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

I wonder how long they've been doing these voice lessons for. As Rezza said before, obviously Hololive is really trying to break it's way into the weeb mainstream and start making that big boy money by slapping a jpeg of a talent on whatever they can. Though, I feel like that's the endgame for most, if not all, chuuba companies. In the meantime it's been interesting to see the concept of idol chuubas actually start taking root in such a short period of time. I remember jumping into Hololive expecting 2D streamers who occasionally singed and danced once per year to fill in the idol quota.

Yeah this is exactly what I really want to see as well. I want to see how far they going to push the boundaries of what is possible. As you say we already seeing them being slapped on various products now (Curry promo), being in adverts (Gura taco Bell).

I'm trying to think what else they could dive into now. Next you know they be replacing virtual assistants on mobile and you have Miko swearing at you for being dumb. We just have to wait and see

You can also cross out singing an Anime ED (Jahy), appearing in one (The detective is dead), DLC pack in disgaea, Easter egg in doom(before it got wiped,damn you whoever it is that decided to remove it).

ANYCOLOR Inc. released a statement today saying that they'll be strengthening their efforts to stop news publications pushing misinformation and false narratives against their talents. Including but not limited to legal action.


Probably just your usual PR, as you're never going to know how things are improving internally, and you're not going to know about active court cases until they aren't active anymore etc. Still, it serves as something of a nice reassurance.

So my prediction is correct. I think everyone is making a mistake calling Hololive/Holostars as an Idol group. I think its better to call them as a Seiyuu group now. Yeah, it really affirms my theory that they're trying to do a Bushiroad. I wonder if the EN and ID will have a transformation like this as well? Then again, this move is most likely still on its experimentation stage, so only some of the JP talents are doing it as evident here where its just on a voluntary basis

The problem is around early 2010s JP gachikois equi Seiyuu to Idol hence the whole seiyuu idol start to the point that now you have to look good and have good voice acting to sell vs traditional seiyuu who’s treat it as a job did not get much mainstream anime due to them do not possess the look that sell. Just look at YuiKaori, Petit Milady, TrySail etc. they need both look and voice to sell. Though once they announce married, their sell just drop and they no longer get starting role in hit anime every season or cause a stir from gachikois (Sad HanaKana and Mizuki Nana and now Ayachi noise). This “merger” from JP anime scene is silly since it severe limited good seiyuus who’s pretty darn good at their job.

Still not sure if people are interested. Woke up just a bit too late to have linked it at a proper time. In my defense, I don't think it was listed as a stream 8ish hours ago.


However, still live if people are interested. Rating all her songs. I'll have to go back and watch the first half later.
