I love Houshou Marine.

>>24712441
that's pretty cool.

>>24712441
I don't love Houshou Marine.

>>24712441
me too

>>24712441
Me too.

Do your shukkou reps

>>24672773
Nope, me too.
>>24689597
Me too.
>>24712441
Wow, same.

I'm going to marry Marine in 2027.

Can I get an Ahoy?

>>24721015
Ahoy!

>>24721015
AHOY

I don't want to numberfag much but shit, Senchou is the Holo with the highest subscriber gain these days.

>>24721206
only if you do creative accounting

>>24721249
I should have clarified of HoloJP, it is obvious that the new HoloIDs are going to have the novelty buff

>>24721398
ID is more popular than JP in general

watch her maware

>>24723775
The movement of those hips is hypnotizing.

I know Marine has a driver's license but she doesn't drive, but if she wanted to buy a car I wonder what kind she would buy? Something flashy like a luxury sports car, or something more discreet like a four door sedan or something much more economical but still functional like a K-car? And what brand would she choose? Something domestic or foreign?
Regardless of the model the color would be Most likely dark red i presume.

inb4 voice is shit again - announcement next week
it's like we timetraveled back exactly 1 year...

>>24730680

>>24730726
"dont jinx it"?
no need, there won't be streams anytime soon anyways...

>>24730680
Senchou...
It was logical that the work would pile up in all this time off plus the events of the following months.

Interesting, is there anything scheduled for the near future or is this likely for something unannounced?

>>24733045
senchou's birthday is next month so recordings should be starting about nowish
Also there's probably going to be a summer event of some kind so she might be recording for that

>>24733092
Her birthday is late July, isn't it? Though last year she did say that June and July are particularly busy because of the amount of events happening. AZKi's birthday is also in July, good chance Marin will be invited, like she was for so many events around this time last year, despite her throat already being fucked.

>>24720648
M-Multi-rod fishing?!

>>24733889
That anon who said we doomposters were going to be BTFO due to Senchou's supposed full recovery, will look like a big retard when Marine develops throat problems again at the end of the summer.

>>24732083
and the hamster-wheel keeps rolling
obvious way to get out is to not take more jobs, simple as

>>24736357
excuse me, it would be "simple as" but she just so happens to be neck-deep in debt over the music video...

>>24736454
Unfortunately Senchou put herself in a corner with the Unison and Marine Shukkou videos and who knows how much she still owes for the production of these and how much time she has to do behind the scenes work and sponsorships to end up paying for it all, I just hope her throat supports better all the big workload she has ahead of her which I imagine is one of the reasons why she said she won't do as many streams as before.

>>24736762
>behind the scenes work and sponsorships
first of all, you got to have viewers for sponsors to pay, so you can't do that offline.
and I can't even remotely entertain the idea that Cover is actually paying her more she could get from ad revenue.
(mind you she earns roughly 250k USD/year _after_ middle-man cuts)

>>24737785 + we are simply running out of excuses here why she isn't streaming, she should just come out with it that she has no intention on streaming anymore before gachikoi's balls turn from blue to black, because that's when they run out of patience and it's not gonna be pretty

>>24737877
anon she already said why she isn't streaming in that members stream

>>24737921
10 streams a month is just not a lot at the end of the day, especially for someone like Marine who usually doesn't do long streams

>>24737921
well I'm not a member, I wouldn't fucking know
because duh, streamer 101: keeping viewers informed

one fucking job...

>>24738041
if you're not a member then you have no business complaining about it or making statements like
> she should just come out with it that she has no intention on streaming anymore before gachikoi's balls turn from blue to black
like you are one

>>24738072
> you have no business complaining
elaborate then, gimme me facts that change my mind
>like you are one
absolutely right, used to be.
But that doesn't change the outcome

>>24736134
You need to work on your disguises a little more, Marineschizo

>>24738041
it's exactly what you might think it is, she's just scared the nodules will come back

>>24738400
well if she's so scared, why not cut down the studio hours?

>>24738455
corporate pressure I bet

>>24738455
bills still gotta be paid

>>24738527
that's on her for getting pressured
I've had 2 co-workers renegotiate working hours after work-related injury, it's not big of a deal for adults...
>>24738600
streaming pays bills too

>>24738701
streaming is more hours and generally more work than studio stuff

>>24738701
ichimi hugbox her, she's always going to be incentivised to try to keep her coworkers and company happy over us as a result of that

>>24738819
anon not two months ago she was talking about how afraid she was to take a break because she's afraid of being forgotten, that's the whole reason why things got so bad to begin with

>>24738856
yeah well look at her now, 10 streams a month til what was it, december? maybe if her numbers decline she'll rethink it though

>>24738748
What? No it's not. Maruyama alone had the entire main cast recording for a whole day.
Streaming is maybe 2 hours preparation +stream length which is like 2.5 hours on average for Marine.

