/jp/ - Otaku Culture

2021 is the year of Rin!

fuck off

>>33423795
I recently learn there is an Apex indie Vtuber tournament that happens around the same time as the big one, so if Rin could get invited to next one, it truly would be her year.

>>33424787
*loses in first round*

Aoi is gonna stream right now! Basically a practice stream where she practice singing one song.
https://youtu.be/cxAAidc_0fg

>>33426521
Oh I was just about to ask whether this is the 100 songs stream.

>>33426521
Feels like it's been so long since she uses her Live2D

+1 Byoushin wo Kamu

Well, this turn into a regular Utawaku. A surprise, but one I bring in with open arms.

>if I sing Hungry Monster then there probably won't be an archive, is it OK?
I guess they have a community list of YABAI songs and companies.

>>33426521
Will she sing Ryuuseigun or Kumikyokuu

>>33427268
Hungry Monster is a vocaloid song, right? That's weird.

>>33427268
Oh, fuck, I thought this will be just a normal practice stream, so I wasn't recording. Hopefully, she leaves it up for a couple of hours.

>puts black tea as highest priority on wishlist
>no way to get it for her
I'm sorry...

Aoi... that's fucking weak...

Hana ni Bourei again.

Her PC became a ghost.

>>33427268
Yes, I think they have been coordinating ever since Shimanaga Ena got striked out of streaming rights for 3 months.

>>33428128
Ah, so that's what happened with her. I thought it was weird she wasn't streaming much, as at the time she had good momentum going for her having more subs than Aoi and Rin.

Rin is currently MIA guys

>>33429520
Most likely when to the nearest convini to buy some monsters. She's gonna need them for her Apex marathon.

Splatoon League stream in a couple of minutes.

>>33431836
>>33431871
Good thing I wasn't the only one accidentally posting in the wrong thread. That would have been embarrassing.

Oh well, looks like Aoi still hasn't woken up from her second nap.

Ahogedono...

>>33431705
what's happening to the league now?

SHE LIVES

>>33423795
It's the year of the Rinux Desktop!

Aoi's last twicasting is still up for those who missed it and will be for a couple more days.
https://twitcasting.tv/aooooooi_san/movie/668540539

Let's say Aoi gets pick up by webpon, how much money are you gonna waste rolling into her gacha? Looks like the topmost price for most vtubers is a video message to you only, so let's go with that. An example of one page, below.

https://webpon.net/shop/SFNK/plan/SFNK

>>33445350
None because chances are it's impossible to use it without being in Japan.

>>33445416
Correct, you have to use a Japanese address, but you can get around it by using Tenso where they will give you an andress to one of there warehouses to input when buying items.

>>33445581
Even with a proxy address it's probably impossible to make payments.

>>33445650
I seen people have success with it, so I think it should be fine. If not, no point worrying about it now, I can figure out another solution if when that day comes around.

>>33445350
I don't even know what it is but if it involves spending money on AHG I'm there

>>33446273
Basically you pay five bucks, and you randomly get something from its pool of items. Lower tier items include buttons, mid tier items include acrylic stands, and high tier items, and the most rarest, include exclusive merch, and signed, or a video that is only for your eyes to see.

>>33446448
I understand. I will spend a lot.

More Apex from Rin. This time playing with her fans.
https://youtu.be/FZdGkXjV9Hc

Looks like all that training is showing results, Rin almost got 30 viewers in her current stream.

Rin is looking for anime recommendations, so send them in if you have some, though, limit it to three per Marshmallow.

>>33456206
The narcissism on her that she thinks she has to limit submissions...

AHOGE LOVE

>>33456206
My little Rin can't be this cute!
When Rin cries!
Kill Me Rin!

Rin is thinking of moving to Twitch... which would be a terrible move. Twitch sucks for streaming and puts her at a big disadvantage vs other vtubers and pits her direct against all the Eigo twitch thots.

>>33467732
Yep, except for one gal, I haven't really heard of any vtuber using twitch for streaming. It is mostly e-sports player that use it in JP, so it is gonna be one tough time ahead. Maybe she will get lucky and get notice by a professional Apex player, but I doubt that's gonna happen. At least it isn't a permanent move, and just something she will do on an occasion.

