Because she’s entertaining

>>7369696
/thread

She's got good energy and vibes. Pretty cute, really enthuastic, not boring.

>>7369696
ultra zoomer laughing after every sentence is funny to you? they way she talks about old games is disgusting, fuck her and fuck you

>>7369733
Didn’t know they let the old boomers in nursing homes have access to the internet. Do the nurses know your posting here?

>>7369682
Only on Apex.

APEX

Apex buff. Even Japs watch her.

>>7369696
As much as watching paint dry

>>7369733
>ultra zoomer laughing after every sentence is funny to you?
Yes.

>greyscale toned man with chiseled chin

>>7369682
only on apex.

>>7369682
She made Apex fun for EoPs

And i mean, the actual game, not just them being funny during game downtime like Towa and Matsuri.

>>7369875
Wonder if people will still think Apex is fun when she stops 1v6ing helpless Bronzeshitters

>>7369682
>interesting choices of games

>SMUG DRAGON

Who wouldn't fuck a dragon?

The only comparison is hololive's amelia and all I get is salt and "ARG THE PING" and the fact she takes chat so seriously just seems depressing, as if she's just filling in an obligation.

But the truth is, its all subjective, if she joined hololive she would be stuck middling and get no buff, she ain't for everyone and that's fine, I don't have to love Finana or Tokino Sora, and you don't have to like anyone either, I just hope someone loves you

>>7369682
Right now she only moggs the others when playing apex. If she can turn her apexfans into general fans, she will be by far the biggest NijiEN

she sounds like phil from rugrats

>>7369727
>Maternity apron that says "LOADING 80%"
That's actually funny.

>>7369912
Watching good people play is still fun, and it doesn't sound like she's going to be powergrinding to Pred or anything. I suspect she'll try to float her rank around everyone else so that they can still do collabs.

>>7369696
>>7369733
>ultra zoomer
what i like about selen is that i can watch ollie without having to watch ollie. they got the same energy without the yabs.

>>7370344
She did mentioned that climbing the ranks is bearable with a good team, so I guess she's waiting to team up with some decent EN chuuba.

>>7370648
Apex in general is a hell of a lot more bearable when you have people to play it with you, so that makes sense.

>>7369733
>PS2 GameCube games
>Old
Zoom zoom to you too.

>>7370995
Anon, I hate to break it to you, but the PS2 stopped getting games over a decade ago. The only games released after 2010 for PS2 were some shovelware EA Sports titles and a couple of niche titles that overran their production cycle. Gamecube's been dead since 2007, and was ringing its death bells the year before, 15 years ago.
We're getting old, anon. The games we liked are now considered retro classics.

>>7369682
Female that's actually good at FPS games, as opposed to "good for a vtuber" skill level.

>>7371169
I hate to break it to you, but I'm 46 and grew up playing Commodore 64 games. I've been old for a long time.

>>7369682
She's an actual gamer girl. And it's great.

>>7369682
1. Entertaining
2. ACTUALLY ENGAGES with chat
3. She actually WANTS to be there.
4. She's heavily relatable as a gamer.
5. She doesn't pander to coomer bullshit.
6. She'll literally rat you out if she recogonizes you as a simp of other gen/niji mates playfully.

Seriously, if you choose the shitty penguin or the scammer over her (obsydia only of course) you have trash taste and probably only enjoy luna from holo as well.

>>7369733
Why so salty?

Selen LOVE

>>7369682
worldwide top500 apex predator in apex legend

>>7372469
Also has the cutest fucking intro of any vtuber/liver.

>>7372627
she really does

>>7372469
>She'll literally rat you out if she recogonizes you as a simp of other gen/niji mates playfully
Does she really? Hope she drops that shit, the most annoying rushiaism possible, good for supas though

>>7372794
It only happens in donation/supa reading, because someone she recognized that simps for elira she ratted out to her on discord after reading his donation because he called elira old etc lol.

>>7373053
Based

Honestly selen is really good, she really cares about stuff shes passionate about and enjoys sharing her passion with others, its contagious.
Shes a charisma sun and I can't help but get energized by her.

>>7369733
>fuck her
Don't mind if I do!

