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

EDIT:
To not double post
Holy shit @Miller I thought you were joking about her privating Pippa the Rippa lmfao
She did it live...the crazy bunny cringed so hard that she did it live.
She's such a dork.

EDIT:
That colab wasn't crazy anything crazy or outlandish but man was it soooooo nice. Pippa being forced out of her element by Tenma playing the tard I think helped her keep a level head. You could tell how much it meant to Pippa at the end when she was finally able to gush to Henya. There is no way that Pippa would've been able to go through with this a year ago and she was able to get through it fully unscathed with the clever help of her old fox friend. I am so damn proud of them. This and Lia's Pomu colab and Nasa's talks with Tomoshika to me really legitimizes Phase as a company and maybe is helping break down some industry barriers but that might me just being optimistic.

Pippa, you were wonderful. Hold your head up high, girl.

PixelLink revenue split
As many remember, Idol Corpo (the jew company) posted their revenue split and challenged the rest of corpos to do the same for 'transparency'.

PixelLink posted theirs just yesterday, and right as their audition period is coming to a conclusion on October 30th.

It's a significant proof since in one of /kuro/'s early thread there was an "insider" who was trying to defame the company. A small explanation of what is /kuro/ that I did in one of my previous posts (page 7563, #152,251). There is a possibility that the person selected for this model could be one of the two girls of AkioAir gen2 that went forward with their debuts https://twitter.com/KiviVT/status/1708692155542175915

On the brighter side, Raki Kazuki just had her birthday stream yesterday. And there were many guests, mostly from other small corpos. But the most surprsing one (1:14:30) is Momoki, aka. Caitlin Myers, aka. Nerissa Ravencroft. Another notable part is she received a single dono of 2,000 dollars when she was away from her computer; management told her, the donator tried to play it cool and didnt want to bring to much attention to themself (2:57:14 for the on-screen alert, 2:59:11 for her reaction).

V&U, State of the Union
A korean company that pivoted to English-only after finding not that much success within the korean market

Currently they are in the process of debuting their gen4, with a weird korean scheduling of teasing too much compared to any other corpo. Seems to be a horror-themed gen.

On the side of existing talents, Amano Serafi admires pippa and wants to do content like hers. Stream and timestamp of her startign to talk about Pippa and what she likes about her. https://youtu.be/_mMeX0lkQp8?t=4869
She is a numbers chaser herself, so it may be that she thinks she can grow to her size by doing the same. Eh, it has worked for many to copy others, but whether they can sustain the pace or handle the audience is another thing

Another talent, Liora Walkyria, is havign problems with management. I don't know her roommate, but some of her fans follow it and talk about what she says when it's relevant to her V&U persona. For a while now, she has mentioend how management has decreased their support for her ever since gen3 debuted because they are more successful in bringing audience and money. And in her last important rant, management has said to her face they see her as a "failure" and will support her even less. She is one of their original talents and is Korean herself.

BlueJump, a Korean 3D agency

Even before their vtuber company plan, they were already a company working with 3D. Even the program they are using for their vtubers is developed by them. Currently they have 2 talents: one for their KR branch, one for their EN branch, and have yet to find one for their JP branch.

This was honestly a lovely colab. Tenma and Pippa seem to be pretty good friends, regardless of being genmates. Pippa is a doofus and would have frozen if not for Tenma, but Tenma helped her out and then left so Pippa could just chill with someone that she see's as an Oshi after breaking the ice.
It all just warmed by baked potato of a heart. Tenma is just such a lovely person.
Rate my Rainbows if you wish, but this was a highlight for me over the last few months. I really do love Phase, I know that a lot of the attention that they have gotten is due to Pippa (and rightfully so) but Tenma really is an amazing Vtuber, top tier, 100% love.

This reminds me of that video I saw the other day:
Perhaps one day she will do a stream with her.

Serafi has always felt like a Pippa knockoff since her debut, being loud and aggressive with her chat and fans, so she might be more sincere about wanting to work with Pippa.

It does suck for Liora and all of Gen 1 if this is the case because she and Penelope were really pushed to carry things (Kokone was Gen 1.5 when the twins left). Liora is the tomboy who got big with Vampire Assassin and did gunpla builds when it was a new idea and even went to korea to meet up with management, Penelope is the musician with a TFT habit who seems to live in korea, Kokone is the chill handcam vtuber with the old sleeping dog. Gen 2 did well but Gen 3 really did hit it out of the park, I didn't realize Meeta Osita is almost at 40k, Maeve seemed to be the original breakout hit of the generation.
 
there is probably a story to that tbh
i mean i agree futa is fucking weird and gross but the way she knee jerk reacts to it with anger is as she would say weeeeadd
 
  • Agree
Reactions: ZMOT
Interesting couple of clips
Shouldn't be taken as a certainty, Matsuri herself said she doesn't actually know. Found it interesting that the two busy members she named are people who stream once a week, and not someone like Pekora.
