Gura and Ame might be my favorite pair in the EN squad, even when they're not doing a collab stream lol

Here's a couple remix contest entries that have a weirdly low number of views relative to how well-executed they are:




I literally cannot go through all of them with how many there are. Not without dropping everything else in the day, lol. Unfathomable.

Edit: Throwing in another. Why not?

Ame & Gura: both sleep deprived for their streams today

Also Ame & Gura: both played a lot of minecraft both on and off-screen yesterday

Coincidence?

VOMs seems pretty Indie though I guess. Looks more like a collective than straight up corporations like Nijisanji, upd8 or hololive.
Little VOMS Project is such a "one-man show" (literally, in case of its sole manager) it doesn't even register yet in the most recent Japanese 'VTuber' companies valuation data and investors information compiled by INITIAL, Inc. through its market analysis:

If we're only so lucky. I wonder if they're going to meme or just do a low key thing when they able to stream again?
I'm expecting a low-key approach, if only because management will probably impose it. Inciting a new heightened response of the 'antis' immediately after things settling down a bit (during the timeout) could make the whole process of "defusing the situation" go to total waste.

So despite the western perception Nijisanji is still by far the biggest Vtuber company out there. Interesting.

I wonder if the success of HoloEN is giving Nijisanji some thoughts. I know they have an english division but it's a rebranded india division iirc.

They'll definetly try but after a 3 weeks abscence and given their popularity i don't think that'll be an easy task. They'll get attention.

Man, Kiara and Subaru are so natural together. I can't believe this is their first time doing collab.
She even called Subaru "omae" lol
It's like they are sisters
She doesn't use keigo with Subaru at all like any others would when talking with a senpai.
Also I like how Kiara just speak Kansai-ben sometime.

No idea what's being said but you can tell they just mesh. Also it was pretty obvious that Kiara was the most fluent in Japanese out of EN before, but wow you can really tell now how good she is in this environment.

And of course Huke-papa wasn't going to miss this.

I'm a little worried antis might latch on to this, thinking the newbie is being too disrespectful to her senior or whatever.

So I started watching last week...
Here's my experience so far:
Day 1: *clicks on a Suisei video recommended in my feed* Whoa! Those are pretty good Tetris skills.
Day 2: Oh, she's doing some collab videos too. Maybe I should check them out.
Day 3: OKAKORO MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS
Day 4: I keep hearing this strange laugh in my sleep with visions of arrows. Oh well, might as well watch more since I can't sleep anyway.
Day 5: Maybe I should expand to Nijisanji vtubers too...
Day 6: Oh there's an ERA thread. *proceeds to start reading from the beginning*
Day 7: *Feeling of dread sinks in as I realize how deep I am into the rabbit hole*

I fear the day Hololive EN Gen 2 is announced. I might have to quit watching actual anime to make time for more vtubers. And when Gen 3 comes out...might have to quit video games too.

This was already the case for me before JP Gen 5...
I hope the EN girls start collaboring soon with the ID branch, Risu and Iofi need more love
I think there was tentative plans to do a big Among Us collab after their month-long debut isolation was up with the other English speakers? So probably waiting for Coco and Haachama (I guess?) at this point to make a full group of 10.

I think it is kind of expected for westerners to not be good at keigo. I wouldn't be surprised if that is a limitation in Kiara's Japanese.

Proper manners in Japan can be complicated beyond the basics.

Question: Does Pekora jump everywhere in Minecraft because it's some pro-gamer move to go faster, or is it because she's a rabbit?

Pekodam gonna be the weapon to surpass Metal Gear. Peko Minecraft streams are really fun and chill.
Also Moona traveling across the map to get a dog and then gifting it to Peko was really cute.