>>33467732
>>33468264
Are videos of the hologirls using twitch slang popular with EOPs? If so the Rin Success Squad may have some work to do...

>>33468335
Not exactly. It's popular for them to say stupid shit like poggers but they just say it on YT. The EOP audience is obviously familiar with Twitch so they freak out. The problem is there's basically no way to get "found" on Twitch it sucks for discovery. And APEX EOP viewers on the rare chance that they find her are just going to hear her speaking Japanese and leave. Vtuber fans will stay to see what the streamer is like even if they can't understand them. But the vtuber fans and community are on YouTube or NND,

PO!

Aoi's March's fanbox post is out, and there's lots of things happening this month. Confirmation that no archive will be release for the 100 songs endurance stream. I'll try to record it all, but with it potentially being a 10+ hour stream there's more room for error. Still, I will try doing it.

>>33473884
>100 song no archive
fuck

Rin marshmallow chat stream (Anime version) is happening.
https://youtu.be/sCRcQ9qleAU

>>33473884
I will be recording it as well anon. I can run it multi site as well just to be sure. Between us I'm sure we'll get a good archive of it.

>A 100$ tier fanbox post was release.
Fuck, and with how embarrassed Aoi was about it, it has to be slightly erotic. The temptation is hard, but I just have to wait till her cover song is release.

>>33474871
It will be released for lower tiers next month. She's just baiting for fun while also saying that no one has the 10k tier yet.

I'm really tempted to go for it. But I'd feel bad dropping it back down in the future unless she continues to make special content just for... me?

>>33474871
it doesn't look erotic I think it's just her with cat ears

>>33475128
Well, that's a possibility, but going off with the recent post in her sub-account it has to be slightly erotic. But again, just wait, a month ain't that long of a time...

>>33475277
Yeah but it might be fun... Call her bluff and be the highest tier sub

>>33475036
She said to not pay for it but obviously she wants someone to do it.

s... sugoi

>>33475360
What song features a lewd catgirl outfit?

wait is this just Rin reading the suggested anime maros? I was hoping she'd read just all her maros

I wonder if she'll read my Chobits suggestion or not. People are weird about Chobits but I don't know if the Japanese are the same.

Heads up, Aoi is doing a chit-chat stream tonight. Also, we are finally getting another member's stream this Thursday.

>>33434892
Atleast Linux has a 1% share of the total desktop market

I don't think Rin even has a 0.01% share of the total vtuber viewership...

Give me ten copies!!!
I wish it was actually a real magazine.

>>33488302

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN9z5R3Y5es
Just woke up

>>33491980
And so did my phone, as I only got a notice five minutes in. I'm here now, and it is nice to hear her voice again.

She's thinking of doing an acapella utawaku on Thursday for members.

Some of these people. I seen them tweet to Aoi, so it should be obvious today is not her birthday. Also, not her Anniversary, as that is months away.

>>33492914
Good to know. Also to those who want to vote in her participatory poll going on right now, the two options are Tetris99 and Mahjong Soul.

I only got in near the end but it was still nice to hang out with AHG for a bit.

>>33492960
Aoi is tweeting confused about the retards as well

Menacing Rin

>>33495662
>You did subscribe, right?

>>33497715
>I noticed you're on Aoi's Fanbox. You know I have a Fanbox too right? Oh you did know? That's interesting. Very interesting.

>>33504475
Cute

The Nyanko Aoi picture is cute and at the same time sophisticated. I don't know why she's worried about it / embarrassed. Look forward to it.

>>33506080
It's called 'the art of scamming otaku simps'.

Rin is releasing a cut-down video of her 100 song stream, and you can vote for which songs will be in it. Aoi will most likely also do the same, as full archive was already stated to not happened. Anyways, Vote below:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfdaBxUJH0HqN5Q5L3yeaMsEUy4jp3Rja2e9XRryk1jxNMU1w/viewform?usp=send_form

>>33506335
good song list and cute donkey ears Rin

>>33506080
Does that mean... You didn't listen to what she said?

>>33506080
At least you seem wealthy enough to afford the early viewing.

>the final boss is the protagonist's old friend

Looks like she bought an ad for Slow Downer. Your money, Aoi...

