>>91586200nijisanji won, they atleast had an attending representative at the event unlike holo and maintains good relation with filian for future events.

>>91587404>good relation with filianNigga sisters despise filian ever since the nendoroid fiasco and the "controversial comments" from her. They would rather kill themselves than watching any of her content
>>91586200Nothing against the girls themselves, but this HAS to sting for the shitflingers /here/
>>91586200They didnt win any awards, but Phase's Lumi and Lia are on cloud 9. How many non holos can say they have performed their original songs in 3D to over 50,000 live viewers on twitch and youtube?
>>91587836No, hololive deserves this award.
>>91588147No, look a little below that. That's the part that stings for them.
>>91587836>>91588220>hololive won the one award sponsored by PhaseNot beating the cuck allegations, kek
>>91586357fpbp
>>91588220lmao
so which vtuber award is the relevant one
>>91588921This one, because Hololive won
Hold up... you're telling me the biggest Vtuber company won the most awards?? No way
>Same people who were seething over Ironmouse being Vtuber of the year from zerg votes are now rejoicing over Hololive girls winning random awards from zerg votesDo holodrones really?
>>91587404>>91587468>attending representative at the event>Who?The one who won them an award last year along her colleague who won two awards this year again.They couldn't attend the event in person, but it's good that their roommates got to attend to represent them.
>>91590469kekman, the bird really got done dirty.Instead of the award she wanted (gamer of the year) she got put up against the goliaths, and the category that her event was in originally excluded concerts. I guess they didn't get enough entries so they just threw in breaking dimensions and called it a day. She never had a chance. It's a miracle she won what she did, considering the FPS clip that was included had nothing to do with her FPS skills.
>>91590602She wanted FPS and Gamer of the Year (the ones she won last time) so she got one of them.
>>91590723>>91590602That and the second one about most dedicated fanbase was also absolutely deserved. Reason why the future is indie for Vtubers.If she was in the nominees for gamer of the year, she'd also have been put against goliaths as well. I wish I knew more about the rest, but I'd have put my money on Kaela because of the sheer amount of grind.Oh also sorry, I forgot one more attending representative of Niji at the event. They were there at the beginning of the event too, silly me.
>>91586200Arielle won hers due to VShojo and Reya won hers due to Holo, so you can add them
>>91587941Mouse sang 2 originals, one that she debuted there, at the streamer awards in front of 204,000 live viewers.
>>91586200Sounds accurate to the currently EN state. Holo as the giant, VShojo also there (they also overperformed in my opinion, but at least Ironmouse was subbed), and a lot of big to small indies.Give the ASMR award to someone else, and the gamer one to biboo, and it's perfect.
>>91593139>(they also overperformed in my opinion, but at least Ironmouse was subbed)what does this mean?
>>91586200>HoloGTA (Event)lmao are you kidding me
>>91591620i think swarm deserved fanbase and filian rigged it but whatever
>>91593257>filian rigged itnigga vedal literally won. Filian is a slobbering retard but you can't cry rigged everytimes something you want to win doesn't win.
>>91593172I meant snubbed, because I can't stand how she became the awards and sleepothon vtuber.
>>91593379vedal has 3 times dokis ccv do you really think she has a bigger fanbase that him
>>91593454I mean, it's not like she didn't still win an award, anon. Ironically the same award fuwamoco won last year. They just swapped spots. Kind of funny really.
>>91593503it wasn't about numbers. The award is listed as "Recognizing the passionate and unwavering fanbase who stands by their favorite Vtuber."
>>91593503No, but it wasn't a "biggest fanbase" award. It was "most dedicated."And after january, I don't think the swarm has done anything even close to what they did with #WhereIsSelen
>>91593580>>91593584still rigged, fuck you dookiefags, i hope she falls of next year and neuro never collabs with her
>>91586200Reya counts as a Holowin
>>91593615...Why?How does Doki winning an award that Vedal didn't even care about affect you so strongly that you'd wish ill on her?
Surprised Mouse still gets as many votes as she does at the vtuber awards when she never even knows she's nominated for anything in it. She seems much more interested in getting vtubers more accepted mainstream in other shows like the streamer awards.
