The entire point of Nintendo's games as a whole for the most part is that they use their consoles' gimmicks to fully flesh out their first party games. Nintendo making multi-console releases would pretty much ruin the point of why they have consoles to begin with.

What exactly makes vtubers 'unwatchable' for you? Just wondering because I've heard different reasons from different people.

The capacities of the baseball stadiums are also vastly lower, and that average attendance number is dragged down massively by the Marlins and Athletics actively trying to lose, the latter because failure nepotism baby John Fisher is trying and failing to move the team to Vegas by any means necessary

The last time this happened was with the explicit approval of the Chinese government, like those two videos still don't truly convey how much sheer spam and harassment the 50 Cent Army was blasting all over Hololive's talents just because Coco said the word Taiwan

Copy paste of the first comment on that Reddit post:

"So I dont know everything either, but I can give a decent synopsis.

Haachama and Coco (streams 10ish hours apart on the same day) both brought up analytics on stream, and mentioned Taiwan as having a decent follower count. This angered many Chinese nationalist fans, who proceeded to cause problems on social media and BilliBilli, the Chinese equivalent to YouTube.

To save face and let the tension die down, Cover suspends Haachama and Coco for three weeks and leaves the issue there. Thing is, problems escalated as many Chinese viewers (from here on I'll just say "antis" to save space) continued making a fuss, with certain ones (including the people behind the Hololive Moments clip channel on YT) wanting Coco to receive more punishment. I dont know specifics, but I've heard some people think she did it purposefully to keep pressure off of Haachama, as her stream came after and she had been suspended before. However, this hate could also be because of how Coco is, IMO, the most American/Western centered member of HoloJP, due to her constant English, jokes about Hololive USA, and beliefs that she is from America. Point is, people are still pitching a fit.

Well, time goes on and both girls come back to overwhelming support, but we aren't out of the troubles yet. Cover states that they had rules against political comments on stream, but they had forgotten to enforce certain rules. In addition, antis are still spamming in both Haachama and Coco's chats, and Coco has issues with Anti-bots to this day, though they have decreased with time. In addition, word starts coming through that members of HoloCN are having problems with Cover, but most of this is unknown. Almost all HoloCN content was strictly on BilliBilli, with the major exception being Artia on Twitch. Girls twitters start getting hazy, Artia makes some comments about how things may change soon, but a lot of not knowing beyond that. Eventually, Artia and Civia have an impromptu stream where they talk about going independent, but they dont know a lot beyond that. Few days after, Cover sends out graduation announcement on Twitter and dates for each girl, essentially stating that HoloCN is going to be shut down completely. This seemed quick, and was described as sudden by most people who talked about it. As far as we know, some are still going to continue Vtubing, but likely with new models and no association with Hololive.

At this point in time, there's isn't a ton of concrete evidence on why Cover outright ended HoloCN. Most people believe that the issues with Chinese Antis was an on-going thing, though I'm not sure of that. Also, Cover seemed to have a growing interest in a Western audience, with translated clips, idols speaking English, and HoloEN all being wildly successful. This could be an extra reason to pull out of China, as many Chinese nationalists have negative opinions about the West regarding certain... disagreements. I'll leave that tangent there. To further this issue, people have dredged up evidence that shows several of the HoloCN talents have expressed nationalistic views online, with some even bringing up very anti-like opinions of Coco during her suspension. However, I cannot guarantee the validity of this, I have only seen vague references to it.

Hope this helps, and sorry if I missed any major points.

TLDR, Haachama and Coco talk about Taiwan, Chinese antis get triggered, Haachama and Coco suspended and return, Chinese antis continue to raise hell, Cover pulls out of China (possibly related possibly not), we get to current day."

Hololive Indonesia’s Kobo Kanaeru streamed to the Chinese streaming service Bilibili earlier. The reason this is notable is because Hololive and China have a horrid history because during the lockdowns, two of their vtubers went over their analytics and mentioned the word Taiwan and over the next year or so had massive harassment issues due to mainland Chinese people spamming and doxxing their talents. The situation is very complicated and I’ll link a video explaining it as that will take less time than me writing this out.

Gainax has been a corpse for a while, as infamously they were treating their animators pretty badly. Hideaki Anno created Studio Khara in order to be able to make the Rebuild of Evangelion movies, and Studio Trigger (the studio responsible for Kill la Kill, Little Witch Academia, Darling in the FRANXX and Promare among other things) was founded and is staffed by primarily former Gainax employees.

Panty and Stocking is one of the shows that Gainax made, and I'm assuming part of the reason the second season has been delayed for so long is because of these rights issues.

That’s because for a large part of people, the only section of the site that exists is Lolcows > Stinkditch.

Lolcows itself is fine, the reason I don’t like Nick Fuentes is because of his Kiwifarms thread, it’s just a lot of meh

That's on me, I'm never asking this question again or anything close to it, because I had no fucking idea that it would result in this. 55 comments in 2 hours is reserved for stuff like when people start sperging about lolis in the public eye

I literally put this up as a question and went to go do errands and it blew up this fast. Didn't mean to feed the trolls at all, I was just genuinely curious lol

The real last comment: I hope whoever their security is makes sure they don't get doxxed/revealed, because this is probably the one situation where someone would be most likely to be able to reveal who they are behind the avatars.

When was the first? I remember people used to say Alex Jones had a MTF fetish because allegedly he looked at Blaire White funny when they did some streams together a while back.

One more thing I forgot to mention is that Anime Expo is also this same weekend in LA, where there is going to be a heavy Holo presence.

Europe, Latin America and Australia.

In Europe, it's mainly that most of the big football/soccer teams (Real Madrid, PSG, Barcelona, etc) also have basketball teams. Luka Doncic came from Real Madrid's basketball team taking Europe by storm from the age of 16.

Hololive is the largest/most popular V-Tuber agency in the world, with their three most popular talents (by subscriber count and streams of their music) being the three in that picture: Usada Pekora, Hoshimachi Suisei and Gawr Gura. Those are the names of their avatars from left to right, in the Japanese style of 'last name, first name'.

Baseball, but yes absolutely. Baseball is to Japan as American Football is to the US.

Most of their biggest stadiums weren't even built for professional baseball, but for the national high school tournament, Koshien. The Hanshin Tigers, the professional team in NPB that does use that stadium is forced to do a road trip during the finals week because the Koshien Stadium is used for the finals.

While Nijisanji's out here floundering with an NBA collab and intentionally left out their biggest basketball fan, Hololive has decided to have their three biggest V-Tubers collaborate with the second biggest team (by fanbase) in MLB.
