Calli really pulled the most Dad action possible here.

^ She was being a dad in Gura's Papers please stream LMAO
I think she never realized how much of a dad she really is before everyone started calling her that.

Congrats on making it to 1M right before Bloom, Kaichou!

Go to Suisei's 3d concert for good luck.

It's been a good month for chaotic anglophones

Hololive Alternative

It's a collaborative worldbuilding project. Or, at least somewhat collaborative. They're recruiting creators at the moment. So the only thing for sure coming out of this is the currently announced twitter comics

https://youtu.be/DlZYG2NVaqo

I... huh? Wha? What.

edit: apparently Calli sang the song there.

Sing an anime opening: Complete!

edit 2: Also gen 4 idoru costumes

that's one boin boin dragon.

Calli finally watched Kiara's video

https://streamable.com/j9dc60

She seems legit overwhelmed by it, I guess she didn't expect for Kiara to take things that far? That said, she doesn't seem upset by it just embarrassed.

So I've been trying my hand at speedrunning Smol Ame on and off after coming back to it for the new level. (Pekoland!)

So far my PB on the first level is ~16.800. The current WR is 12.550 or thereabouts. so I'm a bit off of that lol. I'm not going for WR or anything though, just improving my PB. Seems there's a (nearly) frame perfect trick at the start I wasn't aware of that I'm not sure I want to bother learning anyway.

I might try Pekoland some more, it seems really fun and it's shorter than Red Heart (and as much as I'd love to run Red Heart for the music, it's just not a very interesting level after the first time through. The speedrun is pretty similar to the regular route as far as I can tell.)

Also considering doing some Bubba% runs. We'll see.

Don't forget that tonight is the Takamori Goodbye concert.

EDIT: Noel and Flare finally got their rings

edit: UNARCHIVED TAKAMORI CONCERT STREAM IS A GO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqqmEavZczs

All Star is the perfect song to start with.
Wow. Kiara is KILLING it with "Excuse My Rudeness, But Could You Please RIP?"
(Pun intended inatended).

original post:
So... Akai Haato ch. is no more.

I'm not smart enough to keep up with the 5D chess Haato Haachama is playing...

edit: Ah, I missed the 赤井はあと
She's still there, but so is Haachama.

I'm DEFINITELY not smart enough to keep up.

edit2: By the way, for anyone who missed it...

Kiara made a cover of King!

It seems to have flown under the radar a bit. It has about 100K views, which under any other circumstance would be a hilarious thing to call "flying under the radar". But this is Hololive. Nothing makes sense in Hololive and that's part of why we love it.

The Takamori karaoke was wonderful with the clip linked above being the best part of it.

Everyone was touched by it and even got Takamori to be trend topic in multiple countries last night.

So Kanata just had a stream to celebrate Coco's 1 million subs. Such a homie thing to do. But better yet, she made a letter to Cooc translated here. KanaCoco going full speed ahead.

The Takamori duet of Hinotori is a banger
https://youtu.be/vKKRsgI-BrY

I'll assume y'all cried during leaving on a jet plane too, right? Yeah...

Noel seems genuinely happy about the rings! She's flaunting hers like crazy XD

https://streamable.com/us1l6h

This one in particular is apparently a impossible to have on YT? No clippers have been able to keep the complete song + the moment.
I really liked their guy love cover! Mori's disgust (?) and Kiara's happiness was TakaMori in a nutshell.

KanaCoco going full speed ahead.

She also gave her a rare Switch console with matching cases, ring fit adventure (I wonder why?), And more accessories, maybe other games? O can't recall rn. BEST WIFE EVER!

Monoe's termination is confusing but I'm not making any extra research.

Uto is back! Haachama is back!

What a week!!

Sui-chan is doing a genocide run in Undertale. Fitting.

Love-chan is playing Among us tomorrow: https://youtu.be/EOpctb2gBpQ
Its a collab!

I know I saw a clip of this but I have no idea how to find it. It was definitely a rare Animal Crossing Switch, with a wireless pro controller, an SD card, and a carrying case. Might have been more accessories? Pretty certain RFA was the only game specifically purchased

Monoe's termination is confusing but I'm not making any extra research.

Last I checked, no one had any idea what happened. Seems to be entirely internal. Kinda concerned about the future of VOMS...

Love-chan is playing Among us tomorrow:

Who?

Remember how Kiara said they should get matching bracelets during the send-off concert? Well, Calli went ahead and did them herself

https://twitter.com/takanashikiara/status/1363827425835028481?s=19

AZKi new costume looks like she's straight out of Love Live HAHAHAHA she's so cute!!!

