>>79853408>a collaboration that potentially interests people from both sides of the aisleWhat "aisle" is that? The funny thing is that this hack writer accidently realizes that the only place the Dodgers could get new fans is from Japan, this collab can't grow the declining western vtubing market.
>>79853835>this collab can't grow the declining western vtubing market. for niji maybe, hololive only grows stronger :3

>>79854952>literally ownI don't think you are intelligent enough to understand why the word literally doesn't apply here, so I won't explain it to you.

LIKE THE TWEET!!!
>>79855483Yes, but it could be much worse.
>>79853299Whoever wrote that article should be fired. They are clearly a lazy fuck scrounging for an article idea and most likely /here/.I want to point out, when the Dodgers play away games the home teams will sell Japanese advertisements behind home plate. Ohtani is a fucking god in Japan. Gawr fucking Gura is absolutely nobody in comparison. It's like saying Pekora could help the Lakers reach more Americans. Absolutely asinine.
>>79855293Funny that sounds just like what a seething nijinigger would say
>>79855646>It's like saying Pekora could help the Lakers reach more Americans.No, retard, it is not at all saying this.
>>79855713Yes it is
>>79854525lmao, they're bigger than her on twitter, what is she, some kind of indie?

>>79853299huhaha
>>79854570I don't get it.
It's 6 AM and time for your daily dose WAH UH WAH UH ZEE ZEE of the Baseball Juuuuuuuunnnnnnnkiieeeees, with Mike Krapawczyk and Rod 'the Hammer' Stevens.Rod, you've got a good look now at Hololive's 2024 rookie class. A penny for your thoughts, brother.Well Mike, there are no breakaway stars this season. There is one newcomer breaking away towards the Holostars--Tim, can I get a WAMP WOMP?--and we'll talk more about fraternization policies after the ad break. On the whole though it's a solid lineup. Personally, I've got my eye on Panthera. I know the pocket protector number number crunchers have Immergreen pegged as having the most potential, but let me tell you, Panthera has a little bit of that 'it' factor. Let me tell you, I've been commentating professionally on the game for over 40 years and I can see 'it'. They say the accent weighs her down. They said the same thing about Ichiro's stance and look how far he got with it.

>>79858127>Mariners fan?I'm so sorry.
>>79858318If we're keeping with the blue theme, the Mavs would be a better fit right now. Luka plays ow2, the most anime-adjacent shooter next to valorant, so there's a nonzero chance he might be a weeb, and therefore open to collabs
>Love LA>Love Dodgers>Love HololiveLove!
>>79854738It wont be because people havent really cared about baseball since the early 90s strike most people here didnt even know about because they werent born yet. Baseball is like the 4th place major sport and only 3 teams actually make money

>>79872424sorry to burst your bubble but normalfags don't look at a "cartoon child" and go "oh look, a loli!"it does make me feel better though that they're not shitting on hololive but having a positive take
>>79872831I was under the assumption that mainstream media's staffed by mostly danger hairs and would consider them a no-no but I'm glad to be wrong
>>79853299Remember to gatekeep. Reject normies. The end result of the normalization of vtubing is the destruction of vtubing.

>>79853299>how do you plan to compete with Gawr Gura
>>79853299UMM I THOUGHT FWMC SURPASSED GURA AS THE FACE OF HOLOLIVE???
People who use the word "vtubing" to refer to vtuber activities should be gatekept as wellIt just makes me feel like vtubers and fans who use the word are still hiding behind layers of irony instead of embracing the vtuber concept fullyAdding it to my word filters improved my /vt/ browsing experience somewhat, but curiosity got the better of me today
>>79873564massive cope
>>79854815Pippa is my Oshi and she is leagues below Gura...their not in the same ball park.

doyerbros, how we feel about this cartoon shark?
>>79863268You forgot that he had the same opponent as the previous elections.
>>79854525true
Can a baseballfag enlighten me a bit. I know jack shit about this sport, and I don't even know the winning condition other than, hit the ball, then go around the field to score the point.What is so special about Ohtani seems like everyone can't shut the fuck up about him? Is it because he's a jap? He's a token player?Is he like the CR of baseball? All I see is that he's a DH (designated hitter), which to me sounds like he's just a sub player that bat the ball (because the pitcher sucks at it) and never play catch?I don't get it. Please, explain to me.
>>79855686nah
>>79859324Yeeeeaaahhhh LA Times is a bit of a joke, so no one will be reading it, but it is still pretty cool.

>>79853299>eat at the hololive ramen collab before the game>rep my oshi and watch her friend perform duringL.A. isn't too bad.
>>79853299>>79853299>sports fans look up Gura>the video that pops up is Gura dancing in miniskirts saying the word "loli" a billion times.................
I don't think I can watch, I'm gonna cringe too hard knowing 99% of the audience are gonna be drunk normies laughing at it or getting weirded out. I don't know the demographics of LA but this still feels like something that as of today would only really work in Japan. I hope I'm wrong and people think it's cute.
>>79893630LA is 80% Mexicans who have no idea vtubers exist
>>79853299How long until one of them ends up in TIME?
>>79893630You'd think so but LA has hosted a ton of cringe things before. Normies in LA are more tolerable of these things due to the greater diversity found here.Dodger stadium has hosted Hello Kitty night event before which turned out to be a very popular and successful event. Think they're hosting another one later this year.
