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

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Minecraft devs add Axolotls to the game to "raise awareness" of endangered species and people just breed them until they get the rare one and then kill off the undesirables. lol.
Also, this is like the second time YouTube has unsubscribed me from her channel.
Susan and her pajeet bots are absolutely fucking up my girls from Phase Connect in both numbers and live viewers for no reason. Fuck you Susan, let my DSP Otherkin ancap vtuber play her fuckin airplane game and her communist bear friend whose real voice is Kanye West play Yakuza.
 
So now that NijiEN Wave 2 has been announced and their past lives are basically confirmed (I see some people are doubtful penguin is Shachimu though), I thought I'd poke around and see the current status of all the VTubers who recently graduated or otherwise disappeared within the past few months. If someone less lazy than me wants to add links or put together an image or something go right ahead.

Already graduated:
Maid Mint - NijiEN LazuLight's Pomu Rainpuff
Ryuusei Nova - NijiEn LazuLight's Elira Pendora
Shirogane Yui - NijiEn Lazulight's Finana Ryugu
Namirin - Hololive VSinger IRyS
Fuzuki Miki/Kirihime Ria - NijiEN Obsydia's Rosemi Lovelock
Shachimu - NijiEn Obsydia's Petra Gurin
Dokibird - NijiEn Obsydia's Selen Tatsuki
Ayane Ninomae - Production Kawaii's Isla Coleman
Marica Bellerose (previously MyHoloTV) - returned to VA channel K O Z U
Manaka Umio (previously MyHoloTV) - returned to indie persona Moon Jelly
Midorikawa Cream/Higanbana Posy - Prism Project's Miyoshino Shiki
Runa Kei - rebranded to Freya Hoshino
Hazard Hornet - reincarnated as indie Yamaguchi Glorko?

Graduation announced:
Kimino Miya - graduating end of Sept 2021, notably used to be part of upd8

Watch List:
Kyoresu - no idea who this is, a Spanish-speaking VTuber?
EileMonty - also no idea
Chiikadayo - indefinite hiatus from streaming/VTuber activities starting July 3rd, clarified it's not a graduation/quitting
Athena Nightingale - still currently active, famous for that Haachama Horror song

It's interesting that basically every single person that was speculated to have made it into HoloEN/NijiEN has now been accounted for...so who exactly will be in HoloEN Gen 2? There may be more indie graduations closer to August/September but at this point it feels like a lot of the notable (and/or non-lolcow) names have been scooped up. I see people saying that Cover/AnyColor will likely only pick popular, already-established content creators from now on, but there's only so many big names out there. I wonder if we might see some literal who's getting into Hololive/Niji several generations down the line after the current cream of the crop has been recruited. On that note, I'm admittedly ignorant of who exactly is at the top of the indie scene now -- the only names I really know are Haruka Karibu, Lyrica, Bao, and Artemis. Are there any other noteworthy indies to add to the watch list?



In other unrelated news, Sister Abigail apparently has merch now, and 100% of proceeds are going to charity. @Takodachi in case you're interested

Also I happened to catch Athena Nightingale's karaoke earlier and holy shit she's got pipes. Unarchived unfortunately but luckily some kind soul has uploaded some clips from previous streams. Would love to see someone like her get into Hololive if Cover ever decides to get a second EN VSinger.
Japanese Hanjo TV's Miya is graduating? Say it ain't so!

I hope Cover or Niji picks her up, she is fluent in Japanese and English

Glad more people notice Athena. She's cool. Great singing voice. Can play piano. Chill commentary while playing games. I don't think she'll be in EN2 though, since she just debut her model a few weeks ago. Then again, there are case where they debut new l2d and suddenly went on hiatus. I would be glad if she get into Hololive.
 
So are we sure Pippa doesn't already have an account? We got a DSP and Kay's cooking reference.
She also made a comment about the chat saying she was telling it how it is, and was "Honest" to which she said something along the lines "If you keep over using the word honest I'm going to become Onision." Not exactly a farms shout out, but still the kind of shitfest that gets the crowd around here to enjoy some happenings.

