![[ORIGINAL SONG] Cursed Night - Calliope Mori (REACTION)](/img/tr.png)
*JANUARY 16TH I DROP MY FIRST SINGLE OF 2021 “313” ft Denace AKA STAN!*
*GET THIS TO 2K THUMBS UP FOR THE NEXT HOLOLIVE*
I love the energy you bring to your reactions. I've seen a lot of reaction videos but yours are next level. Can't wait for the 16th.
Dude, you explaine it every meaning of the rap, and that's great. I like it
pretty much hololive has Japanese creators while some of the hololive girls know english it not enough to be fluent, so they made a English version where the streams are in english as the main language and Japanese too. there is also and Indonesian version swell. and hopefully by march or after that there will be more En hololive girls since they are holding auditions for english singers.
Bet
If she still does music, and videos, maybe ya should collaborate on something? Anyway, nice wholesome rabbit hole you’ve found!!!
“Is it weird she sound better in the other language?” That’s sub over dub right there
He's becoming a man of culture too, I see......
The power of weeb grows stronger in him every day. Excellent
i agree with this except gokus voice the sub goku voice sucks
I like how Mori isn't like a lot of sub watchers who trash on dub she respects both
@@laboon344 Funny thing is Japanese people trash on sub viewers. I seen a thread about it on twitter just a few days ago actually. Basically some people were saying how much hate Dub voice actors get and some Japanese and Japanese Americans gave their take. Apparently alot of the times Japanese voice actors will botch the Voice over but since its in another language people who don't understand that language don't even notice.
I believe a Vtuber talked about this too but I forgot who
Just a little fun fact. Calliope's debut EP reached the number one worldwide spot on iTunes at one point.
To no one's surprise.
Wait what is the song called
@@jeremy9704 It's an EP, not a song. An EP is essentially a mini-album. Her debut EP named "Dead Beats" was her first four songs.
@@AceTheMM oh ok i had no clue what an EP was thanks
And it passed black thoughts album for a bit too. Just wow
He fell in the rabbit hole.
He can never leave.
_when you stare at the Peko hole, the Peko doesn't stare back it just outright pulls you in_
@@sirottovonbismarck6776 that's FAQ
A
I yeeted myself into that hole
As far as Calli herself and vtubers as a whole go, they're not quite like Gorillaz. They're real streamers who do a variety of things, from gaming to music. While Gorillaz are fictional characters in a constructed band, these vtubers are actual people streaming, just under virtual models, and often with some level of a persona.
Where this is important to take into account especially is that Calli has her persona as the grim reaper's apprentice she puts on for the streams and songs, but this song in particular is very much a letter directly both to her current audience, and also to the audience that has been with her since before she started streaming as 'Calliope Mori'.
Also, it's 'Hololive English' because Hololive itself is a Japanese company, an 'idol group' for vtubers.
Someone on the last video said to think of Hololive as like the Gorillaz
yeah, but it is a good starting point for someone who isn't very well versed in Japanese culture since it is people using a virtual avatar to interact with the world. So not a perfect comparison but is a decent starting point in learning more
Yeah it’s far more easier pill to swallow by saying “think of Gorillaz” then explaining Eastern Idol culture to a Westerner that doesn’t know much about Japanese stuff. Since “Idols” in the west are not really a thing.
It’s like trying to explain to a person that doesn’t speak English how to use the word “Fuck” which is everything, because “Fuck” can be used as a verb, noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, or interjection.
It’s simple, and its complex at the same time.
@@KaozKaiser09 I get it's easier to explain Gorillaz than idol culture, but it's also very easy to explain 'they're streamers', which of course is also exactly what they are.
yeah someking is it like gorillaz but hololive have restriction , no politic and stuff. theare "just" there to make us happy
Yeah, Hololive is a japanese company, but they expanded into other countries/languages like HoloLiveEnglish
furthermore, her native language in English so she is under holoEN. It should be mentioned that I think all the holoEN girls are at different levels of proficiency in Japanese however I think Kiara is the best and then Cali.
@@loganholmes2991 I believe Kiara is a native japanese speaker, hence her proficiency, while Calliope is taking classes for her Japanese.
@@ryomitsui000 Isnt Kiara German? At least that's what I though, sorry if its wrong
I don’t know if Kiara is German or Japanese or whatever, but she is fluent in Japanese, English, and German.
@@standreamcatcher2371 no you are right kiara is German it's just that she learned Japanese quite quickly if I am not mistaken and although calli is living in Japan (and has been living there) she didn't really feel the need probably to improve much before hololive since as long as you Living in the country you don't exactly need to be fluent in the language as long as you can get by
1: the other language is Japanese
2: Mori is a member of Hololive EN, a sub group of Hololive JP
3: third time asking you to watch the stream clip of her doing the third verse of Godzilla
Fun Fact: Her name Calliope is a reference to the Greek muse of poetry, and her nickname Calli/Kali means She Who Is Death in sanskrit (I read this on a comment on another song of hers)
That and sakura days since he was like how hard can her voice go
To be nitpicky, HoloLive EN is a branch of HoloLive, not a sub group of HoloLive JP. A sub group of HoloLive JP would be HoloLive Gamers for instance.
Or skynut....
@@NobuAlter man that and 2019 guy she just couldn't sing it I still don't know how the hell did Charlie did that without death
HoloEN isn't a subgroup of HoloJP. It is it's own branch under the Hololive name, in the same sense as HoloID, HoloCN, and HoloStars just to nitpick on ya.
I see this song as her some sort of goodbye to the fans of her former persona but its also welcoming them back to the new 'her' alongside her new hololive fans, and how she explains to them that she now is living better off than before .
(although her twitter account on her former persona is still active)
She said on DD twiter recently that 2021 is gonna be a big year for DD, so she Is probably still working on projects for it. at least i hope so, I loved the last albums style.
@@loganholmes2991 I have heard many times that she was not planning on abandoning the DD persona, which may be why she always seems to be working her ass off to the point where she falls asleep while streaming.
@@Kaylakaze that would make sense, she stopped "sythe swinging lessons" recently so she at least has more time now
@@Kaylakaze DD persona? thought she used to be Valkyrie Aurora as the timing, personality, voice, and habits lined up
@@JetstreamKage I don't know who Valkyrie Aurora is but Calli is also DemonDice ruclips.net/video/Gn5szRV8500/видео.html
5:05 "She has the ability to make a huge pop banger"...its almost like she's an idol or something
"like AKB48...................."
*laughs in yagoo's destroyed dream*
Yeah just like Kiara and Gura!
A single tear falls down Yagoo's face reading this comment
Too bad they are in a entertainment company
"Live Again" was actually one of her first songs where she actually puts a bit more emphasis on the singing itself rather than the rap. She wasn't sure how well people would recieve it since she isn't really a "singer" by normal means but I think it was pretty damn good even considering that. and she certainly has potential for even better.
EDIT: Also something to note is that Japanese by default is a VERY passaggio(might've used the wrong word?) language, basically meaning that even during normal conversation, the pitch rarely ever stays the same unlike an American or especially a UK accent, where you'll find a lot of people talk fairly monotone through a single sentence (at least in comparison to other countries) but you don't need to speak Japanese to listen out for an example. Just find a random Japanese video somewhere online where two or a group of people are talking and you can visibly chart out a graph to how the pitch of their voice changes within a short amount of time. Meanwhile for Americans or Brits for example, you subconsciously choose a tone based on the mood of your sentence and you stick with it (like a "curious" tone for a question perhaps).
Not saying that's 100% the reason but in short, that's possibly why it sounds like she has a "better" voice in Japanese. She's natively an english speaker so she's still actually learning Japanese but she tends to use it pretty well in songs especially.
Reminds me of the line on "Deadbeats" where she says "rappin's easy but makin music's hard" how rapping is one thing, but the music itself is something completely else
Thank you for explaining this. This is the crux for me liking subs over dubs but I couldn't understand fully why. This helped me understand now. So again thank you.
