Shortest explanation I can manage for those unfamiliar; Vtubers are simply streamers (or content creators) who use a digital persona instead of a face cam. This could be for a variety of reason including; safety/security (harder to dox you if they don't know who you are to begin with), comfort, marketing, fun, whatever. For this part basically think of any of the storytime youtubers from back in the day who you never saw the face of and instead used an animated "self". Same idea, just real-time. Individualized vtuber models can range anywhere in cost from ~$600usd (for something simple with limited animation) to $20k+ for very particular and highly animated models (see: Ironmouse from Vshojo or the indie vtuber Shylily). Movement and mouth tracking is generally done with a webcam for fairly basic tracking or IR for more detailed tracking of facial expressions (many use a recent-gen iphone to use its facial scanning system as tracking). Hololive is the largest agency of vtubers currently and is one of the "big 3" alongside Nijisanji (who has gotten into a significant amount of hot water over the past year or so) and Vshojo (which is a predominantly north american agency as opposed to the other two which are based in Japan but with English-speaking branches). Hololive currently has 88 active talents across 6 branches and 3 language categories, and debut their talents in "generations" of which there have been 24 to date. The CEO "Yagoo" (the face-person in Holocure Jesse kept yelling "who is that?!?" about) founded Cover Corp (the parent company of Hololive Productions) with the idea of creating "virtual idols" (see; jpop or kpop idols). It is said that every day yagoo's dream dies a little more with how degenerate some of the talents are. The way most "Corpo" (i.e. company-owned IP) vtubers work is a model is developed and a talent is found to fit that model, or the talent is found and works with the model designers and company to put together their model. Many vtubers also do original songs or song covers, reflecting the origin of "virtual idols", though some lean more into this than others (i.e. Mori Calliope who has put out 5 EP's + 3 albums and has a recording contract with Universal, or Hochimachi Suisei who has put out 2 full albums). In Holocure the "enemies" are in fact fan or mascot representations, e.g. Mori Calliope's Deadbeats and Gawr Gura's Chumbuds (aka Shrimps- a play on "simp") in stage 1, and Nekomata Okayu's Onigiri and Inugami Korone's Koronesuki (the weird poorly drawn head things in stage 2. The items, weapons, and abilities in the game are typically lore references or memes within the hololive community,such as the "plug type asacoco", introduced to hololive canon by now-former member Kiryuu Coco (their first english-fluent talent, who ended up doing a lot to bring the idea of vtubing outside of Japan) in a parody commercial for a mood-lifting-drug delivery system that is "so convenient" and just so happens to be a tail plug that looks just like her dragon tail. There is a significant amount of "lore", some of it more canonical than others, which I guess is kind of bound to happen when you have almost 90 people streaming a total of hundreds of hours a week for years. Much of it is more like "inside jokes" or memes than "lore" per se, but are still widely referenced in the community. I apologize for my lack of brevity. There's a lot to go through depending on peoples' knowledge basis in the category.
For more individual specific information: HoloMyth (english gen1): Mori Calliope (aka Calli or Dad) is "the grim reaper's apprentice". She is also a musician/rapper and puts out a significant amount of music, both covers and original. She recently made the actual ending theme for the Suicide Squad Isekai anime. She is generally very kind and fairly sarcastic but easily gets kinda sick of people's shit, and does her best to fight off her natural vulgarities to varying results. She is frequently referred to (and sometimes answers to) "Dad" because of her demeanor. Her fans are the Deadbeats; a skeleton army and also in reference to her music career. (I highly recommend checking out "Off with their heads" and "End of a Life" for two very different examples of her original music) Ninomae Ina'nis (aka Ina) is a "priestess of the Ancient Ones". She's very much chill streams on the 2nd monitor type of vibes, with a soft voice and bad puns. She often does art streams and did some of the original marketing art for her genmates. Her fans are the Takodachi. Semi-amorphous purple blob-octopus-things. "WAH" is a kind of catch-all catchphrase that can mean many things, but is often "we are happy". "The forbidden WAH" is less happy and more... horny. Takanashi Kiara (aka Kiwawa) is a "phoenix" (totally not a chicken). She's tri(?)lingual, originally from Austria (thus, German as the mother-tongue) and fluent in both English and (for the most part) Japanese. She is a frequent pusher of various "ships". She is a hell of a dancer and is frequently the catalyst for collaborations. Her fans are the always overworked employees of her fast food restaurant KFP (Kiara Fried Phoenix). Gawr Gura (aka Gooba/Goomba) is a "shark person from Atlantis." She is currently the most-subscribed member of Hololive (not just EN) and gives a lot of... troublemaker little sister vibes? She's not dumb, but some moments make everyone question that (see; her minecraft 2x2 moment, or her "1 to 6" moment alongside Kiara). Her fans are the Chumbuds; semi-anthropomorphic shrimp (sometimes called "shrimps" as in "simp"). Amelia Watson (aka Ame - read ah-may) is "totally not a sherlock holmes parody". She recently semi-graduated (i.e. "semi-retired") from hololive, but was definitely the most "gamer" of HoloMyth; being pretty decent in several FPS games, and a frequent spouter of "your mom" jokes, and generally a bit of a prankster often t Calli's chagrin. She has also been the most tech-literate of Myth, frequently helping the others with their tech issues. Her fans are the "teamates".
Okayu's fanbase are called Onigiryan. Also in my opinion what happen on stream and the memes is the actual lore and what people called "lore" is just the character's backstory.
