/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

The first billion dollar vtuber agency

maybe taiwan really doesn't deserve to exist

>>12396624
what's bad about the take? other than it being a rather long explanation for "youtuber controls a cartoon character".

>>12396624
In China (or taiwan idk the difference anymore) there was a news piece on a guy who forgot to pay attention to his job and caused flooding, and on his screen was Astel Apex.

Soon. There's already a small vocal sect whining about them taking attention away from real people and minorities.

It's tough being the most well known.

>>12396906
>real people and minorities
I don't know if this was intentional but separating them is pure kek

VTubers will never be accepted by normalfags and the sooner you accept that this is a good thing the better.
At the end of the day it's a hobby revolving around giving your money to a grown woman pretending to be a little shark girl for ojisan entertainment.

>>12396906
Thank Yagoo Hololive is a Japanese company.

It's in taiwan, iirc I think it caused an oil leak which contaminated drinking water or something?

>>12396854
The man went on set to talk about vtubers but he didn't even do the least of his research. At one point he talked about how the VAs are replaceable when Kizuna AI should be the first thing you learn about when researching vtubers. He doesn't even know that yagoo chooses chuubas based on how good looking their roommates are.

>>12397056
This is factually correct and there is nothing wrong with it.

>>12397097
Sure. But if you expect normalfags to accept it ever you're out of your mind.

>>12397056

>>12397063
That's a very weird thing for Yagoo to do. I'd honestly prefer if their roommates were ugly.

>>12397056
Some of us don't even do that. Maybe some of us watch Vtubers because it's something that reminds us that there's nice and beautiful things in the world still, that not everything is disgusting and ugly.

>>12396624

I heard awhile ago that it was because cover were planning on revealing their roommates at some point but I don’t know if they are still working towards that goal anymore

>>12396624
they aren’t wrong, tho.

>>12397657
pretty sure one of the reason coco quit was because she couldn't do that

>>12397657
I don't care about the roommates of the girls... but the roommates of the boys better be sexy, or else...

>>12397657
Yeah, this is true. My uncle works as Yagoo's Wife's Boyfriend's Godwife

>>12397331
Then you'll definitely like Nijisanji cause Riku has a fetish for ugly women.

>>12397657
That would be a monumental mistake, people love the anime girls, not real 3d.

Semiconductors aren't a non-renewable resource. Anyone can make them (well, real countries not Africa) but it's cheaper and more efficient to do it all in one place and Taiwan for now is that place. If China nuked the island people would make them elsewhere.

>>12398379
Actually China said that they can make semi conductors by hand, which is way more efficient than Taiwan.

it's funny how being gay is not considered to be marginalized enough now that trans took their place

>>12398699

Just look at them shaming white people.
But letting a Taiwanese calling your oshi ugly is a different matter dude.

Yagoo doesn't want some UAMFBN to get leaked.

>>12398966
I mean. I’m not gonna hate Taiwan just because someone called Gura’s roommate not attractive, Just like how I’m not gonna be anti-American because there’s one Karen said that Gura’s streams were child shows.

>>12397056
Isn't that basically a roleplay?

>>12398379
The fact that semiconductor fabs take a retarded amount of money to start, don't become profitable for years, and deal with very small margins, it might as well be considered a region limited resource.

>>12396624
Let's break it down
>but their appearance is not that attractive
tee hee forbiden knowledge XD jokes aside in some cases he would be right but not all, YAGOO himself has actually said something similar in one of his interviews.
>It doesn't matter how popular you are I can find a person to replace you
Yes and no, there will never EVER be another Senzawa or Kson or Gura or Coco you can't "replace" them as much as try to find someone with similar streaming styles? or wait till they leave the industry completely. Just like how you can't "replace" Japanese Keemstar but if you wanted to do that kind of content you could flourish now that he's been booted off YT (the real Keemstar is retiring with FU money too)

It's pretty sad that the irony is Taiwan alone has all the reason to be involved with VTubing 1. ChAIna incident and 2. Coco (who appears on screen beside Gura pictured OP but hidden by the reporter.

Honestly not everyone on the island is this misimfored as you can see a bunch in the comment section "I'm Taiwanese world please forgive etc. etc." I mean this isn't that much different from the BBC report with Veibe, as for "How long until America" not going to happen we have idiots trying to blame who is at fault for covid, Afghan and what Mr. Potato head should be called and 5g shots or horse serum to care about VTubing.

It was planned back when Iwanaga was still CEO of Ichikara. YAGOO and Iwanaga arranged a deal wherein the Hololive talents would debut virtually, but then move onto real life activities under Iwanaga's direction. However, at some point YAGOO betrayed Iwanaga and it fell through, which is why Iwanaga left Nijisanji to form the IRL idol group SLEE (originally named HOLO).

It was Froot and Veibae since they're British, also it wasn't actually quite "yikes" territory (although close)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9VHuPgZ6NE (for the "yikes" skip to the last ~5 seconds)

Taken as a whole it was actually a pretty positive look into vtubers. They messed up some of the nametags though and called the CEO Froot by accident, but they fixed it in the full version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJksW9PI5AE))

God I fucking hate normies

>>12396624
where's the lie?

>>12400266
it comes back to NPC tier thinking. normies and plebbitors do not have the imaginative part of the brain so they cant immerse themselves and they cant understand how someone can imagine complicated scenarios inside their head, an inner voice if you will.

