/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Lest we forget
https://youtu.be/dzbz1BPm6-s?t=1807

I went to sleep for like five hours and this is what I'm waking up to? What the actual fuck? I'm gonna feel sick.

I know Kanata won't follow Coco but I'd be the last person to judge her if she was. Cover doesn't deserve either of them.

>>4831910
>https://youtu.be/dzbz1BPm6-s
So today's result likely materialized over the last 2-3 months

>>4831910
>>4832316
>Coco won't be there when Kanata hits 1m subs

It hurts to live

>>4832270
They will be together for a long time. Even after their hololive job ends

>Kanata won't graduate
>They will continue living together
>Even after Coco graduates, Kanata can still talk about her. Maybe not as Coco but her friend or person she lives with
>Coco is her friend for life and that will never change, they're ずっとも
>Kanata says it's okay to take your time dealing with it
>But she also wants Coco's live (and remaining days) to be the best and filled with lots of fun memories

>>4832419
Coco won't even be there for Kanata's one year 3D anniversary. Or for ARK2. Or for a KanaCoco duet karaoke. Or RFA collab. Or thousand other things that should have happened but never will.

I'm dead

https://twitter.com/hikawa21/status/1402476266440122368

I hope they can at least upload a pic on twitter of their golden button awards lined up together after Kanata hits 1 million...
Damn, this is so surreal...

https://twitter.com/hikawa21/status/1402508960159068169

>>4832830
This is really a break point for me. Hololive won't be the same. Hell, with so many members already being fucking depressed who knows what's gonna happen next.

We just need to get Kanata to 1 million before July 1

>>4833047
900K might be doable but 1M is just too much in a month

Will all of this about Kanata never leaving I wonder how would the days in Hololive be with her being the last gen member to graduate

>>4833247
Didn't Gura hit 1 million in like 2 weeks?

>>4833314
Don't worry, Watame will be there for her

>>4833247
What if Cover allows for a one time return from Coco to celebrate it

>>4833314
I've got a feeling we're going to find out how that would go sooner rather than later now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G93hfrf-qas
Towa's competing with Kanata for who can get the most merch (or snacks).

I'm trying not to post too much out of respect for Kanata, but my heart will break for Coco's graduation stream when she goes all out.

>>4833419
There's zero chance of that happening. Also Coco appearing on Kanata's streams will probably spell trouble for her and Coco wouldn't want to inconvenient her but I sure hope it's not the case.

>coco is now unemplyed
>has to move to a cheaper place leaving kanata alone
>eventually they stop talking
>goes from close friends to just passing acquaintance

>>4836941
If only Coco had another monetized channel on youtube or on another site she could continue streaming on...

>>4836941
fuck off cunt, go to the sticky

Now that I think about it Kanata said she wanted to do a member stream soon, I wonder if she wants to dedicated it to talking about the situation.

>>4838689
She mentioned that she wanted to do it today if possible, so it's certain that she intended to talk about it. But she also said that she had a lot she wanted to talk about that wasn't bad things, so that's not all of it.

>>4838900
>she had a lot she wanted to talk about that wasn't bad things
She and Coco finally got married. That's why Coco didn't renew the contract. Because workplace relationships are not allowed. But now that she's gone they can reveal their engagement.

Just gonna repost this

Starting

Kanatan... Well at least she's trying to sound excited.

Kanata is pretty good at this.

>>4832761
>Kanatas one-year anniversary
that was supposed to be Dec 2020.

>>4843471
I mean one year since her 3D debut.

>>4843591
Holos don't celebrate that

Geez I've done nothing productive all day

>>4832623
As if, I'm sure Kanata will be forced to only stream when there's no way to know Coco is around, or Coco will actually have to move out.

>>4845076
She hasn't been heard once on Coco's roommate streams or vice versa, now fuck off

>>4844790
Same, it's hard to work right now. Shouldn't have woken up today.

>>4844790
Same, Think I'm gonna be like this for a few more days

>>4845076
They specifically got an apartment that would let them stream without interfering with each other you dumb cunt.

>>4839766
My favorite cover of hers. I remember her saying she wasn't sure if she could go deep enough for it, and it's still funny to me that she just went higher instead.

>>4845454
I'm talking more about her not getting to talk about her "unknown" roommate from now on.

>>4845552
Looks like Coco confirmed she'll be allowed to be mentioned by others after graduation so there's probably a chance Kanata will be able to talk about her without mentioning her by name.

AkiRushiKanaCoco revenge Itadaki Street stream confirmed.

>>4846373
Bless these dorks.

I will support Kanata no matter what but when she graduate I'll probably abandon this hobby

>>4848748
she was saying she wants to work as a vtuber at least until she becomes around 40 yo but she could move to a different company. i will still follow kanata and marine if they graduate. i dont think kanata is gonna ever stop vtubing since shes an actual hardcore idol otaku like miko

>>4848748
Yeah, I don't think I could go on watching hololive or any vtuber for that matter.

>>4849096
I don't think she was lying, but you never know what the future holds. If it weren't for a few seconds of some google analytics displayed on screen Coco might not have been graduating next month.

>>4849249
I can't imagine Kanata graduating any time soon unless the rumors of Coco starting her own company (which I doubt, as happy as it would make me) are true.

