Funny / hololive

Stand back, I've got a sheep!

Hololive is less of an idol agency... and more of an entertainment agency.

Spoilers Off as per wiki policy. Beware of spoilers for any IPs (e.g. games) that get streamed on hololive channels.

AsaCoco (Morning Coco)

• Coco says she can't stream the news in English, and shows a video example as explanation. The first words out of her mouth are "Good morning, motherfuckers!" and it only goes downhill from there.
• The show in general tends to really push the boundaries as to what is allowed by Youtube and Hololive itself, and due to unknown reasons Coco received a temporary ban to livestreaming. Her first video after being banned has a very prominent image saying she was banned, along with two middle fingers next to the Youtube logo. She also tweeted out this video, showcasing a Cluster F-Bomb (as well as fanart of her flipping her audience off and a clip from her laser hair removal stream) as one of the many possible reasons she got banned.
• Coco covers a Tweet from her genmate Kanata with a picture depicting the whole generation enjoying themselves. However, Coco shows that this image isn't as precious as it seems due to the actual height of all the members involved. For her to be at shoulder-height with her shorter genmates, Coco illustrates herself in a "cursed squat", with Luna seated on her thigh.
• Kiryu Coco's news coverage of Watame's (at the time) bad internet, with the highlight being Watame giving her infamous apology live... only to get cut off by the internet buffer before she could say "Is not at fault here, right?" leaving Coco speechless.
• The first advertisement for Instant AsaCoco (in liquid, gaseous form, or injections), is comedy gold. You can hear Watame blatantly trying not to laugh near the end.
  Watame: Ah, I can feel it! I can feel your crappy jokes directly to my brain!
  Coco: (high dragon noises)
• Stimulant-Type AsaCoco, which is just straight up cocaine. Before Watame can finish saying the product name, she's cut off by a police siren, implying that she and Coco got arrested.
  PSA: Never, ever do drugs. Cheating is prohibited. —Angel Police (with a portrait of Kanata with a police uniform edited over her)
• Coco's reacts to an "artists depiction" of Watame's "Helmet". The long Beat and her simultaneous loss of composure are what really sell it.
• On May 5th, Coco had released a prerecorded episode of Asacoco (due to her stream ban still being in effect) used it as an opportunity to promote auditions for the English language branch of Hololive. The entire sequence started out with Coco Kaine, a character of her own creation, telling viewers to shut up and watch the advertisement, which she had done in the style of Tim and Eric's "free house" skit.
• After the hiatus ended, the show has been reformatted to incorporate a bit of her other project, the Shitpost Review, as part of a "Daily Meme" segment along with providing news around hololive's antics. Due to this crossover, she started also carrying over some jokes, the prime example being September 23's "daily meme" being a rendition of the "jealous girlfriend" with a shirtless YAGOO being the target, something she had encouraged on her other show for her audience to make. She never expected anyone to follow through on creating "YAGOO lewds," but her audience immediately urged her to take responsibility and told her that this was her cross to bear.
• Coco brought up Luna's English-only stream, with a joke stating that neither overseas nor Japanese fans could understand her due to her accent. Luna was not happy.
  Luna: ...NNNAAAAAAAAAA!!! To all the overseas viewers... looks like my English is too "native" for you to understand nanora... Why the fuck don't you understand nanora? (in English) If you don't understand... hope you understand... THIS!!! THEN!!!
• Coco announced her return to activity with another Asacoco episode on October 19th, and it was a fantastic demonstration that her 3-week hiatus had little impact on her ability to entertain.
  • She kicks it off with the usual fare: "GET THE FUCK OUT OF YOUR BEDS, MOTHERFUCKERS!"
  • Special mention goes to the increasingly shoddy censor bars as the segment advanced.
  • Unique to this episode is a fake ad for Asacoco University, featuring Fubuki as a PhD graduate. It also goes with a statue of Coco posing like The Thinker while using a toilet.
  • Behind her avatar is a looping fake chat scroll filled with in-jokes. After her Asacoco ad segment, she noticed that the actual chat was flooding with non-stop superchats trying to "purchase" it, and reflects it by speeding up the fake scroll until it blows up. Twice!
  • She ends the stream with an artwork with the words "Don't forget to subscribe if you loved it. If you hated it... FUCK U and never come back" right next to an adorable Coco wearing a dragon costume. It's as if Coco is self-aware about her previous situation and is as foul-mouthed as ever.
• On 9th of November's edition, it turns out Coco had caught up with a certain Youtuber by the name of 'Platinumknight' that had been requesting videos of some of the Holo-EN cast from Big Man Tyrone. She featured the videos during the show and did fairly well at keeping her composure till Kiara's video upon which she almost completely fell apart. The moment the chat saw Platinum's channel name, they went absolutely giddy with anticipation.
• In the middle of her anniversary stream, Coco throws in an unofficial Asacoco episode, where among other things she advertises new merchandise — an 80cm long plushie of her tail. Coco delves a little into its development history: the first prototype had an actual rubber tip and she had to explain that it's not supposed to be used like a buttplug. So the next prototype had a plush nib... but now it's also flesh-colored. Coco deliberately adds a mosaic to this to show how indecent it looked. The final product has a grey, plush nib like she intended.

Ame in the A.M./Watson Weekly

• Amelia Watson started her own successor to AsaCoco, and it's just as wacky.
  • Amelia starts with a report on a public display of affection between Miko and Haachama, and notes that Miko's got a thing for blonde girls. She calls in an anonymous witness whose silhouette is pretty much her alternate costume. When the "witness" begs to receive a kiss from Miko, she makes no effort to hide her lips moving as the "witness" speaks. Miko herself gets informed of this, and her first reaction (after getting over the shock) is to mourn her lost opportunity to romance Amelia — but the viewers quickly reassure her that "she can still go for the harem route".
  • The first commercial break features "Tako Eats", a food delivery service run by Ina. Ame gets a delivery that was ordered by Smol Ame (much to her annoyance). She opens the bag and gets taken by an Old One.
    Tako Eats: We deliver anything from food to bleeeeep
  • A second commercial advertises the new formula of Watson Concoction. She gave Gura a dose and she started to trip, with Ame noting she might change size. Kiara comes in and asks for one too. She gets it, and doesn't feel anything at first, only to change into a recolored Minecraft chicken. Then Gura starts growing and everything goes chaotic.
  • The weather is delivered by Smol Ame, with a "Hololive Globe" that replaces the regular continents with appropriately shaped ones for each streamer, and depicts each streaming trend as weather phenomena.
• The August 29th, 2021 broadcast:
  • When talking about Gura and Shion's engagement, the chat starts going "NTR!" Ame immeditely shoots that down.
  • She talks about "Amane Kanada", Kanata's counterpart from Generation 104. Which also takes place in a timeline where Marine is 80 and Yagoo no longer runs Cover Corp. Instead it's his son Yagoo Jr. Ame immediately says she "made that up".
  • The first commercial has Ollie walk in Ame's office, looking for a chess opponent. Ame has Sana's orb that lets her see the future. They look into it and find Ollie beating Smol Ame at chess (and she flips the table in response). Just as Amelia tries to invalidate Ollie's future victory, Sana comes crashing into the office without her size limiter, forcing the two to evacuate in a panic.
  • The whole broadcast got hit with the EN Curse as some videos didn't play sound. One about Aki being a cat toy was cut off, and Amelia vowed to fire her news team. Then she tried to play the second commercial only for the sound to not work.
  • The second commercial (when it finally worked) has Amelia offer the viewers a free sample of Watson Concoction. This time, it starts off tame, treating the viewer to Minecraft scenery, but it slowly gets weirder as it gets populated by Smol Ame bees, and ends in a Smol Ame rocket jetting constantly into the sky. The ad ends on a sped-up reading of its side effects, courtesy of Calli.
  • The technical difficulty screen has Smol Ame pulling the plug out of the wall, which is perfectly in character for her.
  • She reveals that Hololive now has a second rapping idol with Nene-G. We then get to hear her hot new track. It's just Nene saying "That is wiggity wiggity-whack, G." (in English)
  • During Smol Ame's weather report, she discusses the influx of the Jack-O pose. She tries to do it herself but is unable, so she draws a (very crude) rendition of it. With sunglases.