>>33509909
Damn AHG and Rin are thick as hell

>>33509909
she's built like Dexter's mom

>>33510327
Gotta spend money to make money.

>>33514584
Getting views doesn't really do anything. She's getting double the views that she does when doing utawaku but she only gained 10 subs compared to 200.

>>33514793
if she wanted to grow as fast as possible she'd just never stop singing

>>33514923
That's the thing, she doesn't really care about growing THAT much so the ad buys are pretty weird.

I wonder if she know she's 4chan's idol. Obviously she knows she has a lot of Kaigai Nikkis but I wonder if she actually knows anything about where we're from.

>>33515392
>4chan
>a minuscule sub set of anons from the old /hlg/ threads

>>33515530
She's Green. She's plant-themed.
All she needs is a 4 leaf clover and she could be our official vtuber.

>>33515392
If she did egosa and end up on warosu seeing the /hlg/ threads she wouldn't have understood any of it.

>>33515613
we had a vtuber briefly before hiromoot dropped the ball

I found a really reasonable artist on Skeb and I'd like to get a commission of Aoi done but it's hard to think of a concept. Anyone have any good ideas?

>>33520650
Aoi and Rin taking a selfie together.

>>33520650
Aoi screaming AAAAAAPPPPPEEEEEEXXXXXX!!!!!

>>33515392
She was curious about it last year, but I doubt she ever found out. I try it around that same time, and whatever searches I got was related to Dangaronpa, Death Note, and an EN indie (this one especially in twitter). And really that is for the best for us to stay as unknowns as her channel grows ever more bigger.

>>33520650
Some ideas:

Aoi in plush form, based on that chibi Hiyori made of her.
Aoi cosplaying as an inkling or someone from Apex.
Aoi in a karaoke booth, or concert stage, singing her heart out.
Aoi using her iphone to tweet her daily pohayo.

>>33520988
>>33521219
>>33521351
I was thinking like, Aoi eating a hambaga with onion sauce but I like some of these better

>>33520650
Oh, also, if possible try asking the artist if it is okay for Aoi to use the art as her twitter avatar, and on her videos. Otherwise, she won't use it at all anywhere.

>>33521424
Yeah I saw there were special provisions for that kind of use. I thought it might be good to try a cheaper skeb to learn the process and things like this.

So, Rin is doing her first Twitch stream tonight, I wonder how that will go. Hopefully, more than one person shows up.

>>33521373
The most useful thing you could do for Aoi (or Rin) is giving her an image she can easily use for thumbnails and such

>>33520650
Have them draw Rin streaming on Twitch to 0 viewers!

>>33523963
Just use the print screen button

>>33523992
but if I open her stream it'll go up to 1 viewer

>>33524002
Is it sadder to stream to zero people or one person?

>>33524048
Zero, because at least with that one person he can bring up conversational topics to chat about. Zero people means you are stuck talking to yourself, and by the look of it Rin will avoid this, as she got people following her in Twitch now.

hey, reply to rin's member post...

>>33527169
I doubt you can tell me the contents, but is she hoping for replies, or votes, but ain't getting any. I notice that some of her most dedicated fans are not member, so I can believe it being kinda barren there. Maybe, it is time to actually subscribe to her.

>>33527450
she's reworking her member stamps to make it easier to see. she posted the reworked stamp and asking for our thoughts.
my nip is shit so I don't now what to reply...

>>33527607
She uses google translate when there is an English comment in chat, so as long as your grammar is correct, it should be fine replying to her in English.

Aoi's membership stream in ten minutes.
https://youtu.be/oOs4Nlb1ZYw

The Sushi Pikmin beside Aoi is very cute. I can't wait to see her return back to Pikmin 3.

>>33528317
how many members does aoi have these days?

>>33528773
It's impossible to know but you can figure out the peak milestone from the available stamps.

>>33528773
I remember reading in January that she has enough members to add in another emoji, so by going by google, she has over 100 members subscribe to her.

She is talking about that mush dash stream

I don't speak Japanese so I don't type in her streams

I don't speak Japanese so I type things to her in English and get pissed off in chat if she ignores me

>>33529261
I'd rather die than be an obnoxious English peasant

>>33529062
It's a small comment to today's chat stream, but it brings a smile to my face that she still remember us since then.

