Is it weird if I want IRyS to sing some Nightwish songs? I don't expect Floor Jansen's level, but man I want some metal covers. Mana doesn't count, fuck her.

So you're ESL and underage? Minors aren't allowed on this site

To my credit I didn't even read everything before making the joke lol!

Zero expectations, but I did fill it out as properly as I could.

You're more qualified than I am already, this puts you a bit ahead lol!

(I didn't actually apply too lol!)

Mana does some retarded shit in the few times she is actually doing any streaming, if she wanted to share that political video then do it on the stream's description or whatever, interrupting a stream to show this horseshit is really fucking dumb. Comparing her to IRyS is comparing Chris-Chan's drawings to a piece by Michelangelo!

 

[I am not here]

Gotta admit.. IRyS has a voice that would prolly fit in a Disney movie. The horror

 

[Cubanodun]

That nephilim nailing Never gonna give you up lmao is illegal to be this good

 

[Rezza]

I'm curious though, is IRyS popular in Japan? I think you almost can find a JP Superchat on her stream (which she obviously answer with fluent Japanese)

 

[Sexy Potoo]

for the retards who were going "REEEEEEEE IRyS is EN Vsinger why no EN sooooong REEEEEE"

now stop REEEEEEing and complaining she only sings and speak JP when she's a talent under a JP company

The stream is set to private some reason? I saw it recommended on youtube and clicking on it lead me to a blank video stating that it is private.

I missed IRyS unarchived karaoke because a cobra invade my patio. Now that's new.

Why would a hololive member not archive a stream?

Huh.
Do you need to be financially advantaged in order to become V-Tuber ? I thought it was open to anyone who could afford a rig.
Am I wrong ? (No, that's not sarcasm but a genuine question.)

Yes and no. Making a Live2D model rigged can cost anywhere from 1-2k depending on the rigger. A decent PC to run games and everything can cost 1-2k also. While 2k isnt really a huge amount of money if you work, it does seem like a big investment for something that might not really pay off especially if you already have a full-time job. On the other hand someone in Highschool or in College might not have the money to do it even if they have the time.

So in all the hardest part is probably just being entertaining enough and consistent enough to keep a sizeable amount of viewers. Doesn't matter if you have money or not.

For example, Kanduki Ama has been streaming for 9 months and she barely gets any views. At most 30-40 viewers per stream. I love her streams but I feel that nothing really makes her stand out enough for her channel to have a huge boom in viewership.

Yeah, I'm not particularly interested in Reine but hearing threat-ish talk as an American makes me want to push the issue.

If that's true then the turkey isn't anything special a 5 or 6. Damn literally none of the ID girls are cute all thats left is Anya.

I think she's adorable. I feel like most of the girls are conventionally cute but not hot the banging supermodel types everyone is expecting them to be.



Really loving her older model though.

On an interesting note Watame was the holomem in 2020 who streamed the most in absolute watchtime: 1272h 57m according to an inoffical fan statistic.

I think long superchat readings made a good chunk of this runtime, one of my favorite ones of Watame is her reaction and interaction with a 5 yo fan. really cute

I can see this. She usually streams a game for about 3 hours and then talks or reads superchats for another 3-4 hours. Its basically a full-time job.

Also caught the the silly face she did in time, absolutely reaction image worthy.

EDIT: HAPPY 2000 FUCKING PAGES LADS

Looks psychotic.

She said stuff in private have been going bad too, didnt go into details on it but said she feels like nothing works out well for her, things never go her way
and she cant sleep at night because of worrying about things and she couldnt bring herself to look at the internet for a while
It's not entirely because of the throat issues, she said that just pushed her over the line of what she could deal with

Sad to hear, especially since Aki seems like one of the most well adjusted people in HL

Can't feel nice to be there 3 years and have your kohais just zoom past you like rockets either.

I mean, it's nothing new to her. She's always been a bit of a straggler, mainly to do with circumstance. But if we were to compare her to the Aki a year ago, I don't think anyone can deny that she's in a far better place.

