Could someone get me a gif of the glasses Polka waving the lightstick in the new MV? I can't into image formats gomen

>>30962045
It's a nice light song, nothing crazy, but easy to listen to. And it's nice that's it's basically just a love letter to her fans.

I'm in love with a fennec called Omaru Polka

much appreciated!

Please consider giving recommendations on what else to add to the pastebin. I am still looking for more recommendations for new Zains and some live apparitions that are missing. Feel free to also mention anything you'd like modified on it.
Remember to check some artists on the pastebin, get the anniversary merch (sales end September 19th) and listen to Polka's new original song in streaming services!
https://cover.lnk.to/SAIKYOUTICPOLKA

Your oshi's song hits too close to home. Thank you Polkas for supporting Polka.

>>30965408

sasuga pastebin zain

This 35p loves Polka very much and thinks she's very special.

>>30967016
thats why pols are the best bros on this board.

>Polka's deck has no pathetic cards, but it does contain, Polymerization!

>>30967016
I always update it whenever she releases something new or when I find a Polka artist on Twitter.
>>30967197
I don't know about the entire board since I only come here, but seeing that we sometimes receive visitors and even refugees when the board goes fast, I'm confident that this is probably one of the best generals, although I may be biased since I like Polka too much.

>>30967583
Poltunse Miku is my favorite fusion.

Looks like Lamy will have her first Rust stream tonight. Wonder if Polka will give her the grand tour like she did with Nene.

love finding new polkartists through the pastebin

>>30971327
I sometimes find myself conflicted in including smaller artists like that, since most of them just seem to basically just draw Polka sketches for themselves, sometimes not even using hashtags to share their art...
Keep doing your reps Polkartists!

the melody in the new orisong is really reminding me of something and it's going to drive me insane until i find it

>>30972004
for some reason it reminds me of bouken desho desho

holy shit guys the new song fucking slaps and the MV is on another level, huge congrats

>>30972582
Thanks for passing by, Hoshiyomi! Hope our oshis interact again on Rust or do anything together in Shiraken.

she's so cute I want to fluff her tail and hold her she always does her best :D

It's ok, polka forgives you.

>>30973843
maybe she will, but I can't forgive myself

>>30974159
Buy the はっぴー and you'll be too busy mourning the death of your wallet to worry about your own self assessment

man the unofficial cover list in the paste bin is fire!

Come on Zains, the yen is weaker now, the merch is basically at a discount. Get it while it's hot or gamble a bit to buy it when you feel like the yen will be at its lowest.
Honestly it's basically the same price as before for me, even considering that the price went up from ¥12,000 on her birthday merch to ¥16,200

Bros
I was finally able to afford Polka merch... I'm so happy

>>30974671
Congratulations anon, very proud of you. Hopefully you also have a special place to put the Canvas.

Absolutely amazing live!
It even had a narrative which would basically make it a musical polmao

I took my pills and watched the live it was very enjoyable
Polka is rekindling my interest in vtubers

Thank you Polka

>>30974738
Thanks! Although...
I only got the EP... but I'll get the full set for her birthday merch next year...!

>>30975127
The EP is still a good choice from all of those anon, I hope it's a CD or something, I don't have anything to play vinyl...
You will make it anon, I believe in you. Next year you will get both her full set birthday AND anniversary merch. Keep it up!

>>30975285
Thank you Anon, I'll do it for our beloved fennec!

lovely we got a full Polka solo live with other members just there for cameos. birthday live was amazing but it was more so Polka-P, less so Idol Polka.
>>30973688
>>30972980
something came up with family and I couldn't watch it live either. i feel fucking awful but i'm going to make it up by loving and praising Polka with all my heart (and all my wallet) and pray she forgives me. the lyrics to the new song makes me think things are gonna be okay, bros.
>>30974738
the canvas is pretty small, but thats a fucking gorgeous Polka. it's either going right in the middle of my weeb shrine, or right above my monitor so it's always right here in front of me.
>>30972223
for me its the pizzicato line, especially the first half. i can't think if its something from Muse Dash or elsewhere.