>>7369696
fpbp

>>7369682
i pray that one day we will get to see her rage at megaman, that shovel knight stream was great.

>>7369733
Kys

SELEN SUPREMACY!

>>7369733
I would like to see you say that to her face, it would be amusing.

apex buffed her algorithm

>>7377877
not to that point, she went from 100k views in her first apex to 50k and thats with 3-4hrs per stream.
She got a nice boost at the beginning but it seems new trafic isnt coming to her channel anymore. She got a nice2k live viewership but her vod views aren't increasing anymore.

>>7377877
Hear me out, maybe, just maybe, she's actually entertaining.

>>7369682
Because she streams when there are no other streams.

>Not in Hololive
Yep, literally who

Yawn. So it's another Ollie who is actually good at Apex? I'll pass. I used to watch Chihiro all days and nights and I just can't take Apex anymore.

>>7378705
>So it's another Ollie who is actually good at Apex
No, not at all. And she actually doesn't want to play apex 24/7 but obviously those are streams that generate the most viewers so management expects her to do them. For exchange she can play some less popular stuff like Onimusha, RE4 etc.

>>7378705
>another Ollie
Was she fucked on stream too?

>>7369682
infectious enthusiasm and cracked at apex

>>7379095
She was actually, I just went nice and slow so she didn't make too much noise.

>>7369696
Fpbp

>>7369682

Because she is a fantastic streamer. Both her and Wosemi are top tier talents (Wosemi will get more attention later when she collabs with Elira and Pomu)

>>7372469
You Mfs overrate her so much lmao.

>>7380058
It's more like people like you have grown so used to underserving low energy vtubers or vtubers with only one joke (PEEPEEPOOPOO) type of personality you don't know what an actual entertainer looks like anymore. Explain how she's overrated at all? As she's been more entertaining in 3ish weeks counting non-debut than many hololive people have been in years.

>>7369682
Extroverted on stream. Positive. And is good at Apex.

>>7369727
>ywn have a tomboy gamer wife that you have impregnated

Is getting anti threads the sign that you made it?

>>7369733
Oh shit are you that crypto she dunked on

>>7381545
Has to be lol, why else would someone be ultra salty?

>>7369912
She stopped playing against bronzes and got matched with diamonds after one game with finana. Plus there are no bronze players in bronze right now.

>>7381501
She seems to be the Kiara of NijiEN in the sense that introverted autists and incels get filtered by her boisterous extrovert personality.

>>7381735
>Finana is the Kiara of NijiEN
>Pomu is the Kiara of NijiEN
>Selen is the Kiara of NijiEN

She actually seems competent at games and has a brash, boisterous though agreeable personality, as well as not being too promiscuous. A nice break from all of the quiet, cute, or lewd personas that seem to saturate the Vtubing industry.
>>7381735
Not to insult Kiara, though Selen has done a much better job defining herself. Even if she is somewhat bolstorous, she hasn't let the toxic gamer persona define her. Like Kiara let bottom left jokes fester.

>>7381807
Yes, and?

>>7369696
fpbp

I personally don't understand the appeal. It's like we're getting Happy Wheels era Pewdiepie back to scream and laugh at everything. Seems to have the same mass appeal though

I don't know how people can watch her without muting her. That's how annoying her voice is.

>>7369682
Entertaining/funny, high tomboy energy, good at Apex

>>7369696
and my wife

>>7372469
Pingu is only filtering retarded EOPs, she is great.

>>7372469
>5. She doesn't pander to coomer bullshit.
thats doesnt bring in more views

>>7382738
Even if that's true, so what?

>>7372469
>She'll literally rat you out if she recogonizes you as a simp of other gen/niji mates playfully
wtf I love Selen now

>>7383344

>>7369696
fpbp, op is a fag

>>7381545
what is crypto in this context, I take it that it doesn't mean the money....?

>>7371169
Anon I hate to break it to you but my first console was a PS3 which is also considered old by zoomer standards,
Being 2001 does put me at the top end of the zoomer spectrum though

>"the reason why I pick this game (RE4) is because growing up I always seen my dad playing it over and over again...
>RE4 released back in '05.
God, GOD I feel so old. Also, her dad is based.

