to appeal to EN audience

who?

>>692778
because they wanted to keep it a secret from the JP branch since no one besides the person singing needed to be involved with the produuction

>>692778
Because EN viewers and JP viewers will watch the video if Calli is singing.

Whereas AZKi doesn't have any more draw than the JP holos already have. It's smart marketing.

>>692778
Kinda pissed that they didn’t choose Nene

>>692778
People bitch about EN getting shafted, Cover gives Mori a spotlight. Retards then bitch about JP getting shafted.

>>697765
the duality of tards

>>692778
Its just music for a project trailer, it doesn't have any significance compared to the project and animation showing off the real hololive girls. Having mori sing is just an easter egg so that foreign fans have a reason to care, the real excitement is the video and upcoming comics

>>692778
because if sora didn't recently get her to start doing the mineycrafts and whatnot, nobody would remember azki exists due to her lack of interaction with her coworkers.

>>698093
AZKi is a nobody in the states but pretty popular in JP. And really, isn't that all that matters?

>>697765
They gave her spotlight in the most retarded way possible, by showing off Calli's subpar singing skills. She's good at rapping, but I'd struggle to point out a holo with worse voice for that kind of song.

>>700564
Noel

>>692778
Why didn't they choose Gura instead? Or Sora? Or Aki? Or Roboco? Or Marine? Or Rushia? Or Coco? Or Pekora? Or Kiara? Or Polka? Or Marine? Or YAGOO?

We'll never now.

Thanks anon, I will watch AZKi now.

>>700812
Everyone knows Roboco can't sing to save her life.

>>700812
If sticking with EN for overseas marketing then Gura wouldn't be able to visit the studio that likely has hundreds of thousands worth of audio equipment

Why calli is the one that has a solo mv with the most visits, it also attracts the English public.

>>693908
You're fucking stupid, anyone would watch it regardless of singer. And Calli reaaaaaaaally can't sing, she should just stick to her cringe japshit rap

>>702317
But aside from Rap, she can't sing for shit, you can hear her struggle through the song, at least her singing wasn't as sad as the guy from Motley Crue on that concert holy shit

>>703232
Also the mixing is really weird, her voice is so isolated from the instrumental just makes it weird to listen to like a dub over

I want Moririn to pee cutely into my mouth

>>697765
Don't worry, Sora will be the main character for Hololive Alternative!

>>692778
I imagine the full song is in both English and Japanese and if they wanted only one singer for it then Calli seems like a good fit.

Azki needs to start doing more than just singing to get more eyes on her.

AZKi was too busy playing eroges

AZKi design is sex

Azki something something

Blessed AZKi

Azki is probably too busy with her own music to be honest and Mori did a great job showing us she's not just a rap girl.

>>692778
Scheduling conflicts is the only answer that both makes sense and doesn't require asinine levels of ass pulling.

>>707090
Which one?

>>697905
it isn't

It's for an MV. A Music Video, where the audio takes center stage. If they went for EN cameos and let real singers sing it, like AZKi, Suisei or Ayunda, then it would've had a better pull not only for the already fans but also to would be fans.

The problem was that Calli got a #1 in itunes, this made them think that Calli sounds good for viewers. But if you ask people outside of /vt/ about the singing, they'd say it is horrible.

>>719670
Hell, I'm here, I like Calli's songs, and Christ that singing was God-awful. Should have gotten someone to actually edit it.

Gura in her fucking bedroom sounds 10x better.

>>700812
YAGOO would be pretty kino.

>>692778
'cos cover corp likes money, and Calli crosses over with a wider audeince for free publicity

>>719553
both

>>719670
>The problem was that Calli got a #1 in itunes, this made them think that Calli sounds good for viewers. But if you ask people outside of /vt/ about the singing, they'd say it is horrible.
The most retarded take I've read on this site for a while. If anything, the reverse is true. This place is full of people like you who think she's shit and irredeemably bad at singing while elsewhere people with that opinion are much more rare.
Also what the fuck kind of sense does your position even make? She got #1 on itunes, so in conclusion obviously nobody likes her singing?

How is any of this supposed to make sense?

>>720349
Those boots look heavy as fuck.

>>720349
also f*ck frog

>>720881
sorry anon, the boots stay on during sex

>>720349
Is she an exhibitionist or something? That jacket is awfully big for how scantily dressed she is.

>>720881
the better for stomping your balls

>>722008
I like AZKi's weird transparent smock bikini. It's unique.

>>693908
JP viewers dish out more cash you brain dead retard. Not one, NOT ONE of the ENs are in the top ten or even 20 most superchatted holos

>>722008
No doubt. She always wears risqué clothing.

>>700812
>>697765
>>692778
I think is apparent that Cali is sleeping with one of the executives. There is no way she randomly gets all these permissions for outside collabs, prime spots and the such without sucking someone’s dick.

>>720898
Impressive

>>720869
>She got #1 on itunes, so in conclusion obviously nobody likes her singing?

Cover does not have a pulse on what kind of music to present to overseas viewers. All they know is that Mori sings, she's the top superchatted vtuber in HoloEN, she got a #1 on itunes therefore she must be good in the eyes of the overseas viewers, or even to people outside of Hololive, because #1 on itunes.

