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

All true though ?

Look at the time Narukami posted his vid compared to Kaichou's vid, he's literally the insider or had someone tell him in advance.
or hes recycling the same content from half a year ago.
Because that rrat was posted a bit after the Taiwan incident, almost verbatim.
 
This is why you have to enjoy shit while it lasts. If this ends up being the thing that kicks off a mass exodus of Hololive talent then so be it. It was enjoyable and had lots of laughs along the way, with clips still there for people to watch.

I think why this hits hard for people who enjoy Hololive is both the impact she had in bringing over the English fanbase, the bullshit with the Chinese and that she is really the first established member retiring. Yeah, there was Aloe, but that was in a week of debuting. Coco has been around since 2019 and is massively popular, so it stings bad.
 
Narukami's video has no new information in it that hasn't been posted in this thread. He claims that Cover is pushing Coco out by being deliberately incompetent. All the incidents he listed are true but do not imply that Cover is pressuring Coco to leave. He is not an insider and has no unique insight at all, and his narrative contradicts the financial sacrifices that Cover has made to keep Coco. Unless he has actual evidence of shady investors putting pressure on Cover to fire Coco, it's a non-story.

What is clear is that Coco still likes Hololive, has no beef with any members or YAGOO and has made the decision to retire at least a month ago when free chat expiration date was changed. No matter what you think Japanese culture is like, Kiryu Coco does not lie to fans.

edit: if cover jumps back into the chinese market, then you have my permission to sperg out.
Not that I disbelieve you, more that I want to. Do you have experience with the Japanese language and translation or know someone that has translated the events? Might we get a transcript some time?
 
The point is that this isn't the send off that the community would have expected and that Hololive could have profited from. Something is afoot, whether sinister or not, there more reasons behind it all. All we can do in the meantime is Archive, sub to kson ONAIR channel, Archive some more, and wait for definitive information so we can swing these mixed feelings right into somethings teeth or swallow them. Also, Archive!
 
I'll just leave this here

From my knowledge, basically you can blame COVER for being useless on protecting Coco from the antis
1:21~ Cover's management/sponsors have contained Chinese which have hated Coco (as a American) from the very start of her debut, and some minors things that triggers their discontent like Coco being unwilling to schedulely stream on Bilibili
1:54 ~ the start of Patriotic Chinese' attack on Coco because Youtube statistic shown Taiwan as a country. Coco want to stream a apology video as soon as possible but it is STOPPED INTERANLLY by Cover because similar situations have happened before like Aqua and Pekora, which Cover have promised to teach their talents about sensitive political knowledge about China to prevent this happened again, therefore if Coco did apologize as soon as possible, Cover would look like they didnt' teach their talents and appease their Chinese sponsors/ management at all.
3:11 ~ Another evidence supporting Cover's attitude on appeasing their China counterparts, which promised to accept "One China policy"
3:58~ More evidence showing that Coco is being bullied and boycotted inside by Cover's management (Not Holomem, I think they are genuinely supporting Coco), so that Cover can appease the Chinese again and return to Bilibili. Evidence like being spammed in chat room without any help, forbidding any collaborations within Coco and HoloEN
4:36 ~ More evidence. Cover's website would celebrate their talents' 1million subscribers usually, but all of them have been posted on their website EXCEPT Coco. Not until some fans being skeptical about this, Cover finally post the celebration (after like, 2 months). Moreover, Coco have never been appeared in the official channel (those animation on Sunday) ever after.
5:08 ~ The most serious issue, which when Coco hand over the antis list for Cover to block, they "accidentally" (intentionally) set the list as moderators but not the blacklist, which caused many members from Coco's channel have been banned (remember that time Coco can't held anymore and kanata came to comfort her? this was the reason behind that)
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
If what Jp keemstar said is true than this may be the beginning of the end.
They more or less used our dragon as a sacrificial lamb to get back in good with the Chinese.
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.
You're taking the words of someone who has no way to know what the fuck he's saying, stop acting like a bunch of niggers.

Thank you for putting things eloquently.

You're a moron.
 
This is why you have to enjoy shit while it lasts. If this ends up being the thing that kicks off a mass exodus of Hololive talent then so be it. It was enjoyable and had lots of laughs along the way, with clips still there for people to watch.

I think why this hits hard for people who enjoy Hololive is both the impact she had in bringing over the English fanbase, the bullshit with the Chinese and that she is really the first established member retiring. Yeah, there was Aloe, but that was in a week of debuting. Coco has been around since 2019 and is massively popular, so it stings bad.
I would rather have an exodus than this continued existence with awkward pauses and no-no topics.

Rather die standing than live kneeling.

This fag "predicts" Coco retiring once a month. He is more wrong than he is right.
Even a retarded clock is right twice a day. I don't think this fag has extra info, he is quite literally JP Keemstar in that he is a massive faggot that takes existing facts from "obscure" places and spins retarded shit from it which he feeds his audience.
