/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Sleepy apex grinding is going pretty alright this morning, 2 champion runs so far.

I'm inclined to think even I'm better than Aruran at APEX, and I fucking suck at it, because damn that was some aim.
>>32402155
Cute OP.

so sad that they are underrated
is the problem a lack of marketing or something? idgi

>>32402267
His aim really could use some work but gotta grind it out. None of the remaining stars can really replace Kira but Aru is putting in the effort.

>>32402267
The only thing that can help him improve is experience which he can only do so much for it for now. I have the feeling the boys got Aruran into energy weapons because the bullet requires less prediction and has no curve

>>32402578
>>32403165
Fair enough, I didn't know he was just starting at the game, weird choice for him to join the other two, but at least his showing how serious he is about it, which is nice.

>>32402155
>shhhh

I appreciate lagstars being the only full Holo team in the tournament

>>32402276
The core of the problem is probably that they're males

I think people overestimate how much the APEX tournament would affect someone's networking. Just because someone plays well, it doesn't mean people are going to want to start hanging out and collabing with them. Meika was already buddies with multiple holostars before the tournament, so it wasn't some out there reach for him to start talking to Astel after the tournamnet. I'm just saying, don't expect Astel to suddenly get a bunch of random vtuber friends because he gets a couple more kills than Nose.

>>32403353
I think someone said Astel wanted to keep the team within the stars so it was kinda slim pickings

>Roberu was already probably talking with Meika, and is not particularly good
>Controllerstars also aren't particularly good and maybe weren't interested in another tournament run
>Don't think Temma is good either
>Don't know if Oga has ever even played it

So yeah, take what you can get. Props to Astel for sticking with his boys and Arusan for practicing so much even if he can't really catch up.

>>32402276
Yes
>>32403592
It's not that being male debuffs you, it's just that it doesn't buff you like being female would.

>>32403592
There are a handful of popular male vtubers. It's unironically because they're part of Hololive as males.

>>32403656
i have to admit Ive gotten caught up with that, less for that kind of networking, I dont expect people to suddenly approach him but doing well and getting extra eyes on you during a big event like this is always good, I'm mostly hoping for some new japanese subs.
Astel not having to worry about any new sub limit for tournaments would be good and I think taking out big players is an easy way to have people at least view your channel. I guess at 50k right now though he is probably in the clear for any future tournaments.

if you want a recent example of this look no further than new year's eve where they had a giant countdown party stream at the office while they sent a couple of the boys to nicodouga and left the rest at home

>>32404954
Example of what

>>32405342
of the difference between cover's marketing of the guys and the girls, meant as a reply

GOOD MORNING WORLD!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dnjGt5Knu4

I would actually like Roberu heartbeat asmr.

>>32406696
seeing him try any type of ASMR would be nice really

what if the homostar minecraft server had bigger and better builds than the holoJP server...

>remembering the exact day he left the bathroom door open while he was streaming
how the hell are people this autistic? that was nearly 6 months ago....

>>32406855
Because the one man Taj Mahal isnt already impressive

>>32406857
you always remember embarrassing stuff more easily since it leaves a mental scar

>>32406857
I'm always impressed by people that can just pull that sort of info out, Id be too shy to respond with that even if I remembered

>>32406889
they should build a 100k/hr exp/gold farm or something

Roberu camel has nothing on the horrors of the forest.

>>32407109
if it ate breakfast, it would eat the hanasaki creatures for breakfast

>Roberu's camel eats people
Not sure I like this, son.

Camel lore

starting to think he doesn't quite know what camels are

>>32407146
What a horrifying mental image

>>32407266
cemeru...

Holostars forest would make for a good horror setting considering the fucked up creations they've made.

>>32407186
>the humps are cockpits, you can open them up and climb in

>>32407334
the final boss

>>32407334
All these crazy creatures and then theres Astel and Ogas cute designs. That would actually be really fun to see.

Wonder how he jump topic from man eating camel straight to dakimakura so smoothly

Roberu is gonna shit!

