/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>4350952
More tummy please!

Ghost, Dark and Poison

imagine if monoe applies and they rehire her haha

>>4351193
I won't imagine that

Just hope the designs are more in the original vein or at least middle ground between dwarven goblin Pikamee and sexy dumb goth TMSK. Right now putting them side by side looks weird.

>>4350952
>how many
Three. Also, I hope they go back to the original models with the new VOMS. I love Pika, but ever since they changed her design, I stop watching her streams.

>>4350952
One. A demagnetizer.

>>4351107
PLEASE

>>4350952
Her English has "member" as opposed to "members", I don't think that's a mistake she would make for an important announcement. Water is the most obvious element to add (electric, fire, water) but it's also the most boring.

>>4351325
Same. Pikaiju sucks. Classic Pikamee is the best Pikamee.

I just hope they don't look like new TMSK
Kaiju pika is cute as fuck, so I wouldn't care if the new ones look like her

>>4351267
>>4351325
They will most likely be like the original models or atleast I hope so.
It may be because I'm fucking autistic but I like groups were all members have something in common with their design philosophy.

Ice voms would be cool

I thought VOMS would never hire new members because it was a group of three friends, or maybe the fandom deluded themselves into believing this?

>>4350952
I'm really happy to see this. I was afraid the project was slowly dying in the background after Magnet was shitcanned. Glad to see VOMS moving forward.

>>4351325
>>4351449
I like Pikaiju, it's better than the boring casual outfits other vtubers like so much.
that being said, I do want to see the old model from time to time, it's a little boring at this point seeing the same one.

>>4351774
It never was a group of friends. Gyari published the designs, and only after that he announced auditions for them. Girls did not know each other and interactions were pretty awkward at first.

>>4350952
not really elements but it would fit VOMS nicely

>>4351325
>ever since they changed her design
The worst part is that their old design got new outfits, but Pikamee or Tomoshika refuse to use them.

>>4351988
Perhaps they're not allowed to?

>>4351959
It would be a WASTE of a design

>>4350952
3 voms is the obvious answer, they'll be their new own unit and I have no idea what the design themes might be.
They're monsters right? So maybe we'll get some water or ice girls, a slime maybe.

>>4352041
Literally why would gyari go through the effort if this were the case

>>4351908
Considering it was a veteran with two complete unknowns that makes a lot of sense.

>>4352114
The same reason he instantly killed off a third of VOMS with no graduation or explanation, I suppose.

>>4352083
>unit
Voms and unit should have a fancy portmanteau.
How about vomit

>>4350952
1 new girl, Almighty element

>>4351988
Tomoshika used her drip outfit in the last stream with her brother, you mong.

>>4351506
>>4351325
>>4351449
>

>>4352083
>3 voms is the obvious answer
I would say 2 new voms is the obvious answer, GYARI said that 3 voms was already a lot of work so having 5 would be too much, and only 1 would feel like they are just filling the magnet spot so I don't think that would be the case.
Also based slimebro.

>dayo in english but not japanese
what did pika mean by this?

Wonder if they will be looking for an English speaker like Pikamee again

>>4352469
Fanservice

>>4351193
What did Monoe even do? Gimme your rrats.

>>4352573
Drugs or negotiations about contracts with other agencies.

>>4352449
Also, this is a really dumb reason but there are many more multiplayer games for 4 players than they are for 5.

>>4352600
Neat. How hard drugs are we talking about here?

>>4352469
Pikamee is a coldblooded sociopath. Did the "dayos" and "oh btw I'm gonna kettle constantly now that it's a clip generator" and everything else not clue you in? I bet you thought her new cat just happened to fall deathly ill and require her absence immediately after Monoe's graduation.
The only genuine element of Pikamee is her rampant pedophilia that she can't and won't hide. They had new input on their models and the oversized orangutan loli-catching arms were entirely her idea, another bold hint at the 230lbs daughter-snatching monster that is the IRL Pikamee.

>>4352652
Any drugs are grounds for dismissal from showbiz in Japan. Even just weed gets you axed.

>>4350952
I don't really follow voms. Why did the magnet girl get fired? All I can find is that it was a breach of contract.

>>4352573
We'll never know for sure (since Pika, Tmsk, and Gyari are the only ones who would leak it), so don't let any rrat convince you too much, but the combination of being let go suddenly and neither of the others seeming mad at her makes the drug one most convincing to me. Probably something as minor as weed, given Japan's attitude to it.

>>4352749
Nobody knows except for the 3 people that work there and they aren't talking so don't believe anything anyone tells you, it's just speculation.

luv me Pikamee
luv me TMSK
luv me Monoe
'ate penguin

I really hate GYARI. I can't be the only one.

>>4350952
Imagine if triangle gets the spot

>>4353501
This fucking place would be unusable for days, again.

