/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>3247825
Vtubers have no input on what they’re going to stream you mong. Cover is managed by the most creatively bankrupt types on the planet so their genius attempt to broaden their audience is to have their models fuck around in Duolingo instead of doing something interesting lol

i've played this on repeat for the past 8 hours.

I'm pretty sure the first one to do a major Duolingo stream was Ame, then following that Uto did a lot of Duolingo streams and made it more popular.

They all play the same games at the same time usually because they just got permissions and it was the same in this case, they need permissions to stream apps too

>>3247825
I think it was Uto but I'm not sure

>>3248282
How does she balance it on her head like that?

>>3251903
She's very strong.

Uto was the first I saw using that format as far as I know which makes it ironic since she gets all that crap of being a leech when they copied this idea from her.

>>3252006
Uto is doing a Duolingo stream RIGHT NOW. Did she see this thread?

>>3247825
Wasn't it Noel? And she did it because she had an interaction with Gura and wanted to understand her better afterwards? Or at least it was correlated, since she started streaming it not long after.

>>3247825
Noel

>>3248217
I'm so glad I took the indiepill.

>>3247825
Annoying Orange

>>3252485
Naw, Hololive hopped on the trend relatively late. Before Noel, a bunch of smaller indies, Uto, Tomoshika from VOMS and a number of nijis such as Hoshikawa had already been doing Duolingo streams for a bit.

They've been a thing for ages how fucking new can you all be

lol lurk moar

I think the earliest is Ame in September 2020 but it was only one stream then others took it and ran with it until it came back to hololive and boomed there too

I like Temma's approach to it, he takes written notes during it if he misses things.

>>3247825
Tne bird

>>3254591
I thought Sara Hoshikawa was already fluent in English like Haato?

>>3265399
>like Haato
Nah, hskw is actually fluent.

>>3257641
I do that when I see sentences I like, such as "Saya mau nasi dengan ayam goreng." For some reason it causes me to memorize them.

>>3265667
I enjoy the fact that she's fluent but never has much opportunity to use it because Niji chats aren't infested with English speakers trying to hop on the VTuber meme. I've sat there for hours and not seen a single English word uttered in chat. It's paradise.

>>3247825
They were all paid to do it. Being this new.

>>3265399
>Basically she's baby

To my knowledge, this elf has yet to do a Duo stream

Opinion discarded

Some people say Uto but Ame streamed Duolingo 3 months before the first Uto VOD

>>3276513
>Ame streamed Duolingo
This got me started and have been doing my daily reps

>>3275671
You're kidding, right? You literally just linked one.

>>3277291
Yeah, I have to thank VTubers for introducing me to Duolingo. I genuinely had no idea there was a free website out there that let you practice a language like this until I saw them doing it. I know, it's not a perfect tool and you're not going to learn an entire language just from Duolingo, but it is useful for practicing vocabulary, which is sheer memorization through repetition. It's certainly better than the nothing at all I've been doing for a while.

>>3282047
just do anki for vocab

>>3282088
HOO
HAA
HOO
ANIKI

Haruka...

Ame seems indeed to be the earliest one. Some nijis/indies did a few streams around Oct/Nov (Amamya, Ririsya and probably some others). Uto went very hard in Dec and popularized it. Chances are the Ame stream actually inspired her since she's a big Ame fag.

>>3288287
Has Ame ever even acknowledged Uto's existence at any point? You'd think she'd be itching to do a collab like all the other same-artist VTubers.

>>3288477

She was getting spammed by retards asking for a collab. What she did was honestly a godo thing (even if calling her cousin is kind of dumb) since the spam died down on both ends. EN management is also quite overprotective so that might've played into it as well.

>>3257290
>>3287714
I just looked this girl up and she has a running English translation for everything she says in the corner at all times. First off, how the heck does she do that? It even correctly translates words that don't exist, like Cradily. Second how come nobody else does that, you'd think the other people who want a bigger overseas audience would be all over something like this.

>>3288690
That's smart, you've got to treat these people with kid gloves because they morph into antis at the slightest offense and start shitting up your chat even harder. She didn't even say Uto's name because that would validate them.

>>3288783
I think she uses something like DeepL? But I have no clue to be honest, it seems like its something only a few bother with, namely chuubas interested in an overseas audience that don't know enough English, but just enough to post somewhere on Reddit to advertise.

They're partnered you numpty.

>>3247825
After watching Nene's lessons I'm hooked on this program. It's very helpful.

>>3299134
Me too, but I'm also hooked on Nene.

>>3248063
What madness is this?

>>3298810
It's probably one of the enterprise solutions like Microsoft Azure. It doesn't seem like text to speech is being used so you can't just use text translators like deepL without some level of speech to text. Obviously I'm not able to confirm what she's using because it is expensive as hell. And I have no knowledge of their accuracy

>So, which vtuber was responsible for starting the Duolingo trend?
Who else?
