Absolutely nobody should be surprised about this outcome.

I love Fubuki!

Too good.

>>62697122
Cute, she really knows how to put fubuki's concept into photography. No wonder she's a big Fubuki Otaku.

My wife is a gacha addict

>>62700563

I love Shirakami Fubuki with all my heart

>>62695579
I always thought it was bit of a joke but is there actually some truth about her being a gacha addict?

>>62707554
In the latest Marvel shill stream they were asked what they consider an insignificant amount of money. The others went for something like JPY 200-300, but Fubuki said JPY 3000 and justified it by saying that that's about what a ten-pull on a gacha game would cost. That is pretty telling.

>>62707802
3000? I could get decent meal with that. that also makes me think how loaded she is with money if she considers that a pocket change. I mean she is not poor by any means, no hologirl is. Then again addicts don't really think if they can afford it or not.

>>62709066
I believe Fubuki doesn't waste her money on big fashion clothing or tech, her pc still struggles to play apex and certain games. She seems to be the kind of girl that only puts money into her Otaku hobbies and nothing else, so she may save a lot of money.

>>62709066
Here's the time stamp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-KVfHQRonM&t=2505s
I'm sure she can afford it. There was that big question and answer stream she held about a year ago where she was honestly answering difficult questions (the archive turned mengen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrS3dXh5KuI)) and she was asked if she was satisfied with what she is earning. Her answer was basically yes, it allows her to support the kind of live style she wants to live, buy what she wants and hang out with her friends without needing to worry. She was also asked if she buys expensive fashion brand products or furniture and the like and she usually doesn't, she might spend a bit more on a bag if she really likes it or high quality stuff that lasts longer, but usually splurges on figures or gacha instead. I believe she has also mentioned a couple of times (I don't have a source at hand) that she tends to save the money that she receives from her streaming activities (superchats, memberships) and uses it to improve her activities, e.g. buying new equipment, games (possible for song covers etc? I don't really remember). So I guess that means that her sponsorship money alone is basically enough to let her live without a care.

Where would you place a tied up fbk
1. Couch
2. Chair
3. Bed

>>62710031
On my bed, but would make sure to give her a chair or set a bunch of pillows so she can sit properly.

Has fbk played outer wilds?

>>62711626
I don't think she did.
It'd be amazing. It's my favorite game

I love you, Fubuki!

Awaken horny friends

>>62720601
I'm always awaken

>>62720601
Has Fubuki said her stance how she feels about being lewded? I don't think she minds pic related but where she does draw the line? Or is she out of sight, out of mind kind a person

>>62695475
I'm a Fbk fan, whatever they are called, but I just recently discovered she have be funniest karaokes and have been bing watching them. Cutest thing in the world.

>>62721902(me)
>I'm a Fbk fan
I'm not, I mean

>>62721902
I'm constantly conflicted on wanting her to genuinely try her best whenever she does a karaoke because she has a great voice and they're rare or wanting her to go complete shitpost and go off the rails with whatever she's singing because of how funny they can get.

>>62721844
The latter. She actually talked about lewd art in the same Q&A stream I linked above. She doesn't really like seeing it and doesn't want it in her tags but inevitably ends up seeing it on occasion because she follows a lot of artists or because people retweet it. She just tries her best to avoid it. I'm pretty sure she has also mentioned on other occasions that she doesn't mind us indulging in that kind of art because it's going to happen either way, but asked us to keep it contained to somewhere where she can't see it.

>>62722317
That's the "official take"

>>62710031
I'm putting Fubuki on the table because she's my meal!! ペロペロ

>>62723297

>>62722317
Thought as much but I also don't think she minds most pictures that get posted here since those are more like sexy/hot instead lewd. And come on, that outfit did not really help the matter.

My friend's thighs are making me horny...

Let's play a game, find the sukonbu

Good night friends

>>62734072
I miss her...

Morning, Friends!

>>62707554
She’s Japanese, anon. Being a gacha addict is a national pastime.

>>62722317
I find it hilarious that this is the same stance as Suisei, yet one of them gets shit posted as being some omega prude and one doesn’t. Though some of the shit Fubuki does in ASMR probably helps there.

>>62747083
I think part of it is also fbk tends to act shy about it more than anything. Like when she has to use her 3D swimsuit and does her best to avoid the camera.
Suisei has made it clear for her it's more about her branding. In the case of her swimsuit, she had outright said she wasn't going to use it on stream, though she did seemingly get forced to by management for at least one stream.
I'm fine with both ways, I could understand some people not wanting to see porn of the character they embody.

