Ina rates the floor a meager 3/10. The surface is no longer smooth due to damages occured. It is dirtied with debris. The only redeeming quality of it is it's chill.
Theory time: Basically, Ina wanted to recreate the universe using observation theory so she created a website which kidnaps people to torture them to attract attention from their suffering. She succeeded in drawing watchers as shown in episode 2 (Calli's eye ball scooping is unrelated, she's just always been a yandere). After confirming that she drew watchers from the idol mutilations, Ina decided to continue with her experiments on mutations to see how many more watchers she can draw. Eventually this leads to the events of episode 3 here where by sheer coincidence, Kronii is injected with the mutation serum which gives (or activates) her time powers. So when she rewinds time, it's now with the weight of all of these watchers so their reality adjusts itself to one where it makes sense for them to be watched. Like say, v-tubers.
I mean I don't even know the observation stuff but i mean the comic is really awesome. The only weak part was the episode 2... i legit have no i idea what goes on aboit that
@@stevenphoenix389 No she doesn't like scooping eyes. It's just very on brand for her to go to the extremes to protect someone she loves, especially her little sister.
@@akira8393 Basically, Ina's experiments have caused "watchers" to start looking into their reality more closely. Bae who is well known for being a jumpy and easily scared rat senses the presence of these watchers watching her and it drives her into crazed paranoia. Callie in this reality is a yandere for Bae so she sought to "solve" Bae's problem by scooping out everyone's eyeballs, including herself.
I choose to believe that Fauna put Monster Mumei being thicker than a bowl of oatmeal in the script explicitly and intentionally cuz DAYUM BOY SHE THI-
@@shelbyjackson6903 *sigh* I'll take this one to Ina to see if she can do a quick rez or Fauna... Idk if the Quarantine Department has nature perms. I assume we do?
@@eriktheshitposterm.i.a6760 alright buddy, I you have 1 correct answer for this before I make an arrest by the Tako Quarantine Department. Are you participating in Non-stop Nut November? Or classic NNN?
The irony that the forgetful owl is actually the one that remembers their past existence. Mei acts like she’s forgetful, but as gura said, “don’t let that cute face fool you, she knows…”
If I had a nickel for each time Ina had destroyed a timeline, I would have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot but it's wierd it happened twice. In the past week.
Fauna didnt just made 3 short stories with themes of horror beyond our comprehension, but she took that one step further and made US, THE VIEWERS the true evil of the stories. Just by watching them play out we allow them to change, to turn bad, because thats what we wanted, the observer effect at work.
Because this time an EN member wrote their lines and presumably they matched the illustrations to the lines. Previously the lines were written by hired JP people in Japanese and translated, and the videos were done before dubbing. Not only did the lines not fit the characters, they had to lip sync those awkward lines to wrong mouth movements.
"Ophanim". A name in the bible occasionally used to refer to angels. Sometimes also referred to as **"The Many-Eyed One."** Taking into account Ina's explanation of the Observation Effect, the Watchers that tormented Bae, and the vanishings that drove Gura, Fauna, and Amelia to the brink of madness, whatever they were trying to attract worked. I mean, we're here, aren't we? We watched, because cruelty really is the best attractor, isn't it (Notice that she's looking *right at the audience* as she says this)? How many times have we read a story, watched a show, because of the hurt the characters go through? Now what if the characters became aware of that? Well here we are. Even though it's all seemingly fixed in the end, the fact that Kronii, Mumei, and Ina seem to recall what happened just leaves this worrying unease in the air, this unaddressed question. What if it happens again? Bravo to Fauna and the rest of the girls for putting all this together. It's wonderfully horrifying, and I hope we get something like this again next year.
Of course those three would recall. Ina is the priestess of eldritch forces that exist outside time and space, Mumei is attuned to civilization and its growth/expriences, and Kronii is literally time incarnate.
If anyone's sleeping on Fauna I hope they're not anymore. She made a bunch of themed horror shorts around a vital message in the internet era: being an audience is not a neutral act. What we watch has consequences not just for us, but for what we're watching. Hololive, and the vtubing phenomenon as a whole, is a very positive example of the power of audiences. We've seen lots of people find out wonderful things about themselves and be encouraged to creatively build bridges between people. But it's been so refreshing because it's a point of light in an endless void of darkness. People getting audiences they shouldn't for doing things they shouldn't and making the world an objectively worse place for everyone, including themselves, is what we've mostly seen. Take your pick at what you can get mad at; destructive tiktok trends, twitter swarms, conspiracy theories, radicalization, Nico Avocado... it's endless. But we have a choice. We have to remember that.