I'm so glad I caught the stream live, even if I sacrificed an hour or so of sleep. Catching Polka streams live always end up being worth it as I'm watching them.
>>30975490
It's probably small because shipping a big canvas would be pretty expensive, but still it's gorgeous.
I wish there were more art pieces of Polka, I'm currently waiting for a chance to get the new Polka Sketch but I wish more artists did more Polka artbooks, she's just that nice to look at.

>>30975285
it should be a CD considering it's the same price as other holos' CD merch, vinyls normally cost $22 on the hololive store

Her new song is her best one yet I think.

>>30976310
Somehow I'd never seen this greentext before, but I love it.

Polka's new cover is pretty amazing. Congrats on your amazing oshi.

>try to buy full pack
>debt card declined because price above limit
Pain, maybe just the EP then...

Put Polka live on headphones while I was wage slaving today. Was really good/cool that basically every song was an improvement over some of the musical critique I had when she initially released them as singles (obviously some she can't because it's the song itself that is weak more so than singing). Really nice to see she's still practicing them.

>>31001247
how the hell does that work? is it like an under 16's bank card?
i dunno how you'd even buy groceries etc with a <~$120 limit.

>>31003292
Debit is just US talk for a bank card. But several have limits for no real reason but you can contact your bank to overwrite. Like for example I'm personally skipping out on Pol goods to save up to go to NZ next year and that's $1,500-$3,000 usd that I know I will need to contact the bank when I get around to that as it will just auto decline.

I'm not the original Polka but chances are he just has a shit bank.

>>31003292
It's a full-ass adult debit card, just that purchases in dollars (instead of monopoly money) have a 100~ limit from what I've tried out so far. Credit may have a wider limit but I don't want to become a slave to monthly payments...

>>31003292
Some anons are in countries like Argentina or Brazil. With the bad exchange rate for those currencies to the yen, the price could be more than what they pay for rent or mortgage. Be glad you get payed in USD and not funny money, because everyone deserves to have a chance to get idol merch.
>RIP poor bastards
>Pein

>>31003814
Sounds dumb, I can change the limits on mine on a mobile app at any time.

>>31004273
Same, even in a meme country.
I also thought it was very weird from that anon to use a debit card to buy online. Come on, use a credit one like the big boys.
>>31004044
>Argentina or Brazil
There's a HUGE difference between those 2 meme countries, just see how much their currency devaluates over time compared to the dollar, one is shit and the other one is, well, the argentinian peso. It's still a bitch to pay the exchange rate and having to pay taxes on top of that.

>>31004658
>use a credit one like the big boys
I refuse to become a slave to monthly payments, I'd rather go through the shame of making purchases by bank transfer. my parents were never very responsible credit users and I can see myself following

>>31004044
well, personally i am paid in queencoins of bongland, but i see your point.

>>31004658
I think I probably could change my limit online but I haven't bothered to look at my settings since I got the account in... 2009. Also still have never got or used a credit card in that time, just haven't needed one.

>>30961928
The protagonist of hololive.

>>31003973
As a note, depending on where you live, it is actually a good idea to use your credit card for some things, as long as you pay them off. If you only ever use debit, despite being the smarter option, your credit score will never go up (which is dumb, but w/e)

>>31004949
>Not using a credit card basically just like a debit card
It's just better, in the long run when you need the credit you'll be happy you built it up by using the card.
Also if you have any kind of problems with it (unauthorized use or just getting it stolen) you can just cancel it and dispute charges, a debit card is wayyy more work from what I've seen.
Also you are different from your parents, just don't do dumb shit with your card, ok? We don't want a "Polka with crippling credit card debt" in here.

wait a minute, that Elf isn't NePoLaBo

>>31006525

PolBros Im gonna buy the EP but I was surprised there was basically no other physical music options sold on the site. Its just suiseis CD and probably a bunch of moris wigger music. I don't really need the other stuff in the bundle, but I'm definitely not getting my shipping costs worth with just the CD.

>>31009725
CDs on the official store are i think limited sales just like any other merch, because i assume the overhead/profit costs just make no sense - so they are more sold through typical music outlets. the only things other than limited merch sets, that really stick around as inventory sales, are the acrylic stands.

it sounds like you are not really interested in general merch though, otherwise i can only really suggest the acrylic stands, and the new Polka canvas, if you just want a handful of cheaper items.

