Yeah Gura's good at singing but I don't think she has ever been proven to be good at song writing.
I dunno man, when she sang about wanting to be a cowboy, it brought a tear to my eye.

Anyone looking to do a word by word analysis of the lyrics of Ash Again needs to take a look at the song's credits - what you're analyzing is Casey Edwards' interpretation of Gura's "discord trauma dump", not a personal message from her.....

Usually, if the talent had even tangential input on the lyrics, they get co-credited as a lyrics writer, example above, and Mori being credited as a lyricist on fucking SNEAKING after she said she couldn't change enough to save the song. This might've been entirely written by Casey with basically no input from Gura whatsoever. I choose to believe that, because that would be funnier, and why live life any other way?

It's a good point, though in this case it's still more of a "take it with a grain of salt/this is a second-hand telling" than "these aren't Gura's words/feelings."
Also, wouldn't it be fair to assume she had editorial/review rights over the lyrics?
That, or she took no part in it at all. Which would've been hilarious as fuck.
But the bigger question is then "Does Mr Edwards even know who Gura is and what vtubing is?" :smugpipi:
(I actually don't know)

In a stream who's target audience is me, specifically, Pink Woman will Nuzlocke Pokémon Emerald in a few hours. Posting this here now to get ready, I'll post the stream in General once it's live, still getting used to the thread split:



I hope she remembers how difficult the rival fights are at the progression chokepoints, otherwise she's going to have a bad time!

inb4 moved back because she hates Kiara so much she forgot about her concert starting about 45 minutes to an hour before that

He's been in Biboo's chat and gave his blessing for her DMC meme songs. I think he may have even done the lyrics for one of them.

(I also forgot to mention the Amesame off-collab karaoke that kick-started the entire Myth off-collab arc.)
Gura joining in as they sing Journey of a 1000 years was Kino of the highest order
I struggle to believe HoloEN as a branch will ever produce such Kino ever again

Also, obligatory mention of Kiara offering to give Gura a direct Kiss during the pop-tarts offcollab and Gura immediately folding

So I was trying to collect and think about why I just can't get into Advent and Justice like I did Council and Myth, and frankly part of it is I just have a hard time seeing them anything more than incredibly talented entertainers. When I watched the SNOT talents, I always found something relatable with them. I just felt more of a sense of comradery in their successes than Advent/Justice who kind of feel bigger than life. I admit part of that again is I am probably just too busy in life to get intimated with them like I did with Myth/Council, but I still just don't get the same feeling.

Anyways this Gura Mumei collab feels bittersweet. I am happy it's happening again but it's the last that will ever happen, for good. I am not sure if Shachimu and Senzawa will or would ever collab.

Ironically this is what I like about Holo, normal people doing normal things is pretty boring to me.
If all vtubers were just "regular streamers with a gimmick" then I wouldn't be into vtubers at all, the higher entertainment value and ability to be characters while also being real people is what makes this industry special in my eyes.

Niggas will say all this and then continue to never watch Nerissa, even though she is one of the most relatable retards in the world, and not just because she's like Ollie but with an actual defense stat.

Anyways, I don't entirely disagree, cause both of my Holo favorites are absolute goofy goobers who over time became bigger than life figures, and being there for the ride is what locked me in, but I also haven't had trouble liking anyone out of the newer gens.

Nerissa has been growing me for that reason actually. Out of Advent, Fuwamoco and Bijou almost seem engineered as the perfect streamers out of the gate and Shiori's been a veteran at this for almost a decade. The little I've seen of Nerissa gave me the closest vibes to what I liked.

Kronii raided into Kiara's 3d live, which doesn't start in another 45 minutes instead of Gura and Mumei's stream. She actually hates them :fishmandispair:

I want to like the Homos so much but everyday new gay shit keeps coming out that makes it harder to want to support them. How the fuck does the woman have more balls than Jurard is it because he's a seanig
The homo's suck because it was literally the most obvious choice to make his pronouns Sexual Tyrannosaurus.

Mumei & Gura killing time until Kiara's concert. Glad the 2 were able to have a good time and best to them.

I didn't realize it was all going to be Hello! Project covers, so Kiara is going full Idol Otaku today and drug the rest of EN into it. heh