She got #1 on itunes, so in conclusion people must like her singing even if it doesn't sound good on our part.

>>722057
>calling people retard
>while trying to put down a bunch of talents that debuted in September with Total Superchat 2020

Anyway Calli
>lives in Japan
>expressed interest in appearing at Bloom but has no 3D model
>is easily top 5 most accomplished musicians in Hololive
>but hasn't gotten a single song produced BY Hololive
Not hard to see why they put her on the project. It's not like they gave Calli a song to the exclusion of the other talents, they wrote like a dozen of the fucking things to prep for Bloom.

AZKi's lore is she's some kind of cyborg ninja in a post-apocalyptic setting, right? I hope Cover finds a way to incorporate her into the manga. Maybe add in a time travel side plot.

>>722231
>nigger speak is accomplishment
>makes zero dollars
>is fat and cannot dance
Let me guess you are black

>>722057
Her reach is insane retard, deadbeats top multiple charts globally.

>>722080
Ogey

>>722313
>uses his /pol/-acquired racism to justify hating someone for their accomplishments despite having never achieved anything himself

>>722177
The fuck? Who do you think is pushing her up there to #1 in itunes, fucking aliens? Clearly people like her. Drop the "our". You're only speaking for yourself because it seems you have even less of a pulse on what kind of music to present to overseas viewers than Cover does when your position is to ignore all market feedback and instead act according to voodoo reverse logic.

>>722080

>>722329
>top charts but cannot bring in consistent revenue so its fine

Oh no whatever shall we do

>>700564
sounded fine even if i dont like calli, reminded me a lot of maya sakamoto's fgo songs and cm which i think is what they were going for

>>722559
>numberfag

Funny how this board condemns that until it's narratively useful.

Face it, loser. Calli is more successful and more popular than your oshi.

>>722080
her name is karen, i assume shes just strong arming her management with her gaijin aggresion

Raging doesn't make you more right, anon. Thank God this is an anonymous board though, eh? No one will ever know how sad and wrong you are.

>>722080
Unbased japs do not like fat woman

>>722819
>numbers prove the argument
You know we can check Playboard right? Calli made $21k in Superchat over the past week, which is higher than most of her JP senpais including Pekora and Aqua.

Azki probably has probably has some other activities preventing her. She has been dishing out content more consistently now. Sora is probably the same as well. Suisei is packed too, if she wasn't then she would have participated in Bloom. Gura, she probably doesn't have a recording capability for a song or she declined. Gura can't even schedule a collab with another outside of holoen.

Foe HoloID like Risu or Moona, this is the one that sucks but Calli is more well known comparatively and her voice is decent if she tries. It's not awful.

For girls that are not already busy with Bloom or not HoloID, or busy as fuck that would be Watame, Nene or Kiara. They weren't offered the job too. It maybe because Calli was just more popular. I don't know.

Calli was one of the last one I'd choose. It would have made sense if it was duet with another person.

>>722349
She sucked at singing the MV song. Doesn't matter if 'people' like her for her rap. She sucked at singing the song that mattered, they could have chosen better singers for the part.

She only got the part because they thought she's good at singing the part because #1 on itunes even though the song doesn't suit her.

>>723285
Whether she sucked or not is subjective unless you can prove otherwise. And besides you're forgetting that the main audience are japs and japs don't care if it isn't perfect as long as your worked hard for it. The idol mentality that Cover operates on literally revolves around that tenet.

Mori’s singing is fine.

>>701656
I like her KING cover and there's nothing you can do to change my mind

>>722057
>comparing someone who's only been around for a few months to people who've been around for years
>"durr y don shee hab az mutch groz monies tho?"

>>701656
Fuck off. Her soft singing voice in Sweets Parade was the highlight of Holofes.

>>723232
>Risu or Moona
Moona's definitely out but Risu possibly could work with her Ayunda voice but they aren't in Japan and I'd doubt they'd allow something this big to be recorded outside their main offices.
>Nene
Haven't heard her sing other than dumbells OP so I can't make an opinion about her.
>Kiara
You're kidding.

>>724295
Have you listened to Moona sing? She's fucking gloriouis.

As for Nene. She can sing but she's the kind of singer that you would put on a cover band.

>>723285
And they could have picked worse singers also - there's plenty to choose from. You don't know shit about why she got that part, all you have is empty speculation.

>>722057
>Sorted by all time
Anon, kill yourself to keep your retard genes out of the gene pool.

>>724295
I only mentioned Kiara because she won't struggle trying to reach the key that Calli was trying to reach. The song was probably made for someone with a natural high key. Not saying it will be good though. Like I said, I would have preferred a duet rather than letting Calli sing because this way, you get to plaster Calli's name and have better singer reach the high notes. Nene is a really good singer. I think she was an idol before joining. She's a rank below Suisei for me. I would have preferred Nene because of the fact she couldn't really be part of Bloom. It would have been a better narrative than this whole Calli is famous

>>722177
>She got #1 on itunes, so in conclusion people must like her singing even if it doesn't sound good on our part.
Anon, did you reread that sentence and realize how fucking retarded you sound or did I just encounter the most autistic person known to man on the internet who completely lacks self awareness and is unable to cope with the fact that people can have other opinions than he does and copes with it by being in denial about it?

