sora is a woman after my own heart. I once joined a watermelon eating contest when I was 6 years old, not because I wanted to win, but rather because I would get to eat a bunch of watermelon for free. I DID win, though, and the prize was MORE watermelon. I feel like Sora or Okayu would do something similar.
@@therealpr1vate590 I feel like Botan would just bing chilling with Sora as if she was just another homie tbh. Idk if that's the case, but I can see that happen
Can you blame any Hololive member for feeling that way? Sora started it all. She’s the original. There are those who have more subscribers. More well known. Gets more Superchats. But without Sora, they wouldn’t be anything of that. Respect well deserved. Honored well earned.
Perhaps, years ago, Sora was looking at Kizuna Ai's existence the same way her juniors look at her now. It's been years since then and now she's one of the legends and pillars of the industry.
People don’t realize that as Hololive progresses and gains more idols, they’re also gaining fan girls. In a year or two we’re going to start to see new gens Fangirl over Lui, Gura, Calli, Botan, and it’s gonna be just like them fanning over Sora, or Towa lol.
@@EndoftheBeginning17 Even the old gen gets it, we keep learning about Shubaru's harem growth every day - more and more girls mentioning her as the OG pulling them into the rabbit hole years ago 🦆
I mean HoloX is a bunch of Holomem fangirls lol. Laplus is a Kenzoku, Koyori was caught in 4k using a Miko x Koyori phone wallpaper, Lui said she was a Senchou fan, Chloe is a Shion fangirl, and Iroha is a Hoshiyomi, even bowing to Suisei when they were together for an official collab promoting the HoloFes bluray iirc. Even before HoloX tho, some of the Holomem were already fans of their senpai. Gura seems to like Aqua and Shion, Kiara loves Pekora, Reine spoke about being a Senchou fan too iirc, Anya is a Fubuki fan, and Ollie... Is fangirling personified.
Imagine 10 years from now, explaining to your kids how one day a Japanese girl decided to stream to 13 people, and that's why anime girls now rule the world
Lui: I'm worried I might say something inappropriate around you Sora-senpai Sora: That's okay, I said "mtherfcker" once before. *Somewhere in the distance, a certain dragon sneezes
That’s why I love Sora. She’s so goddamn humble and yet look at the empire she started. I think the sheer reverence people have for her is a bit stressful for her but she carries it with grace.
i mean like when you really think about it, she is basically the most important member of Hololive. Everything started from her and without her, Hololive won't be able to survive and thrive this much. Her actions instigated the VTuber boom, she's basically in the same importance as Yagoo himself.
Also, we recently found out that it was Sora's dream all along that pushed for the existence of Hololive. In highschool Sora told her best friend, A-chan, that she wanted to be an idol. A-chan literally dropped everything to make that true, and here we are.
@@Aeikon Aaaand if you think about it, even A-chan got (after some time) her own 2D and 3D model, also she got a lot of love and support from the fans, I mean, she deserves it after all.
Instigated Hololive?, yes....Vtuber boom?...not really, she's designed to compete with Kizuna Ai since day 1, era where Vtubing is expensive, that she able to do it by being a member of Yagoo's idol group using Cover corp tech Nijisanji 1st gen is the group that instigated 2nd Vtuber boom, because their new format (2D avatar streaming) where a smart phone and a custom face tracking app is what they needed to stream as Vtuber, it makes Vtubing affordable for most people, and such format was initially rejected by Vtuber fans because they're not the same as Kizuna Ai
@@electronresonator8882 nijisanji started the 2D yes, but to be honest hololive was the one who attracted kaigais hence vtuber boom, im sure there are some people who got here by watching nijisanji, but it was hololive who made a big bang and with the right time too (pandemic) fubuki memes, korone memes, miko's GTA etc all the way to myth the peak vtuber boom
@@aredes12 It's Sora and A Chan who suggested to Yagoo the idea of making virtual idols. He wouldn't even think about it without them. Sora isn't first, but Hololive wouldn't exist without her
@@aredes12 Before Sora there where only 2 VTuber. And VTubing wasnt even a thing then. So you can give Sora some Credits that VTuber got some recognition in the Internet.
sora-chan deserved all the respect from other mem. she started it hard. from a fucking scratch. for someone who followed her from 13 viewers under hololive banner untill this golden age hololive. i got goosebump everytimes i hear sora voice. all i can hear is determination, hardwork and heart of steel in her character! trully goddess and bless for being exist! she has special spot in my heart, like watching your kid turn and grow to be a legend! even she started to doubt herself, crying want to quit because of her mental pressure. i am glad she didn't quit. thanks for being exist goddess!!
