>>55120756please get some help. you never will know fauna, just like you will never know your favorite music artist. the illusion that you're close to her because of the medium is something you need to be aware of. i will say there is a certain amount of "closeness" that is possible, simply because of the realtime reaction and chatting, but that alone is simply not enough, and never will be enough to equate to friendship. enough can be gathered to form a position on whether or not to be a fan of any given vtuber, such as a horrible attitude, but "we can't be friends, i'm just an entertainer" is simply not what you should be mad about.
>>55126959wada definitely helped, but i think she tickled a certain kind of itch that i connect to how western men are infatuated with asian women. it's not all of it, but i think it is a decent part. what's ironic is that all the kpop that comes out automatically ropes her into the same category of "she's korean eye candy, even though i only see her avatar." we could default to how booba is a magnet, but that's simply not enough. a large part, i think, is her attitude toward the world. i think a lot of kronies find themselves reflected in kronii, including the deeply deeply incorrect understanding on her part about existential dread, as well as her attitude of "fuck you, i'm right because yeah," which is quite tellingly at odds with what she said in her philosophy stream about how it's difficult to know what is right.
>>55136554not to knock on you at all, but you didn't see it because you weren't in a position to be critical of her. i don't mean "OH MY GOD WHY DIDN'T YOU PLAY THE GAME MY WAY," but more like "hm...that might have been a misstep in how you handled the situation." it's a good sign to back away quickly when the fanbase does not allow for constructive criticism.
>>55142030>>55142234i agree. but i hope it doesn't end in tears. i fear that she will have some stumbles regarding cementing her identity as nerissa of gen3, not "nerissa who is a kfp who made it into hololive." it's clear that she has anxieties and personal idiosyncrasies (who doesn't?), but i think she has been quite healthy in her presentation of herself, minus the weeeewooooo, which i do find hilarious at times.
