I have zero interest in Vtubers as a concept and can't ever see myself watching their videos.

On a completely unrelated note, are there any cute guy Vtubers? Just asking for a friend?

A whole bunch. Nijisanji and Holostars have a ton of male vtubers.


My friend who does Vtubing as a hobby simps hard for a few.

That reminds me... I should research what a VTuber is and who the current ones are. I feel like a new one pops up every week so it’s hard to keep track and determine what the current discussed one is.
It’s basically a YouTube/Twitch channel but with a animated actor right?
They're not worth your time.

Y'know, what with my online avatar being an extremely fashionable lad in a wide array of outfits, I think I could make a pretty passable VTuber. I'd just have to get over my crippling social anxieties and hatred of my own voice in recording.

YouTube always doing some ****
Yeah, it's bad to the point where there's a full-on TED Talk explaining why Youtube Kids is a failure and a half. Which is why it's cathartic whenever a lot of the big users I like actively bite the hand that feeds them (SMG4 in particular).

My nephews are really obsessed with brands and merchandise... corporatism. They are excited by it. They try and share their excitement when companies advertise their brands in various ways but I just can't get excited for that kind of thing anymore.

Either a Smash clone based Disney game or a Disney based racing game would be something I would like to see.

Anyways, just managed to tune in to the final episode of Loki:

Wasn't expecting to see Jonathan Majors' Kang feature in the MCU so soon. But after watching the episode and seeing how the timeline is branching off to different realities, it looks like this is certainly going to make things interesting within the MCU's future going forward especially for the likes of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Ant Man & the Wasp: Quantumania as well as the recently announced second season of Loki.
I hope you prayed for a safe trip...cause Marvel is gonna take us for a ride

Man, i hate drawing
People's only like drawings of girls with huge unreal balloons on her chest , they don't give a shot about landscape are and even if they did, imma not good enough for them. My ****ty ass "drawings" suck ass
Lewds sell, that is one of the sad facts in life. If it ain't a painting from some bygone era in art history its not going to sell well. Unless you do OC commissions

We pretty much know what island the One Piece is on. It's getting there that's the problem.
The joke is ever getting there.

When we do, they'll open a box and say "Oh btw the real treasure is on another island."


TWO PIECE sequel manga let's goooo.

That's ****.

They’re propaganda, it’s brainwashing, and possibly definitely satanic. Do not engage.

The others have been brainwashed, especially Wade. Poor guy didn’t stand a chance…

Please, before it’s too late. DON’T. WATCH. VTUBERS.
1. The **** is your pfp? Cursed Pikachu ****.

2. We will force people to watch it! You will convert Noi!

See, my thing with VTubers is that when I’m watching someone’s content, I need to be able to jive and connect with them, and I really struggle to connect with a content creator who I know is playing a character and not being themselves, if that makes sense?

Honestly?

I don’t really “watch” vtubers that much.

I watch the memes that people make of them :yeahboi:

Isn't the thing that make Vtuber as popular as they are is that they do blend the "playing a character" part and being themselves too?

Like they're supposed to be idols & nice girls overall, but they end up saying or doing things no actual idols would do.

I can see where you're coming from but do keep in mind that most YouTubers also have a particular persona they use on the job. I heavily doubt that they overreact to smallest things and make non-stop snarky comments in their daily life.

I'm not saying this in a negative way. Acting is also a valuable job and "being yourself" on-camera burns you out like crazy.

Man, I am really glad I got back into Yugioh right around the same time my locals opened up events for it again.

I was really hoping to do Tag Duels last February, but anything is better than nothing.


Now the real question is, do I take my Heros or try to rebuild Darkfluid Turbo? 🤔

Oh yeah, totally. The thing for me though is that even if you are having a persona, I can still connect to the person behind that persona most of the time. With V-Tubers, between trying to look different, acting more like annanimated character than a real person, putting on a voice(?) etc., it becomes a lot harder for me to say “This is a real person I believe and can connect with.”

Now of course that’s going off my frankly limited knowledge of what a V Tuber is, so keep that in mind. LOL

There have been severe floods here in Germany near where I live, to the point even international media is reporting on it. Luckily the city where I actually live has been spared and is safe.

This will no doubt come as a shock to many of you guys but I've yet to give in to the whole VTuber craze.

...But Gawr Gura singing the Gurren Lagann theme song almost made me cave. Almost.
I'm not into it. I just like the designs and Gawr Gura's.

I'm not a Hololive fan but rather...... An observer of it.

Maybe if we got a Hololive fighting game or full JRPG or anime then yes, I'll convert.

I'm probably going to add a map mod to my modpack because knowing me if I don't I 100% am going to forget where my base is