>>4849379
The rumors that she will start working as EN manager sound more plausible than this

>>4848748
I feel exactly as >>4849096 and >>4849379
I'll follow Kanata wherever she goes and I doubt she'll stop vtubing. Nobody can replace her for me.

>>4831797
Do you think Coco will lobby her projects trough Kana?

Fuck it anons, every time I hear her voice, even I find it a little annoying (since it's not a typical woman/girl voice, quite unique actually) today, there are sweat coming out my eyes. My heart are beating so loud, I hate this kind of feeling anons. This is worst than my break-up. I know that we can still simp with her roommate, but hell, it'll be never be the same again. Especially to hololive.

>>4849249
Yeah, basically its a "that's just life" situation (and too bad China wasn't removed from life instead). Grand plans are just grand plans until something comes and ruins them.
I'm pretty sure not even a few months ago, Coco had said she would never graduate. I think I remember seeing some posts about it.
I hope for tatsunoko's sake that Coco keeps her other channel active. That would help so much for them.

If some bullshit ever comes along and knocks Kanata out too, I will just pray she becomes active externally as well. I'm a bit worried about how much it would hurt though if it feels this bad when Coco is leaving (and I barely watch her, but obviously her intimate connection with Kanata amplifies it). It's now morning here and I think I got a solid 2 hours sleep and have a headache thanks to this.


>>4849628
>This is worst than my break-up
That comparison went through my mind while I was vainly attempting to sleep as well.
It made me wonder if I need to distance myself a bit, even though I don't want to. I love Kanata way too fucking much.

>>4848748
Coco wants Kanata to keep INCLINING like a motherfucker.

>>4849595
Of course, its her wife we are talking about.

>>4850213
If Kanata ever graduates I'm done with Hololive as a whole. It will only make me hurt watching them having fun without her, it'd take years for that to stop bothering me.

https://youtu.be/LaFqyXPrR3Y
Pain... nothing but pain and suffering

>>4851967
I wonder if that's why Kanata was clearing so much land besides her school.

It's not a 4 person collab if it's not a little late to start.

>>4844790
I had a fucking interview scheduled today anon ahahahahahaha
you can guess how it went...

https://youtu.be/FLhSm5eyw_0
Uno

>>4851158
Honestly I don't know how it'd be possible to keep watching Hololive, a group that simply benefits from being precisely that--a group, if your oshi graduates.
There's a disconnect between Holo graduations and basically any other type of life event outside of death. Graduation is basically death, but knowing they're still alive and can't be contacted because of the unique pseudo-anonymous vtuber state.

>>4838352
Is this sarcasm or you dont do your room mate reps anon?

>>4852978
anon your sarcasm reps...

Kanatan is trying so hard but her stuffy nose betrays her as usual. But she sounds a bit more natural than on her crane game stream. God this is gonna be a hard month...

>>4853320
Not just Kanata, I was feeling a really awkward mood at first from everybody. It's gotten much better now.

>>4852763
>>4851158
check different companies unrionically or enjoy each individual if you can have some oshis and understand japanese. im a huge fan of kanata but not of hololive. i prefer her solo streams to her collabs, same goes for marine, so honestly dont give a fuck so much about hololive. its a fucking shame that she lost her biggest partner though, but her heart is the strongest probably in the whole jp vtuber industry, she can get over any hardship and difficulty, and move on, so i dont worry about her future at all.

>>4854163
I envy you. Kanata is definitely on a separate category to hololive for me, but I still care about several holos beside her, and I've always liked the group as a whole. I'm already to deep into it to just say fuck it and follow only Kanata.

>>4854163
>im a huge fan of kanata but not of hololive
Definitely not the case for me even though I watch other companies and indies. I'm still Hololive first and I'll be devastated if Kanata ever leaves it.

>>4854163
This may sound cringe but Kanata saved me from some dark thought last year so I don't think I can ever bring myself to have anyone else as my oshi for the rest of my time as a fan of vtuber.

>>4854517
>>4854647
i do care bout holieve as a whole too. ive constantly checked nearly all holo jp members and have some favorite collab groups but i feel a bit insecure about relying only on hololive so i also watch a few vtubers in other vtuber agencies like niji jp and nori-pro. i love them too. anyway kanatas heart is the fucking strongest and undeafetable, and im sure she can be something special and fun as fuck even if shes totally solo/independent, so i dont worry about her at all.

>>4854767
not cringe really. because im basically like you. shes really like the highest rank but absolutely friendly female buddhist monk or nun for me lol like the modern version of mother theresa. while having a unique and radical sense of humor. i know she has considered getting a nurse costume. it would actually really fit her.

>>4854767
There's a lot of heimin like that and Kanata knows it. If anything, that relationship with her fans, one a bit different than Coco and the tatsunoko, might bind [Kanata] to Kanata more tightly (for better or worse).

>>4857489
Can confirm, I'm the same way as >>4854767 too. I would follow her anywhere but I love Kanata the most, she is special to me. Hololive and her unique place in it makes her special too.

>>4857489
Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm not gonna follow her wherever she go, Kanata the person is my oshi

DDidsomething sad happened on the UNO stream?

>>4858320
The stream is going fine but these gloomy atmosphere are gonna hang above the thread for the rest of the month

>>4854767
That goes for a lot of us, especially those who have hung on to animated media as a coping mechanism for living as a wage slave.