>>33529169
Same, I just say hello and goodbye in her non-utawaku streams. I'm studying Japanese to get around that limitation, but it would be a long while before I can fully understand her.

>>33529531
I feel like AHOGE FEVER is a pretty memorable date to her since a bunch of stuff started from it.

Is this it? Am I really going to start playing APEX? Just to participate in a stream. Have I sunk this low?

>>33530289
But Apex is fun...

Rin's first Twitch stream is happening right now...
https://mobile.twitter.com/fuuka_rin/status/1367467033550495751

>>33530311
why couldn't the Japanese be obsessed with R6S or PUBG... I actually like those

>>33530335
don't watch it to keep her on YT because vtubing on Twitch is for ethots

>>33530335
At least she isn't all alone in there, so that's good. I wish her luck, even if I can't stay and watch.

>>33530335
she has a discord server now too

>>33530439
She has had it for a while actually

Oh, Aoi has joined Rin, and even has a Twitch account for chat.

>1080p only
pls I want to watch other streams too

>>33530467
nooooo

>>33530554
Rin has to be Affiliate for you to have the option to change video quality. Yes, it sounds very stupid to not have such a basic feature in all streams, but that's how Twitch works.

>>33530756
Oh, that's why Miko had it. I thought it's something on the streamer's end, which is why I hate watching indies on Twitch.

well we've lost her, Rin planning to stream on Twitch from now on

>>33533309
hope you'll are ready to drop your twitch prime subs on rin... (i dont even have a twitch account but i have amazon prime)

>>33533438
I'll just drop Rin, she's not worth having to use Twitch

>>33533309
Rin, you are breaking my heart! You are going down a path that I can't follow.

>>33533309
She's only going to do Apex there but I don't see the point. HAL streams simultaneously on both and his viewers prefer Youtube.

>>33534166
Well, what's she's doing on Youtube obviously isn't working, so it's worth a try.

>>33533442
>>33534150
Well fuck you guys I'll shower Rin with affection and subs in your place.

>>33537326
Look I get loving Rin, she's great. But using Twitch? That's barbaric.

>>33537337
Literally no worse than jewtube. It's simply altjew.

>>33537356
It's like 10,000 times worse than YouTube. You can't even spacha over there you have to give *very condescendingly* Biiiiiiits.

>>33537326
I never watch Apex streams, but at least on Youtube I can leave a like to show some kind of support.

>>33537398
That's not even true, you can give money straight up they just call it donations.

I've seen vtubers go to twitch with varying success. Well... most end just going back to youtube.

>>33537326
My problem is just >>33530554
I have multiple streams on at a time, so this is a dealbreaker.

>>33537879
What the hell is wrong with you people, you can change the streaming resolution too.

>>33538121
How? Only 1080p available.

>>33538129
Settings > Quality
Christ you faggots must be computer illiterate.

>>33538226
?????
also this anon explained it >>33530756

>>33538261
Guess I'm not in the habit of watching literal whos, thanks.

>>33538291
he says in the Ahoge Rin thread

>>33537326
I'll be there for her, but it only being 1080p in streams is really gonna make it difficult at times.

>>33537228
Her Apex numbers were actually improving with it almost reaching 40 viewers one time, so if she improves more, and keeps up with her current output of streams, there's a chance she can bring in more people coming in to see her for her skills.

>>33541071
>Her Apex numbers were actually improving with it almost reaching 40 viewers
Fucking hell Rin why would that make you go to twitch you menhera woman?

>>33541071
her Mahjong Soul streams do decent numbers over time surprisingly They're some of her most viewed ones.

We can't save her rinbros... She's going to have to save herself

Oh, A waiting room is up for Aoi's new cover song. That's nice to see, as sometimes I miss the premier with how short notice some of them are.

>>33541471
If I remember right, an English fan recommended it to her and her though process was "Sure, why not, it wouldn't hurt to try once or twice." The problem is that JP Twitch community isn't the same as the west, as mostly e-sports and professional players uses it. Not quite the crowd that will follow JP vtubers, unless they are really good at a game.

Damn, ahoge is famous now

>>33545993
Why?

>>33546004
See her fanbox

>>33546183
Good for her. Who's the interviewer tho?

