>>51805096
Can someone adjust this for inflation?

>money money money money money money money
That's really the source of the seething, isn't it? Stop being poor and jealous.

Honestly I kneel before Gura. Not because of her content (there isn't) but because she has managed to find a way to do literally nothing and have retards all accross the world give her money for it. She's a genius, a one-of-a-kind retard whisperer. God bless America.

Didn't beat the first b-day which is the actual relevant comparison.

>>51805096
This list is incorrect. the highest she made was over $50k from her very first bday stream. This doesn't even have her 2nd highest SC'd stream.

>>51805096
Okay-ish. It's neither the highest nor the lowest among HoloEN, much less HoloJP.
It doesn't matter anyway. Her merchs probably will sell like hotcakes and that's their main source of income by far

You're struggling so let me help you out. You're the only one to bring in USD. comparing yen year over to year is still relevant, and all currencies experience inflation/deflation over time. It's a bit sad to see you call your own argument retarded

>>51806564
>You're the only one to bring in USD. comparing yen year over to year is still relevant,
There are entire departments in investment banks dedicated to exactly that so make sure to break the news to them, they will be so impressed by your sheer idiocy that they might offer you a job as the office clown

>>51806843
Dude... you're incredibly incoherent right now, and you never had a point to begin with. Go listen to a nice song or something. Nobody can even tell what you're trying to schizo rant about. Asking to compare monetary values over year is an incredibly normal thing to do. No need for a meltdown.

>>51805096
This makes nijis/smallcorpos/homos seethe uncontrollably. It's so easy to live normally instead of crying nonstop and they refuse.

Gura repeatedly gets beaten in super-chats since she's been in Hololive. Kiara and Mori gets more than her.
Gura never asks for superchats, yet her merch are always top sellers and memberships remain high.
Sucks that her limited set sold out in both sites within minutes.

>>51805329
sadly he will, Op was born in SEA so they cant help it.

>>51805429
I renewed my membership, donated, and even left a comment wishing her good health.

Regardless of the reason she’s disappearing I just come to be entertained and Gura is the only one that brings that to the table for me. Thinking she’s anything but an entertainer is retarded and can’t be mad at anyone but yourself faggot.

Considering how hard """people""" here were doomposting about all her fans dropping her, pretty good.

>>51805096
She managed to do worse than FlopRyS birthday stream this year (1.75 million yen in supa). Take that as you will

>>51808108
And that reason is literally you. She disappers, sees that donations are as high as usual so she concludes that she isn't doing anything wrong and continues disappearing. You see her as entertainer but still act like cuck which is even sadder.

>>51805096
It's over.

>>51809537

Buuut they're not. Not even close.

>This list is incorrect. the highest she made was over $50k from her very first bday stream. This doesn't even have her 2nd highest SC'd stream.
OP was baiting hard since he left out several of her streams that made far more than her recent birthday. The superchat numbers for HoloEN peaked in 2021.

>>51810347
sincerely asking, why is every post a bait post, is it subjective to each fanbase or it's a general consensus?

I thought it was pathetic that Gura was so surprised by this. Further proves how detached she is from hololive and her own channel.

>>51805096

lol she earned about 10% of that maybe tops the rest is uncle sam, yagoo, and papa youtube.

>>51805096
>Will you ever earn this much by working half drunk for a little over an hour?
Unless I open up a patreon making an adult video game that I'll never finish because I want to milk furries for the next decade- no.
But god I wish I got paid like that to be drunk for half an hour.
I still won't forgive her though.

you're literally expected to be losing money holding jpy, check mate autist

>>51813229
Again, jesus fuck. Look, this isn't hard. USD has been strengthening against JPY recently, because JPY is losing value faster than USD is. What do you call it when currencies lose value?

>>51813447
What does that even mean.
It's cheaper for me to buy yen and keep it in an account for my next trip than it is to do currency conversion using my debit card at the ATM.
Have you ever been to Japan? Cash is required.

>>51814689
>Have you ever been to Japan?
Yes, I live here dumbass
>Cash is required.
Lol no, actually most people use qr codes via paypay to pay for shit these days, but cc is taken pretty much everywhere
>It's cheaper for me to buy yen and keep it in an account for my next trip
Yeah if you want to lose money. It's cheaper for you not be a mongoloid and just get a wise card and convert it on the fly.

