Scarle pissed off Twitter people gaza isreal shit

I feel like I have a toxic relationship with this chick, every time I unsubscribe, something makes me come back.

Phase fans have been working over time, I kind of respect the hustle. Every other place of discussion I see them like, "Man, that's crazy... Sorry Nijifans... you know who might cheer you up? I know this cute canadian chihuahua... a couple of her streams will have you right as rain."

> canadian chihuahua
10ma?

Lol I woke up only to see he private the video. I wonder why he private it? xD

Edit: Replacing “the” with “he”.

This was likely planned for more than a year. Probably since Lily's graduation or even before.

Here's Aviel's tweet announcing the re-debut plans in January of last year:


The article in the tweet was deleted (probably got lost when Idol remade its website) but there's an archive here.

He goes in more detail about re-debut plans during one of his newsletters 2 months later:

The issue isn't that Brave was involved but more so how long it took. Aviel said more details would be announced a few weeks afterwards but there was nothing. People were thinking August might be the month since both Katta and Nikki's birthdays were then, but the only thing that happened was Katta got birthday merch that maybe showed a new design. After that, it was more nothing until the announcement yesterday. That's more than a year of mostly silence. Maybe the Israel situation was messing with their plans but who knows? The reception to the announcement seems to mainly be positive at least.

Maybe they had model design delays

Replace "canadian chihuahua" with "big titty seiso" or "bilingual singer" or "autistic programmer" etc. Comment sections, the Nijisanji reddit, other forums... "By the way, I've discovered this little company called Phase connection? A coffee company or something... But they have their own vtubers... ah but you don't want to hear about that... unless..."

When i last checked reddit etc. people were all posting that one twitter thread and call Phase as bad as niji in rare instances it's mentioned. Sounds annoying and unnecessary, if its actually Phase fans. But it probably annoys NDF even more so for this once I'll overlook.

I spoke about it here but I'll edit with the idol announcement if I find it

Edit: can't find it but I'm pretty sure it happened right after E-sekai hopefully someone else can find it

I'm going to assume the apology was forced because Nijisanji. If not, it would be absolutely retarded to apologize to those fаggots.

Wake up babe, new chart depicting Hololive Production's various branches on the about page just dropped:

This is the previous version:

A updated version of this chart which includes DEV_IS can be seen in this video, but it was never added to the website.
The holopro site is also being updated with a new ad campaign:

I quite like the tagline: "Idol or not. Virtual or not. It doesn't matter."

I'm still waiting for any sort of explanation whatsoever of what exactly DEV_IS is supposed to be and why it is a separate branch.

Ive seen redditors even post the community phase shitposts like Walmart and the coffee
Theres probably some normies that dont care or the discords got hyped up to post phase bad

Maybe I'm coping but that apology sounded apathetic af

I don't like how they haven't scrapped dev_is and still trying to make it look like a real branch
If they accelerate and release a 2nd and 3rd gen of dev_is before jp7 ho boy that is gonna be one of the decision ever.
And if they do gen 2, gen 3, jp7 AND En4, ID4 the roster gonna bloat up real bad.

I still don't understand the real point of Dev_is, but I am assuming it will make more sense when they get 3D? Either way, the ReGloss girls have more than proven themselves as good additions to Holo, so whether it be gen 7 or Dev_is gen2, I don't really think it matters.

I bet someone at the start was trying to push it as a mixed branch with mixed gens. Only to be promptly told it will be dead in the water as first gen. But they had good applicants, free money and time slot for release so they went "fuck it let's ball" with female talents instead

It always malding about Pippa and claiming "Everyone else at Phase is so nice but I can't support a company that has a neonazi."

Its such a blatant tell for how full of shit they are cause Pippa's only the tip of the Phase iceberg.

New DoL rule in effect today. all US corpo vtubers need to be treated as employees and not ICs. just need some vtuber to file a complaint.

Virtual or not.

I wonder if they're planning for Dev_is to be a more traditional idol group, including IRL events. So having them as a seperate branch with seperate expectations from the others would make a little bit of sense. The toned back designs could be because they want the characters to portrayed live by talents or actors. this is just a Rrat i choose to believe in order for Raden to have a collab with some big art gallerys/musems.

But it's such a good series of videos, damn. Mike should get a sense of humor, even if the videos could be construed as not too flattering to her person.

When I saw she was eating Starbucks snackies I sighed because I knew people were going to be pills about it. How irritating.
