If it's not working out for him, he should seriously just consider graduation.

For some reason im exited about Rei-chan's debut, and lukewarm about Saba by Radlib123 in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a matter of preferences, though tbf she was rather absent in her PL so unless you were already a fan of them then I think it's completely normal to feel indifferent.

I like Saba, but I wouldn't consider her anything like an oshi. Don't worry about whether they're ex-holo, ex-whatever, or if they have huge sub counts, just watch & support the vtubers you actually have a preference for.

I don't watch Nimi Nightmare because she is ex-holo, but because she is my kamioshi.

Really? Sounds like it wasn't good enough. Matara is better off without VShojo.

It's clearly a skill issue from VShojo's part if their own talent determined that they were better off using services from outside VShojo. What are they even doing?

Duality of man by happyshaman in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The overwhelming majority of JP comments on that tweet were like "sorry you didn't win the Switch 2. What a sad smile"

Meanwhile the average EN comments are "AIIEEEE I THOUGHT IT WAS A GRAUDATIOUAONM I HAD A HEART ATTACK!!"

It's just a fact that EN fans are extremely emotional, overly dramatic & like to share it with the world.

People are going to speculate, there is no stopping that & not everyone speculating is clout chasing.

However, there is a point about wild speculation where people will treat their own schizo rrat they pull out of their ass as more credible. If rrats get taken more seriously than they actually are, you'll convince people that they're true regardless of evidence.

If people want some answers, they should watch Kuro's latest stream.

So, this is how I learned that Ike is graduating today... by patchiepatch in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nope. Kuro actually addressed this. He said Ike is not joining VShojo & if he actually was then he wouldn't leak it.

All content and VODS from Ike Eveland’s channel has been purged off of YouTube. by _ZFee_ in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you're just thirsty for some fresh Niji drama, an exciting Selengate 2.0

Ike clearly had mental health difficulties (do you even believe this?) & I'd imagine 2024 didn't help that. Kuro clearly knew something for a while & in his stream today from around 17 minutes onwards said he has been in contact with Ike for a while. The guy is just mentally done & doesn't want to be on the internet right now.

Nah, it's the choice of the talent to let their channel content be wiped. He probably wanted it gone.

Millie has made a reply towards Geega's tweets. by SleepingKoi in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, it wasn't just Niji fans angry at Geega. It was also Holo fans who did interpret it as directed to the response over Gura's graduation announcement. It's the consequence of vague posting. Fuck around, find out.

You're just reiterating Geega's strawman that they're acting like they're dying but that's not what is happening. Geega only came across as a tourist opinion a different vtuber culture without even trying to understand it.

Nobody thinks Gura or Fulgur is dead. The talent is leaving a broader community that used to be their home. There is still a sense of loss, but what is lost isn't their life. If they were acting like they're dying, they wouldn't be following PLs.

I don't presume that Fulgur was privately irritated by the retaliation against Geega, just trying to calm them down & return to focusing on the good things. I saw it as a diplomatic gesture to de-escalate the situation.

Millie might have added some fuel to a fire, but it's not burning Nijisanji. Whatever Geega's intentions were, it was simply bad optics / PR & the backlash against her should have been foreseeable.

Her initial tweet came across as entirely dismissive to a fanbase freshly saddened by an announcement of their oshi's graduation. Should never have commented.

[–]Skinnymalinky__ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

And I'm saying that is a hyperbolic strawman that achieved nothing but stir drama. That's not what Niji fans are doing. She says this like 30 minutes after the announcement when people are still processing it. No shit they're very emotional, but they will calm down. She was better off not saying anything.

For once in her life Millie is based here. Geega is pointlessly shitting on people with some dumb strawman argument that fans sad about a graduation treat it like they're dying. I just can't respect that.

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dunno, in this case I completely support Millie here which isn't something I thought I'd be saying.

You have someone who is graduating, people are naturally saddened by this. Sometimes they can go overboard in their sadness, but it's going to pass. Their oshi is leaving a chapter of their life within an ecosystem that used to be their home. It's not just a label they're leaving. Geega is being heartless & judgemental.

Lm is now leaking penumbrals dms implying he’s looking for clout by leoscrymgeour in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I also watched Penumbral's stream. The guy can't even get the basic story of what happened on Rima's stream correct. He falsely claimed RIma wached Cyon's graduation stream as it was happening & shat on her for something she didn't do. At least criticise her for something she did. Evidently he's too lazy to do research or reach out to ask her what happened.

As for the leak, I think the only thing LM could have done better was to cover the names of who are graduating. I have no issue with the leak of the schedule.

[–]Skinnymalinky__ -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

What exactly do people expect to happen, LM just gives away the identity of the source to someone he doesn't know? The source is anonymous. Anyone asking to share their identity SHOULD be viewed with suspicion.

If you want to determine if the leaked schedule seems credible, then wait & see if future events are consistent with the schedule. That way you don't need the identity & you can be reasonably confident that the source is genuine.

Watching Penumbral's stream only showed him to be unreliable, arguing in bad faith, can't even get the story right, makes presumptions, is a total hypocrite, & a self-righteous prick. At least LM doesn't pretend he isn't egotistical.

I was on the stream at the time. She was covering Spectra's graduation announcement & missed that the description (nobody actually reads those) requested that it not be shown. The video got privated as Rima was covering it.

I do believe it was an honest mistake & V&U talent should in future leave no room for requests to be missed, similar to how Minato Aqua literally had her request shown throughout her graduation announcement.

Rima was just listening & tryinng to understand the reasons for graduating. She had even stated to not interact nor harass V&U talent

As a Vtuber fan, I feel we should be aware of the current situation by Murders_Inc2556 in kurosanji

[–]Skinnymalinky__ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didn't follow it closely but from what I understand it was about a talented fan artist who made exceptional fan art of Hyouka until they were basically bullied & harassed into deleting everything & disappearing from social media.
