General Thread v3: The Hexagone

[Last Of The Mohicans]

I fail to particularly see the big grift of this beyond positive word of mouth. People making independent fanart/fanmerch without direct connection to the VTuber means that there is no direct financial grift boom aspect to it.

At least that's what I would've said if that final line wasn't there. Ew.

Maybe I'm just becoming more blackpilled ever since I started paying more attention to twitter, but it has all the signs of engagement bait bandwagon. The engagement bait meta is usually in phases. Most recently was "I want to be friends, can we be friends?" tweets, but there have been "Hey how would you react if I followed you?", "I'm looking for streamers I can raid and watch!" with no intent to follow up, etc.

This one feels particularly egregious since it's basically a thinly veiled beg for people to make free fanart/fanmerch in response to Gumpai's bullshit. I guarantee there will be more tweets in this vein for the next several days (weeks?)

EDIT: Also yeah what @Hff201 said

It's not an explicit grift but it is clout-chasing. The initial wave of support seemed like earnest support for Kusa, especially from the Phase girls and some of the indies they've made stuff for since it was a member of their community being targeted; now it's broken out of that particular bubble it's just become easy, shallow retweet-bait for anyone who wants to virtue signal about the new current thing. Pretty much a "we love artists!" round two.

Only that long? I like your optimism!

I fear for what vtubing will become when there's no more standards lol, maybe a sub-genre of twitch streaming with added degeneracy and drama.

A good example of a comparison I can think of offhand, Kson without makeup vs Kson with makeup.

I think modern cameras are horrifically unkind to Asian faces in general simply because they tend to be much smoother and less 'detailed' than the faces of other ethnic groups, particularly Caucasians. I've noticed that non-digital photography seems to treat them a lot better, but the moment you hit them with anything that does image post-processing (essentially making shit up) it gives very weird results that inevitably leaves them looking like Greys. Then you slap filters on top and it just turns into a goddamn mess.

*wants to monopolize male attention*
*has frequent issues getting along with other women*
Oh, she's that kind of lady.

I swear that everything about Cecilia and even EN4 in general is a fucking gem, whoever designed the lil Otomo mascots and gave her the go to do whatever the fuck she wanted with them from graphics mods to actual arts and crafts deserves a medal

Raora is the original artist behind Otomos. She designed the mascots based on a sketch by Cecilia.

A blatant, literal Xitter e-whore supporting Trump?! What bizarro world is this?!

Does she actual care about politics or does she simply choose her views based on what would piss off the most people?

People need to stop using stock camera apps.