>>4858531
>check the outside of the thread
>all orange and red
I'll stay here until the fire's quelled in a couple of weeks until July 1.

Well now that the collab is done I'm gonna go to bed, I've been up since the Miitopia stream, keep the thread alive heimins

Did she just wink at the end?

https://youtu.be/30iFlACYPwU

>>4858826
She did. Looks like they finally fixed her eyelids.

>>4831910
Translation?

>>4859790
stupid dorks, stop making me smile

>>4859790
The tears...
They won't stop

>>4859790
It hurts

>>4857865
Same

Though her design is what originally made me interested in kanata because i love angel girls, she quickly became my favorite because of her talent and personality

>>4853320
Im not ready to see kanata cry...

>>4831797
Anyone else scared that Kanata will follow coco

>>4854767
It isn't cringe, anon. I had the same experience in 2020 at the beginning of the cof. While it wasn't Kanata, it was Coco who introduced me to the vtuber world and sorta saved me, so I've been crying a lot. As for PPT, she's one of the most genuine and honest of the bunch and I'm glad they support each other, I'm pretty sure Kaichu will be fine, she's super smart and with the money she earned she can start whatever business she wants, with Kanata by her side.

>>4861450
No. I'm scared other around Kanata might.

>>4861541
Same
But im most scared for Kanata since shes both my oshi and really close friends with coco

>>4861541
I honestly don't think any of them will immediately follow Coco, they all have seem to made peace of mind with the fact a few weeks ago already

If anything the announcement puts into context the unusual amount of Holos having depressive episodes and/or doing stuff like vagueposting about what they would do if they quit vtubing or dust off their roomate accounts for the past month or so.

>>4861450
I think that might not be a good move financially for her, and Coco as a friend would probably advise her against it.

>>4833324
Gura was well-established before joining hololive. Once the word's been spreaded it was a matter of time. Plus she went very viral on just by her debut stream.
Kanata just cannot be compared to that.

>>4861450
Not one bit.

>>4861450
I'm not. I think its exceedingly unlikely she would, at least not for quite a long while.
If something occurs like Coco starting a small vtuber group of her own sometime this year or next, then perhaps its not impossible that Kanata could follow her eventually, but Coco's personality too would mean the first thing Coco would do is say "Don't follow me, stay there." It wouldn't happen any time soon.
The tweet from around 3 weeks ago was almost-certainly made after Kanata knew about Coco graduating.

Of course, as we literally just saw: shit happens, and similarly there's no absolute certainty in what the future has in store for Kanata or any other Holos. I just hope its nothing but as much happiness as is reasonable. She can take my entire share too.

>>4862215
I'm sure nobody will call quits right after. But it is going to leave a mark on everyone and if anyone ever thinks about it it is going to affect their judgement. Probably already is. It's gonna be a real slow domino effect but it's going to be there.

>>4863371
I think she knew way before that but I can see her posting that because of it. Something tells me this has been on Coco's mind for a long time. Kanata's letter to Coco reads a little different if we assume she knew about it back then.

>>4863500
This isn't confirmed but since it's clear some holos knew it for some time i'm pretty sure Korone's meltdown had very much something to do with this.

>>4864194
It's sad to think about it but I think someone like Korone would absolutely have the will to just get up and leave if she so desires. She might be addicted to her audience's attention but I thought Coco would never leave her fans either yet here we are.

>>4864194
Can you spoonfeedme on Korone's meltdown?

>>4864303
If you want to go full schizo you can assume she wants to quit now but doesn't want to make Coco feel guilty.
Anyway, this isn't healthy, i'm gonna stop now.

I'm really going to miss those times when Coco just randomly associated something with Kanata in the middle of a stream and started telling some embarrassing story about her out of nowhere. That was peak teetee.

>>4864308
>made a half twitter post about something really bad happening to her, she deleted it very quickly
>next stream she said it made it want her to stop vtubing but ended up not stopping because of her fans
People assumed something happened to her mother, but it probably was this

I have to say, thanks god this thread is not like the others right now. Everything is burning and here's the only place I find with no shitstorm. Let me thank you all for it

>>4864809
>People assumed something happened to her mother, but it probably was this
She just murdered this rrat on her last stream

>>4866413
True fans in the individual threads understand what's going on, globalfags, clipniggers, dramafags and tourists have always been in only for the (you)s

>>4864714
>not going to be able to open Coco streams to any random timestamp and hear "Kanata-this" and "Kanatan-that" ever again
I hate it.

>>4863371
>>4863873
Which tweet are we talking about here?

>>4864714
>>4866892
Was just thinking about it, Coco gave a lot of info about Kanata's daily life and I'm gonna fucking miss it just like everything else Coco did. She managed to slingshot so many little details about Kanata into meme-like popularity. She really helped define what "Kanata" is every step of the way.

>>4867446
I know they have a lot of yonkisei stuff planned and they'll probably be together in a lot of collabs during this month too, but I really hope they do something just as KanaCoco too. A singing stream would be perfect since tatsunokos have always asked Coco for that.

>>4867098
139306601606679347
Add their generation number to the last position

>>4861450
No but im scared cocos antis will follow to other girls

I swear if they harrass kanata

>>4864308
Wait Korone had a meltdown?