>>31010222
While the canvas art is really nice I'm not looking for anything big. The cd is perfect since I'll use that in my car, and I don't really want stuff I wouldn't use or just takes up space, since if its taking up space I have to explain to my wife what it is. I'll grab an acrylic of polka though, thats not a bad idea.

So I already drop this hobby a while ago but your oshi's new og song popped up in my recommendations. I can feel a lot of passion and genuine love went to the mv and lyrics. Overall, its a really good song and I can understand the idea of supporting each other thru hardships conveyed by polka to you zain tachi. Tbh I felt extra genki listening to it and quickly added it to my playlist since I love it so much. So I just wanted to say, thank you for always supporting polka, hopefully your oshi will have continued success in the future.

>>31019768
Thanks for supporting Polka by listening to her song. We are just glad that it brought happiness to your day.

the backpack is pretty nice

>>31023450
Ya it is it's perfect for cons or short trips. See if you can spot secret Zainkun at your next con.

>>31019768
we get the nicest guestbook messages, i suppose it speaks to Polka's soul and the energy she reflects back into the world. have a blessed day, future zain-kun.

I am still a bit confused by "Psykyotic Polka", what did she mean by that? Psychotic Polka? Wasn't she the codependency holo? Did she just change mental illnesses like that?

>>31044180
The JP Saikyotic makes more sense, dunno if the commie subs translator changed that on a whim for the En lyrics.

>>31025609
>secret
SOON(tm) I could be in a polka happi, staff t-shirt, polpeller headband, and backpack.
they'll never know who my oshi is.

>>31044180
It's a play on words, as >>31044341 mentions, the JP work Saikyou means "strongest" or "best". However it also sounds very similar to the English word for Psycho. So, since Psychotic mean someone being a psycho, SAIKYOUTIC POLKA would be Polka being the strongest/best version of Polka, which is achieved when she and her fans are combined.

>>30961928
alright you clowns, im about to make a decision. ive followed your oshi for about two months and im thinking of joining her membership,. but please tell me what to expect, because there are some holos that doesnt really post a lot and i feel like my membership is a bit wasted. no schizo answers.

>>31044180
I just assumed it was supposed to be “saikyou chick” cause i feel like psychotic didn’t really fit in the context

>>31047085
>pastebin
>Reasons to get a membership: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdXo3HuplLQ
In terms of frequency of posts, she does at least once per week, sometimes more (she made one yesterday, 4 days ago, 10 days ago... if that gives you any ideas in terms of frequency). In terms of stream, once (mostly) or twice a month.
It's consistently mentioned as one of the best memberships you can get for your money's worth, so please consider giving it a try.

>>31047380
thank you

>>31047085
i've come to a general conclusion from my experiences and i will repeat it again, i don't want anyone to get baited.
in general, if you are just looking purely at content, i'm not sure there is any holomem whose membership is "worth it". if you compare it to something like amazon prime, netflix, crunchyroll, gamepass - of course it doesn't add up.
however if you really love them and want to support, it will be worth it.

in Polka's case, i think you are getting "more", and more consistently, than other Holo membership's i've experienced, but the majority only matters if you care whats happening in Polka's head behind the scenes.

tldr;
weekly-ish - A diary post; Polka's thoughts and feelings lately, the highs, the lows, and just the silly musings that come to her.
monthly-ish - ASMR. sometimes just a quiet zatsu, sometimes a full ASMR, sometimes a mix.
irregularly - little behind the scenes snippets, bloopers, etc.

>>31044180
Strongest Polka has Psychotic power duhh

speaking of mengen asmr's, I had sleep paralysis or something at least similar (eyes closed but I sort of just "wake up" a couple times through the night then fall back to sleep like a minute or 2 later), I fall asleep to the ASMR a lot so I was listening to it during the sleep paralysis and among other things I woke up to I woke up to her trying to talk while she's crying, but I just gave a quick skip through to all the stuff I put on my phone and couldn't find anything with that, was it the sleep paralysis demons and I just had auditory hallucinations of sad polka for some reason?