I would add that Tokino Sora their first talent and A-Chan the lady with the purple hair who runs the shop in this game along with Yagoo are who started hololive. Sora had a dream of becoming an idol and her best friend A-Chan while trying to get equipment found Cover Corp Who had the equipment. So Yagoo decided to give this idol thing a chance. Yagoo is also best girl. He's legitimately a really nice dude who cares about the talents and the people who work for him.
hololive universe is a thing. the sad thing is, vtuber as a whole thing, is actually like normal youtube stuff. has genre, and even each genre has its own groups too. but, vtubers nowadays trying so hard to copy hololive. like.. WHY. hololive with their lore, is because THEY HAVE THEIR OWN UNIVERSE. and also they're idol company. while those independent and small group vtubers don't have such roleplay universe thingy. and not idol company. it's like... imagine comicbook as the base, is just a free canvas. has genre and artstyle. but since marvel and DC are the most popular comicbook in the west, many west ppl trying to make comic book like them. like superhero comics. and with that kind of artstyle and font. YOU DONT NEED TO COPY MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE. BECAUSE YOU DONT HAVE SUCH A HUGE STUFF. and genre in comic world is huge. fantasy, romance, slice of life, etc edit; for example, some vtubers out there probably making their lore to be like.. 'im the princess of X kingdom' from which planet and universe, huh??? or.. 'im the moon goddess' which planet ??? or.. 'im an elf' from what region, sis??? you all can be just "I'm John Smith who loves gaming but this is my vtuber avatar'. just that. no need lore.
But would they be like Calli/Fauna and afraid of collabing with their streamer hero (oshi), or like Chibidoki and be all for it (Achievement Hunter alumni). But yes, I could see Jesse working well with the sultrier vTubers, because they'd make the same jokes.
@@oreohunter7798 I got Vampire Survivors first but after playing Holocure I can't really go back. I've played a couple of the survivor type games now and I always get frustrated by the lack of control (DRG: Survivor being another). It actually was a major motivation for my current game project I am working on.
Holocure lotterally ruined the genre for me. I just wish I could give the dev money but I respect the hell out of him for not wanting to be payed for it.
Yeah. Ina is awesome. People like her are pretty rare. I mean... getting stuck on Radahn for over 3 hours with "go next" attitude instead of raging like Markiplier is not something everyone can do and that's why she's interesting to watch.
@@alesthra yeah. it's really rare for me to even have non rage moments where i'm losing for hours. *only time i did i think was against that sentinel at the start of the game and i just wanted to challenge myself *i don't play souls like games
@@ervinaspetrauskas1716 souls games are interesting. They look hard at first but...there's always an option to overlevel and cheese bosses. Remember beating father Gascoigne in Bloodborne by trapping him in place where he can't reach me. Elden ring has overpowered spells. Sure it'd frustrating to fight same boss for hours, but with little bit of exploration online, right build, skills or cheese mechanics and boss is beaten. Sure souls games aren't for everyone. People tend to rage, but point is, there's always a way to make your experience easier. Still, what's basically impossible is ..to stay calm like Ina
As a takodachi it makes me so happy that Ina is your favorite even without knowing anything about her outside the game, also I love that you made so many 'horny' jokes without even coming across Marine, the "17 years old (2nd season)" horny pirate girl
Waiting for the inevitable comment explaining every last question asked, but to answer one major one: nearly all the enemies are modeled after the fan mascots of the various talents added in a given update (a few exceptions)
The only Hololive VTubers I've ever seen or had any exposure to are Korone and Gura, unless you count Kizuna Ai (not Hololive, and 'not a person' - the gimmick being that she's supposedly an actual AI). I absolutely love HoloCure. My favorite "Survivors"-like, and that includes Vampire Survivors itself.
Jesse: Think of the Yogscast. Then gender-swap their roster. Amp up their gimmicks a little more, to Pro Wrestling tier. Then franchise them a lot. A lot.
Old Yogscast, specifically. Current Yogscast is just IRL Simon/Lewis/Duncan/Sips/Ravs/Rythian/Zylush/Nilesy/the new people/etc, but exaggerated and dumped into the world of the games they play. Old Yogscast they played characters.
And to think, Jesse is getitng into this 2 WEEKS before a major update (0.7) where they are adding 9 more holomembers (hololive 3rd and 4th gens, minus Rushia), the Pekora casino, a fandom fightclub/training/racing thing, more stages, even more gimmicks, more wepaons/colabs and the massively spruced up main hub UI... It's gunna blow his mind when they releases
Shame they didn't add Rushia, ignoring her controversy, a Necromancer character would have been a lot of fun to play as also her character model was adorable and would likely have looked even cuter with this games art style.
I swear that Holocure is the most effective marketing Hololive has... It pulled me in just trying to figure out all the inside jokes and now another :P (In all honesty though it is a REALLY good game, probably my favourite vampire survivors clone out there, and the creators have stated they have no intentions of ever making money off of it in spite of hololive now having a way for indie devs to make money off of hololive fan games) Jump down the Hololore rabbit hole Jesse! You know you want to :P
Kaela is essentially the God Emperor of Mankind before he became GEoM, Just a messianic figure that absolutely destroys every game she plays and will always help others when she can(though only if she feels like it, and she's also prone to bullying others should she thinks it'll be funny 😂)
@@Segmented Wait really?!? That's awesome! I used to watch Jesse, Dodger, and TB back in the day and in the last couple of years I fell into the vtuber rabbit hole. Seeing Jesse enamored with this game was a crossover I was not expecting but am quite chuffed by haha
@@legomacinnisincWould TB be pro vTuber in theory, based on its greater separation of streamer and viewer, reducing parasociality, or anti vTuber, based on the tendency to pander and promote fanboy/fangirlism (and of course All Fanboys Must Die). I think probably weakly pro, on the grounds it allows female streamers a way to stream without being judged on personal appearance only, as the avatar takes that role. Man, I wish we could have had a video essay from him on that, if only he hadn't been taken from us so young.
