Become tired after many busy days abusing the girls. Needs a break.

>>14604785
Cover realized they never needed this ‘producer’ and silently fired him.

Sex break

Cover realized that it was what killed Council, so they fired it.

The only thing he did was steal Council thunder in the middle of their debut and inspired some decent art which funny enough usually involves it antagonizing or fighting Ame in some way.

It was literally Leonard Nimoy from that Simpsons episode.

>>14604785
Dont worry about it.

>>14604785
got tired of everyone shitting his precious lore kek, gura said that 'buff gura' was her canon appearance.

>>14604785
I wonder does he know that he already got some haters and antis...

>>14605796
We already know several chuubas browse here, surely the spastic manager guy also does.

They couldn’t take all the disrespect towards their lore and “debut” and finally broke after Gura told him to fuck off when he wanted her new outfit to be an aged up version of her

>>14604785
Considering how council flopped and holoX was a success, cover finally realized all they need is a-chan and not some nepotism tranny

>>14604785
Probably just immensely dissapointed

>>14604785
YAY

>>14604785
Omega is MIA.
Calli seems much happier and is more productive than she has ever been.
Ame is taking charge and acts as proxy producer.
Ina brings out a new song immediately.

>>14604785
I mating pressed her into submission.

>>14604785
he left to fight Omicron

>>14604785
His job is very stressful. It isn't easy finding ways to debuff vtubers when they have the Hololive buff by simply existing. He needs to take a vacation and figure out new ways to make council suck and lose numbers

>>14607119
This, he must have been fired. It's about time.

>>14604785
He is pregnant. Who did it? Which one of you anons?

>>14604785

It's night and day.

The other four haven't really pulled their punches about Omega, but did Ina ever say anything about him? Or are the nepotism rrats true?

>>14608091
cringe faggot

>>14609460
Ina's mentioned Enma a couple of times, but nothing really about Omega.

>>14609541
I wonder why

>chat shitting omega
>Can't hold back laughter
What did she mean by this?

>>14604785
He's headed to the depths of the Abyss in search of a relic that will make him a real woman.

>>14608388
Ahaha, wow.

>>14610182
Her contempt for vtweeters can barely be restrained

>>14605592
Not a fair comparison, Leonard Nimoy saved Krusty's life in that episode.

Died, hopefully

Everyone unironically using singular they or made up pronouns to address him is a massive faggot.

>>14604785
Probably setting up a studio state-side so HoloEN can have regular 3D streams.

>>14604785
He was a pointless gimmick that was trying to capitalize on the success of A-chan and the design Ina thought up one night for EN "A-chan" that got a little popular. Fortunately someone higher up realized they gave him too much sway and stopped it before things got bad. Now hopefully he is back to helping the talent instead of wasting time trying to become the talent.

>Mori recently said that she can collab with Critikal now
>Said something had changed
Could it be?
Is he truly gone?

Tranny has menhera and needs to be fired

Is it Omega that Kiara's destroying here?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knyX20eKU3U

>>14613124
That thumbnail is stupid, Kiara has ALWAYS shit on management, she never pulls punches with how she feels about them.
She is right tho, the council lore is getting stupid, like what's gen 3 gonna be at this rate, what's above literal gods.

>>14608388
What was the comment that made her laugh? I can't make out what she says before she laughs.

>>14612690
I'll stick with "it"

>>14613318

>>14613318
>She is right tho, the council lore is getting stupid, like what's gen 3 gonna be at this rate, what's above literal gods.
I'm guessing the next thing to happen is Omega getting his creative rights revoked after Council's lore was a huge debuff and we go back to cute pirates/aliens/etc.

>>14613318
How about girls at anime high? We could have a president, jock, childhood friend, nerd, and genki

>>14610182
Which video?

>>14613318
My pipe dream is still the HoloVillain idea someone pitched before Council was a thing.

>>14614543
See that's my point, this is what some the earlier gens where, wildest we got in gen 0 is Roboco and I don't think she's part of any gen.
Shit like high school girl, sporty girl and so on and then fucking myth are mythological creatures and then literal gods.

Why? It be one thing if the lore went somewhere but it never does.
"So here's this time god and they fucking love minecraft"

>>14614543
The problem is that "Vtubers at an anime high" is basically every other Nijisanji generation.

>>14604785
He's taking a vacation to fuck me senseless and leave me unable to walk.

>>14614896
funny thing is, girls like korone, okayu, and ayame are technically mythical beings yet theyre played as casual and more "human"
meanwhile council had like 3 vids dedicated to their "deep lore"

>>14614610
Here you go: >>14608388

>>14604785
Enma is taking over. The period of absence will be used for training Enma to do her duties.

>>14604785
Literally who?

>>14615159
Thank you

>>14615178
What if Enma and A-Chan just took over HoloEN, do you think things would improve or get worse?
A-chan has now shown up in more HoloEN videos than Omega ever has.

>>14615030
Better than whatever the fuck EN2 is supposed to be.

