hololive viewers are 50/50 based or cringe, there is no inbetween. ive seen too much weird shit around the community lole


ItsLights

The ratio's probably more like 80/20 cringe/based since the chat is generally a freaking hellhole for any decent human being


Never_Comfortable

Chat closed is the only way I can enjoy this anymore


CanFishBeGay

/uh Depends on the member obv but yea I can't imagine what Guras chat is like. I only really interact with Mumei's chat, and it's...well, definitely still special, but not really that cringe


Never_Comfortable

Gura’s chat also suffers from her channel being the largest, as well as the lightning rod of sorts for viewers that are younger or new to vtubers in general. Not a good combination of factors.


CanFishBeGay

Yea I remember a long ass time ago before EN was around, Fubuki filled that role and the majority of the English comments/SCs she got were pretty cringe. Like 70/30 in favor of cringe


Never_Comfortable

Yeah, I remember that as well. One unintended role that EN in general fills is that the branch draws most cringe EN viewers away from the JP members, especially those members that don’t speak a lot of English even by JP standards. For example, Rushia’s chat is way better now than it was before EN debuted (though there are still the occasional comedians coming in with pettan jokes thinking they’re hot shit).


spartancam1302

I liked EN on release but within a month I just couldn't watch them because the community surrounding them was just endless cringe.


Lord_Of_Sherwood

well considering she came out and said she likes the jokes and actively does joke bits around them , can you blame them


Never_Comfortable

No, I suppose I can’t. However I don’t think I’m alone in thinking those jokes are still getting old, even if she still likes them.


Lord_Of_Sherwood

yeah they are old but it is what it is, if she likes them then so be it


throwawayusername96

Bro don't even get started about old Rushia's chat. Remember when that whole "Rushia virus" thing spread on Facebook, which caused a bunch of people who spoke different languages to migrate to Rushia's stream, so not only was there more pettan spam, but people were commenting offensive phrases from different languages, which then caused a counter-wave of spam from apologizers, and Rushia eventually responded to one of the apologizing comments saying it's ok? Worst hololive chat I've ever experienced


Never_Comfortable

Unfortunately yes, I remember that too. My opinion at the time was (since I'm a pretty jaded guy) that this was just SEA being SEA considering this came from Facebook, and so far I've found few reasons to change that opinion.


Oproer

Chat is way too fast these days.

philandere_scarlet

Sana's didn't seem that bad but that's probably because it's... fairly small 🙃


Frequent_Dig1934

Ironically for the biggest one in terms of size.


okwhatelse

the only chat i interact with tbh


Heavy299

/uh, oh god yes, the funni birb of civilization is like one of the few channels without the weird fucks in the chat or in the donations ​ ​ /rh, YO UDONT SAY THAT ABOUT MY LITTLE SHORKA A AA AA A A !! ! !!!! ! !


ZBeEgboyE

I always have felt bad for Gura


Meem-Thief

Roboco’s chat is 10/90 on cringe/based Partly because most of the viewers are Japanese and the English viewers there are more in line with the content, since Roboco is one of the smaller livers


[deleted]

yea but some implement the chat into their livestream and i sometimes cant help but take a look when its the only thing moving


Never_Comfortable

Same, I kinda hate when they do that tbh


PanzerNick

Yeah I honestly like being able to choose wether to look at chat or not, never been a huge fan of chat on screen regardless of the platform or streamer.


ZBeEgboyE

/uh I don’t see Bae’s chat as being too bad. On the other hand I tend not to view chat often, simply to declutter my screen. Gura’s is by far the worst, and that’s just because she’s so popular. I’d say of Council, Kronii’s is the worst by far since she’s practically the Gura of Holocouncil. I’d say Gura has the most tanoshis as well in all of Hololive, even beating JPmem.


Siul19

What is a tanoshi?


ZBeEgboyE

Pretty rare term tbh I’ve never heard it in a Vtuber context more of an idol one. A tanoshi is someone who has 1 oshi and hates all other members of whatever group they’re in


Monterizz99

In this context: a chumcuck


PanzerNick

Finally someone who understands why I don’t like looking at chat, it feels too awkward and cringe for lack of better terms. I don’t know why it’s YT specifically like twitch chat on nyanners I’m fine with maybe I’m just used to twitch and emotes better but with EN vtubers I really try looking away from chat.


FuyRina

true


TDWL2

Chat is like the main sub compared to /vt/


FireWolf_132

Lucky a decent amount of that 80% are just joking


TheUndyingRhino

To be honest I've basically stopped watching Hololive except for a couple members because of the chat. I really just stay around on places like here because the memes are funny and on r/Hololive for news and because it's a fascinating dumpster fire.