I love his understanding of why people listen to songs in languages they don’t understand. A good song and singer can make you feel without even understanding lyrics
Never thought I'd see another Mokey Mokey Profile Picture.
Dude you fell to this rabbit hole
HA ⬆️ HA ⬇️ HA ↗️ HA ↙️
He's here forever now-peko
I love that everyone's falling down the VTuber rabbit hole.
Have u also
Well i have
There are many shovels, and no ladders.
Before May, 2021 I was actually hater of V-tubers.
But in this month I eventually watched A SINGLE CLIPS of Gawr gura...
Then...
Fuck yeah I'm chumbuds, I'm dead beat, I'm Takodachi, I'm teamates, and I'm kiara fanclub.
Now I'm fallen to rabbit hole and I can't find the way out......
@@pitot0philo207 There are no ladders, only shovels.
I actually fell in the hole with Nyanners.
I would like to see more reactions to calli's raps
Yeah calliope talked about this, she’s learning to mix so she does it and then her mix master comes in and helps smooth it out
It focuses on the English because Hololive itself is Japanese based with branches that focus on other languages because of its overseas popularity, coincidentally, there's also a Hololive Indonesia
"Let's get this to 2k likes"
3 hours later: "Okay next"
*Sigh* thought so
He's suffering from the dichotomy of normal expectations vs the rabbit hole. Was it...Ina? whose goal was to make 100k subs and she did it before she even debuted?
@@Ravenleaf182 I know recently Reine did that. It's been a while since HoloENs debuts but sounds possible
@@Ravenleaf182 Botan too had 108k before her debut stream began and 136k an hour after the stream. And she refused to do a 100k thank you stream because she felt that she hadn't earned it herself.
@@nyrtzi Okay? but I was talking about specifically one of them had this goal of getting 100k subs and she had to cross it out and change it because she hit it before debut. I know it wasn't botan, but it doesn't matter, its the same principle. He doesn't understand how active the fanbase is so the difference between his usual like goals is probably off compared to the hololive fanbase
"I don't know what she's saying but I felt that"
Me: *you starting to understood reaper's language now*
"We are going further down the rabbit hole"
Boi you haven't even STARTED
Oh boi you are far from the bottom
@@supercreeper6835 You're assuming that there's even a bottom to the Rabbit Hole?
@@ianrafaelabenido5453 wait, he got a point
Until he ends with "-peko", he isn't far enough
@@ianrafaelabenido5453 Yes there is. I've seen it...
“Is it weird she sound better in the other language?” So are we gonna recommend him TAMAONSEN, TOPHAMHAT- KYO and Fake Type? Because honestly ゆけむり魂温泉's chorus is a hard vibe.
9:57 "i dont even know what she was saying but that was beautiful"
...and this is how you fall down the hole
"I don't even know what she was sayin and that was beautiful"
Everyone: "New here?"
🤣
Hololive is originally a Japanese company and they are basically like a talent company. The original branch is the Japanese one that's by far the biggest, then they got an Indonesian branch and a few months back they expanded with the English branch, which is where Calliope Mori comes in. Out of the 5 talents that belong to Hololive English so far, Calliope is one of 3 that speak Japanese and she herself lives in Japan. She's also been active in the Japanese music/rap scene in general aleady before becoming a vtuber, which is why she's no stranger to that language mix style.
Who's the third that speaks Japanese (besides her and Kiara)?
@@Kaylakaze Ina also speaks Japanese, more than Gura and Ame at least
@@Kaylakaze Ina speaks decent Japanese as well, on top of English and Korean.
Scru, I'm just stating facts but this fandom and community will welcome you with open arms and even boost you up. These talents will also boost your mood up as well if you find your cup of tea among them. Welcome to the rabbit hole!
I wonder if she's heard of what he has to say in these videos, 'cause there's some legitimate advice that she might be able to use to advance her career in the song production/rapping/singing area. I know there's a bit of variation between vtubers (and youtubers in general) that find (or are linked) to reactions of their stuff, and those that very specifically do not. A majority of reaction youtubers don't have much to offer professionally, but SFJ can offer a different perspective on a shared genre.