>>14614896
Nothing wrong with it. It's just to contextualize whatever design they have. Can't do "normal high schooler" since there's no hope for that aesthetic to be as marketable or stand out nowadays. The ones that are generic like that and have marketability are the ones that have been here for years now.
Myth doesn't need lore as the designs still read fine as a "mythology" theme.
It's just Council made DeviantArt lore and the rest is history.

>>14613318
Ready for Id, Ego, SuperEgo?

>cant you aprehend?

>>14612690
You can use any pronouns for them dumbass! He even said it on her twitter!

>>14604785

My favorite was when she was talking about some EN event, mentioning Myth, Council and IRyS joining. Someone in chat was like "and Omega?" and she went off.

>>14617788
Which one was this?

>>14617661
No, I'm gay

>>14608388
This is the most absolutely Based thing I’ve seen all week.

They realized EN viewers don't give a shit about cryptic lore.
>>14608388
And neither does the talent

>>14617788
Please Anon I need the clip. I need more Omega getting ass fucked by HoloEN.

He played so much FF14 that he's been ordered by the federal government to take a break from computer screens for several years.

>>14617857
>>14618133
Sorry guys. I can't find it. To be more specific, her response was something like "why the fuck would he be there?"

>>14618532
I remember exactly what you're talking about, it would be in a SC reading sometime very soon after Omega "debuted". Yeah, Kiara has always struck me as having the most visceral dislike of Omega.

So what exactly does he do besides tweeting? I know he's a producer of some sort so I guess he's in charge of getting permissions/sending DMCA/setting up collabs and events?

>>14604785
Gonna debut soon, so looking for appropriate VA

>>14618800
Prevent collabs with NijiEN. Prevent collabs with Coco before she decided to graduate. Forcing shitty lore.

Memes aside, irrational fan hate aside, my problem with Omega is just: "why?" Why does this manager need a character if they aren't going to show up on stream? Why do they need to answer questions on Twitter? A-chan has a character because she actually shows up on streams sometimes. I didn't understand the point of Omega on day one, and I still don't. If you aren't going to perform, get off stage and continue to be part of the crew.

>>14618800
Who really knows? I think all we know for sure is that he seemingly has/had creative control on IRyS' music, and we can most likely assume he was the "genius" behind both her and Council's designs and concepts in general. He claims to be the first hire of HoloEN.
I vaguely recall an anon posting an excerpt form an interview someone in HoloEN gave to a website or magazine about wanting their characters to be "players" in some sort of story, does anyone have that or are the voices in my head lying to me?

>>14618932
That's also how I feel. I think he's a goober from the tweets of his that I've read but it's not like I hate him or anything. It reeks of someone who's maybe a little jealous of A-chan and the talents.

>>14618926
I actually felt really bad for Council when they had to introduce Omega. It was literally their own debut. A full day of hard work and nervousness.
And then they give them a video to play that they didn’t even know about. And it was some fucking tranny that they have no idea about. And had to be like “uuuum yeah so that was whatever that was.”

And now he literally does so little that nobody even knows what he does. And the HoloEN members clearly fucking hate him.

>>14619111
Wow, I didn't watch any of the debuts from Council so I missed this. That's real awkward

>>14615649
Get the rope you pronoun schizo. He or she. Everything else is either mental retardation or mental illness.

>>14618932
>Memes aside, irrational fan hate aside, my problem with Omega is just: "why?"
Anon, that's why we make fun of him. Nobody knows why. It was a confusing reveal and we got no answers, except tranny ones that alienated 50% of the fan base right away.

>>14619140
https://youtu.be/7S9QhFeGw60?t=3418
Here, have a timestamp. It's so awkward it almost hurts to watch, Kronii reads his ridiculous lore in a deadpan tone of voice and then they're all just befuddled at what the fuck this even is.

>>14619078

Why is Omega so fucking Chuunni? is he going to save the world from a meteorite by revealing the secret power on his eye given by the demon king himself that he seals with a magic eyepatch given to him by the queen of fairies?

>>14619003
I think he's the person who Marine talked about.

>>14620146
*the

>>14619416
Is Gura's tail pointless just because you usually see only her head? Nah. The whole concept still matters for things like merch, outfits, 3d, etc. etc.

>>14620155
I must've missed this. Mind sharing?

Irys is recording new songs so his/her saving grace is the upcoming new Irys' EP or whatever she is recording.
Other than that, who the fuck knows?

>>14620291
I...really hope is not that manager she met and HE asked her to say her line ("I'm horny") on their first meeting.
That would just show not only is a troon but also just a casual watcher.

Here's a clip of that. And yeah I definitely bet that's Omega. I don't know how one man can have so little self-awareness.

>>14619003
If that’s true I hate him even more.
His design gave IRyS a debuff that she masterfully overcame.
And looking back on how stupid the trailers for council were makes me think he’s a retard.
Plus IRyS’s music side of things gets almost no support and the songs they’ve given her besides Caesura of Despair aren’t great. She’s a great singer. They are the ones that fucked her VSinger side of things.

