Korone Explains the Reason Why She Can't Use Her Furball Form Very Often [Hololive]

[@chaseteel251]

So what I'm hearing is everyone needs an adorable animal form.

[@EkatariZeen]

I was thinking that the way to fix this is for all the members to get their own chibi/smol/furball form xD EDIT: Someone below had a great point though, not every member can afford to keep up with commissioned appearances and could be left behind others more financially successful hence the agreement.

[@fungers1514]

Ame made this happen for EN with her smol versions. That's worked out great like allowing them to do 3d collabs before they all had full 3d models. Just like Coco said, management keeps getting in the way of good innovations by artists and performers. Korone doesn't really see the problems with being literally owned, and that's pretty standard. It's not something to hold against her, but it is time for fans stop glorifying Yagoo just because he was born wealthy enough to own other people and their work.

[@Lemon_Inspector]

I thought she's gonna be like "the furball transformation takes a lot of energy, I have to charge it up for week."

[@TTTKC]

As a Japanese fan, I would like to say this. I don't think Korone can say it on the air, but I think this is also a consideration for the silly antis and those who are trying to create drama. When making it by an individual, it depends on the person's economic power, and the quality of the product can be compared. Therefore, for example, if Korone make a lot of things and other people don't make them, there will be people who will ask other members, "Aren't you going to make these?" Also, there will be people who will compare the products they have made and say, “That one is better.” Antis will probably say things like, "Korone is one of our management's favorites, so they have them make a lot of and put them on the air." Hololive has a lot of animosity from antis and some other fans, and this kind of thing always sticks around.

[@durian111]

Yup pretty much, you can even see they use irys to peddling their rrat when she already explain it months ago.

[@TTTKC]

@@durian111 For antis, IRyS would be a good target right now, unfortunately. If you're a fan, there are still areas where they can't say anything about it , but you can understand why it's delayed several things , and about re-design. It's troublesome not to give them a chance, but it's important.

Korone's reasoning for it is so Korone, not wanting others to feel left out, or like she has special treatment. She's so darn considerate and sweet! I feel like the solution is obvious though, we simply get the other Gamers Furball Forms! Imagine all four of them together... the chaos energy could rival that of the Walfie Smol Myths.

[@mrboobo3436]

I wonder if part of it is that Hololive owns all the models they produce and all Hololive streams\accounts. So this one form she made for herself creates issues in that Hololive doesn't own it but does own the stream. If there are issues that could create a huge mess.

[@vinicastro9292]

I think it's mostly because it isn't official art for Korone "brand", so they don't allow her to use it whenever she wants. Because Korone's appearance is the brand Korone. At least that's what I got from what she said. She has to use her official appearances.

[@gamrage]

I'm actually part of the Kedama branch. I love how adorable the art is.

Or Amano Pikamee's streams where she's been happily using her Isekai model, which she apparently paid like 5 figures for.

[@Philweasel]

Amelia is a somewhat different situation though, because her technical wizardry is somewhat of her niche within Hololive, and she uses her skills to the benefit of the community. It's very different to "I get lots of superchats and sponsorships, therefore I have all the models and cool stream assets".

[@vipertooth123]

@@97Multiphantom And in every one of said timelines she has 69,420 different forms!

[@TemjinZero]

I think EN has looser permissions, maybe because of the distance and level of direct support hololive can provide them. Its a way for the company to probably 'field test' new concepts and projects by letting EN or ID test them. Also given Ame's studio... I'm sure she might have more permission than anyone in EN to test things out because of how much she is supporting the others.

[@durian111]

To me this because she got commission, and found it unfair to be just for her to used it only. Unlike the en girl when they just make it themselve which entirely different.

[@ValkyrieTiara]

I think the implication here (and this is just my interpretation) is that it's less about a general feeling of unfairness or bitterness among members, and more about setting an unfair precedent and starting some kind of "character asset arms race". This is what I would be worried about if I were Hololive management. That is to say, if Korone spends her personal money to commission a special unique asset (such as an outfit or in this case character/model), and it gets really popular and she gains a ton of new viewers and stuff because of it, it incentivizes everyone else to do the same. The problem there is that it puts the talents who are already super popular (such as Korone) at a significant advantage over those who may have less disposable income, potentially forcing them to have to do things like choosing between spending money on assets to remain relevant vs those who are SUPPOSED to be allies, and things like paying rent and buying food. The purpose of vtuber agencies like Hololive is supposed to be built on a kind of "a rising tide raises all ships" philosophy, where pooled resources allow the success of some talents to increase the resources of others who might be less popular (or in a slump, on a break, etc), and also allowing girls with high popularity to also boost visibility of lesser known girls, whether through collabs or just increased brand recognition for Hololive as a whole. If girls start burning their own resources rather than drawing from the community pool, it becomes less "we're all in this together" and more "I got mine, time to get more, good luck with yours lol" I don't necessarily know if I agree with it in explicit terms. For example, Gura recently got her animated short and even though it cameoed other members it was very clearly a "Gura" thing. But I recognize the difference between what is functionally a piece of promotional media for the company that can further expand to involve other talents, and a personal asset that primarily exists to be individually promoted and marketed explicitly by a single talent. I do think it's a valid concern, and that they're not wrong to keep an eye on it.

[@jaisysymuri7462]

Knowing Korone, I think she was the one who told management that she was worried that issues may arise if she uses her furball model so often

[@Sweld549]

I was under the assumption the furball model was just one of those milestone gifts Cover gives their talents. Was that not the case?