This is one of those interactions where the interpretation makes a real difference to how it comes across. I’ve seen different versions which are much more fawning and others where it’s more jokey. I don’t think any are actually bad interpretations, it’s just interesting to see how differently language can be taken.
When you make it next to the people you admire, that seems like a life goal checked off. Can't blame Lui, she has this and with Marine, it must feel like Christmas every day.
Poor Sora, everyone is so stiff and nervous around her! I'm glad this is some real tangible progress to her being able to just talk and laugh and have fun with her many kouhai though
"She is the One that starts it all! She is the One that saves us all! Even when all is lost, look up to the sky and remember "Sora-chan" our goddess.". Anyway, I wish I have a Sora Saurus Plushie please, I need it so much.
That's true if sora don't want to become vtuber idol and a-chan didn't help sora chan then hololive dont exist ofc we are grateful to Yagoo he gamble or more like invest in sora chan
Sora-chan had her first thirteen viewers and from it, she never failed to inspire with her confidence, motivation and power. YAGOO can see that sky as bright as the day...!
Even though she wants to be like just the other girls, Sora van never rid herself of her goddess status. I mean cmon, how could she? Evem if you try to be friends with her, its always in the back of your mind, she is THE Sora. Completely understand how Lui must feel 🤣
1:09 that phrase ~tte nan da is always hilarious to hear in that kind of tone, Sui-chan had a similar response when talking to Hananoki Maru, because she addressed her as 'Suisei-sama'
Without Vocaloids, the idea of virtual entertainers like Kizuna AI (who addressed Miku as her senpai) would not have existed. And without Kizuna AI, the idea of VTubers would not have existed. And lastly, without Sora, the rest of the generations would not have existed. But more importantly, without YAGOO, Hololive would not have existed. We have all of them here to thank.
@@hanakuso1999 Let’s see the timeline. Cover Corp. was founded in 2016. Sora debuted in 7th September, 2017. NIJISANJI was founded in February 2018 though AnyColor Inc. was founded in 2nd May, 2017 before Sora’s debut. Additionally, Tsukino Mito debuted in 7th February, 2018. So yeah. That’s why I didn’t included NIJISANJI although NIJISANJI is the biggest VTuber agency in Japan.
I haven't seen or heard anyone make the comparison yet but sora senpais journey is a lot like Simon's in gurren lagann and A chan is her kamina. The community loves to fully embrace memes as lore as so does corporate! We need a lengthy animation and tons of fan art of her as Simon because she started at the very bottom like him and pushed through the difficulty and doubts to reach the top. I think she still has a long way to go and that's the fucking tragedy of this story so far but it's not over yet! Believe in the A chan that believes in you!
Yups without yagoo, a-chan and sora sama maybe hololive won't exist and thank for all hardwork from all member from gen jp, en and id, holoive became this big and loved by so many people
I feel really bad for her, yeah shes Sora the origin story of holo, one of the og pioneers of vtubing, and def deserves a ton of respect (and way more subs ngl) . But it must be so frustrating to try to hang out and goof around with friends when they are watching everything they say and are so afraid of being themselves around you 😕
It's much better now than it was before though, back when she felt like she couldn't be with any juniors or play games with them. They're a lot less reverent to her nowadays, but it's not easy for everyone to just stop.
The difference is that even in Gen0, Nothing would’ve happened if A-chan and Sora never approached Yagoo with their new idea. Also none of us fans would’ve existed except maybe the 13 Knights of Sora who I swear would’ve found their way to follow her anyways. Edit: I typed all of this to show that Sora is the Dai Senpai of Hololive even among Gen0 but forgot to actually Say it. Gomenasorry
Gen 0 isn't all chronologically the first though. Its a "Gen" that consists of those who debuted by themselves, not first. Only Sora and Roboco came before Gen 1 FYI.
Miko debuted at the same time as Gamers (between Mio and Okayu, I think), so in gen0 she's actually quite the kouhai. I think only AZKi is younger (Suisei debuted almost in the same time as Robocco, even if she just came to Cover way after)... and the maybe is in the "even AZKi might be older" side.
With Sora, it’s much trickier given she was one of the people that started it all, alongside A-chan and the rest of the Cover staff. In fact, Sora even predates the Hololive name itself, which back then was an attempt for a phone app, but later repurposed to be the group’s name once they started to recruit more talent.