>>14604785
he passed the audition and is preparing for his nijisanji debut OP

>>14620616

>>14615123
Honestly the problem is not really them being supernatural beings or not, the problem is how chuuni it fucking plays out, like you say Korone Okayu Ayame Mio and Fubuki are all mythical beings, Fubuki is a fucking Kitsune, Korone and Okayu's last names are literally "Inugami" and "Nekomata", yet they are all way more grounded lore-wise

>gJ: Auditions for new members of hololive English have just ended. Did you plan from the start to gradually increase the number of members and knew the timing as well? If not, can you tell us why you decided to expand the hololive English family at this time?

>hololiveEN: Well, I can't give you a definite answer, but the plan itself is booked up to one year in advance. I think the reason why we decided to expand might be because we felt that we didn't have enough characters for the story yet. I can only say that for now.

>>14620831
yeah people have brought it up before how they have these long cringe bios for Council compared to Korone's single sentence about how she's a dog that likes to play games.

>>14620616
Sounds too cringe to be real, but seeing how retarded ENmanagement appears to be I wouldn't put past them.

>>14620953
>we felt that we didn't have enough characters for the story yet

>>14619405
Was it really so fucking hard to tell them? like what the fuck, at least let them know so they can prepare some skit about it or something, do not even have to show the video if you want the raw reactions, just fucking tell them "Hey, this manager here is going to have an avatar and you are going to introduce his character during your stream, ok?"

>>14620616

>>14618591

Playing devil's advocate for that random manager guy, when he told Marine to "Say the thing" he probably referred to "Ahoy"

Ok, apparently i have been missing some pretty based moments from Kiara because 8 hour vods and her voice filter the fuck out of me, but would you know in what stream did that happened?

>>14620616
So many comments like this one underneath that video.

>>14621165
It's still pretty rude and shows he have no social grace or self awareness. Asking a talent to perform for you on the spot like some side show act when they are not "on" is just poor etiquette.

>>14621202
letting the talent create and foster their own natural interactions and bonds with other members is dangerous. They need to only talk and collab with management approved members, so that it will further the overall story of the branch. dance on the strings, holo puppets, there will be no drama here that isn't scripted by Omega, GOD of all Hololive!

Yeah, I'm sure Mel's manager was cultured too. Fucking normalfags.

Can we make Omega Hate General a thing?

>>14621364
If that is the case, how would someone like that get a job on a company lice Cover? seriously, what the fuck does Omega DO?

I'm going to steal Omega's job and fuck his mom.

>>14619405
There's no other word for me to describe this with. I "cringed" very, very hard watching this clip. Thanks for sharing it.

>>14621636
I’m wondering if Omega is the main EN manger and just made the character for himself because he’s a retard.
No wonder everyone hates him.

If I find out it was actually Omega who shit on Gura for "requesting too many game permissions" infront of Council when they were still really new I'm going to kyoani the office. The fucking balls on this tranny.

>>14620831
The designs have a part in it, too. You can see Korone and Okayu just hanging out playing video games.

>>14619405
Anon I physically can not watch it

>>14621053
>>14621270
Oh please like we wouldn't do that stuff as well
Not to mention marine seems what content? Let's face it, the jp girls like normie stuff, we're going to have an aneurism if we start going against the "mainstream" when the girls absolutely love it

>>14621636
Literally nobody knows what he does. And for someone with a "character" literally nobody talks about him on stream and when they do it's negative.
How he got the job? No idea, maybe the candidate pool of English speakers was really small. May be he has yagoo's dick pics. Who the fuck knows. Fuck omega.

>>14621636
seems like a similar situation happens all over with English branches of Jap companies. Nintendo is an obvious example. You'd think a company as big as Nintendo would have better standards, but they put a bunch of Omegas in charge of their US branch and they absolutely butchered the Fire Emblem series.

>>14621906
>Oh please like we wouldn't do that stuff as well
I guarantee I wouldn't ask any Holo to "say the line" if I met them for some reason, just like I wouldn't ask an actor to recite lines from a role or an artist to paint me a picture on the spot

>>14619405
>Kronii, could you please read for us? Ehehehe

>>14621906
Seems like a requirement to get into Hololive is to have some kind of anti-social disorder
Marine herself is a massive otaku and generally socially awkward creep

>>14621934
That's a good question though, WHY did he get hired?
If he really is this awful person as we've been lead to believe, why isn't he fired already
There had to be a reason why he was picked for... whatever he does
One thing is for certain, he truly is doing something if he has been on the job by now
And before you give a reason why being awful won't get him fired (but still do so, I'm curious) there's being an awful person and then there's being useless, and being useless absolutely gets you laid off because there's literally nothing to gain from you, so again HE REALLY IS DOING SOMETHING I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HE DOES

>>14621906
No, I actually would not anon. At least not when I first met someone, and even then if I was ever gonna do a "say the line" to any holomem as a staff or coworker then there would probably be drinking or some other activity involved and it would be in context of that line perhaps. And that's a huge if.
It's just not how adults behave in the work place, especially in Japan.