[@fenrirlives2226]

Very well stated! As with all things, there's probably a lot of nuance to how that situation is best handled, but I'm glad the Talents are open to talking about it!

[@Olimar92]

Korone showing her canine attributes. So loyal and kind, and wants her whole pack to be happy. She wouldn't want anyone to feel sad or left out.

[@alexv3375]

That being the case, it'd be great to see Fubuki, Mio and Okayu gain Furball forms (fox, wolf and kitten) as well to match. Then they could all use them together!

[@KRNNT-]

In conclusion: It's so that she won't stand out in unnecessary way that has the potential to cause drama no matter how small the chance is. At least that's how I perceive it.

the way she phrased it, to me at least it seemed like the furball Korone was made exclusively for her. kinda like how membership only posts are for members only. maybe the artist have certain clauses behind the showing of the art etc. I may be way off though. but I don't think it's because 'other members" don't have it. we already have smol Ame and Kurokami.

[@Chamadzero]

@@Oruta-skk Well its kinda weird there. Because Fubuki made a poll asking if Kurokami should appear more often in weeks or stay as rare occasion. So that means they could use it more frequently if they wanted. Meaning that Korone is doing it because she cares for the other members.

[@benjiusofficial]

Honestly, that's the best thing about Korone's streams. You never know what you're gonna get. Some aspect is always changing, even when stuff is normal.

[@DagothXil]

"It's not really that complex of an issue" sure could've fooled me with her attempts to explain it

[@Sandman382]

As far as I can tell its not complex its just that she doesn't know if she can spread a talk with management around. Japan has social pressures not to stand out(which causes some to want to abide by that and others to do the exact opposite) and as a naturally shy person Korone leans towards not standing out, so she went to talk to management and make rules around the use of the model she commissioned. The rules as best she clarified there are functionally 'must contact them ahead of time and receive permission to use it during x stream/s' which they probably would give since they haven't seemed very uptight about them so far. The main thing holding back the use is her own sensibilities and how she tends to treat every outfit as something for rare occasions. Like she was saying she could just pull it out every week or something but then explicitly gave a holiday for when she'd do so. She just thinks of her costumes a bit differently.

[@BrokenAmoeba]

I wanna preface this by saying this is just my thought process on what she means, please correct me if i’m wrong. I think the reason why she doesn’t want to use her furball outfit too much is because it’s an extra outfit. I think by letting talents freely commission too many outfits will cause some members who possibly can’t afford to commission new outfits to be left behind. While the talents themselves likely won’t care (they love each other and love to see each other succeed). I think by having talents with more outfits than others might cause the fans to pressure other talents to commission a new outfit too. For example, let’s say talent A and talent B both have 3 official outfits and talent A commissions a 4th one, fans might pressure talent B who is in the same generation or cover corp to give talent B a new outfit too. I feel like by limiting the use of commissioned stuff, it just allows less drama. Idk this is just my thought process

[@dudewithtimestoppingability]

I would say that your reasoning is the perfect one. When furball ko'one came out, every one want to see , the rest of hololive gamers to also have this. By using it more often. Other fan base most likely want their oshi to have same furball form from korone. Make extra work when it mean as an her own design

[@mountz498]

That's pretty reasoning. It's kinda sad for someone that don't get to see the furball form but they try to make everything seems fair for every talents is a strong valid point.

I imagine it has to do with hololive's software. Since it's her personal model, it's not uploaded to the team's official software internally. So to use it requires her to use 3rd party software most likely which means she can't change on the spot.

[@thequestbro]

Probably the "fairness" issue is prevalent, but it's also an issue of branding. It's something the fans made, not something that comes from Holo-live themselves so it can be seen as a dilution of their brand.

I think that’s what she meant?

[@kocokan]

The biggest problem for Korone if she use her furball form too often is the branding that Hololive/Cover corp has painstakingly built. Imagine if she's doing an advert on product, and people goes "who?" because some people only saw her furball form

[@Feuerex]

You know, fair enough. Those of us who enjoy the furball, will treasure it and look forward to it, as it will be a rather rare occurence, and thus it will be that much more valuable to see it happening. Those of us who don't really like it and prefer regular Korone don't have to worry since they'll be getting exactly that most of the time anyway. Us fans don't lose or miss out on anything, and she gets to do things in a way that's comfortable for her and considerate towards others, I see that as a win for everyone.

[@Sweld549]

From what I understand the furball model must've been something she commissioned/paid for herself (versus an "official" one provided by Cover). So it makes sense that you wouldn't want talents to go TOO overboard with that kind of thing, because you wouldn't want the others feeling pressured into doing similar things on their own dime/feeling inferior if they weren't able to.

I guess it makes sense, everyone in the gen has to get an outfit in this style or Korone would stand out too much.

Wow she did not explain that literally at all for quite a long time, hahaha

[@Dall_]

0:30 damn, that would be me she knows o_o

I will wait for that cute, furry, smug face as long as it takes.

To summon Furball DOOG you must sacrifice 10 Yubi cards, half your LP, Korone card, and a Kuriboh.

I wonder how the ENs smol forms work then? I assume those are also self-requested & weren't provided by management like official outfits but they use them fairly often (at least Ina does) Edit: Actually after writing that comment & watching the clip again, I guess if all of Myth have them there is no hypothetical "that's not fair" situation
