rie, the last week and a half: releases a new cover, does long 48 hour birthday stream. does encore 24 hour stream the following weekend.
maro: "lol ur not doing enough"

ok

5m hime recording from the discord with the comment "in regards to recent hime things try to listen to the end without getting emotional" idk where it originally came from

Remember, when the stream ends they are all just women, with their women fears, their women desires, living in a broken world that's short circuited all of us, and usually no one but their fans to dump on. I'd wager that Rie's not looking for anyone to fix her of her situation. She just needs someone to listen.

We should just stop watching vtubers entirely then.

English fluency is a must have now because there's a limit to how many talents the JP manager (papa gorira) can manage at once. There is no point in adding a JP only vtuber to the roster because the numbers are inherently smaller. Chuubas who can speak Japanese and English are pretty common anyways. There are more overseas weebs that understand japanese or enjoy watching JP vtubers than there are actual Japanese people who are aware of Phase Connect.

Sakana is lucky that the two exclusively Japanese talents he hired are good at streaming, have cross-cultural appeal and are basically fine with having a mostly overseas audience. He is also lucky to already have bilingual staff that can do more than just prop up a less productive branch so it doesn't cost him a lot to keep them around.

As a JP watcher I don't feel that the narrative that they're being neglected is true at all. They are probably disproportionately supported compared to the rest of phase, considering that they get high quality merch, in-house art assets, the occasional outside collab opportunity and a dedicated manager which is a situation at least comparable to other JP corpos. They also have very high membership and donation revenue compared to your average JP corpo 2view.

From how they've described it, the concept of "Phase JP" isn't a thing anymore. Iori, Nasa and Michiru are in the same discord as everyone else, sit in the same meetings and talk to EN talent every day.

The only thing I think they need to grow is just more exposure via clips and collabs, but the collab part is all up to them.

The clip part is up to (you).

Damn negro your comment kinda hyped me up to be a clipper for them, sadly I know fuckall of japanese.

The "one guy'd" thing became a meme for a reason. A lot of streamers have this issue of seeing the most retarded chatters. Maros are more direct than some randos in chat, too.

So question to the forum:
Have any of you ever been the "One Guy" and if yes were you trying to be the one guy or were you just having fun in chat when screen person just happend to pick you out and things snowballed from there?

 

[Kalion]

Seoul has raid sirens blaring and a prepare for evacuation order was given over North Korea's latest rocket launch. Any Korean chuuba watchers don't be surprised if there are sudden cancelations.
This is probably just the government being over-cautious, but I'm seeing may people saying this is the first time the raid sirens have ever been used.

Edit: It appears the order has been rescinded.

Is there a story you'd like to share with class, Mister Gallery?

I just scanned the news. Looks like they just launched a rocket to deploy a satellite but the South is being overly cautious. Given the success of the North Korean space program in the past, the satellite will be non-functional, if the whole rocket hasn't blown up in the sky already.

Fuck. I thought it was my chance to welcome a cute korean refugee into my home

The Norks are claiming it's a "space launch vehicle", although I don't recall them ever having a space program.

It's good to be prepared for all situations. Just in case.

Time for Shiina!

 

[Watamate]

Thanks Shiina, very cool

Yeah, it's just like the WoW episode of South Park. Trey Parker was having a meltdown after making the episode and begged the producers not to air it because he thought it was going to be poorly received and was going to ruin South Park's legacy. Keep in mind this was when the show was in its 10th season and he was still having these doubts. The episode went on to become one of the fan favorites and is generally regarded as one of its best episodes.
EDIT: Found the clip of him talking about it

Him and Matt Stone seem like pretty decent people. Pumping like 15 million into a gamble to resurrect your childhood favorite restaurant that is imo unlikely to turn a profit, more power to them. Although now that I think about it, I guess with their names attached it definitely has a better chance at succeeding than before. So if you're in Colorado:

In other news, Neuro-sama confirmed for Brawl. I mean, OffKai.

Is it me or is it really that ridiculous?!
It is getting easier to list who is not at offkai

Offkai is now just the E3 of vtubers.

HOW!!?

 

[chihirogumi]

Hololive is the Nintendo of Vtubers by not attending. Makes perfect sense now that I think about it.

I missed it live, but the Red Army Officer living in my walls reminded me at gunpoint to shill Nina.