>>7372215
Imagine being 46 on 4chan. Sad life you have there lol. At least some of us here just shitpost between classes.

>>7383564
I'm 33. The frontier is dead. There's no country for old men.

>>7369682
Because she's the only good NijiEN.
Pomubronies, fishtrannies and penguincucks need not reply.

>>7369682
The fact that she can laugh though scuff is plenty proof how good she is. Most girls would be in a performance panic over things going wrong, but she still keeps things naturally entertaining. Not to mention she's open to playing whatever the fuck she wants without having to conform to popular shit.
She's the first person I ever sat though watching Apex. The fact she's good enough to passively talk while playing a game most people tend to just be quiet while playing is a good show of talent

>>7372469
What's wrong with Luna...?

>>7383655
The frontier is inside you.

1:14:30

>>7369682
>most skilled
>charismatic
gee I wonder

>>7369682
Because she's entertaining as a streamer.
Also why the fuck is NijiEN character designs ugly as fuck? NijiJP is generally regular looking teenagers that dress well and look attractive because of the 2D aesthetics like Kanae and Mito etc. and this formula obviously works well. NijiEN on the other hand are all some stupid fucking animals and mythological beings. Petra gets a boost in subs because she is the only one without a character debuff.
I guess anikara looked at Hololive and their stupid ass designs and decided to copy them.

>>7384079
Selen's character model is close to normal. You'd just have to remove the bib, dragon, and the wing hair from her. Then, you'd have a chuuni tomboy.

>>7384004
oh Crypto is a character in that Apex game, I see. I'm a boomer but don't play that game, but I think Selen is based because she cured my erectile dysfunction. A true ray of light that lass is.

>>7369682
She has a shit ton of zoomer fans. The average twitchtard pepe spamming kind.

>>7384437
What do you expect with all these zoomers here pretending Apex is a good game.

>>7382728
She also filters everyone who doesn't want to bow down to Xi Jinping

Honestly I'm pretty sure Vei is better at Apex than her.

>>7384504
Botan from holo is better than Selen at Apex.

>>7384437
Have you actually watched her streams? Her chat is clean from spam and actually on topic most of the time.

>>7384079
I don't think they're bad designs, in fact, Elira is one of my favourite vtuber designs ever, but it's obvious that they took a look at what works within the EN scene before commissioning the characters. EN viewers seem to prefer flashy and anime-ish designs (shonen shit dominates in the western anime/manga fanbase), and largely consider the simple, down-to-earth designs such as Yashiro, Mito etc. boring. I don't think there was ever a chance of a high school girl ending up in NijiEN's ranks, though the contrast would be funny if one showed up in a later wave.

>>7384657
I like Elira's design but I don't like that she sweats all the time. Kind of eww.

>>7384542
They should collab and find out. Backbiting slavic whores not welcome.

Im a zoomer and i don't get the appeal. her voice is grating on my ears and it dosen't help that she likes apex

>>7370344
>doesn't sound like she's going to be powergrinding to Pred or anything.
there is a good chance she might be negotiating a few of her friends to play with her, they dont even need to be vtubers themselves just her normal group need to be cleared by management I think.

>>7384689
Speak for yourself. I bet dragon sweat tastes heavenly.

>>7384657
If you do market research you'll find most English Vtubers have some pretty stand-out designs. So Anycolor probably did commissions based on these designs, going from Hololives and Vshojo's as a basis, Since they're the most popular groups. Still, I hope that Nijisanji EN maybe able to acquire some homely designs in the future.

>>7384774
Oh boy that's what people want to see, inside jokes that chat won't understand.

>>7384958
I don't think most pro gamers have many inside jokes at all... and at most, they'd most likely be Apex themed which would be what people expect from selen anyway..

>>7384689
It's okay anon, i sent my application to be her sweat manager. It's a full time job, but i do it for you all, i will make sure every drop is licked clean, no matter the location or intensity

>>7381807
>can't watch streamers without relating it back to HoloEN somehow
Do holobronies really?

>>7369682
her neck is so fuckin long

>>7381807
>Selen is the Kiara of NijiEN
Not even remotely dumb, lewd, or full of herself.
Also why is Kiara living so freely in that skull of yours. Did her scolding of your emote spam trigger you that much?

