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

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
It pained me seeing the Polygon article about vtubers and right on the header were Melody and Silvervale. False equivalence I guess? Vshojo ain't got nothing on Hololive, yet since it's western made it'll easily get more press attention.
By all means, they can keep western "press" all to themselves. When the next goalpost shift happens and the pressurized pipebomb of Melody out drawing chaturbate thots, Nyanners chronic backstabbing, and Zentreya thinking it has a soapbox at every corner are in the mix...
If we're going to start putting Keeki down for political opinions then how does that make us anny better than twitter cancellers
No one is putting Keeki down, that was just another false equivalency.

Imagine thinking Nyanners is anywhere near Keeki's level of talent. :story:
 
Why is Pekora called a war criminal?
It's a running joke due to her pranks and shenanigans in the JP Minecraft server that often resulted in the deaths of NPCs, kouhais and senpais.

Might also be a case of access where the indies/Vshoujo girls being the only ones willing to talk when reached for insights/interview requests. Calli's Trash Taste podcast guest stint was only possible because it paved the way for a beneficial business partnership with Kadokawa / Bookwalker. When she tried to get other collabs outside the traditional vtubing scene, she got repeatedly shut down by management (though likely in part to who her intended collab targets were). IIRC, in the much-panned VICE piece on vtubing, they allegedly tried to talk to someone from Hololive but didn't get a response. I think Cover just has a hard press muzzle on the talent.

I don't think anyone here in this thread really cares about Keeki's politics as long as it doesn't make it's way into her Kiara content. To the contrary, the general sentiment has always been pretty empathetic given the open book of shit she's been through during idol stint in Japan.

Seems that reason for not going for Hololive applies if you've got 50k (coughLyricacough) or 500k subscribers. Is there value in retaining loyal fanbases that can justify trying to be Apple instead of doing a Microsoft and goin nog straight into IBM?
Parasocial attachments work both ways. Depending on how hard the talent had to work to get to that audience milestone and how engaged she is with them, it probably makes it harder to just drop the old persona and try to move on to greener pastures if they're particularly insecure about potential backlash or whether they'll be able to replicate that success into the new persona. Which is why Gura/Senzawa's case is quite remarkable. She got tired of her Senzawa fanbase and just dropped them without even as much as a curt "See ya".

I don't see why Miko would need it. She keeps telling everyone to stay home anyway.
She would break her Stay Home protocol if she gets one with Sora :story:

Also, did anyone notice this coming up?
Saw this at reddit.

Minecraft shenanigans
Basically. IIRC it was first introduced when she officially made UsaKen and fiddled with redstone by creating first TNT cannon and later cemented the warcrimes with her villager antics.

If it weren't for her antics, she would have gotten the title Innovator because lots of Minecraft builds that you would expect from veterans were made by her, I think.

Oh and liking pranks. She was thinking about joining EN server for the thought of making prank builds there. And wanting to disturb the peace of JP server because she wants something exciting again :story:

The JP server's great for her pranks & antics because there's so many of them that's there's always someone online working on stuff in it. The EN server is pretty much a ghost town these days. It's a great idea, but maybe wait until the EN server has enough inhabitants that it's a constant hub of activity again. Her villainy deserves a grander audience and bringing her to the EN server as it is now is like bringing a rockstar to the boonies.

At gunpoint, thats the charm

Vshojo ain't got nothing on Hololive, yet since it's western made it'll easily get more press attention.
Vshojo would have been something groundbreaking in the western market... until they got carpet bombed by the big leagues with Hololive and Nijisanji EN, also Vshoujo is just the Lewdcast with a family friendly tag

We are not putting kekki down because 1) she stopped and 2) she maintain her personal beliefs outside of her content not like certain bootleg Text to speech member of vshojo, the funny part is that is hinted that she stopped because she looks very white and she was looked down by body positive types and trans that absolutely hate her because she is everything they are never going to be

Why is Pekora called a war criminal?
She made a iron farm in Minecraft by sacrificing golems, all of this to make the Pekodam that is just literally a statue of herself , carpet bombed a village using a catapult that throwed TNT, destroyed a entire mountain just to prank Sora and Towa and a large etc etc etc
 
Ah, wishful thinking I guess. The possibility of hilarity was too much to not hope for. You guys are probably right. There goes my Thursday night of watching gachikoi meltdowns.

isn't the bunny described as being super shy (together with aqua)? she's probably the last one I'd expect to use it.

Probably very late to the party but I just found out that that Shiny Smily Story has an official English version? Kind of sad we haven't gotten a full EN rendition of it yet.

existed for a while. for a full version you probably have to wait till the next concert (if that corona crap ever ends).

That is true though. If there's anything that SJW whales and trannies hate more than anything, it's a woman with the self control to look like this despite, by her own admission, eating nothing but junk.

Might explain part of the persistant /cgl/ and cosplayer hate we always see for her.

"A virtual YouTuber (バーチャルユーチューバー, or VTuber) is an online entertainer, typically a YouTuber and/or live streamer, who is represented by a (usually anime-inspired) digital avatar generated by computer graphics."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_YouTuber

Anyone else been down into this rabbit hole? It first started with this meme video where an anime girl sings Scatman.


And from there on I watch like half of these streamers whenever I get bored or just watch the translated clips on YouTube.

Anybody else been getting into Virtual Youtubers as of late? Who's your favorite?
I recalled that the very first of these was Kizuna Ai. Favorite? Calliope and Gura.
 
Edit: Also, did anyone notice this coming up? I always find it really interesting when the collaboration pool extends outside of the VTuber sphere; like Suisei being on that music show,
This will be Moona's 3rd collab with real people. There was that Singapore Convention stream, the ID youtubers a few days ago where she took over for Ollie and this.

Being from Austria, some people would say she is the true white.

No one put down Keeki, just ridicule her early antic as Kiara. When debut, she was a numberfag that always had that defeat mentality even though she literally out pace most OG JP members like Mel, Aki, Subaru or even Ayame etc.

Her early rant was a pain in the ass even though we somewhat understand the reason was due to the traumatic early Japan idol career (she’s still young 25 mind you) which makes she had the mentality of if she can’t sell herself she will get eliminated.

Her lefties sperg on her personal account is more like as insurance against cancel mob (she did not have much follower initially either). Now that she gained traction, she probably don’t even need to pander to those cancel turd mobs anyway (most people in entertainment do that all the time until it’s their turn on the chopping block.) On the other hand, Keeki is a white, red head, with model like figure, and she’s everything those land whales mob and troons fight against.

Prime example in the west right now is Gina Carano). This is why social media is dumb and I hope Disney will fail their upcoming quarterly report since the cancel mob makes them think that they are too big to fail.

back to Vchuuba, in my opinion, Nyanners don’t need to move since she just established a very strong position within the industry. Seeing Senzawa reincarnate might be very tempting but after stick with Vshojo for awhile she probably realize that she’s becoming something like the main character with Vshojo as canvas. I don’t know if that intentionally on her part (if she’s that much of an evil genius) but seeing her become less pandering to the cancel mob in the past year or so make her a prominent figure in the western scene. She no longer need to pandering to those turd since her fandom is strong enough to shield her. Ironmouse and ... Melody can just ride on Nyanners coattail and at keep being entertainers and they will somewhat success with recent notice from JP Hololive talents like Polka etc. while the rest of Vshojo can act as background support for them especially the bad bootleg dragon who can act as magnet for all Twitter mobs. Let them all handle the western press since those press will definitely try to make them said something political anyway (it’s better to have Vshojo to absorb all the nonsense while the premier league like Holo and Niji thrive).
 
Pekora can't even maintain a conversation with her immediate family or coworkers. The idea that she'd be on tinder looking for hookups is pretty hilarious. Although I imagine a few of the girls might be on the app just to see what it's about after Coco referenced it on meme review.
 
Imagine going on a tinder date while on vacation in Japan only to have some weird shut in, rabbit war criminal show up barely talk and then turn you into a zombie so she can later cure you and get a discount in your shop.

I do every night.
I have a entire book about how to violate the Geneva convention in fun ways (on minecraft), is going to be fun

In other news Fubuki is very into Horse racing now and she is breezing almost all the content with SHEER DETERMINATION

Edit: she set her horse to get boost in the last curve so she always is like last until she hit it then proc her skill and become the flash

Edit 2: Discord appeared out of nowhere to offer her their mascot plushie
