Kaira just complained that Cover converts the Youtube payments from USD to Yen then to Austrian bucks. She is hoping that the with the Cover USA office they'll skip the yen conversion.

No! Shiina! Don't listen to Uruka's fashion advice!

I've watched Uruka's fashion stream, it's probably going to be something like a singlet and faded lime-green basketball shorts (male).

And so ends another hololive open-world game event. It was just a small event that preceeded the hololive New Year's Game Festival but Fubuki delivered an enjoyable event.

Thank you for reading this recap! This event was the perfect way to get back into my recap series. I'm looking forward to the next big hololive gaming event. Going in, I didn't expect my recap to be as long as it turned out to be due to the premise and small scale of the event.
And with that, until my next recap!

@Willemshaven I gave your profile the ability to edit its own posts and add threadmarks so you don't have to pester moderators to do it. Can you confirm if it worked or not?

My speculation: You know what I can see this black company giving Michi an explanation by pulling up an exchange rate chart, showing her the lower "buy" FX rates for the day and putting the calculation through multiple conversions of USD to JPY to USD to IDR and deducting even more charges. Fucking scummy move.

Kaira just complained that Cover converts the Youtube payments from USD to Yen then to Austrian bucks. She is hoping that the with the Cover USA office they'll skip the yen conversion.
I had estimated how the payment flows for a Niji liver in a previous post. Makes sense to see it apply in this case for a Holo talent.

My next guess is Kiara first needs to be signed under an entity like Cover US in order to skip the yen conversion. As long as she’s under JP management they control the finances and exchange rate. I presume this is exactly why Idol and V4Mirai are setup to be under Brave US instead of their JP headquarters.

I'm watching this little chat between Kanade Mimi and Anna, a half-russian/half-jap singer, who are doing a 2man live next month.


Thinking about how there are quite a lot of "Vsingers" who would've been called 'utaite' 10 years ago, that basically do live performances in the flesh and vtube irregularly.
Off the top of my head, AZKi/nayuta's La priere group and the other 2 girls in it who stream somewhat weekly,
Ado is arguably in this category, but she doesn't stream much on youtube anymore (used to do twitcasting more, iirc archives still up).
the VALIS girls of course, KAF/KAIKA, some big oldheads like Hanatan, Hanon and her groups etc.
There was also a recent 'musician vtubers' doing a live band concert in Osaka (which got a bomb threat called in but that's another story).

I have to wonder if "standard" Vtuber concerts are worth the investment, especially 2D shows.
The tech & staff drives up the price, limits venue choices, and you end up with a product that's not really competitive.

Kind of linked, Tacitly Ciel's graduation is right after NTT closes their "XR BASE" thing in Akiba, where Tacitly did a lot of live shows with AR/VR.
Guessing they've ran out of money to pump into advertising AR/VR and it's not generating any returns.

I think that the tech is being driven by the big two considering their respective investments in their studios. Additionally, there are mini studios and plenty of 3D crowd funded lives that allow vsingers/vtubers to put on great events for fans. Most importantly, utaite's are typically good looking. We just had posts about how fat Matsuri is and the JP audience is even more critical so I can see why having a digital avatar is preferable. Additionally, those idol outfits are custom made and quite expensive. Lastly, the shows are loss-leaders, I assume that's true for flesh concerts a well, as the money is in the merch and potentially it's easier to sell 2D/animated merch.

Does she though? Main comment I see regarding Risu is that she does poorly at capitalising on instances where she is in the spotlight. Maybe this is a "recent" thing but my impression is that she's happy in her own space doing her own thing.

Especially with ID in general saying things like the returns on their investments, effort and/or monetary, are rarely worthwhile.
Mainly I am curious about her not singing very much. Karaoke streams are surely free. There are many examples of people showing off their singing in unique ways. From Chima singing anywhere and in any way to Liz spamming unarchived rebroadcasts, I think Risu could be known for singing instead of NNN.

So (e)Sports Illustrated got an interview with Yagoo. Nothing really new but his comments on esports were interesting. Give it a look

As I've already mentioned, she's changed her mind on the Discord situation rather frequently, but this is a pretty official statement that I think would be hard to walk back.