General gaming moments

• Sometimes a member establishes a Self-Imposed Challenge, with the penalty of terminating the stream if they fail it. This occasionally results in very short streams.
  • Regis Altare, the "reformed toxic gamer", revisits his roots, and plays League of Legends until he loses a match. Long story short, he now holds the record for the shortest Tempus stream.
• In various members' Tetris 99 streams, YAGOO (or someone pretending to be YAGOO anyway) signed on and kept intentionally losing immediately after the streamer, just so they'd see his name one or two spaces above theirs in the results screen. Many fans declared this YAGOO's revenge for the hololive girls raising his blood pressure.
• Grand Theft Auto V:
  • Whenever anyone gets to the ending cutscene of "Franklin and Lamar", they will inevitably attempt to harmonize with Lamar Davis when he drops the N-word at the end of his rant; it's become so commonplace that anyone who plays the game and repeats Lamar is said to be automatically given N-Word Privileges. It's more notable for the ones that have experienced the scene and have not repeated Lamar: Moona, who knows enough English to figure out what the word means and didn't want to say it for fear of offending her audience, Roboco, who has seen the scene from Miko before and is wise enough to not explicitly say it (she did say "nibba", however), Aqua Kanata, and Noel, who weren't paying attention at all to the scene (with special mention to Noel, who was actively paying attention in order to avoid it), Flare, who said "Noooo!" with a tune, and Suisei, who just laughed. While Miko did avoid saying the N-word in her second playthrough of this mission, she ended up muttering it anyway during "The Long Stretch". HoloEN's Amelia and Gura, both of whom are native English speakers, put a self aware spin on this, with Amelia harmonizing the word "Nickel", and Gura saying "N...n...Nya!"
  • As their attempts of completing the driving part of the same mission can attest to, their driving skills are left to be desired. While somewhat justifiable to the difficulty to adapting with the left-hand driving system where the game is set and struggling to adapt with the driving controls, expect them to run over civilians and crash into cars and walls all the time before even reaching their destination. Temma initially subverted this during his first hours of the game, driving slowly and obeying the traffic rules, only then to start speeding past red lights and crashing into things later on and at one point, parked his car in a handicap parking spot. Meanwhile, Suisei does this deliberately as she pretends that, to her, the civilians are like the gold coins in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Talk about Insane Troll Logic.
  • Whenever they come accross the game's sexual content (i.e. the antivirus clicking section from "Friend Request"), expect them to have a Freak Out and hastily attempt to cover it up with their avatar or something else. For those who had completed "The Jewel Store Job" however, chances are they'll accidentally wander into Vanilla Unicorn's "premium longue" without knowing what it is... and realized just too late as the private dance scene starts. Poor Miko, Haato, and Kanata all learned this the hard way. To add insult to injury, following "The Jewel Store Job" is "Mr. Philips", which begins with a cutscene of Trevor explicitly making love, pants down and all.
• Both Suisei and Luna have individually played Muse Dash's resident creepy song, もぺもぺ　(MopeMope), and their reactions couldn't be any more different. Suisei ends up freaking out for the remainder of the song after the creep factor kicks in, while Luna continues making random noises along with the notes as if nothing's happening.
• This compilation of various members playing an indie horror game Convenience Store displays all of them reacting to the exact same jumpscare of the store manager (sometimes jokingly referred to as YAGOO by fans) surprising them as they walk into the locker room during a rainy night. Aside from Sora, nearly all the girls are some level of terrified by this, to the point of cursing him out as soon as they see him pop up or flailing about so much that they end up knocking things over. It seems not even the EN branch is immune to this jumpscare, either.
• Undertale:
  • Reactions to the opening attack of the Genocide route final boss is always funny, and the girls are no exception as This video shows. Some highlights would be Rushia going "I burned in hell" at the game over screen and Matsuri somehow surviving by dumb luck.
  • While reactions to finally defeating Undyne the Undying generally involve a mixture of emotions like relief or guilt, this compilation shows that the mixture can also include apprehension, as several members are a little fearful that Undyne would get back up for a last ditch attack and their last sliver of HP wouldn't hold out.
• When Kuukiyomi 3 came out in March 2021, many of the hololive girls played it. Some of the situations they were forced to "read the air" in were somewhat risqué, and their reactions to those were priceless. Some of the other girls, in their playthroughs, decide to take the inconsiderate choice at every opportunity just because they could.
  • When confronted with an unexpected ad showing lions mating, some of them click on the ad itself rather than the skip button, and get taken to a lioness dating site. Some of them mistake the ad to be the "interesting video". Botan, in particular, goes "I like the one on the right..." If you're sharp-eyed, the video that plays after the ad is the In-Universe Virtual Celebrity playing Kuukiyomi, so we have VTubers playing Kuukiyomi while reacting to a video of a VTuber playing Kuukiyomi.
  • One of the scenarios features a Virtual Celebrity whose rigging glitches out revealing an old man behind the curtain. Some of the girls are too shocked to look away, while others quickly smash the screen. Some of them, Sora included, turn the character to directly face the viewer, and tell the audience to act like they saw nothing.
  • One of the situations involves the player as a girlfriend on a date, against a "test your strength" machine. Korone doesn't let herself get shown up by the boyfriend, and punches it at maximum power, breaking the machine. What's even more amusing is that she's known to box as a hobby and thus could do the same in real life! Okayu on the other hand discovers she can move sideways and proceeds to punch the boyfriend instead.
• Several of the talents, both on hololive and holostars, began playing Monster Hunter: Rise at launch. While most of the thumbnails befit the game they look forward to, others are... different. Temma's thumbnail is a crude sketch of him fighting one of the monsters, while Ina's swaps her face with Joey's creepy chin.
• A number of Hololive's members have streamed Resident Evil Village and all of them have noticed that Donna Beneviento's Creepy Doll, Angie, sounds just like Marine. When Marine hears it for herself in the Oneesangumi's second stream of the game, she denies any resemblance and claims that it actually sounds like Ollie all the while doing some eerily spot-on impressions. The fact that she has an Elegant Gothic Lolita skin akin to Rozen Maiden doesn't help matters. She finally relents when she sees Subaru encounters the doll in her own stream.
  [In Subaru's stream]
  Subaru: (After stabbing Angie the first time) "Senchou... So this is what has become of you..."
  [In Noel's stream]
  Marine: "Apparently, Subaru-senpai just found out that Angie sounds like me."
  Noel: "I guess everyone can notice that."
  Marine: (As Angie) "Yo, Subaru-senpai! ARE YOU SCARED?!"
  • This video compares how the different talents solve the piano puzzle. Most of them work out the sheet music and play it, with Miko and Botan notably exhibiting more proficiency at reading it. Noel, on the other hand, blindly presses a key, realizes that the game displays the note she just played, and brute-forces the puzzle.
• The Henry Stickmin Collection:
  • When a wrong option is chosen and gets a FAIL, expect them to be hyped by the choice they picked before interrupting themselves halfway through and laugh at Henry's misfortune.
  • Many have found Charles' antics throughout Infiltrating the Airship onwards amusing because of how absurd his methods of assistance are.
  • One particular option in the "Grappling Gun" route in Airship involves Henry getting on a computer to access the Toppat Clan's secret files... and gets sidetracked by Civilization V, getting himself caught after playing for so long. Many talents, mainly from the Japanese side, noticed this and amusingly lampshades the addictive nature of Civilization in order to get such a FAIL. Miko, on the other hand, somehow mistook the game for Grand Theft Auto V due to its similar desktop logos.
  • When the option comes up, it's likely for the talents to get "distracted" by the "Distraction" FAIL from Fleeing the Complex (with the exception of Marine, who ignored the option, and Roberu, who calls Henry, Ellie, and the two guards "idiots" instead) and, for those who achieved the Triple Threat ending, the "Diversion" option from Completing the Mission. Some even get irritated over the game's instant interruption of the "Dance-Off" options in Mission.
  • The "Spirit Forme" sequence is what happens when those fluent in Japanese meet its intentionally broken Japanese dubbing. Every time, the talents take a moment to realize that the sequence is dubbed in "Japanese". Marine, in particular, has a blast with the JoJo reference and thoroughly enjoys how scuffed it is. She notes that the wonky dub is how the Western viewers perceive her Maringlish.
  • When Miko gets presented with a "rock paper scissors" option against the Right Hand Man in one of the Mission routes, she thinks it refers to Tsunomaki Janken, Watame's personal minigame which she has a terrible win-loss record at. Naturally, when Right Hand Man doesn't play along and gives Henry a face full of laser, Miko laments yet another loss.
• Some of the talents (Pekora, Okayu, Miko, and Roboco) have played and reached the alternate ending of Tsugu No Hi Evil God Korone and their reaction is priceless when they learn of Korone's in-game arrest. It gets better as they all start chanting along to the "Korone brainwashing song", and they're left in stitches when the police interrupt her with a neck-bending blow.
  • Naturally, Korone is the first to showcase the game (but doesn't reach the alternate ending, since it's a preview before its launch date). Her reactions are a mixture of genuine fright and amusement, especially when the game uses the cartoonish designs of the Koronesuki to creepy effect.
  • In early November, Korone announced a 2-week hiatus for health reasons (which then later turned into an entire month). Given that this came shortly after several hololive members played and showcased that Tsugu no Hi ending, it's inevitable that some would joke that the "real" reason is that she's "arrested for brainwashing". This became a Brick Joke once Korone concluded her hiatus — her return stream frames her as being imprisoned as an aftermath of that ending, even though she didn't get that ending herself. She breaks herself out of her cell... and then gets immediately arrested again.
  • Sana's playthrough of the game has her reach the arrested ending first after accidentally discovering that you can continue walking left at the dialogue choice. When she goes for a second playthrough to see the brainwashed ending, she notices that her designer, Pako, has changed his icon to feature Yatagarasu as a Koronesuki, and several of the chat follow suit by changing their display pics to that same image. When she descends further into madness, she changes her avatar to a Sana-styled Koronesuki to fit the occasion.
  • During Baelz's playthrough, the odd spacing of the ramen shop sign makes her read it as "The people's dis hes". It takes her a while to realize her mistake. Baelz also gets mistaken on what a lobotomy is, revealing a graphic understanding about the procedure, and she has to be corrected by chat (and Mumei).
    Baelz: 'What was lobotomy again' — It's where you get the thing and you put it in the eyeball and then you go 'wachow!'
• In early February 2022, several talents played NEEDY STREAMER OVERLOAD. Between each stream, a common observation is for chat to notice that the in-game chat is a remarkably spot-on imitation of real life. The chat will then proceed to mimic the in-game chat, ending each of her in-game streams with a flurry of "BLESS" and also sending superchats to match the in-game superchats seen. See the individual talents' pages for unique moments.
• Several talents play Elden Ring, and after clearing the tutorial they meet Varre, who calls their character "maidenless". The general reaction is to not take too kindly to being sassed. Of note is Gura, who attacks Varre for his insult, and dies multiple times in the ensuing duel before finally emerging victorious. Calli couldn't help but laugh upon hearing of this.
  • A few talents leave messages of their own, leading to players flocking in search of that message to appraise it, giving them free healing. Ina gets overwhelmed with how often she's healed and erases her message so that she can continue to experience a challenge. In contrast, Amelia berates and threatens the Teamates if they fail to heal her in tense moments.
• The reactions to Mumei's "True Horror" special in HoloCure, which flashes Mumei's infamous "cursed" portrait before obliterating all non-boss enemies. For many hololive members, such as Pekora and FuwaMoco, this was their first exposure to Mumei's particular brand of art.
  Pekora: "Horrifying!"
  Mococo: "RUFFIANS!!"
  • General reactions to seeing their fandom mascots in the game range between Squeeing at their appearance and roasting their audience. Miko in particular is extremely excited to finally see the 35P, and then a few seconds later she's gleefully roasting them with her special.
• The common reaction when fighting Iono in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is annoyance at Iono's streamer mannerisms and at the chat cheering for Iono instead of the holomember.
  • Pekora immediately sees Iono as a rival and lambasts the Nousagis for not rooting for her when she imitates Iono's midfight psych up.
  • Korone berates her fans for sending superchats in Iono's name, reminding that they will end up in Korone's pockets and not Iono's.
    Korone: [After beating Iono] I just crushed your oshi.
  • Nene is dismayed to find that the new uptick in subscribers is solely to root for Iono.
  • Moona throws a high-pitched tantrum when realizing that the Moonafics have betrayed her for Iono.
  • Kronii does an impression in Iono-ese and attempts to turn Iono's "fans" into her own.
  • IRyS immediately assumes Iono is a VTuber and is salty at her chat's mass rebellion.
    IRyS: "Thanks for cheerin' me on anywho, my loyal fans!" ... Yeah, so much for being loyal to me, you guys.
  • Bae is mistaken as Iono's real voice and goes along with the joke while promising to whoop the latter's butt.
    Bae: "This is Iono's stream now."? How dare you!
• Holo X Break:
  • Holo ID members getting a kick out of NPC Kaela's voice, which is significantly higher and more cutesy than how she normally speaks. Zeta even mimics Kaela's voice when she chooses the "Talk" option to show the disparity between the two voices. Kaela herself claims that the NPC is an imposter.
    NPC Kaela: Good to see you again!
    Ollie: What do you think?
    Reine: [Beat] ...who's this? [Both laugh]
  • In stage 3, Ollie's head can be found on the ground and used as a weapon, which the holomems naturally get a kick out of. However, players can also return her head to her body in the next screen for extra coins, which makes the members who fail do so feel silly. Jurard, in particular, feels pretty bad about this when he realizes it, and tries to get himself killed to get a second chance at it. He realizes too late that the screen with her body running around is the stage's checkpoint, preventing him from undoing his mistake.
    Jurard: [Ollie's head breaks] We killed her. Hey, she's trying to help me! As long as she's trying to help her kohai, that's what matters!
    [enters the next screen and sees Ollie's headless body flailing around]
    Jurard: NOOOOOOOOOO!

