For me it's Watame, her fluffy and kind personality really hooked me and seeing how precious she is in 3D made me want to support her.

Subaru. I really love her voice and she's just precious. I like the fact that she sounds kinda like Goku 💀

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago

Subaru is great, love how she includes translated notes in her streams for the overseas fans.

On the EN side it was Sana… she sounded like someone I knew when I was younger and it was super comforting just listening to her talk.

After her graduation I hooked into Fauna. I’m not into ASMR, but her gaming streams are so good (she’s kind of like a Hololive Northern Lion if that makes sense). She’s so quick witted and so engaging.

On JP side it’s probably Haachama. I live in her back catalog though, watching old vods. The more I think about it, the harder it gets for me to pick. I have an unusual fondness for Roboco, Towa, Subaru, Nenechi, Botan… I’ll always make time to watch Luna play the electone… I don’t know. I like them all a lot.

The ID girls are great too, I love Kaela, but she’s so much of a time sink. Kobo’s collabs are hysterical.

For the boys it’s Izuru, Astel and Vesper. I loved Fuma debut era, his original rap verses were amazing and the Shanti cover was great, but I feel like his hasn’t leaned into it even though it’s clearly a standout skill.

I've been watching Northernlion since 2014 so when I heard that Fauna is also an avid watcher of him I knew that I would enjoy her streams.

My first Oshi was Sana, but now I support Ollie the most

Fauna. She's funny, she's a memer like there is no other. She also has that onee-san aura around her... I watch her every night to sleep, her voice is really soothing.

S+ choice my brother. 🌱

[–] nazuna 3 points 1 year ago

Oof, my condolences.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel like I have one for each branch.

Mumei for EN because she's just so funny and an incredible singer.
Zeta for ID because she's just wild.
Koyori for JP because she has an endless amount of determination

[–] nazuna 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see your preference in streamers is that of the "unhinged" variety.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

lmao i guess thats true. My oshi for Nijisanji is Pomu, so that really fits

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's Ina for me. I watched all of EN's debut and her dopey chill streams always put me in a better mood. I watch most of EN though.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago

I'm a takodachi as well, guess I just really like the chill girls since I also watch a lot of Fauna and she's basically the EN version of Watame.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bae and Fauna, probably because their streams times are the most convenient for me tbh. Not that I don't have reasons to love them but I'm pretty sure I could find something to love about any holomem I could consistently watch, and that just happens to be these two.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Great choices. Have you listened to Bae's EP yet? She's solidified herself as one of Hololives top singers with it IMO.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So good! Drown is my current favourite track. I actually foolishly ignored Bae's music for about a year before I discovered what I'd been missing out on.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago

Drown is so good, definitely my favorite after Psycho.

I'm a MASSIVE fan of IRyS! The way she's like a princess that was locked up in a tower with the only view of the outside world through anime and Manga has made the utmost unpredictable girl I've ever seen. She's a joy to watch while I work and her streams are long enough I could finish around the same time she does! (Either that or she just keeps going, the mad lass)

I also love how brave and persistent she is in horror games. And that she pays attention to the logs and other stuff that really completes the atmosphere. So her streams never feel like a cheap gimmick for easy screams. If anything, her YabaiRys "gimmick" is primarily what keeps you on your toes because you have no idea what comes out of that girl's mouth next!

To top all of this is the healthy relationship with Bae. To me, it makes me less worried about others being too parasocial about her like the other talents, because she's got her wife that we all root for.

Also, Till the End of Me is an absolutely amazing song!

[–] nazuna 3 points 1 year ago

IRyS needs to have a solo concert, her voice is just too good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

IRyS! She’s such a cute dork and I love her spoiled sweet ojou-sama vibes.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago

IRyS is so funny and goofy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean, Gura and Kronii forever. Something about both of them, the humour and timing of jokes just hits me perfectly. But ever since Gura got busy with holsummer and fell off streaming a bit (which is fine! Still love her) I started catching up on Fauna and Ina streams because they're very relaxed and easy to listen to. Agent FaunaSeven has been a wonderful experience as I catch up, especially.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago

Bet you enjoyed the recent Gura/Kronii powerwashing stream.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mumei. I share quite a few of her personality quirks, and of all the fantastic singing voices in Hololive, Mumei more than anyone else has the ability to make me just stop what I'm doing and listen.

On the JP side the one I follow most is Towa for similar reasons (holy shit her voice!), so you could imagine my excitement when Mumei sang Palette for the Connect the World concert.

[–] nazuna 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I could definitely imagine your excitement since I went crazy when Fauna sang Watame's sweet night, sweet time