>>32407418

>>32407531
his chat fed that one to him

>>32407903
that's why he said he loves his chaotic mess of a chat. he can just pick any random comment to off of

>>32407889
the animal world of the stars has to be one of the most cursed things to exist

as much as i enjoy roberu's casual talks, i wish he streamed games a bit more often

>>32408136
>oh boy, I can't wait for the 6 hour XB2 DLC stream!

>>32408136
he's been thinking of cutting down on morning streams so you might get your wish if he replaces them with gaming streams

>>32408043
I love Kuku's hair and i love how similar it is to Robel's

>>32408196
be glad he isn't into Xenoblade X, that game is really timesink

I miss the days of having a schedule to go by, it was nice while it lasted, but I suppose it is hard to commit to it these days what with the size of his harem and all

>>32408447
i'm still holding on to the hope it will go back to usual after the tournament

>>32408725
doubt it has anything to do with the tourney, it's him just getting complacent and lazy

>>32408447
Id like to see as a joke that he would write one up like he used to but its all just possible stream in 3 slots everyday. Like Pizzadads current apex influenced schedule: https://twitter.com/arurandeisu/status/1351013862083067905

>>32408771
he's still streaming pretty much everyday. and multiple times a day even recently. i wouldn't call that lazy at all but just isn't organized

>>32408725
He was already wanting to get rid of the schedule and only stuck with it cause some regulars were vocal about wanting it. He probably felt that it was too unreliable at this point to even bother having anymore

>>32408837
man's allergic to creating thumbnails with 1% effort put into them, he's definitively lazy when it comes to things surrounding his streams

1 million wombs...

>>32408941
ichimin, your katakana reps

>>32408941
...impregnated

>>32408969
Robe's womb!

>>32408838
makes sense i guess. since he doesn't stream when he doesn't feel like it, having a schedule kind of a pain to stick to
>>32408914
he hates making thumbnails which is understandable and he isn't the only. you should see Kuzuha use the exact same thumbnail for his APEX stream which is the most low effort shit i've seen
but Roberu is definitely not lazy one bit when it comes to streaming itself

>>32407889
That fucking bird

is the apex scrims day 3 today or tomorrow?

>>32408941
ABE LOVE

>>32409169
an anon said there's gonna be more today

>>32409031
Making Son into a Mama!

I wonder if Robel is watching Cali right now

>>32409043
>you should see Kuzuha use the exact same thumbnail for his APEX
kek you aern't joking

>>32409766
JESAS

>>32409766
Im waiting until someone gets on the level of 2 weeks of hunting sim guy

>>32409841
damn that's just genius

>>32409766
Hey man as long as it works.

Isn't running scrims every day before a tournament a bit much, I mean if you get every team in you're basically already watching it

>>32410830
Its probably to give the teams something to work with and build a strategy for the big day, Take Astels team for instance. Up until after the first scrim he was playing Horizion for who knows how long then went to Gib since dome fighting was so prevalent

>>32409841
smoker...

>>32411021
That would be reasonable if they ran a couple days like a week before the tournament, but every day up to it feels excessive to me at least.

>>32410830
same thoughts. it leads to less individual practice and planning for teams, which are just as important as practice in actual games.

>>32410830
>>32411302
I mean it’s not like they have to participate in every single one, it’s up to the streamer.

>>32410830
They dont have to do each one, it also gives everyone a chance to scrim together without the pressure of having to ask personally for it, everyone has known about the tourny for a while and can/should have done practice as a team and individually beforehand or you can still squeeze it in around the official scrims.

How did we go from caramel camel to this?

>>32413649
You gotta eat the camel before it eats you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgWEt2Q-Xus
monhun in the menu boys

>>32414152
Color me surpirsed I actually didnt think it woudl be possible

>>32414152
I'm so happy its possible, I hope they like it enough to actually play rise when it comes out. Then I can grind monhun and watch at the same time.