UMISEA Shorts

• Starting September 2021, hololive introduced Team UMISEA, consisting of the four aquatic theme members at the time (Marine, Aqua, Gura, and Ina). To celebrate this, they released multiple animated shorts.
• Episode 1 ends with Gura accidentally blowing Marine's ship up.
• Episode 2 has them stranded on a desert island. When they try to find water, Marine asks if Aqua "has to go" (implying that she's willing to drink urine).
• Episode 3 has them find a deep sea temple, only for a mysterious horror to take them all away. The horror was actually Ina, who took them back to shore because that temple held her embarrassing old artwork.

Miscellaneous/Unsorted

• This compilation from the official channel illustrating the evolution of the Vtubers over time, from generic "sweet and pure" idols into what we have today:
  • Some of the most striking examples feature Rushia and Miko, whose "after" comparison highlights paint them as stark raving mad.
    Rushia (before): All of you Fandead will protect me, right?
    Rushia (after): Log in already, will you!? COME ON!! (starts angrily banging on her table repeatedly)
    Miko (before): ...and my dream is to become an idol!
    Miko (after): FUCKING CASINO! (shoots rockets at said casino)
  • On the other hand, while Korone has certainly changed throughout her time in hololive, the video shows that she's been...interesting since day one.
    Korone (before):(stares with creepy BGM in the distance)
    Korone (after): (Playing Rock-Paper-Scissors against someone with a Kadomatsu on her head)
• For every VTuber she interviews, in or out of hololive, Choco gives them a standardized quiz where they have to answer as many questions as they can within 3 minutes. Some get a rather low score, some get a rather high score, some come very close to answering all the questions correctly, and some barely get even a single answer right:
  • Aqua scores a grand total of 1 point, leading fans to joke that she's the unit of measurement of intelligence. Each time she gives a wrong answer, Choco gets increasingly exasperated, before heaving a large sigh of relief as Aqua finally gets one question right just as time runs out.
  • When she's about to quiz Botan, Botan starts with asking about the performance of her gen-mates, and then asks if she should take this seriously or intentionally give silly answers. Choco immediately tells Botan to respond seriously, with hopes that Botan would help raise the average score of hololive.
  • Kiara's attempt at the quiz is an uphill battle because this quiz involves a lot of Japanese cultural knowledge and terminology that one hardly uses when Japanese is not their first language. Despite this, she outdoes Aqua with a score of 2.
• Kanata's Imitation Game started off as an impromptu prank on Aqua, where she, Marine, Matsuri and Fubuki all got in a call together to imitate Marine (with Marine doing a bad imitation of herself) in order to trick Aqua and have her guess which Marine is the real one. After this, Kanata and A-chan turned it into a game to figure out who the real Marine was at a later date, with independent vtuber Natori Sana replacing Matsuri. This all culminated with the last imitation game (to date): Kanata impersonating Coco, Coco impersonating Kanata impersonating herself, and artist/independent vtuber Ui Shigure (Subaru's close friend and character artist) impersonating Watame impersonating herself. The last one is especially ironic considering one of the people they called was Subaru herself, and she couldn't identify her own artist's voice.
• In celebration of her 2 year anniversary, Roberu and Matsuri held a collaboration on Roberu's channel. At one point, Matsuri demanded that Roberu get her a gift. When asked specifically what she wanted, her response was an older brother. She then went on to describe him in a way that wouldn't be out of place in an eroge. What follows is a classic example of a Boke and Tsukkomi Routine, showcasing both of their comedic talent and ability to play off each other.
  Matsuri: Of course (my older brother) is not real. That's why I'm asking for one. Do you want the job?
  Roberu: (audible coughing)
  • The moment just after that was golden as well:
    Matsuri: I Wouldn't want to bathe with you, though. That's gross.
    Roberu: (recovering from the previous statement) I SURE AS HELL HOPE NOT!
• During Rikka's 3D debut, all members of holostars sent a short message to congratulate him for getting his model. These messages range from being impressed with Rikka's model to looking forward for his future 3D streams...and then there's Arurandeisu, who instead opts to make a parody of Evangelion's infamous "congratulations!" scene, complete with a knock-off version of the main theme.
• Compared to their Japanese branch, the MV for hololive ID 1st gen's cover of Ochame Kinou slips some cheeky trivia and Stealth Insults directed to all three members.
  Iofi: "An art student."
  Moona: "Poker-faced idol."
  Risu: "Picked up from the streets."
  • Hololive ID 2nd gen's cover is no slouch either:
    Ollie: "Her house is a ramen shop."
    Anya: "Ritual incarnate."
    Reine: "Magic exam student."
• This UNO game among Subaru, Suisei, Fubuki and Haato had made them sound like monkeys.
• Between a new generation's announcement and their debut videos, new talents would create their accounts on Twitter to engage the audience. Aloe's Twitter account got temporarily frozen due to unknown circumstances — many suspect she listed her account's birth date as her debut date, leading to Twitter freezing the account due to it being "underage". Shien Kageyama of holostars was guilty of this mistake for his debut, and was surprised that Aloe's account got frozen faster than his.
• After moving out to a new apartement complex with Kanata, Coco decided to buy a cooking pot online to cook some pork miso soup. What Coco wasn't aware of, is that the pot she bought was massive, even dwarfing out the Kanata standee she has for scale. The pair joked on how the pot could cook enough soup for almost the entirety of hololive, and how the pot is so big, Kanata can fit inside it and Coco can mutilate someone and hide the body parts there. When Coco went out to get the pot, viewers are treated to the sounds of the pot scraping against the floor as she presented it to Kanata.
• After Hololive EN all got Superchats enabled on the same day, their respective audiences took their jokes and ran with it:
  • One fan sending money to Calli to apologize for disturbing her streams, as well as sending a message of encouragement, under the name "Noisy Neighborhood Ghostrider."
  • Someone sending her the first few lines of Bee Movie got Calli to stop reading for a few seconds just to laugh at the absurdity of the attempt; despite the character limit, she called the donor a legend for doing so.
  • Kiara's donations being flooded with fast food orders (as well as what the speculated prices of said orders would be) that ranged from things taken from the menu she had designed in a previous stream to Big Smoke's order and Bubble Bass' order.
  • Gura's messages being mostly comprised of just "a".
  • Amelia decided to start the stream by making it rain before singing the opening lines from ''Here Comes The Money''. This resulted in her viewers erupting into references to Knack since she had stated in a Q&A stream that her sense of humor was influenced by videogamedunkey.
• During Gura's first Q&A stream Matsuri unexpectedly popped into the chat to tell Gura that she loves her and even donated a Super Chat. Under normal circumstances this would be seen as something heartwarming but given that this is Matsuri we're talking about... It was not helped by Matsuri then telling Gura "you my wife". Cue the chat exploding in pleas for Gura to either run or for someone to call the FBI while Matsuri's declaration left Gura herself flustered and confused. Matters only improve as Fubuki went on to claim Gura as her wife on Twitter.
• Marine decides to join reddit as one of /r/hololive's moderators, like several of the other girls have done. Except that her user name is "HoushouMarineLEGIT". Her profile was immediately flagged as "18+", due to her banner being a picture of her in a bikini looking flirtatious, and her avatar being a close up of her stomach. She also included the following introduction: "Based, super-lit, dope, beautiful young girl (NOT BOOMER), I don't have a pirate ship, but I have the pirate spirit super lit!! (lmao)". The few posts she made would also qualify for a number of reasons, including being marked Not Safe for Work as a general thing.