And Ollie fell asleep mid stream lol

Last I checked, no one had any idea what happened. Seems to be entirely internal. Kinda concerned about the future of VOMS...

Apparently, it was decided a few days before the announcement. Right before anniversary too! It must be some serious shit, that's why I'll refrain from invading their privacy.
VOMS as a whole should be ok for now but this might have some consequences down the line...I really hope not.

Who?

TL;DR: remember that time UP8 tried to replace Kizuna Ai and everyone hates it? Those two girls got new identities and a new channel. Love and Pii(pun intended), Pii had to stop for personal reasons and now Love has the channel for herself. Ai-chan collab'd with her recently.

Diabetes part 2. I take it back! We are not back to status quo. Kiara mentioned it again in supachat reading and she's so happy awww~
Apparently, they are too big to wear

OMG THE RIDE NEVER ENDS! Kiara just mentioned Calli was super clingy during their "dinner date" where she gave her bracelets. That she'll be lonely and she doesn't want her to leave HNNNNGGG

Kaede is singing an anime OP

I think this is the first time a standard i-do-gaming-streams-and-talk-to-fans type vtuber has done this. Kinda surprising to see Nijisanji get the jump on Hololive

Losing a third of your cast is bad under any circumstances, and without a clear explanation there's going to be ugly rumours. I've seen groups collapse from less

Kaede is singing an anime OP

I think this is the first time a standard i-do-gaming-streams-and-talk-to-fans type vtuber has done this. Kinda surprising to see Nijisanji get the jump on Hololive

Higuchi Kaede aka Deron is actually one of Nijisanji's best singers. She has two albums on Spotify. I don't find it surprising she will sing for an anime just as I won't be surprised if hololive's Tokino Sora or AZKI ended up doing it too. Nijisanji being bigger in Japan probably means they get first dibs in stuff like this tho I know some hololive members have already sang an OP for a VN.

So I was going through the Hololive Alternative PV with a fine-toothed comb, looking for details frame by frame, and I noticed one thing in particular. The cross-shaped structure that Sora is standing near in the final scene is also reflected in a window during Matsuri's scene. The rest of them have very little, if anything at all, to connect them, with a few exceptions:

Flare and Noel (and Coco :P) are in some sort of glacial area.

Ayame and Mio/Fubuki are in a setting with a traditional Japanese aesthetic.

And lastly the modern city locations in Sora's first scene, along with Matsuri's aforementioned scene and the Okayu/Korone one after it, and potentially Miko's, judging by the big screen behind her.

I can't find anything clearly linking Shion, Marine, Aqua, Choco, Kanata, Pekora, Fubuki's brief second appearance, or Roboco's, uh... eye.

Obviously none of this necessarily means anything other than "the animators liked it", since we don't even know exactly what this whole thing is going to amount to. My (tenuous) understanding is that this whole thing is more like an "idea" to be expanded upon by whoever they hire to do so, though, so I thought it might be fun to see what things could be used in some way or other.

Also Pekora's bunnies are floofy, which is pretty cute.

^ BTW, the upcoming manga is cancelled for now thanks to creative differences(?).

Smooth lion.
AZKi is shitposting LOL she's so cute.
Kiara is also memeing on twitter about being Gura's mum(with Calli as dad).

So many among us collabs... I thought I'd watch less YT this week....

Last but not least:

I can't escape Hololive no matter what I do... Boing boing Rushia!

Kiara's joking about Gura being her and Calli's child is more hilarious because in her latest stream she went on a tangent complaining about people calling Calli, Dad.

^ BTW, the upcoming manga is cancelled for now thanks to creative differences(?).

Source? I'm not seeing that on either the twitter or website for the project

Last but not least:

I was planning to get the game anyway...

I don't think all the manga projects were canned but just the Marine one drawn by Mizuryu Kei since he had a public meltdown a few days ago and took his Twitter to say he had broke any ties with Cover. He seemingly realized how stupid his outburst was and quickly took down all related tweets but the damage was already done.

The last Disgaea game I really got into was the DS re-release of the first one... but if 6 has a Switch version and that Hololive DLC comes to the west I might have to pick this one up.

...Ughhh. And I just bought Persona 5 Strikers and got addicted to Dungeon Crawl again... Why you gotta do this to me Cover? They won't rest til all my free time is taken up by HoloPro.

Huh, okay. As someone familiar-ish with Mizuryuu Kei's work, I was kinda worried about how that was going to turn out anyway

Not mentioned: Not only does Subaru have a mama fetish, she likes them with dark skin and big boobs. ...Someone needs to show her Yukataro's GudaQuetz doujins
