Interesting, that means Hololive's campaign and the Vshojo/Arcadum campaign are starting at pretty much the same time. Two VERY different campaign energies that I am 100% there for. Like, might have to catch live instead of VOD or clipped levels of hype.

Edit: also, the use of "the tabletop RPG" is interesting, because that almost certainly means it isn't DnD. It's the assumed default, and they'd just out and say it if it was. Calli has WoD experience, so that could be it, but I could also see 1: a weird left-field game that was a sponsor or 2: reskinning something to be the (unofficial) Hololive RPG. Though that may be me getting ahead of myself.

Call of Cthulhu, obviously. Ina will be the villain.

It looks...

Odd?

Like too small.

I think it's her head? The new look is thin and her head is gigantic. Probably because of the giant mass of tentacles she had before.

Does australia *wink* have good 5g coverage or something?

They've kind of stalled out lately, but originally yes. They had some of the best in the world due to their small size.

Though ironically one of the best countries for 5g is... actual Australia.

Though I assume this goes out the window once you leave the cities.

I was surprised how big the difference was between Calli (130k) and Kiara/Ina. I wonder if it's mostly just a matter of time zones since Calli's was much more ID/JP friendly.

Kiara and Ina are also the lowest 2 subbed and such of EN. Gura will probably be a rather better way to determine if it's time zones.

Are the HololiveEN girls actually from the west/live there?

Depends on how you define west, I guess? Calli explicitly lives in Japan The Underworld under Japan, but her stories make it rather clear she's not from there. Kiara lived in Japan but went back to her home country of Austria Australia. Ina, Gura, and Amelia are a bit more nebulous, but at the very least the latter two are clearly westerners.

The whole ok to collab with Coco thing at the same time makes me think that EN as a whole, was still under some sort of collab restriction.

Coco problems probably come in under the hatespammers problems, which recently Youtube finally managed to fix, so that might just be coincidental timing instead.

Falls Down Stairs posted:

I was genuinely kind of wondering if Ame or Gura would do something with Vshojo first because it's sounded on Nyanners' end like she's on good terms with Gura and (past life spoiler-y) both Ame and Gura were effectively hired out of the same loose circle of streamers that eventually became Vshojo

HoloEN/Coco interactions though? are something I've been looking forwards to forever


Ina defaults to Canadian measurements and has offhandedly mentioned there being -40C winters when she was growing up, she's almost certainly Canadian (not to mention sounds extremely Canadian to my Canadian ears)

(people have claimed this about Gura too but she can't remember whether kilometers or centimeters are bigger off the top of her haid)

Ame and Gura meanwhile just have vaguely US vibes (and their being there that makes sense of their streaming times), whereas Calli being in Japan and Kiara being in Europe is fairly explicitly established

Temperature or not, she's mentioned winters where her hands turned blue from the cold.

Thankfully I've only see a few people in Coco and Watame's streams talking about Ina. Lots of people calling for Fubuki to roast Ina for oversleeping but its 6am in Japan right now. She's probably still asleep.

So what you're saying here is that EN needs their own Fubuki

If you listen to A-chan's holotalk episode sora and her looked for companies to achieve Sora's idol dream and then joined Cover. Tanigo was open to the idea to go as a tech company into entertainment, which is opposite of a random happenstance but a deliberate decision. So Cover itself goes againdt your point that ~japanese companies~ abhor change. Some enlightened westerner should go back to the 1960s and tell Japan to stop modernizing as it is actually in their nature to always play it safe.

To be fair if a tech startup tried to adhere to Japanese companies abhoring change they'd die very very quickly.

It’s also funny that Gura’s song directly addresses the theme of character duality that is core to Haachama, but Gura doesn’t seem to care about that part of her character theming?

e: Like the song writing is based off who the characters were originally written as and not the way they actually portray themselves.

She's credited in the lyrics, though. It had to have been at least something she liked.

Vtubers do full length JRPG runs all the time. Pekora especially tends to play through entire full length 50+ hour JRPGs in like a week of streaming tops, with multiple 5-8 hour streams days in a row; off the top of my head, she's done this with Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2, FFX, and multiple Dragon Quest games. Kiara has also been doing the same recently, doing an entire playthrough of Yakuza 7.

It's fine if it's not your bag - it's not mine either - but there's absolutely a big audience for it.

None of those are remotely as long as a persona game might get, though. Unless you start rushing through things Persona games get LONG. Like the only game that might be up there (that was definitely not played) is the original DQ7.

Disgaea 6 got a bunch of Hololive cameos. Even here. So it's not unlikely. Different publisher I know but still.

Probably more effort to make a full costume in tales than to make an entire collection of characters in disgaea.