>>91593710cause its pretty obvious it was gifted to her cause itd look good for the narrative of her being a poor bully victim, look swarm hates mouse for being a similarly "sick" pitybaiting victim, and doki is just the same. at least doki will only win shit this year though, next year she aint getting shit viewwise and awardwise
>>91593800>more interested in getting vtubers more accepted mainstream in other shows like the streamer awardsyou mean, getting herself more accepted lmao. she dont give a fuck about other vtubers not even zen
>>91593584That's also why I'm not sure why Chumbuds won last year's award. What made them most dedicated? That they stayed chumbuds while their oshi didn't stream a lot?Numbers seem to be the only reason they won, but numbers can only get you so far.
>>91593827Are you the samefag that always pretends to be a zen fan?
I advise being kind to the sore losers, the shame they'll inevitably have to live with will take 15 years from their life.
>>91593875are you the mousefags that always acts like zen eating shit because of overlord mouse is a good thing actually
>>91593922Your larp is terrible.
>>91594033this but you mousefag
>>91593802once again, how does this affect you? Doki's fanbase gained notoriety not just from her own fans, but from everyone else who was around in January. It wasn't just the dragoons voting for her. Had the swarm won, it would've felt a little bad, sure, but it's not like it'd make us hostile towards Vedal or even the swarm. In the end we don't really give a shit about the award itself as much as the chuubas we like knowing how much we appreciate their content. Also I'm afraid to break it to you, but her pity buff wore off months ago. She's not going anywhere, and it's highly likely that Neuro and Vedal will be participating in future events run by her.
>>91594158notoriety for dramafagging maybe, how is that good for vtubing? vedal uplifted like a dozen 2views to 3views this year, got Bo and Cerbed nominated, only for corpos and dramafaggots to win. Not that it matters, next year Vedal will keep supporting actual indies instead of numberfagging to the max or begging for drama to happen.
>>91594151So you're saying I'm not a real "mousefag" ?lol
>>91594217I swear I see this guy in every thread about how some Indy or Vshojo won instead of Vedal. Niggas act like he's the most oppressed dude on the planet. He's in chains bro, suffering.
>>91594244no you are the definition of mousefag, only care about mouse even if she takes away from zen and the rest
>>91594296vedal was raped by his aunt in germany 10 years ago, thes the most suffering vtuber trust me
>>91594217Anon, you're chasing windmills and I don't know exactly why you're so angry about this. There isn't even a physical trophy, unlike when Doki gave Vedal a high quality physical wrestling belt. Vedal's plenty respected and getting a ton of recognition all throughout the world, and this award show won't even be a blip on his record. Why are you getting so angry on his behalf?
The categories were rigged against Niji. They would have easily won:>Leaker of the year>Bully of the year
>>91593800She might not care, but her fans are the exact target audience of this show
>>91594363vedal is one of the few good people in vtubing between all the corpofags and ex corpofags that pretend like they care about indies but only use them as stepping stones, but like i said, this is doki's only year to shine, shy of any drama happening again she will be literally who next year while vedal and neuro only grow more and more
>>91594313Alright ESL, please tell me how much of a real Zen fan you are. Do you even know about anything she did during her stream last night? Why not post your twitch recap showing who you watched.
>>91594459Bro just buy an ad already. We see you make threads complaining every time he doesn't win something. We see you make threads about how big is numbers are compared to everyone else. You're right, he is a nice guy. Why don't you act more like him instead of a sperg.
>>91594459> this is doki's only year to shine, shy of any drama happening again she will be literally who next year while vedal and neuro only grow more and moreanon I don't know how to tell you this, but prior to returning as Dokibird, Doki used the name Selen and was already shining quite brightly. She's only shone brighter since losing that name, and she definitely doesn't need drama to do good work for everybody. Someone else doing well doesn't mean your oshi is doing badly. It's not a zero sum system. Both Vedal and Doki can survive in the same streaming environment.
>>91594703You're arguing with an insane person. This guy goes at everyone who ever gets one over on Vedal and Neuro in his eyes. We've seen it in /vsj+/ plenty cause he's obsessed with mouse.
