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

Way too easy to put the entirety of the blame to the chinks, or cover trying to make amends with bilibili. The chinks spam wave was proven too be containable, what's with Youtube finally got their shit together and improving the streaming's QoL features like anti-spam. And it's also proven that the company can stand without need those sweet yuan (or at least from the looks of it) with sponsorship like with Red Bull
If it does because of the management throwing Coco under the bus, I'm think this is because the shareholders wanted more quick short-term profit from the company
 
Thanks! Will need some guide or something. Fuck this is gonna distract me from work for the next 2-3 days, having this at the back of my mind

6:05 ~ Reasons why they want to boycott Coco. They want Coco to be the one who voluntarily graduate so that Cover would look less guilty. Once Coco have graduated they can finally re-enter their Chinese market to gain their loss (like collabartion events with Chinese mobile games and streaming on Bililbili) Sorry for my poor translation, you can ask questions below. (please upvote to let more kaigai nikkis to see this!) Also please remember Coco's only wish that, don't disturb other holomems for this issues! Thank you
Reentering the Chinese market after Chinese antis harassed like half their talent and also risk the more profitable overseas market? Unlikely.
Not that the Chinese viewers will just come back just because Coco left. They will still see them as traitors for not instantly kissing their boots and firing Coco.
 
On the positive, her prior channel Kson ONAIR is back to being somewhat active, and with good enough views. If she decides to continue with the V-tuber route with another company then the potential for collabs is there.

I do wonder what they are going to do with the housing situation though? Must be weird having your ex gen member/coworker live with you, unable to stream alongside with you. Also shoots Hololive alternative in the foot somewhat since she was meant to be there.

Loving the sub count on kson ONAIR. Supporting Coco! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ruVYPv7yJmV0Rh0NKA-Lw
Archiveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee (
This would be a death knell for Cover in the English market. The NBA and WWE are still reeling from their pro-China yabs.
Thank you for referencing death knell. We can use those temp HP and have a 'Big Trouble in Little China" alley gang war with the dickbags. Meanwhile, kson ONAIR is up to 237k subs now (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ruVYPv7yJmV0Rh0NKA-Lw)
 
I know that this is a comment that many people don't want to see but this whole thing has gotten me extremely nervous.
Literally anyone could graduate now.
Coco was The Missing Link between the Japanese and English Markets and essentially pave the way for the English branch.
No matter how you look at it this is a sizable hole that can only go deeper
 
Long time lurker, this will probably be my only post to this thread/website ever.
Suisei's tweet confirms to me what Cover was already saying, that it was Coco's decision. She also hints towards the Holomem knowing it for a while.

Now, this is just a shitty GoogleTL so if I'm wrong then I'm wrong but.. shit. Unless Coco or her roommate says/hints towards Cover making her graduate, I'll believe the information being given.
Fairly sure FBK, Suisei and Kanata among many others would go apeshit if she was actually forced out.

Add on that several of the talent live together in the same house. Unless she's moving out because of family issues back to the US, I wouldn't be surprised if in short order the other VTubers in the house walk.

Various Vtuber reactions.
I know here on the farms we shit on vtubers like Zentreya but for once I actually think he put out a decent tweet. Coco was a pillar in the vtuber sphere and her graduating is a ripple effect throughout all agencies/indies.
I can already see the chinks spreading to other channels now that their primary target is gone.
Ah yes, who's next on their chopping block? Haachama? Aqua for being a "traitor"? Fubuki for showing her full support of Coco? I'm feeling like the COVER "ship" is going to take a bad trip through harsh waters due to this.
Any Kson/Coco members here to tell if there was any indication of this?
There was a rrat, that has been posted here during this shitstorm that something was happening before the 1st of July because her freetalk stream went from being scheduled several years in the future (like all free talk streams) to July 1st.

EN has already proven to be a vastly superior success, and the ties were cut when they nuked HL china, It would be pretty fucking retarded imo.
 
Heres my rrat.

Cocos mom went back to the US to take care of her grandparents who are suffering from dementia a few months ago. Things took a turn for the worse so now Coco and her dad are moving back to the US as well where Coco will become EN2 manager.

Man this sucks. Coco is what dragged me in.
I'd agree if it was any other illness or injury.

Dementia doesn't get better as times goes on it gets worse. You can't just say I'm gonna take a break for 2 weeks or 2 months and come back when everything is better. There isn't going to be a better.
It's a slow process that takes years.

However this is just my rrat and I'm just trying to grasp at straws because I'm pretty fucking sad.
I agree with this. My grandma has signs and progressively dementia like symptoms. I'm being pressured to return home to spend time with her, of which my family and I don't really know how much she has. Which.. pains me to make that decision because I'm trying to complete my degree. The choice between finishing up my degrees and spending time with my grandma before she possibly passes. Not to mention my granddad's failing health too. It's a really hard choice between keeping a career path vs spending time with your family.

I'm throwing my hat into the rrat she's returning to the US to spend time with her grandparents and that's not something you can quite keep a high energy/be your streamer self knowing a few doors down your family member is losing a part of themself and/or might just keel over.

If anything, Fubuki coming in to run interference makes me think this actually is a more amicable situation that we would initially assume. Bless her.
Who knows, she might slip a quick "Its ok, Cover is still ok. Coco's graduating because she truly wants to"... or she could slip "Abandon ship". who knows.

youtube-dl doesn't work on member-only streams, neither does 9convert. I'm gonna go insane over the next few days doing this archiving.
Worse comes to worse, OBS/Windows Gaming Capture.

Why the fuck does Cover posts the announce in both simplified and traditional Chinese, the market is already long gone why are they still trying to cater those locusts
I think we're forgetting Taiwan. Fuck the mainlanders. But Taiwan's pretty much got Cover's back after the debacle iirc. That or Cover def has gone down the wrong path.

I'm pretty shellshocked. But after the Taiwan fiasco.. I kinda steeled myself that there will be a day that Coco and/or Haachama will graduate. And that day has come.

I'm cracking open the scotch, pouring one out for Coco. I'm also gonna go out and smoke a full 20 pack. See you kiwis in a bit.

EDIT: and to repeat myself.. I will truly abandon Cover the day both Fubuki and Korone graduate. Nothing left for me tbh when both of them graduate.

Yeah. If Coco can graduate so suddenly, then everyone can. And no one can replace Coco as the missing link as well. Holo lost a very important member that could have pave way to more overseas expansion
