General Vtuber Discussion (V1)

[Pioneer]

AZKi will have her birthday live this Saturday, at 19:00 JST. There will be a members-only encore. All of her previous lives were not pre-recorded, so this one will probably be live too.

I mean being a big spender at OffKai vs having some sort of a spot at Anime Expo definitely looks weird from the outside. It’s like choosing to sponsor a little league team when you could be a vendor at the World Series. If you’re deep enough into vtubers to attend a convention focused on them like OffKai then you’ve probably already heard of Phase Connect and made up your mind about them. Anime Expo just has so many people milling about it seems like a no brainer. Especially so if they did share a booth with Kawa and were next to the booth of hottest chinkshit gacha game in the past couple of years.

Offkai helped Fishman meet a bunch of goals for conventions appearances that Anime Expo wouldn't:
1) He got to showcase his talents with concert performances, meet and greets, panels, and so forth. None of these would have happened had they concentrated on Anime Expo, he would have gotten a small booth and no extras instead.
2) Got to showcase Wonder AI
3) Made good money off merch sales
4) Extremely targeted advertising of talents to people already predisposed to watching vtubers

Sakana chose to be a big fish in a small pond, rather than a small fish at a big pond. Maybe one day Phase Connect will have a large booth at Anime Expo and be an important player there, but what we have right now is pretty good for a small vtubing corpo with limited resources. I think Fishman made the right choice.

Not normally one to share art, but this was too good to not share.

Since you losers are too busy white-knighting a dramatuber in a dramatuber slapfight over Froot, of all things (she's not gonna sleep with any of you

Thank god for that. Best news I've heard all day.

Hopefully he got a refund for the shiina fuck up

While Chumbuds starve for content, Gura enjoyed a date with Okayu, thanks to Kiaras help.

A better translation of the last part would be "Even though I live in Japan, Kiara was more dependable and showed us around. Eh???" Which is just pointing out the obvious at this point.

Didn't expect the Kiara-Gura deepening friendship in 2023 but I'm down.

I don't think Nina will release any kind of manifesto, but it would be interesting to know how exactly the whole collab bs went about. Sayu joined a company too late to know anything about it, but Nina was already in when everyone was guessing and spewing rrats around who blocked who.

If I remember right, Okayu isn't from Tokyo and doesn't necessarily know the area that well? That might be part of it.

Watch it turn out a couple of managers from both sides didn't like each other from some online BS 5+ years ago. Considering Billy Mitchell exists in the world, it's entirely possible they could be childhood enemies or something. But I expect it'll be quite petty.

Sayu: Hey guys, I want to have a stream where we have viewer submitted stories about their bad worker/job experiences. Let me know!

Sayu: So first up is this story submitted by viewer "Schmina Schmosaka!"

Why Pippa will not do shit:
1) Literally nothing to gain from this
2) Shes extremelly nonconfrontational
3) Muumi wont let her
4) She will get heat from twitter freaks for siding with evil racist
5) She often overlooks the flaws of anyone she looks up to
6) It will take time she would rather spend hugging Colgate bodypillow
7) She isn't a moral grandstander for freedom and everything holy, and will not act like one

People pretending pippa is some kween edgelord who will fight for le freedom of speech and against the globohomo for the glory of the free internet is never not gonna be funny. She's a bit edgy and says some controversial shit on stream, that's it.

This.
Honestly from what I saw (and I wasn't really paying attention) phase probably had the biggest presence at that event and was the most talked about, even more so than idol, their biggest realistic competitor, which used jewish gold to buy their relevance, or niji which was barely present or holo which had 0 presence at all.
I think fish made a good decision here.

AZKi's birthday, Hololive Summer, Subaru's birthday and the HoloEN concert all on the same weekend. What a blessed way to start July

Coco's departure was the start of July. Please let this be the month of Haachama's return (should be on summer break now in Uni). Please.

Kiara Twitter space about it. They also went to Karaoke together. Gura and Okayu both sang Ado songs... "I bet you guys wish you could hear them sing Odo (the Ado song)."

There was plenty of cute SameToriNeko stuff in the twit-space, but it started off with her being seriously upset (like almost crying) about not being able to get 3D studio time any time soon for her now-not-happening-near-her-birthday live, which also shot down plans to do a music video and album promotion stuff....

Yeaaah I missed that part. I get it, but everyone is having issues with Lives being delayed, not just her.