>>32414152
Oga talked about it in his last stream. I was just unsure if they would play it privately or on stream.
As usual, the Stars are the ones pushing trends inside HoloPro

>>32415337
Shit you're right.
- Among Us
- Phasmophobia
- Mother Simulator
- now Monhun

>>32415718
>- Among Us
Coco, Towa and Chammers tried first
>- Phasmophobia
Gen 5 scheculed the collab before the homos announced theirs
>- now Monhun
Luna, Pekora and FBK were openly vocal about it

Knight bug stream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vj4yiZxGPIE

>>32416807
oh i thought this was happening later, thanks anon
also cute knight

>>32416545
Coco did jack shit and neither of the holos tried AU first in live, or you are gonna prove it with a frame.
For the other games, it doesn't change that the homos played it first, and since it needs to be planned, that means they prepared it before any holos went vocal about it.

Wait, Cover got Capcom rights or is this Momotaro all over again?

https://youtu.be/RUkE5CBfZm4

Yo, that anon that wanted more Temma drawing streams, get the fuck in here >>32416807

>>32417345
https://streamable.com/pzoafl I am here, I stayed up for this

The saddle blends right in with the bee.

The first of many tames...

SPIDER RIDERS

>>32417236
>Coco did jack shit and neither of the holos tried AU first in live, or you are gonna prove it with a frame.
Coco was quite literally about to have a guerilla Among us stream mid zatsudan
>that means they prepared it before any holos went vocal about it.
No, it means that it was already in the works, but that it will take a little. The homos can do those quick stream because they don't have much going on

>>32417236
The stars don't set trends because all of what they played had already been discussed extensively beforehand, can't set a trend that was already going to happen in the first place

I wish he was drawing in the bugs as well.

Ant is quite strong

>>32417666
>Coco was quite literally about to have a guerilla Among us stream mid zatsudan
No, she discussed about AU and planned to play with viewers later, but shortly before the stream started, she cancelled it because she was told by viewers about the unfounded rumor about the IP leak bug. The tweet is still around if you want to search it.
>No, it means that it was already in the works, but that it will take a little. The homos can do those quick stream because they don't have much going on
They had to group all the stars together, decide the rules and stream time, and train beforehand. It was not a small collab "quickly organized"

The butterfly was so fucking garbage, Temma had to give it pity stats elsewhere to compensate.

Butterfly should at least have good stamina, some do some crazy marathon migration

>>32414152
>>32415337
It would be funny if capcom give permission only for holostar

>>32418197
>No, she discussed about AU and planned to play with viewers later, but shortly before the stream started, she cancelled it because she was told by viewers about the unfounded rumor about the IP leak bug. The tweet is still around if you want to search it.
Yeah, Coco started the trend not the stars, because both Haachama and Towa talked about among us shorty after

>>32418551
Don't be a piece of shit idiot, let the stars have something they already get fucked by Cover on almost everything

It's partly because Im tired but I'm really enjoying the stupid battle system he is putting in place for these dumb giant bugs.

>>32418742
His game balancing is fucked though. It's either fucking garbage or an absolute machine, with no in-between.

>>32418551
It is crazy that cocofags are also around here instead of defending aggressively their failed oshi in the other thread. Since she didn't play it, she started nothing. Gen4 managers are pathetically uncompetent and there is no way that they managed to get permissions to play the game when you know that Towa had to wait 5 fucking months to be able to play Hollow Knights.
Haachama just jumped on the trend and started playing it after holos already played it.
The homos collab was still in work while it happened, just accept that the dragon went irrelevant way before the multiple hiatuses and that she is creatively bankrupted.

>>32418816
This is only bug 4 too, think of the power gap that we are going to have if he gets up to 10, or the strongest one where he makes so you actually need to have an alive butterfly for it.

>>32418816
that's nature's fault not temma's

>no FOXDEMON interaction since the birthday
FBK...

>>32418865
>>32418907
Nah, he's handing out 5/5 stars like it's candy on halloween. Right now he's putting the Rhinoceros beetle as Rex tier, imagine if we have a proper apex predator on the list. Something like the Giant Centipede would just shit on everything else.

>>32418991
Turing love...

>>32419078
I'm hoping dragonfly is on the list it has to be a good mount. Im expecting that eventually he is going to go past the 5/5 system and introduce hyper bugs since everything is so op. I imagine the giant centipede would be almost too hard to tame.

