/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>79074620
Yeah well that porn guy isn't friends with a janny who also helps him shit up /jp/ to get /hlg/ autists to harass Fauna.

>>79042466
/vyt/ first used it, there was also some inside joke about it that got lost when /hlg/ started to use it. I also forgor

>>79041915
She hangs out at /hlg/ for some reason.

>>79031216
A few unmoderated /hlg/ rejects on /HIRyS/ are not the majority of IRyS' fanbase, let's be real here.

>>79002902
They'll just get bullied back here, even /hlg/ is barely tolerated kek
>>79002935
Yeah, but many were coping that it'd never happen
>>79002950
the best part is the relief of tension as they assumed it died only to get smacked in the face again kek

>>78987385
Nah this was like 2020 still and a lot of the shitters were /hlg/ adjacent, so they genuinely didn't know it was her until she admitted it

>>78987312
Definitely.
It was even better on /hlg/, they were praising it non stop, only to immediately scream in pain for hours when they realized it was Mori.

>>78978132
>hlg is mainly JP discussion most of the time
Why do you lie?

>>78984956
/hlg/ is utterly irrelevant these days

>>78984796
What about /hlg/

>>78963843
I cant imagine spending much time in /hlg/ at all due to tiny amount of holoJP discussion there but it looks like fun if you’re into EN.

why must they do this to me, is hlg not enough?

>>78963843
Yeah /jp/ is probably much more chill at this time. If you blink we're on page 10.
>/hlg/ is a lot of fun to me, but there's so much shit flinging too.
I remember a bunch of fun shenanigans from /hlg/, but the 5chan anti larpers always annoyed me too. I sympathsize with you because I feel similar about a much worse thread.
>i just want to share my oshi
based

>>78963843
Well with 4 new constantly bumping threads, smaller JP-centric generals will have a hard time staying alive. Might as well make a /hlg/ 2.0 here for JP holo.

>>78963044
it's my home board, so i like it there. this board moves scary fast in comparison. /hlg/ is a lot of fun to me, but there's so much shit flinging too. i just want to share my oshi

>>78941295
The faggot was literally a hlg shitposter, ofcourse he is. Hell, he's probably the fucking OP.

>HLGG ARCS/GENERATIONS

>Generation 0
>The Genesis Arc
>Date: Pre-September 2020
>Most popular holo: Aqua/Shion
The first ever hlgg arc was the pre-myth arc. This was when the thread was still merged with hlg on /jp/, long before our forced exodus to this new board.
At the time, post activity was low and threads were peaceful. Posting was almost exclusively about holoJP -- and really whoever was live at the time.
The thread was divided into two factions, those who could understand the streams without subtitles/translations (e.g., the purists) and those who needed to watch translated clips (clip chimps/EOPs).

>Generation 1
>The Myth Arc
>Date: September 2020-June 2021
>Most popular holo: Amelia Watson
>Major events: the founding of hlgg and /vt/
Then came the black ships. The war trumpets. Hololive English - MYTH.
The first ever EN generation and the founding of the first branch led to a great stirring of excitement, worry, and tribalism in hlg.
When the news of EN dropped, hlg was immediately divided into two factions--those who hated the English speaking vtubers as they were "western whores" verse the innocent JP idols, fears of homobegging/anti unicorn behaviour etc, and the faction that were all in on EN for finally being a comprehensible product without clips and translation.
In a sense, this EN vs JP split in hlg was the new form of the EOP vs JOP conflict.
Debuts were met with skepticism. Kiara immediately became the most hated Myth while Ame's debut was similarly lamblasted for being terrible.
Everything changed, however, with Ame's first stream - Superliminal. There, she immediately charmed the viewers to a staggering number of viewers, and instantly became hlggs favourite.
Meanwhile, Calliope Mori was a favourite from the very start with people praising her great debut. However, she would quickly lose that good faith when she would interact with holostars on twitter and with the TT podcast later.
Meanwhile, Gura continued to soar the popularity ranks in the mainstream, and hlgg loved her. Her second karaoke was one for the ages, with 110k viewers tuning in and the thread losing their mind at the incredible music performances.
Things would fluctuate and Kiara would become more liked over time, but this would not be for another several months. Amelia continued to hold her position as the most liked EN with many praising her GFE/unicorn behavior/creative streams/long and regular stream schedules.
June, 2021. The big exodus occurred. /jp/ denizens were sick of the vtubing threads on their board and called for a new vtubing boar d- vt was formed. (hlgg was formed a while before this on /jp/).