Wow, this is a clash of worlds i didn't expect. Ancient watcher from co-optional podcast days and currently thoroughly down the Hololive rabbit hole. Welcome Jesse, enjoy the stay!
Hololive lore is a strange beast one part jrpg one part 90s wrestling gimics one part slice of life anime combined with a fandom that sits in chat and forces every random detail to mesh with the lore wether the vtuber wants it or not Also, if I wanted to recommend someone to chat about vtubers and hololive I’d say koefficiant would also be a good resource as he knows when to break the fourth wall and not and the weirdnesses of the community
@@dragb9284 lol chattini keep trying despite her saying no repeatedly much like the twins and the constant mentioning of do not touch the ears do not touch the tail lol
I still call them bullet hell for very obvious reasons, you are dodging objects that want to close in on you and hurt you and to stop this you shoot them. Don't be wonderbot and think you are more intellectual than the rest. Bullet hell originate from the space ship shooters that date all the way back to supernintendo and ALL of those had enemy ships/aliens try to crash into you physically with you trying to shoot them down.
There's all of the vtuber stuff going on and that's fun, but honestly, I'm still impressed that HoloCure feels to me like it just improves on the Vampire Survivors gameplay formula in the right ways without having to deviate too far. I love that every character is distinct with their own unique weapon and with unique skills that don't take up slots. I like the variation in enemy patterns. I like ending on defeating a boss with its own attack patterns at the 20m mark in the default stage mode.
The monsters you fight are generally the different forms of Chat that the Holo VTubers give them, either that or the in-jokes that developed over streams. Then the attacks or upgrades are also just more jokes or references developed over the talent's careers, example Korone and her initial grasp of English was just amazing clip fodder which developed X potato and her playthrough of Limbo made the Yubi joke.
@@cryomancer2768 Yeah she was wondering how to make a good catchphrase and jokingly suggested that she demanded the fingers of her viewers and it pretty much stuck from there. The Limbo clip popularized the joke in the form of quick entertainment.
Of the things I expected to see from Jesse, this was not one of them. But I'm very happy it happened and I hope he keeps enjoying and uploading Holocure, especially when the update comes out.
I kinda love that you fell into this, haha. Honestly, Koe and Naggz are good options, but you did talk to Ironmouse about doing her talk show a time back, you could talk to her too!
Oh boy, the forbidden wah, that's a reference. Basically, there's a bunch of WAHs. We Are Happy for example. The forbidden WAH is 'we are h***y'. Hence that face.
It's the 4th time an interpretation of the holy catchphrase's 3 letters was divinely inspired by chat. And then the 4th W.A.H. was sealed away by Ina for being NSFW.
jesse and hololive is not something I expect. Imagining a collaboration is too scary. But I think Koefficient (youtuber) might be willing to explain an untrained initiate the lore of hololive
Yes!! This community is fantastic and super welcoming, hope you dive deeper and reach out to have someone on Geekenders! Calliope (the rapping reaper) has been on podcasts before so it's very much possible 😊
Jesse if you are serious about doing a lore deep dive you should talk to Koefficient or Nagzz21, both are twitch streamers who've sort of carved out that niche.
Here is some lore for Jesse. Watch the MV called Chimera by Takanashi Kiara, and press 4 to jump to a specific point in the video. I assure you its critical to the plot.
The first 5 girls belong to the first generation of Hololive English. I'm going to describe them to you in 3 words: 💛Amelia: "Time Travel Detective" 💙Gura: "Dumb Shark Loli" 💜Ina: "Wholesome Tentacle Priestess" 🖤Calli: "Rapper Grim Reaper" 🧡Kiara: "Aggressively Gay Chicken" Actual Lore: They are basically a group of mythical beings that were being investigated by the time traveler detective Amelia Watson, Gura is a shark girl from the ancient lost civilization of atlantis, Ina is the priestess of the cult of the Ancient One (AO-chan) a creature that could destroy the universe or something, Calli is the grim reaper's apprentice but she is currently on hiatus and no longer harvest souls, lastly we have Kiara who is a phoenix running a fast food restaurant and she flirts with all the other girls, not just these four, all the members of hololive are targets for this hot, thirsty bird. If you want to know anything about a specific girl let me know, I can sum them all up in three words or give the full lore when I am not at work.
Just a little sidenote. Hololive had a night dedicated to them at an L.A. Dodgers game this past summer. Hololive is kind of a big deal. The little shark girl, Gura, has over 4M subs on RUclips.
Dodger actually streamed Holocure and said that she already knew the game dev from a previous work with Strippin lol. She was hoping to get Kay on the podcast at some point
Not gonna lie, coming from someone who tries to farm leaderboard top 100 spots, you are doing pretty darn good for being new and not having full upgrades unlocked.
I am so impressed with how united the Hololive community is! Welcome! As I always tell everyone: If you have any questions, you can ask them and the community will explain them to you in the best way possible! There may be easter eggs that are difficult to explain because Hololive has been in the industry for years and one joke can snowball. If you have patience we will try our best and even look for links to current clips if we find them. Everything in the game has references both small and giant. The community loves reactions. If you want to post them, feel free. Good game and if anything we are here to help you on this journey! Good luck (you will need it)😊
Oh no It stars as “i dont know what im seeing but im just here for vibes.” And before you know it, youre neck deep in merch and signed up for japanese courses at the community college
as hilarious as that is to imagine with Jesse i don't think it will happen lol. Look at Maximillian Dood, played the Hololive fighting game when it came out, everyone in the comment sections said you are going to fall into the rabbit hole, and nothing came from it.
