Saw kakage's Suisei art yesterday and thought it was odd that he hadn't designed anyone's vtuber avatar yet.

He's mostly known in the GBF community as the biggest Rosetta fan, but he's also a huge Towa fan and even drew the trophies for the Hololive Mario Kart tourney that Towa ran.

Anyway, someone on reddit seems to have read my mind and posted this. Seems like Cover has had this in their back pocket for over a year now.

https://mobile.twitter.com/kakage0904/status/1240914484417327104

Makes me wonder what other designs they have stored away.

There is at least one more that is openly known. https://www.reddit.com/r/Hololive/comments/ki65yw/i_always_wondered_what_covers_plans_were_on_these/ No one is really sure if they have a bank of avatars stored or if these were just ones that were created but somehow fell through as far as use. I think the HoloEN models were created by the artist but with feedback from each of the members so maybe they changed formats. You can see the full models on Hololive's audition page. https://www.hololive.tv/characteraudition

Originally back in gen 1 they had the characters predesigned so I wouldn't be surprised if they had avatars left over from previous eras where they were more authoritarian regarding their talents looks.

We know from the Gen3 casting call that they were predesigned up to that point. The call for those two (march 2020) happened before Gen5 (august 2020), which didn't have a casting call. So presumably they got a bunch of promising people and changed plans.

If anyone else is watching the Gura Unarchived Karaoke its SO scuffed.

For her "last song" (after like 4 attempts) she decided against "Whole New World" and decided on "September"

but she kept drifting into the Macross Delta mashup and decided to stop and just try to sing the Macross Delta Song "rune ga pikatto" alone,

and NOW she's just looking for a totally different song to be her last.

I feel like there's an odd narrative that Cover is some kind of evil slavemaster corporation headed by a cackling Yagoo in a devil suit who tricks its talent into signing one-sided blood contracts, instead of them being a sometimes-incompetent talent agency that has hosed up badly several times in the past and has probably decided that discretion is the better part of valor..

What can I say? Most of us are in America where that's exactly how the job would've been? :v:

It could also be a slow corporate culture that can't keep up with how quickly their own talent moves/develops, and who are scared to rock a boat after the China stuff as well. :shrug: We may never know, at least until my falsetto-girl persona gets picked up for Gen2 and I start leaking details. :v:
