General V-Tuber thread

Man, that director got off lucky. Abusing her manager and throwing something at Suisei? He's lucky all he got was a shoe thrown at him and didn't end up getting cleft in twain by an oversized axe.

edit: I love out of context pagetoppers.

Finished Irys' Poppy's Playtime Chapter 3 stream. If I can be allowed to vent (in the frustration sense, not the Among Us sense), fuuuuck chat was obnoxious this stream. They were so obsessed with trying to railroad her to find every secret or to notice ever nook and cranny of the screen, but then when their "directions" are awful, some of them have the gall to blame her for not figuring it out.

The being upset at her not always seeing stuff clearly is especially annoying to see; Unclear indications of what's interactable or the being expected to notice a singular small point required to progress are common criticisms of these games, and certainly Chapter 3.

Rosemi 3D in under an hour! As seen from her Twitter the past few days, she's been... quite nervous and excited about it.

Axel and Altare did a post-3D-showcase chat which had to be privated because they were up to some shenanigans. Thankfully, they went through, determined which parts were SFW, and put it up as the VOD :p

Well, Axel had to edit out one part of the outfit reveal stream because one fan suggestion had Axel stick his dick out.

Aaaaand it got copyright blocked by SME. If it wasn't for that, I probably would never have known Rosemi had a 3D except for when the superchat numbers are compiled.

How down bad was that fan?

Enough that Toramane pretty much lost his shit in the chat when he saw the submission.

In a good way or a bad way?

Numbers are in. Rosemi's 3D amassed a grand total of slightly under 1,850 USD in superchats and super stickers, along with an average ccv of 12,3k peaking slightly under 15k. I knew Rosemi would bring far less money than Petra due to the lesser amount of JP fans, but this is a new low. And to top it, off, it's all under escrow because Sony Music Entertainment's automated copyright struck.

All while Uki is streaming by himself throughout the 3D live. Guess there's no common courtesy of no overlap for important events like these in Nijisanji unlike with hololive.

VTuber Agency not being scumbags challenge: Difficulty; IMPOSSIBLE.

Edit: Seems like embeds are still borked. Here's the video link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRmiaQkCylw

From the comments:

There's some debating back and forth, but overall this is a pretty common line of argument

At the moment, Idol's biggest issue seems to be that they're not great at screening their talents

While I do think its become clear that Nijisanji fosters a "scramble for the top spot" atmosphere, I can actually kind of understand the mindset of going ahead with streaming. Not everyone whose a fan of Uki is also a fan of Rosemi, and being a 3-D debut isn't really gonna be enough to change that for most. People who are fans of both are of course free to let Rosemi's take priority.

Plus, in Hololive's case, it often feels like less of a common courtesy thing, and more like because other Holomembers want to watch the 3-D premiere too.

Embeds are working for me though.

Anyways, CHADcast and YabaIRyS animated!

What the hell is going on at Idol? First it was Riro and now this.

Lucien Lunaris is streaming ''Doki Doki Literature Club''. I had thought from "THIS GAME LOOKS FUN!" and "I can't wait to play this cute visual novel" that he knew it by reputation at least, but he seemed genuinely surprised and scared by much of what happened in the second half. Not the world treasure that was Axel's stream, but a nice watch of someone with an edgy vampire design that is looking ever more ironic.

A reminder that Ollie is still the most downbad Holosimp idol.

About Pochi: A deeply cynical part of me says that if more than a few people come out with storys about them being mistreated there is always a rising chance of someone trying to jump on that train to benefit themselves.

I'm not saying that this happened here, but so far it basically Statement vs Statement, while Doki and Serafi had receipts.

(Discord Conversation Screenshots by themselves are not what I'd call a receipt on their own, those are not too hard to make up)

Lets see how this shakes out.

Vox is streaming again except he's doing it on Bilibili because its his "safe space" and from all accounts he's farming the parasocial defense force

Doki + Glasses

The time Monarch learned about counterfeit cheese :p

Funny, but getting a real expert on board would have brought out all the more weirdness. Like how "Parmiggiano" is a protected term in Italy, but "Mozzarella" actually changes between the south (where is must be made with buffalo milk) and north (where it may be made from dairy). Also her mangling of "Parmiggiano Reggiano" grated.

The USA's cheese stockpile aged like milk, I must say.

Ah man, the rabbit hole is always deeper than it looks, isn't it? Monarch's pre-game moments have been fun, if to see her dive into random topics. She spent the start of today's stream looking up the melting and boiling points of gold :p

Pochi Wanmaru has graduated from Idol Corp.

Edited by omega2900 on Mar 23rd 2024 at 9:14:05 AM

Okay, Pochi remains graduated, but she's apparently settled things amicably-ish with Idol, and has retracted allegations of misconduct on their part, citing misunderstandings. You can continue to like the agency

Basically, idol corp announced that Pochi and them came to a mutual agreement that she will be graduating effectively today.

As for the whole issue regarding money and her donorthon, it was all miscommunication on both sides. They said that, since she won't be able to fulfill milestones, her viewers can request a refund if they want while whatever is not refunded will directly go to her for moving and future expenses.
