/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Previous: >>74280678

A thread for numbers and news discussion of all JP vtubers and things related to JP vtubing.

>Who is on topic here?
All JP vtubers. Especially if they are without a general otherwise, but anyone JP or in a JP vtubing branch goes, for the most part.

>Are non-vtuber topics allowed?
Yes as long as they are Japanese and have sufficient impact on JP vtubing.
Some you might regularly find to be relevant: JP streamers and content creators, Crazy Raccoon, Anime&Manga, JP gaming industry, Vocaloid, Seiyuus, Jpop, National Television, other Japanese media and news outlets, etc

>Can I shill my small indie/corpo oshi here?
They are on topic, by definition. However, remind yourself that low-effort link-dumping and begging has never worked out well anywhere. Make your post interesting, put some effort into writing about them, and it should greatly help your purpose of shilling them as well.

>What is off-topic?
non-JP vtubers without relevant contex

I'm not sure what's the reason behind the no streaming option, but I don't think it's because they are not gaijin-friendly or announcing it at a later date
I thought of a possibility or them trying to increase the blurays sales with this method, but I'm not sure

>What did Tama/sio/Yue do?

There's this very common copypasta that's not completely accurate, but I feel like it should be enough to get the point across. Dozo.

---
Back in prehistoric time, one of the most popular vtuber companies was .LIVE.

And in this company, there was a vtuber named Yozakura Tama. Way back when, vtubers were idols, instead of making poopoo and weewee jokes, they were cute, chill and talented, and so was she. She played mahjong on semi-professional level and participated in many games with professional players. She was also very good at drawing.
But on one day, about 1.5 years ago, a drama occurred. Tama started tweeting that .LIVE is a black company and they treat their talents like shit. The specifics are unknown, as neither her nor the company did not cast light on the situation, but everybody sided with her, as everybody believed her. In the end she left with company and even convinced her genmate to live with her.
She presented .LIVE in really bad light, Baacharu, one of the greatest vtubers of all time, disappeared after that drama. Fans were disappointed in that company and many moved on to others. So, right before vtubers popularity skyrocketed, they lost all the momentum and completely overshadowed by rival companies such as Cover.

But this is not the end of the story. Few months later, Tama reincarnated as indie named Kusunoki Sio. All her former fans continued to support her as she was a talent mistreated by black company now trying hard to rise as an indie. She was fairly popular, her streams were comfy and chill, I liked to watch them, even hough I didn't know shit about mahjong. But then, at the same time as Aloe drama happened, another final yab occurred.
Due to security hole in blog site Note.com, her static IP was revealed. And it turned out, there was a shitposter on 5channel with the same IP address. The said shitposter is known as "ec" because of their id. This shitposter posted on vtuber board and there were thousands of pretty juicy posts that shittalked other vtubers (including your favourite holos), and even doxxed some of them, revealing sensitive information that could only be known by someone who met them personally. The discussion of those posts was a hot topic for almost half a year.
When it was revealed, the reaction of community was predictable. Imagine a chuuba collabs with your oshi and then shitposts about her in anti threads on /vt/. She suddenly made many enemies (there are no notable vtubers she didn't shittalk about, except Towa who is her close friend).
She was dislike bombed on stream live while streaming fall guys and trying to pretend that nothing happened. It seemed like not admitting anything and wait for people to forger about it was her plan, but later she tweeted that she received threats in physical mail to her mailbox, to the place where she lives, and that she is contacting lawyer and won't stream for a while.
As with Aloe, Sio also had white knights, mainly clueless redditors, who claimed it was not her, that somebody framed her, that it was a ninja hiding in her attic and using her wi-fi, but the evidence were overwhelming. More than that, it was proven that she were cheating at mahjong streamsniping her opponents, and that she conditioned some art that she later presented as her own drawings. All in all, she is a serial liar, and a backstabbing judas. Some people are still waiting for her formal apology, some still love her because she is /ourgirl/ who just liked posting rrats and because of her fat ass. Mainly because of fat ass.
To this day, most of .Live vtubers have virtually no growth in subscriber count in a year and they didn't have auditions since when. All they had is 5 graduations. Natori literally cried a river on her graduation, while streaming with virtually no sleep for almost 3 days, because it was her last chance to stream. She didn't stop talking with viewers even when stream was at the end screen, she valued every second she had to be with her fans. Futaba also cried a lot, but for lesser extent. Kongo Iroha was relatively lively, but still sad. Riko and Azuki did't stream for a year and were practically dead, so they didn't even say goodbye.
Sio killed 5, or even 7 good vtubers. But her fat ass still makes me want to forgive her.