I'm glad to see Sora interact with other Holomems more. The more it happens the more she'll become known as friend to all of them instead of THE Sora senpai goddess. She will ultimately descend into the degenerate pool with the rest of holomems and thus shattering Yagoos dream indefinitely lol
She's already implied that when she did a shitpost review with Coco. She flat out said she doesn't believe herself to be seiso and that she is down for anything (shenanigans). i doubt you'll see her be a degenerate so much as a good friend to them and down for a little pranking (which she is kown to do from time to time - a la Minecraft)
While Watame is my Oshi, I see 3 specific members of Hololive as the most important, even in the VTuber sphere as a whole. 1. Is Sora herself. Lui isn’t wrong when she says that none of Hololive would exist without Sora. Hololive was her dream from the start and she put in the work to make it happen. Hololive was a completely untested concept that nobody knew would work, Virtual Idols. And it did, to absolutely massive success. And yet? If Sora had just given up before It really took off, none of Hololive would be around. So many friends would never have met. So many lives would be completely different. 2. The legendary Dragon of Hololive, Kiryu Coco. She basically brought VTubing to the West, and successfully proved to everyone that we very much enjoy what Hololive has to offer, and are more than willing to shill out the big bucks, making it a very profitable area of business. And this ties in to 3. Gawr Gura herself. The biggest VTuber to ever exist, the one who really put Hololive and VTubers as a whole on the radar. Just a small little gremlin, and yet she’s made such a massive impact on so many lives. But again, without Sora, Kaichou wouldn’t exist. Gura wouldn’t exist. Even Watame wouldn’t exist. I’m not saying they would be dead or anything without Sora, but we wouldn’t know of them as the same people. Hell, some, like Lui, would never be known, since she wouldn’t have become a VTuber without Sora’s hard work and dedication. It’s sometimes very…surreal, to think that one woman’s dream changed millions of lives, some might even say for the better. And I respect the hell out of Sora for that. While I find it very hard not to think of Sora as a goddess like figure, I understand that she doesn’t like being put on a pedestal and so I try not to, because it’s the least I can do for someone who, inadvertently, saved my life.
I know what you mean about saving your life. I've gotten more joy from these waifus than any other women In a time when everything had gone wrong in my life and I felt completely alone, these girls made me want to continue.
@@OC.TINYYY As much as I love Coco yeah I agree miko first brought western audience, those GTA streams are very important for hololive's growth. Coco opened the path for holoEN, this made holopro think that there is an untapped audience for an english speaking stream. Then you have Miko, Marine and Pekora who generate the most liveviewers by far. Fubuki also played an important part with recruiting and helping a lot of the members.
Bruhh, they praised her way too much lol. Although Sora deserves all the praise, they should really realize she just wants to be treated normally and have normal interactions/relationships with her kouhais without them needing to be super cautious.
I hope that these collabs will help normalise Sora a bit for everyone else. Everyone treats her like the holy goddess (that she is) but I bet Sora must feel alienated sometimes because of it.
It's funny how Sora sees herself as nothing too special but she is the cornerstone that is Hololive, imagine if she decided to give up while she had only those 10 watchers (in which one was an ELITE) who knows if Hololive would have inspired so many girls and in the future boys to join in.
From my view every kouhai just look like they got the goddess haki from Sora-chan LOL. One person that can make herself normally with Sora-chan that I know is only AZKi-chan.

But it must be so frustrating to try to hang out and goof around with friends when they are watching everything they say and are so afraid of being themselves around you 😕
It's much better now than it was before though, back when she felt like she couldn't be with any juniors or play games with them.
They're a lot less reverent to her nowadays, but it's not easy for everyone to just stop.
Did you guys notice......Lui didn't try to flirt at ALL?
The question is.... did Choco, she's the more degenerate of the two.

Yeah, but Lui-nee is the one rotating girls every week
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan.
I hope one day they make a Sora-chan statue in Cover Corp's headquarters.
Even gods can be down to earth
wait miko is gen 0 too right? the contrast 😂
thats the entire Gen0....
The difference is that even in Gen0, Nothing would’ve happened if A-chan and Sora never approached Yagoo with their new idea.
Also none of us fans would’ve existed except maybe the 13 Knights of Sora who I swear would’ve found their way to follow her anyways.
Edit: I typed all of this to show that Sora is the Dai Senpai of Hololive even among Gen0 but forgot to actually Say it. Gomenasorry
Gen 0 isn't all chronologically the first though. Its a "Gen" that consists of those who debuted by themselves, not first. Only Sora and Roboco came before Gen 1 FYI.
Miko debuted at the same time as Gamers (between Mio and Okayu, I think), so in gen0 she's actually quite the kouhai.