There might be a chance she watches it since Hololive Vtubers do watch people's reaction videos to themselves. Though with Scru Face Jean there might be a case of simply "different styles" happening here so some of the advice he's giving probably doesn't even apply because Calli specifically raps in a Japanese style which has differences compared to classical Western.
@@DALKurumiTokisaki True enough. I barely know anything about rapping in general, let alone the cultural differences between western and Japanese rapping. Still, his advice does include the production and mixing of beats so I stand by what I originally posted. Besides, not all advice has to be taken just as long as it's considered, and unless I'm severely out-of-tune with her personality she seems like she would welcome legitimate advice.
@@KingHoborg In regards to mixing and beats I believe Kokoro Beats is the person who handles that atm (she did more mixing on her own for her previous alias). Kokoro Beats is well known among the Touhou Doujin Music community and makes music mixing Touhou tracks. SFJ in previous videos mentioned the beats sounding more "video gamey" is due to Kokoro Beats' style having done mixes with actual Video game tracks.
@@DALKurumiTokisaki Yeah, you sound way more in tune with that sort of stuff. I didn't know any of that, so I'll take your word for it and leave it at that.
@@KingHoborg It's something that most people wouldn't know unless you do a lot of digging into the Japanese indie music scene.
In regards to Calli advancing her rapping/music career I would say she's already well versed and is definitely a professional she currently just had a shift in her career as she was still getting used to current alias (her current music is a lot more character focused on her being a Grim Reaper).
I recommend songs like "Your an Ace Kid", "Alcatraz", "Hazy Skyscraper", and "Sick outa fashion" from her previous alias. Their her more unique songs that each touch different subjects instead of mostly being focused on her character.
"She was going IN on the last song but this one Sounds like she about to serenade somebody."
*Allow me to Introduce Kiara Takanashi and the rest of the Lore.*
Also known as Kusotori
Also known as the mom of the marriage xD
Also known as Shit Bird.
"I didn't even know what she was saying and that was beautiful."
Me who constantly listens to Anime Openings: Yo facts!
React to Cursed Night by Mori Calliope!
At the end with the big smile and just dancing, Scru has fallen. Welcome brother.
When you can rap in English, Spanish, German, and Japanese
* nervous flex * I always tell my friends I can rap in four languages and they don’t believe me then I pull out this song or others from her and then I’ll free style in all four just to prove a point
I believe Live Again was also kind of a tribute to her old persona as Dice. An example of which would be the lines
"It's not the end of your mori (nope) 'Cause every closed door is the intro of a brand new story"
and
"But, maybe it's deliverance?
From the pain I know is coming on when my old soul's finally gone
It's not wrong to think about it, but I'll stop for tonight
'Cause we're immortalized forever in the songs that we write, ya know?"
There are plenty more but those are some of the first you hear
That "maji yokatta" gets ya, doesn't it. You can almost *feel* the slight sorrow of parting and the joy of having met in the first place in those two words.
The fact that Mori is so good at so many different things doesn't surprise me at all . From what she said in streams and when she came in as a guest on the trash taste podcast , in order to get into Hololive EN ( the english branch of a Japanese virtual idol agency ) , she and every other girl in that is in that agency had to compete for that spot , not only in their talent at rapping , singing , drawing , etc. but for how well they can play in the character they're given and how well they can entertain an audience live .
As far as popular. Her first song you listened to hit number 1 on spotify in several countries, including JP, US, and Canada
There's other good rappers, at least in flow and sound, in Hololive, though most are in Japanese. Watame has great flow and Fubuki is all speed lol
Also, Korone had fun with at least one and Miko did a decent freestyle on a word knocking beat in a horror game
@@valdris86 don't forget Korone and Okayu's duet live stream
I think your forgetting our pop on rock Watson
@@weebtaku8459 To be fair, the mix was all HoloBass. Amelia just provided the sultry brain melting voice sample.
Rushia has also a couple of raps and her style I'd say is more in the cutesy side
Her first EP went top 1 on worldwide iTunes chart for two days I believe. I was stunned on that reception.
