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

the main reason why Aki is more popular now is because a madlad translated a clip where she speaks her heart out, and as you know, the western fans are suckers for underdog stories.
Not that Aki does not deserve the attention, I love her calming voice, but without that one moment being clipped I dont think she woulda grown so much so fast.

its fine, to have the momentum coming from those pity stories. what would be a problem is if she keep relying on that stuff over and over again. just like that Holobass dude who keep screaming about his one time hit song got monetized. didnt watame got that sad story as well?

this certificed elite moment

Iofiteen and Anya from ID plus most of HoloStars are in the same boat, there's over 50 active Hololive talents, not all of them are going to end up as hits in America

funny thing is, now i gotta rely to Japanese sub at least to get interesting topic than most EN clipper do by clipping coomingbait clip.
found this channel couple while back that mostly clip ID gen to JP
so the ID and stars may suffer from the overseas popularity, but at least there someone try to make a hit on JP market

I just found this video of Aki singing a song in her native Elvish.

Why isn't this woman the most popular Vtuber yet?

Is it just because there are no memes or flanderization about her?

She is severely underrated, and thanks for sharing her first song with the thread.

I see Roboco is getting more clips recently, I can kind of see her new costume having a hand on that

The problem with other Holo talents, as always, is the lack of clips about them. But when they do have some, the views are quite decent

You can add her recent 3D upgrades and funny shenanigans to it too. Recently, she's been a zenloss princess.

Yeah I agree that Roa and Ichikara were at fault here, they could have handled it so much better, I wanted the tourist to read the info at hand and reach to their own conclusions.

To play Devil's Advocate though, I remember reading somewhere that Nijisanji had a "rule" about not overlapping with other liver's "shticks", in this case Meiro's natural accent clashed with Roa's forced one.

I have heard that too, I've also read rumours that it's more like certain members will 'lay claim' to a schtick, with Ryushen allegedly putting the brakes on anyone who tries to make an androgynous character.

I guess in a company that's all about variety and being unique, it also forces them to make that part of their identity. As is the case with Roa, taking your RP too seriously can be pretty devastating.

Double posting, but HoloForce (4th Gen) song official MV

edit: I'm not gonna lie, Coco's parts in the song made me shed some tears due to how relevant it is

The lyrics in general made me pause. They were all written by Kanatan, and they feel so personal.
They're cheesy, yes, and yet their struggles are relatable.

Ina won't collab with Coco, because of her roommate's work. If you want to spin it negatively you can say she kneels to her Chinese overlords (see as example for what might happen if she collabs: https://nichegamer.com/2021/06/22/r...azur-lane-and-arknights-after-chinese-outcry/).

For Gura I actually think she would be too emotinal and break down crying and so Gura avoids collabing with her.

Racism is totally okay and should be encouraged towards any race or ethnicity who would willingly make an enemy of the world.
