https://twitter.com/tokino_sora/status/1317971596988932102 Sora herself has stepped up to welcome Coco and Haachama. On top of all the others, Roboco and Shion have also done the same, which adds to nearly all Hololive girls vocally speaking up in support. Subaru, Pekora, and Aqua haven't posted since yesterday's show - they're likely still tuckered out - but I don't imagine it'll be any different with them.

KajiTheMelonMan posted:Is there one of these Holos that are a good starting point? The vtuber wiki seems to give a bit of an overload of info and who to start from. The 5 Hololive English people, Calli, Kiara, Ina, Amelia and Gura, are absurdly popular compared to how recently they debuted (only a bit over a month ago), and I'd say their recent content is intentionally accessible since they were Hololive's first foray into a new market. They mention and interact with their Japanese counterparts often enough it'll probably ease you into it. Also Coco's thrice-weekly "news" show on Hololive, AsaCoco, did a lot to really solidify the idea of there being a Hololive "universe" rather than it just being a disparate grab bag of vtubers, and she just started making those again today. It's not a serious show but it's still probably how a lot of people came to follow Hololive as a whole rather than just individuals. She also writes English subtitles for those herself and people expect that part to continue (though they take a bit to appear)

booksnake posted:Aren't you always doing this any time you use youtube unless you, i dunno, clear your cookies every session? Clicking recommended videos on your homescreen, after a video has played or on the sidebar is a stronger algorithmic reinforcement than just visiting the site and leaving a trail or even just clicking a channel and going through all the videos. Yeah, recommended videos is how people get into vtubers but the recommendation algorithm is literally responsible for all the other awful poo poo on Youtube. Taken as an individual it really doesn't matter what you click on Youtube so you can do whatever but en masse, using their recommendation algorithms is what lets them make buckets of money off your data. It was half tongue in cheek and half serious. If you want to minimize the amount of money that Youtube generates off your usage then navigating directly to a video by link or search generates less useful data for them.

Fubuki is the unofficial queen of Hololive, and seems to act almost like an embassador for the brand. Is that gonna change if she isn't (technically) the most popular member, or will her history and social skills keep her as Hololive's de facto ruler?

Fubuki's position isn't because of her sub count, it's because she works hardest among the Hololivers to support the other girls and even boys.

KajiTheMelonMan posted:Is there one of these Holos that are a good starting point? The vtuber wiki seems to give a bit of an overload of info and who to start from. Amelia Watson, a dective and I suspect who the original leader of the group was supposed to be. She's a gremlin who plays Minecraft basically non-stop Ina, a Cthulu inspired girl who's just super chill and usually draws for streams Gura, a shark girl who's quickly become one of the most popular HoloLive girls. She's bubbly and fun, and also streams Minecraft a lot. Kiara, a Phoenix who is just....Kinda crazy and hyper all the time Mori, a Grim Reaper who is an extremely talented rapper/singer but an anxious mess 100% of the time she isn't singing Then out of the Japanese girls, there's Coco, a Dragon who has an extremely filthy mouth and is fluent in English. She's a natural leader and does a lot of meme-reviews from Reddit along with teaching all the Japanese girls extremely weird/obscene things in English https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcW75aH5WXE Pekora, a rabbit who's some kind of mad genius/prankster and is always terrorizing people in Minecraft. Also very well known for her very distinct laugh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73tdmtX5KXw Karone, a dog who plays the biggest variety of games I've seen yet and is is a living meme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olFtSS55T_I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOxAMlKygBg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkwQ76DgPE8 This video also helped me get familiar with the other girls names/faces along with some clips from most of them. HoloLive is supposed to be a bunch of Idol Groups but most of them are either batshit crazy or total degenerates with maybe less than 5 of them being....actually idol-like

Or English Holos (does such a mass market thing exist?) 3 are basically North American, one is probably a North American in Japan teaching English as a side gig and the last is most likely of Japanese descent and currently lives in Japan, but grew up in Europe? Long story short their streams are generally catered to English viewers, but, knowing that the majority of the fanbase is aware of the main JP branch, so there is some crossover from time to time.

Hololive EN girls are English speaking, though two of them (Calli and Kiara) currently do live in Japan. There's also Hololive Indonesia (all 3) and Hololive China (2 out of 6) who have English speaking talents. Hololive Japan pretty much only has Coco that is fluent in English, but Haachama is learning pretty fast as she currently lives as a student in Australia.
