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

[Azchan]

Kiara should just go all-in on euroautism and do board games.

Or just play Dota. Odd that the girls dont seem to play MOBAS given how they are still somewhat popular.

God, I wish Ollie and Moona werent in the ID branch.
I like them quite a lot, but I just cant stand how ugly Indonesian sounds, it makes my skin crawl.

Indonesian sounds kinda shit but I can still tolerate it over Korean or Chinese. Wish they just have ID branch become EN 2.0. It kills me inside that ID numbers are not as high when they are really great.

Is anyone else watching Beatani, the vtuber that /vt/ is currently grooming? She's pretty interesting.

She's cute but I feel like I barely have any time available to keep up. The only indie I watched was Riri back in my old job in November-December because she would do singing streams early in the morning.

The moment kiara sinks multiple japanese aircraft carriers, I'll start being a fan

Fuck you for making me chuckle at that joke.

Watching Pikamee.. fml.. I would drop some cold hard dollerdoos for a Pikaiju plush, even more if it was like those tickle me Elmos where it could just give me random Pikamee sounds and laughs

View attachment 2017851
on a side note, is it me or is this new L2D model a lil derpy in the eyes? That or I don't remember Pikamee's model's eyes freaking out so much

I think its a byproduct of the rigging being better thus the eyetracking spazzing the fuck out. Also wearing eyeglasses fucks up the tracking and it might be possible that she wears some.

ASMR is a fetish thing. Apparently you get a hardon from listening to lipsmacking noises and the sound of heavy breathing. Definitely kink territory. The whole "relaxation" angle is to side curb the normies and youtube shitgorithm.

Nails tapping on glass has a nice feel to me. Soft breathing and whispering is reserved for hornytime though.

Relatedish, what odds can I get that there will be a bird in EN2/JP6? If so, what kind? Emo crow is my first thought.

Im surprised we dont have more catgirls given how prevalent they seem to be. For EN i would probably expect a Cat Girl and a Demon/Succubus/Devil girl. Would be interesting to have a Spider and a Horse but I doubt it.

Anyone that thinks she'd ever return to Aloe is being delusional. This discussion has appeared here a few times. She still semi-secretly follows hololive happenings, but she's not going to be one again and any collab or public interaction with any holo would be a literal miracle.

Aloe is dead and she wont come back. I also doubt there will be any sort of collab with her new character.

 

[Namesarehardtocomeupwith]

Ah yes the duality of man sisters.

 

[ArgoKnight]

Hmm, nothing set in stone but Gura actually brought up wanting to play Payday 2 specifically with a senpai in her Membership-only stream. Now that still includes the potential letdown of ID Gen 1...

Imagine thinking that a collab with Risu would be disappointing.

 

[The One And Only ALTE]

From 40K, Polka is certainly a Harlequin troupe master. Noel is a Grey Knight and Roboco some form of Skitarius.

Sir, Noel is clearly a Battle Sister, she leads a squad of her own clones. They basically function like sirens, but with chainswords.

I figured Noel and Flare for more of "Gilles le Breton and The Fey Enchantress"

couldn't you seriously see Pekora riding on a doomwheel and laughing as she blasts people with warp lightning?

"Behold the latest creation of the Peko Wonderland Project! Eat lightning nosagis! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!"

 

[Friend computer]

No for the love of God. I don't want to suffer anymore.

"I want to grapple..."

Would be wonderful.

The good IDs basically only speak ID when they're doing collabs with the ones that have shitty english, or something like Area 15 which is specifically all the IDs together. They quite often say things in EN then in ID, similar to how the EN fluent JPs do but pure ID is incredibly rare. Ollie, Reine and Risu have the highest % of EN chat outside of of the HoloMyth girls IIRC.

Kiara should just go all-in on euroautism and do board games. She could have contests where KFP members fight to the death for the opportunity to play Ticket to Ride with their Autistrian Queen.

board games are unironically perfect for collabs, however they suffer from crappy clients (just look at the uno one) and that you need at least some knowledge what's happening to appreciate it (and more importantly someone knowing the game and be able to explain it properly so everyone can have fun, which is even difficult in the analog versions).

just imagine them playing mascarade or any other social deduction/take that game, perfect source for bantz and comments without having to force them. or look at the latest hololive among us collab or

Ludo have simple rule. You can't start your part if you didn't get six on dice. And need eat each other out.

was curios seeing someone play it after the meme status it got (bit overblown, but eh). maybe it didn't make it to japan. also noticed the audio logs and certain posters don't have translation, so it's not only the west suffering from crappy imports. infinite has quite a bit of visual stuff for reference and foreshadowing, which are probably even harder to get when it's in a different language.

Actually the audio logs are subtitled - it's just a slightly different setting than everything else. And the signage has translated captions that pop up when you look at them.

Dark heresy with HoloEN you know you want it

Marine willing to jump in front of a dick to "save" Callie.

A true and honest American hero.

Since we are talking about languages and accents.
Is it me or Ina has a weird accent? Sometimes she sounds -may god forgive me for saying this) British, or with a slight br'tish accent, and it drives me up a fucking wall.

Am I imagining things? Do all Canucks sound like that?

She's probably second generation Korean immigrant.
She has Canadian vocabulary, not Canadian accent.
She literally sounds like BMO:

Canada is mixed up British, American, and France but divided in different region it's normal to her to have that accent (maybe). My problem with Ina is how low her voice volume is that makes me think she talk mumbling.

 

[Thomas Talus]

I believe the word you were looking for is "bri'ish."

I wonder if she shares BMO's other tastes, my guess is absolutely:

 

[augment]

Ina sounds like someone who is immensely embarrassed of talking to people regularly and in person. Fits her description by her fans.

I forgot that Polka was actually playable in King of Fighters XIV

Not really no. I'm assuming Ina's accent is partially a byproduct of her upbringing. One of the hallmarks of the 'British English' accent is its lack of rhoticity and rhoticity is kind of an afterthought in most East Asian languages (like Korean). She has a largely non-rhotic accent compared to the rhotic accents of most of North America and that's probably the source of your confusion.

Canada is mixed up British, American, and France but divided in different region it's normal to her to have that accent (maybe). My problem with Ina is how low her voice volume is that makes me think she talk mumbling.

This is a little bit of an overstatement. While the French Canadians are largely insular, the exchange of people and culture between the rest of Canada and the US has been extremely active since before the US went independent. We are quite literally family (not to powerlevel too much but my family tree crisscrosses the border very frequently). What 'British' influence there is is not really all that much more than what exists in the US and had it not been for 19th and 20th century great imperial power geopolitics, the US and Canada probably would have consolidated themselves into a single nation-state a long time ago.

The idea of a very distinct 'Canadian identity' that is somehow a British refutation of all things American is a colonial trope leftover from the days when the British empire was pulling out all the stops to keep its colonies in line. Most parts of Canada have far more in common with the parts of the US they border than even the rest of Canada (Atlantic Canada with New England and New York, Prairie Provinces with the Northern Midwest, and B.C. with Washington State and Oregon, etc). This is not to say that there isn't a distinct Canadian culture but it's more in line with what you'd expect from a regional US culture rather than something completely unique.

If anyone wants a physical copy of Bouquet, preorders are open. Didn't see anything about it going on iTunes or Spotify, but I'd be surprised if it didn't. Unless they're really greedy and want your money. The price along with shipping is looking like a real turn off if I'm being honest.
Here's the album cover:

Moona’s english is not that great either and arguably the worst compared to the rest of holoID but her chat is the most diverse out of all the ID girls. I’ve seen JP, ES, TH, FR and even RU translator in her chat.

I can only think of Iofi if we’re talking about pure ID streams and even then from what i’ve seen her chat is basically 70% ID 30% JP