>got a call from the bank asking about a "strange" transaction from a japanese site yesterday

I remember having to explain to my old bank that I needed to put money on a gambling japanese website during the Molly.Online promotion but my card wouldn't allow these kind of international purchases, so I switched banks. Fuck 'em, I need to give money to Polka.

>>31050181

Just ordered the anniversary pack cheers fellow Polkas!

had Saikyotic Polka on repeat the whole time on the gym today, it was amazing to pump to!

I just wish that the letter included in the full set wasn't duplicated...but I guess she just has to do it because she sells a TON of merch last time I checked, but it still bums me out.

>>30993146
>touch grass
do tell

>>31055744
imagine partying with these two, fuck.

>>31056572
Sounds like a great time.

ok what classic eigo song would you sing for Polka in a drunken karaoke?
or if you are confident enough in your Nihon...

i can't sing for shit, but my lower voice suits something more blues or country, i'll go for Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
i can do Folsom Prison Blues, but it's not very upbeat.

>>31056572
sound like being a third wheel with a couple

>>31058349
It needs to be something otaku or idol, so she can hype you up while you sing, so it's more fun that way.
No matter how obscure the song is, she will know the lyrics, so any cute idol song would do for me. I'm choosing Coconut though.

>>31047085
Depends on what your looking for in content. As Polka herself mentioned the Polka membership is meant for people who what to see the other side of Polka off stage. It's a more intimated experience and nothing like the crazy clown world experience of her streams.
You will see consistent messages from her about what she is thinking about and future content plans are etc. Some times it's a funny story like Polka vs the dentist.
There is one ASMR members stream at the end of every month. The content and format depends on her mental state at the time. Sometimes its just chatting with you before bed, sometimes its a full on menhera breakdown with sobs and tears, some times she's just teasing you. But its the only place you will get to hear her heart beat, kisses, and her whisper daiski to you. Polka was not kidding when she said Polka and her fans are building a prosocial relationship.

just got home why is there a private Polka vid in my notifs?

>>31060689
She planned on having an after-talk today, but cancelled it as she wasn't feeling well, and will reschedule it later

>>31060782
okay thank you
get well soon Poru Poru~

>>31047085
From my experience with 6 different Holos, Polka is by far the most active one towards her members.
With everything from her daily worries, to kinda dairy-posts and then your monthly ASMR which sometimes is menhera sometimes amazing and at times actually lewd

>>31053425
You too?

>>31060405
I think it's time to put the cork back on the bottle, polka.

>>31061587

is this a Poel?

>>31058349
That Honeywork song about falling in love with an Idol. So Polka can join me

>>31058349
If its gotta be in moon I'll try out Judgement or Cha La Head cha la, thats the only shit i know how to pronounce the words for.I feel like knowing a duet would be ideal for polka so she could join in halfway through. I know some decent shit for that but its stuff in the past 10 years and kinda more poppy.

love psychotic polka bros

>>31060930

It's never too late to start doing your reps. Do it for her.

I considered it, but I'm married (not to polka) and explaining that would only land me in awkward places.

>>31068228

>>31069077
Just show Polka to your wife. So when she fall in love with her both of you can study together

>>31069317
Also considered it, but she never had an interest in watching streams. And even if her highest power level weeb days I don't think she was into idols or anything like that.

I know that life. Granted I did it anyway. And she was extra unhappy about it since she speaks another language that isn't nihongo and I haven't learned that one. But it is what it is.

>>31070976
>Learning a language for your oshi instead of your wife
Umm...based department?

>>31070976
I-I kneel....

I know if I expressed an interest she would be alright with it, but she has a lot of stuff going on that takes up most of my bandwidth to support, mental health, shitty family, etc. Which kinda makes what Polka does a little more important to me, seeing this cute clown helps me decompress after the days done.

>>31072557
You could always just do 3-5 words a day from your phone, just to see what it's like/ if you could do it. I'm glad you're doing your relationship reps though

>>31072557
Heh, sounds like you are me, as I relate to all of that far too well, especially over the past couple years. But I've been a weeb forever, even took Japanese classes in college, so picking it back up was a lot easier than trying to start from scratch to learn another language, especially one with a whole different writing system. And, cliché as it may be, Polka's passion and outlook on life factor into my motivation to not just be a wage-slave potato, so trying to understand her better isn't just for her, but also to help my own mental.