>>14621906
There is no way in hell I would be that jovial with someone I just met in a professional setting, and I certainly wouldn't demand that they say a catchphrase first thing either.

Although realistically I could invoke a different kind of cringe on my own just due to being starstruck since I'm an ichimi

>>14616201
Holofightz is real

>>14622114
I'm as clueless as you anon. In general Japanese businesses are weird as fuck. They are sticklers for tradition and old ways. Look at Nintendo and Sony and the weird ass decisions they make, or the anime/manga industry in general.

>>14621971
Ok I get the artist one, but the actor not reciting something from a role when a fan ask is bullshit because there has been a lot of example of people going to place an actor or va is at and they ask to "say the line" specially on cons where VA goes to Q&A and they asked to say something from one of their roles
>>14622100
Was that not obvious? Didn't the early generation girls stated that some are "failed" idols or just not up to the "status quo"?

>>14621791
>If I find out it was actually Omega who shit on Gura for "requesting too many game permissions"
Fucking lmao, what?
It's literally an email you need to send, what do Cover managers even do.

I once read a rrat that claimed he moderates Ina's chat.

>>14622325
>people going to place an actor or va is at and they ask to "say the line" specially on cons
That's the difference, anon. The actors at a convention or Q&A panel are there specifically to cater to their fans. Marine and that manager were in the workplace when this happened and she was making it clear that she thought he was acting like a weirdo.

>>14622325
>specially on cons where VA goes to Q&A and they asked to say something from one of their roles
Con appearances = Actor working, appropriate to ask.
Meeting an actor in the hallways of the recording studio as a colleague = Actor not working. unprofessional to ask.

>>14621791
>>14622369
Gura said that it was a new manager, apparently it was not Omega.

>>14622464
Everything is making sense.
Omega isn’t just the retard tranny with no job. Omega is the manager that blocks all of their collabs, says no to all their games, and made fun of Gura in front of council. What a piece of shit.

>>14622325
>there has been a lot of example of people going to place an actor or va is at and they ask to "say the line" specially on cons where VA goes to Q&A and they asked to say something from one of their roles
I don't know what other situations you had in mind, but the one you gave actually acts as an example in favour of what the other anon said. In a situation where a seiyuu is at a con, they are there sort of representing themselves as the voices of those characters. It's one thing for the fans attending to con and going to meet them to ask, though still in poor taste when you think how often they probably get asked to do that. This was a business setting and not something most people would do, knowing full well it's bad manners.

>>14622325
Cons are a bit different, they have that expectation when meeting fans in a con.
This was literally just in an office as a coworker.

>>14622464
this makes me worried. Gura listing off a bunch of games she wanted to play should not have been taken as her wanting them all, but as her giving plenty of suggestions from which they can choose from. also weird that a new manager with the new talent would be trying to high road the senior (and most popular) talent

>>14622540
I'll be honest, I think I'm defending this because i don't see hololive as professional and they have stories of being the embodiment of antisocial weirdos
And yeah I get the managers are not the same as the girls, but everything there seems so innocent for the most part. Keyword being for the most part, I'm well aware of mel's incident

>>14604888
>MMOs still exist in 2022-1 month

>>14622831
Innocent sure, but unprofessional. Keep in mind that your impression of Hololive comes from the characters they portray on stream. You don't get to see any of the stuff that goes on behind the scenes or any of the actual work that gets done at the company.

>>14622831
It's not like it was a horrific sin or anything (and also we don't know whether it was Omega or not, just some EN manager). It was just kinda unprofessional, although it obviously didn't really offend Marine.

>>14622831
Fair enough, I get that feeling too, that as a tech company Cover is a very casual and "hip" young company as opposed to traditional uptight and formal Japanese businesses.
But still, fuck him

>>14622876
Final Fantasy XI came out before WoW, still charges the same sub fee it always has and still has a sizeable playerbase. People still play Ultima Online and Everquest, even. The money is still there.

>>14622464
They did end up getting permissions for most of those games. She never did manage to get permissions for Valheim, which she was very enthusiastic about when it was at it's peak, though. But, that could be excused by the devs being too busy fucking their new horses while running with the money to respond to the email.

>>14622924
It would be weird if even a fan asked them to say a line when first meeting them. Having the manager of the EN branch do it, especially a sexual line, is just fucking weird.

>>14621791
>If I find out it was actually Omega who shit on Gura for "requesting too many game permissions"
But getting permissions is literally his job what the actual fuck? "Yes talent, stop making me work so much, you absolute cunt."

>>14623053
Yeah, I think the sexual nature of the line kinda got lost in the shuffle here. You're right.

>>14622974
I hate world of warcraft so much.

>>14622369
I don't know how management of a vtuber company works but if it's similar to low-tier management of a political organization, the middle management is composed of perpetual adult children who do little work and offload their responsibilities onto others while seething that their immediate superior makes more than them.