>>62747083
>>62747211
In addition to that, she's also not as strict and consistent about it to be fair, some of her outfits are pretty lewd by design, she does the K cup bit pretty often and occasionally retweets risky fan art as well. Even her anniversary goods are kind of lewd this time. She seems okay with it for the most part as long as it's not excessive, while Suisei is seemingly very strict about it. While they are kind of similar, there's a bit of a different nuance between their stances. Also, isn't this pretty much the default stance most of them have on the matter except for the few that actively encourage lewd art and have a separate R-18 tag?

Good morning, friends!

>>62747431
>while Suisei is seemingly very strict about it.
She’s really not, she just wants to sell herself on talent rather than sex appeal. One of the streams she randomly joined with Okayu and Subaru during this year’s Mario Kart arc was pretty good for seeing how she actually feels about that kind of stuff, she just doesn’t want to see it in her tags. I’m pretty confident she is well aware that sometimes less is more as well, like playing into the fact she was the only one covering up the stomach in the recent 3D dance practice stream.

>>62749587
Fubuki really liked to use the formal outfit. And I'm not sure if she ever said something about covering her skin. I'm sure there was something. She usually picks her costume fitting to what's right for the context. I've noticed some other Holomen have these sloppy outfits you would only wear at home to have it comfortable. It's kinda new to her to have it but it also brings the new theme of not taking things serious right now.

>>62695475
Bump

I wish the Shirakami Road Show was more frequent...

>>62752048
I wish it was always on the weekend. I think she said she wanted to watch the rest of the episodes this weekend, I hope I'll have time to catch up on the first half that's starting momentarily by then.

>>62752048
Same. I enjoy watchalongs greatly, especially if they're first-time reactions.

>>62754007
Has she actually done many first reaction ones? I can't think of one off the top of my head where she hasn't seen the thing before other than the Marvel TV shows which she often did on release day.

>>62747083
>same stance as Suisei
Not even close

>>62754775
I think she watched that Thanos movie (Endgame part 2?) for the first time with us, though I don't know if she didn't lie about it, because it's kinda hard to believe. Other than that and the Loki show, I can't think of any, either.
Subaru, Miko and Lamy reign supreme when it comes to watching stuff for the first time.

I love her ears so much when she does these faces

>>62755732
I just remembered that sheep movie she watched with Bakatare a while ago (earlier this year I think?), that was definitely a first-time watchalong as well.

>>62755953
Oh shit, I totally forgot about that one, and I haven't even watched it yet. Thanks.

>>62734066
Sucking on friend's soft toes

>>62756080
I definitely recommend doing so if you can find the time, the movie was pretty weird so their reactions were fun to see.

I love you too, Kurokami!

Tomorrow, there's a Momotestu collab with Mio, Koyo and Pocchan. She also wants to play the personality test game once more before that. She will watch the remaining 6 episodes of this show with us on Sunday at 20 and plans to watch season 2 at an undecided later point in time as well.

I love Fubuki even if she lost all our house's money.

I wish Kuro would play the personality game.

I love you, Fubuki!

What's the coolest pic you have?

>>62763062
Too many to choose from, but maybe this.

>>62763062
Cool? I have many cute ones but cool is a rare thing. I like this guy's artstyle

>>62769133
This one will always make me laugh

100% practical

>>62562988
Tried the houjicha today. It tastes more like most black teas then the houjicha I had bought from ito-en before that I didn't like.
This makes me hopeful for the customized one in the new tea set.

>>62772343
I've been stingy with her tea too because it was unclear whether there was going to be a rerun. I still haven't opened the houjicha from last time, might give it a go this weekend. I've drank some cheaper houjicha before and thought it was okay, curious much better this stuff is.

>>62772343
>then
God how many years has it been since I made that mistake.

>>62772637
I wouldn't even call the ito-en houjicha that cheap. It just had a different overall flavour profile. I can't remember cause it has been months, but it may have had a slightly smokey flavour to it. I don't like that due to too much smoked fish in my childhood causing me to associate that flavour with cooked fish, which I also really do not like.
I've not really had enough teas often enough to compare what this houjicha is like, which is why all I could say is it tastes more like most other black teas I've had, aside from chai. I typically go for chai though, which tend to have a spicier flavour profile.

Friends! Wake up!

Friends! Wake up!

