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

April fools in Japan is a strange time. Some go the full on commit route and make big announcements which look pretty believable and fill us with dissapointment as it only a joke. Then some others announce stuff which is genuinely real and no one believes them. So like all things on the Internet, take it all with a grain of salt

I guess thats a 2D rigging improvement on a totally different direction. Very unexpected but certainly welcome.

EDIT: Regarding the Miko-Marine vid

New Miko statement:
miko.PNG


New Author statement:
author.PNG


TLDR (google translate so I might miss or get stuff wrong):

Miko learned that people were harassing the author so they once again apologized to the author individually. She emphasized that she was responsible for the confusion and asked people to stop attacking the author. The video will be edited and released at a later date. She will be more careful with her content in the future.

Author apologizes for the confusion. They have received the apology from the other party and resolved to keep the matter in private. The vid will be edited and released in a later date. They said there are no bad feeling from both parties.


So yeah, it seems people did attack the author. Also author used a different twitter account.

Is April Fools celebrated in Japan? or will she be the first one celebrating it?

Yes. Kind of. Some online games might made an event or something. But the general populace? No idea, unfortunately

In case you got around 2 minutes to spare, the "Ina of the Mountains" playlist

I still firmly believe that the author's rant was an overreaction over nothing. That said, the real villains here are the antis and gachikois. Another proof how JP internet culture loves bullying somebody

Regarding my tweet on February 22, 2021, the details of the incident are generally as announced on Twitter the other day.

I was involved in a manga project of Cover for more than half a year, but right after the work was completed and announced, Cover suddenly and one-sidedly told me they decided to halt the publication indefinitely.
The reason for this was unbelievable from my point of view, so I couldn't control my indignation and made unintentional statements.
As a result, I withdrew some of my fanart and doujins related to Cover from the web, but this was my own decision, and I have no intention of going through with it.
I'm sorry, but I can't say anything more about this incident because it is still under legal dispute. Thank you for your understanding.

In addition, regarding the content of the broadcast on my bilibili channel that was allegedly held in China on the same day, false rumors such as "there was a dispute over royalties," "there was a dispute over secondary works," and "he incited harassment against Vtubers belonging to Cover" were spread on the Internet. I have received a large amount of slander as a result.
The channel is an independent one that is not managed by myself, but as a result of receiving the video archive from the administrator and investigating it at a later date, it has already been confirmed that the aforementioned information is completely false, based on fabricated content of broadcasts that did not actually take place.
Although the timing of this announcement was delayed due to the time it took to investigate this matter, there are still people who continue to post false information on social media, blogs, wikis, etc. I believe that the sending and spreading of such false information is a malicious act that takes advantage of the language barrier, and is distinct from mere slander.
I am now making preparations to take appropriate action.

I have said a lot, but I genuinely just wanted to deliver a good manga to everyone.
I still believe that I could have drawn a manga that would have pleased everyone for this project.
I'm disappointed and sorry that my wish was not realized in the end.

TL;DR typical Japanese non-apology that also backpedals and accuses others.
I like how this was generally unnoticed due to another artist getting assblasted over nothing.

TL: Sorry not sorry. I did absolutely nothing wrong. Can't say the reason because legal, but I'll word it in a way that the other party in an asshole and I'm a saint. And my boy that spreg too much on Chingland was lying and totally doesn't say exactly what I told them to say.

Slightly off topic but NASA is the latest to upset chunks by listing Taiwan as a country in a drop-down menu on their website. I came across this on reddit and found this in the comments. Found it funny because it's probably the only way NASA and Coco can be related.

Will we see spam bots in the next NASA livestream?
