girl dm is great, I haven't seen much of her lately but she's super funny and super talented, her tracking was some of the absolute best I've ever seen on any vtuber ever, unfortunately I think the program she used was super old and discontinued and didn't have any updates in years so she kinda 'lost' access to all that

This group has a lot of... power
First Take energy
Advent continuing to knock it out of the park
Tomorrow is a weekend and the last Advent 3D debut is the most JP-loved and most subscribed members of the group. I think Fuwamoco's 3D debut is gonna break 100k viewers easily.
sharp adder
I feel like I'm missing something with Fuwamoco because they're the ones I haven't really payed much attention to out of Advent yet everyone seems to love them 
lucid python
I'd describe them as "aggressively inoffensive." Among Advent, and kind of among EN in general, Fuwamoco are the only ones who are hard into their personas and haven't let up once. While others seem to have mixed in their real selves with their personas/characters or dropped them entirely, for Fuwamoco it is clear that their characters are the whole point and they are dedicated to the end to playing them.
They have clearly tailored themselves to have a universal audience and have, from the beginning, seemed to have much more lofty goals than their genmates and have a somewhat different feel to them (while, amazingly, still fitting seamlessly in with the group).
They have sickeningly sweet wholesomeness, very anime-like character voices that attract kaigai and JP bros alike, and a tinge of spice that seems to be measured down to the grain to add another facet to the pair that isn't jarring or distracting from the rest of their character.
They also have extensive past-life experience which helps them methodically work and grow their audience. Almost everything they do is calculated as fuck
Can you tell I've been watching more Fuwamoco lately 
sharp adder
I also understand that Fuwamoco seem to have some legacy following from before they were on hololive but I know nothing about that at all
lucid python
I'm not too sure on that either. All I know is that their previous graduation was a surprise given they were blowing up all on their own. Didn't dig too much into it though

Given the prevalence I wouldn't be surprised if they now ask if you have family who you might be interested in having on stream

''stream-trained''
Well if anything, at least the vtubers who live with their families at least notify them of what kinda stuff they do so they don't get interrupted mid stream, I think
But then you have Nerissa and her family outshining her completely during the streams like when her sisters dominated the stream they appeared on

I want to say Japanese services/sites are too trusting of people but I have no idea how Japanese internet is like so I may be totally off mark saying that
It does remind me of when Umamusume announced they were going to drop the English/international version of the game and a lot of japanese accounts started replying with all the warnings and cautions about what's allowed and what isn't and most people's replies were immediately ''bro this is the internet nobody's gonna care''
lucid python
All I know about Japanese internet is that it's a LOT more text based. In stark contrast to minimalist websites from pretty much anywhere else, Japanese websites look and feel a lot like things from the 90s and early 00s.
Learned from a video that this is actually because Japan had internet on cell phones WAY before the first smartphone, and it was easier to get cell phones in people's hands than desktops in people's homes, so sites had to be made to be easily accessible on phones, so lots of text, not a lot of graphics so as to not stress the relatively weak phones that were accessing them.
sharp adder
Lol I think I watched that exact same video
Phones in general are way bigger in Asian countries than on any western country, that's why the mobile game market is so big over there

I'm sure Aqua sold a bunch of merch in the past

I've seen at least one Holomem talk about supers actually being relatively small ways to support a streamer. The merch seems to be what they take home the most, if not all of the profit of.

Yeah that sounds about right
I think I remember seeing a clip of one of them saying the same
Pretty sure it must've been during a stream announcing some merch

sharp adder
Amelia I think?
In any case even with the cut they take from superchats getting as many as Aqua did is gonna get you some serious money regardless
lucid python
Suisei said that supers are great and all, but if someone wanted to give her money to buy merch because 1. she sees more of it and 2. she'd feel bad getting just a donation so she'd rather someone get something out of their money in the way of a product

''Well, that's probably fine, if only a single family member came on stream it's probably fi--''
''I brought the whole family''