>>4869210
Kinda sorta, it wasn't really a meltdown.

She accidentally tweeted a half-complete tweet about something very sad happening, went radio silent for a couple of days and the next stream she said that something happened that made her seriously consider graduating but decided not to because she would be extremely lonely without her fans.

>>4867607
>I really hope they do something just as KanaCoco too
I really do too. Singing stream would've been perfect. Yakuza playthrough like they did after debut too. Or RFA collab. But fuck I'll settle for anything ARK exploration, Mario Kart, Clubhouse, AC, Minecraft, anything. I want to have just a little bit of just Kanatan and Coco. I think we deserve at least one stream for old time's sake.

>>4868793
I meant to type "append" not "add"

>>4870520
I dare not open Kanata's art tag right now. I can't handle it.

>>4851967
fuck....
Coco's announcement was hard to swallow but I was nowhere near tears.
But hearing Towa like this is just too much.

>>4871794
Towa will spend this month with Kanata and Coco. Of course it'd take a graduation for her to finally decide to hold on to colleagues closest to her, dumb devil. Hope she'll learn her lesson.

I've done nothing since the announcement except fail at sleeping, calling in sick, and watching a few streams with only 1 neuron activating.

>>4872487
I hear you, done basically no work today, still can't believe this is happening.

I don't know how I'm going to handle the graduation event, if Kanata or Towa start to cry I'm going to lose it.

>>4873492
It's not even the stream itself, the weeks of last goodbye collabs are going to completely break me before that. I keep remembering things Coco did and I realize I'm gonna miss all of them.

>>4869366
Oof im glad she seems to be doing ok now

I wonder what it was, some.even speculate it had to do with coco but idk

>>4873819
I know for a fact that it wasn't directly caused by the Coco situation (if Korone is to be believed), but I'm gonna go out of my way and say that it probably put her in a really bad headspace that almost lead her to make a rash decision.

>>4864194
Add Polka and Haachama to that list too

All of these girls are going to continue vtubing for the rest of their lives. Even if they get married and have kids, they'll take breaks and do it part-time. Nothing else will match the social high, whilst also being something they can do from home on their own time.

Coco is just the first of all of these prominent Hololive vtubers to cross over to the other side. We'll see them all again in vtuber heaven.

None of these girls have even started streaming as the avatars they're going to be remembered as, Hololive is just the starting point.

I don't have the willpower to click something with that thumbnail my man.

Why are all the comments disabled on her last stream, they're available on her other current stuff

>>4883943
The same thing happened to the horror stream the other day

>>4883943
>>4885435
Better download them just in case then

Kanata 12 hour meat beating endurance screaming about Coco

I'm so proud of this girl right now, she is so strong. The reason she has been working so hard lately was because she knew it before everyone else, she wants to show Coco that she will be fine and wants to give her the greatest send off from Hololive.

She is such a great partner, I hope that they will be together for life.

>>4886238
Well, unless they get divorced they probably will be

>>4886238
My thoughts exactly. I'm happy that Kanatan is staying strong in this waking nightmare. I know for sure I'd cruble if not for the fact that she's dealing with this situation with dignity. The stuff she's preparing for Coco like the song, or that letter, the Switch or Yonkisei monhun collab, now Gen4 house in Minecraft and who knows what else, it's gonna make some fine memories. I'm at least happy this literal angel is still here and, most importantly, is there for Coco right now.

I only want to see her again now

https://twitter.com/amanekanatach/status/1402825622011875334?s=19
Let face another day together Kanatan

>>4886238
She went and intentionally streamed normally on what was an otherwise absolutely terrible day, just to show that things will be alright. She's a stronger person than I am, I'm just sitting here moping around (of course, she's known for some time, and we had no idea until the stream yesterday).
Hopefully she doesn't overdo it though if she hasn't had a good cry about it as of yet, though there were probably a few of those at least in the buildup to this with how close she is to Coco and with Coco directing her troubles mostly to Watame and Kanata.

>>4887684
I hope she streams again today, but she'll probably be a bit busier ensuring the song is finished, along with anything else she might have planned.

>>4889131
There still that mengen she promised

>>4892893
Can't look at this pic without thinking Kanata's doing her infamous grip on her with those vibrate lines on Coco

https://twitter.com/RivePaper/status/1402495321574313989?s=19

Really don't want to talk about numbers but I gotta bump the thread somehow

It's been a day already but it's not any easier to accept we're living in the nightmare timeline.

>>4887015
If Coco's leaving on her own choice then it's a great possibility that Kanata was by her side, long before she told the rest of the talents.

https://youtu.be/LYTQ9REin5g
Making Yonkisei house

>>4896539
Looks like it's gonna be together with Coco too. Kanatan retweeted a few pixel arts from early 2020 for this, cute.

has her tassel charm and necklace been shipped out yet?

>>4887015
the announcement was sudden for us, but kanata was probably the first to know
heck, coco probably consulted kanata before making up her mind- people ask their close friends/colleagues for advice when making these decisions

>>4897407
Yeah it's been shipped out since like a week or two ago, I just got mine a few days ago actually.

>>4897499
what the hell
I ordered cocos tail, pin badge and kanatas tassel together. I thought the tassel was just delayed but they havent sent me shit yet.