So I assume they do nothing and feel they're underpaid for doing so.

>>14621202
some may have noticed but everything past Myth feels like very corp oriented, meant to grow the brand not the talent, having more cards in your deck not winning assets. HoloAlternatice is just that, mark my words people gonna be doing gacha and collecting digital goods of the talents, how will that benefit the girls? it wont

>>14615936
>>14613555
You have to remember that the comments read usually already scroll past what's in the stream, or pause for a bit.

>it's your first day at Cover Corp, the overseers of HoloLive.
>You're actually a huge fan, but managed to keep your spaghetti in check during the interviews, your JP reps have finally paid off.
>You hear some talent will be in today for a recording session, perfect timing.
>Later you're in the engineer's booth, and behind the glass infront of you are several holomems recording lines for a special episode of Hologra.
>You just can't help yourself, you made it, and the director just stepped out for a smoke break. Now was your chance.
>In the recording booth is Korone, Subaru, and Miko.
>It's showtime. You plug in your phone and start recording.
>You tell the girls the session is starting early with some off script warmups.
>In moments you have korone barking like a black mailman was in the room, Subaru quacking and Miko speaking gibberish.
>The director is back, and he is in shock at the display before him.
>"GOOD MORNING MOTHERFUCKER" you scream with no reason at all.
>You unplug your phone and run, stopping only to grab Miko's jacket and take a sniff.
>You can never go back, but you will always have your precious mp3s of korone barking.

>>14621636
I'm told by /vt/ everything is nepotism, so the new rrat is that Yagoo used to be Gary Taniguchi 30 years ago during his time as an exchange student in Americaland and knew Omega's dad.

>>14622114
He was the only one who applied and now he has seniority which makes him untouchable in Japan.

>>14623512
Whaaaat the fuck.

>>14623464
It would benefit them in the same way it benefits cover, it would boost their brand, it's useful as long as they continue to be in the entertainment/music/VA industry

>>14604785

>>14623464
certainly could have gotten better talent for Council, unless they really really wanted that Australian audience.

>>14622114
The interview linked in >>14620953 has the answer. He was hired to do localization, but then decided to propose an english branch to Yagoo. Since it was his proposal I guess Yagoo put him in charge of it.

>grape Japan (gJ): First of all, thank you for accepting and granting us your valuable time for this interview.

>To begin, can you tell us about your motivation for launching "hololive English" last year?

>hololive English (hololiveEN): COVER Corp., Ltd. has been implementing a strategy to reach out to potential customers overseas by localizing hololive content (making it available in local languages), and we are doing the same for English-speaking countries. Since YouTube now has a total subscriber "population" of about 2 billion users as of November 2020, we believe that one of our main tasks, namely subtitling archived videos, is very important as a means of acquiring overseas fans.

>However, from a long-term perspective, this alone will limit the spread of our content and gradually weaken its influence. I was in charge of localization right after I joined the company, and in order to solve this problem, one day I suggested to President Tanigo that we should localize the entire hololive content itself. This is what led to the establishment of the current hololive English.

>>14623648
I think Bae and Fauna are good chuubas. Mumei and Kronii are okay.
I don’t know what the fuck Sana is doing. Debuffed model. Took a whole month off at the beginning of her career. Barely streams. Doesn’t collab despite needing the new viewers.

>>14622540
>Con appearances = Actor working, appropriate to ask.
This, people forget that voice actors are paid to appear at cons and don't do it for for free.

>>14623791
/vt/ rrat says that Sana got in through pure nepotism

>>14623791
She didn't particularly try to be in that spot and she doesn't particularly care about building herself up, she just wanted to be in to make friends

>>14623595
>the same way it benefits cover
Branding does wonder for a corporation and number but it does nothing for raw content, or do you actually like HoloX? I see nothing exciting there even if they breach the million mark by april

>>14623803
Exactly. They are being paid to show up as their character at cons. And even then I still think it would be weird to demand them to say a line.
It’s so much worse that she was literally walking around Cover Corp and some Gaijin comes up to her and says “Ahoy!! Hey!! Say the line! Say I’m horny!”
Oh and that guy is the manager of the EN branch.

>>14623791
Sana purposely filters people, because she only wants people who like her around. Also the month off thing was mostly because she got sent to Aussie concentration camps. Twice. Two weeks for each direction. Probably going to happen again for the Christmas break.

>>14623874
Anon Hololive is the top level of vtubing that someone can reach. Why would anyone join just to make a couple friends. This is the professional league of vtubing. Just being accepted garuntees you 200k subs on day 1.

>>14623949
Laplus is a wonder talent, she herself justifies the entire gen

>>14620616
God I hope this guy doesn't manage Holomyth

>>14623750
Sound like some fucker named loserbait if I read that correctly

>>14624029
1. She's a top level artist, she certainly doesn't need the money
2. She has never streamed before hololive, so she shouldn't particularly care about having an audience
So why would she enter hololive? Because she was fan and wanted to become friends with the holos, and this isn't new, a bunch of jp holos were the same, the difference is that nearly everyone had experience as entertainers or streamers so they actually tried unlike sana

>>14622114
You can't legally lay off people in Japan even if they're completely useless unless your company is literally on the verge of collapse. That's why the banishment room practice exists.Japanese don't want firing to be used as a management tool.

