General Thread v3: The Hexagone

[stassy]

Summary merge of the second stream of Yuri Tsunchaka about her Nayuri concert and the round table stream with the liveband :

• Yuri delved more into her role into the concert production : she was in charge of the album production, the production schedule, costume/website/goodies design and the dance choregraphy.
• Usually this is someone else job, but she wanted to have a try at it and get some experiences (aka getting groomed by President Nayuta into being her next slavewage worker)
• How did they choose the name "Crybug" for the concert exclusive Nayuta song : original song name was "Yowamushi" --> litteral meaning it's a bug, it's weak, it's sad, it cry ---> crybug!

The roundtable stream didn't have many funny stories but still had a nice insight on how a live band work on this kind of live event :

• Some songs (mostly the ani-songs ones) were hard to reproduce with live instruments, especially with drums, while jazzy parts are hard to play at all.
• The band has to be careful on its "atmosphere flow" during a live : does it have to be stoic or jumping everywhere?
• The mixer guy has to provide a lot of backup computers in case of sudden failure and usually customize himself his hardware in order to fit the live : in this case he made a RGB keyboard that did match with the scene lights
• Muscle pain after concert is real and has to be taken care asap (ice, spray...), for the spectator it's arm fatigue when holding the stick for a long time.
• For the vocalists they have to be checked regularly and drink lot of water (Nayuta revealed that she was singing around 30 songs per day those days), one of the issue for them is on stage the light and the audience generate lot of heat/humidity and can hit up to 40 C°
• Word of wisdom of the day : "Recording is like a live and live is like a recording" aka you don't have to force yourself during live but during rehearsal you have to be serious as if you were live
• Tickets from live concert only pay for production costs but it has a huge impact on the band morale if it's sold out, profits are made on goodies sold on the venue and later online but also fund the next one.

Vtubing doesn't really lend itself to a healthy lifestyle. Working indoors (mostly from home without any commute), streaming long hours, minimal human interaction, constant food orders, mostly sedentary lifestyle can wreck one's health especially on a constant basis. For indies whose content are gaming/chatting I would guess it's way worse. Corpo Vtubers can have interactions with coworkers/managers and from time to time go to the office/sponsorship work/lessons/meetings/collaborations which may help a bit.

On the other side Vtubing opens access to people who finds normal work difficult due to their circumstances like 774inc's Tsukinoki Tirol with her eyesight problems. Keep in mind this is a clip from before her huge two year break. She outlasted a lot of her colleagues and even the group Animare itself.

Took 3.5 years but she finally got to eat Haneru's homemade cooking. Really happy she's continuing and still streaming. Ichika's 1840 yen SC can also be read as "Iyashi (healing)".

Yeah, that's one of my favorite parts of this medium. Ironmouse and Shondo are obvious EN examples. Morino Kodoku, Schizo-chan, is a bit of a reverse example as she is living a more normal life going to university and now telling her story. She has a blog that updates every Monday if you want to read about her struggles. Still, I think vtubing is a great platform as it puts some distance between her character and the events plus allows her to express herself in a way that ideally invites less baseless criticism.

It impresses me that Tirol can vtube with her eyesight issues. Is that why her eyes are cloudy in the design? I love her look. Her eyesight issue reminded me of another JP that is visually impaired - https://www.youtube.com/@katamenopudding/featured

Reminds me of LorelaiLoch, iirc she's almost completely blind in one eye, don't have center in another, and still decent at FPS.

Sad to see one of the funnier Idol members go down the whore route.
i blame the pissdrinker

I haven't seen her interact with Rye in recent memory, and iirc she didn't really do much coombaiting even when head Jew was obviously encouraging the other girls to. I think this one's just an organic, free-range whore.

So that's who Tooko is. I was wondering who this girl who's showing up in clips was.

Yeah saw a bunch of clips of her and just assumed it was a nijisanji talent lol. She's very cute.

full story is she joined bakery. got abandoned by her mates because they stopped bakery for gang stuffs. Then got randomly recruited by aruran into the pizza store. Meloco also got her career by getting recruited by Aruran.

Because of Aruran hijinks/shenanigans and his "aggressive marketting", i.e. taking out the entire team out to fuck with sell pizza to other streamers, these 2 got introduced to alot of bigger JP streamers and their audience.Tooko stole alot of hearts with how cute she is, and meloco was hella funny.

note that before GTA RP began, Tooko couldnt talk to strangers and Meloco still tried to pretend to be EN. Both end up hitting high viewership and Meloco managed to dodge all of NijiEN drama. Alot of it are still their own efforts, but Aruran facilitated them. Aruran just be handing out careers left and right. Just not his own company.

I'd make an Aster joke, but it seems he only wants the darkie women instead.

Blackula?

for the same reason snipers focus with only one eye.

Honestly, this new Twitter trend isn't so bad. Most are just outing themselves in their behavior.

So what is going on with Menace and her Coni character? I was sure she was leaving Idol ages ago because she was always much more active on her Menace account on Twitter than her Coni account and then she did a full rebrand back in June(?) to become Menace Mamaki along with a new model but then she chose to stick around after Idol was bought out.

Seeing not only the rebrand *and* a second model for her PL just makes me wonder what's going on with the Idol/Brave side of things and her contract.

I get the feeling she's making a token effort with the Coni persona because she likes her genmates more than anything, they seem close especially after their trip together a while ago. From the outside looking in, she seems much more invested in the Menace persona right now.

That's the impression I got as well. I don't think I've ever seen a vtuber with one foot out the door as much as her, nor have I seen a corpo vtuber stream on their PL half as much as Menace/Coni has.

I still like her content regardless of her model/persona but it just feels tiring to follow her idol twitter + YT account, her Menace twitter + YT streaming + YT ASMR + Twitch accounts, and her personal twitter account on top of it all. I don't think she's even in my top 5 most watched streamers either.

Finals season must be over for Moom, then. Hope she did well. Anyone know if this was supposed to be her last year?
