Onolumi and Jorunna celebrate Guild Wars' 20th anniversary

You're sounding like an unicorn here not gonna lie. Yeah the guy is an obnoxious little shit but so far, none of the girls have told him to fuck off and whatever work ethic he has seems to have earned my nigga fishman's trust enough to have him around the girls. I don't understand this pearl clutching when like half of the girls are into incest and other weird shit. If you really wanna complain about inappropriate interactions you should be more concerned with agenmata, you know, the dude who made like 20 pages of hentai of the company. Same guy who many girls still interact with and encourage to make content, that even my nigga fishman comments on too
There's also the fact that maybe the guy is a raging homo and in classic femoid fashion none of the girls look at him as a predator.

In my view they're using him until he becomes disposable, I can't see anyone being comfortable with being sexpested like that, it makes male vtubers look normal in comparison. Imagine if I was allowed to sexpest anyone I drew fanart, made clips or merch for.

Agenmata made that stuff for himself, it's different. If I tried to explain it would be something like: Agenmata creates for his fellow audience members, luwud creates to impress women.

Archive of Luwud's post / alt. archive

We've talked about this ad nauseam in the Pippa thread but since it's spilling out here I want to emphasise just how poorly keeping Luwud around reflects on Phase-Connect as a company.

He is not just a random fan. He owns a company that has an occasional working relationship with Phase. He has sold officially-promoted Phase merch produced by his in-house artist, and has attended company dinners with Sakana and the talents. He is in a position where you would expect a degree of professionalism, at least in public-facing environments like his social media accounts and the talents' stream chats; yet he manages to make the average /vt/ thirstposter look civil by comparison.

He has riled up Phase "antis" by vagueposting about meeting the girls irl. He regularly makes sexually-charged comments toward them, as "ironic" foot fetish posts in their chats and now unambiguously telling Shiina he thinks she's hot, in public, where everyone can see. Twice this week alone he has posted sexually provocative Pippa material (merchandise of her underwear and a nude illustration) on Twitter, then superchatted her to bait her viewers into looking at it.
Allowing this kind of conduct toward his talents is a failure on Sakana's part, as it shows a lapse in Phase's duty of care toward the young women working for the company - both by making them deal with Luwud's borderline sexpesting in the first place, but also by giving ammunition to the deranged rrat-peddlers who will absolutely take notice of the fact he has privileged permission to hit on the talents in public.

Random no-names have been banned in the stream chats and Discord for far less egregious behaviour.

Holy shit I didn't realize that he has an actual working professional relationship with Phase I thought he was just a deranged Phase fan

I disagree here. Agenmata always maintains a level of distance, i don't actually recall him ever thirsting for any of the girls in either model or IRL form the way luwud does constantly.

I don't like Luwud as much as the next poster, but what's he actually done to any of the talents that's worse than what any of the other talents at Phase have done to eachother? Talents lust after eachother all the time, say stuff that wouldn't be appropriate in any other professional environment, we've had art and content already made or commissioned by the talents that's very risque, never mind all the lewd content by other people they repost on Twitter.

I also suspect Luwud's behaviour is quite different in real-life - he's in a public setting, in view of a half-dozen plus talents, as well as PC staff and Sakana. It's easy to talk the talk when you're looking at a computer screen, but people can behave quite differently when talking in real-life. I could buy the argument that Sakana might be neglectful of talent considerations, but Luwud's also meeting with Phase Connect management, and I'm struggling to believe that Muumi, Cece, or Aiko, or talents like Tenma would not get Sakana to fuck Luwud off if he was a problem in real-life.

Luwud is still an insufferable femboy though and I could stand to see much less of him.

 

[lakyus]

Let me repeat myself from the last thread
"Vtuber you like fleshposts = she is just a silly billy who dindu nuthin"
"Vtuber you dont like fleshposts = SHE IS FOR THE STREETS, WHORE!"

I like Shiina and I think she's displaying whore behaviour here.

...Nothing, but he's not a talent, is he?

That is entirely plausible, and, as of right now, i maintain my opinion of him as being obnoxious, but not malicious.

Muumi, Cece, or Aiko

Aiko doesn't strike me as an assertive type at all lmao, other two though - yeah, Muumi gets shit done as evidenced by talents, and Cece, judging by her appearance, very much has her shit together.

 

[Saturnus]

Both?

Sorry, I made a mistake.
Watagashi Unou/Yuuka is my oshi. Only one oshi I'm no whore.
Mint Fantome is the oshi of myself from a parallel universe that I channel with my schizo wizard magic. He also only has one oshi (being Mint) and is still not a whore.

Hope that explanation helps.

I'm doubleposting because this is important: you guys remember when I (we) jokingly said how Loki opened the gates for fleshposting maybe baiting an audience with their real life assets, right?

Well, look what was posted today

It seems that I was, in fact, correct. Not a stretch to say this is her working on her GFE by giving form to the human behind the model.

Can we have another "vtubers?", fellas? NeneLOVE is vindicated and it's your fault.

Fixed (kinda)

Completely unbelievable otherwise.

A tad worried because I believe she could take some self-esteem and break out of her shell a little. On the other hand, I don't want Joru to whore out. This is really funny for now, hope she keeps it in this anime fanservice style.

No matter the outcome: with the

I think it worth sharing the Hololive merch situation on the main thread. Apparently, Hololive is making their merch in China and shipping from there. The tariffs Trump has implemented on Chinese products have put a huge extra cost on them for US buyers:

So this implies she has democracy sausage...

Okay, context - Australia had a federal election today to decide who is going to be running Australia. Some polling stations run free sausage sizzles, where you can get sausage with bread and sauce and onion, but Mako didn't get her sausage (a legitimate tragedy). I've not heard the phrase "democracy sausage" before, but I think the meaning here is apparent.

I guess supporting women doesn't get you sausage. Which makes sense, because actual women don't have sausages.

I had no idea aussies ran bbq's outside of polling stations but it seems so obvious now i think about it. They should pair it up with a VB before you go in to foster the aussie national pride.