This must be terrifying for Kronii not only has see seen timelines where she has lost someone close to her but she’s also seen timelines where she’s seen or had to fight her friends who have been corrupted or evil versions of herself. It’s no wonder she’s the second strongest Council member after Sana because I don’t think the others would be able to cope with knowledge she knows. It would also make it harder to trust those around her as well.
"This one has Nanashi Mumei in it..." Me: "My god!" "It gets scarier." Me: "No!" What we have here is a Dimitrescu situation, though. "Oh no, Mumei. Don't chase me. Someone help. Oh no, I tripped."
This episode was CHILLING. We observed all 3 episodes and because of that WE were the ones that put the girls through hell. WHAT A TWIST! Fauna really showed us her writing chops and BOY she did not disappoint. Mumei humming that twisted version of A New Start was a nice detail. Also, the panel at 2:38 hits WAAAAY hard. These episodes are masterpieces. Biiiig props to Fauna and everyone that worked on this
"WE were the ones that put the girls through hell." Only incidentally. We didn't do anything; in fact, we specifically weren't even important. Ina was trying to get someone, anyone, to watch -- I'm not entirely clear as to what she wanted to change, but converting Mumei was the final stroke of her pen. She just wanted eyes, and got ours. Mumei apparently had other ideas, though, and used Kronii as a desperate gambit to set things right.
Yeah. It didn’t seem like it mattered who would play the role of observers. It just so happened that we were the ones attracted by Ina’s plans which gives it an extra layer of chills imo. I don’t think Ina had any solid evidence that there would even be an observer to attract in the first place, which would mean her cruel experiments would’ve been all for nothing
I think I saw someone correctly guessed this in ep 2, that Bae feeling watched is because of us. The cruelty (i.e. the horror genre) attracts people to come watch these videos, and it is because they want our attention that they made the videos / experienced cruelty.
Fauna should write more, these were all stellar stories that all tied together neatly at the end. Everyone at hololive seems so talented it both inspires me and fills me with envy.
The way, "It worked on you, didn't it?" makes it feel like Ina is talking to us which was a pretty cool way to frame it xD Edit: Nvm just saw Ina's last line lol
In each episode, we can assume that all the “unknown threats” are actually us, the audience. We are the website, the eyes, and the reality warpers. We were actually the villains all along.😅
I think is both us and Kronii, cause shes there, the place where cruelty happens And also... by the view count seems like she's wrong, a random collab stream can attract more views than this video
I honestly wasn't expecting these stories to be linked together like this. I had assumed they were their own separate entities. I really liked the ending. Fauna did an amazing job with this and I hope she does more stories like this in the future.
Oh man that fourth wall breaking, thats certainly one way to make you uneasy, specially with the whole idea that we, just by watching this, caused it all is legitimately pretty terrifying Bravo Fauna
Okay my bet is Ina experiments on Mumei and turns her into the monster that kills everyone. Video is gonna premiere in 8 minutes as of me posting this.
The Observer Effect: A simple act of observation can change reality. You know this sounds awfully similar to what "The Watcher" does. If some of you remember, the Watcher simply observes Ina from a place beyond the void and can influence reality as she pleases. How interesting that these seem to make a connection with one another...
Oh man, what a ride to this conclusion. I really didn't know what to expect when it all started but damn did it go dark. Fauna killed it with her writing and all the girls really brought the whole story to life with their voice acting. The illustrations too are just chef's kiss, they nailed both how cute everyone is and how scary it can be to see that cuteness distorted. Kronii's voice acting really is protagonist level here, I was instantly pulled into the story. Mumei previously mentioned she thought her voice acting wasn't good but she really nailed her parts. Ina's normally calm voice really adds to the creepiness of the mad scientist. I like there's an overall arc but that there's a lot of mystery left in the air, a perfect way to bookend a Halloween story in my eyes (lol). I hope Hololive do more stuff like this.
Getting only 3 glimpses into Fauna's amazing dark writing is criminal, I can't wait for the next story Ina's voice acting was chilling, I'm kinda glad for the happy end but Fauna surely held back
We also got glimpses into her dark writing with her two Halloween ASMR videos, this year and the last one. And I'd day that those two videos are more horrifying for the viewers than these three episodes.