>>12400099
the fucking seethe

>>12397220
we're consuming media for which we are the target demographic, generally. bronies were obsessed with a cartoon for little girls because "t-the animation and characters are good!" [laugh track]

>>12400431
>you're only allowed to like what i like
never understood the idea that there's something wrong with bronies liking a show that they aren't part of the target audience for. always seemed very "no fun allowed".
>inb4 i get called a brony

>>12400628
the reason people got sick of bronies wasn't because they were greasy, autistic nerds (which, to be fair, they were) but because they wouldn't shut up about MLP and how it's actually really deep and wholesome content and that you DUMB normies just don't understand

this is also why we are this generation's bronies, and why bronies were the last generation's furries

>>12400709
(citation needed)

>>12400628
considering what part of my post you chose to take issue with i don't know how you could ever imagine you wouldn't be called a brony. would you really step up to bat with that same argument if an entire degenerate fanbase sprouted out of fucking pj masks, too?

>>12400781
1) trust me bro
2) think about it: nobody gives a shit if you watch cardcaptor sakura or some shit made for little girls beyond maybe "heh that's kind of weird", the kind of vitriol bronies generated was because they made the thing their identity (just like furries made jacking off to cartoon animals their identity and how holofans have made being a holofan their identity)

>>12396624
Didn't vshojo had an interview just to be called freaks at the end? It's going to get worse when some huge vtuber stream or meme explode on the internet and TV channels start to notice it

>>12400823
See >>12400122, it's actually pretty positive and the news lady is only being slightly rude

>>12400814
>considering what part of my post you chose to take issue with
the whole thing?

>>12400709
Its a bit different. A Brony would have to deal with a normie saying "You know that is just a show for little girls right?" which is a 100% true statement. Even if the brony thought the show is super deep, its still a show for little girls and the Brony just has to cope with that with no real defense measure.

For us a normie says shit like "You know they are just fat dudes with voice changers right?" Its different from the brony situation because the statement isn't true and yet these falsehoods keep getting spread by the normies. That is what makes it worse for me.

being in the target demographic of "lonely men who need to listen a female voice babble about nonsense to keep them from going insane" isn't going to really endear you to the normies

>>12400709
TRUE also the fact they co-opted something that wasn't aimed at them and made it degenerate whereas chuubas are aimed at us and at least understand, if not embrace, the degeneracy

>>12400926

What possesses a person to just post made up shit like this? If you don't know what you're talking about then don't post about it. That's how stupid rumors and misinformation spreads.

Think about it though. Why are they so protective of their past photos and identities? It's because they want it to be a big surprise when they do the reveal.

>>12397056
Yes.

>>12401017
You are insane

Regarding the rrat about yagoo hiring good looking girls or at least not horrifying ones, it makes sense because face reveals get traction, trending, and gets the attention of the masses and big media. And they're usually a let down. See: ClariS
But at least the lives would be interesting with live music

>>12401031
I've only seen 2 that are outright unattractive and 2 that are plain but not quite ugly. The rest range from kinda cute to stunningly beautiful. Now I'm not suggesting that cover actually selects based on roomate attractiveness but its likely simply a case of a general correlation between attractive looks and other positive traits like charisma, intelligence and talent.

>>12398170

This is from a news outlet closely tied to Taiwan's nationalist/democrat party, it has a habit of reporting on completely inane online bullshit and is more biased than CNN and Fox combined. Taiwan news in general is in an absolute state, infamous for doing half-assed reports on trends, pandering, and blatantly pushing party propaganda. Common with TV news in other countries but I feel Taiwan takes it to another level of unprofessionalism compared to western media.

I will protect Gouda

>>12396936
VTubers are entertainers -- all contributions are voluntary, nearly all content is free of charge / no paywall and people give them money because they appreciate being entertained.
The performers are anonymous.

Somehow, this is 'problematic'?

People are addicted to drama and arguing pointlessly, it is so tiresome.

Seiyuus were hired to be seiyuus not idols. Plus it's obvious they can't be the anime characters on stage. (I guess now they can, but during LL and im@s orgins that wasn't a real possibility)

For LL and im@s the seiyuus are idols for the most part and function as such. Seiyuus are in a half zone of idolhood for a lot of these anime thanks to retarded koebutas.

So no its not really comparable

>>12418559
Anon... the whole point of people being vtubers is being anonymous. Having a company reveal their faces defeats the entire point.

I feel like the people who make posts like >>12404934 and >>12411646 don't fundamentally even understand niche otaku shit. I legitimately wonder of they're a normalfag or not. It reminds me of that one 2view who posted about vtuber face reveals on onlyfans or some shit. All those indies outted themselves as normalfags and doxxed themselves just to try and own him. Literally only normalfags are hyped for face reveal streams. It ties into all those no-cam youtubers of old who did face reveals on their gaming vids and got more of a following after.

>>12397220
>>12400709
Careful now, the jannies don't seem to like it when you make this correct comparison

You're talking as if this obsession with never showing your face is widespread outside of Holobrony circles. Idols exist, seiyuus exist, this is all otaku culture and nobody is demanding them to stop showing them to literally pretend to be 2d or fuck off.

>>12421008

This is complete bullshit that emerged as a simple psyop to demonize the Chinese due to current geopolitical situation and get election tourists like you to still play for the leftists (America) while maintaining an illusion for yourself that you're totally pro-White and not subverted to fuck.

The China = Jews psyop has worked tremendously well to get people like you to not only inherently support and defend SJW policies and politics, but to work against your OWN ideology which should be ethnonationalism. China is for all intents and purposes an ethnonationalist empire, and the best refutation of leftism currently extant. In other words, the psyop turned you into a willing defender of the leftist status quo, and by implication into a roundabout SJW. What, you honestly think (((they))) will reward you and other Whites for fighting for (((them))) in any capacity?
