Are there any EOPs here with a Japanese oshi?
If so, why? What's the appeal if you can't understand their streams?

my oshi was lulu. You dont need to understand every sentence of her when she is playing to enjoy the stream.

One of the current hot topics in this place is some EN clipper drama. People don't even watch english streams, the content they go by to find their oshis will have subtitles anyway.

Other than Zatsudans and text-heavy RPGs, Korone streams are easy to enjoy since they're like 35% cute noises and the JP audiance doesn't even seem to understand what she's on about some of the time. She just plays games and has a fun time, with occasional moments of English.

I watch a few others. Nene loves interacting with her overseas fans via TTS in superchat readings, and those interactions can be hilarious. Watame has dedicated fan translators, so with the Hyperchat plugin you can understand the most important bits, plus she has a comfy voice anyway.

Actually, does anyone know any other JP vtubers that have a decent number of fan translators?

Onigiriya here, I just really like her voice and reactions. I rely on live TLs and that kind anon who posts qrds on /mogu/ as well as the better clipfags who focus on Okayu.
I started my reps after subbing to her but I'm too depressed to continue them nowdays

Even though I'm an ESL who's second language is not Japanese, I still find my oshi (Suisei) more entertaining than all of holoEN combined. She also has easy-to-read emotions while streaming, that helps too.

Got the impetus to do japanese reps since at the time english niji clips that weren't hana became pretty sparse. And wanting to watch more lulu gave me some impetus. Now it works to just watch more japanese clips of a bit of everything as a baseline. Cool to catch up on Yashiro, Ars, and other shit I've missed over some months. Also kinda like some of the ways the japanese do their subtitling.

I don't speak Japanese but the closest thing to an oshi I have is probably Marine though this is a recent development.

I guess if not Marine then Amelia. But not really "Amelia", if her roommate still streamed, not even as a vtuber, I'd watch her regularly too.

Despite not doing any nihongo reps, years of watching subbed anime and months of watching JP chuubas has allowed me to pick up the gist of what they're saying. Context from playing a game or doing some other common activity helps, though, I do struggle if its a zatsudan or donation reading.
My oshi is Coco, so that's kind of cheating since she's fluent in both english and japanese

(You) fucking Donkey. You wouldn't even be here enjoying your EN pigs. Without us, the JP enjoyers. I despise your kind. Just a bunch of bandwaggoning losers.

Serious answer. I like the Cute noises, Cute greetings, and I like moe anime shit. Basically your Funimation dubb EN vtubers are inferior.

I have been on-and-off self studying japanese. I know Grade 1,2,3,4,5 Kanji. All N5 and some of N4 Kanji. Which amounts to over a thousand Kanji I can recognize and mostly read. I listen to podcasts every night while sleeping to improve my listening reps. I watch vtubers to increase my native compression. I can understand over 50% of every stream I watch. Even with all these reps. I fail at having proper grammar. I can't construct simple sentences. And the Jap vocabulary is too much so, that I've already given up. Basically, I will never be japanese and that applies to you too.

I've watched enough of my oshi that I started to understand the meaning of her sentences without clearly understanding each individual word.
I hear some combinations of sounds I've heard before and with the context I started getting the meaning of them and it got better with time. I didn't learn Japanese, but I did learn Polk I suopse.