I feel like it's a case of management assuming that she already got permission and not asking any one else in charge if she had the permission
And then of course Nerissa literally didn't know she needed to ask lol
In the clip she said it was months later that anyone asked if she got permission
sharp adder
Either it was assumed she already got permission or someone's manager is probably gonna get chewed out for not paying attention because when Nerissa started mentioning her family there were already starting to be tons of fanart and it was only a bit later until they started showing up on stream
It would've been impossible to not know her family was showing up on streams

how was day 1 of Enigmatic Recollection? any streams you'd recommend?
lucid python
Things really started to pop off once the groups formed in the respective guilds. Shiori tried to do her own thing until it was clear that at least initially partying up made things easier. Her group is with Nerissa, Fauna, Gura, and Cecilia. Once Nerissa and Shiori logged off for the night, Fauna, Gura, and Cecilia powered through the first dungeon unlocking the first of the world's secrets.
Ina and Bijou were last to leave for the day, with Ina grinding tasks for money and Biboo losing all her money in gambling before doing tasks to try to have something before she left.
I recommend picking one POV from each guild and following it because once the groups form they're all audible and doing pretty much the same thing
storm heath
okay thanks for that info!

I recall a post on Reddit a little bit ago where someone wondered if everyone in Hololive really got along "offstage" as well as they seemed to on stream.
The general consensus among people seemed to be that with dozens of different people there are going to be differences in personality and opinion and people will disagree on stuff, but even people in tighter circles or with some limited inside info do not seem to be able to identify any bombshells like "Oh talent X secretly HATES talent Y". Calli's words appear to reflect that.

Also I learned that Shiori pretty regularly watches the Holostars, you can catch her in chats of the boys sometimes.
Also there's been trends of chat asking vtubers for jetpacks. Biboo said no, Shiori said yes, and Raora seems to be in litigation with the chattini on whether they can have them and the terms of jetpack ownership, if allowed. Chattini have sought the counsel of the Italian Air Force, which has yet to respond to the request for assistance.

Interesting that she said "not graduation per se" and "cessation of general activities" but this is pretty much graduation
All of EN has tweeted but I'm not seeing the announcement from Cover yet
sharp adder
This one was very unexpected
Not a graduation, only 11 days left of Ame...
It does seem to be an amicable departure and nothing too crazy, maybe some creative differences like usual, she did say that the official statement will answer the questions but it'll probably be tomorrow
lucid python
What worries me a bit is the suddenness in cessation of activity (only 10 days until her "final" stream) and talking about something she has to do alone. Shit like that makes me want it to be the good scenario of a graduation
Announcement is up
sharp adder
So.... she got.... demoted?
Wait, wasn't Watson the one who would usually kind of oversee the process of new members coming in and all that? Maybe she's gonna focus on that now
lucid python
She said a further stream with a bit more detail will be later. The stream and this announcement point to Ame not technically leaving, but no longer being a streamer
Inb4 we were all right and Ame's "vacations" right before new gens debut actually were her scouting and doing management work
So this doesn't feel so bad.
Any future activities that involve Watson Amelia will be announced through official social media and other channels.
This is absolutely not like anything that has done previously
sharp adder
Well, if she's gonna stick around but in the background then that'd definitely make this hurt a bit less

Well no current information we have contradicts that idea :flutternod:

Her announcement stream kinda makes it sound like whatever this is, is a result of her famous Ame-way, the term ascribed to her determination and stubborn-ness. I feel like we're less losing a streamer and more gaining a... well, Ame.

She did seem to be less sad than one usually would during a graduation announcement though she did choke up here and there and seemed to need a couple seconds between lines, she seemed very determined in this decision, like it was hard obviously but whatever the new direction will be it's one she's gonna be more comfortable with

lucid python
People have pointed out that the Japanese version of the announcement mentions Ame as a continued contracted talent, which means her channel isn't going anywhere. This is truly uncharted territory for whatever is going on.
Hopefully we get even more info in this stream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRrebnLHy9U

In Ame's chat stream earlier it really didn't feel like she was prepping for a graduation-like goodbye. Yes, she says, she's going to be gone for a long time and currently returning to streaming is not in the cards, but she's thrilled her status as Amelia Watson gets to stay and the door's wide open if she ever wants to step back in the ol' Ame office. She seems excited to be doing whatever venture she's doing and carries the Ameway with pride.