>>7385161
It's sexy

>>7385237
retard.

>>7385335
Careful anon, we wouldn't want to call your henchou over because you're not saying your allotted 3 meme responses in the right time frame

>>7385237
Get some reading comprehension you retarded schizo

I was promised RTS

BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA

>>7385891
she sucks at RTS though.

>>7385925
oh no my dick

>>7369875
This. I don't give a single shit about Apex and I don't normally watch when anyone else streams it.
But she manages to make the game actually look interesting, because she's a) really good at it, b) explains in detail what's going on, and c) engages with chat, all at the same time.

>>7388415
This is why anyone who hates Selen are too used to zoomer and coomer jokes that's been played out for years at this point with how much its spammed. It's why I can forgive dumb shit like "I'm Pomu" because its just her being a cute little dumb fairy, her past life iteration was exactly the same and we didn't mind.

Selen is actually interesting at the end of the day, to the point people literally forced her to to superchats/donations for 2-3 extra hours, not maliciously but because they genuinely enjoyed her. Now imagine people doing this for any other non-memed to high hell and back as their only fame vtuber.

>>7369682
Great design, heterochromia eyes, entertaining and fun to watch

>>7369682
good gameplay, okay voice, laugh way too much, and usually play meme game like apex.
i'll tune in sometimes

>>7369682
She feels honest, like she wont bullshit about enjoying something she hates.

But her honeymoon period is passing, I enjoyed her onimushu play through more than RE4.

Shovel knight also felt kinda forced but if it leads to her playing hollow knight then it fine.

>>7369682
Don’t care + Gura better

>>7389462
>Gura better
>Losing to Ina on numbers in a collab
oh no no no no, she used to rule the world bro!

>>7389585
Oh no, not the numbers, whatever are we gonna do?

Her laugh unironically heals my depression. Still kind of mad about what she said regarding RE4 though.

>>7389700
The only thing she has going for her is her sub count...that's it. It's the ONLY thing cumshits can even boost about and be right about it.

>>7389776
Lets be real, Nostalgia clouds many people perception like it does with everyone jacking off to the idea of getting Earthbound or Mother 3 thinking its the best shit ever.

>>7389776
What she say

>>7385925
What about other vtuber

>>7389776
I didn't mind her laugh at first, but she actually just laughs at every little thing for the entire duration of every stream which I just couldn't handle after a while

>>7389931
Main difference here is that the Mother series is just standard RPGs with some quirky stuff in them while RE4 changed shooters and action games forever. It plays just as well today as it did in 2005 because shooters released in 2021 still owe to it.

>>7390077
It's akin to having a 'tic', similar to how amelia has that annoying hic. Some people have a tendency to laugh at A LOT of things in place of different reactions, so not saying you need to like it, but think about how even when she's obviously pissed off/stressed she still laughs it off rather than toss her controller/keyboard through the monitor like many other streamers and vtubers.

Heck, Robin Williams is one of the most famous examples of "laughter and entertaining people is who I am" in a sense.

>>7390427
To be fair a ton of popular and indie rpgs these days are influenced by Earthbound/Mother

>>7390427
Kinda. Goldeneye 007 still holds the title for changing FPS and pushing it mainstream. RE4 changes survival horror more so than shooters. I played RE4 in its prime and recently, its honestly not THAT good, it's an amazing RE game but its definitely not aged that well similar to how Mario 64 was absolutely genre defining, but these days you can easily see just how bad it was, that's not considering "oh because games are better!" it's just back then it was the "future" at the time and despite the jank, it was heavily enjoyed; Thats why RE4 is treated as such a masterpiece despite how absolute jank it truly is and I say that as someone who LOVED RE4 to the point I forced every one of my friends in HS when It came out to play it.

>>7369682
She's Ollie without the constant real male e-celeb collabs.

>>7390763
Why does Ollie have some many of those, e-celebs are annoying asf and just insufferable

>>7385891
Starcraft remastered is on the schedule anon

>>7390698
>Goldeneye 007 still holds the title for changing FPS and pushing it mainstream
lol imagine believing this.

