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

Anyone know why Hoshikawa Sara just had to release an apology video?

From what little I can get with the google translate app, It sounds like it’s something to do with another person, but I can’t figure out what.

Hoshikawa Sara is apparently taking a break from streaming due to joking about putting on extra stamps on her loyality card so she could get a free drink. She has appologised for the statements made via twitter.

Nijisanji's Official Statement:
Hoshikawa's Appology:

If this is true, it sounds like another vtuber being disproportionately punished for banter. I kinda like Hoshikawa so this annoys me. Though I might of misread the situation as I cannot speak Japanese and so I based understanding on twitter replys.

Funny is that glance through a lot of the comments on her apology video, the sentiment from the fans is that what hoshikawa said was indeed wrong (since a streamer is kinda public figure I guess, and maybe because she was close with yumeo who rumored to be working on a scam business before).
I'd say she didn't do shit. She just said something along the line of "it's be funny if I did this" and got punished for it. Once again I'm biased because I like hoshikawa but still.

One of the YouTube vtuber enthusiasts made a community post about Artemis. I doubt I'm alone but I have a feeling she's getting too much hype going and isn't gonna be able to deliver entertainment worthy of it, especially from the get-go. Someone in a comment said Gura should collab with her but I kinda doubt that will ever happen.

Artemis has been teasing for weeks and doesn't even debut till the 24th. She has someone named Domo on Twitter simping for her and people are trying to figure out who she is for some reason. I kinda wonder if she and Domo could be the same person.

DQ 1 and 2 for the famicom used passwords, i remember Arino mentioning it, it was not until Dragon quest 3 that battery save was added, i totally forgot about the FDS because i played Zelda 1 and Metroid on the GBA

It's almost entirely shilling to ride off of Gura's popularity. No other reason why to do this instead of actually putting something out.
Wasn't the first time, won't be the last.

In other news, the China shit is kinda fucked but it was a total blessing that HoloEN didn't have to directly deal with Coco's Reddit retard army. How do people like this even exist, maaaan.

I think the joke about her tail came after her debut stream because her reference material only show her tail when she is facing front but when you see her back her tail disappears and it doesnt mention anything about it

Edit:

Doesn't take long to figure that out. You have entire youtube channels dedicated to "discussing" vtubers.

In other news, I've noticed a few anime avatar acquaintances decided to commission expensive "vtuber models". These acquaintances are all men and think they're gonna "make it" on youtube/twitch because they have a vtuber avatar. All of them look like they come from the uncanny valley. They animate poorly and add nothing to the content.

Is trying to cash in the vtuber fad the new twitch streaming?

If Alex Mahan is any indication, then yes (emphasis on *trying*).

Alright, time for autistic observations based on no real evidence.

I have something that I like to call the "I got interested" point in a trend. It's usually the point where I get interested in some new/emerging market when it's close to being completely saturated and getting critical because millions of other people thought the same and you can't get the easy money/fame anymore.

I got interested in crypto? The market was close to already being established, everybody was mining and it crashed later in the year.

I got interested in lets plays? Everybody and their dog became one and then daddy youtube killed the genre.

I got interested in vtubers? That was a couple of months ago, now there's Holo EN, and every normie wants to be a vtuber. Now we wait for the market to crash.