>>31072557
making the effort to look after others is admirable enough, anon. best of luck if you do decide to try it out the way >>31073238

I WILL NOT DO MY REPS
I DON'T WANNA DO THEM

YOU WILL DO THEM
I already signed up for N3 this december so not like I have a choice...

>>31073238
>>31074082
I might give that a shot, it would also be cool to be able to read the 16 volumes of the zatch bell reprints I finally treated myself too since they were taking preorders for the sequel volume 1, and chances of localization look to be in the never ever category. Learning the words would also let me be able to read cards too, so I could just buy the shiny weiss holos I want since english releases are trash price wise.

Is there an ideal app that Polbros recommend for this?

My wife was actually the weeb in collage and took japanese. I only realized I liked weeb stuff in collage, like it kinda came together since growing up there was no real outlet for it and my friends were all normies and me as well to an extent but I would prefer to be able to stay home and play vidya and watch whatever anime they aired on TV. Theres been extra stress lately between work and stuff my wife is working through so Polkas passion has been a nice inspiration to keep upbeat as I do my best for my wife.

related, i have just become a fresh level 3 "looking at squiggly shapes" master myself.
i'm also going to start the Bunpro trial soon to see how that is.
sure, these things have sub costs but they have really good UX design, and handle all the SRS/etc systems for you.

because honestly, Anki was so boring it was killing my motivation and I wasn't progressing very well with it.

>>31076082
I am quite the opposite, I hate cute interfaces like Wanikani so Anki was perfect for me. Bunpro is a hit or miss, though I can't speak about their recent updates since my trial ran out a while ago.
>>31076028
>app
can't quite help you there myself, I try not to even look at my cellphone if it's not necessary but I believe Wanikani (Kanji) / Bunpro (grammar) / Anki (whatever you grab a deck for) have mobile versions

>>31076028
Personally I'd recommend using JPDB.io since it'll show you what % of specific content you can watch/read and I think it's a lot better, but there are some settings to turn off like "enable kanji cards" and "enable initial short term learning period" and switching to "Longer review intervals". This is a purely recognition approach so don't expect any complicated grammar or writing/speaking. Wish you the best of luck!

>>31076082
obligatory warning, I've seen a lot of words where using the made up names/meanings of kanji is not just unhelpful but is a hindrance, so don't place too much importance on the meanings/get in the habit of trying to remember words by the assigned meanings of kanji rather than just recognizing them. Good stuff though, I just hit 10k words the other day, we're all gonna make it!

>>30961950
By the way, you can get the polka sketch2 set, which includes more goodies!
https://www.melonbooks.co.jp/detail/detail.php?product_id=1599458

>>31076570
>>31076810
Thanks bros. I'll give these a try.

>>31079001
remember to pace yourself and to have fun, it sucks to slog through an entire anki deck you don't care about, but getting overwhelmed with cards you made yourself is no good either.
My one hope is to inspire others to do their reps the way Polka inspires me

>>31076810
and now i have another place to check out!
>>31077475
i think i know what you mean, do you have an example though? your sentence melted my tired brain, a bit. sorry.

>>31078106
i wanna buy the c99 sketch1 set and just the polka sketch2 book on its own, since it's quite expensive and i don't really care about the tote bag. though i'm confused, melon books says 'mail order ok!' for one, but not the other.

i can order both with a proxy anyway right?
https://www.melonbooks.co.jp/special/service/mail-bin/
the wording here suggests the "mail order" part simply means they can send it like regular mail (in japan), rather than a courier package - so i assume that doesn't actually matter for me.

>>31079859
I'd suggest you use the "Add to Buyee" extension, if you like to use Buyee. Or you can use Tenso if you use that one.
I use the first one because it was easier to set up in my case, plus I have some other stuff I have some booth orders coming up so I plan on shipping both at the same time. I probably won't get the set though, I didn't find much value in it personally.

>>31080043
yeah, i'm just confused because Sketch2 is "add to cart"/"mail order ok", where as the Sketch1 C99 Set is "reservation"/"store pick up".

hell i'm just going to throw them in Buyee and see what happens, maybe they can figure it out...

