerners who use that term unironically deserve to be eaten by feral dogs.

I see Anal Violence has learned a touch of subtlety in writing about his violent fetishes in his ostensible games journalism.

My liver has done a great job so far of filtering out all the toxins in my body and keeping me alive when I'm getting shit-faced with friends. It doesn't deserve to be typed out by Nijisisters like it's a slur, thank you very much

Bait article doing its best to scoop up people googling about death stranding or vtubers in general.

In some aspects it's not even a vtuber thing, shoehorning in celebrities for cameos in franchises where they don't belong brings out visceral reactions from otakus. If I was a DS fan that didn't watch vtubers I probably would be pissed too.

Clearly you're not

to be fair, DS is the worst game to hold that kind of stance on. The first game was already stuffed to the gills with "hey Kojima likes this person so now they're in the game"

It makes it all less shoehorning and more just..... what Kojima does. Pekora is no weirder or out of left field to be in the game than Conan O'brian was in the first game yunno?

for the Vtuber specific thing it's just a sentiment I've seen often enough not being expressed as a general celeb dislike, but just seeing JP fans seeing Holos collab with something they like and seeing comments "why are V here......." that don't seem to just be generally fatigued by celeb shit, but specifically that the "new thing" vtubers are coming in. Seen it in anime and game tie ups in the past, saw it in stuff like Mori collabing with Zutomayo (who to this day remains the only person Zutomayo has ever collabed with) so just kind of acknowledging that Japan has it's own sort of entertainment-luddites scowling at the new big thing.

Nono you don't get it, it's not okay for straight men to look at her ass, but if it's stares from dykes, fags and troons, it's completely okay. I'd rant more but I'll just let her post speak for itself. The DMs she shows in the story are very retarded as well.

Just having to watch takes like these about your corpo makes me feel sympathy for you guys.

Setting aside that it's not "my corpo", the insanity to think that yuri bait is only for LGBTQIAP is insane. Straight men are fans of yuri because it's two pussies and no cock. It's as straight as looking at gay stuff can possibly be.

"hey Kojima likes this person so now they're in the game"

Which was great! I enjoyed Mads' part in the first game.

Fair point.
Now that I think about it, maybe vtubers at their core just being regular streamers and their anime skin suits giving them a sort of a leg up in anime/vidya collabs irks people.
