Anyone listen to Okayu's album? I don't usually listen to Japanese music on its own but I really enjoyed what she put out.

The album preview
I really like the dark undertone in the new songs.

Nipponese Gachikois are mad at laplus again, this time because she and her suspected boyfriend tweeted about moving to a new apartment within the same hour. They believe this simultaneous announcement is not a coincidence.
She also announced suffering from herpes and a bladder infection, so it can only mean seggs! Wild unprotected fucking with someone not them!
Her recent streams have had more dislikes than usual (500-1000) probably from those gachis.

English subbed clip of Laplus' ailments.
TL;DW
- Stomach flu
- Bladder infection
- Common cold
- Oral herpes
- Throat swelling
She's had a few streams since then and sounds better in them, but pain YMD.


Help, there's an interstellar in the korrrondo

DJ Mag's been maggin out on his loopstation for nearly an hour after his Splatoon stream now lmao. It's been pretty amateurish but he's made some cool-sounding beats, even if some of em do kinda sound like Bad Guy.

Did you watch until the end? I checked the VOD and he even impro sung during his outro. The VOD is 4:17:52 but holodex shows a message from him @4:18:18. So either DMCA or a smol yab

Speaking of chat: Was the Ina/Calli Rust collab the only stream in members-only mode? I checked a few other EN members and it seems so. Did Calli ask Ina to change hers too because of the "go take the photo" incident?
I realized that the hip man came out as a takodachi. I guess Watame can chat as moderator anyway so I don't know if she is a member too.

Shamelessly stolen from reddit, but the thing about members-only chat in Rust was requested by staff apparently.

Nice keytar, Reine.

The quoted post has a local archive but doesn't have the title of the clip, which was some lunacy along the lines of "Kronii lied".

Reine's birthday live was really good (kanauru and others like chroneco put it together). I liked the rock focused first part and the guest appearance was also a nice touch.

Since the Dan Dan comparison is gone I threw it together myself. After the first half it's a little bit out of sync. Maybe my editing software messed but I'm too lazy to fix it.
Here's the link for catbox since it's way faster than the kiw tor connection: https://files.catbox.moe/3wt5o1.mp4
After several attemps I managed to upload a compressed and rescaled version for a later date:

If Pippa is actually fat I'll have watch her more often. I also refuse to believe that Polka has slimmed down. And since we are on the topic of weight:

I'm not sure if I'm in the minority, but I haven't quite hit the wall with Rust yet.

I know the feeling, my hatred of Ark led me to only watching highlight clips. I can't do 6 hours of that shit.

I dont care much about Rust so im mostly ignoring it.

DrStupid said:
The space was archived on twitter by shiina herself, in case anyone wants to listen to it.
Some tidbits I found interesting:
- She has a concert in 10 days and Sakana hasn't talked about it with her. Not even discussed a tracklist.
- Mngmt is still bugging her about being "too formal" and to "loosen up", even when she brought up on stream that she's like this IRL. She remaked what makes her uncomfortable is she never had outside feedback regarding vtubing Vtubing.
- Sakana and her are talking in "more friendly terms", that might be why they're more blunt with her about said feedback.
- Around 30 minutes in she talks about the Kiwi Censor Bar, it was Pippa's suggestion, and since it was Pippa's channel and not her own, she felt it was the right place at the right time. She wouldn't risk doing something like that on her channel. She made the skin herself (the base and the added censor bar). She got plenty of marshmellows telling her she shouldn't have done that, because radioactive and all that. In the end, she found the whole thing pretty funny.
- She doesn't lurk the farms, she just saw the edits. ("Not a site I'm familiar with")


(I'll be updating this as I'm catching up with the space)

I missed most of the start so thanks for the recap. Looking forward to the concert. Someone near the end started doing a therapy bit of sorts it was pretty cringe. I asked about the game tournament/collab thing. Guess she's open to it but doesn't want to touch any of the organizing.