So this is canon, huh... SUGOI Amazing work, girls! you really shined as performers! and special thanks to Fauna for her clever writing and and all the artists involved
Given how we got “Myth’s bad ending,” it seems this Ina’s “theory” seems to imply that through each individual’s observations, different universes and outcomes can unravel out of control and Kronii’s is aware of them all. Plus Ina and Mumei seem to factor in to the permutations, possibly because Ina’s connection to the void and Mumei’s entanglement to historical events. Hololive English is just a chaotic melting pot of horrific realities and being an idol is just the “Cover” up.
I would certainly buy a collected print version of all the HoloweEN stories, if such a thing existed! Thank you for such a fun, creepy project, can't wait to see one next year!
Great finale! Everyone did great with the voice acting! Seeing Mumei unhinged was just perfection. Ina's powers are really something else, even after Kronii fixed the timeline, she still remembers what happened. Great work Fauna! Thanks for the awesome shorts!
Yes it's natural for the universe to reset itself whenever Mumei turns into a horror movie monster, it's the one thing more scarier than Haachama's cooking.
That was a very spooky timeline there. Looks like Kronii manage to get a better one this time and all she needed was for Mumei to say the word. These few stories were great and everyone did an amazing job.
3:11 i think it would have been more shoking if that Mumei scene with that music, come immediately after kronii said: "Mume-" without Kronii finishing saying Mumei name
This only makes me wonder all the horrors Kronii and Ame had had to witness in the countless timelines they have seen or experienced. Being in contact with the power of time is truly a heavy burden.
Thank you Fauna for bringing back everyone, of course we'll still watch! The writing, the voice acting, the manga format, everything was so good in this serie, I'm kind of sad this is already the end I wanted more episodes. Hope we'll see more creatives projects like this in the future!
Few things to say: 1. Great job this was very well made and enjoyable 2. The roles given to each were very fitting in this episode 3. I don't know why but Mumei's first "Kronii" I know is suppose to be scary, but I found myself chuckling at it for some reason
I’m speechless, it is truly amazing how everyone in EN are so talented, honestly well done fauna for creating 3 breath taking stories and how she made them all connect through Kronii’s time traveling ability is really cool, I really hope in the future fauna gets to continue to share her work to everyone, i certainly can’t wait to see what she does next! 💚💚💚
The art in this episode gave me the CHILLS!!!! I love how monotone Mumei's voice was, it adds up to the whole "overpowered subject/experiment gone-wrong" vibe!!! A New Start being nananana'd in the background was kinda funny but it builds the suspense!!!! The ending made me happy. :) Happy Holoween!!!!!!! 🎃❤
OK, that was amazing, Fauna and the girls really outdid themselves with this! Really hope this opens up the possibility of seeing more content like this in the future. And mad props to everyone involved in making this happen, thanks for making something so damn good.
These were actually really good. Fauna really hit it out of the park with these. After thinking about it and reading some theories it all comes together really interestingly. Just the fact you can have some many theories about them shows how much deep thought was put into them.
Thanks everyone for putting this series together and big thanks to Fauna for creating and directing it! This was so amazing and I hope COVER can do more projects like this!
The most haunting of the three stories, and a world that could be easily expanded upon in the future. Fantastic job to everyone involved, and I hope to see more special installments like these in the future.
Dang Fauna. Now that was an awesome plot twist! I really liked how all of these short scary stories were great alone, but were all tied together into one whole masterpiece
Everyone did so good on every level, these were so cool to watch! I would love for Fauna to get the opportunity to write some more, this was a real treat!
Kronii does what Mumei asks happy end Thank you Fauna, and everyone else for all your hard work for these great shorts! I really enjoyed them all! Mad scientist Ina really went harder than I expected 👀 such good villain monologue
I agree on some parts of their voice acting but I will take it, mainly because it took me by surprise that they are voice acting fauna's story and damn I was blown away with gura, bae, and ina's amazing voice acting.
