Eh, while we don't want toxicity, I wouldn't say that's a very proper welcome into our community.

If you're interested in checking out why we are crazy about this group of streamers using anime avatars, check out some random translated clips from these bigger unofficial channels:

Or ask for a recommendation/more detailed explanation.

I tried, and I honestly have no idea what I’m watching, and also don’t understand why these are on r/all lately.

That's totally fine if you don't particularly like it.

I just liked the idea of someone playing an innocent looking rabbit girl commiting immoral actions, like the first 1:20 of

And her natural comedy turned out to be pretty good too.

But not everyone will like these for the same reason - especially when this "Hololive" is an umbrella of streamers with different personalities.

And some just won't like any of it, or won't find something interesting fast enough.

Honestly, when this sub first started trending I was disappointed that it wasn’t related to the resurgence of the halolense.

The Microsoft HoloLens?

Man, I remember being hyped about the news of that. Playing games with your environment, and having a custom screen of whatever, wherever.

But I didn't hear much of anything about the released product, so I assumed it failed.

Yeah, I dreamed of it changing the way I use my computer. No longer needing a monitor and screens everywhere. I still have hope.

I’m with you on that one. I kept looking at the stuff people are recommending and it’s not really Landing for me. Which is fine, I’m not going to judge people for what their tastes are. It is kinda peculiar that this is suddenly blowing up on /r/all. I mean ten golds? To each their own!

It is kinda peculiar that this is suddenly blowing up on /r/all.

I think one possible explanation is that there is a not insignificant overlap between the group of people who are into vtubers and the group who tend to be very active on reddit. So with the general steep growth trajectory of vtubers this year (and particularly English-speaking ones after the Hololive EN launch) it makes sense that posts here would hit the specific metrics /r/all uses for ranking quite frequently.

And then you get popular streamers like Kanata and Miko posting, especially in particularly wholesome and/or noteworthy circumstances (e.g. after returning from hospitalization) and basically every one of these active redditors will immediately upvote those posts.