That said her chaos gremlin self has been a joy so far. Indebted to whoever brought her up, because anything I've caught has been an absolute day maker.

Pippa's debunking the rrats about management being overbearing. She says that she hasn't yet done anything that has actually pissed them off, and they're even okay with her publicly talking about the sites she uses (like 4chan). She says they allow "controlled chaos", and I think they're smart for allowing it and not wrangling too hard.
 
You were noticed.

Kiki, if you're reading this, don't worry - just wait until Null eases up on the border control. Deer Feeder will hopefully have things back to normal relatively soon. :)
The fuck is Kiki? This shit goes too fast and I miss half of the pages.

Honestly the thread has more positive comments than negative ones, it's a legit community like any other.
It only takes 1 or 2 retards being toxic to damage everyone elses reputation. Its normal. Look at shit like the chans. Go into the papercraft, art or the mecha board and its mostly pretty chill.
From what I understand, it's not really a hate of the talent, but a hate of the company's middle management. Their attitude towards certain talents/ their practices. Examples include: monumemtally fucking up Coco's Burman filtering program, not allowing talents to do certain streams they seemed really passionate about (I think it was Pekora who wanted to do a giveaway or something).

If you're talking about people saying the EN branch isn't as good chemistry-wise as Niji's in the past few pages, I can definitely see where people are coming from. When you get all 5 of Holo's EN talents in one stream, there's this odd chemistry where only Kiara or Calli will interact and Ame, Ina, and Gura will mostly stay quiet. It's a little less noticeable when it's Calli and Kiara, or Ame and Gura and Ina. Or hell, Calli's 1 on 1 Tabletop streams had some of the greatest interactions between her and the other girls. Not to discount Holo's EN talents, they all are great on their own streams and have their own specific niches and talents. It's just that Niji's EN branch definitely has more chemistry, as all 3 members bounce off each other and have conversations.
Im more impressed that people expect Japanese company not to operate like a Japanese company.

As for the whole chemistry thing its normal when you go by their personality. The chicken likes to be in charge of the conversation and the other girls probably feel a bit too limited when it comes to talking when they have to talk over her. That said really great moments from those collab streams. The drawing game was really good.

As far as chemistry goes Gura to me feels like the best person to collab with as she really adapts to fit the other person. she works around the other person.

Come on Kanata. Bring back shitty meme reviews.

You've got to do it.

I feel like she doesn't have the charisma for it. As much as I enjoy her she doesn't seem like the "comedian" type.

Irys has not been active for a week and she is already culling the weak and the unworthy

YOU LACK HOPE
Salty cucks. I love how they look at someone's success and get mad but they fail to notice all the shit Gen 1 went through. Things like Miko, and Suisei talking about thinking about quitting back when they had like 1k subs.

I'm expecting the hope thing to kinda fade a bit in a week or two. Kinda like Ina not talking about being a priestess all the time.
Its cringe but I guess all of the girls need to have some sort of "lore" which they eventually drop. Its more of a gimmick that often gets ignored.

I'm glad they don't care about what sites she uses. If she keeps being public about reading Kiwi Farms, or god forbid interact with us, some seething VTweeter trannies are inevitably going to try to complain to management.
I feel like pippa browsed the thread, shes mentioning several talking abouts we have gone through this past week.
It certainly sounded like it. She called our "conspiracy theories" depressing. :story:

Maybe they should listen to Mori and her songs about what she's all about, just to understand what she have to go through to make it this far.
Cover has a pretty good track record as of late of hiring interesting talents with applicable skill sets.
this is the same additude that happened with "Off with your heads" most people are supportive of IRyS witha vocal minority of turds who are just jealous and spiteful, When the "off with your Heads " thing happened i voiced my opinion on twitter 1 time and got 50+ blocks.
Even after that whole OWTH shitstorm, Mori never lost her popularity in indie Vtuber scene.
Which makes me wonder how many of the EN gen 2 will be deadbeats?