For the people here, I think that maybe in general terms we could say that the “villian” is Ina, or in better words the Ancient Ones that are always behind Ina; and at the same time the spectator of these videos, and I realized that after finally seeing the 3 chapters at one time, at first sight that's why we had seeing nothing related on the first two chapters The Ancient Ones and Ina maybe were forged in this Universe to be the "hand" for a weapon...and the ravenous, devouring weapon/entity trapped in their story were - and always had been - us. A kind of paradox shattered with Mumei, thats why she told Kronii to fix this So - in this story were our terrible destiny - to play out this purgatorial entity for all eternity... Also congratulations to Fauna for being an awesome writter :3
Well, Fauna really love reading a lot of deep and convoluted stories. But writing and reading doesn't necessary correlate, so this was pleasant surprise for me either how this stories turned out.
Never thought I would feel this terrified from Mumei singing. Fauna has written absolutely amazing series of stories and everyone absolutely nailed their part.
Ina being the mad scientist behind Mumei turning into a monster....DAMN. She really rocked the antagonistic element, especially when she explained the Observer Effect to Kronii. Her performance really gave me chills. I also enjoyed Kronii and Mumei's VAing here. The ending really gave me a sense of appreciation that our idols...have this world as an outcome. ;3 WHAT A FITTING third episode to the Holloween stories!!! Congrats to FAUNA for writing these amazing masterpieces!! Hopefully they continue this series, because I can't wait for the next Holloween episodes next year! 💜🤎💙

The way, "It worked on you, didn't it?" makes it feel like Ina is talking to us which was a pretty cool way to frame it xD
Edit: Nvm just saw Ina's last line lol
In each episode, we can assume that all the “unknown threats” are actually us, the audience. We are the website, the eyes, and the reality warpers. We were actually the villains all along.😅
@@AnonymouslyForgotten The website was totally set up by Director Ninomae to gather resources for her experiments.
@@takonaegi2967 That is true within the narrative but thematically we the audience are always Watching.
@@AnonymouslyForgotten I knew it, it was us😭
I think is both us and Kronii, cause shes there, the place where cruelty happens
And also... by the view count seems like she's wrong, a random collab stream can attract more views than this video
I honestly wasn't expecting these stories to be linked together like this. I had assumed they were their own separate entities. I really liked the ending. Fauna did an amazing job with this and I hope she does more stories like this in the future.
Oh man that fourth wall breaking, thats certainly one way to make you uneasy, specially with the whole idea that we, just by watching this, caused it all is legitimately pretty terrifying
Bravo Fauna
So much new respect for Fauna writing these.
3:55 remember, THICC Mumei got 4 wings
No matter how “evil” ina looks here I bet the “villian” or “killer” will be Mumei.
*ahem* somebody better pick up that phone cause I CALLED IT!
Dread it. Run from it. Civilization still arrives.
@Ren Kazuki actually if anything, mumei NOT being the "real" villain would be the twist
@Ren Kazuki the twist would be mumei being one of the the good one
I'm putting money on Kronii. Decoy protagonist!
Okay my bet is Ina experiments on Mumei and turns her into the monster that kills everyone. Video is gonna premiere in 8 minutes as of me posting this.
The Observer Effect: A simple act of observation can change reality.
You know this sounds awfully similar to what "The Watcher" does. If some of you remember, the Watcher simply observes Ina from a place beyond the void and can influence reality as she pleases. How interesting that these seem to make a connection with one another...
Oh man, what a ride to this conclusion. I really didn't know what to expect when it all started but damn did it go dark. Fauna killed it with her writing and all the girls really brought the whole story to life with their voice acting. The illustrations too are just chef's kiss, they nailed both how cute everyone is and how scary it can be to see that cuteness distorted.
Kronii's voice acting really is protagonist level here, I was instantly pulled into the story. Mumei previously mentioned she thought her voice acting wasn't good but she really nailed her parts. Ina's normally calm voice really adds to the creepiness of the mad scientist.
I like there's an overall arc but that there's a lot of mystery left in the air, a perfect way to bookend a Halloween story in my eyes (lol). I hope Hololive do more stuff like this.
Looks like Ina is far more better at acting in horror stories, than funny skits. That was a great performance.
Getting only 3 glimpses into Fauna's amazing dark writing is criminal, I can't wait for the next story
Ina's voice acting was chilling, I'm kinda glad for the happy end but Fauna surely held back
god imagine fauna's writing with mumei's drawing
@@jacobr.mp4453 OH NOOOO
We also got glimpses into her dark writing with her two Halloween ASMR videos, this year and the last one. And I'd day that those two videos are more horrifying for the viewers than these three episodes.
Fauna: "Nothing is scarier then Mumei. I know! I'll make her the final boss!"