Wait, Rin is streaming right now in youtube. Is she really moving to twitch or is she splitting between those two?

>>33551067
Try reading her twitter.

>>33541649
I said that months ago.

>>33551067
Even in her initial tweet she said it was a test; an experiment to see how it will go streaming on a new site. She never intended to stream there permanently, and it was just an attempt to get herself notice from a new set of eyes. The Problem is that Twitch does a horrible job in recommending you to potential new fans to the point that most people don't know that Twitch even does that.

>>33421815

Rin considering playing Katamari Damacy. That'd be a fun stream.

Rin has a poll up in her twitter page to what game to play next. It is between Ib and Undertale.

>>33559124
Undertale could be the boost she's looking for.

AoRin Apex stream happening in ten minutes. It is a participation stream, but you have join Rin's discord first.
https://youtu.be/DJj2WAfMNv4

Rin deleted all her tweets on her sub?

>>33571590
Yeah.
Maybe a step towards a new Rin.

>>33571993
but I like old failure Rin

>>33572005
But I want her to succeed.

>>33572016
But I want her to do both at the same time.

Aoi's Mahjong Soul participation stream is tonight, so remember to practice up beforehand, if you decide to challenge Aoi to a match.

I notice that Rin did a Twitch Stream after her collab with Aoi, but when I went to check it doesn't exist in her videos. Anyone know if it was just her doing her daily missions, as she tend to delete those afterwards?

Rin is doing another Apex participation stream.
https://youtu.be/G4hWwyev-j0

>>33578252
>Youtube
Make up your fucking mind you ape!!!

>>33575807
I will be joining with literally no idea what a Mahjong even is I just downloaded it

Today was a good day for Rin, she got a couple more people to get her membership.

>>33579306
Well, that's gonna be an eventful game to watch, but I still recommend watching a tutorial on Mahjong, so you don't waste a couple of minutes clicking on everything to see what it does.

Aoi is about to stream Mahjong Soul. Also, her next cover song will premier in thirty minutes, so open a separate tab for that, as she will still be streaming by then.

https://youtu.be/rwFW3b_RJOo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVEgHxPQGHs
PREMIERING NOW

It's happening!!!
https://youtu.be/EVEgHxPQGHs

Fuck, I really love her voice.

And another amazing cover from Aoi. Already listen to it four times, and I can't stop anytime soon.

>>33582274
She does love this song quite a bit.

>>33582322
It helps that it is from one of her favorite anime, plus Gojo, but forgetting that it is such a good song, and Aoi sang it so well.

>>33581799
>>33581802
>EVEgHxPQGHs
>廻廻奇譚 by Eve
Nice

>>33590443
Her eyes changing to Gojo's was such a good touch

Aoi release a new fanbox post, and man did it warm my heart reading it. I am so thanksful that one anon posted her stream link in the old thread that kickstarted her upward boost.

>>33598920
Rin should just be Aoi's manager and assistant.
But I also love Rin the cute struggling chuuba.

>>33598920
Yeah. I'm really happy to help her grow and succeed.

Now we've just gotta figure out what Rin's niche is...

>>33600775
Who ever rigged her eyes to move that way when she smiles is a fucking genius

>>33600910
is it possible Rin did it? Neither Aoi nor Rin list a rigger, just haruyuki_14 as their designer.

>>33602214
If I recall correctly, Aoi's rigger is https://twitter.com/aneshia5963

>>33602316
yeah that looks right, all his rigs have the same problem Aoi and Rin have where their eyes go different size if they quickly look to the side.

>>33602214
Not sure why he isn't listed on her bio, but it is this guy who rig her model.

https://mobile.twitter.com/aneshia5963/status/1276866583600611328

>>33602214
>>33602395
Rin animated herself and her model has this almost jarring change in the shape of the eyes when they're closed between the default and smiling expression. In one the eyelashes are in a downward arch and in the other they're downward and it looks pretty bad if the shift happens when she's closing her eyes.

>>33602561
Could just be common to have eye problems with L2D then

>>33602616
It doesn't happen with Aoi and many other vtubers.

>>33602668
I didn't mean that exact problem I just meant the eyes are probably one of the harder parts of the rig. Aoi definitely has problems with her eyes being different sizes at times.