  • During Calli's 【英会話カフェ】LET'S PRACTICE ENGLISH, SLOWLY! :} stream, she revealed that she was the one who taught her the slang, and that Marine had specifically approached her for help. Meaning that Marine, who tries her hardest to appear young and has been jokingly nicknamed a Boomer by the English fans, decided the best person to ask for help was the girl who has also been called a Boomer by the English fanbase.
• While Amelia needing to renovate and restate the rules on her channel is not exactly amusing (chat had been heavily misbehaving and backseating during an earlier Witcher stream), she managed to insert some humor in it.
  "No Backseating: I like to play games my own way: mostly by learning through experience and being wrong. Sometimes, I will ask for help and even then, I may choose not to take your advice. Launch the game yourself if you want to see it played your way or at least pay money to yell at me (」ﾟﾛﾟ)｣$$$"
• One Luna fan (Or Luknight) took a 3D Poster of Luna with them to buy a Nvidia 3070 at Micro Center following a wager. They took photos of Luna around the store, including being next to a stand of Shaq, had a video of it but to top it all off Luna herself tweeted in reply to it insisting that JP LuKnights will do the same!
• For Halloween 2020, the Hololive members released a number of new songs and covers, including spooky party tunes, dramatic songs... and Surprise Paradise, a cover of Jingle Bells. That was Polka's idea, because after all, what better way to get into the "surprise" spirit than to release it on the completely wrong holiday?
• On 14 November 2020, Trash Taste had an episode featuring Calliope. To help guide Connor to the kind of content he seeks, Calliope recommended he watch Amelia's stream, citing her as the "toxic gamer type". True enough, Connor drops a superchat into one of her streams, starting his entry into the Hololive fandom. Amelia mispronounces his name and tries to fake a British accent, and "Cannur" got quickly adopted by the audience as another nickname for him.
  CDawgVA (Connor, in the YouTube comments): How are you guys so fast wtf this was like 4 hours ago
• After the debut of the English branch, Haachama was slightly hurt that she's lost her niche of being one of the members who's most fluent in English. Since her collabs with the English branch she's also jokingly plotted infiltrating them and staging a takeover. Cut to mid-November 2020 when Coco jokingly tweeted of her and Haachama being "Hololive EN 0th Gen".
• A fanmade remix turns Amelia's ASMR reading of Fox in Socks into a rap. In the comments, Calliope is mourning the loss of her "throne" of being the best rapper in Hololive. Calliope's occasionally received requests to rap Fox In Socks since then, and she's declined it each time saying that she can't outdo this.
• Fubuki and Aruran made a song together about Italian food. As in, almost every word of the song is the name of a type of Italian food, or telling people to eat it. It must be seen to be believed.
• ID Gen 2 barely got announced and within mere hours were getting welcomed into the meme filled world of the community. Even their Senpais couldn't help themselves as Ina very quickly made art joking about the fact Ollie has a sword in her head... ^note Anya is a humanized sword and Calli quickly set her sights on the newcomers in scary fashion. Reine was also quick to the shitposting field with jokes that she was doing an RTA on ruining Yagoo's dreams.
• The question of pineapple on pizza continues to be a divisive subject, with each member of hololive clear about where they stand on the matter. That is, except for Polka:
  Polka: "I think pineapple on pizza is fine..."
  * gets disconnected from a session of Among Us*
  Polka: "The connection dropped because I supported pineapple on pizza! Oh my goooooood!"
  * starts a new game*
  Polka: "Pizza shouldn't have pineapple after all."
• During Mio's 2nd Anniversary concert, Fubuki asks why Mio is hiding behind an illustration. She reveals to Fubuki that she is getting married. Fubuki is less than pleased when told about it.
• To celebrate YAGOO's birthday, the Cover staff presented him with a cake. Said cake had several YAGOO Waddling Head decorations. That said, he still seemed incredibly happy and amused that his face had become a meme among the community. In addition, his Twitter feed was full of talent and fans alike making light-hearted jokes at his expense, including parroting his standard "Congratulations!!!" messages.
• A sudden Google services outage in mid-December threw many streaming schedules into disarray, and left those who were streaming at the moment unable to properly end theirs. Some fans jokingly theorized that Calliope went to murder YouTube as revenge for Kiara's ban. The next day, Ina Tweeted that she had a strange dream of a giant Amelia ground-pounding the satellite.
• Beyond the Stage is a major live concert, and amidst the fantastic performances by the talents there's always a few funny moments to find:
  • Luna proves true to herself during the opening act, by completely running out of breath after one song, much to the hilarity of her genmates (especially Coco, who later literally cartwheeled onto the stage).
  • Marine's trademark "Ahoy! We are the Houshou Pirates" has the usual line about how she's too NSFW for Youtube and is going to get banned... except this time, the special effects actually add a ban overlay to her model for a split second.
  • The interludes for both days feature updated versions of Watame's "Can You Say Hololive?", including everyone up to Indonesia 2nd Gen. Things get comedic when Rushia ends up throwing Pekora out for taking too long with her konpekos, and then we get to Coco...
    Coco: Uh, I've never really had a trademark greeting...
    Watame: Eh!? Come on, Coco-chi, introduce yourself properly!
    • Gura's and Amelia's introductory greetings are their trademark "a" and "hic".
    • In a Blink-and-You-Miss-It moment, Calli's face changes from a smiling expression to an annoyed one in the background of Kiara's trademark "Kikkeriki!" greeting.
  • One of the last few songs performed in STAGE 1 "Curry Meshi Miracle" from the Nissin collab. But without Subaru present to round out Spice Love (Subaru + Pekora + Aqua), someone had to fill in — Haachama. The song performed transformed into "Hacha-Mecha Miracle" ("Total Mess Miracle"), and audience was rife with cooking jokes.
• The official Hololive twitter account announced a celebratory item for Matsuri getting 500k Twitter followers: a giant plush of her mascot, Ebifrion. In the official images containing information about pricing and size, it also included a "YAGOO size comparison," which was Yagoo with a neutral, "dead inside" facial expression while holding the plush up, something which easily is the size of his torso. Since then he seems to be the go-to model whenever a talent releases either clothes or a large item; he has since modeled Ina's Takodachi beanbag, Gura's birthday merchandise, and Coco's birthday/graduation collection.
• Marine's Youtube channel features a host of fan-submitted short videos over which the Hololive members get to dub. Among them:
  • A brief skit between herself and Gura
    Gura: Senchou, ahoy!
    Marine: Ahoy!
    Gura: How are ya?
    Marine: I'M HORNY!
    Gura: (Beat) a
  • Korone being simultaneously cute and menacing
  • Marine declaring she's a turtle, then getting the piss beat out of her by Noel when she comes to steal her eggs, complete with Flare passing by the incident with only a glance and a remark. All of this topped off with the girls Corpsing by the end.
  • Marine offering a chocolate Valentine to Korone. Unfortunately, she ends up accidentally killing Korone. It is followed-by Korone suddenly recovers when everyone realizes she's only part-dog. Mio, Okayu, and Fubuki arrive shortly afterwards and partake of some chocolate as well, only to die in short order because their respective species suffer from chocolate poisoning.

    Marine: Why're all the Gamers such a pain in the ass?!