>>4353501
Isn't Triangle still just chilling out and trying to get her life in order?

>>4351325
My baseless personal rrat is that magnet hated her new model so much she quit or refused to use it and broke contract

It's time for her to come back.

>>4350952
I DEMAND a tomboy rock type VOMS girl with a construction helmet.

I refuse to elaborate further.

>>4352749
She slapped GYARI

Hitomi Chris for Voms!

>>4350952
Gonna need a Wood-element girl that can bench press TMSK and Pika at the same time.

It's gonna be Sio, Aloe and Roa

>>4351325
Shit taste. I have the same thing for TMSK though

>>4352573
Raped Pikamee in front of gyari while doing coke off her tits while being a civil servant.

>TICK TOCK

>>4354365
in front of Pikamee!

I wonder if GYARI wants another bilingual. I mean, the first one worked out so well

>>4351107
You know, for some reason I was embarrassed about liking midriffs, I was in denial, too. But now I embrace it, and turns out a lot of guys like them.

>>4354885
Seems like a good bet.
Will Pikamee demand a loli kouhai?

>>4354467
>Pekora put out a prison outfit
>So now Chris wants to be an idol from prison
lmao

>>4354715
This is the truth. My uncle works for GYARI's stepson's grandfather's roommate's cousin.

>>4352652
She did weed once in high school which is a mortal sin in Japan.

>>4355001
A bilingual loli kouhai would be the only way GYARI could introduce a new english speaking Voms without Pika trying to kill her so it's a good idea.

>>4352573
Bath salts.

>>4351774
they seemed to imply they weren't hiring anyone else, but not for any particular reason. nonetheless, lies and betrayals are par for the course.

>>4354715
Wait, so did she do coke off Pika's tits or her own?

>>4354191
I wouldn't blame her. Their new models are a complete downgrade.

is cunny an element?

>>4356841
It's a fundamental force.

>>4356841
Cunnypilled is, and Pika already took that spot.

>>4350952
dark psychic

>>4351193
You are retarded

>>4350952
I hope they keep the nichijou theme

>>4362418
And so is your mother you autist

>>4350952
Why are you guys hyped for this? Look at the new models that make both VOMS survivors more like indies than a themed group from a vstreaming company (remember when most fell for the "VOMS is indie" lie?). Especially TMSK, who the fuck thinks having your model be in a pose that can barely move is a good idea?

>>4350952
>VOMS member
>member
Only one person

>>4362839
she just said members in her stream my clipfriend

Do you think they'll hire unknowns again or go with mostly already established vtubers/streamers/etc?

>>4363114
If it wasn't for GYARI choosing complete unknowns with no experience Pikamee would've never become a Vtuber, so I hope he does the same here.

Here's your new member, it's a nose element monster.

>people sucking off GYARI
Never forgive. Never forget.

>>4365209
>hey pikamee what would you do if you woke up one day and you were 3 feet tall and your face looks like a toddler but your arms remained the same length as they were yesterday.

>>4350952
Magnetism, electricity and fire are states of energy in motion, right? Gravity maybe if they only add one new member?

>>4365341
>Hey TMSK who would win in a fight? The heat death of the universe, or Tito from Rocket Power?

>>4350952
WATER

AND IT'LL BE A SHARK

WATCH THIS POST

GYARI IS GOING TO MAKE A CUNNY SHARK

>>4365279
Magnets on suicide watch

Pikamee said "members" in stream, and said it in English and Japanese. Maybe they will accept EN applications

>>4356093
I was the one who did the coke lines in the shape of a heart

>>4350952
I always thought they were different types of energy rather than just straight up elements. So I'm guessing Steam, Coal, and Atomic.

>>4374482
They're a Pokémon parody, what made you think they weren't elements??

>>4374516
Monoe actually. Never really saw "magnets" as an element

Why does Tomoshika's current outfit look so bad anyway? Who designs that and thinks it's okay?

>>4374569
That's because she's steel type.

>>4374595
She did. The newest outfits were made with their input and ideas in mind.

>>4374665
She wanted to have the JUST haircut? Christ.

>>4374679
It's supposed to be a menhera haircut

>>4350952
Why did Pika say VOMS is indie. It looks like corporate to me.

>>4375913
Indie means independent from any pre-established big brand. It doesn't mean they can't start a new small company of their own.

>>4376026
Is that it? So, more accurately, VOMS' small corps?

>>4376054
Yes. Just look at any indie video game company ever. Like, dunno, Team Cherry. They're like 3 guys who made their own company and their own game. They're a company, but one that started from scratch.

>>4375913
She's said they're a mix. Gyari handles their live2D (Obviously.) and gets merch revenue, but on the actual streaming end it's all them (and they get all the superchats).
That's part of why Monoe was such a surprise, because Gyari doesn't really restrict them at all, so it pretty much HAD to be either something illegal or like, bootleg merch or something to be a breach of contract.

