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.
So, I think over a thousand pages ago I talked about this. I'm really good with faces. Names are shit, but I am almost always dead on when I say I have seen a person somewhere. That kind of thing is very detail oriented and being able to kind of pick-out certain features that stand out past the wholistic image of a face (or backdrop, horizon, treeline, etc. . .). After seeing a lot of the HL and Niji face doxxes, I have been surprised pretty rarely, and I think it has to do with how the artists kind of tailor the creation to talent. . . an overlap. I can't draw for shit, but I can kind of see what they are going for if that makes any sense. @ZMOT has it with the body type for the most part, it can be hit or miss in accuracy. But I'm telling you, the faces are drawn, at least after first generation, with the background in mind. Now some are pretty different, but the only thing about EN that I didn't expect was Ame's roommate not being blonde. . . she just has every other color in the crayon-box.
Personally I'm not at that level with faces, but I kinda see what you mean about how they generally just look "right". An interesting experiment would be:
Take someone who's never watched HoloEN or maybe even VTubers in general, give them a 1-2 minute clip of each member, and the pics of their roommates (exclude IRyS, I don't think we know her face?). Then see how well they can match them up.
I bet on average, people would get them all correct - at worst, mixing up Ame and Gura.

To those who said the models must be similar to the talents, I'll remind you that Coco is 180cm (5'11") while kson is 152cm.
Not sure anyone said they must be. Personally all I think is that the avatars being similar in certain ways would make the kayfabe easier, which might be an appealing factor to some talents, but maybe not an important factor for Coco.

This is an even better clip (albeit not exactly a clip) than the one I posted. Nene's roommate looks like she walked out of the pages of a haute-couture fashion magazine, and this is how she acts on-stream. I love it. (Side note: Also loving all the Nene appreciation in these past few pages).

Don't know if this has been posted before but here is alleged Fatsuri dug up from the depths of old /jp/ vtuber threads, I think there are more but never saved them.

At the risk of a minor powerlevel - I used to be 50 pounds overweight, but lost it all a few years ago and kept it off. As far as weight loss journeys go, 50lbs is a walk in the park compared to what some people need to do, but even so, my relationship with food has never been the same since. My body cannot self-regulate anymore, I need to actively think about what I'm eating, to this day.

I give you this TMI for two reasons:
1) Matsuri may be a crazy bitch, but good on her for losing that much weight and keeping it off. My 50 was "easy" enough, but she looks like she had a decent amount more.
2) I suspect IRyS used to be fat, purely from her on-stream behavior. During a superchat reading she mentioned calories out of the blue like three times. E.g. somebody sent an "It's my birthday!" Superchat, she said happy birthday, mentioned cake, and then talked about the calories. It was that kind of train of thought each time. It's no proof of anything, of course, it just struck me as being eerily similar to how I think now.
Sorry, I don't have timestamps, only made a mental note of it. It's not important, just something I was curious about. A little rrat, I suppose. Tiny one. Maybe just a mmouse.



Edit:
Dunno bout that she seems fit from her pics back from 2014 she does like to eat a lot of sweets it seems like tho
Ah, didn't know there were pics. That was a quick rrat kill!

Well good on her for losing weight getting healthy. :)

Japan is wack.
Fat bitches need love too

Matsuri may be a crazy bitch, but good on her for losing that much weight and keeping it off.
She might be one breakdown away from eating herself into minor hamplanetoid status again.
Some holos and Matsuri herself have mentioned her stress eating the catering before events, inhaling the craft service table before some of the concerts, that fatgirl appetite is still in there.

Did kson know we were talking about fatsuri, and decided to flex?

EDIT: she lost the leg band, so she used tape...
She's "22" y/o (no).
49kg.

The only deficiency she only lacking in now is cock.

But in all honestly, fair play to anyone who looses weight like that now. I think her cheerleading days really helped her out as it quite an active exercise now.
 

An Animare member who in the past had to go on hiatus due to a problem with sudden sensorineural hearing loss causing her to lose hearing in her left ear is now quitting. She'll do some things she had planned out, but then she's done. Her last day is the 15th.

I never watched her, but it's sad to lose someone, especially like this and she is a member of the same group Kuku Kazami's in.

Maybe she's joining those disabled vtubers. (dtubers?) 🦻

One of AniMare's other members had to take a huge hiatus due to almost losing sight in her second eye (she seems to imply she had an accident that made her blind in one eye years ago).

Truly, AniMare are unlucky with these things, but her getting the help she needs and moving away from an industry that'll make it worse is the only correct choice.