>>4897517
Let me guess, you ordered from Geekjack? If you ordered directly from Booth give it another week or so, but if you got it from Geekjack then I say give it about 2 months or so.

>>4897559
Yeah I ordered it from geekjack. Another two months huh? I wonder what's up with that. I was hoping for them to arrive soon so I could take a picture of the charm on the tails plug and tweet about that before Coco graduates.

>>4897598
Maybe 2 months is an exaggeration but I usually see people who ordered from Geekjack receive theirs months after the ones who bought from Booth. Sad to say that it might not make it on time...

>>4897661
It's alright I suppose. At least its funny that my buttplug parody is going to have tremendous sentimental value in the future.

>>4896539
Man...

>>4898605
It's already too hard to see stuff like this now and we have three more weeks of this to go through. It's gonna be a very exhausting month.

>>4898719
Good thing I already exhausted all my tears yesterday, now I just need to prepare myself for the 1st

>>4896539
Starting

>Started streaming 89 seconds ago
>I'm already crying
Whelp

Kontenshi!

It's strange. It hurts to hear them talk about it but the way they talk about it is a relief.

>>4899801
Yeah, I can understand that if I see things from Coco's viewpoint though, and the fact that they've both known for a long time whereas for us it came out of the blue a day ago when things were finally looking up for Kaichou after so long

All of this nostalgic stuff, fuck. Take me back.

>>4900254
I never get tired of hearing that bathroom story

>>4900314
This is breaking my heart right now...

>>4900314
Ragnarok really was the blessed time for Hololive. I think I'm going to rewatch those streams in July. Maybe I should watch everything from those days again now that it's certain ARK isn't coming back. I remember I disliked ARK back then because it was so widespread but now I realize I miss it a lot.

Anyone else feel like this is the last KanaCoco stream? Like, the last one with the two of them alone? I feel like they have already told each other to talk about as many anecdotes they have about each other beforehand, it does feel like their last one together... maybe I’m just being paranoid but still, I don’t know anymore. Bless Kanatan though, for being there for her

>>4901441
There's 20 days left, I still have hope for more KanaCoco before then.

>>4901441
I sure hope they'll go get Coco that Elytra. But even if this is the last KanaCoco-only stream (which I kinda doubt) it's definitely a good one. There are so many things I wish they'd do together.

>>4901441
It's possible, I'm sure she has a ton of collabs with everyone in the next 3 weeks. But I suspect there'll be at least one more.

>>4901441
RFA, come on Coco

>They talk about the someone in the comments saying they're gonna cry and reply to not do it yet and there's still time
>Kanata immediately sounds like her nose is stuffy again and starts forcing her voice
Jesus. Hang in there Tenshi.

>>4901768
She sounds like she’s been holding back the entire stream, Kanatan...

>>4901768
>>4901822
20 more days... support her all the way Heimins

This entire stream is such a nostalgia trip

>>4889131
This for example before debut Gen 5 was making all kinds of plans with Aloe for streams they would do, milestone celebrations, and collabs. But that isn't what happened. In Coco's own graduation announcement she said their were many things dreams that will go unfulfilled.

We can not predict the future and we want everything to work out but that is not reality. All we can do is hope for the best and look for the goods that were created by the bad things that happened.

For example I'm kind of hoping for a Kson and Delta collab. Everyone and their mom on the indies and other companies will be asking Kson for collabs. Kson needs a model update badly and there are many artist who would gladly do it.

Kanata's pretty much a ticking time bomb, there's no way she's getting through this month without cracking

>>4902052
I'm scared for the upcoming mengen

>>4902052
It'll happen in a mengen stream if it's gonna happen

>>4902052
just wait for 1st july.

>>4902052
>>4902074
>>4902086
I don't think anything major is coming before the graduation live. Don't forget this isn't news for Kanata in the slightest. If anything Kanata is very sentimental and today was a day full of remembering the good old days. Like you could hear her voice wavering right now during the ending but I believe that the real floodgate opening won't happen until much later. I'm at least glad that they think about the future in a positive way too because for them as people not much is going to change. When the change isn't obvious like that it's a slow poison. Or maybe that's what I'd like to believe because hearing Kanata cry for real will crush me and I'm not ready for this.

Fuck, every stream with KanaCoco is going to be a mix of warm feelings and tears for me from now on.

>>4902052
I don't know. Kanata is not the type to crack in front of an audience. It's happened a few times, but she'll probably do all the crying by herself and hold her shit together to the end. Perhaps the graduation concert breaks her though, since she's particularly sensitive to music.

https://twitter.com/oshioshio_info/status/1402943961749020675

>>4904343
I can't believe this is soon be nothing but memories. I hope people continue drawing Kanata with Coco for a long long time.

>>4902052
kanata is used to being isolated. she doesnt have any fucking fragility of that kind. she is saddened by it for sure but is just much more supportive. so she definitely dedicates herself to supporting coco and her future.

>>4845076
>Coco will actually have to move out.
Cover is disgusting

>>4904665
No she's not. Stop spreading stupid narratives.

I can't handle this at all without tunnel-visioning on Kanata as a pillar of stability. I'm going to just simply die if she cries.

Looks like Coco is confirming what Kanatan said about them staying together.