>>32419078
nips love beetles it's an obvious bias

>Shien and Oga Monster Hunter Rise
neat. looks like SC is disabled so it's a similar deal as Hololive members playing GTAV

>>32418833
Ok zhang

>>32419258
SHOGUN LOVE

>>32419303
Why are you here? Are you so poor that you can't throw supacha to your favourite Reddit dragon?

>>32419385
This is embarrassing zhang, please stop making a fool of yourself

The size difference on these things is immense.

>>32419539
Taiwan number one, Turkistan is a country, Free Tibet and Xi Jinping looks like Pooh. Are you satisfied now?

Now go to work and earn money for your favourite Reddit dragon instead wasting your time here

The fuck was that link Tenma?

>>32420038
The mantis young are pretty cute...

Dango Mushi stall master.

>>32420087
I can just imagine Temma trying to peddle his giant bugs to the other members, and you can hear Roberu, loud as ever, shrieking in the distance.

That was fun, I want the boss cat stats too. Cute knight.
>>32420275
Poor Roberu, I can just imagine Temma linking him the mantis egg video. Outside of it being bugs this whole thing felt like it couldve been a Roberu stream idea.

>>32420087
Pls nerf rhino
For fucks sake I just want to main pillbug in peace

>>32420338
Dont worry pill bug bro, once they roll out the next patch people will be begging us for the pillbug tech.

>>32420463
That's what the butterfly mains said three patches ago...

is temma unironically autistic?

>>32420827
Roberu did always say that you can't be a chuuba without a few screws missing.

>>32420856
ironically enough robert feels like he is the only normal chuuba out there, besides rikka but rikka does more kayfabe than other chuubas

>Oga monhun
I have exactly one friend that'll freak the fuck out when they wake up and find out

Also butterfly main a shit

>>32422828
>butterfly main a shit
why are rhinofags like this?

>>32422798
Why this? You know this is true

Does the homos playing MH today mean that Cover has Capcom permissions?

>>32423266
More like stream without monetization

>>32423266
Our homos seems to be guinea pigs to test the water. It's looking positive right now but then again, Capcom.

>>32423361
If that's the case, why no holo dare to stream capcom games before this? they seem fine streaming gta 5 without monetization

Like this anon >>32423392 said, test water with homo first.

>>32422629
SHOGUN LOVE

I heard that capcom just updated their rules about streaming and stuff.
Probably why we got to see monhun again.

>>32423486
The new rules explicitly state that people are allowed to monetize through superchats, the only monetization no-no is putting the content behind a paywall such as a members only stream.

>>32423549
>that people are allowed to monetize through superchats,
independent people specifically, for does who belong to corporation need permission from capcom

anons redpill me on rikka/oga
i already am into shien, astel, and son
are there any copypastas about them?

Day 3 ikuzuuuuuuuuuuuuu

>>32425311
I wanted to see his G7 shots..

Is it just me or is Izuru's POV dropping frames?

>>32425867
same here

>>32425867
yup

>>32425867
That's why I stick to Astel's pov. Shame there's none today.

Arupapa looks so lost, why is he rolling only volt?

how the fuck did they live that

That was so close

Goddamn it Izuru don't make me switch to Arupapa. Fix your shit

>>32426166
the enemies are occupied on the other side, so they got really lucky

>>32426177
One side is hard to watch thanks to dropping frames, the other is hard to watch because of bad plays... where's my seaweed pov?

>>32426232
I used Shiina's pov to watch them grass.

>2.7k damage
Goddamn Pakael is strong.

>>32426256
should've thought of that

>>32425867
I feel like his stream is always dropping frames when playing Apex.

it's a hard choice but i think i'll skip the scrims for some MonHun especially since there's no Seaweed POV

>HAL swapping in for Astel
I hope the other two learn a lot from him.

>>32426273
Lowkey carried TST to victory last tournament. Dude's good.

what happened to astel?

>>32426384
same. izuru's POV would've been been okay if not for the lag, and aruran's POV might give me an aneurysm if i watch for too long (still love him though)

Hal-san is a RAGGER.

