Current Events > VTuber General 4: Of Streamers and Simps

(+) Yeah! (+)

Polka's 3D debut was fun, wonder if there's gonna be behind-the-scenes trivia for stuff like the elephant. Even Coco turning around on a chair required someone to manually turn her with her legs. I wonder when Hololive ID is supposed to get their 3D debuts, since ID 1st Gen was in between 4 and 5. Is there going to be any difficulty in getting the overseas girls into 3D? I don't recall if Haachama did any 3D while she was abroad in Australia either.

Doubt any girls not living in Japan will get 3D models for a bit with Covid, as think they have to come to cover's studio for it.

Correct. The ID girls will not get 3D models for that reason unfortunately.

Polka's model is pretty detailed compared to the others and those black panties man, I almost missed that mishap.

Coco actually got Sora to say motherfucker.

I dont care for Mario Kart, but I appreciate all the JP girls running multiple 2+ hour streams to practice up.

I have that same sentiment when it comes to Apex and Nijisanji.

Could you imagine a hololive rust server? What a shitshow that would be

---

I'm afraid to admit that I follow more than half of NijiKR and haven't watched any of them. They seem cool, seem to speak Korean and Japanese.

I think Nijisanji in general are looking for Japanese multilinguals for all their regions, even though there's now HoloEN as evidence that you hardly need to have the entire generation intermingled with the JP side.

It's just kind of a shame with tubers like Gura and Ame who seem kinda like "walled off" unable to do half the stuff that makes hololive special.

There will be more members of HoloEN in the future, most likely. Plus HoloIN and they could allow them to collab with VTubers from elsewhere.

I mean, the EN girls have a huge geography problem to deal with for off collabs. With most of the JP girls, they're only a train ride away and have the hololive studio for collab stuff/idol stuff, the EN girls, unless hololive sets up a streamer house for them to move to are kinda limited to your bog standard youtube streams.

Kiara is about to leave japan soon to go back to EU, so she'll be in an even worse position of isolation.

Seems Uto couldn't avoid some drama, but the scale is pretty small and there's a pretty good chance that Uto herself didn't do anything wrong. tl;dr is that an artist was publicly defaming Uto for blocking her after an ambiguous transaction after a commission, but ultimately Uto paid the full amount and then blocked the artist on Twitter.

We only have the artist's pov so there's obviously more to this story that she's conveniently leaving out. Also the artist gave the art without receiving payment, didn't ask for an amount initially, reached out 2 months later to basically say Uto owes her money. They didn't sign any contracts and there was only an informal agreement that an art would be provided. So as to why she's harassing Uto after actually being paid the amount that the artist herself asked for is a real mystery

But the scale of this is supposedly smaller than the post makes it out to be. There's just a small group of people trying to get Uto cancelled, so hopefully there's no confusion.

For the MK tourney, group A was a massacre Aqua got 1st every race and Kanata got 2nd, I dunno what they did for the 3 way tie

Group B was competitive where Pekora started strong but faltered later, Subaru was very consistent and got first, Luna squeaked by, Botan got destroyed lul

Group C should be insane... Suisei and Okayu are basically two of the 4 people expected to win the whole thing, and yesterday's MK session had Suisei and Okayu both place overall higher than Aqua in the 2nd round of games, where the 1st round was all Aqua with Suisei and Okayu 2nd and 3rd. So it's not a shoe-in for Aqua but Aqua is clearly the favorite to win. Group C has Suisei, Okayu, Towa, Matsuri, and even Marine showed that she was capable of winning a race with Aqua, Suisei, and Okayu in the same room lol. It's gonna be insanely competitive and a big upset is possible

Aqua is a monster

Sui-chan gets like 3rd or higher and I believe she secures 1st or a 1st tie at the worst

Sadly Towa-sama's monitor decided to act up, so she had to commentate a match and join back in

SHE TOOK IT, SUI-CHAN 1ST BY A SINGLE POINT!!!

Sui-chan in tears, currently receiving what I have to describe as a machinegun of superchats lol

All that practicing in GTA really paid off, eh?

Both true statements

They're just Kiminos but Towa actually looks amazing with this haistyle. She looks goofy with her twintails which fits her personality but damn, girl.

I mean, I think they finally realized they needed to give her an outfit befitting an angel.

You always gotta get commissions like this (and most other work obligations like these from strangers) in writing, especially since extorting Vtubers is a thing.

It's not an uncommon thing in general to pull this especially if you do it for a relative unknown who explodes in popularity, not just vtubers in particular though they seem very susceptible.

Dunno, I just prefer to stay out of this kinda stuff and carry on as normal because it's almost always impossible to know what is really going on.

Update on the Uto thing, the artist did indeed apologize and delete her Uto hate tweets. She admitted that she handled the commission process poorly. Alls well that ends well I suppose

She's doing some sort of fitness competition with herself for her bday stream


EDIT: Oh, it's an electric shock punishment workout

Me: Wow, Korone's BGM sounds totally like Fillmore from ActRaiser.

Korone: Not only does it sound like it, it was made by Yuzo Koshiro, the game's composer.

Me: Oh. Well then.

And to tell her how much he disliked her at first. She's got numerous like that in the past, and I remain baffled that people keep sending her 100's of their currency to do so. This one wasn't as bad as some she's got before at least >.>

I get they want to say how much they like her now but starting off with how bad they thought she was just seems so unneeded.
