A big middle finger to kurosanji with this one. She's saying while they may own the rights to the Selen character she IS Selen and there is nothing they can do that will ever change that.
A long time ago, there was a joke discord edit of a blonde dragon with green eyes. It was based on her time playing monopoly. I won't claim I made the edit because it was actually a team effort based on fun times of "what if she looked like this" in the server. Apologies for the melancholy and nostalgia and possibly dragging the mood down. I just hope someone has that image out there
Shots fired aside, what a top tier model and rig. Impressively expressive, but not overanimated. And can we talk about how the rapidly extendable/retractable neck is a t-bag function? SHE'S T-BAGGING THEM.
She's got the Western look to her, so just give her a double barreled, sawn-off shotgun and let the lore be that she "borrowed" it from some Space marine while he's napping 😂
It's not even a recent thing. Nijisanji has really failed to update their rigging software b/c they were WAY ahead at one point & thought no one would catch up. Look at someone like Flayon from Holostars, who debuted around somewhere between xsoleil & krisis. Even though krisis is more recent than his wave, his model is more animated & expressive than krisis'. Of course, his papa is from Iron Vertex, but I think my point still remains that niji just figured they'd always be top dog & refused to innovate as a result
See its funny because there are indie vtubers with much better rigging than Nijisanji vtubers. Most of them are stuck with one default facial expression or maybe they can go from :D to :O and that's it. Knowing that the company takes most of the revenue from the livers I'm not surprised they'd cut corners to keep more money so they don't give a lot of budget for rigging
There is no "rigging update" V2.0 /V 3.0 were marketing lies agencies made. When live2d vtubing started taking off ppl were still experimenting with how to get around the engine, and when ppl got better agencies started marketing it as a new tech just to show an illusion of progress, indies start with a more fluid model all the time
Doki in this artstyle feels so natural. I first saw it on twitter and thought nothing of it until i remembered her current model, it gave me massive whiplash
Those scars on her arm is a grim reminder of what she went through. It shows how strong she is and be able to pull through and continue to move forward.
The scars probably have multiple meanings. The serious traumas she went through IRL, her work as a bounty hunter, AND Selen's dragon arm had those exact same scars along with several others.
@@enigmaodell6806 Naniwazuni aka Missouri Tatsuki was responsible for extending Selen's neck in the vtuber wiki over a few weeks before getting banned. Doki's neck toggle is a reference to that incident.
This was very emotional to me especially when I think about the things she went through on her past. It is not that easy to face your past especially reclaiming and embracing it the way she does. I commend and applaud her for doing these things. To my fellow dragoons!! We have reclaimed everything and we are sooooo back!!
We've come full circle. She's as beautiful as the day we lost her, especially the long neck. And it's not long looooong neckkk xD Love her head feather, looks like her owl friend. Flat Doki... Now artists gonna have field day *"No don't screenshot that. I've seen those"* what did she see I wonder xD
Behind her trademark mischievously laugh 😂, i can already tell she is beyond relief, happy, and extremely grateful for everyone/support on her side online/IRL, as well as her own perseverance in reaching where she is here now. To her and the new/rebirth of Dokibird 😁 🍻🍸🍅😂😂
As a Bark Knight, I'm sad we'll get less of the og, but I'm glad for the dragoons to get what they're most used to. You all deserve it for sticking with her through all of this, and she deserves it to relieve of all the pain she went through. All I want is for her to be happy. And also for the art streams to come back. PLEASE BRING BA-
And just imagine, her and the new case is what Kurosanji is going to be staring at most of the convention. Wishing they could've taken all their mess back. Oh well. Their complete loss. 😂
DOKI : you took everything from me.. AnyC***r : I don't even know you.. DOKI : WELL GUESS WHAT~!! Dragoons : WE ARE SOOOO.. BACK!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOI~!! Also my friend : Oh.. a new *CHOCOBO* Vtuber..
Usually, don't see a lot of Utubers, but gosh, how far has this community go now .and the models too! look how the mouth moves so smoothly as she speaks, wow Glad to see her happy now
Took me forever to figure out she was talking about Mint's hairclip. VTubers are so unnecessarily vague about these sorts of things lol. Love the new model/rig, though Retro Doki will always be my favorite. Her older designs and their accompanying artwork are so great.
I'll never tire of Dokibird winning back something as a major W in direct or indirect defiance to you-know-who. Alongside Ironmouse, the story of Dokibird & her many ups and downs will forever be immortalised by 2024, *the year she rose up from the ashes of uncertainty & returned to Tomato Skinwalker.* This new model looks 10/10 & I'm so glad Doki went back to her model mama for such a great piece too. ❤😊
She upgraded from Epic (purple) to Legendary rarity. Good for her. Also, it's really wholesome that she chose the same artist for her new outfit because she wanted to do her right the second time around.
She got her friends back, she got her ign back, she got her fandom name back, and now she got her mama back! She keeps winning
"When you play a country song backwards"

