Hello there fellow nerds :)

I really like the game series but Holostars and Bettel need the show of support, so I voted for him. “But why/how does this generic anime boy twink need more support than indie characters?” New eyes by keeping Better in the running for the Holostars hopefully means better metrics for the Holostars, so the actor behind Bettel & his Holostars coworkers have a better chance keep puppeteering the anime men they were hired to puppet which are designed by Cover/HoloProductions. Fan’s hope is that by showing the company there is fan interest the company doesn’t downsize the English Holostar Branch like they already did for the Japan Holostar Branch, or (absolute worse case scenario) shutdown the male branch of Cover’s vtubing project under HoloProductions (as the audition page which use to exist pre downsizing announcement of the JP Branch is no longer around) and fans have to most likely see some of these characters “Graduate”. For those not in the vtuber sphere Graduations means characters/personas get retired up to a farm in the skies. This is especially common for Corpo Vtubers like Bettel and his coworkers who get hired to puppet a character designed my Art Mamas and 3D modeled by Papas (terms can interchange per pronoun preference but I usually see them used as Character Art Maker-Mama and 3D riggers for character models used for mocaping the talents’ movements called Papas.) with very few exceptions. So if the company shuts down and retires Holostars fans would likely have to say goodbye to their Blorbo.

Fun stuff for people curious at Holostars/Vtubers: -Jurard T Rexford and Kureiji Ollie playing through Monster Con, they are known as loud personalities and Jurard's old voice was very boisterous so loudness warning for the vod. They are great entertainers though so enjoy the 3h 12 minutes of gameplay. -Jesse and Dodger interviewing Ollie and Jurard. Their first interview with a HoloPro Talent was Ollie, but this interview is more relevant to the Holostars. I highly recommend watching the Ollie interview though. -3rd Clip, back to Bettel, Recent story of how he and his roomates fought off a hoard of Yellowjacket Wasps during covid era lockdown -Bettel trying the period simulator, while Flayon (his team mate/group mate/generation mate; red haired guy who's theme is a mech pilor) is there with him for a collab. (side note on this clip: The Holostars all trying the period simulator was a whole trend, there are a lot of the guys who did it, but the streams and clips are on youtube.)

-About a year old at this point but a clip of the group/team/generation of Holostars English Bettel is part off (Holostars Tempus: Vanguard) talking about some of the dance lessons they went through to be able to showcase their 3D capabilities by having a pole dancing contest (link to that specific stream is in this linked clip's description) -Clip showcasing Flayon who's virtual puppet looks like a twink but can bench press* his co-workers. Random but I just want people to see Flayon's Gap Moe/Cuteness Gap.

don't interact with corporate tumblr accounts

yes even to dunk on them. i don't care if you have the sickest burn of the century lined up, don't even give them the time of day

No special reason. That’s just the way I’m supposed to be and being genuinely yourself feels really good.

ok sure this is a sad scene and all but like

Mark:

See, Mark always bailed on Amber and as someone who was unaware of him being a superhero, she was probably hurt and felt unimportant but gave him the benefit of the doubt and gave him a lot of chances. And then she finds out about him being a superhero, and I agree, she wasn't the most mature when she yelled at Mark during the cyborg attack at the university, while she probably knew he was fighting the cyborg BUT people have irrational emotions all the fucking time? This happens in real life too. She was probably both hurt about him not trusting her (I'm not saying Mark should have told her about his identity but I'm talking from her perspective) and him bailing on her.

But from Mark's point of view, this is probably his first real relationship? And he not only had to deal with making it work in that sense but he also had to work on his relationship while keeping his true identity from her. And I mean, it's obvious he wanted to make it work and be there with her. But he should've realised he couldn't make it work, not with him bailing on her all the time. So, he had two options- telling her about his identity or breaking up with her. And he eventually did decide, but he made this decision after so much went down. He told her when she drew out the final card and that in her perspective, just adds onto the fact that she's unimportant to him.

So, basically I believe they're both in the wrong but also, they're both justified in how things went down.