So this is canon, huh... SUGOI
Amazing work, girls! you really shined as performers! and special thanks to Fauna for her clever writing and and all the artists involved
Well, it's A canon. At the very least it ends in a universe identical to our own.
Or maybe Kronii ate a bad sandwich.
@@planguy9575 That sounds more likely
Nature give alot of stories good or bad
Given how we got “Myth’s bad ending,” it seems this Ina’s “theory” seems to imply that through each individual’s observations, different universes and outcomes can unravel out of control and Kronii’s is aware of them all. Plus Ina and Mumei seem to factor in to the permutations, possibly because Ina’s connection to the void and Mumei’s entanglement to historical events. Hololive English is just a chaotic melting pot of horrific realities and being an idol is just the “Cover” up.
@@kinoleogeo7998 With the fact the Theatre of Time existing that is probable true.
I like that after all that suffering, Kronii, in his completelly baffled state, is still firmly holding her Subway.
4:56
*looks at Kronii's hand
So you're telling me, all this happened because Kronii ate a Subway?
never saw these till now but DAMN fauna wrote these? She's got a future as a horror writer.
I would certainly buy a collected print version of all the HoloweEN stories, if such a thing existed! Thank you for such a fun, creepy project, can't wait to see one next year!
Seconded! Tbh that hadn't even occurred to me, which is odd considering it's already in manga format!
Definitely buying it if they put it out.
My only and deepest regret... is that we don't gonna get to hear our beautyfull sana acting on this...
Great finale! Everyone did great with the voice acting! Seeing Mumei unhinged was just perfection. Ina's powers are really something else, even after Kronii fixed the timeline, she still remembers what happened. Great work Fauna! Thanks for the awesome shorts!
So was the ultimate goal to attract us, the observer, to them so ina can change reality?
@@jaylenharris343 It seems like that could be the case. Really neat way for Fauna to incorporate the audience into the story!
Ina at the end "You'll still watch, won't you?" and her giggle is way too cute
Fauna is a badass horror writer. I hope she does this more!
Yes it's natural for the universe to reset itself whenever Mumei turns into a horror movie monster, it's the one thing more scarier than Haachama's cooking.
looks like mad scientist Smol Ina got an upgrade... I can't wait to see it!
The Mumei fan art that is gonna come out of this one is going to be EPIC
That was a very spooky timeline there. Looks like Kronii manage to get a better one this time and all she needed was for Mumei to say the word. These few stories were great and everyone did an amazing job.
4:43 “If you want something to go backwards, you just press the rewind button.” -David.
I hope Fauna gets more opportunities to do more stories in the future, she did a amazing job. Also, proud of Mumei VA it turned out very good.
3:11 i think it would have been more shoking if that Mumei scene with that music, come immediately after kronii said: "Mume-" without Kronii finishing saying Mumei name
This only makes me wonder all the horrors Kronii and Ame had had to witness in the countless timelines they have seen or experienced. Being in contact with the power of time is truly a heavy burden.
Ah, Mumei and Kronii's totally platonic love for each other solved the universe. Best end!
Thank you Fauna for bringing back everyone, of course we'll still watch! The writing, the voice acting, the manga format, everything was so good in this serie, I'm kind of sad this is already the end I wanted more episodes. Hope we'll see more creatives projects like this in the future!
Few things to say:
1. Great job this was very well made and enjoyable
2. The roles given to each were very fitting in this episode
3. I don't know why but Mumei's first "Kronii" I know is suppose to be scary, but I found myself chuckling at it for some reason
I’m speechless, it is truly amazing how everyone in EN are so talented, honestly well done fauna for creating 3 breath taking stories and how she made them all connect through Kronii’s time traveling ability is really cool, I really hope in the future fauna gets to continue to share her work to everyone, i certainly can’t wait to see what she does next! 💚💚💚
Props to Fauna for really tying this all together! That was an incredible trilogy!
The art in this episode gave me the CHILLS!!!! I love how monotone Mumei's voice was, it adds up to the whole "overpowered subject/experiment gone-wrong" vibe!!! A New Start being nananana'd in the background was kinda funny but it builds the suspense!!!!
The ending made me happy. :) Happy Holoween!!!!!!! 🎃❤
Ina talking like a mad scientist was something I didn’t know I wanted
OK, that was amazing, Fauna and the girls really outdid themselves with this!
Really hope this opens up the possibility of seeing more content like this in the future. And mad props to everyone involved in making this happen, thanks for making something so damn good.
These were actually really good. Fauna really hit it out of the park with these. After thinking about it and reading some theories it all comes together really interestingly. Just the fact you can have some many theories about them shows how much deep thought was put into them.
Ready for a bone chilling time. If the teaser is anything to go by this might be even more terrifying that the last one
I love the fact that "Myth's Bad Ending" can eventually happen anyway, 'cause Ina's kinda sus at the end of this origin story xD
I must say that the stories were so good, thank you Fauna for create so amazing stories as well the illustrators for make them a reality!
WAY BETTER than most movies coming out in these days! hololive is life
Thanks everyone for putting this series together and big thanks to Fauna for creating and directing it! This was so amazing and I hope COVER can do more projects like this!
The HoloEN timeline being reset was not something I expected to see twice in such a short amount of time
The most haunting of the three stories, and a world that could be easily expanded upon in the future. Fantastic job to everyone involved, and I hope to see more special installments like these in the future.
Dang Fauna. Now that was an awesome plot twist! I really liked how all of these short scary stories were great alone, but were all tied together into one whole masterpiece
Everyone did so good on every level, these were so cool to watch! I would love for Fauna to get the opportunity to write some more, this was a real treat!
Fauna made such interesting short stories! Super down for more stuff like this every now and then!
Kronii does what Mumei asks happy end
Thank you Fauna, and everyone else for all your hard work for these great shorts! I really enjoyed them all!
Mad scientist Ina really went harder than I expected 👀 such good villain monologue
なんだこの終わり方！？
全く予想してなかった
What a perfect way to end such a thrilling series. Episode 2 was by far the scariest imo.
I like how all of them got equal amount of screen time within 3 episodes. Quite good. 👏🏻 👍🏻
Oh man,
Kronii's voice acting, and the way they did the voice acting are on FIREEEE!!!!!!
I LOVE THIS EPISODE!!!
I agree on some parts of their voice acting but I will take it, mainly because it took me by surprise that they are voice acting fauna's story and damn I was blown away with gura, bae, and ina's amazing voice acting.
@@bleyk36 Me too!
For the people here, I think that maybe in general terms we could say that the “villian” is Ina, or in better words the Ancient Ones that are always behind Ina; and at the same time the spectator of these videos, and I realized that after finally seeing the 3 chapters at one time, at first sight that's why we had seeing nothing related on the first two chapters
The Ancient Ones and Ina maybe were forged in this Universe to be the "hand" for a weapon...and the ravenous, devouring weapon/entity trapped in their story were - and always had been - us.
A kind of paradox shattered with Mumei, thats why she told Kronii to fix this
So - in this story were our terrible destiny - to play out this purgatorial entity for all eternity...
Also congratulations to Fauna for being an awesome writter :3
4:38 Kronii use her stand Made in Heaven to reset timeline.
kronii zawardo
Ive got nothing to say. I'm in sheer awe. These 3 stories were surprisingly DEEP
Well, Fauna really love reading a lot of deep and convoluted stories. But writing and reading doesn't necessary correlate, so this was pleasant surprise for me either how this stories turned out.
The grand Finale. Great Job Fauna with your writing 💚💚💚
"it was perfect, perfect. everything down to the last minute details"
I hope hololive continues to produce the stories Fauna writes 🙏
Never thought I would feel this terrified from Mumei singing. Fauna has written absolutely amazing series of stories and everyone absolutely nailed their part.
Ina being the mad scientist behind Mumei turning into a monster....DAMN. She really rocked the antagonistic element, especially when she explained the Observer Effect to Kronii. Her performance really gave me chills. I also enjoyed Kronii and Mumei's VAing here. The ending really gave me a sense of appreciation that our idols...have this world as an outcome. ;3
WHAT A FITTING third episode to the Holloween stories!!! Congrats to FAUNA for writing these amazing masterpieces!! Hopefully they continue this series, because I can't wait for the next Holloween episodes next year! 💜🤎💙
I love the eye theme from these videos. The title and subject for the 2nd and 3rd, and the image on the website from the first. 👁👁👁👁👁
fauna's writing in all of these were amazing
Ina's voice acting has improved so much since Umisea.
Mumei: Kronii..fix this
And then the two become lovey-dovey birds and live happily never after ❤
Thank you Fauna and Hololive for bringing this fantastic series to life! I would not mind seeing more like this!