>>32426446
Sitting this round out. Hal usually swaps in for a member of the teams to give hand-on coaching, same as last time. It's basically free coaching from a Master/Predator, so most teams take it.

Twappers...

HAL's chat praising the hell out of our boys. Niceee

Matsuri looks like she wants to play with pakael so bad

Wait, since when does Monster Hunter display damage numbers?

DESUWA

Pakael's on fire today.

>>32428216
since world but you can switch it off

why are oga's sc not disabled?

>>32428519
i would say he forgot but after everything Cover went through with Capcom, Shinove should be extra careful here

idzuru...

>>32428651
why did his stream suddenly die?

>>32428714
He stopped the stream, because it was too laggy.

Big Star and Rag took each other out really early...

>>32428519
SC are disabled, if you click on the dollar sign the option to join membership is the only one that shows up.

>>32429164
they really are. I guess I don't see it on shien's side because I already joined his.

>BIG STAR at 18th
>RAG at 16th
The won the battle but lost the war. In Astel opinion though, that fight was big in sending a message that they can win a firefight against BIG STAR.

https://twitter.com/kanadeizuru/status/1351531836120285194
Izuru probably won't restart his stream
I wonder if he can get his equipment fixed until the tournament but I doubt it a bit

>>32424300

THEY FUCKING DID IT AGAIN
And Hal's praising Astel a lot.

nice going boys

>>32430033
His keyboard in the last tournament now this...is he cursed

>>32430418
My headcanon is that all the Holostar mascots are basically SCP creepypasta level threats, some just take longer to reveal their fangs. Hanasaki Forest, Cameru-chan, Chungami, basically everyone. Especially the cute ones like Hiyamaru.

>>32430511
Cute!!

>>32430892
>don't see the reply
I blocked that fucker on sight

It was overall a very good day for RAG.
They got a champion, got coached and even won skirmishes against BIG. Even the random viewers on Hal's stream mention them among the big favorites.
It's all very heartening to see.

Monster hunter archive is fun, hope we get more of this, Boss guiding and helping out Oga is really cute. I hope we can get some full party hunts when the game releases. Temma also plays at least but I get the feeling he would keep that to the roomate side

>>32427806

No one in hololive can complain about having low subscribers

My heart feels warm when people compliment Astel

>>32429395
Truly, chibistars

>>32435729
I checked Hal's archive and his chat during the Champion game just made me smile hard. It's sad that Aruran can't keep up at all, he's just a radar for Astel and Izuru at this point.

>>32436305
Aruran probably picked up Apex for Astels sake of keeping the team Stars focused. It would take some extreme training to get him on their level in such a short time

>>32436435
Sweet arupapa doing astel for the kusogakis

Spreadsheet updated for Day 3. Astel got dethroned for most damage, falling down to 3rd, but that's understandable since Pakael was just popping off the entire day.

>>32437060
All members of Big Star and APW in the top 10 kills. Insane.

>>32437428
BIGSTAR, APW and NSN look to be the favorites this time around. Though I am glad that our boys aren't too far off, and especially impressed that the girls are keeping up nicely.

Damn they got to play with Hal? That's cool.
>>32435017
Don't know why they're all jumping so late on the Turing Love train but I'm not complaining since it's one of my favorite cover songs.

100 kills endurance until yurustar later

>>32438461
Pizza papa is feeling the pressure, hope he manages to find a good rhythm going

>>32437862
>Don't know why they're all jumping so late on the Turing Love train
nah, unlike King, this song gets a new cover every 3-4 weeks

>>32437060
>Arupapa not the one with the least amount of damage and kills this time
i''ll take that as a win

>>32437971
this definitely would've been their year. here hoping for a gen 4 with someone to fill the King's shoes

>>32429395
Reine's mama is Pochi. Roberu is up to Reine's waist. Does Roberu count as a shota...?

>>32420827
why?

>Rikka no archive utawaku in 9 hours
i'm glad we still have Rikka even when Astel is busy with APEX

>>32439290
That man has already accepted reality...

