Which chuuba have dedicated live translators that are present in more or less every stream?
Anyone got a list?
Off the top of my head the holos that have them consistently are:
>Sora
>Subaru
>Mel
>Watame
>Haachama
>Towa
though the towa translator does their translations in a really weird way where it's more of them explaining what she said to you rather than a direct translation.
The above I know for sure to have someone in virtually every stream consistently churning out JP to EN translations. There's some JP to CN for Watame I've noticed too, and I think some JP to ESP for Haachama (I think).

Others seem to have sporadic live translators like Botan (who has some JP to RU translators, unsurprisingly lol), Polka and a handful of others I don't watch all that often.

Lastly if you're an EoP who still hasn't clued in that live translations exist and have been limiting yourself to EN vtubers then lmao at you

Now that you mention it Watame's has been kind of patchy of late as people are probably just busy and the sheep streams for such a loooooooooooooong time. There generally aren't any TL during her Night Fevers but
I have noticed however that when she says something pertinent, say during her long ass post-stream SC readings aka therapy sessions, if there's nobody doing a TL then someone steps in and relays the sagely words of the sheep.
Perhaps your filters aren't picking up the EN tag or whatever variant or you just happen to be watching when there really is nobody bothering to TL.
Generally when a chuuba is playing something like a JRPG they won't get any TL's, and many will bail during SC cept for Haachama's.

I'm too used to using the now unsupported script but if you can fiddle with your program's filters setting then adding the following if they're not already accounted for might help. I think it's just more of a case that you've stumbled into her streams when nobody's around though.

>> No.9429805

>>9429733
Note that if you're using the same script I am then I don't recommend all these filters as it nets in randoms that happen to have a youtube channel and are verified. I keep forgetting to turn that shit off.
If anything these scripts are useful for catching when some other holo talks to another on via live chat.

>> No.9430176

You probably don't need "Author is verified". Lots of holos are not verified anyway, and they are a mod in most other channels. So, "Author is moderator" is enough if you just want to catch other holos.

That's how Polka's translator does it as well. It's basically Polka going on for a couple of minutes and then

> Niels M H - [EN] Polka talking about her day.

...kinda frustrating because Polka is known as one of the harder to follow Holos for anyone with low level Japanese.

One of Coco's dedicated translators now wanders around doing TL's for special streams and he showed up in Polka's latest costume reveal stream and the difference was night and day.

Iirc Cover hired a bunch of the more high-quality translators in the Hololive fandom to be the translators for official stuff like the shows, HoloGra, and even the new site related to HoloAlternative, Holonometria. They've been creditted in the descriptions of each video since the start of August iirc.
There's possibly more but the translators creditted so far and the talents they're devoted to are:
>Desmond Pang/Des P. - Fubuki
>lyger - Matsuri
Note: also creditted for translating some pages in Holonometria
>Jin Teramachi - Okayu
Should note that that the guy is also fairly active on the official subreddit and makes posts correcting and explaining mistranslations made by some more amateur translators (or even outright malicious ones like Iroha)
>IAmVisco - Ayame
Note: also creditted for translating some pages in Holonometria
>BecauseOfReasons - Miko
Note: translates the shows on the official Hololive channel but is also one of the three creditted translators for the bi-monthly Holostars show on the official channel
Note 2: Also creditted as one of two JP->ES translators for HoloGra
>Seele - ??? (I recall seeing their name around but I can't remember which girl they belonged to)
Note: translates the shows on the official Hololive channel but is also of the three creditted translators for the bi-monthly Holostars show on the official channel
>Kaname - Shien
Note: one of three creditted translators for the bi-monthly Holostars show on the official channel
Note 2: possibly ex-Nijisanji official translator (they + J are likely no longer working for Anycolor on official clip/Puchisanji translations since the Nijisanji English official channel has started focusing on the EN girls instead although Rumin is still around)
>Helio4 - ???
Note: possibly Helio Translations
Note 2: creditted as one of two JP->ES translators

I won't deny what he is saying, but Suisei speaks very fast, and most of her streams are extremely chaotic. And the difficulty level is increased drastically whenever she collabs, and then increased more when her partner also speaks fast or in a incomprehensible manner like Miko, and add chaos into the collab.
