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

It looks like NijiEN was a success. Nothing absurd like HoloEN, but they are doing fine.

Almost 50k for non-holos with flat 4k viewers? very respectable

Ame is having her Supa Sunday stream and mentioned how they weren't really happy with the Country Roads cover. She didn't linger too much on the subject but mentioned that Kiara and Ina also talked about it on her channels.

"More hands on approach next time" something along those lines

Im going to pull things out my ass but i think there were several problems on there

  1. The elephant in the room, that song has been milked to dead, like King, there was absolutely nothing new on it, and the parts of Ame sounds heavily edited for obvious reasons
  2. Pretty sure people was disappointed because they were expecting something like Blue clapper and not this considering first gen also got their full gen own original song this month
  3. The ridiculous amount of time it took to debut and the announcement was very lackluster, iirc Ame mentioned that thing was ready on December of last year that is why it sounds so christmasy

Part of the deal with SEGA and Atlus was that SEGA wouldn't fuck with their internal matters and only throw more money at them to make more Persona stuff.

Atlus HAVE given Nijisanji permission to play the PC port of Persona 4 Golden, though, as Hana Macchia and Noor both played it (though they were instructed not to stream 'the ending' which is a fucking nebulous statement given that the game ends 7 times).

According to some Japanese commenters, Niji manages to get the okay to stream those games because they are more willing to turn off Superchat compared to Cover

I would like to point out that Ame said that she recorded her parts with her first mic. The one that was the shittiest of all her mics. So yeah, Ame may not be a singer, but add to that a bad mic, and you have to pull some high level audio wizardry to make it sound decent.

Been watching both Pomu and Elira. Anyone worried about them approaching horny goblin status like Nyanners initially, those fears appear unfounded (at least for now). The most we've got so far is Elira saying "Drag-on Deez Nuts", and Pomu making "PP energy" jokes and laughing at chat suggesting her fan group be called "PomuHub". We'll have to wait and see how their personalities evolve once they chill out and grow. But for now, they're worth an initial watch.

Clips of Rushia's interview to UsaKen. I think Aqua has the most members, but Pekora is clearly going to become the corporate giant of the Holoserver.

I posted this mostly for what Coco was saying when she revealed her husbando.

John Cena having a Calliope Mori moment. (How do I even find these?)

I'd like to ask for the time stamps for the streams to whoever can find it, thanks

I can imagine the manager wake up at 5 AM, see the thumbnail and instantly panic.
"Oh god. Does this woman use her connection with Sega and pull the fucking Takaya Kuroda on her shit program?"
It's sound absolutely unlikely, but with Coco, you can never be too sure.

Kiara and Calli has shitload of songs and they are not swimming on dosh, how that work out? Calli could manage by her doing the heavy lifting but the chicken doesnt know how to do that

For context Nene debuted first and has i think 2 songs only with her (Nenene daibakousou and lunch with me plus Blue clappers), Kiara on the other hand has 2 songs (Hinotori, Heart Challenger), i asume the duos and other things are paid between them or paid by cover

Calli is a special case because she has like 12 songs or something but she do it herself so is mostly free

Edit: forgot Nene husband song.... so that was a thing

I think some important piece of info is missing. We KNOW that Suisei does pay for her own song with Comet and Tenkyu, but the former is when she's an indie and the later she specifically said that she have no support from INNK so she have to do it herself. She doesn't mention it with her follow up song, NCP and Ghost - and those two song cost a shit ton with all the pros working on it.
I still stand firmly on what we seems to know; Cover does support the girls on their project, but only to an extend. You want 3D shorts? We can provide that. You want Live 3D concert? Maybe on special occasion. Kanata want Live 3D concert with shit ton of guest. and the guests are in 3D as well, and super high production value? Hope you willing to shoulder some of the cost because we doesn't give other that extra. Want a merch made? We are in, but you got to invest your money on it too, and you reap most of the profit.
Overall, all this talk and fear that Cover is fucking the girls over money has been mostly either misinformation or plain wrong. They're a dirty corp that's for profit, sure, but one that's in for a long steady income that can only exist if they treat their money-makers well.

Hololive are not runaways in the talent department, either. Talking about 'occupied territory' is bizarre as most people enjoy variety of the same thing. Many subscribe to multiple ASMR channels, good APEX V-Tubers, Minecraft streamers, singers etc, so saying that Amelia 'covers' the Gremlin schtick is unfair when half of this forum can't stand Ame when she rages at games.

Funny how calli got disconnected in a split second and then her RE8 stream started immediately, with a hot mic, and you could hear her typing furiously, and ending that stream with a "WHAT"

Clipped

The Niji girls seem nice enough to me. Would probably give them a watch from time to time.
I tought the fairy would be the energetic and loud type, but she was surprisingly chill during the last stream. I tought her voice would annoy me pretty fast but with lower energy it's nice to the ears. Good energy for something in the background.

Bird girl has a good voice and is charismatic enough. Could keep my attention on whatever she's talking about.
By the way she mentionned a few time she was new to streaming, so unless she's lying or has weird standards, i'm guessing the rumors about her previous personas were unfounded?