Unironically I think he would have a good vibe with Calliope Mori, AND she has knowledge of the lore. Id have suggested Ame if she was still around. Edit: Amelia Watson is graduated. That character isn't around anymore. Regardless of how fans feel about it, Doob can't talk about anything related to a past life.
Ame is not graduated, the character still exists and is still part of Hololive for the purposes of collabs. It's just not the streamer's main channel anymore.
59:40 With the literal decade plus of Cox and Crendor in the Morning.... A Cox Survivor game would actually work. Guy Hero battling through waves of Florida Men before the big boss battle with thee Tito Watts anyone?
As a long time Hololive and Jesse fan, this is amazing to see him be so curious about everything even with no prior knowledge. Also havent heard about Fujimora Pantsu in a long time, since the Terraria with TB days!
Y'know... I used to watch Jesse when he did his Skyrim playthrough many years ago and now I'm seeing him play HoloCure and it's surreal beyond belief (in a good way).
"Does Hololive have lore?" Yes. More than four years' worth, multiplied by over 80 individual members -- plus the CEO, A-chan, Nodoka, the various staff members, and all the clippers. Heck, even the _fans_ themselves have contributed directly to the lore via the innumerable comments in chat.
It’s hilarious to hear Jesse talk about vtuber concepts and asking if that’s what a character can be. The answer is yes, vtubing has developed into a weird mix of live-streaming, pro-wrestling and anime with each vtuber basically choosing how much of each aspect they want to include into the whole presentation.
All the dudes you are killing, is basically each fanbase personified. Stage 1: Shrimps - Vtuber gawr gura, think the fanname took more hold after she made a joke "Simp? do you mean shrimp?" iirc, before that her fans were called chumbuds. (Most fan base names started of as some form of pun) Skeletons - Calliope Mori, she is a reaper, her fans are called "Deadbeats" cus she is also a musician (rapper) so, another pun. and are drawn as skeletons. The small "ghost things" - Are The fanbase of Ninomae Inanis (More known simply as "Ina") and their fanbase is called takodachis (A pun based on the japanese word for octopus (Tako) and friend (tomodachi)) so yes, while they look like ghosts they are more chibi octopus. There is obv a ton more, but ive written more than needs to be said. Edit: im only at the start of the video, so maybe some of the stuff is answered in the video itself.
"Pick Dooby." "The retired one." Damn some of your chat just be throwin' out names expecting you to know everything. I think you can maybe do a stream of HoloCure with Koefficient and you guys can chat. He can probably answer most of your questions without being confusing. This makes me wanna jump into HoloCure again, honestly. Might not be able to wait for the update at all.
If you want deep lore, go talk to Koefficient I'm sure he'd collab with you in an instant. The new update 0.7 is on the 15th I think and I can't wait, the casino is going to suck so much time out of my life.
OMG what a week I've had but now, i have not laughed so much in such a short time. This was so much fun, seeing him not know anything about our girls but loving every moment. This was so much fun!
the enemies are personifications/characterizations of the idols fans and mascots, each idol has their own unique fan bases and sub groups, thus the massive amounts of enemy varieties because there's also a huge variety of idols in holocure and they are gonna add more.
I'm glad that this game is getting more eyes on it not just from hololive or vtuber fans because apart from being a vtuber centered game its really REALLY well made! Also I'm just glad hololive is spreading even more!
Don't let this game distract you from the fact that Pekora bought a freaking monkey.
A FAQING MONKEY!

Welcome to the rabbit hole, Jesse. Hololive does have lore - and some of it is even stranger than Remedyverse.
Where is the Jesse Cox lore deep dive on Hololive lore? I expect Pepe Silvia tier entertainment.
Well, yeah, most of it is being made up live in a stream of consciousness. Of course it's gonna be weird.
hololive universe is a thing.
the sad thing is, vtuber as a whole thing, is actually like normal youtube stuff. has genre, and even each genre has its own groups too.
but, vtubers nowadays trying so hard to copy hololive. like.. WHY.
hololive with their lore, is because THEY HAVE THEIR OWN UNIVERSE. and also they're idol company.
while those independent and small group vtubers don't have such roleplay universe thingy. and not idol company.
it's like... imagine comicbook as the base, is just a free canvas. has genre and artstyle.
but since marvel and DC are the most popular comicbook in the west, many west ppl trying to make comic book like them. like superhero comics. and with that kind of artstyle and font.
YOU DONT NEED TO COPY MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE. BECAUSE YOU DONT HAVE SUCH A HUGE STUFF. and genre in comic world is huge. fantasy, romance, slice of life, etc
edit; for example, some vtubers out there probably making their lore to be like.. 'im the princess of X kingdom' from which planet and universe, huh???
or.. 'im the moon goddess' which planet ???
or.. 'im an elf' from what region, sis???
you all can be just "I'm John Smith who loves gaming but this is my vtuber avatar'. just that. no need lore.
When he finds out Haachama is a rabbit hole within a rabbit hole...
There is lore, but there is no canon.
The funny thing is, there's a non-zero chance some of the Hololive girls grew up watching Jesse and his RUclips peers.
But would they be like Calli/Fauna and afraid of collabing with their streamer hero (oshi), or like Chibidoki and be all for it (Achievement Hunter alumni).
But yes, I could see Jesse working well with the sultrier vTubers, because they'd make the same jokes.
definitely fauna
You can't tell me Gura and Ame didn't watch yogscast.