Naniwazuni is forever immortalized in that neck lengthening feature lol
Nani got banned from the virtual youtubers wiki for making selen's neck longer pixel by pixel over a few weeks, right? I love that guy.
What a legend
It’s a gigachad move
I thought Nani was immortalized in a certain witches fan Discord stream.
@@nnnik3595 what did nani do in the stream???
Tomato with a hat? Top tier quality outfit. Oh and the skin suit I guess
I hope she will add the DokiCrow from VRChat😅
Plus it can go RBG mode now
Better than hololive
She does Bob proud.
A hat? Nah fam 2 hats
A big middle finger to kurosanji with this one. She's saying while they may own the rights to the Selen character she IS Selen and there is nothing they can do that will ever change that.
Even better, she is Doki.
another good thing is mama owns all her designs so they can't do jack without her saying i want all my designs back get new models
Me:(looking at Doki past and present).......it's the same picture
Chin’s a bit sharper, but yeah
Its ALL THE SAME PICTURE

Dude looking at it at first was fucking with me but i couldn't figure out why until it hit me
it's literally the same artist

Are we so back?

She's mentioned before that she laughs when she's anxious. This was a big moment for her and I'm glad it paid off.

Nothing can stop her AT ALL!
She's got the Western look to her, so just give her a double barreled, sawn-off shotgun and let the lore be that she "borrowed" it from some Space marine while he's napping 😂
The scars on the arm. Oof. Deep lore and it made me involuntarily wince. I'm so glad she's doing so much better now.
It's also a reference. Selen had scars like that on her dragon arm
Its a wonderful hybrid of classic Doki and... some other skinsuit.
Yes something familiar in there too, love to see it
Love how the designer of her previous model is back with her new skinsuit, I can imagine they are more than happy to work with Doki again
Kamame-sensei is so based
She honestly feels bouncier compared to her olden days
Oh look how much rigging has changed over such a short span of time
It's not even a recent thing. Nijisanji has really failed to update their rigging software b/c they were WAY ahead at one point & thought no one would catch up.

The only thing kuro-sanji had to do was not to f#ck with their talents, they had one thing on the "DON'T-DO" list.
Why does the drip go *SO HARD*

Fool! Obviously it's a reference to

I love how giddy and excited she seems about every feature.
If you slow the video down at 8:00 you can see the meme face she pulled
She is a fucking madlad she did a fusion with her Niji persona lol
1 word
*Perfection*
That model looks great and fits her personality so well.
And just imagine, her and the new case is what Kurosanji is going to be staring at most of the convention.
Wishing they could've taken all their mess back.
Oh well. Their complete loss. 😂
Wait, HYTE IS next to niji!
Even managed to sneak in a legally distinct reference to her old model's eyes.
Aimbot eye is genius lol
Doki in Fallout New Vegas: Everytime she walks around it plays "Jingle Jangle Jingle"
I LOVE HOW SHE HAS THE HAIR WINGIES LIKE IN THE OLD ONE BUT NOW SHE'S A FREE BIRD
DokiMama: we're getting your damn design back, I'll draw it myself
Man, that tracking feature is insane. Look how fluid that animation is. It's almost like you can see every little movement she makes.
4:24 It only just occurred to me that this might have in fact been a reference. I see what she did there. Quite cheeky!
Damn niji was holding her back SOOO much
She looks more ikemen now fr.. like a cheaky senpai who has an obsession on fps games and cowboys
Doki can't stop being the smugginess person in the earth, love her so much