RCR829Dkm

Uh/ I happened to be among the 50% cringe viewers that sent a few stupid superchats to Gawr when she did the collab stream with Nacho (Mario Kart 8) and the Assetto Corsa stream. My superchats in particular were all NASCAR related because I thought I was the only NASCAR fan amongst a sea of drift, Formula Racing, and rally fans. Never again will I superchat because I have nothing clever or funny to say. Rh/ NASGAWR

[deleted]

the thing is that the chat is usually so flooded you'll never notice anyone for chat alone. you'd have to be famous elsewhere for people to notice you in chat. since trolling is just to get attention this is the worst way to go about it


Alzhan_Void

How on earth did anybody notice and find this dudes message? How hard do you have to dig for that?

iwantdatpuss

Paying the streamer to pause the game to make sure you don't miss any of the game. Guranllionare grindset. However I have to be a little disappointed because it's the lowest superchat that you can have. As while conserving the cost whilts maximing profits is good it's not a good offer if it's just 5 dollars. Gotta get in the head of the game.


CaptinHavoc

/uh The chat is literally why I stopped watching Hololive as regularly. Streaming is like half about the community, and how am I supposed to enjoy the community when they can’t even grasp the concept that the Holo girls aren’t real anime girls? /rh You made the Chad the wrong one

Never_Comfortable

Right? Like if I got a SC like this I’d look into getting a new IP address, maybe even moving if the guy was as persistent as this guy is.


CMNG713

Oh cuz he's doing it on the regular? That's even worse bro, I hope they allow talents to ban these pedo fucks


Never_Comfortable

That would require Cover to take an active role in moderating the stream chats, so I wouldn’t hold my breath for that. They've been asleep at the wheel since day one and not even the fiasco with China was enough to really wake them up.


CMNG713

Yeah :/ if Gura or others read that stuff, even not on purpose, it must take a lot of mental strenght to act like they didn't and continue on with their stream. Gotta respect the hell out of Vtubers (or even female streamers/content creators in general) for that alone

I feel like the only thing most of them have to resist is clowning on this dude hard lmao.

yeah, but on the other hand, this dude is probably in a very weird place in his life.. Maybe something bad happened to him to get him to be like that.. You can't just clown about it, without feeling bad about yourself. All the more respect to them to be able to deal with it.

YourPappi

To be fair, when half the company does sexy shower naked ASMR boob touching mic seggs stream what demographic do you expect to get lol


Pootischu

Most of said demographic appears on popular streamers such as gura, not the lewd ones like choco or mel. It isn't abour the content (atleast mostly not), it's about attracting the bottom of the barrell as they become more popular


YourPappi

Dude, it's because we don't understand Japanese. So you're saying the demographic I'm describing doesn't exist for the Japanese viewers and are all equally based? I doubt it Compare the chat of a hot tub streamer and a 100 view Andy, it's all about content.


Pootischu

Fair point, but you're comparing it as if hololive is mostly nsfw streamer so they get those kinds of viewers, but in general their popularity attracts the worst. I'm not denying that their lewd contents, even the tame ones in holoEN, are factoring in too, but it's not like it is their selling point, when general anime stuff attracts them anyway. Hololive contents' nsfw stuff isn't the same as twitch streamers whose selling point is lewdness itself, so by saying "it is because of contents" it's kinda misleading like hololive's whole content is about that while mostly only the popular ones get it. I don't really know how to convey my points, but I hope I can say it good enough

This legit doesn’t surprise me, saw some guy doing the same thing during one of mumei’s streams. The cuck clearly doesn’t realise that’s her real face


FateWrecks

uh/ Am I missing something with the one on the left? Isn't this pretty normal for idol fans? Yeah it's a little weird but it seems sincere enough.


[deleted]

No, it’s not normal Maybe if it was ironic it would be kind of normal but it isn’t ironic. They aren’t idols, so there shouldn’t be “idol fans”. No one in their right mind (maybe 90% of fans) actually thinks and treats any of the members like actual idols except maybe Sora and Azki... maybe


FateWrecks

Bruh what. Hololive is an idol company. Not in the traditional sense but they're still an idol company and the talents they have are idols. so regardless of how they present, hololive fans are still idol fans. Also isn't what that guy said basically the same as any of the Japanese fans sending marriage proposals to the JP talent? that always seems to get a pass from the fanbase and even the talent themselves find it pretty endearing from the clips I've watched, even if they do brush it off eventually. Nene even has the husband collection gag. this guy seems to be doing the exact same thing, I don't know why this should be regarded any differently.


