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

nah it's just that shadow person as far as I can tell. Everyone from Fuwatopia (the group she was actually part of) after looking through their feeds today, they all were either posting hype on their TL's watching the debut, or tweeting at her directly to congratulate her.

Even the guy that was posting comforting shadow when she was bitching on her TL tweeted at Ceres to "welcome her to the community" (since he obviously can't acknowledge he knows she was a vtuber before.

and all of the others just seemed genuinely excited for her debut. So I'd personally walk back any of my previous implications of her coworkers in general being mad, it just seems to be a singular bitter bitch that wasn't even part of their group and is predebut as a vtuber altogether.

She isn't pre-debut. She was pre-debut on Jun. 1 when she made her pinned tweet showing off her concept art and whatnot that @Girlboy69 posted, but she HAS been creating content on Twitch so at the very least it's unfair to equate her to a political dramafag v-tweeter.
 
Last I saw, on the 21st she kinda backed off slightly and said that she'd wish the friend in question well or something but pointed out there was more to the story than the public saw but she wasn't going to expose her. Which is stupid, why even speak up and bitch in the first place? So either Shadow is jealous or Fauna was a bitch, or Fauna got an opportunity and took it like anyone (including Shadow) would if given the chance.

We aren't sure of just what Cover tells talents to not say to people about their identities in Hololive but some Holos don't even tell family. If I was close to Shadow and half-expected her to react like this, I wouldn't have told her either in fear of her leaking and ruining it for me.

Call me schizo but I still get a slight feeling that Shadow had some sort of girl crush and is bitter with how she "love cute girls" and this situation felt "like a break up."
White girls are the worst thing to happen to the internet.

Edit: Hakos watches Ayame? How do you watch someone that never streams? lol
 
Anyway, it seems none of the Council were kyOresu, which is a bit of a shame. I'd love to see her be a full-time V-Tuber.

I didn't pay attention to that. My bad.

I still think it's a stupid idea to publicly post vague grievances when the public won't know why because you refuse to tell them.

In addition to my schizo-esque shit above, she could have also just done this for attention and then started to back off when the rest of the group was happy for Fauna and she realized that she probably shouldn't air all this shit.
 
Yeah, and tbh the ass is kinda ehh. But the shit is so low-res I can barely see if anything IS there or not. She must be wearing something there, there is a thingy on the front so...what's exactly the commotion?
She's wearing a white swimming suit as part of the cosplay. During the hours she's moving around playing game, her ass ate most of it though, but she isn't butt naked.
 
Schedule from Kronii. Looking a bit forward to that Frostpunk stream and I wonder if she'll be interested in playing the sequel that was just announced recently.

Frostpunk and Superhot are both good. They give me mildly high hopes that she'll play some interesting games.

Still want a Spaghetti Factory in a Factorio server. Amelia would probably love the trains.
 
Anyone had any juicy update from Ceres’s toxic colleague? Ceres is smart to get out of that toxic group. If they are not toxic they would keep their mouth shut and wait for HoloEN3 and ask for referral from Ceres herself just like how Holo Council is so Korean biased with Ina referral (Ina is no longer the sole professional illustrator of Holo and hope they would start release some juicy doujin … for content)
Was that actually confirmed?
I remember reading about it for a few times but never thought too deep about it.
I just thought that learning Korean was popular among the girls because of Kpop
 
Update on Lyrica:

I found time to watch her graduation announcement and I'm convinced she's done streaming for good. One of her goals is to reach 100K subs on YouTube so she can commemorate her efforts with a plaque, and it seems she's moving to the Maldives.

It was 30 minutes of her crying, setting up a victory lap of collabs with the likes of Pikamee, HoloID, and her illustration family. She was also talking about getting a refund for a L2D that never came to pass so she can donate it to charity, so this opportunity to move has sprung up pretty recently and she's took it.

In short, I find it very unlikely she's a candidate for NijiEN Wave 3, and if she is she's REALLY toyed with her viewers' emotions on something that will be found out the moment she speaks on debut.

Shannon's graduation announcement stream, however, was much more chipper and with a swift end to activities (Aug. 27). The kind of stream you'd expect from someone who knows they have something lined up in the future. Her reason is even that she is 'Journeying to new realms'.

I personally think it's safe to remove Lyrica from the list and add Shannon to it.
Just how much stock can we put on the 'moving to the Maldives with a benefactor' anyways? You gotta remember that part of her schtick is scamming (trolling) her audience. Toying with her viewers' emotions is definitely one of her cards.

Re: Shannon, I do remember hearing sometime ago that she was auditioning for something, but never got a firm answer on what.




Unrelated, Tetris Effect Connected is finally on Steam, and coming to Switch on October. For the love of all that is holy, when are either Suisei or Calli/Ina/Kiara gonna get sponsored to play it? (the latter because the three of them also had that incredibly awkward sponsored Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 stream long ago)

Absolutely.

On the flip side, though, I also think that if her MO was some kind of revenge for being beaten to Holo or whatever, then she should be aware that airing this out publicly is career suicide as there are almost definitely going to be future auditions for these companies.

I'm a bit skeptical that she ever applied for this reason. Even fucking Delutaya, who aired Cover out on a private twitter account after Coco graduated, was STILL smart enough to immediately delete her shit and clean it up.

Her schtick though was that she was a grandma aged retired magical girl who likes to scam people. "Finding a sugar daddy in the Maldives I can scam for the rest of my life" totally feels like a comedy option way to retire the character on a good note. Especially when on the slides she had the line "Don't make me cry I hate you all." She just seemed really attached to the character, and you could tell she felt bad about leaving/betraying the fans. I would think if it was a wind down due to other reasons, she would go about it another way.

That's a fair analysis. I didn't catch that line so I took it seriously.

I'm still not too sure what her angle would be, though. Lyrica had 80K subs at the time of her announcement, and to many she's more than just a V-Tuber. Plenty of PH/ID girls essentially see her as their local Kizuna Ai; the character itself means a lot to a lot of people. In terms of growth then she'll almost definitely get 'bigger' in Nijisanji, but she'll never have that status as a pillar of the SEA scene if she's in NijiEN.

It WOULD make sense for Nijisanji if their next wave includes Lyrica and Shannon, who are very good friends and have ties to LazuLight, but I just don't know exactly what Lyrica sees that I don't with the move, which is why I think it's permanent.
 
Probably the last one to figure this one out, but Choco-sensei might be as thirsty as Matsuri, she just happens to hide it better.
Her thumbnails are usually from her N° 1 her fan, Fumihiko (Twitter, Fanza -NSFW-) and she likes a lot of lewd content on twitter.

Scrolling through her feed she just seems super menhera. My take on it would be that she's just mega clingy and bitter that her "friend" didn't make amends with her.

Seeing stuff like this

In her feed gives a pretty strong impression of someone who is just super clingy and high maintenence, probably a decent chance her and Ceres weren't even really that close just that them stopping talking and Ceres moving onto hololive triggered the menhera abandonment issues.
 
Jesus this thread picked up 100+ pages of posts since the last time I looked.

The debuts were decent, I don't have any strong feelings about any Council members yet.

I didnt even watch the debuts, dunno man, after Coco's graduation the magic is kind of gone.
I still like Vtubers, but i dont actively seek them like before, and aside from Ina or Pippa I dont follow their schedules that much