Finally an actual rapper that can actually breakdown calli's rap,im subbin, big ups my guy
Waxing philosophical from exposure to Calli's sweetest song so far
This is personally my favorite song from her I'm glad you liked it too
Also, she HAS made an international banger. RIP for me was number 1 on itunes, topped the charts.
He continues his journey through hololive just like my journey of me asking you to show us your dokkan account day 28
Wait he plays dokkan?
Eyo?
@@spyekey6085 yea he does
Her single Cursed Night is fucking amazing
On the opposite side of the spectrum of styles her song Cursed Night is such a good song. it feels like a much more personal song.
This song was like a "thank you and welcome" tribute song to her new fans and her old persona's fans - a beginning of a new journey. Immortalized forever in the songs that we write; when my old soul's finally gone, I'm not sorry, but I wanna see you again some time...etc.
8:32 happy to see you like that mixed language verse too. "Ja mata" in this context is "seeya later", similar to that. Which explains the verse a bit more, and yeah the Japanese rap bit hit hard, I wish they translated it in video. But that's the beauty - you just hear the sound! And you can feel it's good.
"I didn't even know what she saying and that was beautiful"
me every time I listen to Anime OP
Thank you for taking time out of your day to react to these types of videos. Also, your first single of 2021 is coming up soon! Congratulations!
Good luck with your goals for this new year!
I don't normally comment on videos, but your vibe is intoxicating in a good way! You seem mad cool and I look forward to seeing more content. Just discovered you 3 days ago and I'm now a devoted supporter 🙏🏻
Remember the time by the one and only michael jackson
I am awe of Calliope Mori, I admit it. She got bars, speed, and the ability to rap in English, casual Japanese, and formal Japanese (which is almost a separate language). Not to mention the fact that western music is chromatic (8 note scale) and the Japanese music tradition is a five note scale. The person behind her avatar is insanely talented, and is able to utilize those talents while acting, writing, and making music in character. It is INSANE. (Aaannnnd this would be why VTubers are taking over the algorithms. In addition to the cute anime girl does cute things trope.)
I love this song the most.
The crossover between gangsta rap, and anime has come! Keep going down this rabbit hole, we look forward to having you along my friend! Also I will be sure to check out your track when it comes out! PEACE!
it is fun to see new artist like her growing up and developing into a proper rapper/singer
Something cool you may want to know is that her "Please excuse me, but could you please RIP?" made it to #1 in the world for rap on ITunes. At least, if I remember correctly.
scru was the last person i expected to go down the rabbit hole but you know whaaat- i'm about it, I APPRECIATE THESE BREAKDOWNS KING
IM TELLING YOU EVERY TIME I HEAR THAT SONG I FEEL LIKE IM MELTING. LIKE IT EVEN GIVES ME SHIVERS
Now Scru is just surprising me every video of what he reacts to
Before she became Calliope Mori, she was known as Demon Dice. English is her primary language and she's still learning how to speak Japanese (it's not Korean). In her streams, she mentions her Sensei (that means 'teacher' in Japanese) is helping her learn Japanese.
I literally just finished bingeing all of your ERB reactions just then after discovering you from your other Calli vids. Was just wondering when I'd see another, when I open RUclips's homepage to see this.
Perfect timing, my dude.
this shit just the epitome of good vibes
5:07 well she did top charts on itunes when she debuted,
New to your channel coming from the hololive side and don't have a very developed taste in rap but have really enjoyed your break down of Mori's music!
her persona is a reaper, but in this song she's saying that we should appreciate live and be grateful with it, and to live the moment. Also, this is her ending song for her live streams which, imho, the lyric is very fitting.
I came across this guy after seeing his first reaction to Mori but now I am subbed and saw half his vids.
Hololive started in Japan with all Japanese speaking vtubers, then began to open branches in other countries and speaking other languages. They've got Indonesian and Chinese branches as well, and they just debuted their English branch this last year in September I believe.