>>91594703niji is shit brother in or out its the same
>>91587404weak bait
i hope she runs out of flintstone gummies
>>91594703>Dragoons win for clicking follow on a new account
hololive didn't even care abourt this, none of them recorded victory speech
>>91595310I don't think it's allowed for them.
>>91586357All of the above are winners simply by being nominated, mentioned, and having "a seat at the table"Same goes for vallure and nene from kawaii(soon to be dissolved) because they were nominated.The only losers are idol corp because they were mentioned last year but not for this one, and pixellink because they were expected to be doing ok but if no one is talking about them that is troubling.
>>91586200I get that Hololive is popular, but Fauna's wins seem kinda bullshit since she did nothing to earn them. Seriously, how do you get nominated for/win Best ASMR when you only made 2 the entire year? Those rules need to be revised.
>>91595310pls understand they had 1000 page document of perms to go through in order to appear livefuwamoco did beg for votes btw
>>91594874It's more that we won for forcing everybody to notice Selen was gone and making so much noise that Niji HAD to do something to stop us.
>>91586200>>91586357This is not the first time Phase wastes a bunch of money for good PR only to get cucked, last time it happened at Offkai.
Reya is basically Hololite with how much she works for them, she even thanked Hololive with her winning speech.She's also a win for Dota2 fags since she's Sheepo and doesn't hide the fact
>>91593503>Twitch numbers
>>91595657Idol Corp literally stopped existing except as another of Braves 8 million shitters and Phase paid actual money
>>91595310Unironically it's because the awards aren't professional enough given how mainstream hololive is in Japan nowThey'll show up for the Geoff Keighley Awards because that has a huge budget and corporate backing so you know nobody's going to flash their tits or give an acceptance speech full of slurs within 10 seconds of a hololive talent being on screen
>>91597074as much as I want to go "oh brave bad rawr" I really, really like how well they support the v4mirai girls with 3D and Dr. Nova in particular's 3D model is fucking gorgeous, almost never clips, and she can do a lot of fun streams with her home3D
>>91586200>Mythos (Rising Org)Fucking Mythos of all corpos won that one?
>>91597824That one really is weird.You'd think that would've been PixelLink or something. I thought they were doing well but I don't think they were brought up even once as a cameo.
>>91586357Kek, Fishman probably heard the BF4 metal pipe sound irl when they ran out of nominations.Niji... lol, lmao even.
>>91586200Genuine question.Did any of the Nijis truly deserve any of the awards but didn't get it?, I don't watch them so I can't tell if their corpo's abysmal reputation fucked them up regardless of what they did.
>>91586357>Phase Connect (-$50,000)HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>91586200>Phaseman, tough luck, kek
>>91587250Then tell your oshi to be better than Holo, cope and seethe! BAU BAU!
>>91597916Kuzuha might've earned FPS vtuber over Doki. I hear he does a lot of stuff in FPS and is pretty entertaining doing it. He's also obscenely popular in Japan. Thankfully, his army of teenage girls had no idea this thing existed and stayed away so we can laugh at it. As for the NijiEN? Fuck no. The only people they had that would qualify for any of them were Selen and Pomu. I think they tried to sneak Ike into some nomination but he barely got a handwaved mention.
>>91588220Fishaman's Oshi is Marine, you out-of-the-loop swine
>>91598072The awareness of the JP scene amongst whoever was picking the nominees was clearly very low, like "googled it and based things on the first result which was a reddit post from 2020" levels
>>91586357>Phase Connect (-$50,000)Thanks for paying Phasenogs
>>91598229apparently the nominees were by popular vote, with individual people being capped at 2 categories max according to Doki (fanbase, organization, events, etc. being loopholes). So I guess a bunch of people either voted kuzuha, or there's so few popular fps vtubers that he was in just due to lack of options.The same thing happened with the "best vtuber event." Originally it was "best non-concert vtuber event" but they retroactively added concerts since fucking nobody except for Filian herself and Doki does anything that would qualify as an event in the western sphere, hence a goddamn subathon and a rule-bending concert being added in.
>>91598101Marine lost.
>>91598430The public could submit nominees for consideration, then the organisers chose who amongst those actually got nominated + chose the clips to represent themThe clips have the same problem, like Suisei was nominated for best music and rather than picking a song from her over 4 albums worth of originals, they chose a group cover she was in
>>91586200I heard this event was sponsored by some porn site or something? Which one was it? I know twitch is a softcore porn site but I don't think that's the one people were talking about.