Given how many of the EN girls list FF14 among their favorite games I bet some of them at least have seen his Shadowbringers vids too lol
I'm pretty sure Fauna has talked about watching him back in the day. Reminiscing about early 2010s youtube is a recurring theme on her streams
28:29
*points at Haachama*
"What's this girl's deal?"
Dude, just... no. Just let it go.
Its like dabbling with warp magic. You just dont do it
Wait until he flind out shen
great at building in minecraft
What living in Australia does to a mf
That's about the deepest lore in Holo honestly xD
"Look i'll give you a link and you decide yourself if you wanna get out off there okay?"
Me, everytime my friend asking what is spider cooking
I need Naggz and Koe to make a video with this man and explain the lore and inside jokes. Please.
oh boi
This! would love to see a new streamer introduced
I literally came to the comments to suggest this same thing. It would be amazing
Funny that this is already the 4th streamer who is falling down the rabbit hole thanks to this game! Lol😅😅😅
*Golden Yagoo runs by
Jesse: What is that?
Koefficient: That is the best girl.
Unironically, Holocure is the best "survivor" game on the market, including Vampire Survivors, and it's fricken free!
People are begging to pay Kay, but he refuses, the utter bastard..
I was actually disappointed when I bought vampire survivors after playing Holocure, I was hoping for more control of the character besides movement.
@@oreohunter7798 I got Vampire Survivors first but after playing Holocure I can't really go back. I've played a couple of the survivor type games now and I always get frustrated by the lack of control (DRG: Survivor being another). It actually was a major motivation for my current game project I am working on.
Holocure lotterally ruined the genre for me. I just wish I could give the dev money but I respect the hell out of him for not wanting to be payed for it.
It's called bullet heaven, but okay.
‘I don’t even know who this person is and I absolutely love her’
That’s just the default for Ina
there's We Adore Her for a reason
Yeah. Ina is awesome. People like her are pretty rare. I mean... getting stuck on Radahn for over 3 hours with "go next" attitude instead of raging like Markiplier is not something everyone can do and that's why she's interesting to watch.
@@alesthra yeah. it's really rare for me to even have non rage moments where i'm losing for hours. *only time i did i think was against that sentinel at the start of the game and i just wanted to challenge myself *i don't play souls like games
@@ervinaspetrauskas1716 souls games are interesting. They look hard at first but...there's always an option to overlevel and cheese bosses. Remember beating father Gascoigne in Bloodborne by trapping him in place where he can't reach me. Elden ring has overpowered spells. Sure it'd frustrating to fight same boss for hours, but with little bit of exploration online, right build, skills or cheese mechanics and boss is beaten. Sure souls games aren't for everyone. People tend to rage, but point is, there's always a way to make your experience easier. Still, what's basically impossible is ..to stay calm like Ina
As a takodachi it makes me so happy that Ina is your favorite even without knowing anything about her outside the game, also I love that you made so many 'horny' jokes without even coming across Marine, the "17 years old (2nd season)" horny pirate girl
better yet senchou is in the next update, lol
20th season, not 2nd.
3 days left until her arrival
Waiting for the inevitable comment explaining every last question asked, but to answer one major one: nearly all the enemies are modeled after the fan mascots of the various talents added in a given update (a few exceptions)
The character abilities and itens are based on the character lore or Easter eggs of their streaming moments or behaviour.
So you are saying Jesse would have a skill named "Hello Boys!" Or "The Big JC"?
@@blackjacktrial or an ult where dodger shows up to assist named "Geekenders" etc
@@Sobepome Geekenders would be the collab (fusion between two items)
The title cracks me up, "Does Hololive have LORE?"
That must be the understatement of the last 5 years, I swear.
you always know a fangame is excellent when people who have no connection to the community enjoy it because it's so solid
The only Hololive VTubers I've ever seen or had any exposure to are Korone and Gura, unless you count Kizuna Ai (not Hololive, and 'not a person' - the gimmick being that she's supposedly an actual AI). I absolutely love HoloCure. My favorite "Survivors"-like, and that includes Vampire Survivors itself.
@@MCOmegaX123 Eh, since when does Kizuna Ai promotes herself as an AI?
@stephen01king That was literally the whole story around her channel when she started out. Better question is when did she stip?
@@MCOmegaX123 Wow, didn't know that.
Jesse:
Think of the Yogscast.
Then gender-swap their roster.
Amp up their gimmicks a little more, to Pro Wrestling tier.
Then franchise them a lot.
A lot.
That... makes sense. WHY DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?!?
Old Yogscast, specifically. Current Yogscast is just IRL Simon/Lewis/Duncan/Sips/Ravs/Rythian/Zylush/Nilesy/the new people/etc, but exaggerated and dumped into the world of the games they play. Old Yogscast they played characters.
@MCOmegaX123 The real y
Yogscast died after Flux Buddies.
@@JoshSweetvale Ah, I see you're a man of culture.
Gender swaps Strippin - it's just Doogs?
And to think, Jesse is getitng into this 2 WEEKS before a major update (0.7) where they are adding 9 more holomembers (hololive 3rd and 4th gens, minus Rushia), the Pekora casino, a fandom fightclub/training/racing thing, more stages, even more gimmicks, more wepaons/colabs and the massively spruced up main hub UI... It's gunna blow his mind when they releases
Fandom thing looks like Chao Garden from SA2.
Coco my beloved
Shame they didn't add Rushia, ignoring her controversy, a Necromancer character would have been a lot of fun to play as also her character model was adorable and would likely have looked even cuter with this games art style.