>>14623972
>Aussie concentration camps
I forgot those were a thing

>>14624151
Meanwhile there are indie vtubers that are putting in massive amounts of work everyday for the hope of getting even into Nijisanji, let alone Hololive.

>>14624151
>She has never streamed before hololive
Do your reps before you spew bullshit

>>14614543
Nijisanji is 2 blocks down

>>14624250
You say this as though it's supposed to reflect well on them. If they're doing what they're doing to grind out a golden ticket to success and fame instead of for its own sake, why should that sort of person get in?
If Cover and Anycolor announced tomorrow that they already had enough people and auditions were closed for the next five years, how many indie vtubers would close up shop?

>>14621636
Has money.

>>14624500
Nepotism.

Do your reps Anon.

>>14624500
>If they're doing what they're doing to grind out a golden ticket to success and fame instead of for its own sake
Like half of Gen X was looking for the golden ticket and they're the most hard-working, in fact why wouldn't you want that kind of person? If they're a good talent and they have the drive they're perfect, compare that to council minus bae, they have the talent but zero drive, what's the talent worth for then?

>>14624676

If your motivations stem only from the lure of overwhelming fame and fortune, then all your behavior is going to be informed by it. You're going to leave when it ebbs or you get a better opportunity elsewhere. And it will ebb - entertainment is a fickle arena where so much is out of your control. Instead of being contented, they will likely jump ship again. That's what their 'drive' would compel them to do.

>>14608388
Wtf I love mori now

>>14622417
I wouldn't get my hopes up, umiushi's base model was still used for Gura, it was just the outfit that was rigged on top of her naked model by a different rigger, all the preexisting problems of her body are still there. Until Cover themselves make an announcement sometime early next year about giving all their talents with subpar rigging a well deserved 2.0 model update, you should expect nothing. Cover is pretty much unpredictable beyond the usual shitty merchandise announcements, there was that hololive alternative thing that I'm not sure what the point of it was, and the hololive VR game announced recently, both of which have absolutely no impact on stuff like live2D models.

>>14623507
New life goal, thank you for the inspiration anon.

I'll upload KoroBark.mp3 once I succeed

>>14608388
Wait. So does this imply that Omega is actually upper management? That makes sense since she doesn't seem to directly handle EN girls.

>>14626718

>>14624676
https://youtu.be/DOT7-5fI1mg
Just because they don't work for the black branch of Hololive doesn't mean the girls lack drive.

Real talk Bae, Fauna and Mumei definitely carry the entire Gen they bring fun stuff to the table and they always shine in their own way on the other hand Sana and Kronii are essentially support or side characters... sometimes in their own streams.

>>14606272
This is bullshit, but i believe it.

Fumio Kishida and Emperor of Japan Naruhito Himself, for safe passage into the land of the rising sun for Gura, Amelia and Ina for the Myth 3D debut planned for the very near future.
You will all kneel to me once it's successful

>>14612976
woo yeah baby that's what i've been waiting for that's what it's all about

I thought Omega being a piece of a shit holding back the girls was just a rrat but the very moment he tweeted going MIA, you can tell things changed. Just the fact that Mori seems to actually be in a better mood since then and streams more.

If we wanna go full RRAT, I headcanon Omega got fired but went to some channels causing the karaoke disaster out of spite.

>>14632661
Meds

>>14632686
Anon, I am high as fuck right now from my meds already. Don't tell me to take more.

>>14632754
Maybe you'll OD

Is Omega good or bad? I don't watch Holo or chuubas consistently and just here for any drama

Yagoo needs to hire some Yakuza guys to convince Omega to leave the company and Japan if he can't just fire him.

>>14604785
Ding dong the witch is dead

>>14615335
This is true. Myth can be viewed as ransom shit like shinigami, shark girl, squid girl, bird girl, and detective girl and even their "canon lore" is not too crazy and don't have to autistically connect to each other. It's not too different from stuffs in JP like oni girl, the demon girls (rushia, towa), angel girl, etc,...
Council is just way too autistic with the lore and make them "God of X" and makes them feel separated from the rest of Hololive and debuff the shit out of them. Their design can't be simplify to some kemono girl neither.

>>14632661
Good rrat, but kareoke permissions is due to google adding tracking for copyrighted content mid stream, so it can't be dodged by doing unarchived iirc.

>>14619405
Today, I learnt that Omega is pronounced omega alpha instead of OmegaAh. Also, I thought it was spell omegae for some reason

>>14621406
you got it the other way around

>>14621364
>Asking a talent to perform for you on the spot like some side show act when they are not "on" is just poor etiquette.
Marine didnt seem to mind though.
Maybe you're just jealous?

