The appeal is you know she will at least try not to let you down/try to competently do whatever she gets into. Not to mention she experiments with new content sometimes.

She is the queen and without her your oshi, whoever she is would have graduated already, organizing and holding together hundreds of collabs, events and rrat destroyer.
so be respectful faggot

>>2712602
shirakami "the rrat destroyer" fubuki

sounds cool

>>2712008
Her appeal is that she bloodies her bat on low effort streamers

Go actually watch her, she puts in a lot of work, she tries new things, she supports her fellow streamers, she meme's and appreciates being meme'd, she tries hard to entertain her core fans, she is cute, she cares about the quality of her work - unlike some

>>2712008
I like her voice (good luck finding a lot of people able to cover the disappearance of hatsune miku)

>>2712700
what does she get in return?

>>2712008
Frend is just extremely based, nothing more to it
Also being a poster girl for the company, she can't really do gap-moe baits like other hologirls

>>2712659

>>2712827
She is a workaholic, the rrat says a while agl cover basically forced to stop streaming for a 1 week so she can take a vacation

>>2712868
Not a rrat, she mentioned herself that she only did so on management's advice. Even then Fubuki posted short clips throughout the week.

Zhangs fear her. That alone puts her in a special place in my heart.

Bro, early FBK was hard GFE being shy and shit and FubuMatsu being the strong pairing and carrying shit in those early days. Luckily 3rd Gen came so she could slightly ease up and then we got the boom last year.

>>2718262
True, but he said she didn't develop an unhealthy dependence on them.
People start being shitbags and she's pulls some weird crap that makes them fuck off

She is cute, has a cute voice and tries hard.
I want to lick Fubuki's fox pussy

Oh look it's this thread again.

>>2718262
>FubuMatsu
Thank fucking god this died out. FBK didn't deserve a fate of being attached to that menhera. Flare and Sheep have been much better friends to FBK

>>2718587

>>2718347
Her paypigs are corporations because she eventually grew and became the Mito of Hololive since Sora dealt with the idol stuff to help sustain the company early on.
>>2718717
First off, why even compare Bakatare and FubuMatsu? One is a friend group and the other is a pairing. FubuMatsu was absolutely needed early on. Haato's unstable with travel, Aki got fucked up early and Mel had her own issues. Was it awkward abit? Absolutely but Fubuki's a pro and Matsuri was her right hand for a decent amount of time. At least it wasn't as forced/bad as HaatoxWatame.

>>2719172
>At least it wasn't as forced/bad as HaatoxWatame
YES. That shit was forced as hell. An entire ship based off of one silly MC moment is so goddamn dumb. The only chemistry that they had is that they're both super nice to each other.

I want to keep Friend's thread alive for a bit longer.

>>2712008
She's the heart and soul.

>>2712008
She is a leader and fulfills my fantasy of her sitting with execs making decisions on the direction of hololive

she cute
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gu_QbAcj95U

>>2712008
Your first impression was right on, she is blander than Mio. People just like to fantasize about her being some badass boss who controls Cover and could destroy the company if she wanted to. This is their cope to make her secretly interesting, they will never let it go so just let them have it.

>>2717120
But I like her.

>>2726111
She created and inserted herself into Gamers, directly forced Cover to pick a side during the Taiwan incident by putting her career on the line and taking a huge income loss in the process, and not to mention she's made it explicitly clear that she's the canary of Hololive, she's outright stated that if Cover ever tries to force her to do anything she doesn't want to or does anything to betray her trust she will quit on the spot, which means both viewers and other talent can take her departure as a massive red flag and it will negatively affect Cover's image in a huge way and very likely result in the loss of more talent in response, which in turn also makes her essentially immune to graduation barring considerably publicly known screw-up on her part.

>>2726827
okay, but that has nothing to do with her stream's entertainment value?

>>2717120
they loved her, until they demanded she abandon her friends. Then they hated her, then they feared her.

>>2712008
The uniform shows you the appeal. She's like a cute government agent that comes and makes everything right.

>>2727121
Her entertainment value is that she's entertaining. She's charismatic, good at games, interacts well with the audience, has varied content, has intimate knowledge of the culture and how to appeal to it without pandering, and does good bits, there's literally nothing about her job that she's bad at and she's above average in a lot of areas. The only people who find her bland are EOPs (And even a lot of them love her) and contrarians.

