Looks like Kronii and Bea will be doing a sponsor collab stream on a game called Eternal Return which according to Xbox it's a MOBA/Battle Royale/Survival kind of game. Not my cup of tea but it'll be interesting to see what shenanigans they might get into.

But what got me tripping about this is that I only found out about this game a few days ago and now they get a sponsored stream to play it. This shit cannot be a coincidence.

Also, the tweet from pic related had an error and was deleted, but Kronii fixed it with a different tweet. (fixed tweet)
 
The elderly and the deathfats feel no reason to burden themselves with the simple act of walking.
People also fake disabilities to use them too. Not that they need to, you can just grab them. No one asks.
I always wanted to ride one of those as a kid, it looked so cool lol!

But yeah, there isn't even a sign saying they are reserved for the disabled and the elderly. Makes sense, you can't really tell how someone is feeling sometimes, back pain isn't always noticeable, and people might simply be tired and wanting to have an easier time shopping. I don't judge them!

Yeah, I had completely stopped paying attention after the second hour and went to sleep after the fourth.

It's a bit hard to balance them having fun and a reasonable streaming time, it doesn't necessarily translate. They might be having the time of their lives on the game while the viewers might find it not so exciting, I didn't really watch the Festival but the clips are nice, that's how I'm getting the experience lol!

Those on the pic seem like the type the store would provide. And not necessary even a big store.
So the answer is yes, they do. Otherwise store provided scooters wouldn't have been a thing.
Are they mostly a cultural thing or a necessity? I have seen some of them where I live, but only on bigger stores, smaller or medium ones only have shopping carts which must suck for the people who need them!

Kinda both? They exist for people who genuinely need them but most of the people that use them use them because they are lazy entitled fucks in a lot of areas.
 
Seems to hover around 70-80 during calm moments, pretty reasonable, her actual resting heart rate is probably in the 60s.
The jumpscares are getting her though, up to 136 at least, so she decided to bring Ina friend.

Of course, her emotional support tako joined the call and scared the shit outta her by making a creepy voice that she thought was part of the game lol.
Her emotional support friend who has a resting heartrate of an impending cardiac arrest lol.

For big stores its probably for ADA accessibility reasons, like the big stall in the bathroom. But all the people I know who would need one always have their own wheelchair, and my grandma just uses a walker, so Idk how many people who use it are just fat.
 
She has brought up the translation "incident" several times since then, seems it has made her super cautious with self-translating. She was nervous AF before the Holobirds collab. Luckily, she's Subaru -- you can't keep a good duck down, she's great at pushing past her fears and insecurities. Her work ethic and all-around earnestness are her strongest assets.
If she's cautious about self-translating it manifests as a greater effort to learn instead of reluctance to speak, which is not what most people would default to, so good on her. Conducting the Holobirds/Turducken collab in English was Kiara's idea.

5000 yens only to say she got constipated for stress, lovely

Edit: she flipflops a fucking lot jesus christ but at the end is that she is not going to tell anyone, thanks for the 5k suckers!
I can't read much Japanese so I can't get her tone, but considering she was retarded/masochistic enough to combo the pain with vaccine side effects, and considering the stereotypical Japanese attitude towards mental health, maybe she genuinely believed this was heavy or shameful enough to paywall.

Mumei was walking around the Red and White teams to check which of her senpais have tails. She also didn't run the relay because she was supposed to have left before that event.

Come to think of it, did anyone who said they might leave halfway actually leave?

Regarding the IRyS/Kronii rrat, IRyS does seem to go out of her way to banter with Kronii and Kronii usually reciprocates. Plenty of quotes to take out of context.

Calli's twerking is infectious (although the moment IRyS sees AZKi watching she gets embarrassed)

Since no one said it yet, RIP Iofi (top right)

I've played it a bit, they're probably going to get shit on if they go actual pvp rounds if they're not already familiar with MOBA style gameplay. A lot of the same characters get used and I'm not entirely sure if it's just because they're popular pubstompers or imbalanced in some way, but every one of the pvp rounds I played ended with me getting jumped by a Jackie that wasn't on free rotation.

Pulling ahead is 65% item build path luck, 35% actual skill or so it feels to me. No shop, no currency, no lanes, limited inventory space. It is way more in common with a battle royale than MOBA. You have to scavenge items from containers around the zones and build your items on the move, and while the game does have community sourced build/path guides built in that show you where to go zone to zone and what items you need, learning that on the fly is hard and you still need an element of memorization to know where to find what. Made harder of course by different zones being locked out as death zones over time, 30 seconds in a death zone and you just instadie. This also isn't dealing with the fact that healing items (HP and MP) are also crafted but aren't included in builds, so you just need to memorize which are the best and what you need to make them and also manually gather those along the way.

