Yes JL7ten, it is me. As much as any character a person plays online is their true self. I am not Tenno, Rrat, Pig of Capitalism, Venezuelan Cartel Kingpin, A Weatherman, Saudi Oil Sheikh, Ghost of a Dead Emperor or any of the other characters I play. They are masks I wear to tell stories for an audience of two. The only difference between myself and every other larper is that I have ridiculous amounts of money to throw around.

Been kind of annoying that I haven't watched many streams lately. My work schedule has ramped up and most people I want to watch stream inconsistently or at times I can't watch at. Last stream I watched full was the Spooky's stream.

The meds won't work for a schizo like Tenno, the dude needs a straight jacket and a padded room.

To change the topic a bit i want to ask you this: How important is a Lore in a vtuber? or it is unnecesary to have one (or a heavy one).

To put my perspective, i think its unnecesary when people watch you for your entretainment value and not because how deep is your lore. Some people force a Lore in a character just to be taken more seriously or because others did it, specially big corpos like Hololive, but there is an issue: Myth for example didnt push too hard on a heavy lore like Council did, and we see the results now, Council didnt flew farther than Myth on popularity. In fact maybe the heavy Lore confused and scared people rather than keeping their attention and they forgot about it, even the Council girls were confused about their respective Lores in their 1st collab, it was way too much put on a plate that didnt needed to be filled.

For me it goes hand in hand with design and is the hook that gets me to stick around until the content and streamer picks up the slack
Plus it makes for good inside jokes and audience twisting for fun chat interactions

She needs to move, too. It seems like her internet issues are actually driving her nuts. I can't blame her on that since internet issues and dealing with POS ISPs is fucking miserable.

This is the best evidence that she still lives in Canada. The ISPs are a fucking disaster in general and they get progressively worse the farther from major population centers. If you're not in Victoria or Toronto, might as well stoke the fire pit and get some buffalo jerky ready because you're participating in tonight's static raid prog via smoke signal.

Maybe I'm cynical but he probably knows she has a huge audience and speaking positively about her music will drive some of that audience to check him out. That said he constantly pauses shit, talks about the rhymes, and tries to interpret every line. He's not as critical and mostly praises but there seems to be reasoning behind his praise instead of "LUL I DONT LIKE WHITE GIRL RAPPING".

I understand her frustration although in her case it's having a negative effect on her work which probably makes the situation even more stressful.

See, I do agree that Kiara did salvage herself somewhat because her "Phoenix warrior with terrible shield and sword" design was the least interesting of the 5 girls. The KFP thing is the most interesting thing she did but I still find it a really boring gimmick. It's just the bland "All my viewers are forced to do what I say" thiing. Loads of other girls did that long before she even debuted.

I don't like Kiara because her entire bit seems to be flip-flopping around between things. Debuted and was boring? Okay, well, now she's a super lesbian obsessed with Cali which was just cringe. That didn't take off as well as she expected because Cali got so popular on her own? Okay, well, at least I'm the only one who can speak Japanese fluently! Oh... that just annoyed my fanbase when I tried to shoehorn it in... well, now I'm the "fan girl" stereotype obsessed with Pekora. Okay, that kinda worked but after I met her, it burnt out quickly. Now I run KFC. Okay, that didn't really take off. Well, now I'm a talkshow host with the Japanese girls to leech off their popularity. Well, that burnt out surprisingly quickly... Okay, now I'm a dictator in charge of KFP forcing my viewers to work for me. Okay, that kinda worked. Well, now I'm the "head" of the Holobirds, because I'm the 3rd most popular of the group (despite being the number 1 in subs), but at least the 1st can't even speak English so poor Subaru has to awkwardly sit in the corner during collabs.

I have no idea what gimmicks she's still doing at the minute or other gimmicks she was bouncing around doing between the ones listed above. I think she's got the weakest "gimmick" and personality as a character and if someone put a gun to my head and told me to name her gimmick, I'd say it's just leeching off other members. She's the one always trying to do off-collabs to get fan art made. She's the one who has most heavily connected herself to her iRL persona. She was desperate to be the first to collab with as many JP talents as popular. She tried to force herself into the popular Pekora/Moona pairing when that was huge, the second it burnt out, she lost interest in it entirely.

Ame's lore and personality did change a lot so much so she's probably my favourite of Myth. Cali's did too but Cali's first personality of being kind of awkward and weird just didn't work for me, her 'I'm a cool boomer dad chad' thing also doesn't really work at all for me. Gura has been pretty consistent from what I've seen. Ina, I haven't watched a lot of because she's just 'fine' to me. Not one I've ever wanted to seek out to watch but not annoying like I find Cali can be or Kiara just is.
Click to expand...
So your advice would be to stick to one thing and one thing only even when it's not working anymore? Now that's plain dumb. You say Ame is your favourite, but she's also known for starting projects and ending them as soon as she feels bored, and people understand it's better for her to move to something new and exciting than continue forcing herself.

To be honest, I'd love to see a collab between Haachama and Silvervale; Chammers is, well, Chammers, and Vale is probably the second best vShoujo to watch after Ironmouse.
 
Might be late on this, but as a heads up whenever there is a premiere from Phase Connect go to it and cheer it on. Fishman got the ladies gift memberships for their channels and has been donating them. He did it for Michiru at her latest cover. It might just be a one off, but you never know.

Holobirds are out in full force this morning.

Reine and Kiara are going over the Vacation: Part 1


Lui and Mumei are playing Is Simon There? an hour after that

Edit: screw up on the the Hololive schedule. Mumei and Lui aren't collabing. Still be sure to watch the Bird Hag. In Hags We Trust.
