@PaulMarcoratic We stan Dulai-Chai in this house and I will throw hands, feet, and bricks at anyone that dares to speak ill of her. She is a gem and no besmirchment of her will be tolerated!
If you read this, I'd be happy if you read the whole thing.
Hololive English came into being just about 6 years ago...wow, how time flies.
We've done and accomplished so much together. There were a lot of mountains we climbed, back when there were just 5 of us. And then our numbers grew! We were 6, then 11...eventually 20 at one point. But the thing that never changed, was that we struggled together as a group and pushed through those times, together. There were so many hellos and goodbyes, and we shared all of them as one entity.
As the very first talent to ever debut from that group, it's an odd feeling saying a final goodbye to the name "Hololive English." And things will look different on the outside, for sure. They may even BE different, but I choose to view it in a positive way, as that is all I can do. In my heart, we are always Hololive English- the same English speaking group that came together to challenge the boundaries beyond Japan, to promote a space where creators like us could thrive!! I think we did a really great job of that. And not just HoloEN; our friends in HoloID as well are to be included in that sentiment.
But from here on out, now is the beginning of a new journey where we can push past the barriers of language and become even closer with our JP and ID friends as one whole "Hololive." Regardless of what words we speak. This is my greatest hope! The mission to spread Hololive globally does not end here at all. It continues, with great force, even!! I think we'll just do it in a more unified way. And I'd love to communicate even further with JP dead beats as well- so many new friends and faces, waiting to be met, even now!!
The main takeaway, however, is this: I will always look out for our international members, without exception. If we are to be joined by more someday, I will treat them as not only Hololive, but will look after them the same was as I have EN. Even if they are not called that. That's just how I'm doing things!!!
I will stay positive and continue to smile as I race to achieve my ultimate goals, with the same friends I've always stood beside!! Thank you, Hololive!! Thank you, dead beats!!
An exciting future together yet awaits, I just know it.

If I may get sentimental for a minute here...
I know I've gotten the opportunity to see countless dreams come true in my life and my career. I've done work for so many different IPs I love with all my heart, honors I never thought I'd see through in my life. But this one is a little different, because I don't love any IP more than this one.
Gurren Lagann changed my life about 19 years ago, when I was a very lost and disturbed kid trying to make it through just the simple act of growing up. But it was there for me in my dark moments, and the message this compact and yet perfectly complete series left me with fundamentally altered the way that I look at life, chasing success, and daring to go past your limits and fight to become a "you" that you only could have dreamed of. A "you" that you never thought you could be. It's the story of the impossible dream of a two friends that goes on to become the shared dream of a future for humanity- evolving beyond what is reasonable and beyond what is possible, through what can only be described as boundless hope and belief in the potential of humankind- spiral energy, our passion and the strength of our souls.
And somehow, maybe through the sheer power of the universal will (to be dramatic about it), I was fated to meet Liz and sing this song with her. I'm glad I waited until the time was perfectly right.
To get a chance to OFFICIALLY work on this cover thanks to AniplexUSA and also my fantastic kouhai Liz, this means more to me than I could ever describe with words. So, I hope that by listening to the passion we put into this song, those feelings will come through to you. This meant more to me than you know.
Not only that, but Taku Iwasaki-san's work has been a part of my life since childhood. I'm just so glad.
I hope you dead beats can see the reason why I am the way that I am, the ambitious and ceaseless mori who aims to surpass every single version of herself, even as seconds tick by. I want to become a "me" even greater than the greatest I can be. Always aiming to be more than I am, because that's what this series taught me when I had absolutely no belief in myself.
And look at all the dreams that came true because of it.
@fuwamoco_en Just remember the OBS Advanced Audio settings for game captures can be set to "Monitor Off" so that OBS doesn't feed that audio channel back to you computer - just out to your stream. That might help stop the VOIP feedback from in-game
@moricalliope@fuwamoco_en Still don't have FWMC 5*s after playing daily... and that 4* Mori didn't show up until just last night during my last pull. Methinks my Holodori luck mirrors y'all's...
@moricalliope Dude, escape while you can ๐ Currently living in an outdoor oven here in AZ and *wish* I could be dealing with some normal humid heat instead. Save yourself!
@ShamiaLive I believe in you and your ability to learn and master new skills! You've got this, Shamia! I can't wait to see the end result when it finally starts behaving for you ๐
@ShamiaLive Hope you're staying safe and that it really was all an accident! Updates are appreciated, but the most important thing is you and the Tenshi dogs are safe
@LadVT_ A dark orchestral version of Dead Beats plays during the Skeleton Rush phase of the fight while Mori sits back and commands "Dead Beats, lock it down!"
@ShamiaLive Super happy that everything went well! Take your time recovering and don't worry - we'll still be here when you get back in the saddle. That said, I hope you get well soon! ๐