>Generation 2
>The Council Arc
>Date: August 23, 2021-July 2022
>Most popular vtuber: Amelia Watson
>Major events: Irys debut, Council debut, Sana graduation, continued drama
Ame continued to have a chokehold on hlgg as we turned the year from 2021 to 2022.
Her movie watchalongs dominated all discussion, with the 'gosling' meme becoming a popular new ritualpost to accompany the GFE she induced in teamates, much like a joi.
Meanwhile, the popularity of 'Gurame' aka the Gura x Ame ship continued to soar to new heights. The 'THEY ARE' ritualpost would be mentioned whenever they would do as much as mention the other. Schizos known as Gurameschizos began to post massive timestamp collections of these moments, with one schizo compiling a 120+ page document that scoured every timestamp of every vod where Ame/Gura would mention or interact with the other, solo stream or collab stream.
Kiara's fame continued to rise. She was soon carving out a niche of very dedicated fans with her regular stream times, long streaming hours, great GFE and community interaction with marathon long SC readings.
Mori continued to flounder, though she had mostly moved on from homos and TT. She still had moments of drama such as her replying to the cuckbeat fanart on twitter.
Gura remained as popular as ever, chumbuddies were almost as numerous as teamates.
Around the same time, drama ensued with the EN managers - ENMA, JENMA, and others.
Then, the rumblings of a new talent had finally given rise to the debut of IRyS--project hope. The first EN vsinger.
This debut was met with immediate controversy. People were unsure of her horrible design, skin shading, how she'd fit in with the rest of Myth, and what a vsinger even was. The Gura vs Irys debates raged, but many complimented her voice and some of her titular songs like HERE COMES HOPE.
As IRyS broke many subscriber records in hololive, hlgg denizens were given little reprise as a new generation was teased. The infamous >a fucking box would turn out to be the Council generation.
The council debuts were met with unparalleled hype, thanks to the trailblazing efforts of their myth senpais. Post activity reached never before seen levels.
Immediately after debuts, two Council members shone among the rest. Fauna and Kronii. (to be continued)

no this is hlg hlgg and #

>>78929656
She fucking wish, write that on hlg, you will get 60 you

>>78902132
Yeah if someone links it to hlg. This is the Promise thread.

AHAHAHAHA JP MEIDO AGAIN! EVEN GOING FURHTER BY DELETING HLG BEFORE PINNING

Has the /vt/ OP pool completely dried up?
I have never been so unenthused and apathetic towards a /vt/ thread since..... /#/.
Hell has /vt/ in general peaked with /ホロライブ / in 2019 and /hlg/ in 2020? Ever since then it's just a batch of forgettable threads after another.

>>78835634
I told the retards shilling her on /hlg/ she was ngmi but they didn't listen.
>muh better an enshit
>muh Myth will ruin hololive
>muh Myth will bow to ecelebs (alright Mori yes but by god Mori is Santa Teresa beside Ollie in this respect)
>kvetching about Goob
Guarantee you those were SEAfags

Anybody else can't even feel smug and superior about being an oldfag now? I was in /hlg/ before EN debuted and hopped over to /hlgg/ right away. I've spent a genuinely incredible amount of time here, enough to learn a language or master a skill instead of watching streams and posting on 4chan. Over 4 years now and somehow I managed to live to see EN4 debut and I still pretty much watch cute girls and post on 4chan every day. I wonder how long I will continue to do this for