  • Rushia calling Marine out on her philandering.
  • Kanata is late for work and her wings are busted. Marine shows up and offers to ride with her... on a tricycle. Rather than accept the offer, Kanata just silently flies away.
• During several streams, the official Discord YouTube channel made comments on several hololivers' streams. While Pekora and Aqua didn't notice them, the rest of them reacted with varying levels of shock, laughter, and disbelief.
• On January 12, 2021, Botan holds a faux evening news segment in same vein to AsaCoco which features every other hololive members and the big news they had from the past year. When she featured Moona, it goes with a picture of Moona with a realistic smiling mouth, and Botan clarifies she's not making fun of Moona because the latter send it herself when the former asked for a picture of her. Botan also stated that Moona thought she will be an idol upon joining hololive but ended up becoming a comedian instead.
• On January 10, 2021, YAGOO uploaded a short video giving a brief explanation of what Cover is and thanking all the hololive fans for their continued support. However, he explicitly called Cover an "entertainment company," which many fans have taken as him admitting that they're no longer an idol agency trying to create a "pure and wholesome" image.
• During one of Miko's earlier 3D streams, Pekora makes her blow a kiss for her fans and when she does, she falls on all fours in embarrassment. She then vowed to make Pekora experience the same embarrassment when she gets her own 3D debut. Sure enough, Miko makes her go through that (among other things) and Pekora gets so embarrassed that she goes ballistic.
• There were a few laughs to be had in the backstage of the Bloom concert:
  • Kanata has a notoriously bad fashion sense so Noel was fairly surprised to see her come in wearing stylish clothes. Until she looked down and saw that Kanata was also wearing socks and crocs, which caused Noel a bit of dismay because Kanata was just shy of actually having a well-coordinated outfit for once.
  • When they were about to eat lunch, Noel saw Kanata destroy her potato. When asked, Kanata replied "My power was too strong and it blew the potato to smithereens."
  • Noel had apparently been looking for an opportunity to show of the pair rings she and Flare got, so she just went right up to Subaru and Towa and started gushing about it, to Flare's embarassment. Subaru turned to Towa and asked if they should get their own, to which Noel replied that "You guys don't have that kind of relationship" and Subaru apparently found it hilarious that Noel was intervening on Icarus Jet Coaster.
  • When Subaru and Aqua were hanging out in the waiting room, Matsuri just came up and glomped Aqua. Aqua turned to Subaru with a pleading face, silently asking for help and Subaru was so taken aback at how much Aqua's face looked like the pien emoji that she burst out laughing.
• Gura posted a rather rough drawing of her and Calli on Twitter, which caused Kiara to respond about how good it was treating Gura as if she was her and Calli's daughter. When someone replied suggesting that Gura earned a trip to the aquarium to see the sharks, it led to an interesting conversation about Kiara's parenting style.
  Kiara: If she wants to look at sharks she better look in the mirror, or jump into the ocean, I can't take her to the damn aquarium every god damn week ffs
• Marine says something seemingly profound, leading to Pekora praising her thoughtfulness. Marine reveals it's a line from Dragon Ball Z's opening theme song, CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA.
• Calli held a drawing stream where she made her own rendition of Anya. The chat joking suggested that she draw her bald. Calli played along with the idea, but wasn't actually going to do it, though she did say that bald people actually are beautiful and shouldn't be judged for a lack of hair. Anya would later tweet that if she were to go bald, it would be for Calli-Sempai. Someone cautioned that Anya should think before she tweets, with a disturbing visual example.
  Anya: #BirthdayNewLook
• March 15th is Shoe the World Day, so a hashtag for VTuber shoes started trending on Twitter.
  • Several people began joking that this hashtag was a ploy by Haachama to collect feet pics.
  • While most of the talent posted their shoes as requested, Ina posted a closeup of one of her tentacles, while Anya posted the photo of the tip of an actual keris.
  • Roboco posted an animated image of her flexing her non-humanoid robot feet, garnering a mixture of reactions ranging from fascinated to disturbed.
  • Before Amelia posted her shoes, her immediate Tweet prior was "I just came back, why is everyone posting feet, what's going on?!"
• While various talents have had a history of being shadowbanned or demonetized by YouTube for many reasons, Haachama and Coco defy this by somehow getting a video classified by the algorithm as a "kids' video". The videos in question: Haachama's "BITCH MADE PASTA" and Coco's "ASACOCO FOR KIDS" — both using a crass or surreal humor that's most definitely not kid-oriented.
• Hololive announced a compilation of piano sheets so that you can play your favorite hololive original on piano, including "BLUE CLAPPER", "Shiny Smily Story", and "Say! Fanfare". Right at the end of the song list, listed under "extra", is Ayame's Docchi Docchi "song".
• During Calliope's birthday celebration, she took some call-ins. It started off heartwarming enough, with Watame singing Happy Birthday to her, and Kiara playing her own special birthday song. Then Ina came along.
  • Ina used a voice modulator to prank Calli into thinking Death-sensei had called her. She had Calli sweating bullets until she dropped the act.
  • When Ame calls in, she finishes her call by signing off because she's "naked in bed". Calli confesses to the audience that she has no idea how to respond to a comment like that. She goes onto a tangent on why someone Sleeps in the Nude, but then leaves the conversation thread hanging in awkward silence before abruptly switching back to prepare for the next caller.
  • Reine sang Happy Birthday in her own language. It's in peafowl, instead of the expected Indonesian.
  • Ollie came in SCREAMING LIKE A BANSHEE in excitement and nearly made Calli to go deaf. Ina later commented that she also experienced pain.
• Pamomi Ch. on Youtube uploaded a meme video that mashed up "Never Gonna Give You Up" with "ID:entity Voices". ^note The video has since been privated of their own volition.
  Kureiji Ollie Ch. hololive-ID: PAMOMI... WE NEED TO TALK...

