no wonder it's censored, they're probably coming up with another idea because it sounds retarded when spoken in english

>The kanji is pronounced "Hoozuki" and written with kanjis for demon and light fitting her setting
If you're gonna be a schizo, at least learn Japanese.
Hozuki is a plant.

>>18817483
You learn Japanese first. It's also a name. There is in fact another vtuber with the same surname: Hoozuki Warabe.

>>18817143
Interesting information anon. What led you to start investigating?

>>18817615
When did I say it wasn't?

i kinda want to send a aka saying:
"is it hozuki or hoozuki?how do we pronounce your last name?"

>>18817143
fake and gay

>>18817483
Nothing is stopping someone from using irregular kanji readings for names. It's why kirakira names are a thing.

>>18817884
Do it faggot

>>18817143
The name means "demon light" which is actually kinda cool and fitting for Irys' chuuni as fuck nature. It just sounds goofy..

>>18817884
I know you're memeing but it's pronounced Hozuki (with a long o), not Huzuki

A misguided notion that EN fans find the lore genuinely interesting

Hello new Irystocrats, enjoy your stay.

>>18817251
Blame Omegay
In the end Mumei is an owl, Baelz is a rrat, Ina is a tako and Kronii is the big tit clock woman. No one cares about the autismo lore. I'd say the one that cares the most about it is IRyS since she always mentions she's a "good nephilim"

>>18818572
>A misguided notion that EN fans find the lore genuinely interesting
You must know, about a legend called Haachama perhaps?
She actually made it very interesting. Not even a holofag but it actually made appreciate Ame's lore as well and it led to Ame Verse

>>18817143
I doubt irys herself even knows about this and now people are going to be superchatting her saying hello HOOZUKI IRYS LOLOLOL and she's going to be like wtf who is that

>>18817483
Learn kanji.

>>18818727
Unless it shows up in Reddit or something I really doubt something like that happens

>>18819174
There are faggots from her fancord lurking here, if they didn't know already, they do now.

>>18819174
How new? 4chan is reddit

>>18818675
You and omegatranny have the same misconception, people enjoy it when a chuuba starts doing some loreshit as they go along, taking some ideas from chat and stuff that happens to them. They don't really care that much about detailed pre-debut lore some random unkown fagggot wrote, they are 2 different things with 2 different appeals.

>>18818675
>>18819423
There are definitely people that enjoy lore, not me though. I don't exactly dislike it but I don't like when it's forced/pushed either. I just appreciate IRyS for who she is.

>>18817143
So, as it turns out.

You all should write it as Houzuki. It's closer to how it actually sounds and doesn't sound dumb.

Literally in the post he's replying to, you fucking sperg

>>18820994
You gonna fucking sperg out how I say potato too?

>>18820585
Nene confirmed to hate Irys.

>>18820585
My translator has ground cherry or chinese lantern.

>>18821105
We're not talking about potatoes here.
You open any translator, you put 鬼灯 there, you press the speker icon and you'll hear "Houzuki"(How-zoo-key). Not Hoozuki(Hugh-zaki).
English is retarded anyway, disregard my post.

>>18818572
That PV showed that they could do cool things with the characters their models are based around. Just keep it nice and light with some influences from the streamer being part of the personality (more so for non fantastical beings like Matsuri). Thats all they had to do to make things catch on, not write a whole essay.

Are birthday merch sales unlimited preorder with a cutoff date or do they actually have a locked-in stock? I'm going off-grid for a month and don't want to get wrecked.

>>18824258
Some holos have limited editions but for IRyS it should be unlimited preorders with a cutoff date.

Sorry to disappoint you guys but the real reason her last name wasn't released is because she changed it to my last name when we got married.

All the vsingers in hololive only have one name, newfriend

>>18829680
With 3 uppercase letters and one lowercase letter.

AZKi
IRyS

>>18818675
Ah yes, Ame's lore. The lore that is just Rick and Morty lore, but with the word Ame entered into it. How original and exciting.

>>18829680

Lore shit is popular in other media, and I have no doubt it would be popular in vtubers too. The only problem is HoloEN lore is done so poorly. If it was actually well people would care.

>>18817318
He's nothing more than a public relations brand manager, wasn't brought on until after IRyS was hired, and most importantly is so bad at his job that his twitter is not being run by multiple people in the HoloEN office.

>>18818572
You're the outsider bro. Most of their whales eat this shit up.

>>18818636
He is out of touch with the fan base. The talents sell cute, so their backstory should reflect that. Even if he wanted super detailed lore, something on the cute side, like council being a bunch of animals wondering what humans were up to would have worked better.

>>18824407
>>18824615
I don’t get it

>>18820585
鬼灯 roughly means Oni-Lamp in kanji, so its chuuni shit ofc, often used for anime. Hoozuki Warabe is one of the popular new jp vtubers who joins noripro, is one of Marines close friends, and has an avatar made by Rushias dad. though shes far from a chuuni vtuber, is a very soft obaachan/grandma vtuber.

i still don´t understand what the hell is IRyS supossed to be, why she is not part of the 1st or 2nd gen
she is just in the limbo

>>18817251
Its some chuuni op lore shit. The type of character that the annoying kid on the playground would conjure up when youre playfighting. You know, the type of kid that would say, "Ha! My weapon can... Uh... Defeat 1 million enemies! That means your weapon is weak! *Proceeds to cry like a bitch when he got hit* B-But my weapon is stronger waaaaaah!!!" I wish the next en or stars en has an underdog lore where they are a bunch of nobody heroes but gets powerful when they achieve a certain sub count

>>18855974
VSinger similar to AZKi, but then it doesn't make sense when you have Mori, a regular gen holo, producing way more original music than her.

IRyS love

Nobody names their child after 'demon' and 'light', in real life. As a real life name, it is refering the plant, like Jasmine or Rose.

>>18863249
You think 'demon light' is a fucking word in Japanese?
Retard.

>EOPs arguing about Japanese with each other with deepl and dictionaries
why do i come to this board, just to suffer? this isn't even about actual japanese knowledge anymore, you should've learned how japanese names work from all that dumb high school anime you've watched where the transfer student comes in and tells everyone how their name is written

>>18863249
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ホオズキ

The usage of the specific kanji is not a coincidence but it is a fucking plant.
Japanese use words for both meanings.

>>18874298
>this isn't even about actual japanese knowledge anymore
Well, if you're interesed, the Hozuki plant represents guidance to the spirits of the dead passing into the afterlife. So it is all related to Irys.

it's a plant and the plant's name can be written with the kanji for demon and light/lantern

shut up never post again

>>18873910
It’s not her given name, it’s her family name. And the family is a demon and an angel… demons very much do name their family ‘oni lantern’.

>>18875981
Wrong

>>18873910
Lucifer is the Angel of Light, so it's actually an appropriate name.

>>18818572
"In '21, Calli released this; Your Mori!, her most accomplished album. I think her undisputed masterpiece is "Red". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the antagonism of Time and physical limits against her aspirations. It's also a personal statement about Calli herself. Hey, Gura!"

>>18817143

who is quite insistent she is a kirin and lives amongst nature, albeit she doesn't always fag about her nature powers.

>>18856327
the difference is mori's footing the bill for all the stuff she does, and the connections to whatever music scene she belongs to all through her (and maybe jchad). It helps she actually writes some of her shit herself, even if it's garbage.
vsingers get funded by cover and so are subject to hololive's budgeting, connections, and whatever contracts they can negotiate with people who produce music (meaning writers/composers/band members), which delays things