@@HassanSabbaku To be fair both Ina and Choco have gimmicks based on converting enemies which is pretty similar
I swear that Holocure is the most effective marketing Hololive has... It pulled me in just trying to figure out all the inside jokes and now another :P (In all honesty though it is a REALLY good game, probably my favourite vampire survivors clone out there, and the creators have stated they have no intentions of ever making money off of it in spite of hololive now having a way for indie devs to make money off of hololive fan games)
Jump down the Hololore rabbit hole Jesse! You know you want to :P
Yubi yubi?
Even though hololive offered him to make money from the game before the official policy even existed.
Holocure pretty much paved the way for the holo indie game program
@@stroodlepup Shuba shubaaa!
@@joelmichaelviado1226 True that
"I'm the best player of this game!"
>Kaela has entered the chat.
Wait until more of the gaming world encounters that monster
Kaela is essentially the God Emperor of Mankind before he became GEoM, Just a messianic figure that absolutely destroys every game she plays and will always help others when she can(though only if she feels like it, and she's also prone to bullying others should she thinks it'll be funny 😂)
11:16 "Who are these jelly donut men?" Got me good.
Jesse is a Takodachi confirmed.
WAH

Can't continue the streak. We Are Here.

petition to get Kay Yu on geekenders to drag both of them down the rabbit hole completely
Dodger has already said she is going to ask him. They already knew him.
@@Segmented kay had been to her house
@@Segmented Wait really?!? That's awesome!
I used to watch Jesse, Dodger, and TB back in the day and in the last couple of years I fell into the vtuber rabbit hole. Seeing Jesse enamored with this game was a crossover I was not expecting but am quite chuffed by haha
@@legomacinnisincKay did emotes or stream assets for Sam ages ago
@@legomacinnisincWould TB be pro vTuber in theory, based on its greater separation of streamer and viewer, reducing parasociality, or anti vTuber, based on the tendency to pander and promote fanboy/fangirlism (and of course All Fanboys Must Die).
I think probably weakly pro, on the grounds it allows female streamers a way to stream without being judged on personal appearance only, as the avatar takes that role.
Man, I wish we could have had a video essay from him on that, if only he hadn't been taken from us so young.
Wow, this is a clash of worlds i didn't expect. Ancient watcher from co-optional podcast days and currently thoroughly down the Hololive rabbit hole. Welcome Jesse, enjoy the stay!
The game is about to get a huge update next week too, just in time for the casino to open
Hololive lore is a strange beast one part jrpg one part 90s wrestling gimics one part slice of life anime combined with a fandom that sits in chat and forces every random detail to mesh with the lore wether the vtuber wants it or not
Also, if I wanted to recommend someone to chat about vtubers and hololive I’d say koefficiant would also be a good resource as he knows when to break the fourth wall and not and the weirdnesses of the community
Yeah Koefficient would be the perfect person to chat with to understand stuff. And he's also a Holocure junkie too.
I mean yeah just look at the panther and the ongoing war she has with her fans over jet packs and the constantly evolving lore there
@@dragb9284 lol chattini keep trying despite her saying no repeatedly much like the twins and the constant mentioning of do not touch the ears do not touch the tail lol
Koe or Nagzz are the best options
Oh this sweet innocent boy just throwing open Pandora's box like it's nobody's business.
I genuinely think that HoloCure is the best bullet heaven game. The specials and how different everyone plays is great.
I still call them bullet hell for very obvious reasons, you are dodging objects that want to close in on you and hurt you and to stop this you shoot them. Don't be wonderbot and think you are more intellectual than the rest. Bullet hell originate from the space ship shooters that date all the way back to supernintendo and ALL of those had enemy ships/aliens try to crash into you physically with you trying to shoot them down.
There's all of the vtuber stuff going on and that's fun, but honestly, I'm still impressed that HoloCure feels to me like it just improves on the Vampire Survivors gameplay formula in the right ways without having to deviate too far. I love that every character is distinct with their own unique weapon and with unique skills that don't take up slots. I like the variation in enemy patterns. I like ending on defeating a boss with its own attack patterns at the 20m mark in the default stage mode.
Yeah its such an accomplishment
I'd be shocked (and slightly disappointed) if no one in the chat described Yagoo as "the Yoshi-P of hololive"
I am so on board for Jesse discovering vtuber content. I unironically think he would love them if he gave them a chance.
The monsters you fight are generally the different forms of Chat that the Holo VTubers give them, either that or the in-jokes that developed over streams. Then the attacks or upgrades are also just more jokes or references developed over the talent's careers, example Korone and her initial grasp of English was just amazing clip fodder which developed X potato and her playthrough of Limbo made the Yubi joke.
Nah the yubi joke was from the scuffed debut stream that became a splatoon let's play with gamers.
@@cryomancer2768 Yeah she was wondering how to make a good catchphrase and jokingly suggested that she demanded the fingers of her viewers and it pretty much stuck from there. The Limbo clip popularized the joke in the form of quick entertainment.
@@cooldude9798 Ahh didn't know that....or forgot could be either/or at this point, thanks for the correction though.
Please someone send him some nice Ina clips. Wah.
Wah
Wah
WAH
Wah!... the 4th? oh noe!
WAHLUGi
Of the things I expected to see from Jesse, this was not one of them. But I'm very happy it happened and I hope he keeps enjoying and uploading Holocure, especially when the update comes out.
'Let me just show you this really quickly.' And it's a two hour VOD.
1:50 "I don't know who I am. I don't know why I'm here. All I know is that I must kill [anime critters]."
I kinda love that you fell into this, haha. Honestly, Koe and Naggz are good options, but you did talk to Ironmouse about doing her talk show a time back, you could talk to her too!