>>4907132
Honestly, watching that stream had put me at peace with the graduation, I fucking hate it but I'll respect what Coco want

>>4907251
She made it easy to read between the lines, repeating some points over and over again. But she's made her case. It was really hard to watch it but I needed it, I understand her position and it sucks but it is better that way simply because it could have become much, much worse over time. I'm just happy her guardian angel will be there to watch over her. Their story won't end there. I will be waiting for Coco's return even if it's going to take years.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmyCZIaW20Y
y-yay...

Jokes aside, I really think this wouldn't work very well.

>>4907251
I wonder if I should watch it, but I don't wanna give Cover another cent outside of my existing memberships.. .

>>4907578
Well... I mean... It's honoring her legacy I guess...

>>4907578
Unless Coco is sitting right next to her when she does it or makes up some script for her, it's going to be a disaster...

>>4907578
Well she'll only does it occasionally, instead of weekly, and if she has Coco translate and even pick out the memes for her it should be entertaining enough. I dont know how she'd do if she tried it with guests that she doesnt know really well though. No way should could have carried Cali like coco did.

>>4908458
Kanatan has become much better at that. I honestly think she'd be able to handle any guest just fine. It would probably still be shit though. I mean, reddit meme review was always shit to begin with, but with Coco it was at least her own thing and it made sense for the western dragon to bring western memes to hololive. Also, I don't think reddit will be half as productive for Kanata as it was for Coco.

>>4904343

https://twitter.com/amanekanatach/status/1403011568799916035
It's going to be postponed forever, isn't it?

>>4908728
Is she talking about the song with Okayu or the yonkisei song?

>>4908814
The song with Okayu.

>>4908637
Oh she should be completely fine with any of the JP girls. But as for EN/ID, she has terrible English, it will be cute to see her try to collab with the them (who can't into JP) to introduce some memes but it will be awkward and maybe a disaster, still I kinda want to see her actually collab with some of them

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyfxLyOv1M4
She's probably not moving out, maybe

>>4908874
What if in this case she'll invite ID/EN girls so they react to the memes and explain it to her instead? I mean it'd be pure chaos so... Perfect? And just regular JP-reviews would be just cute collabs of them laughing at stupid reddit pics.

>>4909584
Instead of watching clips you should have seen today's stream.

>>4909584
Coco said on her members only she is not moving out

>>4909654
You don't even have to watch her mengen to know that because they talked about it during her minecraft collab.

https://twitter.com/amanekanatach/status/1403022108846804993?s=19
It's Gakki birthday

>>4904343
I was doing fine until this.

Man, this really took the wind out of my sails for the whole damn day.
fuck

In hindsight it was so obvious, but fuck

>>4909817
He said he was going to go on a break, but looks like he just needed to draw KanaCoco to keep going. That expression on Kanata's face is beautiful.

I wish this was a dream, wake up after just to realize yonkiseki debuted a few days ago

>>4909654
And that she wants to build a house to live in with her in the future (like the originally planned Holohouse)

I heard that antis on chinese message boards are considering targetting kanata because shes cocos best friend and haachama next now that coco will.leave

Is this true?

>>4911525
I hope not, do they want Coco to kill herself or something?

>>4911601
I wouldnt be surprised if some of those commies actually do want that

>>4911449
That was kind of said as a joke, but yeah, she plans to live with Kanata for the foreseeable future.

>>4911525
Who fucking know? I don't go to that kind of place

>>4911525
If they try it I'm breaking out the bug-stomping boots

>>4911525
If they ever try shit's not going to be the same as with Coco

>>4911525
kanata because shes cocos best friend and haachama because of the taiwan incident?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeEXX3zi1oE
Will the pain ever go away?

>>4914186
Stop doing this to me, Amanekantach

>>4913723
Literal bugs on a power trip. Youtube's new security should spray them away, live chat-wise.

>>4914186

>>4914186
I just really hope they're able to iron out some very specific but lenient rules for Coco appearing in the background of Kanata's streams, or even more involved than just the background (though I have no expectation at all for the latter, that's just pure fantasy).
Obviously, the end of her channel will also mark the end of videos with Coco's visual, but I hope C-chan can appear on occasion.

>>4914186
Those videos where she uses her 3D model from home always have such janky movement. I wonder if that's why Kanata still hasn't used it to stream.

>>4915198
I doubt Coco will be able to appear even as a voice but I am absolutely sure she's gonna help Kanata with things off-stream. And who knows, maybe a strangely handsome voice will be heard behind the camera on not-Coco's streams
I like how they joked about Coco making Minecraft noises in the background to blend in, she is pretty good at them.

Kanata always struck me as a inverse of Coco, in the sense that Coco always seemed tough on the outside but soft on the inside while Kanata seemed soft on the outside but unexpectedly tough on the inside. It's reassuring to know that Kanata is gonna be there for Coco after all this.

>>4915407
Even if she pursues a management or behind the scenes role at Cover or some other company I can't see her doing any public facing role. Harassment spilling over to the other girls was definitely a factor in her decision, and even a cameo appearance might get the bugs going again.

>>4915843
I'm not sure they'll ever actually go away.