>>51814843
>Yes, I live here dumbass
Post your zairyu card then faggot.
>wise card
Retard, that's what I use. You still haven't explained how it is cheaper for me to not prebuy yen and hoard it in my wise account than it is to convert on the fly. I take advantage of great rates now with the assumption that they will be worse when I'm in Japan.

>>51815269
>but cc is taken pretty much everywhere
t. someone who has never traveled outside of a major city in Japan.

>>51814684
It's actually not inflation. Inflation here is around 2%. The reason why jpy is devaluing compared to the US is because the interest rates in the US are so high compared to Japan that it's literally no brainer to buy USD. Cost of goods have remained relatively the same here despite the currency being devalued vs the USD.

>>51815269
>Retard, that's what I use. You still haven't explained how it is cheaper for me to not prebuy yen
Because it's literally going to continue to go down. It has a stop limit at 150 which is where the BoJ just dumps USD into the market to stop it from going above, as has already happened twice in the last 6 months.

>>51815335
1. I live in Saitama
2. I travel to the countryside every weekend
3. I've stayed in the middle of fucking nowhere almost monthly the last 3 years.

CC is fine. You're a fucking idiot if you think people are cash only here. It's 2023 not 2005.

>>51815412
>150 stop limit
Yeah no shit, and you know how many times it's hit that? One (1) time. You know what I did when it did? I bought yen. This is how speculation works dumbass.

>>51815486
>is illiterate too
Please show me where I sad Japan is cash only, retard. I said it's required. Here in the US I haven't carried cash on my person in pushing a decade. In the 5 trips I've done to Japan, every single one of them I have needed to use cash for more than a handful of transactions. Has is, in fact, required. If you actually did live in Japan, you would know this.

>>51815671
Literally the only time I use cash is for buying ciggies at my local lawson, because paying 600 yen on cc is stupid. My CC bill is about 3k a month, my monthly cash withdrawals are less than 10000 yen. It's not "required". I've been to maybe 2 places in the last year that were cash only and they were random ass hole in the wall places.

>>51814684
>What do you call it when currencies lose value?
You think the right answer to this question is inflation? Please say yes so that I can confirm how much of a retard you are.

>>51815671
>Yeah no shit, and you know how many times it's hit that? One (1) time.
Twice actually. So yeah, good job googling shit real fast and failing hard.

>>51815807
Literally does not change the fact that Japan still relies on cash for a not insignificant amount of their business transactions, and that your average tourist is absolutely going to run into a situation where they'll need to use cash, regardless of your anecdotal evidence.

>>51815906
I didn't google anything for that response, that was simply me remembering when I bought yen and the fact that I follow the @jpy twitter account pretty closely, only one time in the last year do I remember it actually hitting 150, so no I don't think you're correct.

>>51808108
It is all about entertainment, which is why I don't bother with her. She doesn't stream. You know who does stream? Mori, Kiara, Bae, and the big bad homo boogie men, Tempus (they kind of have to). Why wait for someone who isn't streaming when I can get entertainment right now? Gura isn't special, she was funny but funny internet autists are a dime a dozen.

>>51811240
Yes, we aware that nijinig using SC because their merch suck ass and tempiss are full of nijinig fan, so they using the same cope. While hologirl always got their highest profit on merch.
That why it easy to identify nijinig, especially tempiss nijinig.

>>51816004
>>51815906
And now I'm positive you're not correct. Retard.

>>51816004
Literally does not change the fact that Japan still relies on cash for a and extremely small amount of their business transactions, and that your average tourist is absolutely going to run into a situation where they'll need a couple hundred yen for the odd temple or hole in the wall that will go 英語わかりません and probably refuse to serve you, as shown by your anecdotal evidence.

FYP

Also this is tell me you've never actually been to Japan without telling me you've never actually been to Japan

Lol some dude ITT posting about being a forex master because he needs 200 yen cash to see the Kamakura buddha

You're continently leaving out the fact that IC cards exist. Know how you charge those? With cash, at least as far as 99.9% of tourists are concerned.
>inb4 iPhone
It is next to impossible to load an Android device unless you have one with osaifu-ketai since google is retarded and refuses to enable global FeliCa. So yes, cash is pretty fucking required.

>Also this is tell me you've never actually been to Japan without telling me you've never actually been to Japan

>>51816714

With my fucking credit card on google pay, like every other person does here.
>It is next to impossible to load an Android device unless you have one with osaifu-ketai since google is retarded and refuses to enable global FeliCa. So yes, cash is pretty fucking required.

