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

brb gonna cry

Reminds me of the time where Moona cried im Iofi's stream because she was so nervous when it came to approaching Pekora and Iofi wanted to be there to support her, maybe even help translate. Apparently, after Covid is over, Risu and Iofi want to meet up with Oga and Aruran in Japan and then Iofi wanted to ask Moona to come with them so that she can have an offline collab with Pekora

Hololive ID 2nd gen was just announced.


Took them long enough to add a second gen, but I guess cant be helped when the first one is kinda... just there.
They announced it right for the HoloID 6 month anniversary
Gotta say, that's pretty nice
Also, one of the designer is apparently Pochi Goya....

Kureiji is a zombie, another death-related character
Anya is a Keris, a Indonesian-Javanese weapon
While Pavolia is an isekai peacock princess or something, another bird-related character

Not a bad choice for character design, gotta wait until they showed what kind of characters and talents they are going to be. My eyes are on Anya and Kureiji because of their design. Pavolia seems to be another ara-ara character though

It's seemed to me, broadly speaking, that whereas Hololive sticks to "proteccable anime little girl" and "cute anime young woman with possibly huge tits," Nijisanji is a bit more ambitious about giving you teddy bear demons and old men with gray hair and chicks with bull-like horns and dudes in clown makeup and even a dog - not a dog-girl but a literal dog. Anyway, Kureiji's design strikes me as something closer to what Nijisanji would do. Good to see some variety, but I'm guessing the proteccable anime little girl (Anya) or the cute anime young woman with huge tits (Pavolia) will be… more profitable, for lack of a more tactful word. To that extent I wonder what the decision-making process is for the avatar designs in both companies and what leads to the approval of the less moe designs.

I've been wondering when they were gonna announce these. I'd heard some time ago that a little bit after auditions closed that a popular indie vtuber there did a farewell stream, so I wonder if she really will turn up reincarnated here.

I'm digging the fuck outta Kureji's zombie girl design. One of her eyes looks like a button, I don't even know what her other eye is but it looks cool, and she has a soda tab for an earring. There's everything to love.
 
I was laughing my ass off at this. You can tell she's trying to stay in character by being embarrassed, but she has this unmistakable look of glee while it's happpening. Of course, I worry that she's going to get crucified by SJW types over this because she didn't perform the correct LGBT affirmation rituals.