>>24738383
I'm not the schizo, I unironically love Marine and it's the only reason I'm still by her side but if I'm honest my patience is running out, I understand she's afraid of relapsing in her throat condition, but at the end of the day she's a streamer that doesn't stream because she's doing all that behind the scenes shit, I don't feel entitled her to stream every day but these long seasons of content droughts really suck especially when shes the only chuuba i watch now.

>>24739159
have you conisdered watching her friends?

>>24739159
at this point you just can't expect her to fill your free time with content on her own, might need to find more stuff to do

>>24738748
you really expect her to do <2 hours of work when she gets back home around 10pm from studio?
humor me, what does she do for the rest of those 8 hours? mind you, all these leave-arrive times are on her twitter so I'm not making shit up
>>24738856
>afraid of being forgotten
bullshit excuses I was referring to...
>>24738987
Maruyama is also recorded for one day every 3 weeks, what happens in those 20 days in-between?
>>24739159
assuming anon wasn't bullshitting and she's aiming for 10 streams a month, that's perfectly acceptable schedule for many streamers
problems is, I already know she can't manage that

>>24739241
The honeymoon period is kind of over for me with the chuubas, I don't feel as attracted to watch other vtubers as I did a year and a half ago, the only reason I only watch Marine anymore is because I really like her content and admire her work (both artistic and entertainment) but if she takes too long to post new content regularly I start to lose enthusiasm for what she does especially when she has to record all those projects for Cover instead of spending at least a couple of hours with us a few times a week.
It's the curse of Hololive the more popular they became ironically you don't see your oshi as often as you used to, because the corporation forces them to take all those stupid non-streaming jobs.
Now I understand why so many anons took the indiepill this past year.

>>24739368
>what happens in those 20 days in-between?
Other recordings that take the whole day.
Also this was about time efficiency for paying the bills and these studio recordings are clearly not very efficient at that.
>you really expect her to do <2 hours of work when she gets back home around 10pm from studio?
Nobody expects that. It's a choice between studio or streaming and going all studio means slipping into irrelevance sooner than later.

>>24739699
>all those stupid non-streaming jobs.
it's not that alone, there's a visible line on talents who make sure studio jobs don't cut too much into their streaming time, so there's a motivational factor involved for sure.

She's married now, isnt she? That would explain why she doesn't have time to do shit other than work at the studio and do house wife stuff.

>>24739911
>Other recordings that take the whole day.
elaborate, I'm not familiar that any other projects currently that would take that much time.
3D lives take time, but those are far and few.
Senchou hasn't made any appearances on main channel shows either, so can't be that

what is it? because I'm not seeing or hearing anything from outside media where she has made appearance either

So what is keeping her so busy?

>>24740229
>So what is keeping her so busy?
Nothing. She's simply not working.

>>24740299
Gotta wonder how she's spending her time though

>>24740513
Dating.

>>24740559
specifically me

>>24740299
I'd say working extra hard, trying to get good takes with that sandpaper voice.
And you can probably see the cause-relation issue here

>>24740708
I wrote this

she's an extremely successful (and horny) woman in her 30's with a shitload of free time. Of course she's dating you delusional retards. Probably had sex with a bunch of different guys already. I personally don't give a fuck because they're probably all gigsoy japanese men. on the other hand if she found a sexy overseas guy to fuck i would kill my self.

took a look at what the 5ch thread was saying, mostly they seemed sympathetic to all her recording obligations, and lonely/sad that they don't get to see her
a few people still demanding more streams too though
one dude is like
>if you said 10 times a month then stream 5 more times already. Is it just me or is it always like this where she makes promises that she later pretends never happened
another is like
>people in this company who actually stream just keep disappearing. If Marine's gotten better then she should stop going to recordings and actually stream
another
>she's never had any real motivation to stream anyway.
another
>based on her tweets I'm thinking there's only going to be 1 more stream this month
>I get that she's busy but man, I wanna hear her voice you know?

>>24741730
She hates japanese men and only dates foreigners.

>>24741835
She really should capitalize on her throat getting better right when so many heavy hitters are taking breaks.
Though to be fair the schedules for the recordings were probably done a while ago, and since she doesn't want to risk it, she can't exactly cancel them now and focus on streams instead, she has to fulfill her obligations.

>>24741835
>people in this company who actually stream just keep disappearing
amazed nobody is pointing out this is bad for a company that has business model built on streaming audience.