Also, I still think Shallys is one of the most underrated songs of Hololive. I think had it came out a few months later it would have exploded and made Aki fairly popular, but sadly it came out a few months before her rise in popularity in the West. I also think the spelling might be a bit of a detriment, due to most people thinking of a Chalise, which brings up no results even if you look it up with Aki Rosenthal.

This fucking kills me inside. Aki is such a sweetheart yet nothing goes well for her and it really sucks. Her birthday stream was on the day Youtube was fucking up in Japan and no one could log in or view videos so a huge number couldn't even watch. If I were her manager I would push her towards doing more collabs or towards finding some sort of niche audience that follows her. Given how Shallys was written in some sort of elven-sounding language they should push her into going for D&D or fantasy type crowd.

Is it weird if I want IRyS to sing some Nightwish songs? I don't expect Floor Jansen's level, but man I want some metal covers. Mana doesn't count, fuck her.

That would be pretty cool but could she hit the notes? I missed the karaoke today (waiting for someone to upload it on Nyaa). Something a bit easier could be Lacuna Coil or Whithin Temptation.

Wait for them to upload it to Nyaa or for Ryuji's Holo Music Ch to upload the songs to youtube (basically a channel that uploads their karaoke songs)

Sasuga FPS Lion

think the part that got me was how Botan was just laughing away while Subaru is going "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH" not matter who she was facing off with

 

[Nolan Crush]

for the retards who were going "REEEEEEEE IRyS is EN Vsinger why no EN sooooong REEEEEE"

Spoiler: stream is unarchived

now stop REEEEEEing and complaining she only sings and speak JP when she's a talent under a JP company

EDIT: ty @Cubanodun for the link.. get your unarchived IRyS singing stream here

thanks for the mega.nz link, maybe I'll use that or catch a reupload on YouTube
I missed it because a overslept on a nap, which is upsetting

As much I would love to hear her try those but she gave an impression of a pop singer and definitely on Avril Lavigne camp during the good girl vs bad girl between Avril Lavigne and Taylor Swift (she also said she was pretty good at skating vs riding a bicycle). Her music choice is definitely on point.

I'm curious though, is IRyS popular in Japan? I think you almost can find a JP Superchat on her stream (which she obviously answer with fluent Japanese)

Within those rhyme game community like Osu etc. She did have a few live performance for some comicon but I’m more surprised on how no JP detectives has those footages of her . She’s kinda like Kson with the Japanese American girl who move to Japan. IRyS can sing while Kson can’t and Kson is more savage while IRyS is more tame.

A decent PC to run games and everything can cost 1-2k also.

A thing to consider for countries outside North America, Europe and East Asia is that official distribution channels for high-end electronics can be scarce and import taxes tend to be high, so the most common way to get the kind of components you'd need for a gaming and streaming PC is via small unofficial importers that can put a 2x mark-up on them or maybe even more. Combine that with the smaller purchase power and rampant wealth inequality of developing nations and it's no surprise that most successful streamers from countries like Indonesia come from upper-middle class backgrounds at the very least. It's the same reason why by far the most popular Spanish-speaking streamers are Spanish when Latin-Americans outnumber them 10 to 1.

 

[kadmckool]

I’m going to bed. Now waiting for Vtweeters and EnvyTubers screeching.

 

[ProfDongs]

Some really great streams the past few days, Pekora's Bus Simulator might have been her best in a while. Unrelated to her is this bit from another stream.

The next two minutes from this time stamp killed me, perfect end to it.

Think Kinslayer would be too taboo? Iirc, it's about the Columbine shooting.

We can't discount that yet, I think. I have a feeling that IRyS Minecraft JP Server shenanigans is a way for her to measure how far the management would tard wrangle her. Don't forget, she's a talented singer with lots of connection. She might want to know what her position is in the company as a talent

 

[Fau]

Yes, that is correct. I was thinking in The Phantom of the Opera since she mentioned it, or maybe Ghost Love Score, but I think the notes that Tarja and Floor hits are too much for IRyS, she has a beautiful voice but not at that level. Also her style is different. Nevermind, I just want to hear some chuubas sing metal songs. X-Japan covers would be cool too. ;-;