Mousey is a big Holo fan, very wholesome
Oh boy, the forbidden wah, that's a reference. Basically, there's a bunch of WAHs. We Are Happy for example. The forbidden WAH is 'we are h***y'. Hence that face.
It's the 4th time an interpretation of the holy catchphrase's 3 letters was divinely inspired by chat.
And then the 4th W.A.H. was sealed away by Ina for being NSFW.
@@JoshSweetvaleUntil she was gone long enough for chaos to reign. Then she came BACK!
Ina's back? Ina's back!
@@Juan-Deringit got on trending is the best bit. The most blursed tag was on trending.
jesse and hololive is not something I expect. Imagining a collaboration is too scary. But I think Koefficient (youtuber) might be willing to explain an untrained initiate the lore of hololive
Yes!! This community is fantastic and super welcoming, hope you dive deeper and reach out to have someone on Geekenders! Calliope (the rapping reaper) has been on podcasts before so it's very much possible 😊
Chat: The retired one
Jesse: Which one retired?
Holofans: T_T
As a long time fan of Jesse and a more recent fan of Hololive, I am enjoying this crossover immensely.
Jesse if you are serious about doing a lore deep dive you should talk to Koefficient or Nagzz21, both are twitch streamers who've sort of carved out that niche.
Their also funny creators on their own merits, especially Nagzz, Koe is more pigeonholed into Fighting games but luckily he's expanding.
35:20, Jesse unknowingly describes Pekora.
My favorite youtuber of all time and my obsession since the pandemic era together, this is magnificent
Adding my voice to the choir of people urging you to talk to Nagzz21 and Koefficient for a breakdown of all things Hololive
Count my voice too
Watching Jesse play this is like watching me discover vtubers in fast forward.
I have a feeling Fauna might have watched Jesse, particularly when he was still on good terms with the Yogscast.
And when Egg was on Co-Optional!
No Jesse.. Cast it into the fire! There is no going back once you set upon that dark kawai road.
Here is some lore for Jesse. Watch the MV called Chimera by Takanashi Kiara, and press 4 to jump to a specific point in the video. I assure you its critical to the plot.
Red haired girls - Jesse would probably have loved Coco too.
@@blackjacktrial Good thing she'll be in the next update ;)
The first 5 girls belong to the first generation of Hololive English. I'm going to describe them to you in 3 words:
💛Amelia: "Time Travel Detective"
💙Gura: "Dumb Shark Loli"
💜Ina: "Wholesome Tentacle Priestess"
🖤Calli: "Rapper Grim Reaper"
🧡Kiara: "Aggressively Gay Chicken"
Actual Lore:
They are basically a group of mythical beings that were being investigated by the time traveler detective Amelia Watson, Gura is a shark girl from the ancient lost civilization of atlantis, Ina is the priestess of the cult of the Ancient One (AO-chan) a creature that could destroy the universe or something, Calli is the grim reaper's apprentice but she is currently on hiatus and no longer harvest souls, lastly we have Kiara who is a phoenix running a fast food restaurant and she flirts with all the other girls, not just these four, all the members of hololive are targets for this hot, thirsty bird.
If you want to know anything about a specific girl let me know, I can sum them all up in three words or give the full lore when I am not at work.
Just a little sidenote. Hololive had a night dedicated to them at an L.A. Dodgers game this past summer. Hololive is kind of a big deal. The little shark girl, Gura, has over 4M subs on RUclips.
Jesse being a unwitting takodachi is so fitting
8:10 Well now...we'll be here all day for that one, my friend
Should've known Jesse would be a takodachi
Jesse isn't falling into the rabbit hole. This man is running full sprint and diving into the hole. 😂
one of us
one of us
one of us
ONE. OF. US.
Jesse doing the mom pun while playing Ame made me laugh so hard. XD
Bro this is prolly one of the best F2P fan made games ever made! Shout out to Kay Yu the creator!
4:33 me too man, me too. Her backstory is great 👍
58:05 BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEG
Sana ain't just eternal. Sana's overpowered. :D
I hope you can invite Vtubers to the Geekenders podcast! Vshojo and / or Hololive could be great guests.
They have had SummersSalt and KelliSiren on, both vtubers.
@omfgblondie ok, I will watch those episodes.
@@Dracobyte I'm fairly certain it wouldn't take too much effort to get Calli on. Miss Affable Podcast Guest; the Vtuber 😅
Dodger actually streamed Holocure and said that she already knew the game dev from a previous work with Strippin lol. She was hoping to get Kay on the podcast at some point
@TheAnfauglith good news!
Who's gonna tell Jesse about the Plug-type Asacoco?
Or what the books are?
no one, it's funnier that way
Not gonna lie, coming from someone who tries to farm leaderboard top 100 spots, you are doing pretty darn good for being new and not having full upgrades unlocked.
I am so impressed with how united the Hololive community is!
Welcome!
As I always tell everyone:
If you have any questions, you can ask them and the community will explain them to you in the best way possible!
There may be easter eggs that are difficult to explain because Hololive has been in the industry for years and one joke can snowball. If you have patience we will try our best and even look for links to current clips if we find them.
Everything in the game has references both small and giant.
The community loves reactions. If you want to post them, feel free.
Good game and if anything we are here to help you on this journey! Good luck (you will need it)😊
Oh no
It stars as “i dont know what im seeing but im just here for vibes.” And before you know it, youre neck deep in merch and signed up for japanese courses at the community college
as hilarious as that is to imagine with Jesse i don't think it will happen lol. Look at Maximillian Dood, played the Hololive fighting game when it came out, everyone in the comment sections said you are going to fall into the rabbit hole, and nothing came from it.