>>31079859
I don't have one off the top of my head, but one I remember making me kind of mad with how stupid it was back when I tried doing isolated kanji study was 玄関 (Front entrance) where 玄 is "mysterious" or "secretive" or something like that and 関 is "connection". So if you looked at this word without the knowledge of what the word already means you'd think it was like a secret entrance or maybe like a vague relationship or something along those lines, when the actual meaning is very mundane, not strange or mysterious at all. Slight hamper for this word but there are other words where it'll just be something out of left field as if whoever chose the kanji for it was mocking you

>>31079717
Thanks mate. Reading how other pols are doing their reps is inspiring already. Pols are easily the strongest gang in hololive.

>>31080510
Sorry I forgot to getting to that, you can get this one which includes both polka sketch 1 and 2 (or you can get both separately if you really want to, but putting them together when shipping them with Buyee will cost you iirc)
https://www.melonbooks.co.jp/detail/detail.php?product_id=1547698
In regards of them appearing as "In Stock: In Stock" (thanks Google Translate) I'm a bit confused too, but if you can put it in your cart it's probably good to go.

>>31080598
i understand, the radical or shorthand names they use, yeah.

>>31080640
Polka's only (other) weakness, the English language, will collectively bring all kaigai-polkas together to do their reps. she is powerful.

>>31080928
well i tried ordering the C99 set and Sketch2, so it's Buyee's problem now... oh well if it comes i get a little Polka stand to keep on my desk at all times.

God I want to work in a small bookstore with Polka

>>31129036
Yeah, her passion for stories is great. Would make for a cute little business

i don't deserve Polka

>>31129816
But Polka deserves all of us, and more.

>>31130304
you're right...
so i'll keep fighting even though im not worthy, even though i missed the live and the post-live talk stream, i will make it up to Polka, but loving Polka even more!

also buyee ordered my melonbooks purchases already, that was fast.

>>31130304
Polka deserves the world. If only there was a way to give it to her...

I miss Darake's illustrations...

>>31133514
What do you mean, that one was literally posted today. Or are you referring to his other account stuff he stopped doing?

https://mobile.twitter.com/omarupolka/status/1560324049095516160
Polka is savage

>>31133746
That one was posted a week ago, announcing that they will be a guest artist in Polka Sketch2
>https://twitter.com/akubi_darake/status/1558086639767158785
But they stopped uploading cute Polkas frequently, also the other account getting deleted was sad to see...

>>31125040
so geekjack will get it soon right... ?

also their emails are weird, it says EMS is suspended but that might just be a default message. because i've had EMS shipping here lately.

>>31139577
>so geekjack will get it soon right... ?
Oh you sweet summer child, I am still waiting on her birthday merch (which sales period was +3 months earlier) and GeekJack STILL hasn't gotten my stuff delivered because of EMS too.
Just avoid GeekJack like the plague, they're notoriously bad for taking too long to ship stuff. They're going to take their sweet time getting your merch delivered, just pray harder to Hermes.
Next time use Buyee (or Tenso if you're buying limited goods, Buyee takes a day or so to actually buy your stuff) and take this as a lesson learnt.

>>31139914

It's normal for you to feel like this after these past few days, with her getting 1M subs, the ongoing RUST and her recent anniversary stream, but relax, PolDen is coming later today and in a few days a MV will be released.
It's nice this change of pace, relax a bit anon, no need to rush it.

>>31155893
thank you, therapy-polka, truly.
though i was also referring to holo twitter and /vt/. usually i have to keep a close eye here between my jap reps or playing a game to keep up.

i shouldn't complain, 'tis a peaceful time for rooibos tea and catching up on some archives.

Polka's bum. Or Polbum for short.

She really needs a 3d model. It would make my PolDen immersion so much better.

>>31195416
She doesn't even have a proper l2D like Nodoka they aren't going to go straight to 3D this isn't gen0

>>31195471
>they aren't going to go straight to 3D this isn't gen0
Not with that attitude. If Polka makes the call, she can get anything done in the company.
She already had a L2D though.

>>31195471
Let me dream dammit. Also a live2d wouldn't make much sense for her, since she really only appears in PolDen, which is all done using 3d models.