The reason I love this song so much is because it comes so dangerously close to crossing the "4th wall" without actually crossing it. In the Vtuber world, you have your Vtuber identity and your previous life. It is taboo in many communities to talk about the past lives of Vtubers(I will probably make some people mad just by making this post) , But listening to the lyrics of this song I interpret it about her letting go of her previous identity completely and embracing the Mori identity. Her old beats arent anything to scoff at either. I wont name her deadname here, and I dont suggest reviewing them either in respect for her current identity, but it isnt hard to fall down that rabbit hole if you know where to look.
Cover Corp - the parent company - has 3 (technically 4) subsection to my knowledge. Hololive (which is Japanese) HoloID (Indonesia), HololiveEN/HoloMyth/HololiveEnglish (which is English) and Holostars, which are just 9 Japanese dudes at this time. There's auditions being held for another Hololive English subsection called HoloSingers, which I guess is going to be like a singing idol group but that's speculation on my part. I think there used to be HololiveCN (China) but they dissolved for reasons I didn't look up.
Hololive main branch is in Japan. It's part of an entertainment company called Cover Corp. They have a branch in Indonesia and now in "EN". Their China branch is closed.
This is more of an analysis than a reaction at this point. And I think that's really cool! Not a lot of reaction RUclipsrs that you can actually learn something off of.
so ive seen people react to her songs or another rapper broke down the beat and timing in the bars but im loving how deep dive you go on everything and have fun with it, cool as man i dig it, love from asutralia bro.
It's worth noting that she's really into underground hip hop and this beat/style is very Nujabes (famous japanese producer/engineer who is now deceased)
It’s not specifically Hololive but, None Like Joshua submission for her remix contest goes hard
2021 and I’m still vibing to Live Again on Spotify 😎
You should check out her new song "Cursed Night"
Let's go, now we have the more Idolish song, next reaction to her rapping Godzill?
Eh she hasn't done it seriously yet, she gonna do that at 1m subs
Isn't cursed night next?
@@lotusdream3577 actually Reaper raper is before
@@Koko-sn9in But I don’t think he will react to Reaper Rapper since it’s an intro. People rarely react to intros of any artist
@@uqi234 soooo, he won't react to Reaper Rapper that is?
Cursed Night is my favorite song by Mori. It's not rap but it's very pleasant.
Hololive is a Vtuber agency. there is Hololive (Japanese), ID (Indonesia, but they speak a lot of English), and EN.
Calli speaks mainly English and is still perfecting her Japanese
If you're digging Dead Beats the most so far, you gotta check out ReaperかRapper next. The track is...different, but it's probably some of her best bars. Also does a good job of just explaining the character too.
I fuckin' love this song, man. Also, a quick comment on something you mentioned about from her last video, but Mori ISN'T an amateur. It's considered a taboo to talk about prior identities before Vtubers' careers, but without telling you who she is I can tell you that she's been rapping professionally since 2015.
This is just her outtro song for her streams tbh. That’s probably why it’s most just a relaxed song.
Hololive is originally (and still mainly) a Japanese company. The English language branch started around September 2020. She’s based in Japan, but is a native English speaker.
She already topped on iTunes at one point
Their main base is in japanese... also this song was made for another member of the hololive english crew. Her name is Takanashi Mori
Hololive started in Japan. Calliope recently moved from America to Japan
The way I see this song is kind of an acknowledgement and loving goodbye to her gig before becoming Calliope. Vtubers, especially ones contracted by companies like Hololive, usually have entertainment backgrounds that they don't talk about since they're supposed to stay in character. I feel like this song focuses a lot on acknowledging the past "lives" so to speak, and moving forward without forgetting about them. The references to art sticking around after death really drive that note home for me, too.
In my opinion, this is one of the best ways I've seen a vtuber reference this aspect of the job, and is also a really beautiful look at the feelings associated with the "death" of an old persona while you go to "live again" as a new one.
To add some info to your question at the end, Hololive is broken up into (currently) 3 branches. Hololive/Hololive JP is the main branch based out of Japan. They are the largest branch and the original, with 32 members broken up into 7 generations (0-5 and Gamers). Hololive EN is centered on English speaking talents, and currently has 1 generation. 2 of the 5 talents are based in Japan (Kiara and Calliope), but all 5 speak primarily English on stream. Hololive ID (indonesia) is the final branch, with 2 generations and a total of 6 talents. Each one can speak English, Indonesian, and Japanese to some extent. There are also a bunch of collaborative streams involving members of different branches.