Justchads, we won 2 awards!!
>>91593511the funny part is her big event that broke all twitch records (wooooah) lost to a fucking GTA server
>>91593802nobody cares what swarmcucks feel
>>91586200Why did you split indies and ex-Nijis?
>>91598430>apparently the nominees were by popular voteThey were not.
>>91599413Losing to a big Hololive event when she didn't even care about the award show is neither funny nor surprising.
>>91586200I thought we already had an award show?Did another happen because because we didn't like IM rigging the system once again?
>>91586200Literally who fucking cares about some westoid made up awards show? Are you "people" really putting any stock into this? It was hosted by fucking Filian of all people.
>>91600376Hololive won so yes we DO care about it.
>>91586200>>Phase Connect (-$50,000)KWABOTY
>>91586200thanks
>>91593802swarmfags continue being the worst posters on this boardthey’re sister tier insufferable
>>91604517I've seen at least one Vedal shipper who's admitted to being a former fan of Luxiem and in other places there seem to be a lot of Chinese women fawning over Vedal - so some actually are sisters bizarrely.
>>91589177i don't see NIji taking anything, oh wait, who was the one that claims they're the biggest?
>>91586200>Ex-NijisanjiShall we see an Ex-Holo category next year?
>>91586200
>>91587250If they're not willing to stream the awards, let alone record acceptance speeches, they shouldn't be allowed, period.
Were people expecting Phase to win anything? Actually paying for visibility was the smartest thing they could do. They're completely irrelevant in the EN vtubing landscape: youtube is all Hololive, and twitch is VShojo and indies. Small corpos don't even register for most people.
>>91593204It was a great event.
>>91588921none(except maybe small local ones that are relevant maybe to themselves but that's a stretch)
>>91599413To be fair, that GTA server was one of hololive's most kino events. It had tons of great moments.
>>91607022Uh oh, melty.
>>91586200I don't get it. If you want to know who the most popular vtubers are, why not just look at /#/ and save yourself 3.5 hours
I wish they moved camera less and did less cuts on Lia's dance. It's the only important thing there.
>>91600376Better luck next year phasekek.
>>91593138Who?
>>91590459The people voted for this, not judges who don't even know who Kizuna Ai is. I love democracy.
I think Katie should have won Music Vtuber just for being something different than the generic JPop every vtuber does and we all know Fauna didn't really deserve her wins in the categories she won in, but otherwise the winners were fine in my eyes.
>>91599413Well the subathon ran 24 hours a day for a month and the only thing anyone ever mentions about it is that a group of people bought a shit ton of gift subs.
>>91595657>from kawaii(soon to be dissolvedThey ended two weeks ago anonhttps://youtu.be/YaPfsO2PPX0https://youtu.be/YkoGTFmEeQA
>>91608264>Fauna didn't really deserve her winsASMR sure, she would agree herself. Zatsu she absolutely deserve the win, everyone loves her yapping. She should have been nominated for funniest vtuber instead of ASMR.
>>91586357the phase concert was good. those girls won.pippa lost tho so that is always fun to see.
>>91608264I don't think there's anything wrong with Fauna winning the Just Chatting award and I voted for Michi there. The only reason that her win in the asmr category feels undeserved is that she didn't really do much in that regard this year, not her actual ability.
>>91586200>Zentreyabased
>>91608986She's finally officially the best gamer
>>91597382didn't fuwomoca say something last year? I remember them pushing to win in that category last year.
>>91595673Yeah this is my gripe. There needs to be some kind of eligibility requirement in this category. Seems shit for the other nominees, whom I assume put the work in only for Fauna to win by doing basically nothing.
>>91586200Hololive always wins, as usual.
>>91607064phase won something or other last year, I remember pippa got an award.
>>91609622it was bullshit when dooby3d was nominated for best tech tuber and league of her own on the back of literally 3 streams.it still pretty much has to be a hololive, vshojo, ligger sweep because otherwise the credibility of the award show would be nothing. they just have to get more creative with award categories. assume vtuber of the year and stuff will go to big numbers, but maybe Miss Vtuber should be soft locked to exclude holo and vshojo ok you guys are the big time, well you are not eligible for the awards meant for smaller vtubers.
