Why is niji like this?
>>110112048You're going to have to explain this one OP, because all this seems like is some guy seemingly replying to something, and then someone QTing saying just understanding basic JP comms is not really sufficient for presumably a shooter tournament - which I agree with really.
>>110112048>The teams are composed of people who barely interacted or are good friends.Well he falls into the former category, so why even bring this up?
>>110112261ryouma (the worst performing male in the whole entire branch) complained on his not so secret IRL account about how he was not invited to the big nijisanji apex collab because he plays it a lot and he started crying about it but the thing is he does not speak japanese so they did not think to invite him but i guess that's too much for him
>>110112399Is he the just fucking ask guy?
>>110112427Not even close. That was a guy from a mostly abandoned wave called TTT.
>>110112427No that was Claude, who was part of Elira's clique
>>110112048
>>110112399But according to him, he does speak Japanese
>>110112048Meanwhile...
>>110113125>>110112955>>110112776And people call holofags drones
>>110113419Dunno for once I can kind of agree with them. Weird to be annoyed about not being invited when you can't speak the language. The only mitigating thing is he was doing on an alt I suppose.
>>110112048>>110112776>>110112955>>110113125I hate women so much. Why do they have to be so hostile all the time?
>>110112399Sorry I read this as>big nijisanji sex collabAnd now I’m too preoccupied to care about whatever this thread was about
All the Japanese people had to do is put up English subtitles while they talk like they do in anime.>picrel Spiderman speaking Japanese to Cheebs
>>110114068>Why do they have to be so hostile all the timeBut enough about how ERB and Shiroi were treated after they collabed with Holostars.
>>110113942Counterpoint: >>110112776He CAN speak Japanese. Maybe not natively, maybe not well enough to do a five hour JP only zatsu; but he can speak Japanese well enough to communicate with Japanese players in Apex. I imagine it's comparable to Shohei Ootani's English proficiency - not good enough for an ambassadorship, but well enough for the job he does.Also he was bonked by management the last time he went on PL and said something the sisters find disagreeable, so they're probably gonna bonk him again for this.
>>110114740niji JP is miles above niji EN and niji JP hates EN
>>110112776I don't really understand what his point is. Selen had played Apex with Kanae and Qu-Chan for one of the ShibuHal events years back and the only mitigating factor was that Kanae invited her to play on his team because she is/was a washed up top 500 apex player. Kanae straight up said he hardly understood Selen and his English comprehension is passable for a JP.Every APEX tournament revolves around getting to know each other BESIDES in-game comms. Ryoma should get over himself instead of posting about it knowing everyone knows his irl alt.
>>110115100In hindsight, Selen’s ex-predator status and her attitude pre-termination probably helped a lot in drawing interest from the JP side. She did a lot of collabs and participated in a lot of events that were predominantly JP, and she even did pretty well in lobbies with horrid ping. Selen powered through all of that with zero functional nihongospeak because as an ex-Apex Predator, she was able to play the game at a level beyond the average vtuber and that skill transcends the need for words sometimes. JP and CN fans used to like her for her energy and her easy-to-understand English because she tends to use simple words and repeat herself. She was always happy and despite laughing like a maniac, she was somehow good at the game. Ryoma is none of these things. He doesn’t have the “fluency” needed to charm his way in, he lacks the connections/networking needed to worm his way in, and he lacks the raw skill and accolades to brute his force his way into getting picked. With all of that said, he’s quite inoffensive. Nijifans just can’t help themselves from jumping at the chance to chastise a talent the moment they behave even slightly out of line. The post-traumatic Selen disorder is just that potent: they don’t want to leave any avenue that can be possibly exploited by dramatubers. No public criticism or venting allowed. You’re a corpotuber, you’re only allowed to smile and wave until you graduate for “disagreements with management.”
>>110115100That's exactly his point. He speaks the language well enough to play Apex with Japanese players, but the company cited the language barrier as the reason he can't participate in the Apex tournament with Japanese players.
how about instead of crying like a bitch on twitter, speak up and say>I would like to be kept in mind for future APEX events if possible. What do I need to improve on to be considered?they didn't pick you because they didn't want you this time. if there is a next time, they almost certianly wont look your way now cause you acted like a bitch
>>110114795Seible from EN is participating in the event. This is more on Ryoma being a self-centered bitch than anything else.
>>110115761seible speaks just about perfect japanese lol, it's just that no one likes ryoma
>>110112048He's only mad cause he can't insert himself into other more successful vtubers' streams to try to siphon viewers from them.
>>110115612What's to say he hasn't already asked, and been told that he will never be considered for future Apex events? What's to say they haven't already permabanned him because he's on their shit list for his anti-Aster tirade over six months ago?
>>110115888He was in a niji apex event a month ago with a premade EN team
>>110115793Considering his public bitching, it makes sense.
Reported this behavior through anycolor's form. Hopefully this leads to his termination.
>>110115552He said he "thinks" he speaks well enough based on a different collab for a different game (I don't know how factual that is or if he just got 日本語上手'd to death, I steer clear of EN corpos and I respect Ryoma for speaking up for Twisty, but that's about it). Also you have to understand that the people running it are the talents themselves - not the company. Majority of the events are hosted and orchestrated by the talents except for a few.>>110115476Makes a good point; Ryouma has nothing remarkable to show for himself and is the runt of the entire branch. I criticize him for making it sound like it's a xenophobic thing when it's probably because he's a literal who that doesn't have anyone to vouch for him during the event. I doubt he has many friends within the main branch, but he's not pulling crowds even if he did.
>>110115888What's to say he has? The burden of proof is on you.All we know is he took to twitter and cried like a bitch because he didnt get his way on something he thought he was entitled to
>>110116223Pretty much. No content creator wants to hang out with the guy that is going to air every tiny grievance he has out in public like this.
>>110112048How is this nigga always bitching like a bpd barbie, isn't he supposed to be this old wise man?
>>110114740What are they going to do, fire him?
>>110116511That's a reward
It's good that hololive is friendly to all its talents. Quite a few EN members who can't speak Japanese will be in Pekora's Mario Tennis tournament. I guess Nijisanji just wants to be seen as exclusionary only to those who speak JP.
>>110115799Funny that sounds just like what a seething nijinigger would say
Niji has much higher internal walls than other companies. Arguably even higher internal walls than external walls. I wouldn't be shocked if this is because one or more of the organizers forgot there even is an EN branch.
>gatekeeping whiny eop faggothonestly based, judge from his whiny attitude, they dodged a bullet there
If he wants to join jp events that badly why not take the time to learn the language??