>>4350952
Water, turns out to have poorly disguised watersports fetish.

>>4377680
Hot.

>>4352469
she is extra friendly to us

>>4350952
Whats the point if the character design is going to be shit anyways? Poor Hikasa

fpbp

If (You) want to audition, you can be from anywhere, but you have to speak fluent Japanese, per Pika in the membership stream.

>>4353501
triangle?

stream in 20 hours

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTAK79mMtCg

>>4351449
Pikaiju looks worse because it has that default smiling expression. Pikamee's normal default expression was more neutral, which gave her more wiggle room, but now she can't stop smiling, and that looks pretty damn uncanny.
But at least she's not Tomoshika. That new model is a tragedy.

>>4353477
Why though? GYARI seems like a really nice guy, and he makes great fucking music.

#justive4magnet

>>4386278
Whatever Monoe did, she did to herself, no doubt about that. There's simply no space for interpersonal drama in VOMS.

>>4350952
Why would anyone willingly join VOMS? Either aim for a big company or just be independent, not be in a small company with lousy character designs.

Speaking of Monoe, does anyone know if she reincarnated or not?

>>4350952
It's to replace Monoe. It's one new member and it'll be a water theme.

>>4351774
>>4355841
It's not like they expected Monoe to break contract.

>>4352449
>only 1 would feel like they are just filling the magnet spot
I'm like 90% confident it's as basic as this.

>>4350952
Ice, Grass, and Fairy

>>4386514
no sign of it

>>4354365
Did Monoe move to New York?

I unironically would like to see a radioactive/nuclear energy VTuber but it's Japan so never happening, much less in VOMS.

>>4352573
Most likely she has a day job as a civil servant who by law can't have any other job, so when it came time for tax season Gyari panicked and canned her.

>>4354885
>>4355001
>>4355697
Tmsk needs a friend. Pikamee is fine on her own.

>>4386706
If that's the case I will anti the new girl hard. She won't see the light of day in the english community.

I want a metal/steel type

>>4386481
I agree, never understood the appeal.

>>4365352
Motion of the ocean my friend.

>>4386481
7th largest vtuber company/circle in the world despite having 3ish members. You do not understand how many people apply to even the lowest tier agencies.

>>4386481
>be independent
you underestimate how big voms is compared to being literal 2viewers nobody. Especially you get the gyari buff.

>>4365477
Tito has all the knowledge of the ancient hawaiians on his side so he'd win.

>>4386758
Most likely, but even Pika broke at the fact that "everyone knew what was she doing and she refused to stop".
I really hope she just has a civil servant job and not the schizo level theories like that one about the woman and her 3 daughters, one the supposed age of Monoe, getting deported back to Thailand because the mom was importing drugs to Japan and the daughters (half thai, half jap) were selling them.
>"Anon, that sounds like bait"
It's a convoluted rrat I used as example, it was in circulation when Monoe got canned, don't believe in it.

>>4386481
Pikamee is already relatively big, though.

>>4376760
Or the civil servant angle with the taxes.

>>4386858
yeah. /vt/ tends to warp your expectations

just getting to 100k in a year is more than most vtubers will ever get

>>4376760
>Something illegal
>Corporate espionage rrat comes to mind

>>4386727
Shame, I want to hear that laugh again.

>>4386481
>>4386799
Buddy do you have any idea how small your average indie is? we are at the level where if a vtuber breaks 10k subs that's considered to be the top leagues. Joining VOMS gurantees you a support network and probably 50k subs and that's more than most indies will ever see.
And this isn't even counting how even the relatively low quality rigs Voms are using will cost you at least 2-3k on the open market these days. Joining voms is basically a guaranteed success and any indie would kill to have the opportunity.

>>4386877
>everyone knew what was she doing and she refused to stop
Source on this quote?

>>4386964
What did the line used to be? There was a vtuber that was middling despite having a professional VA and she was used as the line for success if you could surpass her subscriber count.

>>4386998
If you're lower than him you're officially beneath a dead channel

>>4386964
>>4386905
and nowadays. you have so much competition too. indies will have more and more trouble

>>4386877
>woman and her 3 daughters
Which one was this rrat again?

>>4386998
YUA...

>>4386967
Pikamee, at her announcement emergency stream back when the Monoe situation hit the ceiling.

>>4386905
There are 14k vtubers. There are 331 with subs above 100k. All VOMS members have more than 100k. VOMS is a good deal.

>>4387164
The famous YUA line. She'll be back right?

>>4352573
Magnet was a drug kingpin who got busted in cambodia after having sex with a thai ladyboy while snorting cocaine off his ass
No it's not realistic but it's funnier this way and it holds about as much water as any other theory brought forth.