Google Pixel gang wins the day. Regardless, you can still register your suica or passmo with the app and load it up with google pay, then just use the physical card.

Why is this so hard for you?

>>51816008
nta, but I simply watch my favorites and *gasp* non-chuubas
This might seem sacrilegious here, but there's other forms of entertainment that are competing with random chuubas
Only a couple chuubas meet my entertainment bar, and Gura is one of them
If she ever retires, I suspect I'd just watch less vtubing in general and return to my older favorites

>>51816888
Retard, you have a JP SKU phone, did you even read my post? Do you even know what FeliCa is? The only people who can do that are those who bought a phone in Japan. I own a US SKU P7P and a JP SKU P3a. Guess which one I can only load yen only my suica with using google pay? hint: it's not the P7P.
You have literally no idea what you're talking about.

>>51816714
Oh yeah and one other thing. Both the IC card charging stations, and the literal electric gates both accept google pay using your cell phone. Even the buses and fucking taxis have it now.

>>51817004
My dude, you can literally open the fucking suica app and just register your card. You don't need felica. Also my pixel is a US pixel. All google pixels have felica. Most not poor people phones have it actually.

>>51817070
Yeah you have literally no idea what you're talking about lol. All Pixel devices past like, the Pixel 4 now support the band (NFC-F) but do not have support for osaifu-ketai. Google has not finished their implementation of Global FeliCa like Apple has. The only way you can get a suica card added to Google Pay/Google Wallet is to have a JP SKU phone. This has not changed. The ONLY device Google makes with confirmed global FeliCa support is the pixel watch (even mentioned in their tech specs), but even THAT doesn't have it enabled yet.
You definitely don't live in Japan.

>>51817284
>The only way you can get a suica card added to Google Pay/Google Wallet is to have a JP SKU phone.
My phone is literally an unlocked Pixel 7 Pro from the US. You don't need to a Japanese phone to register a suica card. You just change your region to Japan in the app store. It's literally as simple as that. I've done this dozens of times for all our new hires, I know what I'm talking about.

>>51805690
>retards all accross the world
Uh yeah about that... nearly all the money comes from the US or Asia, very little from anywhere else.

>>51817284
Also before you hurr durr, but it won't take "US credit card!" to me, yes it does. I've used both a Chase credit card and a HK Standard Chartered card to reload them.

Also you're completely ignoring the fact that you can still literally charge a physical card with google pay literally anywhere. At the gate, at the ticket booths, at the station master, at 7/11, even at restaurants.

>>51805096
Wait, she was drunk? How could you tell?

>>51817681
>Wait, she was drunk? How could you tell?
By the fact that she was streaming

>>51817408
>>51817573
Then you better tell FeliCa Dude about this incredible discovery, because you're the first person in the world to be able to get past the hardware restrictions placed on ever phone outside Japan.

Just to humor you, here's a screenshot of me trying to open the osaifu-ketai app to get a mobile suica card created and loaded into google wallet (sometime I have already tried to do in the past). Wow! Crazy how it doesn't work, huh!

>>51817886
>here's a screenshot of me trying to open the osaifu-ketai app

The osaifu-ketai app isn't a fucking app you use, it's a piece of software that runs in the background detecting IC signals you fucking moron. And for the 1000th time YOU DON'T FUCKING NEED IT.

>>51810905
When they claim that something is the 3rd best when it's not even in the top 10 they are throwing out bait.

>>51818143

>>51818022
>, it's a piece of software that runs in the background detecting IC signals you fucking moron
You have no idea what you're talking about lmao. There's a lot of technical jargon here, so I'm not surprised someone like you doesn't understand it all, so let me break it down for you.
おサイフケータイ (osaifu-ketai) is a protocol that talks to the secure element on a device/card (traditionally, and still today, the FeliCa IC chip). When Suica was first released, the support for phones was a purely hardware implementation, once smartphones came around モバイルSuica was introduced to make supporting all the hundreds of manufactures easier, as this now implemented a web-based authentication system. That is why Apple is able to bypass the need for an actual FeliCa IC and use their own secure enclave. Google has the same potential, with their Titan M chip, but is too lazy to finish the implementation.
Both apps are ABSOLUTELY required, and the mobile suica app literally does not run without the service enabled. (picrel, the app literally prompting you to install the osaifu-ketai service from the playstore)
For someone who claims to have a lot of technical experience with this, you sure know very little about it.

>>51805096

Bad for chumbuds

>>51818392