>>2713603
Almost all of these are completely wrong.
>not developing unhealthy codependence relationship with her paypigs, making it clear she's not a GFE
Not true, there's been times she tries to keep a stream going for as long as she can just to try to spend more time with her fans. FBK could just make an hour stream a day and fuck off but she'll often do multiple a day instead. She's done a lot of GFE too, some of it is behind her membership but every end of the month she has a stream that is pure GFE (mainly ASMR).
>seiso, not hornybaiting while also telling purityfags to fuck off
Also not true, this was more prevalent in the past but FBK has done some very risqué content. She's a known BL and yuri fan and has some more fetishes like shota or older men. Again, some of it is in her membership but those ASMR streams have moments too (such as the ear biting one).
>chill with homostars due to the aforementioned purityfags shitting
She's just friends with some of them, simple as. She's not trying to smite anyone. In case you bring up the boyfriend stream, she was trying to direct some of the hate Towa was facing towards her.
>still no purityfags dare to shit on her due to being a corporate mascot, they seethe in silence
Not true, she's even talked about the hate she gets in a mengen and is constantly called a corporate husk or slut in places like 5ch and NGA.
>still pretty friendly and try her best to make her streams fun!
Good point.

>plebs arguing that friend is anything but just your friend

Just because friend is sometimes more friendly don't make her anything more than your friend, friend.

>>2727455
You seem to have a very broad definition of GFE. There is clearly a difference between Fubuki's ASMR streams and, say, what Rushia does on a daily basis, despite both similarly faking intimacy with the viewer.
Likewise for the risqué content, she's never gone as far as Marine trying to attract EOPs for example.

>>2727455
really? Feels like there's a grudging respect for her on 5ch, but could just be in the wrong threads.

>>2712008
Honestly anon, I would have agreed to you up until the other day. Fubuki is the Holo that I always wanted to be invested in but was never quite able to make the jump to her streams.

This changed the other day when it seemed like she might possible graduate or marry or something. She was just getting a cat and I was being a sperg, but the point was I realised that Fubuki was just about the most shocking person who could leave Hololive. She seems to really love the vtuber role and her place in Hololive - she's very loyal to and by extention to the fans and the 'ideal' of being a vtuber. I realised I was taking Fubuki for granted, and that to lose Fubuki would be to lose everything. Like hollowing the core out of Hololive making it only a matter of time before the rest it collapsed in on itself.

I've decided to double my efforts in getting myself to watch Fubuki streams, because if I don't then one day I won't be able to.

>>2730408
There's a reason Fubuki is considered the canary. That also means she's that much trusted. She could probably be considered the broadest pillar of Hololive, even more than Sora, or how Aqua and Coco used to be.

>>2712602
>>2712659
>rrat destroyer
You mean like a cat?

>>2727737
If that's directed towards the post above, then you're free to see her that way.
>>2729001
That might be true, maybe it's the schizo in me speaking but I view Fubuki as a teasing GFE as well as a friend. She doesn't do it as often as Rushia or Watame but it's genuinely comforting when it does happen.
She doesn't do lewd things for views but there's definitely moments where she provides fanservice. Also mentioned once she's fine with people using her to シコシコ.

>>2712008
>What's the appeal of Fubuki?
she have good ideas in her chat streams and her asmr videos, for an insectoid she have soul.


here is a small list of her good ideas
she does animal sounds
she play with a guiro or a recorder
she does puns you need to be jap to understand them tho
she does loli, kurakami, and baby
parody other holos

>>2712008
She's essentially the Ryu of Hololive. She's the safe choice for an Oshi as she can offer you a bit of everything from singing, to comedy, to ASMR and gaming. And it's all above average.

she makes motivational videos

>>2731803

>>2712008
She's the best actress (seiyu) in Hololive. When you watch her streamers, you see her literally as a Fubuki, not some anime mask. She's somewhere in between Korone and Okayu or Marine and Luna, from EN - the more energetic Ina. Cute, fun, calm, a real otaku and more simply a FRIEND.

>>2729001
>You seem to have a very broad definition of GFE
This is a boarder issue with global watering the term "GFE" down to shit
They consider a chuuba acting warmly and hospitable to their viewers in any type of way to be GFE

>>2712008
FBK cute and a great senpai

I like her Necrodancer stream. Everyone should see it

>>2712008
She's literally Hololive's best girl and I'm an Onigirya

>>2712008
>>2712008
She is cool and hardworking i wanna be like her
on the other hand i wanna fuck aqua

>>2735539
Based

>>2712008
- Cute AF
- You can really feel her experience at being entertaining during streams
- Collab master

But most of all, she's the spine of Hololive. She seemingly hasn't been afraid to go against the will of the more harmful, isolationist parts of the fanbase to keep more unspoken restrictions from forming. And somehow she's done it all by constantly staying friendly and positive towards everyone. She isn't even my oshi, but there's not a single Holo that I respect more than her.

How can one Friend be so cute?!

>>2712008
Isn't she into puke and cigarette burn fetishes?

>>2712029
oh? her appeal is a video that no longer exists?

>>2712008
FBK is a solid 9/10 for me, the only missing point is her model, for some reason her brow area gives me Neanderthal vibes

>>2747597
The only thing I dislike about her model is that her thighs aren't thicker.

>>2747882
You never see it in fan or official art but on the model the brow area weirds me out

>>2749087
I get you, but I personally don't find any issues with it. My only issues are the thighs' thickness, or slight lack, thereof.