It's a wild rabbit hole to jump down, and is only a small percentage of the Vtuber scene on RUclips and Twitch.
If you have an idea about Idols and idols groups when it comes to J-pop & K-pop Hololive is a company that’s essentially the same but virtual like the Gorillaz and Hatsio Miko.
And I think that’s a reason why we do a a little bit of the floatyness with some of the songs and also the cheerleader like delivery that you’ve mentioned before and yet it’s still a little gold nugget here on RUclips.
Hololive is the general term for the company. The Company has different branches which focus on different languages/regions.
- Hololive JP is the Japanese brand which is also the Main Brand with most of their talents which are primarily speaking and singing in Japanese
- Hololive ID is the Indonesian brand which covers the Indonesian languages, English and Japanese most of them are multilingual
- Hololive EN is the English brand which is the most recent addition. They were introduced around 3-4 months ago and they speak mostly English some of them can speak Japanese like Calli hear and even used it to speak with the other members.
Yeah like what others are saying, Hololive is a japanese company and Calliope is part of their english branch, she also does karaoke streams so I would love to see your reaction to her singing some more mainstream songs
Cali high-key the most fire female rapper out there. Shes no joke either, I was skeptical about hololive girl rapping but she surprised me. So fire on every track.
Scru is slowly but surely falling deeper down the rabbit hole
wont re-re-re-re-re-explain Hololive to ya, since theres a billion other comments here :^)
but i do hope you react to Cursed Night
im also curious if you would consider watching some of the other members singing in general; not rapping, just singing covers. Gawr Gura is an incredibly talented singer especially
It just hits different
You look so happy in this one and I love that
She also nailed the eminem godzilla fast verse! You should definetly check it out.
Found you late but best reactor on the tube you got a new subscriber, keep up the good work your entertaining as hell
I'm not really a big fan of reaction videos due to the fact that usually people just start screaming and whatnot, but I absolutely love yours. You really like to pause and try to interpret the meaning of each verse whether its good or bad.
Just binged all 3 of your reaction to Calli's 3 songs. I like how you actually say what's good and what can be improved on and elaborate on it. It's very fun to watch someone who don't know about Calli and get amazed by her rapping and singing ability
If you want to hear more of Calli singing she's done an entire hour long stream where she was singing for fans. She says she's still nervous about singing, which why she raps instead. But just like her Japanese, she is practicing very hard to get better!
I love this song because of the double meaning it has, meanings to both Calliope as Calliope, and the person behind Calli.
As Calli, it's a song about how one day, she will come for you as the Reaper, and she doesn't regret that. That's simply her job, and everyone must face the Reaper at some point. She does regret being cast in "history" as evil(obviously, people don't like the idea of Death, of leaving everything behind, or their loved ones being taken away), but she doesn't want you to see it like that. She wants you to know that she watches over your life as your Mori, and knows just how precious all those moments in your life are. She wants you to realize how much more precious they are simply because of the fact that they're fleeting; they're not endless. She simply wants to walk alongside you as you experience the beauty in life, and reiterate how she's glad she can share your happiness with you as your Mori.
And then, she hopes that, when the day comes when she must stand before you as your Reaper, that you can embrace her as a friend and look back on all your precious, happy memories together, with no regrets.
As the person behind Calli, it's also got a second metaphysical meaning. Calli, like most of the talent in Hololive, has previous experience with internet streaming and being an internet personality. Before taking on the identity of Calliope Mori, she was quite a successful independent artist on RUclips. This song is her goodbye to that; thanking all of the people who have supported her up to this point, and hoping they will continue to support her as Calli. Also saying that, she hopes one day to go back to that, and hopes that there's no hard feelings about her putting that on hold while Calli's here.
I dunno why but there's something so unbelievably wholesome about watching you just jam out to the chorus on this song. It mirrors my exact reaction everytime I listen to it lmao
