Was it Kson

Zuzu Mizuchi playing Class of '09

Isa chatting

Knowing full well that Ironmouse will win everything again, I still voted for Mito because damn that woman deserves a career trophy at least

Subaru playing Captain Tsubasa: Rise of the New Champions.

Chihaya gets bullied with Superchats after saying that she had to stop her DAZN streaming service subscription due to being short on money.

Michi tries to get a star in Super Mario Party but bad luck and Ollie got into her way, with Altare rubbing it in and Risu being there.

Bae, Fauna, IRyS, and Kronii play Pico Park 2.

Dooby is live on twitch

Mint playing Holocure

EA is officially sponsoring Dokis apex tournament. Expect a bigger prize pool or EA to foot the bill instead of Doki

The fact that they don't make it a secret that Aradia is married would probably present a huge problem for them.

Granted plenty of talents are known to be married, but everyone we know about is merely a poorly kept kayfabe/secret.

Why is it a problem? I get the whole idol culture angle i guess but that's been pretty observed to not really apply to the EN market and if the gimmick is family anyway that's a selling point not a downside. In any other theoretical situation i could at least admit it might be a factor but i don't see it in this specific case.

or they could just shove Malphis into homostars.

I can honestly see both sides of this. If someone comes into v-tubing and their whole gimmick is "I am a wife with kids" from the beginning, I don't think it would necessarily be an impossible thing to do. It would certainly change the dynamic of the fanbase compared to traditional v-tubing, but it's not like it's completely unprecedented. On the other hand, you probably won't get the delusional mega-whales that make v-tubing successful as a business, either.

I could see it working in Hololive specifically because of the very wide fanbase and the ability to do stuff like music releases, collabs, and concerts that make money on their own merit. I don't know that any other corpo could pull it off, and on an indie level it'd be a gimmick streamer more than anything else. Not that Holo would EVER take a chance on something like that, but they're probably the only ones that could make a reasonable attempt at it if they wanted to.

I never care about any of these award show/popularity contests/circle jerks. Never needed an award show to affirm what my favorites of any year were. Though I do vote in the TVA and Lolcow of the Year ones

That being said, it would be nice to see Peo win Rising Star. She's not a pessimistic asshole like I am and hasn't become jaded to so much shit, so I know she'd be very happy to win it. Best of luck to her, and I hope she gets it because she definitely deserves it.

I'm barely aware of who this girl is but if she doesn't win whatever this is I will personally kill every last one of you fuckers.

God's Strongest Mozumite said:

If she wins and posts her asshole, I'll have the hexcode of two vtubers' assholes, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice-

EDIT: this post is so powerful it made @jebby react with something other than a like

Man, I don't remember when the upgrade was but something about Mint's model is so painfully fucking cute now, it's actually crazy. For the first time in a long, long time just watching this goofy ghost bitch bounce around is pure dopamine I haven't felt from a chinese cartoon streamer in years now.

How are numbers of mythos girls? Is it just twitch bias or are they actually doing better than VNU and PixelLink? I feel like one of them could've been there for rising org, but maybe it's just my bias.

I would've picked PixelLink before any of the actual nominees - I think they compete fairly well in terms of noombers, plus they've done a lot of cool stuff in the small corpo space like the VSMP Minecraft server, karaoke relays, etc. Bonus points for being an actual small corpo and not just Brave wearing a disguise. (though I'm still gonna vote for V4Mirai)

It's the art-style leaning a bit more towards cute moe instead of the usual/common shoujo style that's been ubiquitous in the industry's design over the years. It helps that Mint's color scheme isn't very messy color-wise so it doesn't look too busy.

Her color scheme actually reminds me of Pikamee's Monster Hoodie re-design:

Cute moe style in light pastels. I still fucking miss it. So unique and was a perfect match to the chuuba's personality.

Bro you're talking about a talent agency where there was an event promo happening for the whole company, and two of the more popular talents had to go DEAD FUCK SILENT when a male talent's KEY ART was on screen.

You're talking about a talent agency where one girl had to say in hushed tones and with shame in her breath that she might have to collab with a male for a project and framed it as asking her fans for permission. That same girl also later talked about another musical project that might involve some heavy metal and couldn't refer to a fellow male talent by name.

Kronii, Calli, and ERB are exceptions. Even Shiori who busted in the door screaming "I'M GONNA COLLAB WITH WHOEVER THE HELL I WANT" still hasn't gone outside the company for shit.

Don't be stupid about this.