>>14604785
What the fuck is the deal with him? Why does he have a character? For what purpose?

>>14604785
Hopefully going to a farm very far away

>>14621165
Kek, that would be really funny though. Imagine Marine awkward stutters out an ‘I’m Horny’ to a baffled Omega in the middle of the office, and he just goes: “What? What the fuck is wrong with you, I meant Ahoy.”

>>14633157

>Kirin

>Kronii...

>>14634632
I guess 3 out of 5 isn't bad. Shame about kronii and Sana though. I thought fauna is a dryad or something like that.

>>14613808
Most monstergirls are just humans with an extra feature making them basically kemonomimi. And if that feature is only visible on the lower half of the body you won't be able to see the monster part when the girl is streaming. Unless you go even further on the monster part like slime monster, (fire) elemental, hairy werewolf, cyclops etc. But that might be a turn off for a lot of people.

>>14634900
They could go deeper into the jrpg cliche lore by making the 3rd EN gen more like a party or a rebellious group. There are still some typical rpg stock characters left that haven't been used yet.
cleric/ white mage, bowman, barbarian/ amazone, ninja, thief, valkyrie or just do the hero character again but make sure to make it different enough from Noel.

all i know is that since he fucked off the streams have skyrocketed in quality; calli gives a fuck, gura going full cunny mode in her outfit reveal, mumei getting to sing candy store none of these would have happened if he had been there

>>14604785
OmegaAlph had to go to the Live2d Artists who were slacking finishing the new EN outfits and in person threaten to beat them with a tire iron.

>>14618926
Its hilarious how many people for the omega is a manager shitpost
Its easily been the best baitpost of the year surpassing miko raped pekora

>>14623648
Bae is a hard worker who likely got a recommendation from Ollie, but she’s the one who got hurt the most by her character lore. Mumei was a huge catch and she actually had interesting ideas to work with her lore to create content, but she has tech and IRL limiters, plus she was a nervous wreck for the first month, then management decided to clip her wings and demoralize her further. I’m guessing Kronii was probably impressive during auditions, but they didn’t expect her to burn out quickly. Fauna probably also gave a good audition, and they probably also wanted to fill an ASMR slot, possibly also having a Mother Nature concept in mind. With Sana they were probably expecting another Ina.
>>14632661
>>14636287
Mumei also mentioned having to do “research” for an unspecified future project, which means history streams might be back on the menu.
>>14635368
If that does go through, that would definitely be a sign of a shakeup.

>>14638083
We gonna go into the history of farming bois!!

>>14638083
i can only hope mumei can get a history stream out before he returns

He’s playing Tranny Fantasy 14. Too bad he didn’t 41% himself

Blame Omega, blame Omega
When your chuubas can't collab
And Council's numbers start to lag
Blame Omega, BLAME OMEGAAAA
And he's not a real woman anyways

>>14638305
he's playing Gender Fantasy 41

>>14618932
And the funny thing is that A-chan was made part of streams in such an organic and sweet way, from being mentioned by Sora, to getting a doodle to go along with her voice, to getting her model.
A-chan is an integral part of Sora's and Hololive journeys, Omega is any manager you can find on LinkedIn

>>14638423
is that meant to be sung as blame canada from southpark kek

>>14619405
It's made worse because this literally went nowhere. It would have been almost fine if this was for the debut of another vSinger to give Council their own Irys, but it was just a management member stroking his own ego. Omega hasn't even appeared on screen to try and be like EN's A-chan, so what was the point of this?

>>14638987
Yeah, I was thinking of something for Mori to sing.

>>14636334
And by tire iron you mean BUSSY.

>>14620987
>about how she's a dog that likes to play games.
Specifically, she's a guard dog for a bakery.
Still, that's easier to remember than the mini-essay that Irys got.

>>14619405
At this point I have to believe he's actively sabotaging Council in vengeance since Myth mogged HoloJP so hard. It's the only explaination that makes sense for this and everything we know about him

>>14623791
>Barely streams
She streamed more than any other Council member, Gura, Ina, and Ame in November, and that's even with her taking the first half of the month off.

>>14639029
I was half-expecting a Shadow of Israphel type of thing where he’d antagonize Council and EN would have to team up to defeat him, but clearly he can’t even follow through on his chuuni bullshit.
>>14639252
To be fair, half of that is her becoming an endurance streamer.

>>14638083
Bae and Mumei are definitely the gems of Council that were fucked because management is retarded. I'm glad Rrat basically dropped the whole chaos thing and is doing her own stuff, especially with Baewatch, and I do hope Owl can finally work on her projects next year. Kronii and Sana are in a similar situation where they're kinda nerfing themselves, with the former having done similar vo content that Bae did before joining Hololive and the latter being an artist that doesn't really do art streams. If EN's management really had a shakeup then it would be great if they got people that actually work out with the talents so they can use their own strengths, but this is Cover we're talking about. As for Fauna I don't have a lot to say about her since I don't care about ASMR, so I don't know if that part of her content is good or bad or if the EN side doesn't have the same interest in it like the JP side, but I like her gaming streams and interactions with the other girls and I kinda wanna see her playing Dota 2, even if that will probably be a complete disaster.

