On the topic of Kris S... I'd rather see her be BFFs with Deep Impact, much like they were IRL post-retirement.

or at least Meteor Shower and have both Neicha and Meteor being bffs and laughing at Kaichou's gags. Gawd I miss Nature and Skilfing.

    guy should just give the go to use his horses' name so we can have Kris S vs KingKame memes about Cesario

    It's almost as if you can't own anything famous in the present day without being demanded by the masses to release all control of the name usage rights.

    I was thinking of the Stalin meme since I have no retort to this :DogeKek:

    I mean, the game gives so much hype to the horses themselves, the jockeys, the RL trainers and even some of the keiba support staff but the owners barely get anything official apart from the royalties for name usage when they're probably the 3rd most important part of each horse story after the horse and the jockey.

    Even if any objection was as simple as "I'm not a fan of the whole musume concept" I think it's the owner's call to make and not anyone's to hold it against them.

    Yes it was deleted this is all the info I could find. I even visited the original Twitter but to no avail it was deleted a long time ago

    I see, in the future it'd help to specify that in the source field, sourceless images will have a hard time getting through the queue otherwise which is a shame when the art itself is good.

    Kronii got a new "commander" outfit. Both IPs have had collabs with World of Warships, though Kronii didn't participate in that one to my knowledge.

    Oh, how soon we forget the long, complicated relationship between Hololive and Azur Lane:

    HL and AL did a collab event way back in November 2019 called Looking Glass of Fact and Fiction. To give you an idea of how long ago this was, there were only three generations of JP at the time (first, second, and Gamers), and Azur Lane's Global server had only opened six months prior (I was playing AL at the time, and the event was the first time I had heard about Hololive).

    The most famous Holomem associated with it was Marine, who streamed the games fairly often and shared her opinions on the various characters once she rolled them (mostly on how lewd their outfits were, because it's Marine, after all). In September 2020, she appeared during the livestream celebrating the 3rd Anniversary of AL's Japanese server, hoping for a second collab between HL and AL that she could participate in.

    Since then, Hololive has refrained from streaming Azur Lane, or any games published in China, including Arknights and Genshin Impact, after an incident in November 2020 where Haachama and Coco pissed off Chinese nationalists by pointing out the number of viewers they had in Taiwan. Cover had to exit from the Chinese market, and dissolve their Hololive China branch, with all six of its members graduating in the same month.

    Especially ironic, because a quite a few Chinese fans, and a couple members of Hololive CN, spoke both English and Japanese, and were a big part of making Hololive better known in the English-speaking world before EN's debut.

    So, TL;DR, it's still the CCP's fault, albeit indirectly?

    ngl I kinda saw this coming... I didn't see either of the two coming until some sort of an anniversary (or late October when each won their third leg of their respective Triple Crowns) and that Journey would be added to the game first before her sister... I just didn't think she'd come so soon :BlobCatSip:

    Her Calli is kinda mid, but that Kiara is impressive.

    While she doesn't capture the actual sound of Calli's voice as accurately, I feel like she nails the way they both speak (within the limitations of the pre-established dialog), plus it's impressive how her vocal range lets her match the very different pitches of both voices.
