VTuber Megathread

Recommended Posts

I don't watch much Vtubers since I would rather watch a real person streaming more than using an animated model.  Plus if I focus on Vtubers as their character design must "draw" interest with their looks in my eyes.

 

These Vtubers from Youtube/Twitch that I watch on occasion:

 

AyumiRisaCh

A.I.Games

When I joined Nene's stream and recognized the kanji on the right, I immediately said to myself "Don't let it be 'Tenshi ni fureta yo', please". But, of course, it was 'Tenshi ni fureta yo' and just like almost 10 years ago (Yes, the 2nd season of K-ON is that old), it immediately flipped a certain switch in my head, what caused my emotions to go highwire and had me fighting against the tears. And yes, this is my own video, and yes, I was emotionally more exhausted after finishing it than I'd like to admit. Still a fantastic song though (but I'm never going to sub it again, NEVER EVER).

 

Someone who has never watched K-ON probably can't understand all of this, but those who did probably get the same kind of feels as I did.

Also, Azu-nyan still best girl.

@Redgrave I can't wait to see the shenanigans Peko gets up to in Metal Gear Solid. ?

 

@Suminya As a K-ON! fanatic myself, that song always gets to me as well... ? It was a beautiful cover though! I think she did it justice. Nice work on the video btw. ?


While I'm here, I guess I'll share some recent Twitter clips that make me laugh.

I wanted to post something funny as well, but I'm not really in the mood anymore after reading this....

 

 

Here's the complete announcement

Quote

 

Announcement of Mano Aloe’s Graduation

 

Thank you for your continued support of hololive production.

 

We regret to announce that, due to personal reasons, 5th generation member Mano Aloe will be graduating from hololive on Monday, August 31, 2020.

 

We apologize for the misunderstandings caused last time due to the lack of a translated official announcement and the delay in adding subtitles to the apology stream. As such, we would like to explain the circumstances in more detail this time.

 

Mano Aloe debuted as part of hololive’s 5th generation on Saturday, August 15, 2020.

However, after signing the contract with COVER Corporation but prior to her official debut, Mano Aloe conducted a test live stream on the video streaming service TwitCasting, in which she used her then-unreleased Live2D model.

 

This stream recording was not deleted afterwards and remained available to the public. As a result, her model and the nature of her character were leaked prior to the debut of 5th generation.

 

COVER Corporation deemed this to be a breach of contract for disclosure of confidential information, and as such placed a two-week suspension on Mano Aloe, which began on Monday, August 17, 2020.

 

Upon further discussion, however, Mano Aloe decided that she was not physically or mentally prepared to continue with her activities. In accordance with her wishes, we have decided that the best course of action would be to allow her to graduate from the group. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors.

 

We would like to thank all the fans and everyone involved in their support for Mano Aloe despite her short tenure. We apologize for the confusion and concerns that have resulted in relation to this incident. We sincerely hope that you will continue to support our company and our talents in the future.

 

Monday, August 31, 2020
COVER Corporation
CEO: Tanigo Motoaki

 

 

Dear 2020, please stop giving me bad news. Thank you.

I was randomly browsing YouTube the other day when suddenly, what is probably the most wholesome Vtuber content got suggested to me. It's a cover with 24 members of the Hololive Vtubers. Some of you have probably already seen it, but in case you haven't, here it is. If this doesn't reach out to you, then whoa... I thought it was super sweet. ^^

 

 

Additionally, I really like this clip of Fubuki creating a somewhat hard stage in Super Mario Maker 2 and then seeing the reactions of the rest of the group as they attempt to beat the stage, with varying degrees of success and frustration.

 

 

Obligatory Nyanners-related content. It's been a while since she last uploaded the cover of a song, but I can see she's a very good singer regardless. This song is very honest of her to be fair, it really describes how "clean" and "pure" she is. :P

 

 

Two days later, she then uploads this. ?

 

 

No kidding. I can see myself having a similar reaction to hers. xD

What a lewd kitty. x3

Pekora Stands Proud and plays the classic JJBA fighting game only to get walled by Hol Horse himself. It's too bad she didn't fight Hol Horse with Boingo so she could get grabbed by him putting his fingers up her nose :P

Thanks for that tweet @Redgrave.