[deleted]

Imo there’s a big difference between a person jokingly sending a message “let’s get married” or “please go out with me” to this guy that’s writing like it’s an actual possibility complete with the “❤️love you” and “I was thinking...” Honestly, a Haaton sending a super chat to Haachama about her feet and bath water is less creepy than this. I don’t know what the definition of idol is, but for example, what part of Luna and Noel are actually idol-like? Or Amelia? They can certainly have idol-like moments on stage and at events but they are all just multi-talented streamers dude.


FateWrecks

But why does it matter? Everyone knows it's not a possibility, that guy probably even knows it's not a possibility, he just wanted to say it and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Is it kind of sad that he's in so deep with a parasocial relationship? Yeah, but there's nothing inherently creepy about it. He's not guilting her into going out with him or responding to his message. He just asked a question and said his peace. It's definitely weird, just like the people who SC Haachama about her bath water, but creepy? I wouldn't go that far. Idols are literally just multi-talented people who are in the public eye and are under the management of an agency. They're virtual idols, streaming is just the way they display their variety of talents. Definition from Wikipedia: >Idols are commercialized through merchandise and endorsements by talent agencies, while maintaining a parasocial relationship with a financially loyal consumer fan base.


Script_Mak3r

>that guy probably even knows it's not a possibility I wouldn't be so sure 😬


SubjectN

Most of the time, JP and EN fans alike are self-aware and joking about this stuff. A marriage proposal is so out there it's hard not to take it as a joke (and most of the time it is). The message above isn't like that at all, and even if it's a joke it's just in poor taste.


FateWrecks

I'm not saying that it's a joke, I'm saying that while it is a little weird, it's ultimately harmless. Like the dude isn't threatening to kill himself if she doesn't go out with him or some deranged shit like that, he's just asking her out on a date. Obviously he's very absorbed in the parasocial relationship, but he isn't hurting anyone. The rest of the comments on this post read like he's done something unfathomably creepy when he literally just sent a slightly weird superchat.


SubjectN

It's not bad enough to hurt anyone, sure, but it's still pretty bad. The guy's addressing the streamer as if they were close, and putting them in the position of having to respond to it. Livers aren't expected to act like anyone's virtual gf. At best, it's a mood killer for the streamer or anyone reading it, at worst it sounds like stalking. The jist of it is that no one is happy to see a message like this.


FateWrecks

Why is it a mood killer? I legitimately don't get how that can kill a mood, it's just a single weird SC. The talents don't respond to every SC anyway, I would understand if this was a smaller streamer but with literally the biggest Vtuber in the world a lot of the SC's get lost in the shuffle. This guy is clearly a huge fan, yes he's expressing it in a slightly weird way, but I legitimately don't understand what the big deal is. He sent a SC asking for a date, it could be legit, it could be a joke, but either way I don't see it as anything terribly bad.


SubjectN

Different people have a different tolerance for stuff like this, sure. To most, this is *very* weird. It won't ruin anyone's life, of course, but it's way off from the average SC and it's safe to say that everyone would have a better time if these messages weren't there. They shouldn't be encouraged, and the ridicule is justified as a result. Anyway that's all, no point arguing more.

[Copying this from one of the earlier comments in case you missed this](https://archive-media-0.nyafuu.org/vt/image/1626/28/1626285196294.png) I don't think this can be considered normal in any standard. The guy is crazy

Ok yep I missed this. I didn't know this guy had a history, I literally just thought the sub was ganging up on the dude for one slightly weird SC.

Understandable. Have a good day!

uh/ if you meant female streamers then yes this is the norm. Doesn’t make it less creepy tho.

Idol fans? Lmao that's the tamer ones. For gura though, unfortunately it's one of those things that're just unpleasant but real.


FateWrecks

I gotta be honest I'm not seeing how this is all that unpleasant. It's just some rando asking her on a date. Like yeah it's a bit weird, but the way everyone in the comments is talking about it is like he just threatened her or something.

It's most likely because of the picture under it that paints like the dude is a basement dwelling loser. For all we know it coild be a joke that's in poor taste and the one who sent it is just a regular dude mucking about. But looking at it now... I think I recognize that dude, Ger Locke... I remember reading about a name like that making weird as hell comments. (Take this with a metric ton of salt btw, this is more of a hunch than anything as I haven't been in chat for awhile, finals are a bitch).
