Spoiler: phase awards autism

Trying to make everyone a winner by creating categories for each person somewhat defeats the purpose and neutralizes the value of an award ceremony. Nontheless this is my attempt at an alternative. I didn't catch all of the phase award thing so i probably missed some of the categories they used that might have been good but whatever.

Airi: most seiso
Uruka: most lewd
Pippa: most based
Rie: most woke
Lumi: most luminescent
Remi: most unusual voice
Tenma: most creative
Yuri: most twitch thot
Michiru: most cute
Nasa: most sleepy
Panko: most pasta
Lia: most unhinged
Iori: most enigmatic
Erina: most unique accent
Shiina: most dangerous outfit

I have not watched all of them so probably only half of these are any good. Probably would be better if they were all based on behaviors/actions rather than less mutable characteristics also. -shrug-

Many monthes of searching, and sleepless nights, I finally have @thhrang face dox.

is that a fricken toxic crusaders character? I have a weird vague memory of loving those as a kid but don't remember hardly ANY of the details of the franchise.
It's a better look than what the robots probably would picture him as:

Like I said, I believe it was due to her ASMR streams, specifically this one:



This vod has 91k views as of the time of writing this post. It's the most popular video on her channel, and has double the views of her next most popular (it's also worth noting that the top 5 most popular videos on her channel are all ASMR streams). This stream took place on Nov 30th and according to Social Blade her explosion in subs took place only two weeks later:

So it would seem that Sava did this ASMR stream and, more than the others, it hit the algorithm and took off in popularity, generating a massive amount of views and the aforementioned doubling of her sub count (I do recall Sava saying this much in one of her streams, but a cursory look through the timestamps of some of her streams after this event didn't come up with any results, so don't take this last bit as anything more than an anecdote). Sava has done another ASMR stream since then, but it did not achieve the same results as the big one, so who knows if it was just a brief flash of luck. It's worth noting that her two most popular videos are Gyaru themed ASMR streams specifically, so maybe that is what gets her numbers.

At any rate, I hope this answers your question.

Holy shit, thanks for the info. I guess the ASMR did it. As long as she gets more eyes on her, she should probably do 1 ASMR a week or so atleast until she grows enough.

End of Lia stream update: Lia's entire room smells like anime girl pussy scent, she's worried about what the neighbours will think about when they see her throwing out hentai-style anime girl packaging and when the scent of anime girl pussy leaves her room, and at least three Phase Connect girls tuned in
(Pippa, Tenma and Yuri) and Yuri was especially engaged in the topic in question, including taking the time to inform Lia about the wonders of vabbing. Oh, and Pippa started her stream the moment Lia was ending hers up.

10/10 stream.

Pretty good stream honestly. I feel like she has been improving a bit while at the same time keeping her streams fairly short and easier to consume or pick up if you missed them.

I can't stop looking at Stanz' tits. I'm not sure what that says about me.

Probably has bigger tits than 95% of the vtuber's roomates.

I think jerma is neat and i like him pre twitch and right now. His amusement park and doll house streams are just as cool as jerma rumbles and tf2 videos.

I don't get Jerma. Honestly, the funniest things I have seen are the Nijimashups.

Compared to remi's voice, Iori sounds practically normal. I don't know what is going on with it, but my gut tells me troon with vocal training. Maybe it's just a weird affectation but whatever it is, it isn't well suited to a business where your main part is based primarily on the way you sound.

e: I mean heck, just listen to it compared to Rie's voice. Rie sounds like a human. Iori sounds like a muppet in comparison.

Iori is weird. She does have a bit of a muppet voice. Is she living in Japan or is she in Canada?

I don't like them calling Airi stupid or low IQ , I know it's a joke and she's certainly the Pon-Queen, but she also holds down a demanding full time job and she's certainly among the smartest PC talents.

Remi has always been a bit of a bully when it comes to Airi despite possibly being the lowest IQ out of the bunch (or atleast thats how it comes across). I think it has to do with how they all treated each other during the months before they debuted.

Can they just show the best shorts? I mean... they're shorts. Also, Pippa and Shiina both had amazing shorts Not enough love my girls

That was a pretty shit short. Not a fan of these "everyone gets a prize" but at the same time im not a fan of fan votes because given the fanbases, a huge chunk of people watch Pippa and dont really watch any of the others. It feels like they planned about 4 or 5 of these and the rest they just made up random categories to hand out a prize. I would rather get nothing or know I got 2nd place in something than get a fake prize.

Overall they could vastly improve it. Include more fan voted categories, include talent categories and even include management categories.

@Azehara You got fucking robbed like a German tourist in a T*rkish neighborhood my nigga.

NotTheo and LowEffortClips deserve any award on the clipping department.

• LowEffort - puts way more effort into clipping than I ever will and he shits out clips at a stupidly fast rate. I wonder if he even does anything else other than clip things. I think it might have to do with multitasking which is something I can't really do properly when it comes to audiovisual media. Not only that but he has also tried to help the other girls with video editing work and include more of their clips in his rotation to get them noticed. Additionally, he also does work on more personal/fan-related content for special occasions. Despite watching Phase since their 2nd week, I rarely interact with the community.
• NotTheo - is Tenma's dedicated clipper and he makes his clips in such a way that they really highlight Tenma's strengths as a streamer. Also when it comes to clippers, he probably is one of the biggest causes for people that did not know about Phase to notice and join Phase.

