Good adjacent VTuber Gozi Mai also has been working on an Outlast speedrun, although I think she's currently been putting it on hold while she goes for plat in Apex.

I'm looking forward to the Interstellar watchalong that Sana and Kronii are doing. Some of the characters are painfully stupid but I'm a big fan of some of the concepts and imagery used.

Yeah, but what about the movie?

I've only ever uploaded a single YouTube video and it's this clip of Pikamee establishing her moral uprightness in Dark Souls. (pardon the bad quality)

Pikamee, incidentally, is phenomenal. She delivers in both English and Japanese simultaneously, and if you're wondering what that's like, just watch a stream of hers. Her speech pattern is entirely her own.

Pikamee continues to somehow not make my personal favorites but I do consider her to be one of the best. If someone asked me why I don't watch her more I'd have no answer for them, she's delightful.

Speaking of Pikamee I recently stumbled across this video of her talking about her experiences being biracial in a Japanese school:

Also while far from professional level or anything like that, Mashiro's done a bunch of "speedrun Dark Souls & stream ends if he dies" streams and he ran through Outlast in a bit over an hour recently:

Twitter is good as a kind of modern feed for short form information from specific accounts.

So if you make a twitter on your mobile to follow anyone, go to your Push Notifications and disable all items from the "Recommendations from Twitter" and "News from Twitter" groups. Maybe also disable "Broadcasts & Spaces" and "Moments". You should also go into "SMS notifications" and "Email notifcations" and disable those entirely.

Twitter will still attempt to recommend topics to you, and show you sponsored tweets, but otherwise you shouldn't see any tweets except from anyone you specifically follow, or anything they like or retweet.

This is a bit of a tangent as it doesn't have anything directly to do with vtubers, but Veritasium made an interesting video a few days ago that I think is a must watch for anyone in the content creation space. Including all the goon vtubers. The point that directly ties to all the crazy stuff that you need to disable on twitter is around 1:38. Even though he talks specifically about youtube and clickbait, I think the insight can apply to any modern social media platform with a recommendation feature. It's all about driving that engagement and the ability to turn that off completely can't exist, because it doesn't promote growth on the platform.

There's been a few news articles about Japanese schools making half Japanese kids dye their hair black. It's a lovely situation all around and to be honest I've seen discussions among half Asian people who grew up mixed race in Asia and there's a lot of very toxic discourse. In particular there's a lot of biracial people who really resent any noteworthy people who have biracial kids growing up in and around East Asia because of the awful poo poo they personally had to go through as a kid, like they see the high profile couple and think their parenting choices are extremely irresponsible.

Like on one hand it's not really fair to criticize anyone for deciding to get hitched and have kids. On the other hand I imagine growing up in an extremely racist environment as a product of the extremely common trend of white men moving to Japan and Korea and China and marrying Asian women probably gives people a lot of anger about it being a common trend.

So officially staff and a music producer. I wonder if they're going to operate as a talent too

It'd be hilarious if this turns out to be the same person as Enma/Jenma/J-chad but probably not

I did see some of the Japanese side of things making a big deal about who Omega's follows on twitter: artists/designers, Cover staff, all the HoloENs, and, sticking out from the rest, Coco, of all people. No other JP members. Interesting for a new person to publicly single out the retiree? But we know Coco was interested in the management side of things so maybe she got Omega on Cover's radar. I guess we'll see

So not only was Cover paying attention to the way fans ran with Enma, Jenma and J-chad,(and A-chan, of course) they have been taking notes as well. Interesting and kinda neat.

So, was Baelz legit bouncing between accents, or was it just one single accent I'm too American to identify? It sure sounded like the former, but I definitely can't rule out the latter.

Good Hunter, what... what is this post?
Rosemi and Finana are gonna be playing league of legends with the cloud9 vtuber Vienna in 12 hours, and maybe some others?

Vienna's collabed with a bunch of people. Snuffy, haruka, froot and girl_dm in this league one, so they might be on the shortlist for the collab w/ rosemi and finana. maybe Bao? Vienna was also in that giant garry's mod collab zen put together a while back.

she seems nice but I haven't watched her much.

e; oh, cw: league of legends

ee; oh, and Kronii's gonna play Twelve Minutes today. Which, drat, because I want to watch her first stream, but I also wanted to play that game and it seems pretty story-driven

Definitely all over the place. I think she's got a New Zealand accent going on but it's not consistent at all.

If it helps, a lot of people say that its a better game to watch someone play than to play it yourself. The story seems to end up being pretty disappointing and the actual gameplay is far more on-rails than it looks at first glance, which also makes constantly replaying the time loop to try new things pretty annoying. I was interested in it too, but I think I'll rather watch someone stream it and Kronii is playing it right here, so...

I'm pretty sure it was just one accent. My personal opinion is the act of pitching her voice different to what it usually is was what was causing the travelling accent.
