Ami sure is courting some mythical horsies there… I get that she and the dreamweavers treat it kind of like a joke but it takes one
Henry to spoil it all. I hope she'll be fine.
Ami GFE is like trying to ERP with your friend - awkward.

Is streaming actually that stressful or intensive? Not just talking about Botan here, seems like just about every JP vtuber has come back from the doctor's office with something like 'doctor said that streaming is causing me crippling life problems'. Usually it is related to the voice, which is more understandable for singers and people who talk non-stop for several hours a day, but... still...
I would bet the JP members "work" for 80 hours a week or so. Work includes the usual streaming and VA/concert/song rehearsal/performances plus paperwork/meetings/literal labor like signing 100's of cards and training and then they may: ego-surf for things to talk about or network, show off artwork via retweet, check multiple platforms for fan engagement, reply to collab invites/emails/opportunities,
Someone mentioned this on Reddit, but I'd much rather they stream more than being wrapped up in projects all the time. I am just glad IRyS has been able to stream more again and not always have to record songs.
Depends on the streamer. IRyS may like streaming but same with AZKi, she is a performer/singer. Hoping for more concerts.
Lisa had to end her music review early due to feeling bad. She was talking at the end and seemed to be pretty upset, to the point of crying. Seems like she's been stressed plus dealing with some people she thought was close to her being rude behind her back. It was hard to listen to, never one to get choked up but I really get where she was coming from. Lisa just seems like a really sweet girl so I hope she feels better.
Lisa is an amazing type of person but it must be hard to be that open/vulnerable. Plus, she isn't old and jaded so hearts to her.
I am not huge into Kawaii but I for sure respect what they've able to do as a small corpo much like PRISM, Phase, Tsunderia and others. I am subbed to Namiji Freesia from Kawaii but this newer talent is quite interesting. Apparently it is just something about Indonesian women that is my kryptonite.
Sounds like Coco
I wish that Kiara got to put her dance moves to use more often. She's certainly one of the best dancers in Holo and I'd like to see more of that content from her.
I cannot believe that Hololive is just Nijisanji-lite which is just Vshojo-lite. Truly only Talent Freedom™ will save us from Cover's draconian grip.
Hololive without the first few gens would be so bland. Fly your flag Festival.
I'd join Nijisanji, no question. They have far looser restrictions in general and are far, far more lenient with their talents as far as I can tell. Nijisanji comes across as a frat house. Or maybe a restaurant where every one of the staff knows each other and you hear weird noises and goofing off in the kitchen. But the food is low-priced and filling, and even though you know it's not very healthy, you don't give a damn because of the atmosphere and vibe.
Hololive feels way more like vtuber Hell's Kitchen, though all the drama takes place in the back room. Individual talents are absolutely, without question, far more iconic and recognizable than Niji dudes. But they're professionals first and the foremost. They wear neckties and formal suits to work, and you just know that if you leave a comment card with anything less than glowing praise, somebody in the back is going to get yelled at. I envy everyone who has the drive, energy and persistence to make it in Hololive, and it brings of the best and most recognizable voices to the center stage, but holy shit would I not want to work with them.
Oh and vshitshow exists I guess. It's the virtual equivalent of WeWork at this point. Nobody gives a fuck about the company, everyone just enjoys the shitty overpriced office space and amenities funded by retarded investors, and you just known the talent could jump ship tomorrow without even a backwards glance.
Considering there is very little info on the actual working conditions (can't even figure out if Holo or Niji is blocking EN collabs) using such a broad brush is silly.
If I am a nobody I am joining Hololive
If I have a decent PL and a Japanese focus I would join Niji
If I am a successful indie I would join Vsho
