Phase Connect General

[Helkar]

I'm gonna be extremely unreasonable and say the announcement is that she's quitting her job and going fulltime.
It probably isn't and she'll probably only leave that hellhole of a place in a body bag, but a man can dream, right?

The autism is only part of her problems. She has major anxiety issues as well as some other medical problems, one of which is a heart condition. She has burnt through a number of therapists and is supposed to avoid alcohol, ostensibly because of the medication she is on however I suspect its also because she can go overboard with the drinking. She has deleted vods where Tenma has had to come in and shut it down.
She has also recently told us that she has been diagnosed with problems with her vocal cords.

Her main problem, apart from severe mental illness, is that she doesn't know what she wants to be or how to get there. As a result, she is constantly changing her plans and struggles to follow through with what she wants to achieve. She was supposed to move to Japan for school but this is no longer happening, probably due to anxiety about being away for so long from her support network.

Outside of her comfort zone Lia is a people pleaser & doesn't want to publicly upset anybody. Always positive when trying to network on social media & presumably behind the scenes. It's not like she doesn't socialise or have friends or is a complete shut in, but it just seems like she is spending more & more time in FF rather than working, touching grass or trying to get healthy so now she is in a self defeating loop.

When Sakana hired her, she was supposed to be the face of phase 1 and I think it weighs on her that she was not as successful initially as the other girls. Personally, I think it is a lot to put on someone as young as her with no streaming experience.

The channel strike really hit her hard and now she polices herself so hard that when she does occasionally yab I worry that she is going to have a mental breakdown. As far as the chat dynamic goes, she said she wants a more positive chat experience & that sometimes the banter goes too far. I'm not sure how that is supposed to work when I have heard her threaten to sneak a hose into a chatter's bedroom and fill it with CO2 while they sleep, or call for an orbital strike to crush chat members homes, and calls them fucktards, morons & idiots. I honestly have absolutely no idea what she wants from us.

So now, she is at a bit of a crossroads with what she wants to do with her content. She wants to work on the idol path and looks at Mint as an inspiration but deep down I think she knows that probably isn't on the cards. She will really need to work hard on her singing but her dancing is probably the best in Phase that I have seen. I believe she can be a great streamer in her own right however modelling herself on someone like Mint just isn't her.

How this relates back to the Clara situation. I think that Lia is smart enough to know that she doesn't actually know enough to have any concrete opinions, which makes her a lot smarter than Clara. That's not to say she doesn't hold loose liberal views, after all she comes from a mixed Californian family with a father who works in the faculty and has been practically raised in the Tumblr milieu.

IF the Clara situation went Chimpcon 1, I don't think Lia would handle it very well at all. She needs to be kept right away from that bullshit so Sakana better be on top if it.

How many lialikers playing FF with her would it take to make her touch grass? On a serious note thanks for the information drop, I really appreciate it and hope she can turn it around. I'd say maybe a fan project could help her to get some direction if done right but that's a big ask on fans.

Thank you for your effort.
So, basically, identity crisis compounded with actual medical problems. Damn, 2025 really is the year health issues are catching up to multiple phasemems, huh.

I've lost count of how many times someone was intended to be the "flagship" of a new gen only to be eclipsed by another member who turned out to be a darkhorse.

Remi is a weird animal. She's constantly on the verge of death from perpetual food poisoning and gives the impression of someone who has the potential to win several Darwin Awards, but then she starts saying based things, revealing that the space between her ears is, in fact, not hollow.

Things like that make me wonder if Remi is just way better at kayfabe than many of the others.

It probably isn't and she'll probably only leave that hellhole of a place in a body bag, but a man can dream, right?

I long ago got tired about wondering how she somehow has Stockholm Syndrome for that black company. Then again I've see it a few times IRL where I wonder if the employee has some secret blood debt to the owner or is being blackmailed.

 

[Euthyphro]

>it's been more than two years since this stream
It feels like just yesterday Phase wasn't even two years old then

If it was super serious she'd be writing it in English I assume, so it's either

1. She's finally graduating from her job
2. She has a new outfit or song
3. Something else random or as a joke

I would agree, but your track record of making predictions like this before every recent Holo graduation concerns me.

We know that whatever is keeping her there is obviously personal, since she has repeatedly told stories of people quitting extremely-suddenly and dumping their workload on those left behind, aka her.

It has been speculated before, and, well, we have no idea how much of her insane stories is actually true. For whatever reason, even the phase dox dump of last year avoided Remi despite everyone else from gen2 being included.

Remi's power is just that strong

What if Wemi is the one behind the dox

 

[Death by Dishonor]

I'm like 90% sure that Airi joked about making a Korean announcement stream recently, but can neither remember the context nor find the stream.

 

[Lurker McSpic]

I vaguely remember airi saying she wanted to do a kr only stream so I hope it's that otherwise I'm gonna fedpost like motherfucker.
I had her monster hunter stream on the background and something of note is that she said she now has 2.5 jobs and that she would use her pto to travel with shiina wich is kinda cute.

2.5? only 7.5 jobs more and she will be an honorary mexican

Woke intellectuals exist. It often seems to me like they are just caught in their heads where everything is relative, and anything can be anything else. You will see them write huge walls of text trying to justify shit. They are disconnected, or you could say, unbased (on reality).

What does that have to do with Wemi?

I think the Not-Clara looping has gotten to a point where people now just think of this place as a "free politsperging" thread.

edit: great news. The Dacia Sandero...erm, Ember has finally had something good happen to her after a rough streak of, what, several months?


whatever happened she's about to tell you about it

I'm saying being based is not about intellectual capacity, because that is what Kuri seemed to suggest. Intellectuals might be more predisposed to become woke, even.

She got a 2-for-1 deal at her local pizzeria.

I can remember quite a few times where she's been pretty down on herself, and it's really a shame to hear it. I've heard her say things like everyone else but her is an idol because she was the only one without a cover out (she ended up releasing her first cover like a week later) or that she sees Pippa as a main character while seeing herself more as a side character or someone on the sidelines. I'm pretty sure I even clipped a few of these moments because I was going to use them for something. Will have to check when I get home.

With the her channel constantly getting flagged, YT withholding her 100k play button (I don't know if this was ever resolved), and some fag at YT support essentially insulting her (See here), I can't blame her for not knowing what the fuck she can and can't do and getting stressed about it. It really sucks to see.

She definitely has the potential to be in a good place for herself with this vtuber thing. She absolutely has talent. Hell, her performance at that Origins 3D concert was a major highlight of the show. Even Sakana told her that his idol dream wasn't dead after watching her performance. I just think she really puts a burden on herself. But at the same time, she really is in quite a situation where it might be hard for her to juggle everything she needs and wants to do all at once.

I really do wish the best for her. I have a soft spot for Lia because she really is fun and talented, but she just doesn't seem to see that in herself, and it's a shame to see. And then add on other things that aren't directly in control weighing her down. I just hope that she can start seeing her self worth a little better because no matter what she decides, she'll definitely have a lot of people cheering her on (even if a lot of Liacons are weirder than her).

 

[RestlessRain]

My baseless speculation is that Hina is doing a redebut alongside the new Phase Invaders. That would explain why she's taking a bit of time to come back (gotta prep debut material) and helps reintroduce her to Phase Connect viewers who haven't seen her for over half a year, and gives her more eyes for when she returns. Oh, and takes better advantage of the advertising spend Fishman is going to do to draw viewers to the upcoming Invader debuts.

Ember update: she might be joining Phase Connect.

Okay, who do we think our third Phase Invader will be?