>>4387268
I would hope for her own sanity she quit sooner than she did. She was stuck in a situation of growing just slow enough not to quit along with the trend but growing way slower than any of the OGs from back when she started.

>>4387268
Yeah, sure she will...

>>4387326
YUA reminds me that no matter how shit you call Holo/Niji managers none will be as grotesquely incompetent as hers.

>>4387359
Or Upd8's
Or Gamebu's
Or really the fifty thousand dumpsterfires of companies that cropped up between 2017 and 2020.

>>4387380
of course, but YUA's take the cake, I still cringe remembering her Spanish arc.

>>4387326
That's the actual YUA?

>>4387441
Gee I don't know, you tell me.

>>4387246
indeed. it's just like i said. if you only see the holos and nijis. you really get a warped vision over how big the average vtuber is

>>4386998
was mikami shiori really yua after all?

>>4387441
The girl in the picture is another vtuber who had it much worse than yua.

>>4387446
Same, I don't get if this means yes or no.

>>4387552
Oh...
Kek, Imagine being her manager and believe this is 100% the right thing to do.

>>4387400
Come on now, she needed an audience expansion.

Long gone are the days where Sora is called knock off YUA.

>>4387792
The fact Yua back then was 1000x more entertaining than Sora has ever been really speaks volumes of how important management is.

>>4387885
A-chan really did hard carry Sora's old content.

>>4387512
Another problem is this board not only sees only holo, they only see holoEN.

>>4350952
I just want magnet back

>>4387246
>331
Where are you getting this number from? My chart only counts 323, and that includes the newest .live member who just hit 100k the other day.

>>4388318
I meant 321 but I didn't think it mattered enough to correct it since the point was made either way. I probably from the same source I saw a few days back.

I lost the link though.

>>4351446
Heres hoping for darkness!

>>4386674
Did yall ever find out what was even broken to blitz a graduation that fast?

>>4352573
She died. GYARI was going to phase her out gradually after it happened, but her carcass rotted faster than expected.

>>4352573
Subcontracting her job to people with similar voices.

>>4352698
Thats so weird to me. Its not like theyre top of the line idols or managers of a big company. Gyari is making music with cute animation for anime fans/otaku, you'd think in that scene theyre a bit more loose about drug abuse. Like in the west youd be expected to toke it up every now and then when youre in this kind of scene

>>4350952

>and what elements

Newfriend here, how did TMSK and the pedo take Monoe's dismissal?

>>4390511
TMSK tried to stay strong but eventually broke down
Pikamee was crying throughout the announcement

>>4352573
No one here will actually know. It was likely a completely offline infraction of their contract.

>>4352573
threatened to rat out pikamee to the police for kidnapping lolis at the park

They should add 2 more instead of one.

>>4391308
It's not a meme, but it IS unfunny and the jokes usually reek of "ironic weeb xDD"

>>4391308
She proudly admits to buying Comic LO

I do feel better about having read every single issue of comic LO of the past 4 years when I hear that pikamee reads it too.

>>4392406
A flower, a spigot, a jewel, and a syringe

>>4392692
Wouldn't a mushroom also work for a ground-themed one?

They fit into different types (steel, fire, and electricity). These all share the technology/industrial trait so maybe the new one will have something to do with that.

>Circuit Board
>Steam/Valve
>Neon Sign

That is unless they decide to go for two instead of one and do a new theme. Which would probably be the better option for four player games.

Water and grass type VOMS feel the most on brand to round out gee wun pokemon starters

>>4386481
I don't think anyone already established would, but for indies grinding away in absolute anonymity it's a lifeline. Even if only 400 people watch you that's better than 25.

>>4350952
This time next year voms will be bigger than Hololive.

No, and unless one of the four people involved leaks it we probably won't ever know.

>>4400626
>monoe
>not Frei
gotta dig deep or ngmi

>>4401060
She doesn't speak Japanese, which is what EOP means.

>>4408939
EOP means you only speak English. Regardless you are right that they wouldn't hire her since she doesn't speak Japanese.

>>4409016
Yes, but it's specifically used in the context of vtubers, which means that you can only try to communicate with them in English, regardless of how many other languages you may know.

>>4409078
I'm not sure what that means but the term has been around since 2014 and isn't limited to vtubers. It's a moot point since VOMs wouldn't hire someone who can't speak Japanese.

>>4409078
>>4408939
EoPs dont include esls, it's a burger bullying word (and that's a good thing)

>>4409340
Nah. EOP was first used to mock those who could only read visual novels in English. Doesn't matter which languages you speak, if you would only read a VN if it were translated to English you were an EOP.
It's not about you only speaking English, it's about you being unable to read Japanese. In the context of vtubers, understanding Japanese at all.