>>4915843
No, definitely not public, but it doesn't mean she can't help Kanata and others with ideas and organization. Coco will definitely keep in touch with holos, they will visit the Holohouse, they'll discuss Hololive. I really doubt Coco will drop out of this life easily. I firmly believe she loves Hololive. Also, the harassment won't ever stop now even without Coco.

>>4911601
yup

>>4915843
I don't think the harassment is even the main issue if she was publicly a manager. The fans would never ever shut the fuck up about her

>>4849249
This is still fucking with me. A few seconds of looking at a google stats page has changed vtubing history

I'm so glad they confirmed that they're still going to be living together. I'd be twice as devastated otherwise. Probably 10 times as devastated if Kanatan wasn't such an angel and didn't have those nerves of steel. I saw so many people saying how that short zatsudan she made after Coco's announcement helped them feel better, and it was the same for me. It's no wonder Marine calls her supadari.

>>4917017
Well, the problem is that there's a country filled with nothing but mentally ill assholes and the world keeps tolerating their BS because they have money and cheap labor.

>>4917017
Some kind of blow up was almost inevitable with how the Chinese audience gets, and they already hated Coco so she was a likely target. Not to say this is the only way things could've happened, but things had been building up to something similar for a long time.

>>4918388
Kanatan really is an angel. She's strong when it's needed the most and healing when there's nobody else to turn to. She knows all the right words and even though you know she's wavering she's keeping it together and tries to find something positive about all this. I know I'll be rewatching yesterday collab in the future just to hear their stories again. Most importantly it's a relief that Coco is in such gentle caring hands in her darkest hour, with the grip powerful enough to keep her close. I feel like some tatsunoko will turn to her for comfort too and she'll be there to ease the pain.

>>4918711
I've always wondered why i keep being surprised and relieved by Kanata being so strong every single time when it's always been the norm.
I really can't figure it out, i know she's strong, she's proven it countless times, and yet...
The only thing i can come up with is her design, but it feels like such a shallow reason that i can't accept it.

>>4918957
I can only speak from my own early experience with Kanata from back in the day but my guess it's because she seems very timid and soft and you expect her to be soft on the inside too. She's pushed around because that's her lame character, she gets into ridiculous and sad situations and tells lonely stories. For me that gap was one of the reasons I liked her initially, her collab with Pekora was one my first exposures to her and I was surprised how different her personality can be from her fluffy angelic outlook. And the best thing about her is that she is a tender fluffy angel, it's just she's much more than just that.

God dammit, i need more of this, it's positive and gives me a warm feeling, i've seen so much depressing fanart the last days...

KanaCoco ARK collabs were a blessing, sudden and planned all the same. I know we probably won't see one more for old times sake but I really miss them.

Cover has no control over the holo house, coco specifically has the house on a lease.

I just realized how bittersweet Gen4 song is going to be. Especially because it's Kanata who's making it. And you know they're gonna perform it on the graduation Live. God damn it. And then there's gonna be Kanata's own song... I don't know why but I immediately remember Rice Shower's song when I think about it

>>4900314
My heart

>>4926839
Kanarice... my hero.

>>4926839
>part of Coco's dream at Hololive when she really started having fun with singing was to do a cover and original song
Holofes 2 technically covered the first part though I imagined she meant a professionally made MV like the other girls put out. Kanata seems to want to fulfill the second part of the dream before she goes. Truly angel material right there.

>>4917017
Fucking communists need to accept that taiwan exists

>>4935359
Oh yes, Taipei exists, it's a beautiful part of China.

I wish to hope that Kanata's 1M celebration stream could happen with Coco still on board. There's still more than two weeks to go.

>>4940014
You know I really wouldn't put it past Oshio to be this sentimental.

kanatan is so cute

Brace for mengen

https://youtu.be/MbFTdc_ovM0
Mengen

I wonder if they're going to finish the five of them by themselves or if other yonkisei are also going to help out with that.

>>4943137
Not sure about the pixel art but I hope everyone will join in on the actual Gen4 house construction. Would be a great opportunity to collab as a gen again.

>>4943315
Pretty sure the house is meant to be a 4th gen collab to begin with.

>>4933977
.....fuck

>>4942731

Sex...

Welp, there's no chance the song won't end up being soul-crushing

>>4946403
this is going to be hard

>>4849249
kanata isnt the type of person that always has to stick to sjwtube. shes so japanese to the core. if she faced some chink shit shed just change her main platform. i dont have any special sentiment about hololive. hololive is probably the best agency for her, but she can vtube on other jp platforms like twicas, nico.

reminder she leaked that youtube censored holos swimsuit 3d models and suggested that the management have streams on nico, in jumpking streams.

>>4946477
>i dont have any special sentiment about hololive
Kanata does though. She's as much a holo fan as she is a holo.

>>4946403
The Hololive counterpart to this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMJPZ-mu-Ts

>>4946477
It's not up to her. You know she's a part of a corporation right?
> i dont have any special sentiment about hololive
She does. It's going to take some apocalyptic event for her to leave.

This conversation went on weird tangents kusa

And we're back to food. I love this tenshi so much.

>>4946672
>>4946685
Just another regular mengen

cute shock-cough when she read the price

>>4946707
Just what I needed today, to be honest.

>>4946746
Would've been perfect clip material if it wasn't mengen. So cute.