>>7390698
I don't honestly care enough to argue about /v/ shit on here but I don't see how RE4 is "jank" under any definition of the word. Maybe if you're trying to play it with KBM like it's GunZ or something it feels jank but as a console shooter it absolutely isn't. Every part of it is very deliberately designed and people play mercenaries to this day trying to get new records (Japan also has a big "challenge run" scene for it - https://w.atwiki.jp/bio4nico/ )

>>7385891
They have SC2 already but she wants to start with Remastered.

>>7390698
>>7390427
I remember EGM (might have been one of the other mags, was around when they all started to die) retroactively lowered their score for Goldeneye with the reason being "Halo was better and more revolutionary-er." Opposite of that is the review that's been getting posted of a PS1 Alien game getting dragged for featuring the expected default controller controls for any fps now. I also remember Turok being docked points in reviews because the controls were "awkward" too.

>>7381807
I'm filtered hard by Kiara, but I fucking love Selen.

Selen's just fun. It's like she's just there to vibe, and her energy just spreads around. Watching her is like just shooting the shit with your friend. It's amazing.

Kiara, on the other hand, is a numberfag. It feels like she's just desperate. Selen probably care about numbers sure, but she's subtle as fuck about it. Kiara shoves it down your throat. It feels like every time I watch Kiara, I'm getting guilt tripped and forced into actually subbing to her, enjoying the stream and giving her akasupas. Meanwhile, I'm not forced to even sub to Selen at all. I'm just there to have a good time and she's just there to have a good time.

Like Kiara has literally more subs and views than Selen sure, but Kiara makes it seem that she is the one that has very little subs, and Selen has the comfy numbers. Kiara just spends more of her time comparing her numbers to other people and it's REALLY obvious in most streams I've watched of her, old and new streams(Granted, she's kinda toned it down a little bit recently). Selen is way more enjoyable than Kiara because of it.

>>7391213
>>7391461
I wont argue that RE4 wasn't great at the time, but it feels dated and defined the genre so much if feels generic and subpar with a modern viewpoint.
Also everyone mentioning iconic games and not mentioning halflife is quite painful, so many console kiddies

>>7391617
>Selen probably care about numbers sure
She absolutely does but she also put years into streaming with meh numbers so she's more sympathetic in that regard.

>>7391871
>>7391617
Selen respects the grind. As anon said, its like vibing with a friend we can relate with, if old enough.

>>7369682
Because she's the only one with an actual personality.

>>7391461

>carried by her bf to master rank

>>7369682
Someone said that this bitch sounds like Phil from Rugrats and now I can't watch her anymore

>>7384542
I severely doubt that, as selen was on the better half of top 500 predator

>>7391707
Yeah the Goldeneye and Halo thing was for a ranking list of console only fps games. Halo still got shat on during the height of its popularity for all the things it ended up doing to fps games, /v/'s shift in views on it due to age was fun to watch.

>but it feels dated and defined the genre so much if feels generic and subpar with a modern viewpoint.
That viewpoint is fine IMO, it's basically the same caveat you'd have to bring up now if you recommend any of Wong Kar Wai's movies to anyone.

>>7392758
Just watched her lastest apex vod. There's not a fucking chance she's master. She's around finanas skill level, maybe a bit better

>>7369682
SELEN I KNOW YOU ARE /HERE/ PLEASE MARRY ME, I AM DECENT AT CARPENTRY

>>7369733
Do you ever get tired of being perpetually butthurt?

>>7369682
Because of her intros. I click on every single one of her VOD just to see her intro loop for as long as possible then fuck off once she actually starts streaming.

>>7394520
sounds like you're the butthurt one here

>>7369733
>fuck her
I'm trying

>>7389813
You forgetting VOD numbers? That's common too

>>7369682
she is beautiful

>>7369682
She actually has a sense of humor and is fun to watch. It's very obvious that she has a lot of streaming experience. The fact that she can make Apex streams bearable says a lot. You also need to be pretty fucking witty to turn every random mildly entertaining moment into something memorable. Never in my life did I think I'd genuinely laugh while watching an EN vtuber, but it's thanks to Selen that I realized how fucking boring and overrated holoEN is.

>>7395134