That's the gist of it.

>>74348931
I need to see prove of her fat ass

Honestly pretty surprised to see this one. He's worked with other utaites plenty of times though. His recent collab song with Nanawoakari was pretty good. Collabed with Ryushen a bunch. But I feel like his voice is targeted towards listeners that have a vagina.

Mirai Akari and Yozakura Tama were friends.
Alpina and Akari probably know each other from some hiking/touring vtuber circle since there's not a lot of them.

All of Tama/Sio's archives are down the drain now so I can't check if she knew Peaky Hikers before, but I imagine she does.

Not one vtuber I care about and even some I don't know.
It feels like we live in different worlds, but that may be because his perspective as a male vtuber is different, or maybe he is trying to do something more neutral to reach different audiences.

Maybe he should rename it to vsinger discovery or something similar.

There were popular shows to discover musical talents.
That works if he reproduces a similar concept.

>>74368072
She chose this outfit since it looks like the clothes of those girls in the game. Now that I can stare at her boob window, I don't mind the game.

>>74368398
Name vtubers you care about then.

>>74368398
Nah it's fine selection with Aoi, Rieru and Ryushen. Minase I believe is pretty good as well going by the other Neo-porte gen 1s.

>>74368545

What would it accomplish to name them?

>>74367780
Being a rati fan and a numberfag is suffering
the numberfag in me is frustrated in her inability to incline & unwillingness to make use of her connections to shill, leech, whore herself out productively to get those numbers
But the fan in me wants her to stay a mid 3view indie forever because she's so cute and lovely that way

>>74368670
What monstrosity would Rati 4view become?

>>74368555
I am only subbed to 2 of the participants.
Maybe I will discover a new talent.
There was a time when I followed Aoi a bit, but something never connected.

I will check it out but it's on the same day as Kyo and Suu's live event.

>>74368215

>The 21st-century hipster is a subculture (sometimes called hipsterism).[1][2] Fashion is one of the major markers of hipster identity.[3] Members of the subculture typically do not self-identify as hipsters,[1] and the word hipster is often used as a pejorative for someone who is pretentious or overly concerned with appearing trendy.[4]

Penpepepe

Thread mean for discussing JP vtubers. Retard act like a snob, refuse to share who they watch.

>>74368900
She can be in rare occasions.
But I'm sensing an incline.

>>74369433
On this topic I realized something after falling asleep to a Hololive vtuber's stream and checking up the archive later.
They barely get any comments on some of their streams.
There is a bit the effect of not caring that much in a big stream and not caring about the chat because it's so fast, but it seems that many viewers treat it as entertainment only, and having bigger numbers increases that effect.

The result of this may be that as a vtuber grows bigger, they will have a more difficult time of getting more implicated viewers and will have more casual fans.
In that case this creates a strange situation where they may gradually lose their older fans over time, and may lose some of their drive for their activity.

Or maybe that activity moved to twitter instead of youtube. It's strange.

I shared who I watch previously but if I do that you are likely going to attack them which makes it counter productive because those I watch are low on narcissism.

>>74369433
Would you drop her?

>>74369433
Do you doubt her love for singing that much?

>>74370443
Then why did you make the first point about Rikka's choices being a hipster's himself?

>>74370785
That's your projection.
I never said anything about a hipster.
You are the one with a prejudice and projecting that on my comment.

His king contest fails from the start because it does not have the previous contestant who won the title.
Imagine a tournament not inviting the previous winner.
Would you call the winner of that tournament a winner?

That's why I said it would work better as a talent discovery program without the king competition part.

If I can only buy one ticket, should I choose Suu or Kyo?

>>74370764
Nah absolutely not but let's be real she's going to try to do a lot of big boy 3Ds, orisongs and 3Ds
That means less time for the normal streams
It is what it is
>>74370583
I would never drop Rati as long as she never loses her passion for singing
That girl has probably sung more than 1000 different songs and probably 75% of them are requested
She's the best oshi and that's why i shill her everywhere I go
hilariously enough this place and /vsinger/ is really the only place to discuss about her kek

And if we go that route he should invite more of the previous contestants and make it into a proper contest with multiple streams.