  Pamomi Ch.: OH NO YOU'RE LITERALLY THE FIRST COMMENT
  Moona Hoshinova hololive-ID: .... bro
• In the backstage of Nene's 3D debut, she reveals that she wore some brand new panties to fit the occasion and to lift her spirits. When proceeded to change her clothes, Lamy saw them and declared them to be super-lame. Nene defended her choice which led to the two having a debate on the merits of their own panty preferences. Coming to an impasse, they both decided to retaliate against each other by sharing to their own fans the others' style of underwear.
• A number of the idols have been taking a quiz to properly name Japan's prefectures, with Kanata and Matsuri motivated by Noel promising to allow them to touch her knight-cups if they perfect it. Upon hearing this, Flare acted nonchalant while sharing that she bought matching bridal-themed lipstick for herself and Noel while Marine bragged that she can touch them at any time anyway.
  • Rushia sent a similar request with a different tone, asking Noel if she'll "give her breasts" should the necromancer get a perfect score. For this, Noel prepares a shirt graphic with "pettan" written on it, intending to wear it should Rushia achieve her goal to symbolically give her the breasts she so desires. Unfortunately, she's off by two points, so Noel sends the "pettan" shirt to her and she wears it on stream.
• In the main channel, Towa and Watame host an ad stream for VTuber chips. Part of the draw are profile cards of various talents and Towa cards come up on two notable occasions:
  • One card describes Towa as having a devil level of 5 and an angel level of 0, to which the audience can only react in confusion. She is also supposed to have an "Eternal Beam" with which she can brainwash people into calling her a devil. She tries it on the audience, but all it does is cause them to chant "TMT!"
  • Watame notices on a different card that Towa's breasts are pushed up.
  • Upon pulling Roberu's card, they express initial confusion at the fact that one of his stats, 'Eating Habits' is at a solid zero. They later comment that he should buy 100 packets of the potato chips, as well as sing an original song about the chips. Sure enough, during his own ad stream (on the Holostars main channel), the stream's conclusion shows that he actually did indeed come up with a song.
• On June 24 2021, the official Hololive and Cover Twitter accounts were given the verification mark. The same can't quite be said for some of the other accounts just yet.
  Holostars Official, with a screenshot showing their rejected verification request: Why.
• Following Coco's retirement, the hololive site updated to put "OG" next to her name. While it normally means "Original Girl", fans of Coco knew she wanted it to be "Original Gangster" (as it is in English speaking circles).
• In the lead-up to IRyS's debut, Amelia tweeted about her hype. Calli responded "I'm a watnesser." Ina isn't impressed, and Calli's response is incredibly passive-aggressive with a side of Full-Name Ultimatum.
  Ame: im a witnesserer...are you?
  Calli: I'm a watnesser.
  Ina: There was an attempt
  Calli: WOW SORRY I CAN NEVER BE ON YOUR LEVEL, INA'NIS.
• During the lead-up to the release of the #holoENPrelude video, a noticable section of the chat started acting like a Cargo Cult, spamming "PRAY TO THE CUBE" in several different languages. When the holoENOmen video was uploaded two weeks later, history repeated itself, with most of pre-stream chat now consisting of "PRAY TO THE ORB". The same happened with the proper debut video, where the joke worship now shifted to "PRAY TO THE ROCK/ISLE"
  Pat0723: Hololive EN main channel uploaded a premier. With 0 context in what it was going to be. All we did was just sat there for probably more then 6 hours with only the thumbnail of a Cube for context. Slowly, bit by bit we started to succumb towards it and a few hours before the premier went live we made a religion out of it and now we praise it 🙏PRAY TO THE CUBE🙏
  • With the upload of the Wanted video, the waiting room cargo cult has returned, now chanting "PRAY TO THE NEWSPAPER".
• At the beginning of August 2021, Cover opened a pop-up store in Akihabara to sell some hololive character goods. In order to better promote this, they also created the Mikodanye, a giant mascot suit of Sakura Miko. Fans and talent alike reacted with a mix of amazement and horror at it, with Miko herself using a few pictures of YAGOO seemingly about to be attacked and turning them into a "To Be Continued" meme.
• Gura and Calli's KING cover is, for the most part, amazing. However, near the end the pair start goofily Scatting along to the music, and at the end Gura asks for a fistbump and Calli comments how sick it was. There's also the artwork: like most KING covers, it features the singer lounging on a throne. However, to accommadate there being two singers, Gura is sitting on Calli's lap, and they are wearing crowns^note Normally, the artwork has the singer have a crown on their lap, with Calli having a hand on Gura's, seeming to keep it from falling off.
• After Gura's memorable utterance of the word "Chikubi", A-chan laments that the shark is learning weird Japanese. She calls out for people to teach her more polite terms but, after the chat attributes Gura's knowledge of these terms to Coco and Kiara, relents that it's to be expected since this is hololive.
• During Fubuki's 2021 birthday 3D concert, upon summoning the other three GAMERS to perform a cover of Momoiro Clover Z's "Nippon Egao Hyakkei", the group enters the stage in a seiza sitting position... except for Okayu, who is just plain lying on the floor. Korone's Double Take as the song begins is just icing on the cake.
• During Ollie's 2021 birthday stream, she briefly converses with Amelia, who sends her birthday wishes and hopes to start playing chess with Ollie. Right before she ends the call, Amelia leaves on a high note and prompts Calli's response in the chat.
  Amelia: Oh, by the way, I'm not wearing pants. [leaves]
  Calliope: MY MAN.
  Calliope: LEGEND.
• In the introductory video to the "hololive EN Shorts" channel, they showcased all the English members giving their greeting. Except for Mumei, instead showing her say "I forgot".
• The announcement of JP Gen 6, HoloX, coming just 9 hours before the first of them would debut. Furthermore, their character design and lore led to them quickly being dubbed "the chuunibyou generation". And then within 5 minutes of their announcement one of them had already gotten their Twitter account restricted.
  • Shortly after the announcement, Towa tweeted about her becoming a Senpai in the main branch again. Considering her propensity for good deeds, this doesn't go unnoticed by two of her other Kouhai:
    Polka: Senpai~ Buy bread~
    Lamy: Strawberry Juice too~
    Towa: You guys go buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Not long after Towa's initial tweet, Amelia Tweeted "what i tell you" referencing an old Quiplash response she came up with weeks ago that just so happened to share the name with the coming generation.
• During La+'s debut, Iofi and Ollie each live-tweeted their responses to people in the chat turning "Yes My Dark" into "Yagoo My Daddy".
  Iofi: Help
  There's someone typed : Yagoo My Daddy in the comment
  I'm dying
  Ollie: SOMEONE SAID YAGOO MY DAD AND I CANT ANYMORE WWWWWWWWWWWW
• Towa sent out a tweet to wish Yagoo a happy birthday. His reply to that? "Omedetou."
• Oga tweets to announce that he has received the verified mark. Iofi is unamused, leading to an exchange of emotes.
  Oga: Oha-Oga. Hi, I'm Oga☑.
  Iofi: Ha?
  Oga: Iofi will also have it soon.
  Iofi: (´;ㅿ;｀)
  Oga: (☉౪☉)
  Iofi: (ㆆ_ㆆ)
• When Holo EN released a cover of "The Twelve Days of Christmas", some were quick to point out how fitting it was that Calli was day ten, which had "ten lords a-leaping" as its gift, considering her time spent playing Jump King. Meanwhile, Ina's "five golden rings" is significantly louder than the other girls' lines, and she pokes fun at it with "FIVE ONION RINGS"
• During Towa's 3D live concert "Scream" on January 3, 2022, Okayu, Pekora and even Mio decided to troll Towa by performing Marine's "idol steps" after finishing the first chorus of "Candy-Go-Round", leaving the poor devil confused before recovering in time for the second verse.
• External drama has led to Rushia taking a break to recuperate, but Haachama is there to offer her support. She puts forth a Tweet with the hashtag #WeLoveRussia^note Through sheer coincidence Russia was threatening to invade Ukraine at the time, before quickly realizing her mistake and correcting it to #WeLoveRushia.
• In January 2022 the ID girls decided to sing "id:entity voices" on Discord. Of course, with ID being ID the result turned out to be way more chaotic than it supposed to be, starting with Reine quoting the "ada TV" meme, Ollie using the wrong verse, and the song turning into Shiny Smily Story and Blue Clapper at one point. see for yourself!
• HoloFes 2022 saw the use of real-life mascots based on in-universe mascots, the standout star being Smol Ame. Whoever they got for the suit nailed Amelia's mannerisms to a T. Fans joked that it really was Ame under there.
• On March 17th of 2022, Ollie posted a video asking the other girls (and a few members of Holostars) an important question: Would they punch Ollie for a million dollars/yen? Most of the video is hilarious, starting with the fact that most of her fellow members of HoloID almost immediately said yes. Other standouts include:
  • Subaru (as usual) playing the metaphorical Straight Man and being baffled why she was asking the question
  • Ina and Kronii independently arriving at the same answer of "I'd rather hit on you instead"
  • Iofi wondering if someone more punchable than Ollie might arrive in ID Generation 3 (which ended up getting announced and starting debuts less than a week later)
  • Anya confusing the situation so much that they somehow ended up in a Dragon Ball reference.
  • Haachama says no, but she'd like to plan a project with Ollie instead using the million yen, then deciding the project would probably only cost 10,000 yen. Ollie's attempt to get her back on track simply result in both of them being confused.
  • Choco attempting to turn the situation into a business venture by offering various "abuse options" with different price ranges, leaving Ollie absolutely baffled^note Part of the reason for this, as well as some of the other strange responses from the Japanese branch and Holostars, is due to the exact phrase Ollie uses being ambiguous, as it can also mean "Could you please hit me for a million yen?" or "Could you please hit me with a million yen?", meaning it could be taken as a request rather than simply a question
  • Towa insisting she would merely pat Ollie on the head instead (at which point the video overlays the text "TMT")
  • And of course, Bae's response when Ollie asked why she felt it was important to know where she would be punching Ollie:
    WHERE IS IMPORTANT
    FACE - YES
    BUTT - YES
    • She also clarifies that she wouldn't hit her on the boob, and manages to get Ollie to admit she'd probably slap Bae if she didn't hit her.
  • Risu, Moona, Mumei, and Calli all independently come to the conclusion that, as a zombie, Ollie doesn't feel pain.
  • During their chess collab, a superchat for Mika of Nijisanji asked the same question, to which Mika said yes. When Ollie asked where she would hit her, in this case the cheeks, Mika fired back asking which one (her face or her butt). Ollie never answered back.
• April 1st is the initiation ceremony of Nodoka, the new staff member. A-chan welcomes her and orients her to the place and the business.
  • Right off the bat, Nodoka's told that the office explodes a lot, courtesy of Holo no Graffiti shenanigans. A-chan says that she's developed a great endurance to withstand being caught in these explosions.
  • She's warned to enter the recording studio with caution, not because the microphones are sensitive, but because a lot of the talents are armed.