>>32423266
Don't jump to conclusions too fast, it's probably ok since it's the demo and not the actual game
I wouldn't be surprised if they're just using the boys as a guinea pig since it's both less likely that Capcom knows about them in case they feel trigger happy with the manual strikes or that in case one of them has to get a strike, well better a homo than a holo

>>32439866
See>>32423686
It's likely they got the permission, and all corporate chuuba that played MH Rise turn off their monetisation. It doesn't mean anything to the girls tho since they rather allergic doing stream without monetisation on except GTAV

>>32423396
>>32439866
>>32423396
Note that Capcom revived their video policy a couple weeks ago: https://www.capcom.co.jp/site/privacy_06.html
It's pretty explicitly stated that businesses using their content have to contact them for a license to do so. Even if they had permission, monetization would have been disabled anyways because Capcom have never allowed it whether it be for other companies like Nijisanji who have worked with Capcom for years / have permission or independent streams (who bother to ask).
Curious if this is a one off deal or what, we'll see.

Watching the scrim from Hals perspective and it seems that Noses team pretty much everyones favorite to win unless they encounter Astel then its a matter of who wins that fight.

>>32440560
Based underdog

>>32440560
I would say that Astel is basically what Gorilla was last tournament. He's gonna do some heavy damage but is gonna be ultimately nerfed by his team mainly Arupapa
I don't think Gorilla himself is much of a threat since he's basically playing with 2 Arurans
Still, i think Astel has a shot at winning this or at least making top 3 but that might be just me being optimistic

>>32426487
I way Aruran plays bloodhound....I mean sure it's useful to see/pinpoint enemy locations but to hang back and just do that? I just think bloodhound should be used by people that are a little more aggressive. I think he would be better suited to use bangalore, think it would suite his play style better. Plus Gibbys and Bangs ults together is a death sentence.

>>32441028(me)
The* way fuck you brain.

>>32440893
>two arurans
How much is an Aruran worth...

>>32441388
about 3 fiddy

>>32440893
>but that might be just me being optimistic
That makes two of us then. Big Star is not invincible and can be taken out, even by Astel's team. It's just a matter of playing it smart after that.

>>32444236
How long is this bed?

>>32444236
Ogre joined, cute!

>>32444816
Yagoo spares no expense with his summer getaway cabin, only the biggest bed for his boys.
Right next to the table tennis room.

>>32445300
I wonder if someone will play that table tennis game on stream as a joke one day

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OhsmSbjK9w
Come support Arupapa as he does his reps. I bet he feels really pressured not to be much of a hindrance

A Yurustar collab later? Did i hear that right?

oof not a great start

wild temma sighting

cute knight is supportive of the elderly

nani the fuck happened...

>>32445694
Yeah its for cooking simulator.

>>32445910
Ah didn't notice Aruran on the Jetri thumbnail because he was hidden by Temma's channel icon

>>32445968
Yeah, had deleted just to also link the room because why not: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mHEolY4JDc&feature=youtu.be

>>32445968
kek you're right

>>32445997
two temmas... double the knight to bully

>>32445997
Aruran Wazowski...

>>32446087
Sandwiched between two knights, spit-roasted by two knights, the cooking innuendos write themselves.

>>32446087
Oh my god anon imagine having two temmas that think they have now the upper hand but you make both of them blush and cry

Aruran is the kill leader i have seen everything

>>32446278
I blame you for the idea of teasing cute naked apron knights, why is he so suited for these situations. I'm upset we don't live in a world where we get slightly distracted by massagers cooking knight asmr. Imagine, just high enough setting to get a slight tremble in his voice as he explains what he is doing.

didn't expect Termma to become the most coveted homo after Kira was kill

>>32446855
I don’t think anyone would

>1 hour
>7 kills
he's not gonna make it

>>32446787
>temma with the electric massagers
Please Ogra-sama hear our wish

>>32447061
I believe in Aru, he will get there before the collab...didnt actually notice its been an hour already

>>32446855
switching from lewdest homo to the purest... really makes you think.

>>32447112
>Ogra
you should write his name like normal in case he still ego-searches on warosu and grants your wish

>>32447182
Why do people think Tenma is pure

>>32447221
That’s reaching further than me reaching for Temma’s booty

>>32447381
i don't know. if i was him i would check out the mysterious foreign site where people give their unfiltered opinions about me.

please...leave some kills for papa...

