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

What is it with chuubas and Apex tournaments that ends with them crying?
Well, just like with anything. You wanna win, you wanna honor the commitment your team mates are putting in and not let them or yourself down. Getting good at something is a lot of emotions and effort. She's also a young woman as far as I can tell, she's just gonna have a lot of emotions.

So, wanna bet how many pages the 5 debuts plus the collab will generate?
10+, 20 by the end of it.
 
She has a newer chibi vtuber model and gave away her pink haired one to a friend of hers since it would've been a waste to not use it considering how expensive it was
Seen a few people selling vtuber models they didnt use. Wonder if people are actually buying. As for Lily's model, any idea how much it cost and is her friend streaming? Would like to see it more.

I'm fully bullshitting here since I really can't remember the exact number, but it may have been more than 3k. Her friend and PA (jummychu) streamed using it once and called his stream "the adventures of Billypichu".

The biggest increase of posts was during Coco's graduation and I think nothing will top this - I usually start reading the thread at the same hour every day and there were like 35 pages of new posts. Usually it is approx. 8 pages. I expect around 20 pages during debuts, maybe more - depending on what time it will be in the USA.

While we are doing this immoral and unethical deed of numberfagging: Marine's "Unison" has over 2M views now, which doesn't really affect my enjoyment when listening to this song, but I'm happy that many other people share this sentiment.

Also Sakura Miko is playing Mario Kart now till she wins and this is a long stream already. But despite Miko getting the Mario Kart Experience™ (i.e. getting hit with waves of projectiles and losing) I think we as viewers are winning, because we can watch Sakura Miko for longer. But the only advice I can give to her is to git gud.
 
30 unless Nullay put us a cytube so w can sperg live there
You never know with how wonky the sites been because of the furry scat porn loving feds ddos'ing the site, we could have another outage. I'm too or not austic enough to try and interact with other vtuber boards.

Edit: Oh and have this wonderful drawing I found of Gura, while searching for smug Gura's to add to my smug Hololive folder.

This seriously set off my fight or flight response. Edit: Fuck why did I post this, I keep triggering myself every time I have to reload the page when it stops working and this is the first thing that loads.

Unison grew slowly on me. At first I wasn't too into it (unlike Ahoy!), but as Noel I think it was said, it's pretty addicting lol.
 
sad that Yostar will never do a collab with Cover again because CCP would crucify them.. or maybe the JP/Global version might.. who knows
No, any gacha knows China is their bottom line. Cover won't be collabing with a gacha again.

Azur Lane is already dying. They replaced Atago's VA and it killed the game in japan. They've been desperately pumping out japanese units to try and regain lost ground there but it doesnt seem to be working.
Now CCP are putting heavy regulations on gaming, labling them "electronic drugs" and investors are running from chinese games.
Any game that doesnt have a healthy audience outside china able to support it is on executioners row just waiting to see how far the CCP goes with the regulations, of course this isnt just limited to gacha games, every game company that invested heavily in china is fucked.

Someone need to sacrifice himself for the greater good on discord then

She was replaced on CN only but not on JP or Global, this is not the first time chinese gacha companies does that, Girls frontline and FGO did the same shit but CN is always considered the inferior version, the only complains i have heard (and i have) is the horrible power creeping

Edit: also Ina units are OP as shit, that Hololive bias

They hire the person who did Botan's rig all the time, they've rigged about a dozen of the hololive models, most recently Marine's new outfit, which turned out really well with the hoodie able to zip up and down



He redid Risu's model and people didn't like it



They should have just let her do both instead of insisting on one or the other
They should also give A-chan an actual channel
I just saw what Brian did for Risu's model and I think it turned out fine, its just extremely limited compared to what he normally does. And after I heard how Hololive doesn't allow special treatment with the models, makes sense that it's so minimal.

I call not it, only because I'm a lazy cunt, even if I'll end up watching the debut streams through the tears in my eyes, knowing I won't be able to sperg out on here, annoying everyone with my autistic views and opinions.

Unison is wacky but i have learned to love it, the 3-4 parth harmony "Onegai chuuuuuuuuu~" part is a beautiful thing.

It starts a little slow, though saying that I am a sucker for songs that do a good job building up, but as soon as I heard that part I was hooked, and can't help being a fag and singing along.

Don't tell me that, I had to drop that game cold turkey as I was having serious gacha addiction, I am glad I was playing during the Hololive colab and managed to get them all, even though I wasn't in the Hololive rabbit hole at that stage.

Uto-chan's been crying after a game of customs for the tournament. She's putting in a lot of effort and stress and I think it broke her. It's sad too, cause normally this girl's the sun itself in terms of energy and warmth.

Update, she's calming down and started talking.
Hearing her quietly sob to herself like that is heart breaking. Selen wasn't wrong, this game hurts you.
 
Unrelated, but I have sudden fear that one of the HoloEN2 is being rigged by Shin Umiushi, and I feel like I'm right.
Edit: Thanks guys now I'm also worried, as his "work" ruining models probably doesn't take very long, and that he could have shat the Anya one out so he could masturbate to his substandard work on the next "big" vtuber in the industry.
Did some scrolling through who each of the new girls are following assuming they'd follow whoever did their rigging.

Lo' and behold each follows 1 rigger each. (listed with another holo they've rigged for reference)

Baelz = Jujube (Mori Calliope)
Nanashi = Rariemon (Ina)
Ceres = Keffy (Kiara)
Sana = Tou_ilie (Reine)

Only one I can't get a bead on is Kronii, she's not following any Live2D artist.

Well they are not OP as things like META or UR Retros but Allen can rain torpedoes and be a fly swatter but she is conditional (you need to equip americans guns to her to do it) , Kazagumo is more like a CV escort with a ninja zombie skill (she heals damaged units after throwing wieners several times)

The only one of her boats that i dont particularly like from her is San Francisco (aka Harley) because her gimmick changes depend of her position so she is inefficient if you are in full auto clearing mode

People take this game way too seriously.
Is mostly the Asian mentality of blaming herself for not being enough and dragging the team, just remember how Aqua pouted when she lost in Mario Kart 8, i would not give a damn is not like money or anything of value is on the line

Tournament, emotions, not letting others down after teambuilding, teammates, yada yada.

Were it to be any other Apex streams, they wouldn't cry aside from sweaty rank grinding.

Looking back, good thing Aqua never actually joined a single Apex tourney. She cried when she 2nd place in Mario Kart tourney, imagine Apex tourney(:_(

Oh hey, Gurandma, been a while since I last heard that meme.

Praise for Senchou's new original song "Unison"
It's a good song, maybe even great. Certainly addictive. But more importantly than that is it's unique, and stands out from all the generic J-Pop. That means Marine is 2/2 with unique standout songs, and I couldn't be happier about that.

I know from karaokes, she can really belt out some powerful vocals too - hopefully her next original will showcase that.

Wow... those are all excellent, top-tier riggers! This is good news indeed (as long as Kronii is not rigged by Umiushi). And thanks for doing the legwork on that.



This is going to be obsolete by tomorrow, but I was keeping an eye out for better images of the new girls. They were added to the official site, but without full-body images yet. There was an image of all five on the Hololive subreddit's Press Release post, but it was super low-res. On the press release on the official Cover site, I snagged a larger version that was obscured behind some obfuscation. Not sure if there's anything better out there yet.

No wonder Sana looks a thousand times better rigged than the art alone does