>>724516
I didn't mean Moona's singing was bad I just think she's not a good fit for the song.

>>719670
>If they went for EN cameos and let real singers sing it, like AZKi, Suisei or Ayunda, then it would've had a better pull not only for the already fans but also to would be fans.

The video reached one million views in less than a day.

Busy with other shit and preparing for m3 probably

>>724743
Calli was the last thing that made the pv viral. I replayed it so many just to see every one shot by shot. I even muted her at some point.

>>724935
I never said anything about Calli being the only thing that made it viral but trying to deny that it had any factor is just cope. Arguing that any other person would make it have "more" reach is dumb. unless you think that having Azki sing the song would appeal to normies or something which in case you are severely retarded

>>692819
>>698093
This EOPs really doesn't know shit kek. AZKi doesn't stream much because she is the busiest and most popular vtuber in Jp. She goes by different names, depends on what project she is doing. AZKi is just one of her personas. That girl is so well-known in the jp entertainment industry that calling her underrated is wrong.
>AZKi persona's the only vtuber with already 2 released albums, not counting the other roommate and pennames she use
>always gets hired to sing for Visual Novels and Games
>Roommate is doing concerts
She did more than anyone in hololive

>>725084
I'm just saying that the pv itself is what made it viral and what the anon was saying did have a point. The song did sound it has a good hook and having a great vocal back it up would have made it better. They didn't even put her name on it or in the vid description. Calli had to say it on Twitter. Also, a lot of people didn't even realize it was her.

The reach part because it's Calli. That's stretching it. A lot of their holografitti videos on the official channel gets 1m easy on the first day. Bloom was trending worldwide and was 1 in Japan during the whole concert so releasing the pv at the same time would naturally gather audience for it.

>>725239
So what you're trying to say that it didn't actually matter who actually sang the song and that this entire thread is stupid?

>ITT: butthurt /jp/ hlg tourist

Wow, Mori has really expanded her RENT-FREE business.

>>725323
Not that anon but that's literally how it is. No matter who sung that song the video will get viral because it's the hololive members in anime form doing anime things in an anime opening. The music in it is the last thing that people will appreciate, there are so many visuals there to look upon. In short, Calli singing didn't contribute to it being viral. Hell it will even have the same views even if Noel was the one singing because of one reason: Hololive members in ANIME FORM. That's it.

>>725323
The question really is why not choose a better singer. There were people that are more skilled or would fit better. I honestly think it's because Calli was the first one that accepted the job and the music producers didn't bother to ask anyone else. She has hard time of saying no. She did mention that she has been recording nonstop.

>>725201
This. Based AZKi. But ofcourse EOPfaggots doesn't know that.

>>692778
I see that the chilean has seethed again.

>>725400
I think it would be more viral if it was Noel. I'd blast it

>not realizing that Mori wrote the song.
>recently confirmed that there's an english segment.

Keep seething.

>>725452
Facts. People will be surprised. Noel should have done it.

Mori singing in Japanese was so damn cringe. kek even holoID would've done a better job. Her westernshit accent is so noticeable.

>>725529
>>692778
go back to /jp/, faggots.

>I'll gladly live inside your head, but who in the fuck pays my rent?

>>725415
>it literally didn't matter who sang the song
>but they could've chosen a better singer

>>692778
Because she wrote the song, dipshit. It's her song.

>ignore the fact that she wrote the lyrics of the song
>has a long english segment.

Kek, wow /jp/ is a better decision maker than Cover themselves.

>>692778
why is her head shaped like a dick?

Maybe that /jp/ tourists here should leave before Mori becomes even more popular and have more accolades.

remember to take your meds too.

>>725470
noooooo all the ホロライブJP tourists will shit themselves at the thought of there being more english than they thought in alternative

>>725671
>>725681
They aren't in the opening though. Good thing holoEN aren't there animated. Still a vanilla holoJP exclusive anime. Feelsgood.

>>725794
>Implying Mori won't be the one isekai-ing Sora into the Holo world.

>>725808
>mori hits sora with a truck

It makes a lot more sense knowing that she wrote the song, too. They must have wanted some English lyrics in there to appeal to everyone.
And her singing is fine.

>>722057
That chart looks a bit strange...

>>722177
Take a 30-45 minute break from the internet,

>>722819
You are committing sins against statistics.

>>725869
>hideous cringe fuck runs over idol
I've seen that one before!

I’ll be honest, I’m only posting that Mori’s singing is meh because every time she succeeds I see the bar for making it get higher and higher and that depresses me.

>>722273
wtf i just know that

>>725794
>Good thing holoEN aren't there animated
yet
gen 5 also hasn't shown up in the 35 second trailer
the seethe from /jp/ kiddies when EN members show up in any of the media will be wonderful, especially if its in a MV

>>725415
>The question really is why not choose a better singer.
Because they thought Mori would be the best for the job and she was end of discussion. You're free to seethe and cope about it all you want
