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

[Autistic Screech]

What do we have here

If its Gen2 and with the "design" of the countdown, I would like to see a Steampunk inspired design or genrally something with clocks as motif. I don´t think one of them has an Outfit that leans into that style, but i could be forgetting something.

Watched Kiaras MV and it sounds like a Kira Song just not sung by a vocaloid. I like it, I think everyone did a good job, but it has no real Connection to Kiara I feel.
I like the full outfits with her phoenix tail out, its a really neat Idea.
Laughed a bit at the way her top was drawn in the first pic, its essentially just the boobs colored white. Which is weird since in all the other pictures it is properly drawn and not "skin thight". But thats just a weird thing i noticed.

She seems dorky as hell. Quite adorable.

She is time capsule to simpler times.

If this really is EN Gen 2 (or whatever, since they said EN won't be "gens"), the timing seems a little weird. Still pretty close after Coco's graduation, and directly on an EN member's birthday. What's wrong with next week instead? Maybe contracts or some shit.

On the other hand if it's not EN Gen 2 (or Vsinger), what else could it possibly be to warrant an 8-hour countdown video to the announcement? Some people in the chat are guessing EN 3D, but I don't think that checks out. Best guess I've seen in chat so far: Bubba Ch. debut.

This is the best time. Distract the simps with the new shiny while they're already tuned in for IRL Asuka.

What do we have here

Well we did all say it would be right about now if it is Gen 2. It is about time we had something uplifting and exciting to look forward too, there has been a lot of doom as of late so I welcome whatever this is with welcome arms.

 

[I am not here]

speaking of debuts. FalseEyeD showed off a WIP new animu model. Gonna miss the robo aethetic but I guess everyone wants a husbando/waifu avatar to fap to eh?

 

[Cubanodun]

Its slowly becoming a Nier game PV



Edits: autist are combing all twitter for possible accounts of the new girls, not a single clue by now

 

[Drey]

There's a few that people have been speculating about on /vt/ including *namarin, shachimu, dokibird, Chiika and Fuzuki Miki.

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Miki is Hana Flores from Project Kawaii. She did a French stream a while back and it sounded EXACTLY like Miki's French ASMR, at least to my ears.

I tried upping the contrast, I want to go back!

Ill admit you got a pretty good chuckle out of me now. Only thing I've noticed so far that is seems to change slightly every hour so who knows. To be honest whoever said they might be "Steampunk" themed, id honestly be so down for that only if they have done it right though.

Sora has a channel for Ankimo. Ame should do the same.

If you want something similar to Suisei's first rig, you can do it yourself. She literally self-taught from watching how-to video on YT. It will take time, but cost nothing. Otherwise, you can look around twitter I guess.

Juniper on twitch rigged own model as well. She has a good stream with her working on the rigging.

Sasaki got a new outfit, just in time for her 3rd anniversary. It's okay. I find it too similar to her default outfit but I guess that's the idea. It's an anniversary and all that.
Full body shot.


Close up and hoodie off. The new hairstyle is pretty sweet. The oversized jacket without the hoodie looks a little weird because of her arms. I hope she didn't take it off often.


Sailor uniform ver.


Legs and shoes.


Still can't flip the bird, but now has a punching pose. Looks hilarious with the jacket on.


Pretty vanilla outfit overall. If she said this is a touch up of her default one I wouldn't have doubted it.

Kiara's new song has super Kpop vibes to it, and I feel like a calli Rap verse over top of the instrumental break at the end would be sick.

The lyrics make sense if you know Kiara’s history. Sounds kinda like a “hey, shit sucked in the past but keep trying cause it gets better” song to me.

Also, is this just a link to find the song?

 

[Bingeamint]

Found this bit of gold relating to current events, reading it in a silly voice in my head made it a lot funnier.

That countdown clock is giving me flashbacks of Unus Annus.

I was curious, I checked when I originally saw the premier. It just goes to her Streamlink page with all streaming services. It actually links to a teaser image of the new EN girls.

Speaking of the countdown, I went back and watched the other videos on the Hololive EN channel and you can actually hear a clock towards the end of the announcement video for Myth (which also has a title referncing time), which would imply to me that this countdown is more than likely for a new group like Hololive English -Myth-, maybe Hololive English -SteamPunk- if the current rats come to fruition.

I saw some people speculate Asobi Rin.

Oh no no no... who's gonna tell 'em

 

[moments fade pain remains]

Imagine if at the end of the countdown, they announce something not Hololive-next-theme related.