Don't wake me up, I was dreaming a beautiful dream where Fubuki was feeding me her fubu-milk

Has Fubuki ever had translator in her chat like Koyori or Korone? I know she has used the auto one but that was not really that great.

>>62780020
She used to have a dedicated one but we don't talk about him or his name anymore.

>>62780630
ah, ok. Sad that no one has taken the torch since it seems that there are people in here that know japanese

>>62780843
Live translating is one hell of a step up from summarizing after the fact, or posting here about something that happened right after it happened but at a much more leisure pace. Hell, it's basically two steps up, with a translated clip being one step up.
Maybe others disagree, but to me, doing only partial live translation feels half way pointless, and running into stuff you might not already know how to translate will either slow you down or force incomplete translations and potentially end up with broken context from one part to the next. And that's assuming you actually manage fairly accurate translations live that don't require you re-listen a couple of time to make sure you heard something correctly for the stuff you do know. It's very stressful if you actually care about not misrepresenting what fbk said.
I'm far from being to a point where I would even feel comfortable doing summaries despite doing reps for longer than others to do post them (though that's partially an effort and focus issue for sure). Even if I felt I could do live translations, I'd probably stick to doing summaries and encouraging people to do their reps since it enhances their enjoyment live without relying on someone else, and can be applied outside of the streams.

>>62792341
beautiful

Good night, friends!

>>62797322
Me on the right

>>62780843
>>62785915
Like anon said, it's not a matter of knowing Japanese or how to translate, it's basically an entirely different skillset. Doing "live translations" in chat isn't even translation anymore, it's more akin to simultaneous interpretation in written form. Aside from the fact that it's highly challenging for the reasons laid out above, it's also frankly not very useful in the form most people do it because they just tend to pick and choose random things they say because it's not possible to do literally everything without being briefed by the person about what topics they are going to be talking about so the interpreter can prepare and roughly knows what's coming in what order beforehand. The end results is just you getting random sentences that are barely representative of what they say because it skips so much context and is prone to error because there's no time for research or revision and there's a lot of speculation. Due to the nature of the thing, these people usually post like 1-2 lines a minutes while the streamer has been talking constantly without a break so even if the translations they do post are accurate, they skip 80% of what they say or risk end up getting hopelessly behind. I haven't looked at one of these live translation in a long long long time, but what I tended to notice before is that they often just post the easy stuff that doesn't really require much thought and skip topics that are complicated. Keep in mind that I'm not saying these people suck or anything, it's just a herculean task that I don't really feel is worth doing in the first place for the subject matter at hand. There's a reason that in real life, simultaneous interpretation is usually only done at international business, diplomatic or academic conferences by highly skilled professionals. The vast majority of interpretation is done consecutively where the interpreter takes notes and summarizes what the speaker said after they are done talking.
When I do my summaries here, I often take rough notes while watching the stream, rewrite and edit them after the stream is over and go back and rewatch certain sections for clarification afterwards if I have the time to make sure I don't misrepresent anything. This already takes a lot of time and effort, but allows me to actually enjoy the stream while doing it (most of the time) and to quality to check to (hopefully) ensure I got most of it right. Anything more than that would actively impair my enjoyment of watching and would be so stressful that it would basically turn this into a second job. As much as I disliked the old translator as a person, I can definitely understand why he burned out. He basically turned this into a (second?) unpaid full-time job by showing up for almost every stream. One single paid job is already enough for me to be tired at all the time, I couldn't even imagine doing what he did. Still doesn't excuse him basically turning into an anti in the end, but that's a different story altogether.
Also, quite frankly, I don't really have enough sympathy for the average EOP that makes no effort to do their reps at all and relies on being spoonfed live translation as a crutch. The comment sections of translated Hololive clips are some of the most infuriating I have ever seen, it's usually just people repeating four year old jokes and confidently misunderstanding everything due to having no context at all. I'm glad that this place is entirely different and most people make an actual effort to either learn the language or learn about Shirakami in general, so I feel like doing summaries or answering questions here is worth the effort.

>>62799485
Ok, makes sense and as silly as it might sound I use Hyperchats translation for the chat to get general idea what she is talking about from the replies so I am not completely lost. As much I would like to learn japanese, it is like almost a second job too and I can't really justify fully commiting just for Fubuki / other JPs. Maybe in the future the speech to text that she used gets an AI boost that can accurately translate but I doubt that is happening anytime soon.

