I'm kinda hoping Amelia Watson has a British accent.

BTW, I can't believe watching that single 3-second EEKUM BOKUM Korone animation about a week ago has led me down this gigantic VTuber rabbithole, especially at the perfect time to check out the English character debuts. EDIT: I still think Korone will be my fave. Watching her react to the ending of Klonoa was like... "where was she 20 years ago when I wanted to talk about my feelings after beating this game!?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG8n6Pq5P1o JazzFlight fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Sep 12, 2020 |

Phew, I only wanted her to have a British accent if she really had one. I'm glad she dropped it so that she wasn't going to do bad fake cockney all the time.

Hmm... I was kinda hoping she'd be like, the smart one. Right now her vibe is like, squeaky/sensual/babyish. Hmm... dunno. Kinda want her to tone it down. EDIT: I'd never be able to have my speakers up within earshot of a normal person with her. This is way baby kink role-play level. Like FOAM ADVENTURE cringe.

So far I'm liking Calliope and Gura the best from scrubbing around their debuts. I definitely liked their songs the most. It'll obviously shift once they all start playing games and get some memeable clips under their belts. It's early yet. I kinda want the English-speaking ones to let more of their real personality come through instead of having to fall back on forced high-pitch giggles and noises.

I do wish they had taken some improv courses or something to get some "making stuff up quickly on the spot" chops, but it's getting better as they go along. If I were them, I would have developed and memorized my own backstory a lot more to bring up if I was blanking on conversation. It's weird how it seems like they never spoke before this to kind of develop a rapport. It's like they're just tossed right into it cold. Calliope definitely sounds like a normal American anime fangirl. I do like that she has a deeper, more natural speaking voice. I'm also getting to like Kiara now that she's not repeating everything in Japanese. The "mili" thing was pretty funny.

trucutru posted:They obviously didn't rehearse in advance. In a few months or so they are going to be incredibly ashamed of this janky poo poo. I think once these actors get to know each other more and have little inside jokes, they'll be more natural. It's so tough in the beginning where you have awkward pauses because they don't know if they should roll over each other or be more polite.

Bloody Pom posted:I'm actually genuinely worried for her health at this point I'm surprised Hololive is so lenient with how this first day went. Tech issues, awkwardness, etc. I mean, I think that's some of the charm how it shows they are real people behind the characters, just surprising for a Japanese "idol" company.

Lol, playing with keyboard controls and half-asleep, right out the gate she got eliminated and then started spectating but thinking she was playing. She's totally wasted, hahaha, but it's very cute.

Gura did sing Ride on Time entirely in Japanese tho. Course she could have just memorized it phonetically. I know a big reason to not do this is because it's rude, but isn't another reason that some VTubers are from different companies? Like, could Pikamee even crossover with Hololive or is it not allowed? JazzFlight fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Sep 13, 2020 |

In the beginning of this stream she claims that she mixed up the dates and thought that she'd be debuting today (only realized it like a day before). Probably had to scramble and got nervous about having to rush the prep.

Tabletops posted:It's an impossible task but I wish pekos long plays got translated. I get a bit of it and my partner can fill in other gaps but I still miss a lot. Her fallout and deaths stranding streams are both good Their auto-CC for English at least is way better than years ago. If the person is speaking clearly (and doesn't have a heavy accent), it's pretty good for following along. All they need to do is combine their translation service with the auto-generated CCs.

Wow, didn't realize Hololive put out a free AR camera app with no in-app purchases. It's really cool having Korone standing around in my room. Wish there were a few voice clips, though. iOS: https://apps.apple.com/jp/app/id1459233516 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.hololive.life

I also can't stress enough how wonderful that English only Mario stream was earlier this week. I've already rewatched a lot of it multiple times. Meatballs, Vegetable Flower, Three Brothers, Independence Day, Have Confidence/No Confidence, whispered FAQ... it's just packed with memes.

Civia's streaming now and I kinda wish she had been one of the 5 Hololive EN (not to throw shade at any of the real ones in particular) just because I think she speaks very naturally.

LOL, in Korone's live stream of an incredibly hard Famicom game right now, she just asked for support from her overseas viewers in English, but it came out as asking for our souls. I think she's revealed the endgame now, moving from yubis to human souls.

In Korone's game, I feel like that final area is just completely impossible without tool assist (or playing for days and days and days). She's been going 6 hours and it's gotta be mental torture doing this...

LOL, kinda related to VTubers, I just got a new $20 webcam from Amazon and spun up Facerig which I got through some bundle a while back. Bought the $4 Live2D DLC and became an anime. Pretty cool and the tracking is comparable to real VTubers. I was impressed by the pupil tracking, which can dart all around as you look at different parts of the screen.

Merv Burger posted:This almost sounds like BarbarousKing Frankly, all of her little 2D puppet shows with drawings and clip art are absolute gold. The very last 30 seconds of her streams are hilarious because she goes offscreen and does one last joke moving the drawings around without her. In her 800k subscribers stream, she had the viewer head laying on its back with a liquor bottle in its mouth, then she X'd out the eyes, then 10 seconds later adjusted the opacity of the head so that it became a ghost.
