watched a Polka stream today and realized she still uses the cheering animation I made a long time ago, and moves her head along with it at the start of her streams sometimes 🥹

in 15 minutes ina's finally premiering the MV for her second original, which you may have seen her perform live, now featuring fancy art by ina
Mint and Matara talking about weird/shitty old jobs (not those old jobs) was a good episode.

Yeah, after the last thing with Niji when my partner went to apply, we're kind of steering away from them. Bad experience all around.
Also, sad they lost the sajam thing despite they were one of the better players in the tournament. But we have two whole new levelerless controllers (so we don't have to drag the dragon around to MAG) and so much free chipotle. We also had ice cream after.

This is how I found out that walfie is also a vtuber and not just a fanartist lol
I wouldn't put it past Riku to try some shitty AI Vtubers. You don't have to pay them. They don't need time off. Most importantly for him, they are the perfect puppets that will absolutely not betray him. An assumption that will likely get proven wrong if he does go this route, given how quickly these things tend to go off the rails and Riku strikes me as one of those tech bro assholes that will spend the bare minimum.
I wish I could say I was surprised that they found enough people willing to sign their well being away for a potential shot at fame. Granted, I suppose they could have already had this wave stuck in a contract by the time all the Dokibird shit hit, followed by all the other Niji fails. It's just unfortunately, there are plenty of people that still want to believe that Anycolor isn't a super shitty company and that they'll be the one to make it big as part of NijiSanji.
That said, I hate to say this, but given how fuck awful Anycolor is towards the people they hire. Part of me really hopes it is shitty AI Vtubers because I'm pretty sure it will blow up in Anycolor's face, while also meaning that they are getting new people to fuck over.
Well, on AI, we can say that is very likely that Niji is getting VTuber names from ChatGPT (Yes, they are submitted by the talents, but yikes).
They have a debut song and some fanfare, so I guess that someone there noticed how hard NijiEN got shat on over how they treated TTT. It saddens me, but doesn't surprise me, what people are willing to do for fame, Claude "We could just fucking ask" (For the Play Buttons) is a recent example.
Cemetery looking gates as a teaser for your next wave when your ex-livers have done attempts is pretty fucked up.
Can we seriously try to stick to real things to be mad at them about? "These gates could theoretically be for a cemetery," is not a real thing to be mad about, that's silly. They already have a Ghost Vtuber, even if they did another one, that STILL wouldn't be in bad taste, that's very unreasonable. "I'm sorry, you can't ever do a monster or undead theme again because I've drawn a connection that is absolutely not there and made myself very mad about it." If the theme of this generation was "Dragon Murderers" then it would make sense to be mad about it. The actual theme is... Victorian clothing? No theme at all, because even the actually liked Niji EN waves had loose to no theming (light characters like a mermaid vs dark characters like... a penguin)? This trio is almost certainly being sent out to die, they don't really need to be pushed into the grave faster by inventing made up reasons to hate on their marketing.

Maybe an influx of new people will allow some of the more toxic old people to leave? I don’t know what the NinjiEN gameplan is but their money/viewership situation seems fucked and (very slowly) getting worse.
Wouldn't matter if an influx of new people pushed all the old talents that are actually toxic people to work with out. I mean, it would somewhat help, but you'd just get a new crop of them and they would be fully enabled, if they earned Riku enough money because a fair bit of the rot starts with him.
Literally, only way that NijiSanji could be salvaged is if some other company gained ownership of them and the new owner had no issues going through all the documentation and cutting the toxic people they identify and making it clear that if they missed anyone, they will kick those people and new toxic people, once they become aware of them.
I'd need more details because I do know there is a lead up any of these waves dropping and I think that is one feature of vtubing that Anycolor is still following. So again, these three might have already been locked into a contract by the time anyone found out what happened to Selen. Also like other past talents, they might not feel like they can break the contract and avoid having Anycolor finding some way to absolutely fuck with their ability to be continue being vtubers.
As for the theme. I don't think anyone is saying it's the talent's fault, it's not, the blame clearly falls at Anycolor's feet. I still can't get past how Anycolor continues to show how piss poor their PR people are. Just checking the Twitter link to see what the design theming is here. I do have to wonder why no one in Anycolor bother to say "Hey, given that we've had some issues with suicide, not to long ago, maybe our lead off to our first wave after the incident shouldn't have any visuals that could be tied cemeteries or otherwise easily be misconstrued as us making fun of that incident? Especially, when the character designs show that we could easily do without it. Like FFS we have an ojou, what could be considered her bodyguard who is a ronin and her maid. Sure gates can be associated with high society in addition to cemeteries, but you could also use a castle silhouette or a mansion one to get the same effect and you can make them look creepy if the ojou is suppose be a vampire, while the other two are just other supernatural creatures frequently associated with vampires. This is a rack we could have easily sidestepped; especially, since we were the damn idiots that decided to throw it out on the ground before us."
Only three NijiEN waves have had themes, with two of those being basically the same theme--"students of a supernatural school"--and the other--superheroes--being associated with JP waves debuting around the same time as well. Suddenly expecting a theme for this, the 10th wave of NijiEN and what is now the 7th without a unified theme, is extremely weird, especially when the previous wave didn't have a theme (or a group name or debut song, but that's besides the point). And similarly I can't imagine how anyone at Nijisanji would have guessed people would have shit their pants over them picking a random gate asset they slapped their logo on as a teaser image, the logical leaps needed to make it into a problem™ are staggering.
Like don't get me wrong, all Anycolor is doing right now is sowing seeds in a field that's covered in weeds and whose soil no longer has any nutrients. The weeds aren't going to voluntarily leave and they need to actively pull them to get rid of them but it doesn't seem like they're interested in doing that. The soil isn't going to recover on its own and they need to make an extraordinary effort to make it into something nurturing rather than draining, but it doesn't seem like they're interested in doing that. But maybe a gate is just a fucking gate and not a secret taunt or PR blunder or whatever other grievance a drama tuber can invent to drive clicks.

Am I the only one who found that lore video lacking in any actual lore and kind of incomprehensible? I get the emotional tone it is trying to go for but like what is actually happening. IRyS and Mumei were out wandering around and walked into the National Park that Fauna was watching a live stream of so the rest of Promise goes and joins them and then they make a flower crown and then they all move out of their streamer house???

also yeah nah, one shitty vtweeter making a shockingly bad taste/bad faith comparison does not actually make this true
nijisanji spinning up the debut machine again does not inspire confidence but jesus fucking christ
Also, sad they lost the sajam thing despite they were one of the better players in the tournament. But we have two whole new levelerless controllers (so we don't have to drag the dragon around to MAG) and so much free chipotle. We also had ice cream after.

You can't make this up, this is like a living parody of what antis think VTubers are.Mumei karaoke, potentially pre-recorded or something, based on the title.
Where'd the idea that "wort" means "womb" come from? I can't find anything backing that up.
Here's some nice subs for the talking part, I find their working relationship and pasts really interesting, it's not the same as pretty much any other members in Holo.