That's why the contest part may not be the proper title for this event.

One possibility could be to run a week end event for example with a hundred talents to make it something big. But that's a lot of effort to organize.

The talent discovery concept would be a lot easier to use.

Don't you worry, Rati anon.
She will never incline

Utaites all have to integrate to the streamer sphere one way or another if they want to stay relevant unless you're Strawberry Prince.

GEMS sex bomb is playing Buckshot

>>74372455
Disagree on choga. He has made a name for himself and he gets solid numbers

>>74372588
I mean he started streaming pretty recently and as you said he collabs with Ryushen, there's certainly a memo amongst most big utaites that they must renew themselves as the audience changes.

The only one who stayed a "traditional" utaite and not only didn't decline but grew spectacularly is N-buna.

This modern yugioh is so slop with so many hexes. It's impossible to have a good match up system for beginners.

>>74372881
If suis of yorushika counts than so does ikura of yoasobi but I don't consider either of these singers to be traditional utaites
n-buna is a vocalop
Plenty of vocalop have made it into mainstream without needing the support of the vtuber hobby. For example Hachi, Tatsuya Kitani, etc.

>>74372571

>>74372958
See, there are still a few of them still doing well without having to rely on the streaming circles, but most of the people I used to watch all faded into irrelevancy because they couldn't adapt. I used to love Halyosy's stuff, but haven't heard his name in a long time.

Has anyone in modern Jpop reach 1 Billion view on a song yet?

Btw, haven't checked this song since it released.
Hachi-P still has his magic.

Where did things go wrong for DEV_IS? Why are some of the girls pulling so far ahead? Why is Raden in the lead followed by Hajime? It's understandable that the Korean is in last place, but why is Ririka so far down with her?

>>74373694
The Korean should be first. It's not fair.

>>74373694
There's nothing wrong with some being a head and some behind in a group unless you believe in communism.

>>74373751
I do agree the Korean is very cute, and so is Ririka. And yet they are nearly 100k behind Raden, who deserves absolutely nothing.

>>74373694
Bad marketing. And Kanade isn't realign original songs yet. I assume she's waiting for 3D debut.

It's owari da!

Ririka gave off normie vibes.
A possible bad fit for Hololive's audience.

>>74373694

One of the major advantages to vocaloid is its low barrier to entry. Suddenly you had the ability to make music, with vocals, with only software. This enabled, and continues to enable, new creators breaking out into the scene over and over. It helps to nurture extremely talented producers.
There are two main routes for a vocalop
First route, the Hachi route, involves focusing on work using a real singer. Whether you are Hachi and just decided to start using your own vocals, or you are n-buna, you are, in a sense, moving away from your routes. Stylistically they may be similar, but you are looking to expand your audience and move into the mainstream. You can still hear the similarities between an ayase and yoasobi track, n-buna and yorushika, etc.
The other path involved those who are more dedicated to the niche side of music (otaku core). This is where utaites and vtubers really come in. They continue to write vocaloid songs, but they may even start to write songs specifically for people. However, these people aren't traditional mainstream artists. Think of someone like iyowa writing a song for P-Maru. Or police Piccadilly writing a song for Ado. Some of these songs may get extremely popular, especially in their niche circles, but these vocalop themselves will never truly become mainstream. It's highly likely that it's not even what they want for themselves as artists.
I think utaites who don't write their own music tend to have it the hardest. Way harder than a vocalop. Someone like Eve or Mafumafu has it way easier to try to go the mainstream route, since they are actually songwriters. My biggest problem with Ado is that she lacks a signature style. Because Ado just sings in whatever style the current producer wrote for her. She's super lucky to be where she is today when you consider this. But Ado is the exception and not the reality.

Kanade may be too soothing.
The pink color is too strong!

>>74373958
First impressions are difficult to change.
The impression I had of her was that she was like Kiara.
Trying hard to be popular.

