Eagerly waiting for the next batch of HoloEN girls

I just heard that Silvervale and Veibei are leaving VShojo.

Huh.

Leaving with their models, or retiring/returning as someone new?

VShojo's got a tweet about it, I'll find it in a second. They're keeping their models and anything else related to their character, though

Edit: https://twitter.com/VShojo/status/1651088889078005760

Ah, I see thanks.

Think I'll just avoid the speculation drama on reddit over why they're leaving.

Kson selected as one of the FIVE finalists for being in Like a Dragon Gaiden. There's one grand prize winner, but I think at this point all five will appear in the video game.

So as I understand, all five will appear in Like a Dragon Gaiden. One grand prize winner will also appear in Like a Dragon 8.

VShojo is finished
https://twitter.com/NyanNyanners/status/1652810340831461377

they've still got like, what, seven, eight members?

gotta wonder what the heck they're doin' over there, though

that whole team is collapsing. I wonder what happened behind the scenes

Three big members leaving definitely raises questions, even if just a coincidence.

The message is in the translated text.

Oh shit lol

does she think they just can't read japanese over there or something lol

Miko is 12 hours into her marathon to finish Super Mario World, she's a PON baby but she's trying her best

That was the most painful thing I've ever watched, baby brain is a real thing

Did you guys only read the first tweet or what?

https://twitter.com/ksononair/status/1652892954351255553

I have to say it in Japanese! I'm not dissatisfied with my contract with vshojo, so I can't quit at all! But if I receive an offer from a place with better terms than vshojo, of course I will consider it, and depending on the situation, I may negotiate with vshojo to make the terms the same or better
I want to work in a place where people appreciate me the most. Because I think!
On the company side, if there are many retirees due to the current contract, let's improve the conditions for the remaining children! I hope that the whole industry will be treated better and it will be a win-win
What I want to say is that Vshojo is a place where you can freely negotiate or quit, so you don't have to worry about anything!

https://twitter.com/ksononair/status/1652895325437464576

In society, people who are in a place where treatment and wages are not suitable are told, "Don't change jobs." I don't understand, I want to raise the treatment of the industry

google TL dropped the ball a fair bit on the last one -

When people are working somewhere with bad pay or poor worker treatment, everyone always tells them to "just change jobs!". But for some reason when it comes to vtubers, that's "betraying the company", or "ruining all you've worked for", or so on. I don't get it, I just want to improve working conditions for the industry

That said, I think there is a pretty big difference between this sentiment and making a tweet on your official company affiliated account that basically says "yo someone out there give me a better offer than this place", especially in a very public facing industry where image is very important

Cute and hardworking Coyote doing a 24 hour stream tomorrow. She streams a fuck ton so this shouldn't be too bad for her

Has anyone checked out that Sony? Vtuber dragon girl?

A nice design, by Fauna's designer/papa, but not heard anything else about them yet.

sony, and dragon girl, but also I don't think has anything to do with fauna's designer so I suspect not who you are talking about lol. but just in case you are, yes she's very good. has a lot of energy but isn't overly hyper or anything and has very good banter with chat. I just wish her streams lined up a little better with my sleep schedule but I'm halfway across the world so watching jp streams is always a fight against timezones

Lira seems nice. If I had a nickel for every smooth-voiced sleepy cinnamon roll who gets hooked on minecraft I'd be up to like a dollar by now.

I don't speak JP so I don't follow her, but a lot of my friends in the vtubing space do and they seem to be having a good time

Not who I was talking about. Somehow I thought
https://virtualyoutuber.fandom.com/wiki/Kokuyou_Lira Was the Sony Vtuber for some reason.

But was interested in the actual Sony one. Makes me wonder if other companies might make one if she continues to do well.

she's sony too, sony actually has a ton of vtubers so it's a bit more than if "she" continues to do well. But I get the impression that sony doesn't really offer them a ton of support and doesn't want to get too involved in vtuber land so it's more just that they have some vtubers since vtubers are one of the big media things nowadays and sony is a media company. like a default outcome rather than a real effort.

lira is VEE, uno is VerseN, they're both sony. sony also has Prism Project (though they just bought it, didn't found it), which might be of more interest since it's an english vtuber group rather than a japanese one. I don't watch any of them though so I can't give specific recommendations

Ooooh.

That's good to know. Be interesting to see if they all work out long term then. No reason they can't tbh

Kiara and Ironmouse tagenting about idolgroups and forgetting she was there to be interviewed was a treat.

Mythbreaker conclusion happening on Cali's channel right now. Time to see Vic be bullied some more!

This stream was hilarious, Council really are great together.

Well, now we know that last minute changes in plans are probably stealth suspensions.

Can that company stop shitting up this hobby for 5 fucking seconds?

What's happened now?

It has been a long time since I have posted in this topic. I just wanted to say that only vtuber I follow is Chumba and she is great

Not sure what's going on exactly but if it's a JP event, there seems to be a pretty nasty spread of COVID going around in, from what I can tell, ID, JP, and CN. From what I can get from social media anyway.

They're talking about the recent Zaion from Nijisanji drama.

That whole thing read like somebody was trying to make excuses for Zaion.

Huh. Welp

I'll just stay in my corner and complain about wildly inflated shipping costs, I think.

Same. Why I've not got any merch as shipping to Europe Costs more for than the entire shop it feels like.

Yeah, why I don't have any merch. The shipping costs are... Not great, to put it lightly.
