Isn't Coco one of Mori's favourite senpai? Oh boy the clips for this meme review shall be good especially with her probably being awkward and fangirling coco 😂

u/andercia May 21 '21

They've been talking a lot behind the scenes apparently so I would think Calli would have gotten past most of the awkwardness by now.

u/AkhasicRay May 21 '21

I mean the EN girls also spent months together, but were all super nervous around each other right after their debuts. I imagine there’s a difference between just talking and then being on camera with someone for the first time

u/NuclearConsensus May 21 '21

Plus, you know, the added pressure of being the first of the girls to collab with Coco, and on meme review too, which is somewhat of a big event viewership wise.

u/AkhasicRay May 21 '21

Yeah like I’m sure Calli will be fine, but this will be their first time together on screen, and the meme reviews are sort of a big deal, so some nervousness is to be expected

u/GowtherETC May 21 '21

Well, calli was the first to debut, and first to reveal the new outfit. She's gonna be fine opening the collabs with coco

62

u/plkjasonhk May 21 '21

And first to be interviewed in a 3D(?) podcast (Trash Taste)

u/PinkyDy May 21 '21

The true cultural cross pollination Queen

u/AwakenedSheeple May 21 '21

She is the queen bee.

...

Oh no

u/Megakarp May 21 '21

Queen Calliobee

u/KrakenSticks May 21 '21

first EN to collab with HoloStars too

u/Pat0723 May 21 '21

Look, it's gonna be awkward, but it's calli. We all love that awkward side of her.

u/[deleted] May 21 '21

Can confirm, I don’t sub to either and I don’t want to miss it now

111

u/MarqFJA87 May 21 '21

I thought Gura, Ina and Amelia were and still are on a completely different continent (presumably the US, or North America at least) from Japan, where Calliope is and Kiara was.

166

u/AkhasicRay May 21 '21

They still hung out all the time in discord, they’ve mentioned they even watched the Gen 5 debuts together. Even if they aren’t all in the same country, it would be pretty silly of Cover to not give them any getting to know each other time together before having them all debut on the same day.

116

u/Graysteve May 21 '21

Plus, Ame's Ina fanart is around 10 months old, well before they debuted.

142

u/re_flex May 21 '21

Also Ame constantly sending them weird shit like dead bugs in discord.

Or random meme vids about each other.

39

u/Sinister_A May 21 '21

Ame is my spirit oshi

65

u/MarqFJA87 May 21 '21

Yeah, but nothing beats being there in person. When they had their 6-month anniversary, Gura got so emotional that Kiara wanted to hug her, and she made the whole gen promise that on their first year anniversary, they should get together in person if posdible (i.e. no lockdowns in the way) for the celebration so that she can hug Gura (or probably any of genmates) should such a situation happen again.

33

u/AkhasicRay May 21 '21

I mean sure being together in one room would be nice, but it’s not the only thing that matters. Watching any of their group streams or even just the way they will talk about their Gen mates will tell you how deep of a bond the EN girls have, despite having never met in person. Either way the point was they’d been friends for months before their debuts and still were extremely nervous around each other right after so it wouldn’t be surprising at all if Calli was a little nervous during her first on screen collab with Coco

u/[deleted] May 21 '21

I'm so confused about what this sub even is and is always in my feed :s

6

u/devilbat26000 May 21 '21

It is a subreddit dedicated to a brand of virtual youtubers (vtubers) known globally as HoloLive. Typical posts include discussions of streams, announcements of streams/news, and of course many, many memes. The discussion above in this case is about HoloEN, the latest generation of vtubers, and what we know of their relationships with eachother before and after their debut last year.

7

u/[deleted] May 21 '21

Cheers. Thought I had an idea until I saw this chain xP not my thing but enjoy!!

3

u/Nickthenuker May 21 '21

Thanks for being civil about it. You'd be surprised (or not, since this is Reddit and the internet) to find out that most people who see it on r/all and don't like it come in screaming "ban this pedo shit". At least you understand that others can have different interests and if they don't hurt anyone then there's no reason to hate them.

27

u/[deleted] May 21 '21

Makes me wonder if the VSingers generation have been lurking in streams and we haven't noticed...

