Catching up with the last two VODs, I think the streams were mostly fine except for a few things, and some of those things are emblematic of larger problems.
Let's start with the zatsudan stream.
I think Nade is getting a bit too close to the threads. She's been talking nonchalantly about schizos, schizophrenia, and meds. Same with autism with the previous stream. In the past she's mentioned ropium/roping, and one of the spaces (or could have been a stream) said "do a flip" unprompted. Not sure if she's aware that these things are not used as nonchalantly outside of /here/.
It looks like people shitting up the thread over her using twitch made her reassure people that she's going to be primarily youtube. The twtich baitposters lead to a Badger bringing thread problems to the stream (need more "this is bait pictures"), which I think is pretty bad. The threads shouldn't be her problem to take care of. I think bringing thread issues to the stream is pretty bad because it's bringing them to a public space in front of a bunch of people where some of them aren't in the threads. It then lead to her talking about drawing "this is bait" pictures for us, which should never be her responsibility to make. She should focus on her chuuba stuff, and we should be the ones taking care of the thread's health.
For the people that kept fearmongering over music and DMCA, people should read up on NexTone JASRAC. Nade should read it too. Here's some preliminary stuff I found.

A couple little things I noticed in chat:
-She has a new viewer that brought up both nuxtaku and sonichu.
-all but one of the major twitch detractors in chat seem to be newer viewers, a few of them are confirmed for coming from that youtuber's raid.
For the cooking Simulator stream I have a lot less to say.
This game really brought out the part of her that cares about neatness. Not doing twitter spaces any more is for the best if they could negatively affect her sleep. On a selfish note, it also means that myself and others that decided to drop spaces, and the people who couldn't catch them in the first place no longer have to feel like we're missing out on things. She says she wanted to end the stream and go to bed, but kept streaming for almost another hour. Getting distracted by chat and continuing to stream on is something she still has to work on. She brought up schizophrenia and posting things again. I wonder what her viewers who aren't in the threads think about this. The guy getting her to say an insult in a language that she doesn't know wasn't very cool. Hopefully Nade takes this as a learning opportunity and thinks twice before saying things the chat requests. Nade confirmed that her weight was less than 40kg which I found quite surprising. Even 40kg at her height is already considered underweight. She kinda just dropped it at the end, but she might have 2 streams on her day off, namely a guerrilla on youtube, and a test stream on twitch.
Now some general things I've been feeling for a while.
She was warned at the start to not be too close to /here/, but with the way she's incorporating /here/ lingo into her speech patterns and how she openly thread reads during her spaces it makes it seem like she doesn't take it that seriously anymore. Sometimes I feel like she is only one step removed from reading her thread live on stream. I find it sad to see, because I really enjoyed the early pre-livestream Nade, and I believed that she has what it takes to make it as an idol vtuber, and I thought the idea of the second debut was to give her a clean break and for her to put her all in to chasing her idol dream. I still can still see the NadeSpeaks Nade who would teach me about her interests, and make cute scenario videos. She was the one who captivated me in the first place with her cuteness. I'm also seeing another Nade who seems to be more interested in becoming a /here/chuuba that spouts off /vt/ and general 4chan memes. I followed her in the first place because I believed in her potential, but if she becomes a full on /here/chuuba I'll probably not stick around.
