Holy hell. I got a new laptop, where I can finally have a few more options when it comes to games. Binged Rimworld for a few days, and I check back on my usuals and suddenly there's freaking fire on the VTuber scene.
hololive just can't catch a break.
That's all I say on the matter, especially when it comes to the most recent mess. Seriously. It's political, so if there's anyone who actually knows what I'm talking about, keep that in mind please.

So, are they actual people behind the AV's?

So, are they actual people behind the AV's? Yeah there are actual people doing the things. It can be hard to notice until they do something “weird”. Like for example, I recently saw a video of Korone during which she leaves her desk to go grab a snack and the tracking software for her avatar just straight up loses her, so it just kinda starts listing to one side with a blank expression on its face until she comes back and sits down.

Hail the DOOG.
So, apparently, there's an easter egg in the new Doom DLC where pressing X a few times will flash the image DOOG in the screen.

Well, hell. It's more or less official.
Gawr Gura has hit 1 million subscribers. By far the fastest growing VTuber. From Hololive as well, Fubuki and Korone are on their way to that 1m as they're at 900k, while Pekora is at around 800k.

Is the fox in the bar in this video considered a VTuber?

hololive has had one hell of a rough series of weeks lately, but something a bit on the bright side. Gura of hololiveEN, and then hololive's Korone and just recently Fubuki has hit 1 million youtube subscribers. One heck of a milestone. Among the VTubers of this VTuber boom, there had been two before; Kizuna AI, and Kaguya Luna.

Also, here's Mori's stream of it. Korone was the one defusing the bomb and Mori reading the manual, but they've switched places right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q80NAQON3mgBasically, if it's Korone's turn to disarm, she has to speak in English. If it's Mori's turn, she has to speak in Japanese. Hmm. 54 minutes in, and now Mori's and Korone are back to English while Mori is still the one defusing.

Some VTuber news for the past week or so:
-New English VTuber talent agency; VShoujo. Several EN VTubers, like Projekt Melody are confirmed to join. P.S. NSFW warning for those unfamiliar with Melody. -Gawr Gura has hit 1.5m subscribers. -Nijisanji is now holding auditions for their upcoming English branch.

Not just melody VShoujo overall is much more " lewd".

Sorta recently, it's become a trend to ask VTubers, mostly the hololivers it seems, their opinion on pineapple on pizza. Here's a compilation of it.

Alas, Mori Calliope begs Atlus to let her stream Persona 3, but it seems it's a no go.
So, as a consolation, here's Calli singing the battle song of P3.

Some more hololive stuff this week:
-Kinda missed it out the previous time I posted since I was busy, but the second wave of hololive Indonesia is happening now, and hololive is looking for an EN branch of singers. -Usada Pekora becomes the fourth Hololive member to hit 1m subs this week, joining EN's Gura, and JP's Korone and Fubuki.
In general, interest in VTubers has really been booming lately. Like, I recall last year when there was a playlist of translated VTuber stuff was at around 1000-2000 videos. One year later, and there's three playlists which is now at around a total of 14-15k - and that doesn't really have all the subbed stuff, not to mention the rise of EN VTubers.

Video has been privated, but here's a couple of minutes of Mori Calliope begging Atlus to let her stream Persona 3. 2 minutes out of nearly an hour and a half of begging.

Some Nijisanji news. Nijisanji itself has announced that the Nijisanji subreddit is now official. A couple of their VTubers even made posts with a short video introducing themselves in English. Most people are guessing that this is partially due to them holding auditions for their EN branch some time ago.
