Well, considering her recent stream, Polka seems to be into books and poetry, so she might be one to consider.

Probably Choco since she gave the quiz about knowledge, then Kanata who scored the highest by a mile.

I remember hearing a vtuber is rumoured to be a lawyer or in law due to impressive recall of Japanese law and I refuse to do any further research because I want to believe

What is the point of kanji when even native japanese go "loving KANJI??"

It is useful to make lovely puns and lovely puns are vital for japanese comedy.

She's one of the Nijisanji IDs, that's for sure. I'll see if I can dig up her name/channel.

Edit: found her

I wish the ID Vtubers got more attention, they really are some hidden gems. Most of them tend to be English-bilingual as well.

e: Come to think of it, getting into Vtubers has really made me notice how English has become the online lingua franca for just about everywhere except Japan.

Yea she was either born there or lived there for her a while but she has been living in Japan for like 3+ years. I can't really debate this further due to it involving her past streaming stuff but even if she grew up in America she is still a Japanese person very tapped into Japanese culture who is living in Japan. It's not like they took Coco off the streets of Georgia

edit: like I'm confident.coco being "bad" at Japanese is a bit...

In one of the streams talking about her dad seemingly going senile, I'm pretty sure she also mentions her mom considering moving back to USDA. Japanese father and American mother sounds likely to me.

drat, I'll have to watch that later. I'm glad it's not EU4, and especially not a full campaign, because that would be the end for me. I'd never be able to escape the rabbit hole after that.

Just putting that out there, for any vtubers who might be lurking around here. Please don't play EU4. That's Europa Universalis Four. My one and only weakness.

I can't wait to entertain you.
I’ve somehow fell into a Hololive hole this past week thanks to YouTubes recommendations and stumbling across this thread.

FWIW Coco deserves all the hype. I don’t know if it’s due to her possible Atlanta upbringing, but I constantly get Adult Swim vibes from her. Something in the Atlanta water I guess. At her best, the whole vtuber setup, boundary breaking and flippant joke tone reminds me of the madness of Space Ghost, which I guess is a high compliment.

Huh? Most rest of Asia and a whole host of other places communicate almost entirely in their own languages as well, English might be the most common language on the internet but most of the internet does not consist of English or English speakers.

I don't really get where you're getting this "everywhere except Japan" thing when places like say China are right there next to 'em.

You're right, this was a pretty dumb observation to make. Chalk it up to me being mentally exhuasted from work when I posted it :shobon:
