There's just something about Watame that attracts these kind of wholesome superchats. My all time favorite is when Watame was reading a superchat of a father with the words of his 5 year old daughter and Watame trying to interact with that little girl. My second favorite would be that bittersweet superchat about a person with terrible short term memory and how they said that Watame's merch would serve as a memory capsule for them. I love the different clips of holomembers being funny and having fun, but what really made me stay in this rabbit hole are these wholesome moments.

[@nyannyan443]

Same. At first I got drawn by the memes and funny clips, but I got hooked in by their wholesomeness as I got to know them. Watame just has this comforting and pleasant aura around her. She bares her heart on her wrist and it just makes her feel more genuine and someone that you can confide in too. This makes me remember that one comment someone had on that Subaru and Sora clip where they talk about the difference between their chats/comments and how they kinda reflect the streamer.

[@calimantis]

Those who are in darkness are naturally attracted to the light. Watame has such a sweet and warm personality that it's easy to be drawn to her and to feel comfortable in her streams. She just has this natural aura about her that radiates comfort and happiness

While not at that degree i also was saved by Hololive, after losing my job and career because of a stupid mistake i was deep in dark thoughts, depressed and anxious at nights i would watch videos in bed until falling sleep to prevent the bad thoughts (first time in my life, usually i always slept without my phone in bed) until some clips got recommended; It was not much but it kept my mind busy and helped me through. A year has passed and i don't know where i would have been if not for this group of lovable dorks.

[@thejamesonthestreet]

I was in the similar situation last year. Thanks to the pandemic I was forced to resign from my job. Job hunting in the middle of pandemic is 100x worse than in the normal situation and I had a fight with my parents. Coupled with the quarantine, my mental health deteriorated and I suffer severe anxiety. But then I found Hololive clip (Kanatan's in my case) and then suddenly lots of clips were recommended. From there on, I was always happy watching Hololive and their clips and I was able to sort out myself again. Those girls do bring happiness and I was forever grateful. Honestly, the mental damage back then was so severe that I still have an episode, but knowing that I still have my hololive girls to make me smile really alleviate the stress.

[@RagnarokMasta]

I'm glad she is so warm, and I've said it once but I'll say it again, I hoped that while she cares about people she doesn't overburden herself with these harrowing stories and project too hard or stress herself out by trying too hard to please. But I seem to have worried for nothing, as she seemed to be able to see how wide the world is, and how people can be in a dark place as she was, but can pick themselves up with support on day. That is why I can't really ever give up on humanity, when I see so many reminders of people like Watame that seem to care genuinely that people in pain can make it through that dark patch.

[@kalinag1255]

I have a feeling Watame also went through some kind of crippling depression, and maybe even suicidal thoughts at some point in her life (Or it happened to a family member). She's always affected by these stories, it's not the first time she cries about it. At least nowadays she seems to be fine, and I hope it stays this way.

[@fubuichishinichi3742]

She does actually have that kind of point in her life. Iirc she was reading a SC from a fan that have suicidal thoughts and got also saved by watching watames stream, after reading the SC she shared her "similar" story that when shes small she made her grandma mad by saying "why have i been born?" "I dont want to be born" (or something along those line). That line for me is a suicidal thoughts for a kid. If you dig deeper in her background story, she does have a sad childhood. PS.

From Kaichou, I discovered the joys of Hololive and now watch all sorts of VTubers besides Hololive.

While I'm glad Watame is able to help people with her streams, people also need to understand vtubers are not therapists. Dumping depressing SCs on her isnt fair to her or the other viewers. People watch streams to have fun, and hearing about some of these can affect other viewers mental health as well. And in watame's case, if she gets these messages a lot, it could very well take a toll after a while and I doubt she'd have the heart to ask people to stop

[@Harkz0r]

I'll be honest, I had the same thought. Watame seems like a genuinely empathetic person, so I hope she doesn't feel too much pressure and responsibility due to things like this. It seems like she's glad to be able to help people to feel less alone, but it's true that I wonder about things from both points of view whenever this kind of thing comes about...

[@bananasenpai]

Yeah, lost my job earlier this year, and was in a pretty low place, but seeing all these girls work their asses off, despite it all, giving it everything they've got reminded me that it's not game over until you quit.

Thank God for these girls, and I hope I'll never find a way out of this rabbit hole, and that it goes on forever.

I do worry about that too. Watame seems to really like this sort of thing, but it IS a psychological burden when your dumb stream where you pretend to be a sheep and eat chips can be one of the only good things in someone's life.

This might be an unpopular opinion, and I apologize if this comes off wrong. While I’m very happy for this person, that they survived a trauma like this, and turned their life around, and are doing well now. I honestly hope that people don’t do this too often, not just to Hololive, or Vtubers in general, or even streamers of any kind. 99.999% of them are just regular people, trying to entertain. They don’t have any training, or anything like that to help you. Even feel-good stories like this, must take a toll on the streamers. And while this one turned out well, to put pressure like that, even unintentionally, could be very detrimental to the streamer. So again, I’m very happy that this person is doing well, after everything, but we as viewers really shouldn’t drop weights like this on the people we watch. Watame, Kiara, and I’m sure many many more have to deal with this far too often. They are so sweet for caring and trying their best to help. But, just let them have fun. I’m sorry if this comes off negative, I honestly didn’t mean it to be.

I can’t and will not speak for anyone, especially the hololive talents, but I hope these kind of messages do not make them anxious and scared to retire or take non forced extended breaks. I sometimes feel like so many messages saying something along the lines of “I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you” would eventually make the recipient feel guilty about retiring or taking said breaks. As if they’d be responsible if anything happened to those whose “life depends” on this outlet. Tho idk how they feel or if they let it bother them. Just a small concern. I’m sure it also makes them very happy to know how many lives they’ve improved and how many people they make happy just by showing their faces!

All the Hololive talents are smart, funny, skilled, and stuff. But what really got me is how wholesome and human they all are - especially with each other. It is like watching an actual anime. I find myself resonating with them, cheering for their success, laughing and crying along with them. I am and will always be so grateful to all the people that made this possible ❤

Watamama really has an heart of gold

[@KenanVonKaiser]

Wow!

[@everlastingsolace188]

Watame is truly the fluffiest of sheeps with the kindest of hearts

[@linajabba9639]

Well I don't have any sad story to tell, Hololive rescued me from, but it sure made me happier in generell and also this Idol stuff, people you look up to, we don't really have that in my country, but I started to really respect the Holomem's for their accomplishments and want to kinda be like them some day

[@kkhlufris]

Im starting to think that Watame has this gift of helping people with anxiety Coz I too am a very anxious person and watching her help me a lot.

[@Addictivemeh]

Do the JP superchats ever get this intense? It's a sweet message and all, but jesus that's a lot to place on her shoulders. Just wondering if it's a thing unique to us overseas bros, like go into any of the big streamers on Twitch's chats and you'll see these kind of messages from time to time, just unbelievably personal things they're sharing in donations messages and half the time the streamers have absolutely no fucking idea how to respond to such a trauma dump

[@someguy4324]

In a world of fake happiness and real misery, our fluffy sheep manages to make people feel safe, indeed feel anything at all. It may be unfortunate that random girls on the internet have to serve as friends and family, but that is just our modern condition. Here's hoping Watame can achieve her own dreams.

[@cuongschmidt7645]

look at THIS, who said Hololive didn't save lives?

[@ThePastaBolognese]

I find it curious that many people found a reason to actually live in vtubers, say what you will, if watching a streamer and giving them some cash for the entertainment makes you think "maybe life isn't so bad" then go for it, of course parasocial relations are a bad habit you should avoid, but getting that small push is not something you should be ashamed of.

[@monjigoku]

Can anyone tell me what's the name of her bgm ?

[@Frost_Trow]

This is wholesome I guess but there is something to be said about trauma dumping on streamers in a public forum that is kind of weird

[@SKy_the_Thunder]

I don't see it as "dumping". It's something that if anything should be discussed more in a public forum. As she said, a huge part of these mental health problems is the self-isolation - the "why me?" and "am I the only one?" that drag you down into cutting out the rest of the world. And even just seeing/hearing others open up about their own battles takes a lot of that away. It shows people that they're not "weird", "different" and "wrong", but that sometimes anyone may need help, and that anyone can offer that help to others, if just by offering a comfortable environment.

[@lime148]

Finally someone with a brain. People watch vtubers to get away from this kind of shit, not hear more of it. If he really just wanted to express gratitude he could have sent a single, "Hey, thanks for helping me through some tough times," but he absolutely needed to get his 15 minutes of fame and his "awww made the streamer cry so wholesome chungus 100 xD" moment.

[@SKy_the_Thunder]

@@lime148 ^ and this is a prime example of why many people are too afraid to talk about their problems and end up in a downward spiral of isolation...

[@Hanex94]

@@lime148 cringe

[@sentinalvortex2]

@@SKy_the_Thunder We should encourage people to talk about their problems, but there are places that are better suited for those kinds of things. If you're mentally unwell then talk to a professional or the people closest to you. If you feel isolated in your struggle, then try group therapy or talk to a friend. Get actual help. Don't go to a stranger's stream and send 5 separate donations for 14 700 NT about your entire life story. It only helps to bring down the mood of the stream. Streamers aren't your therapists and they aren't your friends. Stop treating this like it's healthy behaviour.

[@外人-m4l]

goddamn that superchat made me cry bro ;-;

[@Rem-dj1bk]

A lot of people were saved by hololive I was once depressed because of stress from my family and school and i cant think of anything i can do for like its like ive lost all hope until i found gura on my reccomends after that i learned about hololive en and i fell deeper to meet hololive jp and id. It saved me a lot it made me more motivated for things i need to do but like that dude said that one day they will just dissapear like popping a bubble, it also made me scared that what if that hapened it will make a lot of people sad too, but after coco's graduation stream i learned that they wont dissapear without saying goodbye. I want to thank yagoo for the idol group he created. :D

[@orakuotaku]

Something people forget is everyone else has some story as well. Everyone is the main character with all the downfalls and ceilings and issues as anyone else might have at some point. Keep that in mind before lashing out at people and even if you don't want to make the world a better place keep it in mind to keep the world from being worse. Next time someone calls you names online or you feel like insulting someone keep that fact in mind. You don't know if something is frustrating them or if their life is hell or what people are going through at all

[@derrickseeto9698]

Indeed, such a sweet sheep If you wonder why some are so harsh on drunk drivers, this explains well in the start.

[@heromedley]

mans gone through hell and back. hope hes doing well now more power to small kang-san.

[@kato_dsrdr]

Man, hololive became a safe place for many people to escape their problems.

[@Alblishes]

wait besides that, how much money did he donate to her???

[@ScientistA]

[@sarcasm-83]

I've been single and quite alone for 9 years now, due to having my social anxiety, anxiety and depression get worse after a breakup and I'm very thankful for finding Hololive.. I'm at the age where I suppose a man would often have a family and children and Hololive has given me so much joy in a similar way watching kids would. Cuteness, energy, humor, entertainment, to distract me from negative and bitter feelings. I'm so happy that after finding a few clips and liking em, HoloEN happened that really made me involved. Especially as my therapy had gotten me in a much better place right before Covid and then all group therapies etc. were cancelled, sending me into quite possibly the worst time of my life, due to the frustration of there being another setback and increase in my secluded anxiety fueled "lifestyle". As "sad" as it is to still be alone (and realizing these entertainers aren't my actual social relationships) I genuinely think that these girls at least make me FEEL a whole lot less lonely and miserable, remembering there are things to smile about. For anyone going through similar things, never be ashamed of enjoying what makes you smile. Whatever you find in life that can make you enjoy your time is truely valuable.

Coming from a year+ later, hope you're well over there.

watame is that one vtuber where you come for hugs and pats ❤️

[@ramramraider]

Truly a nakimusheep. Its not all fun and games for hololive and the viewers. People mean it when they say they get through with hololive or whatever form of entertainment it is. The fun thing about Watamates and other fanbases is that everyone is one big family and look out for each other.

[@nutmaster9541]

Watame wholesomeness is on another lvl

Must protect Watasheep. Protekking Watame is protekking WataUs.