>>32447329
Exaggeration formed on some of the things hes said, being unlucky/uninterested in romance, family guy, surprisingly moe when thanking the other stars unexpectedly.
Also seems surprised by how many people in his chat wanted to be scolded by him the few times he has done voice lines. Probably lied about not hearing about straight shota before Roberu, etc
Knights is very cute

that kill counter hasn't gone up in a while now...

That was foolish to sit in the corner by the door like that..

>>32447869
It went from 7 to 8 just now!

>>32447902
y- yay

>>32447986

Honestly expected mass destruction there for a moment, Apex is warping my already shit brain.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDerMI4BdN8
Roberu

Wish more players would use grenades on downed enemies. Faster than trying to break shields or execute them.

just woke up and apparently RAG somehow won a round with aruran giving 0 damage. looking at the VOD, his map awareness was essential for them in winning but it's still hilarious to think how a 2-man team is racking up these wins

>I will be streaming a lot of APEX
a- apex... saiko
tbdesu watching Roberu stumble in APEX isn't so bad and KNS are a pretty fun team

>Roberu DDLC
yes please

>>32449043
Never wouldve expected that from him for some reason, wonder if those streams will have an even bigger audience than usual. Its surprising how big of a draw ddlc is still.

>1500 streams by the end of the year
sugoi

Racking up kills this match at least.

>>32447329
They don't watch him or they don't know japanese. We all know the "purest" homo is actually pizza dad.

Battleship was a top tier movie. Roberu has good taste

How do we save the homos?

>>32448994
I like watching the KSN POV when the pressure from watching RAG gets too much. It's fun to see them do their best even if I know they have an insanely low chance of winning. I'm cheering on RAG for the sheer amount of work that they put in but the unexpected wins from KSN is always a treat.

>>32450728
Save from who?

>>32450728
they don't need saving
you on the other hand? I prescribe a bottle of aspirin in one go to rid yourself of that saviour faggotry

>>32450728
They don't need saving. They're doing fine and beginning to rise on their own. This year is holostars year.

Also check out the idiot in Arurans chat.

>>32450889
Dude's probably baiting and farming (You)s but that's a nice prescription.

>>32450821
Horny aunties

>>32450965
I'm afraid it's inevitable for Temma.

So uh asking for a friend, who else was praising Astel?

>>32448775
Funnier still is that two man team became known as one of the few teams that can take BIGSTAR down in a firefight

>>32448775
>>32451287
Arusan...

>>32451203
Hal and Towa from what I recall. The amount of dmg he can do is pretty crazy.

>>32451390
He's their mascot

>>32451287
>>32451390
>>32448775
Don't be like that. Aruran acts has the scout/eyes for the team!

>>32451503
you can also do that and deal some damage

>>32450951
>beginning to rise on their own.
Their numbers have been about the same for the past 5 months

do they have official merch?

>>32451503
0 damage tho...

>>32451580
Are you stupid?

>>32451735
he's baiting, anon. pay him no mind

>>32450951
>Also check out the idiot in Arurans chat.
What happened?

>>32451580
in the case that you're serious, they've been steadily inclining but it's not that obvious because of the youtube bug

>>32451716
Do you like socks?

>>32451815
He's probably hinting at that EOP trying to make Arusan speak in English and arguing with people in chat like an idiot.

oh Lack-papa stopped by earlier

>>32451815
>>32451964
Yep, it was awhile ago. I think he's gone. Kept saying "Why you no speak English, the girls do it?"

>>32452091
sounds like a troll

wew nice one arupapa

>>32451859
I know socks are safer/cost less to produce but I really wish they went with hats instead.

>>32451859
Is this $15 for a pair of socks

>>32452343
Honestly I still wonder why they don't try to do it. Aruran in general has a lot of good clothing design in general.

>>32451203
It's mostly from Shiina whenever her team spectates them.

>>32452638
what game(s) did she spectate them?