>>62804505
>As much I would like to learn japanese, it is like almost a second job too
I guess that depends on your approach and how demotivated you get if you don't make progress quick. I spent my first year casually grinding anki. This took anywhere from 10 - 30 minutes a day. I still do this just to keep vocab fresh. After that first year I started playing simple JRPGs, where I could control the text advancement and look stuff up as necessary.
But my motivation was specifically that, mostly to play games, so once I got to that point I was feeling great. It doesn't transfer as well to understanding streams, but still helps a lot.
So imagine if you did just that. Just stuck with anki reps and watching streams. Not the most efficient, but it would also be low effort. Adding in 10-30 minutes of flashcards on top of what you already do. If you continue watching fbk for even one year after starting, you'd probably look back and be surprised at how much more you can understand despite not doing what would be actual proper study.

Of course, that said, it would only really work out if you focus on the streams and don't use them as background noise. Unfortunately that's what I do, which is why my listening comprehension is still relatively low. Still, roughly 60% - 70% comprehension when I focus is well above the maybe 10% it would be if I had never started reps.
There's also the issue of how mentally exhausting your job is. I've missed two days of anki reps this year because I didn't do them in the morning, and had a lot of fires to put out during work, so I forgot to do my panic check in the evening.

>>62804505
>>62806554
What you suggested is exactly what I did for the first six months or so. I just repped pre-made Anki decks for about 30-45 minutes a day and watched streams and I feel like I progressed just fine. Of course, the pace of learning picked up massively when I started playing games and watching anime in Japanese and mined vocabulary from that, but that's probably mostly because I really enjoy doing that. While it's hard art first, I barely even consider this learning anymore at this point, I just changed the language of most of the entertainment I would have consumed anyway (and consume less western stuff I guess). Give it a try if you got an hour or two to kill one of these days, I think it's definitely worth it if you are even remotely invested in this hobby or Japanese entertainment in general.

>>62806554
That's the thing for me too, most streams (even EN ones) are background noise, most of the time, since I like to multitask at the same time and like I said vtubers are not enough motivation for me to really learn the language. I probably never bother to learn writing / reading japanese and most likely stick doing what I have been doing, watching anime / playing games with english subs. Will people disagree with that method? Yes and I know its not good way to do it but it works for me and it is how I learned english at very young age too. But enough of that, this Fubuki thread and soon she will be doing round 2 of the personality game

Her thighs are living rent free in my head.

Whatever happened to Street Fighter. She said she was going to play it a lot in November and even scheduled a Stream once but never ended up doing one in the end. I wonder if she decided not to play in the rumored tournament after all.

Good morning, friends!

What's the plan today? was the stream good?

>>62828076
There's Momotetsu with a bunch of other canines on Mio Ch. in an hour and a bit. She hasn't played this in a while, but all I remember about it from last time is that I didn't understand anything and it takes a very long time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUrjIPXT0fw

The Refind Self stream earlier was fun, I enjoyed her comparing her results with the other Holomen in the end. A bit of a shame that she had to rush towards the end because of time restraints, though.

Would someone be so kind and grab Foobs id for that game and post it here? Maybe even the other members too. I probably do it myself at somepoint but now if will passout from lack of sleep

>>62828982
I found a tweet from yesterday that has a bunch of Holomen IDs:

How powerful is Fubuki on a Hololive scale?

>>62863515

According to the manga. She's strong but not enough to fight gods.

>>62861415
I love her Miteiru plushie and her Fubuki caffe food. But I would love a Fubuki dakimakura.

>>62866817
I bet if she did do a dakimura it would be something like fubuzilla instead of her directly.

>>62866817
I wish...

>>62871736
I would love a very long plushie of Miteiru or Fubura that would work as a daki or hugging pillow.

She really wants there to some sort of Fubura.

She truly understands what Otaku would do.

What was it about? The event I mean.

>>63045234
I honestly haven't really kept up with it all that much to be honest. Apparently it was some sort of music event over five days with a lot of popular real bands and artists and she was very nervous to be able to join because she felt like she didn't really belong there. Marine, Mori and Suisei were going to perform as well.

>>63045505
Ah, makes sense for her to have been nervous, those three a pretty big on the music side. A bit sad it was cancelled, would have been good confidence boost for Foobs

It's pretty interesting that she almost never apologizes in these kind of situations but thanks people for looking forward to the canceled event instead. It's also a nice gesture that she's trying to organize something else to make it a little less frustrating for them. It's obviously not her fault at all and she is most likely upset about it herself but a lot of other people would feel compelled to apologize on the organizers behalf.

I like the fox midriff.