Anyway talking about clips... clip tax with coomerbait thumbnail. AI has really made it easier to do thumbnails. It is a bit of a summary of the final (and wildest) part of Lia's stream. It's been a while since I did some coomerbait thumbnail and honestly, I have seen a decrease in viewership due to it as much as it pains me to acknowledge it.

 

[Crush]

missed Day 1 but at least I get to see some of Day 2. Though I'm still so disappointed about missing all of the first day

 

[Ｍｕｒｒａｙしないで]

Iori is weird. She does have a bit of a muppet voice. Is she living in Japan or is she in Canada?

I seem to remember her discussing on stream about living in Canada (so I'm not even roommate-posting here) back when I was trying to get into watching Tw*tch vtubers but I might be misremembering. It would explain the very good English accent - for a leaf, anyway.

AI has really made it easier to do thumbnails.

How so? Now I'm curious. Which parts of that thirst-trap thumbnail was made by AI, and which one did you use?

 

[superduper]

 

[kukkia]

Might be late but Kotoka risked joining Nijicancelled by saying "you fucking retards" on stream. If this VOD disappears, that's the reason. She later apologized.

How so? Now I'm curious. Which parts of that thirst-trap thumbnail was made by AI, and which one did you use?

The nun's body is AI, and the torso is full AI. Before I would have to look in one of the many image databases and try to find a pose or a photo that would match what I wanted so that I could edit the face or body to match the talent. Not only that but those image database sites are full of porn. Often I would have to get 2 or 3 different torsos due to that and then stitch them together to create one composite image. Same thing with arms and hands. It would take me upwards of an hour to actually find the right photos and then about another hour to actually edit them together and make them look passable.

Now I can use the exact tags I would've used on those image database sites but instead of searching through thousands of images to try to find the right one I can just specify what I need in terms of body type, pose, clothing and art-style, add "very short hair" to the prompt and get something very easy to work with (no loose hair strands falling over the clothing to later have to edit out). Cuts the image search time to about 10 minutes (instead of 1 hour) and the editing down to 15-20 minutes.

Spoiler: Example of Images generated VS looking for images on an Image database website.

Once I wrote the prompt (which usually takes about 2 minutes at most) I just generate shit. Each image takes about 5-10 seconds to generate. I pick the one that I think will work best.



Using Gelbooru (Sankaku is way better but the cunts limit the number of tags you can use). If too many tags are used, images are often not tagged properly and it greatly limits the results you get. I only used 4 prompts and despite many of these tags having over 10k images, once you start linking the categories together the image pool greatly goes down. At that point you have to limit yourself to 2 tags. I wanted wet/sweat so I would probably have to go into that category to search through thousands of photos to get one that MIGHT match what I want. Even then, you might get a skin color that doesnt match so that's extra work in Photoshop to get it to look good.

 

[Nenélove]

I'll take the Nene Husband over Nolan. At least no risk of opsec loss

Beside, Nolan got too many oshii that I could remove their face.

Uhhhh, ackshually she has a thong on in both, so it is not fully naked. And she's a thousand year old something blah blah anyway I don't know.

As for voting; I do appreciate Nolan's hidden rage, Nenelove's hate for Nijisanji, Reticule's obsession because it makes me feel like my own obsession is not as bad as it actually is hope (Edit: haha, frickin formatting, cannot put an emoji in parenthesis I suppose "( )") , and Thhrang obviously has experience with a broom and mop. So it's a tough choice.

Why am i suddenly a candidate?! I will let you motherfuckers know that if i win any sort of office or position of power i will establish an authoritarian theocracy with my wife as our goddess, so you Yamanbas better keep that shit in mind and begin praying to your new government mandated oshi. I promise that Nolan is getting taxidermized and set in my office as a rare specimen, and the nijifags are getting deported to a re-ed camp. Just being honest from the get-go, i don't like getting people's hopes up.

 

[superduper]

I'm guessing they're just making sure every girl wins one award at least.

It's literally communism, Fishman is a CCP shill confirmed!

maybe a schizo theory but i swear she has been cryptically roommate posting a lot recently and i think this is her way of saying yuni is going to be the one to call into jim's last call in stream

I hope so, come on Yuni sing the song too!

Edit: This is the song Jim requested Pippa to sing, with the hard Rs specifically

 

[MornLurker]

I honestly wouldn't mind getting it for you, but I've got no idea how looking at the ticket site, or whether I could do so anonymously. It'll probably be up on torrents anyway, but I can't be fucked with those.

I have an idea where to look so don't worry, niconico has always been a weird site to navigate so I'm not really hoping for much
Also, I wanted to prioritize archiving the remaining yugo VODs first once I could use my PC leisurely again so even if I could get it somehow the reupload wouldn't be after a long while

Related but someone over at twitter wrote a guideline on how to buy the ticket if anyone here is interested in watching the rest of NJU program

Spoiler: pictures

 

[kukkia]

Oh I guess some site did notice it. I haven't seen this website before.

 

[superduper]

I found an autistic twitter thread on one of Pippa's posts. Not sure if I should post it because it mostly has to to with Rackets but I'm certain some of you will enjoy the cringe so I'll post it anyways.

 

[kukkia]

The Rekieta thread over at the homeland seems to have turned against him but honestly I'm not patient enough to read up about the latest lawtube drama.

Honestly I dont know either, all I know is that proctor broke and then people start finding candidates to take his place for shit and giggles