>>91609120>she
>>91609761>I remember pippa got an award.get your memory checked because no she didn't.
>mouse beats pekora, marine, kiara over 2 years at the same show by popular vote>fuwamoco finally gets the big win against herNeat. I knew fuwamoco had a big year, but it's interesting to see where it took them.
>>91609986Ah yeah you're right lol. I was thinking she won most chaotic last year. I guess cause they were showing clips of her or something.
>>91586200Congrats to the cute dogs from a mousebro.
It;s funny leading up to this people dismissed the Vtuber Awards as some small thing.Sure enough nearly every general live posted the event and watched it and now will shitpost about it until the next who drama dropsthen you have vtubers who were nominated brought to tears because they didn't win. these awards have something here it is being accepted as the biggest industry event of the year. holo talents love it and wish they could show up, but cover smartly keeps the wall up because they don't need to show up and can after the fact flex they have award winning talent as chosen by the industry
>>91609986He is partially right. Phase did win an award. they won Rising Vtuber Agency
I will never understand how people can still be dumb enough to take anything seriously just because it's called an "award."I just came up with The Shit Awards. All of you won in every category. You may now spend the next 5 years talking about this fact.
>>91610285And then you have vtubers who were nominated and that won who have not said a single thing, reinforcing the fact that these "awards" are just some small thing.
>>91610285Yeah very smart decision to not allow talents attend these eventsTruly shows how much Hololive Inc. LOVES the vtuber community
Pekora stopping her Game Awards stream because she lost deflection thread
>>91610285>holo talents love it and wish they could show upWell, people spammed gg's chat about it when she won one and her response was basically "who cares".The problem with these is the vtuber scene is essentially split between Twitch and YouTube. Hololive is still massive enough to get votes in this, but it was pretty obvious that the nominees made no sense because the people picking them don't watch enough of the YouTube vtubers to know them.
>>91610285It's not small, but people are still suspicious of it because, let's be honest, it's run by fucking Filian.I could see it gaining prestige over the years if they keep at it and don't fuck up. They should also try to look for bigger sponsors (not for money, but to look more legitimate), but it's going to be difficult with the lewdtuber category.
>>91610285I would not be shocked if you saw hololive show up to next year's show. They didn't show up to the first couple Offkai's because it was not a proven thing and what if it was small and beneath the hololive brand? However, they showed up this year and will likely show up next year too because Offkai became legit enough.if they could just drop the fansly sponsorship from it i think that would get them let the girls attend if they wanted.
>>91610552Next year the IDF will sponsor the event and all of Hololive will show up
>>91610552the fact Pippa has not won either year in categories she could believably win and nobody would argue it tells you it is not THAT rigged. Filian & Pippa have been riding eachother's dicks hard the 13 months.
>>91610445Pekora had something later to do, she always said she was going to watch it until her award and leave.But then you would need to watch streams and understand Japanese to know that.
>>91610634Yeah, I never implied it was rigged. Most of the results made sense.But Filian being the figurehead is still an issue, because it's Filian and despite her popularity she's a yabmaster.
>>91610552If they're going to include JP vtubers (and it is farcical to call something "the vtuber awards" if you don't) they need organisers that are more familiar with the Japanese scene and YouTube in general. A lot of the nominees were really baffling and they chose awful clips to represent them across the board.
>>91610820Filian being the figurehead is a good thing because she would probably win a lot of the awards otherwise because her audience is 12 year olds who will vote spam
>>91610576yeah i don’t expect Fansly to sponsor it next yearFilian said she had to fight tooth and nail to keep the lewdtuber award in this time
I think if they made the award show EN eligible only it would help improve itAlso them having musical performances this year was a giant step in the right direction to make the show more legitimate and watchable. Instead of it being just a glorified clipshow, they actually had some substance this year.
