Hi I'm here tonight Sorry I wasn't here last night The past couple days have been really emotionally overwhelming for me and I kinda just ran out of strength last night
It's no problem, it was a slow night anyway. I hope things are going well.

>>952147 Things are okay for me, it's rather I've just gotten keeled over by the announcement of Hololive's Kiryuu Coco's graduation, hah hah I know it sounds ridiculous. I never really expected to get affected by it so much. But I guess over the past year and a half or so I've gotten pretty attached and, well, there's a lot here that it would take words and words to explain properly. I've literally written out a thousand words elsewhere trying to explain just why it's affected me so much.
Anno
I'll go see if Bang's ready for watching stuff tonight.
to be honest i'm surprised it happened at all because i expected it would have already happened a while ago i thought maybe the just decided to let her be the way she is but the stuff with china really is probably too much
the good news is, i'm sure kson will be back to streaming in one way or another pretty fast
Anno
It's not just about not having her, it's also not having her with Hololive. It means she won't be around for the communal aspect of the agency. That missing piece in the big interlocking picture which is their community is going to hurt. And even if she continues streaming elsewhere as a different person, she's still not Coco at that point.
Anno
oh actually she livestreams currently and has been i see this might be one of the reasons then
Yeah, if she was going to retire I would have thought it would be at the height of the china stuff.
full dive
what other bang shows do we have? is that just it?
Anno
childhood friend is the only other one i think
Anno
She's been fiercely insistent that it's her own personal decision, and in a members-only chat yesterday, likened it to the creative differences a band goes through when they inevitably end up splitting. Management had an image they wanted (she's unclear if it's specifically her or Hololive broadly), and she had an image for what would make her and her fanbase happy. There was just no compromising on the two and she decided if she was to keep in with what was expected of her, it would lead her to a point where she wouldn't be able to be happy with herself anymore. So her leaving the agency became inevitable.
Of course it's likely if the China stuff had never happened it would have never come to this point in the first place. But those are what ifs that we can't do anything about anymore.
Anno
well now that i see she's been streaming herself live recently it's probably a lot more her decision than just getting let go she might not want to deal with the rules anymore
Anno
It's logistically unthinkable that the management would ever want to let her go. They literally sacrificed the entire profits of China to keep her on board. She's regularly in the top two YouTube earnings for Vtubers in the entire world. Everyone within the agency and massive portions of the fanbase love her.
Cover are just a bunch of cowards that are too pre-occupied with their own rules and regulations to give her freedom.
She asked him if he pooped and peed too so maybe it does.
Anno
Maybe, but I think he would've retorted against that if it did More than a simple "Hai."
Anno
maybe he didn't know she was asking him
Anno
Honestly these two girls are probably more t han capable of filling out the lackluster guard.
Anno
tesla's best girl

HIS HAND
Anno
how is reona just cool with his hand being cut off
Anno
Alicia has become delightfully lunatic as the series has progressed.
Anno
goddamnit this old guy again?
Anno
oh maybe not? i figured if it involved the casino the old guy would be here
Anno
It is his usual stomping ground, yeah And him interfering with the layout of the game might explain why Hiro despite reading the walkthrough, was thrown off by this turn of events.
He's gonna spend the entire season in the starting town for this game I guess KonoSuba did that too but that was for comedy and not horrible game design
i'm the kind of person who doesn't like to sleep too late on vacations i'll sleep to 1pm on the weekends, but when i'm on vacation, 11am sounds like way too late
Anno
i wonder if kuro is gonna find out about the beach moment
Anno
Last episode was nice but it was missing Kuro.
Anno
i want kuro to win but if she loses it's 200% her own fault
Anno
UM Oh whoops From the top
Anno
U MI DA
Anno
More like Kouhai-chan has three melons
Anno
nee-san is bae-san
Anno
Kuro's blackheartedness is her charm point though
Anno
Gosh
Anno
GOSH
Anno
i would collect these cards
Anno
in fact, i hope they release them as merch i will acquire them somehow
Anno
>Not Kuroha Alter
Anno
how in the good Lord's name is he going to hold up to all this
I don't think it has all too many volumes out at the moment It might take a while for enough material to be out to make a second season out of.
Anno
The premise of this show is really a double-edged blade On one hand, it's nice that a childhood friend is gonna win But on the other hand, it means all these nice characters are gonna hurt when one wins
I don't think they're out-out There's six volumes, so I'd assume this season would cover somewhere in the range of 3-5 of them. Leaving a couple volumes spare. They'd probably need a year and change to get enough material out for another season.
Hopefully it's nothing worse than a sprained wrist It did sound like it broke, but these kinds of series generally avoid particularly nasty injuries like that.
yeah i was wondering where the faces for the adults were makes sense
Anno
Also a very unsettling concept Since we've first seen all these dolls with their own unique personalities and relationships with their masters And now we know eventually they're fated to be consumed by the Shadows
Anno
Yeah I thought Shaun's boast of how long it would take Ricky to to get to his master was kind of thing Ricky could use to calculate where Patrick was.
Anno
Louise and Lou seem to be the most standardly competent of the lot. As in they fit the ideal the the Shadows House seem to have for master and doll.
Hers, at least I wonder if the way she was when her face was exposed was more the personality of her doll shining through
Anno
Oh that profile shot of Kate was nice She's normally so composed that we don't get a lot of clear expression from her. But there was a faint smile we could see because of the profile shot.
Anno
That was slyyyy Edward Hiding the plain way to save Kate just out in the open
I don't know if it's just Edward or if he's operating on instructions from others But this has been rigged from the get-go to make Kate and Emilico fail
They do give most of the girls their own solid moment in the spotlight But Ai really comes across as the secondary main character of the series Sakura aside she gets a lot of character focus and on-screen struggles.
Anno
Ah oh no It's just the usual lot of die-hard fans again A repeat of the nightmare they went through before the season
Unless this was the concert that failed horribly that we hadn't seen happen properly yet.
Yeah judging from their reactions, this seems like it's the first time. So we're getting a flashback to the build up to episode one.
Anno
That's probably why they've been flashing dates at us So we know it was the stuff that's happened in the past rather than the current procession of things
The big one was the photo he got of Sakura chasing after Tae's head Everything else is just weird speculation on his part that wouldn't be taken seriously But, taken faithfully, it's hard to argue with a detached head
Anno
It is the same old man from the past!
Anno
Yikes I know Japan gets some pretty intense storms but that seems horrific