Unironically I think he would have a good vibe with Calliope Mori, AND she has knowledge of the lore. Id have suggested Ame if she was still around.
Edit: Amelia Watson is graduated. That character isn't around anymore. Regardless of how fans feel about it, Doob can't talk about anything related to a past life.
Ame doko
I mean, she kind of do be around still
@@adlez47 she doo, by some miracle
@@Speederzzz This information might look sort of doobyous, but I'm pretty sure it's true.
Ame is not graduated, the character still exists and is still part of Hololive for the purposes of collabs. It's just not the streamer's main channel anymore.
59:40 With the literal decade plus of Cox and Crendor in the Morning.... A Cox Survivor game would actually work. Guy Hero battling through waves of Florida Men before the big boss battle with thee Tito Watts anyone?
As a long time Hololive and Jesse fan, this is amazing to see him be so curious about everything even with no prior knowledge. Also havent heard about Fujimora Pantsu in a long time, since the Terraria with TB days!
Maybe playing as Gura will help Jesse conquer his fears
true. no one can be scared of gura. she cant even do math!
Y'know... I used to watch Jesse when he did his Skyrim playthrough many years ago and now I'm seeing him play HoloCure and it's surreal beyond belief (in a good way).
Fujimora Pantsu returns when we need him the most.
as someone that knows a fair bit about hololive its fun to see cox trying to figure out the lore and is just generally confused :)
Mori would absolutely be on the podcast and would probably love to talk about the girls
14:07 my soul got obliterated seeing one if not the best stamp in the game being destroyed like that
Welcome to the rabbit hole. I recommend koefficient for your vtuber lore related needs.
I have a feeling this vod will get more views than usual…
The absolute ache for a Koefficient collab to pull Jesse further into the rabbit hole!
It'd be wild to see any of the holoen crew hanging out with Jesse and Dodger.
Rin Penrose also.
Dodger, Jesse and a cynical British person. Ummm....
@@blackjacktrial Monarch and Cy yu, and I would pay to see Jesse go on a 'date' with Porcelian Maid :D
Realistically only ones I see possibly doing this are Ollie or Calli.
I been looking forward to this video since you mention it on geekenders!
"Does Hololive have lore?"
Yes. More than four years' worth, multiplied by over 80 individual members -- plus the CEO, A-chan, Nodoka, the various staff members, and all the clippers.
Heck, even the _fans_ themselves have contributed directly to the lore via the innumerable comments in chat.
The Lore probably started around the time Haachama started her Horror arc, which was a few months before even IRyS debuted.
It’s hilarious to hear Jesse talk about vtuber concepts and asking if that’s what a character can be. The answer is yes, vtubing has developed into a weird mix of live-streaming, pro-wrestling and anime with each vtuber basically choosing how much of each aspect they want to include into the whole presentation.
Thank you Jesse for playing Holocure.
the good thing is every character has a unique playstyle that makes the game not boring to play
I'm glad you've given this game a try, Jesse! I love playing this game and appreciating the hard work of the fan crew put into it!
All the dudes you are killing, is basically each fanbase personified.
Stage 1:
Shrimps - Vtuber gawr gura, think the fanname took more hold after she made a joke "Simp? do you mean shrimp?" iirc, before that her fans were called chumbuds. (Most fan base names started of as some form of pun)
Skeletons - Calliope Mori, she is a reaper, her fans are called "Deadbeats" cus she is also a musician (rapper) so, another pun. and are drawn as skeletons.
The small "ghost things" - Are The fanbase of Ninomae Inanis (More known simply as "Ina") and their fanbase is called takodachis (A pun based on the japanese word for octopus (Tako) and friend (tomodachi)) so yes, while they look like ghosts they are more chibi octopus.
There is obv a ton more, but ive written more than needs to be said.
Edit: im only at the start of the video, so maybe some of the stuff is answered in the video itself.
"Pick Dooby."
"The retired one."
Damn some of your chat just be throwin' out names expecting you to know everything. I think you can maybe do a stream of HoloCure with Koefficient and you guys can chat. He can probably answer most of your questions without being confusing.
This makes me wanna jump into HoloCure again, honestly. Might not be able to wait for the update at all.
I mean, you were warned about the reverse stamp...
Bless Jesse for giving this game more exposure. It really needs it cause it is pretty good.
I need Jesse to fall into the rabbit hole. I NEED IT
If you want deep lore, go talk to Koefficient I'm sure he'd collab with you in an instant.
The new update 0.7 is on the 15th I think and I can't wait, the casino is going to suck so much time out of my life.
8:23 Is that so?.... Ask Koefficient 👌 he is your Lore guy
Absolutely, and/or Nagzz
Neither of them are Lore guys exactly but they are Veteran Holofans so know quite a bit about Holo.
OMG what a week I've had but now, i have not laughed so much in such a short time. This was so much fun, seeing him not know anything about our girls but loving every moment. This was so much fun!
the enemies are personifications/characterizations of the idols fans and mascots, each idol has their own unique fan bases and sub groups, thus the massive amounts of enemy varieties because there's also a huge variety of idols in holocure and they are gonna add more.
This game introduced me to Hololive and I haven't left the hole since.
Glad to see the kay yu pipeline is alive and well
You must watch the 10 min lore video: Myth's Bad Ending | Hololive fan-animation
I'm glad that this game is getting more eyes on it not just from hololive or vtuber fans because apart from being a vtuber centered game its really REALLY well made!
Also I'm just glad hololive is spreading even more!
Nothing to be sad about dude, cute is cute, happiness is happiness