>>74374146
I did not know Pretender was that high in comparison to every other song. RPG is super old relatively so it's funny to see that one there. There's no way Kenshi Yonezu will top himself so it's likely to be some newcomer within the next few years. PPAP for how big of a meme it is, doesn't even scratch these numbers.

>>74373361
>Halyosy
He's still releasing stuff just slowly. One of the recent songs has vocaloid and utaite versions both over 1m.

I wonder if the Mel termination effect can be seen in the sub growth numbers of the last Hololive gen.
Is there a sudden slow down or shift in the sub growth or view numbers from that period?

It had that effect on me.
I watched them a bit, but stopped after that because I didn't want more Hololive vtubers with the risk of a termination.

>>74374295
That's an essay but I think I got your point?
There are people who write and sing their own songs.

There are people who can only write songs. Some of them have Hatsune Miku singing, while some others have Ado singing for them. The ones who write for Ado finds it hard to blow up as their own name.

Is that right?

>>74374146
Funny how the 2nd place is a teaser song for an anime movie so forgettable that none remembers it exists anymore, while the song is still sang to this day.

>>74374146
>barely scratches top 10

>>74374523
I did catch up with his stuff recently and nothing feels quite like the golden age.
Everyone and their mother were covering Blessings and Connecting.

>>74374806
I remember it every single time the song is sang unfortunately. The song is literally the movie.

It's still growing very stable, this meme song.

>>74374295
Ado holds the belief that she is exceptional.
The method didn't matter.

>>74374663
I'd say it's more those who want to break away from vocaloid and move into mainstream vs those who want to stay in otaku core scene (making vocaloid music, vtuber music, etc). In both cases I'm mainly talking about songwriters.

There's a movie called Fireworks?

It's over

>>74375310
It's called 打ち上げ花火、下から見るか。 横から見るか

>>74375153
Ado has a great voice
It's just a shame producers treat her like a vocaloid
case in point: her cover of god-ish
One of the worst ever covers I've ever heard

>>74375469
You could tell me that it was sang by ten different people and I'd believe you.

>>74375202
If they want to move into main stream, they have to find their own Ado or Hoshino Gen?

>>74375469
Why was it bad? I enjoyed the tone change actually.

>>74375645
Pretty much.
>>74375469
Would it be a hot take to say that I wish she would have a dedicated producer and that they would develop a signature style together? Instead of working with 100 different writers.

>>74375399
>Jotaro vs DIO vibes

Reminder that N-buna's oshi is Ponpoko.
Reminder that Hoshino Gen made a reference of Peanuts-kun in a show he hosted with Ado.

>>74375773
But would that behavior make her popular?
Being popular means being everywhere.
How would limiting her content make that a reality?

>>74375821
>>74375399
more like Eren vs Reiner

>>74375821
>When the stands aren't of the same type

>>74375927
Why does having a signature and recognizable style suddenly mean you can't be popular? I think it's separate.

>>74375899
Did Hoshino Gen and Ado sing together?

>>74373694
Raden had novelty buff at her debut phase and she used it well enough.
Ao had the VCR tourists and that birthday meme that she stumbled upon with the help of bigger Holos.
Ririka panders to EN. That's enough said.

>>74374038

>>74376340
view-farming is all the Gooksisters are good for

>>74376547
What does music market even mean? Physical goods?

>>74375704
The vocals while top tier are a fucking mess in a song that was already a mess to begin with
The absolute spaghetti which was her vocals gave me a headache
Whoever put that cover together was more concerned with the vocal flexing than actually making it sound like a song
>>74375773
Hard to say
she's so gifted she can sing anything, any style, she has the aggression, the attitude, emotion, etc etc
basically tailor made to work with a plethora of different people
She already has a signature voice and with that kind of talent, a signature style would kind of restrict her

>>74376139
She got to where she is by doing it her way which means it was successful.
If she wants to be more successful she has to find someone who has more success than her to get good advice or find out what they do differently.

Having a producer with a known pattern will create a limiting factor towards creativity and produce fast food like repetitive content.
Managers in general are the soulless component of a company and destroy what makes something special.

If she wants a signature theme she has to find it on her own and not rely on a manager to get it.
Diluting soul seems to attract more popularity, but the viewers they attract have no long term loyalty.

>>74376671
Based on retail value (all forms of products), but it's still somewhat influenced by the currency strength relative to USD.