Good and i hope Cover deleted this good for nothing vtweeter account and remove his trace from existence

>>14638083
>>14638245
Mumei probably got screwed the most out of anyone but that also goes to show how good of a talent she is that she has overcome all of that and along with Fauna and Baelz has been carrying Council through a very rough couple of months. Like the impressive thing is she has an excuse to not be very productive and she still puts out consistent content for example she once ran into an issue where she NEEDED to do homework and instead of cancelling a stream she made it the stream which was one of her best performing streams.

>>14639560
Fauna is unironically the gamer of the group.

>>14639972
>Fauna is unironically the gamer of the group.
She's the pos-5 on Dota that makes all the plays, guarantees vision control and saves everyone's asses but nobody pays attention because the carry or mid are popping off and monkey brain can't understand anything other than kills.

You council nu-niggers are retarded. Council is trash hired by Omega

>>14640234
Pretty much this. She does entire streams where all she does is lab Minecraft speed running.

>>14640291
Back to your discord. Do better on your audition or try out for Nijisanji.

>>14640322
Nice cope. Council failed because Omega chose them.

>>14640359
You know this how? Explain now or I will do something horrible to you!

>>14633161

>>14640558
>>14640601
At no point has it ever been confirmed Omega is even a manager much less the head manager. Also the managers don't decide talent as far as anyone knows. I guess what I am asking is how do YOU apparently know all of this inside information anon. Out with it my patients wears thin.

>>14640670
> Also the managers don't decide talent as far as anyone knows
Honestly, it seems like there’s been a disconnect between the talent scouts and Omega/management that lies at the root of the problem.

>>14640670
>At no point has it ever been confirmed Omega is even a manager much less the head manager
Yes it has. Omega was the first manager and is credited as producer on Irys' MVs. Read threads at the very least, nigger.

>>14640893
Okay now refute the rest of it.
>Also the managers don't decide talent as far as anyone knows. I guess what I am asking is how do YOU apparently know all of this inside information anon. Out with it my patients wears thin.

>>14604785
Nice now let's wait until he gets pic related treatment

>>14640771
The talent scouts choose who they think are the best among the auditions, while the managers are the ones who work with the chosen talent and help them with their content. If the scouts thought someone would be a good addition due to a certain skill and the managers don't let the talent use said skill it's not the former's fault for choosing that person.

>>14640940
Why would the top not have final say it who gets hired? Think nigger think.

>>14641060

>>14612976
I hope this means that Kiara can finally collab with Pomu.

>>14642275
Big difference is, Critikal isn't really competition in the same way. There's probably not a lot of audience overlap with Charlie and it could be mutually beneficial. NijiEn is direct competition in the same field, and would benefit a lot more from Hololive exposure than the other way around.

>>14642067
Maybe they were right to give her shit

>>14641035
That wasn’t meant to be a knock on the talent scouts, far from it. Cover’s talent scouts know what they’re doing, but no one ever says the same for EN management.

>>14642067
Permissions are branch wide anon. Even if she doesn't play the game it is still really good for her to be asking for those games. For example even though she never played 12 minutes IRyS and Kronii both had amazing play throughs of it. Bus Simulator was also on that list and Ame and her playthrough caused a flavor of the month push with Pekora, Marine, Miko, Reina, and IRyS playing it after them.

I do wonder how omega feels getting shit on all the time and having his talents shit on the lore

>>14642568
They were. Gura is very fickle and just wants to play the latest meme games.

>>14642593
Arrogant and self righteous like the tranny he is

>>14642593
This place is the only place people actually shit on him. Reddit and twitter are just the usual sycophant squad. It'd be easy to avoid it if he wanted to.

>>14642580
No one ever says the same for Hololive's management in general. Maybe ID is fine, and Stars is basically carried by Shinove at this point, but both JP and EN have some serious issues, with EN being the in a worse place since they have way less managers so there are less chances for actually good managers.

>>14643016
nijis follow hololive accounts on twitter and constantly interact there

>>14640893
...a producer isn't the same as a manager, dude.

>>14643136
He wasn't always the producer

>>14643213
Okay... when did he become manager then since CLEARLY you have insider knowledge that we lack.

>>14643299
He started out as the only manager then j-chad and jenma showed up. They hired more for Irys and council so now he is in a producer role. Watch streams, you retards.

>>14643460
What streams was this mentioned in?

>>14634632
>>14634762
Kronii just need a minor mama related change made and she can fit right in.

>>14643654
Little bits here and there

>>14643790
You can at least try to link to streams that could be relevant to your rrat instead of outright admitting you're completely retarded.

>>14643818
Way too many. It's called connecting the dots. You probably think AO-chan, Enma, and Omega aren't the same person.

>>14643903
C'mon man you can do better than this.