>>91610860>she would probably win a lot of the awards otherwiselmao
>>91610376Mouse's reaction was pretty much exactly that https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2327069546?t=1h14m3s>Chat says congratulations because she won>She assumes it's people talking about The Streamer Awards that happened a week ago and says thank you
>>91610992That's just her unironically hating Filian
>>91610988She would probably easily win funniest by virtue of just being the biggest name and having the largest voting block of literal children
>>91610926>I think if they made the award show EN eligible only it would help improve itAnd a good way to make it completely irrelevant.
>>91611065Naw she legitimately didn't know, she'd been recording stuff for most of the day and then had a sponsor to do as well.
>>91611065Why wouldnt she, for the supposed "Queen of Vtubers" to get regularly beaten by a retard who cant even buy her model, its gotta sting a little bit
>>91611082Homie, no one gives a fuck about Japan. That's why they never win.
>>91611123uh oh snacker melty.
>>91610992She actually acknowledged filian's awards on both years. No JP is ever going to that much.
>>91610992She knows what she was doing. Vtubers are all terminally online and yet she didn't know about it?Come on.
>>91610926I think if your vtuber award thing excludes Japan, which is the vast majority of the market for the vtubers, you'd have to call it something other than "the vtuber awards"It would be like burgers putting on a soccer tournament and calling it The Football Cup
>>91610992>Congratulations?>Oh about the streamer awards? Yeah it's been a wild week. Thank you.>The vtuber awards?>I won?>What did I win?>Zen and Mel won too?>Oh shit I gotta message Mel and Zen!
>>91611141lmao, what the fuck are you talking about? Where do you think vtubing comes from, the Easter Island?
>>91611261Yeah you're right. I retract my suggestion
>>91611261>Japan, which is the vast majority of the market for the vtubersEN has had the biggest share of the market since 2022.
>>91611292Vtubing is dominated by the west.
>>91611261>vast majority of the market for the vtubersVast majority of the vtuber market is english indies. Easily by number. When you consider there's some some 60,000+ vtubers at this point, most of them are not the JP corpos, those are just the bigger ones.
>>91611370kek, you're not even trying anymoreprobably should get your trolling licence revoked
you have to understand the ego of all these women. they care and acting smug and dismissive is their move sometimes, especially when it was with twitch clique shit involved.It is simple political shit. Zen did a watch along yesterday and when the Phase 3D show came up, he switched off to show a tailer of Geega's 3D announcement. That was a calculated move. There are petty political games.
>>91610860>her audience is 12 year olds who will vote spamSwarm are children who spam in general (look at the Twitch chat at any point during the awards vod even when Neuro wasn't up for an award - there were even multiple other chatters complaining about it) AND they have the power of the Chinese on their side - yet they still didn't win more than one award. So I'm not sure vote spamming is too much of an issue.
>>91611455If Japan is so relevant why don't they win any awards?
>>91611292You know Power Rangers become more popular than Super Sentai in the west? Even in the country of japan the original MMPR season was so big it was dubbed back into japanese and aired with better ratings than Zyuranger in it's home country. Much like how Gura become a bigger face of hololive than anyone else in the company.
>>91611480You know Zen was gassing up Phase all night, and Mel was too.
>>91611332Anon, hololive and nijisanji alone average a combined quarter million viewers peak every dayThere aren't that many people watching the vtuber tag on twitch even if you include the people that aren't vtubers but are using it as a joke
>>91611565And? EN indies make up majority of the market.
>>91611480Because Geega had just posted it on twitter.I also think it's funny you use Zen as an example for>the ego of all these womenand then imply he's a guy. At least stick to one narrative, phasetard.
>>91611561?
>>91611592I don't think this is even true if you mean by quantity of vtubers with 0-5 viewers and not actual popularity
>>91611565Now look at how many viewers live in japan. It's very easy to understand how something can be incredibly popular and then get who'd by someone else because they've never heard of it in their part of the internet. It applies very well to vtubing, and a lot of things popular in any particular country, that doesn't get as big outside of that country. It's like selling out an 80k stadium as a national rockstar, but then you go to another country and that country doesn't give a fuck.
>>91611639They were saying nice things about them? Saying they were great, etc? That's what gassing up means. That they work hard and so on.
