    also Indonesia's population is way bigger than most people realize (270 million) so the potential audience is not insignificant, plus in recent years it's become a pretty big hot spot for anime and gaming in general

    sizable market that hasn't been saturated yet, plenty of room to establish yourself and grow with the still developing culture boom

    That’s so interesting! I had no idea Indonesia was that big

    Well that and the linguistic diversity explains a lot

    Why does Hololive have an Indonesian branch BTW?

    Not saying they shouldn't, just seems kinda random? Like why not the Philippines? I know their Chinese branch had trouble, and I could understand why Korean might be a problem.

    Does Indonesia just love Vtubers? Nijsanji has Indonesian streamers to right?

    Most spoken languages in the world:

    1 English 1,132M
    2 Mandarin Chinese 1,117M
    3 Hindi 615M

    So its probably a matter of the most coverage.

    Not to a notable degree anyways; they speak more Dutch than Hindi


    Also there was a government 'dissuasion' about speaking Chinese for 20 years so it is also not that popular

    a small amount of punjabi is apparently spoken though

    but english is the closest to a lingua franca in Indonesia

    It's still bahasa indonesia, but in recent years English has become so common place that certain linguists have stopped considering it a Foreign Language and more like an Additional Language

    I saw that Indonesia has like, 600 languages. Which makes sense given the geography of the nation.

    It's a super interesting nation to learn about. Sadly the government there seems kinda terrible, but that's par the course these days.

    It's closer to 750, the only other nation more linguistically diverse is Papua New Guinea

    I caught the end of her playthrough and it sounded like she was tearing up when the end credits hit.

    But, yeah, it'd be neat to know her actual thoughts on the game.

    I refuse to believe the people in chat were being unironic. There's no way there's that level of pedantry over the pronunciation of Pikachu.

    English speakers throw hissyfits over gif and pecan, i absolutely believe Japanese speakers have equally strong opinions about equally meaningless pronunciations

    also, native Japanese speakers can get fucking NUTTY about their pitch accents in general. you can take a word with two possible accents and get 5 different opinions about how to pronounce it
