I had Gura's stream open on my monitor and was browsing Twitter on my phone and an auto-playing video preview of an Eekum Bokum meme was syncing up with the music somehow.
man I really hope this whole vtuber thing is less exploitative than traditional idol work is so I can enjoy all these memes without being jaded and cynical about how everything is terrible

BTW during Coco's last Meme Review there was some goddamn magic:
watch how immediately the superchats in yen with the "superchatto time" flood in.
excellent cross-cultural roasting

Poor Coco. Like I remember a couple weeks ago when she was very polite and it was a brief note on, "Oh guys don't worry about it, Japan has its own memes you don't have to try and make some for us." And it's increasingly gone down this hill of "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS 'JAPANESE'?!"

Nijisanji seems about as good as a corporate environment can be nowadays, but only because a couple talent literally sat down to do a light protest stream in which they brought up some grievances
It seems to have had the desired effect and they've recently announced a dedicated team for protection of talent from slander and harassment
Cover corp is...mixed, as we saw with the Aloe thing
They're good about encouraging talent to take breaks, they Try* to discourage marathon streams
*if korone wants to play cho aniki for 11 hours nobody can stop here

I quickly learned that listening to the EN debut streams. There are slots that the vtubers sign up for, with blocks? Very interesting system, so kind of like contractor gigs that you make as much as you output.

Oh god, so some of them have been getting back into Minecraft. Aqua is streaming it right now, and so is Pekora, but Pekora's stream has "TNT" very clearly in her stream title and she is running around in the game with a TON of the stuff. I can't help but think disaster is on the horizon.
She was actually shocked by the Princess being in another castle. That's shocking to me, somewhat. Some of her idiomatic expressions were quite good, too.
I discovered both Korone and Pekora through Okayu, and kind of like both of them better? Okayu is very lowkey so I definitely feel like she shines better in collabs than she does on a solo stream

I'm really loving the personalities they've gathered. They compliment each other really well.

Maneater, though. Manhunt is... not exactly her vibe. Kind of Calli's vibe, though. Or Suisei's for that matter...
Apologies. Shark open world chompy game that I really want to play but isn't on Steam. I was so hoping she'd succeed at getting those gators though!
I think that means I should go to sleep.

That game looks like an open world shark simulator, apparently narrated by Jerry from Rick and Morty?

Also I love her Taco Bell story.
Edit - hahahahaha right on cue.
Botan is building a new PC and talks about various specs:
More of that stuff:
Polka has an inspirational story for anyone who thinks they couldn't make it as a streamer:
I love them both.
And here's them discussing it directly:
Korone tried an english only stream; she's been talking about improving ao she can be friends with HoloEN
How'd it go?

I felt like so much of a nerd on Saturday watching 8 hours of vtubers, but being there for the group energy with all of the debuts was a lot of fun.
Yeah that and the time she called fireballs meatballs really got me.
Ti... Wasuretiyo~
She graduated college!