>>74376547
Any estimations how many gook farmers are required to loop a song to 1 billion in two years?

>>74376834
Why does he have to be a well known songwriter with an already established pattern? I never said that. Also
>Having a producer with a known pattern will create a limiting factor towards creativity and produce fast food like repetitive content.
That's not how songwriting works and a producer is not a manager in this context, it is their song writer. Music/lyrics/composition/arrangement/mix and any combination therein.
This is already very common by the way. KAF worked with Kanzaki, RIM works with Sasegawa Mao and Guiano, etc. It doesn't make their work suddenly shit.

>>74376996
RIM's boyfriend elevates her work even.

>>74377065
He's a busy man. He's in LA now.

>>74376885
One person can probably do 100 per day with 2 monitors and enough accounts.

>>74377152
Someone let this man know there's a car coming...

>>74377152
The same country RIM lost her innocence...

>>74376996
But it makes it repetitive and limits the reach.
There really is no reason for a song writer limit, the only exception would be if the talent is a song writer too or if they have a great compatibility.

Kanzaki was a good fit for KAF because they are both fucked up for different reasons although KAF seems to try to follow in his steps with self sabotage now which is funny.

I think the talent usually has a good idea of what they want and will find a way to get it.
Working with different artists will enable them to refine their taste by going out from their comfort zone and find what is special for them.

This year may be the best opportunity of decades for an investment in Japan, but you would have to invest into something which will grow in the future.

Reminds me Yoshika was trying to sing a song from Zetsubou sensei in her last stream, but couldn't remember it.

Zetsubou shita!

>>74378432
Hell yes

>>74378432
But will she continue to sing?

>>74378432
>have sex
yes

>>74377836
both currencies are not doing well although Jpy doing slightly worse. still they have followed similar trends

>>74379140
She will continue to have sex with others, that's for sure

The problem is the FED hiking rates aggressively while pretending to fight inflation using fake numbers for the economy and employment which is going to backfire on them spectacularly in the future.
When this joke reverses and their reserve currency status weakens the dollar is going to take a big hit.

I think it's just a question of patience.
They can't fake the numbers forever and will have to choose between mass unemployment or high inflation.

Should I try this series

>Only streams on twitch these days
>Does not link her twitch account on her twitters or youtube channels
Is she really this done with vtubing after Hanayori? She doesnt want to grow anymore?

>>74379770
Sure

>>74379888
It's kinda over...
But maybe the new Sony album will change everything?

>>74380086
Wouldnt that just make her want vtubing less and just return to being utaite/vsinger like she's always been for years?

>>74380185
I mean if you are only talking about growth she can grow in music too.
Crazy to say that she would grow by doing what's she's known for, am I right?

>>74379888
From what I have seen of her, she treats the stgr stuff like her hobby time.
I think she has a mental block of some kind about doing more music. The ideal state is that she doesn't actually stream games anymore and get back to focus solely on music, even though I know some people might miss this side of her.

You should have known by now that Kano is very, very self-sabotaging and number-allergic

>>74379770
A masterpiece of its time.
They don't make things like this nowadays.
Maybe a relic of a better past.

Maybe it's time to re-watch this.
I completely forgot the story.

All I watch now are isekai anime...
It was a strange surprise to see Louise's VA make a dere isekai character.
The world remains the same even if it keeps changing.

The true relic was Doraemon

>>74381473
I don't think it has aged very well

>>74379888
Deer sex but I like vanilla Kano more than Mahoro

>>74381480
To this day I have never watched a single episode of it, until today...
https://youtu.be/xwk5NMDn0w4?list=PLrboHrQZUzS58NUandIYVwmEEXC6GKZWV

I can understand from the first minutes why it would be popular, but it may be difficult to get into it if you didn't grow up watching this.

>>74381794
Fair, deer Kano is cuter. Maybe she could stream with that model instead of Mahoro one

>>74380431
Right, sorry... I was talking more about the vtubing side (which to be fair she doesnt do a lot/less seriously, more as a side hobby thing)

>>74381699
It was a product of its time.
Also was this the anime I kept pausing to read all the translation?

What made it fun was watching it together with /a/...
That time will never come back...

>>74381824
For some people it's their entire childhood.
For Japanese for sure it's something they most grow up watching.