I think only AZKi is younger (Suisei debuted almost in the same time as Robocco, even if she just came to Cover way after)... and the maybe is in the "even AZKi might be older" side.
With Sora, it’s much trickier given she was one of the people that started it all, alongside A-chan and the rest of the Cover staff.
In fact, Sora even predates the Hololive name itself, which back then was an attempt for a phone app, but later repurposed to be the group’s name once they started to recruit more talent.
sora radiates too much seisoness
1:57 subtitles is SUS👀👀
1:58
That really sus
Even Lui, the one that made 5th and 4th gen looks like she is the senpai, can´t do de same againts Sora
Lui-nun nun
Love seeing these
I'm glad to see Sora interact with other Holomems more. The more it happens the more she'll become known as friend to all of them instead of THE Sora senpai goddess. She will ultimately descend into the degenerate pool with the rest of holomems and thus shattering Yagoos dream indefinitely lol
She's already implied that when she did a shitpost review with Coco. She flat out said she doesn't believe herself to be seiso and that she is down for anything (shenanigans). i doubt you'll see her be a degenerate so much as a good friend to them and down for a little pranking (which she is kown to do from time to time - a la Minecraft)
While Watame is my Oshi, I see 3 specific members of Hololive as the most important, even in the VTuber sphere as a whole. 1. Is Sora herself. Lui isn’t wrong when she says that none of Hololive would exist without Sora. Hololive was her dream from the start and she put in the work to make it happen. Hololive was a completely untested concept that nobody knew would work, Virtual Idols. And it did, to absolutely massive success. And yet? If Sora had just given up before It really took off, none of Hololive would be around. So many friends would never have met. So many lives would be completely different. 2. The legendary Dragon of Hololive, Kiryu Coco. She basically brought VTubing to the West, and successfully proved to everyone that we very much enjoy what Hololive has to offer, and are more than willing to shill out the big bucks, making it a very profitable area of business. And this ties in to 3. Gawr Gura herself. The biggest VTuber to ever exist, the one who really put Hololive and VTubers as a whole on the radar. Just a small little gremlin, and yet she’s made such a massive impact on so many lives. But again, without Sora, Kaichou wouldn’t exist. Gura wouldn’t exist. Even Watame wouldn’t exist. I’m not saying they would be dead or anything without Sora, but we wouldn’t know of them as the same people. Hell, some, like Lui, would never be known, since she wouldn’t have become a VTuber without Sora’s hard work and dedication. It’s sometimes very…surreal, to think that one woman’s dream changed millions of lives, some might even say for the better. And I respect the hell out of Sora for that. While I find it very hard not to think of Sora as a goddess like figure, I understand that she doesn’t like being put on a pedestal and so I try not to, because it’s the least I can do for someone who, inadvertently, saved my life.
Eh, I'd argue Miko brought the west to vtubing as much as Coco. She's why me & countless others are here.
I would still be extremely depressed, and probably worse, so I am thankful for her persevering in the beginning.
I know what you mean about saving your life. I've gotten more joy from these waifus than any other women
In a time when everything had gone wrong in my life and I felt completely alone, these girls made me want to continue.
@@OC.TINYYY As much as I love Coco yeah I agree miko first brought western audience, those GTA streams are very important for hololive's growth. Coco opened the path for holoEN, this made holopro think that there is an untapped audience for an english speaking stream. Then you have Miko, Marine and Pekora who generate the most liveviewers by far.
Fubuki also played an important part with recruiting and helping a lot of the members.
Sora-sama-chan
Bruhh, they praised her way too much lol. Although Sora deserves all the praise, they should really realize she just wants to be treated normally and have normal interactions/relationships with her kouhais without them needing to be super cautious.
oh, it's just for fun :)
I hope that these collabs will help normalise Sora a bit for everyone else. Everyone treats her like the holy goddess (that she is) but I bet Sora must feel alienated sometimes because of it.
Because SHES SORA GODDESS!!!!
It's funny how Sora sees herself as nothing too special but she is the cornerstone that is Hololive, imagine if she decided to give up while she had only those 10 watchers (in which one was an ELITE) who knows if Hololive would have inspired so many girls and in the future boys to join in.
Wait, Miko was one of the 13 knights??? 😲
@@Xemphas Yup, she was one of them
We Vtubers are all sons and daughters of Hololive and Hololive are all sons and daughters of Sora 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Food session of what? ☠️
From my view every kouhai just look like they got the goddess haki from Sora-chan LOL.
One person that can make herself normally with Sora-chan that I know is only AZKi-chan.
whats the dish called after gyoza? i cant make it out