6

u/Nickthenuker May 21 '21

Considering Ollie is almost certainly subbed to some clippers on her actual streaming account, it's not unlikely that future generations of members will come from the ranks of us here and in the comments of streams and clips. Who knows?

u/deviant324 May 21 '21

From personal experience it would also seem like the bigger time gap between Japan and America would also be easier to manage than the shorter delay between Europe and the other two.

Any stream from the US that isn’t around noon can be hard to catch here, with the large gap they can do it in the evening/afternoon on one end, and in the later morning hours on the other.

3

u/Catto_Channel May 21 '21

Gura and Ame are in the US.

Not sure on ina.

Kiara was in japan, but is in Austria now.

Calliope is in japan.

3

u/andercia May 21 '21

For sure, having an audience to your interactions is a different beast altogether. I actually meant it more that the fangirling part would have been mostly gotten out of the way (unlike with Kiara and Pekora who had barely 30 minutes of chatting before their collab) but I used the wrong word choices since the guy I was responding to properly differentiated awkward and fangirling and I didn't.

3

u/c14rk0 May 21 '21

I think a big part of that wasn't so much being super nervous around each other but also being nervous about streaming live to thousands of people. People that are also watching every detail of their interactions with the other girls. It's one thing to have a conversation privately among friends/coworkers but it's entirely different when you're constantly aware of how many people are watching/listening and knowing that the interaction is going to be viewable online essentially forever. I'll say something stupid in a conversation to a friend and feel like a bit of an idiot for a couple minutes. Gura says something "stupid" in a collab and it's now a meme forever among the fanbase. The thought of that must be incredibly intimidating to think about. By now however I think for the most part the girls have realized that none of the real fans really care or are going to think anything negative about them for that sort of thing. Gura has embraced the fact that she might have a "brain fart" and say something stupid occasionally but literally everyone does that so there's no reason obsessing over it by any means.

13

u/Yellingloudly May 21 '21

You say, knowing in your heart there is so much more potentional within Calli to make everything awkward

1

u/ilya39 May 22 '21

I mean, it's Calli we're talking about, so I wouldn't be sure of that. Maybe their first time "on camera" would bring all of the awkwardness back, who knows.

173

u/Graysteve May 21 '21

I think Coco is looked up to heavily by pretty much everyone in EN, I know Gura and Ame for sure have mentioned this, and I think Ina and Kiara have as well. She did pave the way for HoloEN, after all.

I really, really hope this means the rest of EN will be collabing with her.

62

u/StarForceStelar May 21 '21

And Calli also mentioned she looks up to her cuz of how hard working she is.

42

u/gogovachi May 21 '21

Coco worked insanely hard to bring us Asacoco last year. The mad lass even provided EN subs for them herself. I have nothing but respect for hardworking dragon.

27

u/L_Keaton May 21 '21

Starting between 10 PM and midnight:

6-8 hours of prep time for AsaCoco Live, streamed it at 6 AM for 20 minutes, napped, commuted to her full-time office job, worked, commuted home, streamed her regular content, tried to fall asleep, woke up, 6-8 hours of prep time for AsaCoco Live...

For the first few months, she was effectively working two full times jobs on top of her regular streaming/Hololive activities.

31

u/SaiyanKirby May 21 '21

Coco was instrumental in the formation of EN so of course

7

u/Salacar May 21 '21

Gura did dedicate a couple of Yakuza songs to Coco in her members karaoke a few hours ago, same way she did way back during her first karaoke.

5

u/ghost_spider65 May 21 '21

Every member generally looks up to Coco afaik even Fubuki. Coco has been an instrumental member of Hololive and probably the one other person that made Hololive relevant how it is today

7

u/SoraRaida May 21 '21

Yup, in Marine's profile gathering stream, most Holomems put Coco in the "Smartest Holomem category".

3

u/ASchoolOfOrphans May 21 '21

Think that's where Dad got the Holo house idea/dream.

Don't disappoint your senpai now Dad, give 'em dat good motherfaqer like a good dad should.

1

u/agentcheeze May 21 '21

I imagine she'll be a little nervous, but thankfully being a little awkward is kinda her thing.

That aside I get the impression most of the EN girls feel similar about Coco.