  • During a lunch break, A-chan warns her of emergency situations like a lack of food. Fortunately, according to her, several non-human talents (of note are Watame, Pekora and Kiara) are able to assist with these situations.
  • Sora comes in at the end, revealing that everything A-chan told her is just an April Fools' Day prank. They give her an initiation gift... which turns out to be a huge stack of documents that she has to sort out.
• For April Fools Day 2022, Calli manifested a Spear Counterpart named Calvin "C-Man" Morrison and managed to take over Calli's Twitter account. He immediately got into a twitter war with Haykos, who just shuts him down.
  Calvin: TOLD SOUNDCLOUD I WAS 444 YEARS OLD AND THEY BANNED ME, SHIT AIN'T FAIR.
  Haykos: go crawl back into your ceiling
  Calvin: IM SORRY WHO EVEN IS THIS CLOWN
  Haykos: clown bruh i aint a mirror
  Calvin: WHY YOU GOT THAT FAKE ASS CUT THEN BOI
  Haykos: this dude trippin. we go to the same f*cking barber.
• Hololive Productions got a promotional collaboration with Shueisha, and various members were asked to give a few manga recommendations. Some of them are so on point they're worth a chuckle.
  • Korone, being Korone, recommends two retro classics (Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai and Kinnikuman)... and one total gorefest.
  • Mashle: Magic and Muscles gets one mention. Of course, it's from Noel.
  • Pekora and Polka both recommend Takopi's Original Sin as if it was a cutesy manga and most definitely not a horribly depressing romp that happens to star a cute animal thingy.
  • Roberu just cheerfully plugs his favorite Ecchi (To Love Ru and Ayakashi Triangle) with zero regrets.
  • Mumei's recommendations consist of "Tokyo Ghoul", "Tokyo Ghoul (Again)" and "Look I Just Really Like Tokyo Ghoul". Apparently there was a misunderstanding (she thought it was "up to" three recommendations, and assumed her manager would just send a rec for TG rather than translate and send her joke wholesale) but she's glad it ended up that way, because even she thinks it's hilarious.
• A-Chan's major activity on the hololive subreddit starts with a post celebrating Nodoka's birthday. Her next known reddit interaction... is this comment, clearly showing she does browse the subreddit and has been aware of what goes on.
• Sora's 2022 birthday 3D concert is mostly wholesome with the reveal of her newest costume resembling the white dress Kizuna Ai wore on her last live. Then we get to the guest appearances of Lui and IRyS, who are depicted as animated canvas of their Live2D avatars; at least it's better than a cardboard cutout of their character art.
• When Kanata met IRyS for the first time IRL, she pretended to be Miko. Were it not for some of the other members present, the Nephilim might have walked away none the wiser to her senpai's prank.
• Reine Tweets an exchange where she was about to leave the Discord voice chat while Kobo's begging her to stay. Reine joked that she'd stay if Kobo licked her feet, and Kobo immediately obliged.
• ordan, Sora, A-chan, and Nodoka's official artst, drew A-chan and Nodoka in swimsuits. What makes it funny is when YAGOO of all people retweeted it, and ordan was suprised. Koyori herself actually mentioned this little incident.
• During the hololive 5th anniversary talk stream (which features YAGOO, several talents and the comedy duo Nishikigoi), when it was Axel's turn to be interviewed, he unapologetically claims that TEMPUS is more like a group that crushes YAGOO's dream, immediately after YAGOO himself explained that he envisioned holostars as having a brotherhood synergy that the audience can relate to.
• Despite EN's holoweEN series being mostly horror and takes itself seriously, there are still funny moments to give viewers some levity.
  • In "Ocellus", when discussing reasons for Bae's paranoia, IRyS thinks this was all brought on by her accidentally walking in on her in the bathroom and apologizes. Kiara, however, points out that IRyS has done that to her many times to the point where she's questioning if it was really accidental despite IRyS's protests.
  • Also in "Ocellus", when Kiara is having trouble brushing IRyS's hair due to her horns, IRyS asks Kiara if she could remove them. Kiara refuses, pointing out that A) she doesn't know how to remove them and B) IRyS should appreciate that she has weapons attached to her head.
• The HoloEN Advent Calendar has a little bit of everything, including some downright hilarious moments.
  • On day 3 Fauna does a self-harmonized version of "Oh Fauna Tree," over a still image of a Christmas tree with her face sticking out of ornaments.
  • Calli apparently forgot to record her contribution for day 4, and turned in a rambling mess of self-roasting and questionable poetry. The end result is So Bad, It's Good.
  • Day 6 features Gura as a North Pole security guard. During the course of interrogating the viewer, she checks his "stockings" for coal, discovers him to be on the naughty list, and implies that she's having an affair with Mrs. Claus.
• Suisei and Koyori appear as guests during an information stream for Studio FgG's upcoming 2023 sRPG game, Aster Tatariqus. Yoko Shimomura trolls Suisei into drinking a yellow-ish coloured drink as part of a punishment game.
• On the main group channel, Usada Pekora's "The plan to rabbiditize the whole world":
  • For the first segment, Pekora hosts a quiz show with a ridiculous set-up: to answer, the holomem must shoot themselves out of a cannon into one of the two breakable walls, right or wrong. Behind one wall is a safety mat — the other a pool of "Usada Liquid", which turns the holomember that gets drenched into Pekora. Naturally, shenanigans ensue with Watame, Okayu, Towa, and Marine as Pekora:
    • The fact that the "Usada Liquid" is stated by Pekora to be her bodily fluids has led to many crude jokes at her expense, such as with Marine...
      Marine: I guess I'll drink it.
      Pekora: Don't be gross!
    • Marine got the best end of the deal with her effectively having a harem of Pekoras, the other two (Watame and Okayu) playing along with open displays of affection that Pekora would be extremely against normally.
    • One downside to Pekora's ultimate plan is how the other members act while looking like her, whether flaunting their figure or posing in ways to make Pekora protest. By the end of the group song performance of "Pekorandom Brain", Pekora admits that turning them into her rabbit army was a bad idea after both Okayu and Marine spread their legs wide and twerk respectively.
  • The final segment of various hololive members impersonating Pekora, with varying hilarious results:
    • For several of the members, they treat Pekora's greeting as if she's saying d-almond, d-almond.
    • Korone's segment, portraying Pekora purchasing the no.27 cigarettes at a drug store, with the video cutting off immediately after two lines of dialogue.
      Pekora: I became a smoker?! [beat] And it ends there?!
    • This skit became oddly prophetic several months later with the debut of ReGLOSS, as Raden has a laugh strikingly similar to Pekora's and is a known smoker. No.27 cigarettes became an immediate meme associated with her.
    • Bae roleplays as a magical maid Pekora.
      Pekora: Is this how I look to her?
    • Calli... doesn't even attempt to act like Pekora, much less sound like her. Instead, she opts for a fast-paced spiel of trivia about hololive production and COVER Corp, in English, leaving the JP holomems in the dark over what she's even saying.
      Botan: International Pekora!
      Pekora: Oh my god, I'm so fluent!
• Even though they haven't started their debut, the new members of Holostars Tempus begin roasting the founding members on Twitter. Poor Axel becomes the new punching bag despite trying to assert seniority. As expected, Kobo asks the newbie, Josuiji Shinri, if he plays Valorant. Then, Axel warns him to run but it's too late as Shinri accepts Kobo's invite. It even gets more hilarious that Kobo calls him "Jasuke"^note Jagung susu keju, or milked corn cheese.
• Valentine's Day 2023 features a short visual novel project courtesy of Calli, where the player can take various routes to spend the day with the EN girls. As heartwarming as it gets, there's bound to be shenanigans.
  • For starters, Kronii invites the viewer to go shopping with her and Amelia, and even suggests to the viewer that "they could touch some grass."
  • If you stay behind to clean up with Kiara and Ina, one of the KFP employees, Jimmy, winds up in the oven. Ina cheekily suggests to let him cook.
    • If you choose to follow Kiara outside to build a snowman with her, she makes one suspiciously in YAGOO's image...
    • If you choose to stay with Ina to cook, she starts by looking around the kitchen for inspiration. Calli unsubtly steers the narration a little.
      You and Ina gently and politely (VERY POLITELY) because no way in hell am I cleaning up y'all's mess—
      Uh, I mean, you guys gently root around the kitchen searching for cooking utensils.
  • If you go with Ame and Kronii, Bubba gets hungry and Kronii has a couple of potential treats on hand: a chocolate scone or a... sandwich of sorts. Ame notes that the former is not edible for dogs, and she refuses to let anyone eat the sandwich. Kronii bemoans that she will never live down the blended sandwich stream.
    • If you follow Ame after Bubba, she makes a big show about trying to deduce Bubba's movements... only to admit she doesn't have a clue.
    • If you stay with Kronii, she offers the viewer her chocolate scone after her sandwich predictably gets turned down. The viewer is allegedly miffed that it's not real chocolate, and Kronii sasses them back.
      Kronii: SO WHAT IF IT'S NOT REAL CHOCOLATE?! I DON'T OWE YOU THIS! IT'S NOT EVEN WHITE DAY!
  • If you tag along with Gura, Fauna and Mumei, the banter that ensues is reminiscent of SNOTcast minus Kronii.
    • If you follow Fauna to the pharmacy to find something for Mumei, she is about to buy a "natural remedy", only to for your character to point out that it's a laxative.
  • If you follow Calli, Bae and IRyS to the amusement park, Bae and IRyS start bickering Like an Old Married Couple, and Calli wants you to help keep them separated.
• On 2023 Feb 28, A-chan announced on her monthly announcement stream that the main hololive channel itself on YouTube would become open to memberships. She barely finished the announcement when a veritable flood of memberships began showing their notifications in the chat, completely taking A-chan off guard and leaving her flustered at so many joining up at once when she hadn't even announced the details and perks of each plan.
• For Bae's strawberry-themed 2023 "not-birthday", she travels with IRyS to a strawberry farm to taste various types of strawberries. IRyS unintentionally ends up making strawberries sound yabai, and the ending animation shows Bae punting IRyS over the hills in the distance.
• A long-standing Running Gag of Hololive's major concerts is that where most of the girls can be safely assumed to sing their original creations or popular songs, you can never, ever predict what song Korone is going to go with. From obscure game songs (Hello Hello Nariyansu Ondo^note a minor joke song from the obscure PS2 game New Roommania in Beyond the Stage), to goofy classic anime openings (Hashire Makibao! in Our Bright Parade), to outright meme songs, she's guaranteed to catch everyone off-guard every time. It even regularly leaks into GAMERS group songs, which often take a turn for the bizarre.
  Koyori: There's only one person in this world who can be an idol while singing I Can't Beat Airman!
• Kobo appears at the Boston Anime Festival with Kiara, and each sings a song for the occasion. Kiara sings a normal song and Kobo, being Kobo, sings "Crazy Frog". Afterward, Kiara sputters that that wasn't the song Kobo sang in rehearsal so she was caught off guard as much as the audience.