Did Chibistars get as many praises during the last tournament as RAG is getting right now? I’m too new.
I remember hearing Kuzuha complimented Astel.

>>32452589
Yeah I really like Arus shirt, I even like Miyabis stupid shirt. Covid really screwed shipping where I am but if Arus shirt is still around in april Id like to add one to my proxy order.

>>32452789
didnt follow the scrims from last tournament that intently, but i remember kanae praising them in the last round of the actual tournament

im pretty sure RAG is getting more praise now, especially with how astel is pretty much the gorilla of this tournament

If anything, this confirms that girls love apex autists

>>32453014
Yea, so they can get carried to wins. Same shit happens for twitch streamers.

Hal & Astel haven’t spoken right? I saw a bunch of ‘nice 声‘ for Izuru

>>32452789
>kuzuha
And Kanae, I watched it many times like an autist

>>32452343
Scarfs would be good as well

>>32451425
Hal spectated Astel moments before he landed like 5 consecutive shots with the G7 on someone he barely had vision on everyone was pretty amazed when it happened

Rare Kaze no sakana

No archive Rikka soon

>>32454715
i was legitimately about 3 seconds away from posting this, guess i'll still post the art i was planning to use though

Just a sudden thought that's been on my mind but sometimes, somehow, when Roberu says he loves himself it feels a lot more like his roommate saying he loves Roberu. Like, not in a self-love way but in a way that he likes the character of Roberu as a separate entity. Then again this is just the narrative in my head lol.

>>32454758
I've always liked that one, oddly enough base Rikka doesnt do much for me but he gets some great fanart. I really like his brothers look though.

>>32454715
I wish no archive singing streams weren’t so normalized among them

>>32455082
I like it since they get to sing more of what they would want to but I can see why people would dislike it, at least Rikka and Izuru put up their rooms on a schedule or at least a few hours in advance.
With Astel youre lucky to get an hours notice and the one time Temma did the disney one it was something like 15 minutes beforehand.

Lack is back in papa's chat.

Kinda wish Rikka/Izuru sing without guitar, they sounds so much better without playing an instrument.

Why is the game just sending Aru out alone.

>>32455677
birth of solorandis

Gekkouka is a really nice pick.

>>32453876
Astel's G7 accuracy is mind boggling, I've never seen him use it before Day 2 scrims, yet he just slams shots into the enemies so easily

>>32454772
recently I was thinking about how anons should start taking their meds to stop them from having stupid thoughts like yours

>>32456492
I ran out of actual meds I really need them and my local pharmacy hasn't stocked them because of the pandemic. Anyway, thanks, I needed that. Excited for the scrims later too.

>>32451716
They've got acrylics, buttons, towels and some shirts, yeah.

>>32453281
They have when Hal coached Chibistars for a round last tournament. So yes, but not much.

>>32451716
There's quite a bunch but not as much as the main branch. If you plan to buy physical goods I guess all I can say is that Geekjack sucks. The latest ones are the tassel keychains and the NY outfit acrylic stands.

>>32451859
lol i forgot about the socks. not the most exciting piece of merch to be honest

>>32456598
cool, i'll probably buy something

>>32456664
>Geekjack
oh i wasn't sure if that was the official place to buy or not. where else should i look?

>>32456920
>where else should i look?
Buy from booth using a proxy/forwarding service

>>32457864
holy based seaweed, i was wanting to see more of his G7 plays after last night

>>32457864
Are we going to have scrims today?

>>32457928
Scrims are daily until the tournament, so yes. Unless RAG for some reason declines to participate in some of them, they are voluntary after all.

arusan...you still have the yurustar collab...

>>32458068
I really don't wanna be a concernfag but I'm getting kinda worried. Either way, if Aruran pushes himself it's his decision since he knows his limits anyway.

CHAMPION!

Astel... gacha isn't going to make you perform better...

>>32458305
Na man dont you know skins=skill if he gets a cool G7 skin his accuracy will go through the roof

>>32458305
No man, this is Astel we're talking about. A G7 skin just might have enough placebo effect on him that he'd perform even better on it.

Kill leader Aru! He might get close to the halfway point before the collab.