I had almost forgotten how it feels like to smile, since I haven't been able to smile a single time (or at least feel any kind of positive emotion) since the announcement of Aloe's graduation. That shit hit me way harder than I thought it would. And despite feeling incredibly dead inside, I still somehow managed to finish subbing the only full song we ever got from her. I'm not sure if my color choice for the subtitles was a great choice, but it somehow felt right while working on it. I probably should have made the subtitles slightly larger though.

 

 

And since @Redgrave made me feel a bit better, here's something for you. I hope you will like it.

Glad I could help you feel better @Suminya ☺️ I think the subtitles are the right size and the colors are fine too, so no worries. And thanks for the Pekora video ? It's nice to get a reminder that she has a really good singing voice when she's not doing funny screams. And speaking of, I saw this too ?

I'm actually pretty excited to see these English-speaking Hololive vtubers. I have my doubts they're going to be as good as the Japanese ones when it comes to their personality, but that's based off how toxic a lot of the current English-speaking vtubers are at the moment. I'm hoping the "officialness" of being attached to Hololive means they won't be garbage. ?

 

I should note that not all current English-speaking vtubers have bad personalities. I'd be all for these new Hololive vtubers if they were similar to Kana-chan. She's a cutie. ?

I figured Pikamee was a good balance between English and Japanese but it's nice to see they want to try and branch out for overseas fans. Gawr Gura seems right up my alley with the shark themed stuff so I'll definitely check her out :P

One of the most adorable clips I've ever seen. ?

 

 
If it doesn't load for whatever reason, this is the link: https://twitter.com/Alphabeticalxd/status/1303775031160442881
 
As for the English-speaking Hololive vtubers, the early favourites seem to be Ninomae Ina'nis and Gawr Gura. Those are the two I've seen the most fan art for anyway. ? Just based on design, I really like the shark girl, but they're all good. I'm looking forward to actually hearing them speak. It's pretty sweet to see the Japanese vtubers welcome the English ones. I saw Polka even sung Reach Out To The Truth for them. ?

 

 

This makes me chuckle. ?

I wasn't able to watch the streams for the introduction of the girls before Gawr but Gawr won me over real fast :P The moments where she was peeking from behind the image of Amelia and her singing were my favorite parts, especially the moment at 2:40 in the video ?

Amelia Watson was also a lot more high energy than I was expecting, especially with the "Watson Concoction" bit that had me laughing ? I look forward to seeing what they will do later on and I hope Watson plays L.A. Noire at some point :P

 

For the other girls I skimmed through their VODs but I look forward to seeing what they will do too. Ninomae's art looks really good so I can't wait to see what else she makes. ☺️

Hololive English has exceeded all my expectations. I've watched all of the debut streams from start to finish and I'm really impressed! They were all lovable in their own way. It's very difficult for me to pick a favourite, but if I had to, I'd probably go with Watson Amelia right now because of how full of energy and enthusiastic she was. I certainly wasn't expecting things to go in the direction they did thanks to the "Watson Concoction". ? Very entertaining stream. Plus, she's British, so I'm obligated to support her. ?

 

The two "runners up" for me have to be Mori Calliope and Gawr Gura. Mori Calliope left a great first impression. I loved her personality. She can be a bit on he vulgar side sometimes, but you can tell she's actually really sweet. ? Oh, and her song was amazing! I've listened to it probably a dozen times already. ?

 

 

Gawr Gura was undoubtedly the cutest of the bunch. Her stream was really funny. Like @Redgrave pointed out, she's a very good singer as well. ❤️

Ninomae Ina’nis' stream was pretty chill and wholesome despite her looking like some Cthulhu monster (she's actually human though). ? Really talented artist. What an amazing-looking end screen!

And finally we have Takanashi Kiara. She didn't really grab me as much as the others did, but her stream wasn't bad by any means. Probably had the best taste in video games and anime out of all the girls. I like how much respect and admiration she has for Pekora and it was funny seeing Kiara's reaction when she started posting in chat. 

 

I'm looking forward to checking out everyone's future streams!

Imagine showing your YT analytics on stream and getting suspended for it, just because someone in China didn't like to see Taiwan listed as an independent country.

Yeah it's really dumb they got suspended over that and I wish they didn't. However I see people trying to post stuff about Taiwan in other chats which is an incredibly stupid idea. Like I get the sentiment since I think the Chinese government sucks ass too but doing that is just going to get those that aren't involved caught in the crossfire and I would hate to see more get suspended or banned because of it.