>>91611680But the topic is the popularity of vtubers, which are mainstream in Japan and niche everywhere elseIt is an objective fact that there are more people watching JP vtubers than EN ones, the data is readily available
>>91611480mel literally watch lia's part and said it was the cutest thing ever
>>91611661Do you actually thinkg all 60k vtubers out there belong MOSTLY to corpos bro?
>>91611757That's not what is being discussed, the question is who are the majority of vtuber viewers watchingIf you take hololive, nijisanji, and vspo's Japanese members they have more viewers combined than the entire rest of the vtuber market in all languages
>>91611731If all your viewers are centralized within the country of japan and every other vtuber fan is in the west, then, as I said before, japan doesn't matter.See the awards, see who's popular and known everywhere else. You are trying to look at raw number data and it's melting your brain cause you don't understand that it's irrelevant here when centralized to a single place.
>>91611661>>91611841EN indies with less than 1k viewers have more combined viewers than all japanese vtubers combines.
>>91611848I'm just saying it would be retarded to call them "the vtuber awards" if they excluded the objectively most popular vtubers anonLike I said, it would be like having a US-exclusive soccer tournament and calling it The Soccer World Cup, I'm sure it'd be fun to watch and valid in its own right but everyone would know the name was incredibly retarded
>>91611895>the objectively most popular vtubersJP are not objectively the most popular because they are ONLY popular in ONE country.
>>91611841I'm glad you brought up vspo because it's a perfect example. Nobody even knows who the fuck they are. And despite Niji continuing to do numbers, they've completely fallen off in the west as well.
>>91586200>-$50kfindom?
>>91611926This is like saying the NFL isn't popular because 95% of the viewers are burgers
>>91611972I mean, as much as I love to shit on the UK with superbowl memes, statistically soccer kills it. In every single country except the US.
>>91611841Who the fuck cares? Do you understand this is a small bubble in the whole market? The fact that only a fraction of the population can watch them gives them a huge handicap. And 99% of them can't even say hello in English for example.
>Host an award show to be like the big industries>Holo-sweepTake the hint and stay in your hovelsThis ENTIRE industry is for hololive only not pathetic leeches like you!
>>91609537nope
>>91611972No, we're saying they're not as popular outside their home turf with the rest of the world as some other chuubas are. That's why they never win any popularity awards.
>>91612100Don't speak for me. I'm saying holo JP are objectively less popular than EN vtubers.
I voted for Hololive in every category.
>>91612089Well they said something this year lol.https://x.com/fuwamoco_en/status/1868255722582278488
>>91611972No, this is like saying that nobody cares in the rest of the globe about NFL even if it is hugely successful domestically. The rest of the world knows about it but don't watch it
>>91612155No, it's like you run an American football team in Sweden and are insisting that nobody cares about American ones
>>91612132I mean objectively they are because your counting the entire fucking earth bro, I agree.
>>91612150>they dedicated a stream to the Vtuber Awards...but i thought holos didn't care....
>>91612155Except nobody knows about JP vtubers.
>crime does paywhat did Filian mean by that
>>91586357the halftime show was fire
>>91612228Well that's my whole point. The rest of the world knows JP vtubers are huge but don't know any of them and don't care. Just like NFL, they have seen it but don't give a damn about Superbowl or the teams
Reminder that "Japan's #1 vtuber" lost to Ironmouse.That's how little Japanese vtubers matter.
>>91612357>The rest of the world knows JP vtubers are hugeThey actually don't though. Nobody knows anything about JP vtubers. That's how irrelevant they are.I'm pretty sure most people believe that holo JP is a tiny sideshow that does nothing compared to holo EN.
>>91586200how long till vshojou pips hololive?
>>91586200how to improve>ditch any falseeyed association>ditch the fansly sponsorship>expand on the concert idea. it was a real highlight. maybe also do a music performance between every award?
>>91612872False just performed the closest thing dramatubing has ever done to genuine investigative journalism. He earned his right to be there.
>>91611392This is like that would you rather fight 60000 ant-sized bears or one bear-sized ant.
>>91610926So henya gets cut out from it?
>>91614466English indies are THE vtuber community, not japanese corpos.
>>91611592Oh, you’re retarded
>>91612383JP's #1 vtuber literally just beat mouse for vtuber of the year, retard.
>>91615072Nope.
>>91586421Big
>>91586357Good summary