Crafting, looting, PvE, and even running gains you exp to level all the same, but they're also individual skills that level up through use, so if you get to higher levels solely on looting, you'll be further behind on the damage curve than people that have the same items but have also been PvE since their Weapon passives will have higher values. Beyond QWER abilities, there's also a D weapon-type active specific to the kind of weapon, and T passive that scale the character's passive features. The ability path can also be defined by a build guide but a lot of time they're not. Taking the time to sit and read your abilities in a game is losing very critical time you need to not fall behind both the damage curve and the first zone timer lockout.

Fighting with no items, at low levels, is functionally a slap fight. It'll take forever and combat is pinged on the map for anyone in the area, so even if you spend 4 minutes ticklefighting, someone that's been running around the area building their weapon can pop out of a bush three levels ahead when you're both at 5% and just destroy you both, which in the long run isn't that profitable. The only real gain from killing other characters is being able to loot their items, but most of the time they'll have different stat needs than you might, so really you're just murdering a dude because their pockets are full of coffee and hamburgers. The real shit begins after about 10 minutes, everyone that isn't cucked by RNG will have probably 4/6 of their items minimum and a few would have died in skirmishes for the limited, timed spawn resources they might need. Zone shutdowns will start funneling people into a smaller area of the map and at about 13 minutes the roaming superboss Wickeline spawns in and starts strutting around safe zones leaving a huge poison trail that aggroes her if you step in it. She will assrape anyone that isn't 6/6 on their items and at least over level 14, and even then you better have good healing items, have a ton of lifesteal or be an actual god at kiting if you try to fight her, but it's almost worth because she always drops a few powerful healing items, some other shit I can't remember, and gives a potent true damage DoT buff. Gives the kind of edge you'd need to deal with the fact everyone around this point of the game that's still alive has a ton of sustain by nature of itemization.

I'm not surprised they're looking to get this kind of exposure. When I started getting into it they were having some kind of streamer tournament or something along those lines. I imagine this'll probably bring a spike of interest in the game, but I'm more interested in how many people will get filtered by either getting rolled on by the same 3 characters across 13/18 of the players per round, or that 90% of the build guides are in korean and only give item paths and no other information.

Even as a gunty fuck myself, I still walk much faster than those things. It would take some serious problems to get me to actually consider using one.

Regarding Zen: if it really is a dude, like, not trans, just a dude larping as a girl, now would be the best time to come clean. If it's really true that some males have passed the new auditions, the time seems right.

Oh...I know this game. Some of my friends are playing it, though they said ita hard to find matches sometimes. Its like Battle Royale but using a MOBA gameplay. Pretty weird game if you asked me. The aesthetics has the stupid Teachwear feel to it, so I think its either a chinks game or the koreans
 

This vtuber has an interesting way / angle of presenting cooking streams. Kind of like how Kiara wanted to do her tree decoration.
That is pretty cool/good way to avoid leaking face.

Regardless of how the girls feel, the company feels another way. They aren't supposed to show their faces or even their hands. They have to wear gloves on camera. Its beyond exceptional, but they want to sell the illusion that "anime is real". They're really anime girls! Trust me.
While there might be some truth to this im also guessing it has to do with also avoiding any issues IRL with stalkers. In a way some of these girls are as famous as some movie stars yet they can still go out in public without causing a scene. I'm sure the girls also appreciate this.

Damn, that first clip with Kiara basically saying that Mumei is retarded makes me think someone's rrat about her being mentally challenged is accurate.

Really surprised at how talkative Cali was on Team Red C. I'm glad I watched Irys pov because apparently White C were really mellow and chill probably because they were sleepy af. Moona and especially Anya were background characters, Ollie and Reine switched roles so Ollie was actually pretty tame. Irys and Reine at this point just seem to vibe with everyone.
Been saying this since forever. To me Reine is one of the top-tier collab partners as she can match anyone's energy and she can speak the 3 languages. Irys seems to be the EN version of Reine. As for JP, they don't really have anyone like that. If Botan knew English they could probably be it.

The biggest difference is that she does have a softer side that she doesn't really show so much as Pippa. It's really obvious that she cares about her community, and that she's very passionate about VTubing. Sometimes, she does get pretty emotional. These are things I think she doesn't want to show to the /vt/ or Kiwi Farms crowd, but if that's the separation she wants (her old community, and the Pippa enjoyers) then the cat is well out of the bag on that.


Damn dude, I felt that shit.

I see shit like this and I just get depressed thinking that if it wasn't for the internet she probably wouldn't have anyone to talk to as no one would put up with her shit. I have a pretty dark sense of humor and I often have to stop and think if maybe I went a bit too far with the shit I say IRL but for the most part people laugh at it. If I were a bit more socially retarded and less aware of the people around me I would probably push them away also.