Unless they are actually starting to believe into their own Idol bullshit...which sounds so sad

>>24742261
should, but wont
and those obligations will never stop rolling in, so effectively waiting for the right time that is never

>>24742310
>Unless they are actually starting to believe into their own Idol bullshit...which sounds so sad
What does this even mean?

>>24742310
who's gone in total anyway? Aqua, Shion, and Marine have been streaming a couple times a month for ages now, Pekora and Suisei and Korone on break. Are there more?
I guess ichimi aren't in this situation alone anyway

>>24742379
Sure, but if she can better plan them going forward, she can balance things in a more healthy way. I'm sure she cares about this too, seeing her channel's growth fall way behind her plans from July last year. マリン出航's reveal should have been the 2 million celebration, but even being delayed she had to do the awkward one-off "song reveal concert" event. A new song with an expensive as shit MV as the announcement for a regular milestone concert makes a lot more sense, especially when she was hinting that the 2 mil celebration project would be even more expensive than Unison back when she first released it, obviously talking about this song and MV.
No matter what rrats people want to discuss about her lying or not enjoying streams, I think everyone can agree she's a business woman who cares about her brand, and as such she's definitely aware of her channel's performance and the things needed to boost it.
So it's not that I'm discussing whether or not she's being honest about her feelings in the last members stream, but I don't think she'd be straight up lying about streams she's planning to do, even if in truth she hates doing them. Lying about enjoying something you have to do is par of the course for entertainers, lying about doing those things at all will just erode your brand.

>>24742442
Blindly thinking they will have 100k audiences for concerts if they stopped streaming and focused solely on music content.

Trust me, their shows aren't that good.

>>24742953
I find your lack of faith disturbing

this is why Marine thinks she can take plenty of time off
>>24738323
she's the most successful vtuber in the world this month by median ccv
there's no pressure to go hard if you're the best in the world when you're coasting

>>24742997
and also one of the strongest in sub gain aside from the new debuts in ID

>>24742822
it's not about strictly outright lying, but more about talking about doing X and Y and never following through.
as far as I can tell, she hasn't made any effort in past 11 months to get back to streaming(just keeps repeating empty promises and pushing goal markers)

I am the most patient ichimi.

>>24743134
what do you do with all the free time you've had since Marine stopped being a regular streamer?

>>24742970
for a while, sure.
but there's nothing keeping them relevant between the events

>>24743178
I watch her friends

>>24743178
I stream.

>>24743178
I started playing games more again. Almost stopped when chuubas were taking all of my free time. I'm ok with this.

>>24743246
which friends?
>>24743277
what do you stream?
>>24743299
which games?

>>24743331
Fubuki, Botan, Kanata, Noel, etc etc
I mostly just watch whoever's streaming really

>>24743331
I stream retro games. Streaming is really fun and I seem to have a knack for it. I should’ve started years ago.

>>24743331
Currently doing a slow replay of Sekiro with the Art of Battle mod and alt tabbing to look up kanji all the time. Pretty fun.

>>24742953
The shows are good because of the familiriaty built through streams.
I believe they actually would have an audience even if they stopped streaming, but it would be a completely different audience.

>>24743466
and a whole lot smaller too.

Musicians don't stay relevant for long these days
Just look chart toppers from last year, at least half of them have retired already

>>24745736
SENCHOU'S FAT ASS

Working on a Marine game

>>24746826
nice

>>24746870
cool, what kind of game?

>>24746870
Ooh, nice, give deets

>>24739159
You are the schizo*

>>24749323

>>24741730
At first I didn't give a shit if Marine was single or not, then I became a retarded gosling for her and now I can't help but be filled with rage and jealousy at the mere thought of some random noodle dick motherfucker was or is currently enjoying Senchou's sensual body, groping those big tits, licking that delicious pussy, squeezing those fat ass cheeks, kissing her delicate lips, penetrating her over and over again while holding hands and maybe cumming inside her raw, fuck, shit, cunts, just thinking about what some motherfucker would do to my Senchou makes me want to rip my cock off with my bare hands and step on it for being a stupid fucking pathetic retard who fell in love with a woman who I will never even set foot in the same country as her.
That's why if it's confirmed that she's not single I'm going to have to stop watching her altogether, the jealousy would literally kill me, I know that's very selfish of me because as someone who loves Senchou I would want her happiness above all else but fuck it's just that I can't, I'm sorry for being a terrible fan.
I'll go to take my meds now.

>>24751505
You are a random noodle dick motherfucker.

>>24751547
God I wish, at least I would be closer to her and who knows maybe I would have a millionth chance to be with her.

It would have been great if Senchou's Relax time figure would have had a thong (like picrel) instead of the shorts she is wearing but I guess Cover didn't allow the figures to be more sensual than they should have been.

>>24751505
That's really weird. I'm going to marry senchou in 2027.
