My biggest takeaway from this video is that they probably should have chosen a name for their project that was easier for the talent to pronounce.

Her current visa is a one time thing that can never be granted again, for everything else she would have to get a work visa I guess and not sure how much pull Cover has with such things.

She is directly working for a Japanese company. She has a really good case.

I've been seeing rumors that Monoe was on a weed during a Getting Over It endurance stream and that was the supposed breach of contract.

IIRC Cover can sponsor it just fine but she wants to be home for a while.

And in any case as far as I'm aware most visa applications have to be done in your country's embassy and she does have the start the process again because a working vacation visa is not the same as a work visa.

Yeah I think Kiara's mentioned that she's pretty homesick. I think she just wants to be home and I can't blame her, being stuck in a foreign country for a year during the pandemic, cut off from so much, couldn't have been a great experience.

Once the pandemic wanes and international travel opens up again I believe Kiara would be fine doing visits to Japan from time to time. Not sure if she would want to move there again, but if she did I think she would have a pretty easy time getting Cover to sponsor her.

ive figured out why monoe was terminated and wanted so strongly to let people know she was healthy. her magnetic powers are getting out of hand and she was behind the recent earthquakes in japan. gyari pikamee and tomoshika all wanted to find a way to contain or stifle her power but there means were too limited and her powers growing too quickly. monoe is now being contained in a magnetic stifling chamber lined with a foot of composite bismuth and pyrolytic graphite while the japanese goverment considers what to do with her. as it stands she refuses to be killed and the government knows that that isnt even an option cuz she would win if they showed any aggression. current primary option is to resume containment while they work with elon on getting monoe on the first ship to mars to bolster mar's magnetic field and re-melt the core to protect from cosmic radiation aswell as shield that first colony ship from aforementioned radiation. at a much lower weight cost. rest assured monoe may sadly be no longer able to give us a smile but she will be instrumental in the advancement of humanity stepping to other worlds.

From my understanding, these are actually really hard to get, ESPECIALLY if your primary form of entertainment is "streamer." Cover can absolutely get that work visa, but it apparently requires a lot more than "They work for us. Give them a ticket."

Changing the trigger buttons to "press every button" allows you to do holds easier, on top of the more obvious allowing you to hit all 4 buttons at the same time easier. That's the macros, pretty sure.

The survivor of the tapioca incident Sara Hoshikawa is doing some midnight 3D Little Nightmaring. She's definitely one of the Nijisanji members looking to expand their EN audience.

A smart move, seeing how much Hololive exploded last year by embracing the foreign fanbase. HAACHAMA and Coco were very instrumental in bridging the language barrier for a lot of people, so having Sara help fill that role to get more foreigners to watch Niji streamers may be late to ride the wave, but will put them in a much better position for NijiEN to get more exposure when they debut.

It's kinda of interesting to see how if Gura's in the middle of saying something when the song starts, she just kind of shuts off the moment the game actually requires input from her.

Gura just mentioned she wants to try using an eye tracker while doing this to actually record what her eyes actually pay attention to while all this is going on and it made me wonder if it's even possible for her to do that and use her vtuber avatar at the same time

e: I'm might be too used to seeing versions of that that involve glasses and not the ones that'd just work like another webcam
