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

Had a quick peak at the the new Watame outfit. Got to admit, it quite pretty and fluffy, so it suits her perfectly. It allot more casual than her OG outfit now. Got some nice snaps of the variations now:

Hoodie off is pretty nice, looks very light is the word id use.

Bonus folding arms behind back, extreme fluffly.
 
In other words, the massive inflation within Hololive can be attributed to a lot of viewers with little retention, whilst others - particularly within Nijisanji - have a lower volume of massively more loyal viewers.

So I wondered something: Does this mean that the likes of Mel, Choco and Aki are actually harbouring smaller but much more dedicated fanbases? Towa and Flare, who are usually on the lower end of concurrent viewers, are actually near the top of the company in terms of donations.

Maybe the ones people consider to be at the 'bottom' of Hololive actually just reflect a more honest look at what these talents have cultivated after the western fans found them?
You just answered your question. And to top things off, the lower volume of dedicated translators and clippers adds to the lack of subscriber increase ratio. Towa, Choco and Mel to a lesser extent than Aki, who you really have to dig for special moments.
As a smokescreen, big dick translator/clippers will say "it's because they aren't as funny as <insert random Holo gen3 name here> thus it' not worth my time to clip", which is a good excuse since translating and clipping are immensely time-consuming.
They also excuse themselves of their lack of Nijisanji content with artful takes such as "Niji JP is just too hard to interpret, there are too many inside jokes, their humor is too local", etc. which of course is just a bullshit lasagna to anyone who's watched how the holo superstars interact with each other.

This was brought up before and indeed this is what seems to be the case. Here you can sort of see some parallels with gambling and addicts.

A bit of an overstatement but yes, bets are they are in a very comfortable place spacha-wise.
Towa caps got ordered like crazy, I would imagine, and merch gives much more moni to talents from what they say.

The transparent sleeves and the Mary Janes are also a very nice touch. She’s gone from onee-san to “childhood friend” very quickly.

Moveable mic is pretty fitting for Cali, perfect for the concert shows she puts on.

100k viewers that has to be close to the most live viewers for a Hololive right?
AFAIK the current record for Hololive itself is the Miko returning back concert which peaked somewhere between 140-150k cant remember the exact number. Calling it right now, Gura outfit revel is going to break the record considering Calis one peaked at 131K now.
 
Yup. Miko comes back and Marine new outfits still most live watch with peak at 150-200K which is crazy.
They haven't reach 150k+ peak live viewers yet. If im not mistaken Miko's return peak live viewers 145k+ while marine new costume peak live viewers is at 137k+

Edit : Calli actually peaked 135k+ live viewers so yeah really close to the top.
 
sounding like a broken record but damn, i will always be astonished by the amount of aka supas Calli can rack up on celebratory streams. Gura may be the poster girl for EN but Calli is cash cow for sure

Literally DemonDice Calli. Which isn’t a bad thing. I quite like it actually and the microphone is a really good addition that I hope can be added to member’s models sometime down the line.