  Kiara: Wh-what was that song choice?
  Kobo: Crazy Frog.
  Kiara: You bamboozled me! Because, in the rehearsal you were playing your acoustic guitar and singing your own song, what the hell?
  Kobo: Ehehe... surprise, Mother!
• Ollie polls her coworkers: "Chocomint, yay or nay?" and records their responses.
  • Right off the bat, before Ollie can even finish the question, Iofi goes "You expect me to eat medicine?" and proceeds to insult the flavor. The discussion derails into "how is chocomint the same as medicine?"
  • Kaela disagrees, and Ollie brings up how Kaela enjoys eating rice with oranges. Kaela just says she doesn't like chocolate... but will make an exception if Ollie is the chocolate.
  • After Moona says "yes", Ollie invites her to the MCLPS (Mint Chocolate Lovers Protection Squad)... and then proposes to her. Moona declines marriage but offers a "little sister" position instead.
  • Zeta says "yes" and Ollie assigns her to the "Yay" camp. But then she elaborates that she loves the "toothpaste taste of mint over the chocolate", and Ollie nudges her into the middle-road between "Yay" and "Nay", taking offense at the term "toothpaste taste."
  • Right after finishing up ID, next is Matsuri... who also compares the mint part to toothpaste. Ollie professes her preference for chocomint, to which Matsuri threatens "I guess I'll have to make you disappear with chocomint." Ollie gracefully accepts her death at the hands of her senpai.
  • Mel gives a vague response, ranking it 56th in her number of things she loves. Ollie retorts that it's a pretty long list, but then gets rizz'd by Mel when Mel says that Ollie's also in that list, ranking higher than chocomint.
  • Towa's response is even more ambiguous, placing it at "I won't go out of my way to order it, but I don't hate it." When pressed on the matter, she puts herself in the "yay" camp, but also doesn't reciprocate Ollie's subsequent advances.
  • Subaru bluntly dislikes chocomint, again comparing the taste to toothpaste. Ollie is disappointed that an agent of "justice" is against it and breaks up, even though they never dated.
  • Polka appreciates chocomint, and dislikes the notion that "it tastes like toothpaste." When asked on how she'd convince someone to eat chocomint, Polka would rather eat the other's share of chocomint rather than try to persuade the other party.
  • Okayu loves chocomint, and even accepts Ollie's proposal. Of course, Ollie's well aware that Korone won't take that lying down...
  • La+ quickly expresses her dislike for chocomint... and then says that she loves Ollie better. When Ollie says that she taste like chocomint, La+ changes her tone immediately based on her dislike of the flavor.
  • Koyori doesn't like mint so she doesn't like chocomint either. Ollie immediately perks up at the thought of selling Koyori's tongue "for research", offering her hand in marriage in exchange. Koyori doesn't bite, as she knows that Ollie's proposed to many others before her.
  • Kanata and Ollie bond over their love for chocomint. When Kanata expresses how she wants to lick up the ice cream, Ollie brings up that "she's also chocomint", and Kanata doesn't change her tone.
  • Aki Rose mentions that it looks cute but it doesn't taste good, maintaining that chocolate and mint should be kept separate. Ollie is floored by the Bait-and-Switch.
  • A-Chan and Ollie bond over their mutual love for chocomint. However, A-Chan apologizes for expecting a bust size upgrade in the near future, causing Ollie to brand her a "traitor". She offers Ollie a compromise, to which Ollie curses her with overtime.
  • Kronii compares the flavor to "a breath of fresh air"... but ultimately dislikes it. According to her, "too much fresh air hurts the head after all"
  • Ina immediately references the GYARI music video "Aoi-chan Is Going to Eat Chocomint No Matter What", and offers to integrate Ollie's allies into the Chocomint Regulation Team and forcibly assimilate the Nay camp.
  • Fauna goes to the "yay" camp and threatens everyone who disagrees with nature's wrath.
  • Calli quickly goes to the "yay" camp, but her response to Ollie's marriage proposal is mixed, giving her a "yesn't".
  • Altare was already privy to what Ollie's doing and enthusiastically answers yes before Ollie even poses the question.
  • Shinri loves the flavor "even though it tastes like toothpaste" which trips Ollie up.
    Ollie: THIS IS WHY YOU'RE IN MY ARCHNEMESIS LIST SHINRI... OTHER THAN THE OTHER REASON...
  • Bettel goes on a passionate speech defending chocomint, which Ollie is fully behind... until he mentions that he ate toothpaste as a child, which Ollie is disgusted by. He admits he may have been Saying Too Much.
  • Hakka compares it to toothpaste, but he follows up with "boy do I love toothpaste!" Ollie is offended at the notion that he enjoys the taste of toothpaste and begrudgingly puts him in the "yay" camp.
  • Miyabi enjoys the flavor so much that he'd have it for all three meals of the day. Ollie's slightly taken aback by this enthusiasm.
  • Rikka's methods of convincing someone is "it's good for your health, so let's enjoy it together!" It then turns cultish which starts to creep out Ollie.
  • Fuuma thoroughly disses the flavor, refusing to acknowledge it as food. Ollie is ready to get up in arms about this.
  • Right at the end, she poses the same question to her editor Phal. Phal immediately slaps in a whole paragraph about flavors he ranks above chocomint.
• Kiara and Ririka host a Shark Tank-esque stream, where fellow Holomems pitch their product to get the two to invest in it.
  • Up first is Bijou, who pitches the "Get Good Box", a sturdy box that seals your prized possessions inside and will only open if you achieve your chosen objective in the game you're playing a.k.a. you git gud. Kiara bluntly compares said pitch to a safe, and relays to Ririka that it's basically a "Hostage Box". Ririka still wants to invest in Bijou because she called them beautiful, and so they do.
  • Next up is Ollie, who pitches the "V-eeder 3000", a machine that shoots out food into your mouth while working from home, complete with adjustable bite sizes, temperature and type of food, and choking levels. Kiara promptly lays down some important questions that leave the zombie stumped: What if I'm just talking? Do I still have to cook the food myself? Does the machine have built-in refrigeration?
    • Ollie then presents her marketing team, consisting entirely of herself, yet she presents them as if they were different people. She also presents the testimonials of her product, who are also just Ollie but with hilariously misspelled names (Kuleishi Owwie and Kuweegee Ovie).
    • The first thing Ririka promptly asks Kiara is if this product is a scam, to Ollie's horror. Once the investment numbers have been put into play, Kiara agrees to invest... only if Ollie does the math for them, being a known math genius. Ollie then tries to cheat a little with the numbers, prompting Ririka to yell at her to shut up! Once the investment has been made, Ollie exclaims joyfully how she can finally buy all of- and it cuts off there. What did she want to buy?!
  • Next up is Kobo and Miko, forming the elite business duo Mikoboshabu, who pitch a "Baby Talk Translation Support" which helps to translate what a baby is trying to say. Both Kiara and Ririka are happy to invest, with Ririka in particular mentioning that her group happens to have a Holobaby (Hajime) in it.
  • After that comes Calliope, with some... very interesting business pitches.
    • She first pitches the "Smile Scrubber", describing it as a wondrous product that keeps your teeth clean so you can enjoy more sweets! It is a scrubber that you move back and forth across your teeth to clean them! (Sound awfully familiar yet?) Kiara is unimpressed and straight up calls it a toothbrush. Undeterred, Calli posts the testimonials for the product, with the review from Cover Staff standing out: "Hella Economical Lasting Product, My Everything!" Again, Kiara and Ririka are not impressed.
    • The reaper is undeterred and pitches a backup product: the "Paper Taper"! It holds all of your papers together for improved quality of life! The chat is unimpressed and snarks that it's basically just a paper clip, all while Calli unsuccessfully tries to silence them. Ririka begs Calli to just go home already.
    • But Calli has yet another product on hand! She starts off the pitch by asking if they're thirsty, and Kiara immediately points out that she's describing a water bottle, all while Calli pretends not to know what that is. Introducing: the "Hydro Holder"!
    • For the investments, Ririka offers $3... for everything. Kiara offers $10,000 for it to be used as comedy material. Ririka then takes pity on Calli and offers $20,000... only if Calli sings for her. As the investment concludes, Kiara casually lets Calli know that the products she just pitched already exist.
• As with the previous year, 2024 kicks off with hololive members swapping songs and outfits for the "Shuffle Medley 2024", which ended up being more cursed than last year.
  • Kanata sings Choco's "NoDistance" and she appears to not only get Choco's outfit but her chest as well. They're eventually revealed to be fake. Regardless, her illustrator, Oshio-mama, who is adamant about Kanata remaining petite, was not happy.
    Oshio-mama: Can we destroy the studio that Cover spent 2.7 billion on?
  • Marine sings Ina's "Violet" and takes full advantage of the costume swap.
    • Ina's dress is barely able to contain Marine's figure, especially around her chest. And unlike when Moona was wearing Pekora's outfit, nothing about Ina's outfit is modified to cover up Marine's assets. Talents watching the stream comment that the dress will likely not fit Ina after this. Ina later agrees and comments that the only thing that kept it together was a hidden but familiar wall-crawler.
      Ina: If you zoom in close enough, you'll see "Spooder-Man" holding the top together. [laughs]
    • Ina's dress apparently includes her tentacles. Unsurprisingly, Marine starts playing around with them, caressing a tentacle over her shoulder and having another slither around her leg. All the talents watching the stream immediately shrieked.
    • Both fans and hololive members reacting to the Medley started to get worried that Marine's actions might result in YouTube penalizing their channels.
      Noel: Is this really okay?! Are you trying to get everyone who's showing this on stream banned?!
      Pekora: Hey, I won't get banned, right?!
      Suisei: Hold up! Excuse me, but this is Hoshimachi Suisei's channel, so please stop it! [Everyone laughs]
      Koyori: Eh, is hololive channel going to be fine?
  • The other songs/swaps aren't as cursed but still have some funny details. Obvious ones include Nene choosing Polka's song so she can sing her name repeatedly and Kobo taking the chaotic rat's outfit to befit the VTuber Award she'd won. Then there were ones needing to be pointed out or explained, such as the photorealistic chicken Mio delivered and Risu peeping at Korone and Okayu as they swapped wedding rings (and somehow getting to the final planet for her part of the medley).
  • Speaking of Risu, Iofi gets pissed when she witnesses Risu wearing Sora's clothes, angrily insisting she should have had that honor instead. It gets to the point where Risu tries to leave. Apparently, before the watch-along stream started, Risu apologized to Iofi, but Iofi didn't understand why until the reveal. To rub salt in the wound, once the medley ends, Risu says:
    Risu: Her clothes smell nice, Yop!
    Iofi: Damn you! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
• February 29, 2024 saw the release of A-chan's new outfit, and she opened it up with... a shot of her having actual cleavage?! ...Only for it to be revealed to be A-chan padding her chest with melon pan.
• During the Dreamhack Concert in Melbourne on April 27, 2024, Calli catches a patron making plush versions of herself and Kiara kiss and calls it out.