Thanks for some replies to the question of what attributes or assets of vtubers you like
Already mentioned Pippa's eye dilation and she also has a good range of motion - you could tell she was bending over to pick up something in the Michael interview.
KSON's model is a pretty good at showing most of the vtuber features I like - Himono is truly amazing
- wide range of lateral movement
- breaks out of the 2d plane with foreground and background interaction (tongue out and bokken on shoulders)
- wide range of emotions, motions and styling (like ponytail and hair down)
- bouncy physics when they are implemented in the overall model not just oppai
- layering of outfits and accessories
---- somethings don't work but I love that KSON is always pushing the limits (yes, even the cursed code Miko 3D she has)
butbutbutttt.png
this photo of her ass just doesn't make sense... Still Himono is amazing - but she does need a new/good chair so support her if you like.
What brought this topic up was watching Lumi, and seeing her lateral movement
- That alone makes me want to watch her
- The swaying, head tilting and front to back movement is just so... feminine (I can see how people call her a Stacy, just those movements call to how hot girls moves IRL) Shitpost for comparison but Lumi has more ... teehee
- Also, her eyes are really well done with the light reflection moving along with her

Fav general asset - this fucking thing

The fact that Aqua can make this abomination cute defies reality.
I also like when the mascots are on screen and interact with talents. Even if they are rigged to copy the models movements I find them endearing. Millie and Grimmi are great examples, very Kiki's Delivery Service. Slimekin is also cute.

Let's now talk about how interesting these 3D lives have been and in general how vtubers are using the medium in interesting ways.
Sara's DJ show where she showed off songs and streams was very fun, really felt like hanging out with her
Also, Sara really brings out the Haato in Chama.
The recent variety shows are fun, Botan and Aruran's recent lives were cool to see.
The Hololive 5th that mixed the 3D with IRL people was fun. Fubuki and Sora's fit with how flush their butts were to the chair was interesting. Either Sora has a big ass like Marine or she is shorter/taller then her model which make it harder to align it with the IRL object.
Not 3D live related but Choco has been having cooking streams where as they cook the 2D live models are still tracking. I wonder if she is using head rigs and multiple mics or something.

Anyways - long post to ask what are some interesting 3D lives that ya'll have seen and like?

Very old I know -
Pippa dental saga
Always interesting hearing ya'lls thoughts on dentistry as I thought it was standard to get a check up every 6 months. If Pippa keeps taking your advice she is going to end up being featured by Chubbyemu - A vtuber listened to fans and this is what happened to her feet

HOLO vs. NIJI 3D guests
- Matsuri brought in Wat-Chan for basically a normal stream. +1 for the rrat that Niji isn't able/allowed to bring Holos in (Haato on screen with Sara doesn't count).

Moona's vocal lessons must be idol focused, and tough.

Well, her style of dancing is way closer to KPOP or US hip hop singers. Compare her movements to Towa's while singing high tide.

Or it could be cause she is thicccc, maybe it helps with motion capture.

Retink said:
I've noticed that Pippa has a way of bringing out the weird parts of people. Lisa seems to be the most innocent of the bunch while others probably have more edge. It's also why I don't really believe the whole hyper leftist thing, because maybe it was a small phase, but even for that she seems way too ok with making jokes and allusions to things that are verboten in that sphere even in passing.

Also good ol' yabbit, lisping so hard even in text that it's racist. :story:

Quoting you just because I want an excuse to post this video of Lisa being cute watching some veggie video along with Pippa's song.

It's really amazing how Pippa got a sweetheart like Lisa for a friend.

I think Pippa collects these people like magnets. Rita and Pina might not collab (collabbing with Pippa must feel so surreal) but they see how earnest the yabbit is. Tenma gamer rages but is quite a sweet person and a mega contrast with mold pippers with her nails and cooking skills.

Imagine being such a fag that a woman interacting with a man disgusts you. Anyways, enjoying looking at Vesper's FTL vods. Wasn't sure about the male EN branch but I'm liking this boomer.
