A bit of a distraction from Ame's events...

"Ringtone" - an Aki Rose HoloGTA & Minecraft arc.



Which led to...


... and now it can be yours too.

ahem


I really enjoyed HoloGTA and still fire up streams a few weeks later as they are relatively long for some people so it's easy to put one on in the background while working or noodling around in the night.

Also, HoloGTA finally got me to follow an install guide for a big mod collection for LSPDFR which is an SP modpack that lets you play as the Police.
... and the first thing i did after getting halfway through the full modpack install was "hmmm, wouldn't it be cool to put textures based on the HoloGTA Police decals into the game?"

And i've just added the "Pina Pengin PenPal Police Patrol" into the GTAV vehicle pack i just added which adds "ELS" compatibility to the Vanilla GTAV vehicles. ELS is a pack that lets you do made things with the siren lights on Emergency Vehicles.

I wish someone has or is ripping the decals and sprays the holomems used in HoloGTA so i can cruise around in Holo Police derived cars.

I'll post a picture soon, hopefully ingame too.

Youtube's dumb AI summary can be unintentionally hilarious as well as pointless at times:

Chat summary
Auto-generated experiment • Quality may vary
Viewers are expressing disappointment over the streamer's burger. They are commenting on how the burger is soggy, with too many tomatoes and the bottom patty being well done.
Kaela playing Galaxy Burger lol

At least i can confirm that games where you have to fulfill increasing complicated customer orders within strict time limits are not for me.
I like watching them now and then but they're not something i'd enjoy playing.

Liz has a cover of Love-Song releasing tonight .

Be nice to have ( The unarchived karaoke ) on in the background while i do some work prep for tomorrow while messing with Blender and GTAV to get a Fox Head mask/helmet ready to import into GTAV while i am also following a tutorial to get LSPDFR and a bunch of mods ready for GTAV too.

This may be a mess but i WILL have my Pina Pengin Emergency Vehicle Livery, Amiya Aranha "Agent Sippy" Female MP char AND the Fubuki Fox head installed into GTAV SP! ... eventually.

oh, CeCe is finishing up HL2 too.

My ADHD is working ovewrtime tonight.

Aqua just had by far the most CCU in a vtuber debut stream ever, reaching above 380k.

I appreciate all these successful moves towards independent streaming (and the continued success of e.g. Mint and Doki). I expect that it improves the bargaining position vs. their companies even for those that prefer to stay in a more corporate setting.

( Turns out i had already had a bookmark to the 30sec cat drawing video they put out years ago somehow lol )


Even Namie popped up and had a Sonic stream this weekend!
How cool is that?!

Mint + Dokibird Mincraft in a few hours:

I can probably only watch a small fraction of it, unless they surprise me with their speedrunning prowess (which is incredibly unlikely :p).

I'm not posting details and screens but holy fuck what did i just find out about?!

I knew some followers are genuinely moronic and a v-tuber i watch has one follower who especially prone to being a bit "extra", almost to the point of parasocial and to the point where they have been given side-eye and "tone it down" hints by other fans but holy crap they crossed the line.

Super wholesome VTuber who works really hard IRL, has had multiple setbacks in the storms that hit America earlier this year and is just super lovely announces some merch, one of which is a daki and then gets scolded in a super chat for it. Cue awkward moments followed by VTuber apologising and the idiot doubles-down in chat and twitter then mega comment on youtube attacking other fans and mods. Like WTF!?

I'm glad i had gone to sleep by then or i would have lost it in chat... well maybe not as i wouldn't want to upset the streamer but i would have been seething inwardly.



On happier news, i now have my tangentally relevant new phone in "Mint" which is a colour used by two of my favorite VTubers, One of which you can guess at and the other mentioned above.

... and apparently i need to watch the HoloKoshien as i've heard my Holo Oshi did really well. Let's gooooo!


New Globie gen seem fun and they've got a midlands/northern lass this time too. More Brits! wooooo.



I'm expecting lots of experimental creativity, shitposting and brainrot. Excellent.

So many small/mid agency debuts recently, it's madness out there.

Yeah, the thread's been a bit quiet lately as work has been really busy and i've been watching VTubers rather than posting.
I need to start posting more but it would mainly be about Globie, Phase Connect, ex-Tsunderia and PRISM Project peeps like Amiya Aranha, Pina Pengin and lots of adjacent indie vtubers like Onolumi, bambooShark, Maru Nanamona etc.

... and not lots and lots of AZKi at all. Nope.

I do like going back to the start of the thread and looking at old videos i'd forgotten about and some that i rewatch now and then even years later.


This thread "bump" made me login to The Game Awards and vote for Pekora! Let's go, Pekora!

Cerenity is running a crazy Minecraft Hunger Games collab with a ton of VTubers.
I'm watching Pina but here's the main stream and the Multiview for people with insane bandwidth lol

They have polls for chat to vote for when people get revived.


Multiview


Damn, that was fun!
Pina living up to her PON reputation and locking herself in a prison was peak Pina, ha



Another cool collab on Doki's channel too.

VTuber Awards 2nd Year - Get voting peeps!



There's some really, really tricky decisions to make this year.
I couldn't in good faith just blindly click stuff, i have to have a think about some of these category nominations.

Apparently she recently uploaded 3 videos on her previously dormant PL account, so probably fans aren't going to be left stranded for long.

An Announcement...



Apparently Chloe's health and being in-and-out of hospital was making things difficult to steam regularly and also she has found something outside of Holo that she wants to pursue yet apparently she will also be an Affiliate. Similar situation to Ame?

I was surprised to learn that apparently, she has been in a real-life idol group for a while now. And not just that, another member of the same group is Matsuri!

I don't have much personal interest in that kind of thing, but it's quite interesting on a meta level to learn that it is possible to do something like that at the same time.

As someone who has absolutely 0 J-Pop knowledge beyond what little I pick up from Vtuber streams, this was somewhat interesting:

Obake PAM's Christmas Vtuber Concert is on and she has 300+ VTuber guests this year!
Usually that means there's a lot of choirs and multi-collabs and duets and there's a fair bit of scuff but it's always a fun time and i really appreciate what she does for the community, how supportive she is of other VTubers and how many events she puts together and takes part in. Good on ya, PAM!

Do any of you know if any of the decals and sprays that were used in HoloGTA have been leaked or recreated?
I keep having a poke about but haven't found anything yet and i think trying to recreate them from screengrabs will be pain.

I'd love to use them in my modded GTAV so if you see anything on your wanders then give me a shout would ya?

I have the AkiRose ringtone by Zuzu as that was released but i haven't found any other bits and pieces yet.


Speaking of free stuff for games, Alicja of Globie has justfinished her Icy Towers Cow Mod.



Touhou LostWord have announced that Mint does vocals for their new release of Phantom Pain MV Cover out at start of Jan.
Also, Mint has a LostWord Live stream on the 8th Jan at 01:00 UTC which is just as she gets back from Japan so she's gonna be jetlagged to heck lol

Wooooo!