>>4946539
>>4946600

im talking about what if. if she had to leave hololive, she would still vtube and not bend the knee to any fucking thing.

from what ive heard so far, coco was needlessly so upset she had to judge everything so early due to lack of knowledge of the dark side of the modern internet, like cancel culture, typical chink locust plague like reviewbombing on steam, and support from covers management.

The first thing I fully understand from one of her streams is her Hagen-Dasz rant in her member stream.
And for this is learn Japanese...

>>4946996
Same and it was worth it.

>>4946996
THEかなたへようこそ

Looks like Genesis 2 server is finally seeing some use. Someone get Kanata there too. She'll regret not playing it.

>Been talking about food for almost 20 minutes
The world keep turning but Kanatan will never change

>>4947256
I had to walk away for ten minutes and first thing I hear coming back is her panicking about crocks.

That change of tone when she talks about Coco pierces straight through the heart

Would be cool if yonkisei celebrate Coco birthday together

>>4947701
They wanted to buy a gift together for her...

the rings...

>mada
>mada
>mada
She's probably juggling so many plans right now. She better not overwork herself before the Live.

Hagen-Dasz...

>>4948652
Why can't I just be happy knowing this won't change and instead remember that we won't hear anything about it

What was that about Oshio?

>>4948652
>that horn-in-halo action
l-lewd

ぎゅぎゅ

>>4948968
She's gonna draw for a book Oshiomama is working on, something like that Gen 4 artbook Oshiomama made before

>>4948899
>we won't hear anything about it
Kanata said that she wants to continue talking about Coco, so I'm sure that we'll still get to hear something from time to time, even if not as often. That said, Coco brings up stories about them much more often than Kanata, so that's a pretty big loss.

>this month I want to remain positive, but next month I might talk about things like "actually this and that was going through my mind" so be warned
kanatan...

>>4949406
>Coco brings up stories about them much more often than Kanata
That's what I meant, she gave a lot of little details about their life together and enabled so much back and forth between them, and I will never forget the way she says "Kanatan". Nobody had the warmth Coco did when simply calling Kanata's name.

>>4947623
She's talking about her wife, why wouldn't she be sad?

>>4949495
I think everyone already noticed, she's in power-through mode right now, I think Watame also is trying to make the best of this month. It's important to not only remain positive but let others be positive too, everyone is looking for comfort right now. Kanatan is really strong to carry all of this on her shoulders while she's the one who needs support the most next to Coco.

>>4933977
I wonder if Kanata will have something added to her new design in the future like the ribbon or a small necklace hidden somewhere.>>4935359

>>4949495
Well, it's to be expected I think.

Right now Coco is still Coco.
Next month Coco will no longer be a Hololive member and never be able to stand beside (Kanata, the character) again.

>>4949602
I'm heartbroken and I can't even imagine what Kanata is feeling. Noticing glimpses of the cracks in her iron will is scary.

>>4949700
Do you think we'll ever hear Kanata on k-on's streams? Purely out of frame of course. Like them talking about mundane shit on discord or playing with voice chat. Would you approve of that if it was allowed?

>>4949824
So far I they've kept it completely separate, I don't really see a reason for it to change. After Coco graduates circumstances will be different so maybe, I guess, but I wouldn't bet on it. If that's what they want to do I would fully support it, sure, but I don't really have an opinion about it besides I just hope they do whatever they want to do. Though the idea of a Kanata roommate face reveal is kind of weird, not gonna lie.

>>4949943
Kanata roommate never reveal her face?

>>4949824
I'm not really expecting it but I'd be very happy to see it. I'm not really a Coco fan per-se, but I cherish Kanata and Coco as a pair and I'd embrace any situation where chatter between (Coco) and (Kanata) continues even if its one a bit disjointed from the previous ones.

I have doubts that Kanata will do that though because of her explicit binding to Hololive and the unrestrained comment about her sheer dedication that appeared a few weeks ago.
But maybe. There was also the other comment that might give a hint as to what could happen, but I don't want to get too optimistic over something with such a vague potential.

https://twitter.com/amanekanatach/status/1403397954539462658
Bless this angel.

>>4950171
I love her so much.

And at least its natural that every heimin, and probably a lot of tatsunoko as well, will be right there to catch her if she stumbles in July.

>>4950088
She tweeted it once, but she deleted it before debuting in holo and it has never surfaced since. There's an image of that tweet that was going around, but it's been proven to be fake already.

>>4950226
I wouldn't complain one bit if she took a couple of weeks off to pick herself back up. It would be extremely sad and lonely, but compared to what she's been through it's nothing.

>>4950226
I hope she realizes that she can count on it. When the time comes we will all be there for her just like she's here for us right now.
>>4950317
I don't think she's going to take more than a few days but I'll approve of whatever she needs, however much time she wants to take off.

Choose
>>4933977
>>4949827

>>4950250
There's actually been like 4 different random women at least that someone has claimed is her roommate at some point. It's possible that one of them is actually her, but there's like 2 confirmed fakes so nobody trusts any of them. If you ever become a vtuber yourself and want to preserve your identity, I think it would be a good strategy to do that but on purpose. Just delete everything then upload some fake pics to confuse everyone.

>>4950975
This I guess>>4949827

When Coco said Towa was the biggest crybaby about her announcment, and now watching this vid....it hurts.

I love this gorilla so much.
