Korone got a 3D model upgrade. It’s pretty good, but it seems to have a little trouble picking up mouth movements.

It’s actually kind of hilariously adorable what she thinks is adult romantic movies.

For all the jokes we make about social credit and China, you would be. But in the context of the pettiest and most pathetic revenge ever coming from the national equivalent of internet toddlers, no.

...of Minesweeper. I might just have to tune in for that one boys.

I’m not sure I like the 3.0 3-d models. Korone, Ayame and Matsuri‘s new 3d models all look really similar in the face structure and it’s weird.
speaking of Matsuri, saw this in her info now:
seems most of the other girls have a variant in theirs,

Bit off-topic, but does the credit system work similarly to a bank account?
The reply implies that you can send some of your credit to other people.

Its mostly their 3D models rigged to their faces with some touches, is still way behind in all the perks like for example Ange from Nijisanji that actually can move her hands

Might be late, but was planning to watch Inas HL 2 stream, after the controversy, but looks like she unlisted it, though she still has the link on her twitter.

Because that has been an open secret since Polka's debut.

She made it more obvious and without a hint of shame after she talked about how the staff told her to slow down a little a week after her debut because she was going to fast and she told them something in plan "she did not know how this was going to last so she is pushing everything while she can"

Looks like there's one more round of China-related drama ahead for Hololive. Should just be an especially violent death throe since the group is no longer coming back, but it's not going to be pretty.
There seemed to be a revitalized influx of dislikes on Coco's videos after the initial wave died down. Turns out, nationalists have begun rallying behind Aqua, believing her to be secretly in support of getting rid of Coco since she was the only one of two who didn't mention her name in recent tweets. They actually took it pretty hard when Cover as a whole decided to completely pull from China, considering the company to be traitorous for letting all their support for the group go to waste in search for less hostile pastures. In a way, they aren't wrong; Hololive was a fledgling little thing in the beginning that was struggling to go anywhere. Sora's very first stream opened up to a rip-roaring audience of... 13 viewers. It is actually thanks to the work of translators on Bilibili and exclusive streams that Hololive was able to initially garner a presence, with translated clips reaching across the internet. The group wouldn't have become the massive powerhouse it is now without its partnership with Bilibili.
However, Chinese viewers always had an axe to grind with Coco. Not only did she not have a Bilibili account, but she's famous for deliberately pushing the limit with permissible Hololive content and becoming an unofficial ambassador of the brand for the overseas audience thanks to her command of the English language. Her accidentally mentioning Taiwan was the last evidence they needed to fully believe she was anti-China and thus must be purged. So, as we all know, they gave Cover an ultimatum when that shitstorm happened: either she goes, or they go. Problem is, according to calculations Bilibili donations nowadays only bring in about 5% of Cover's total revenue, whereas Coco has been topping the charts as one the most popular female superchat earners, if not the most. Not only that, her popularity with overseas fans and close friendships with the other idol girls pretty much made her almost as much of a bedrock to Hololive as their producer, YAGOO. The suspension itself had already damaged Cover's reputation across the world - if she is fired, there will be Riots with a capital R. So of course Cover decided to cut the cord that they could go without nowadays.
Which brings me back to Aqua, who is now seeing an increase in subscribers from the latter even though Cover is already lighting the bridge on fire and never looking back. Nationalists are hoping she is on their side, because she was supposed to have a China-exclusive event that is now cancelled for obvious reasons, featuring a music cover that has just been released on her Bilibili account. Nationalists are taking this and her lack of directly mentioning Coco on Twitter as a sign that she is supporting their crusade to drag Hololive's name into the mud.
Here's the thing about Aqua though; she is an incredibly meek and introverted person. She's such a nervous wreck that she has admitted that she can't even speak to waiters to take her order, relying on her friends to help her out. Furthermore, she's one of the least proficient members at the English language, and the song cover she was doing was a Chinese/English mix that also contained some rap, so she had been spending a long time trying to perform it perfectly in anticipation for the event. The music cover appearing on her account was a case of not wanting to let all that hard work go to waste, while also serving as a final parting gift for Hololive's remaining CN fans.
Unfortunately for the nationalists now seeing her as their Jeanne d'Arc, in all likelihood Coco and Aqua are on good terms. Aqua has ironically gotten into trouble with Bilibili fans before, again due to circumstances beyond her control (something regarding a mistranslated schedule?), where she was forced to make an official apology to tide things over. Coco shortly afterwards did a collab stream with her, where she consoled the girl and discussed about how there will always be a 1%+ in the audience that will hate your guts, no matter how big your fanbase gets, or how hard you try to appease everyone. Aqua being quiet on the subject was likely her way of just wanting to exit the scene as softly as possible, which unfortunately won't be happening for the next two weeks.

Coco and Aqua shared a heart to heart on a raft during an ARK stream with regards on how to better handle negative feedback and feelings of burnout. This was months ago but Coco dropped all pretense of being a shitter to offer Aqua some real life advice on keeping her spirits up. It's safe to say that Aqua took the advice to heart a bit after that and isn't as meek, but also that that she has as much respect for Coco as anyone else.
