![Kobo talk with her "UNDERWATER" voice, is so cute... [Hololive English Sub]](/img/n.gif)
THIS VIDEO IS A RE-UPLOAD. The original video was copyright struck, so I just removed and replaced the segment where Cover Corp took issue with.
naruhodo
No wonder I think I already seen a video that look like this...
arigatou for the reupload and editing the vid, DN-sensei! 'wishing ya all the best with future commentary and deep dives...
'am hoping that peeps continue to see the good you do by providing these deep-dives + broad strokes of various Vtubers, specifically the corporate ones~
'am in the camp of peeps who believe that everyone deserves to learn and grow and even be forgiven... There's something inhumane and cruel in being puritanical and holier-than-thou...
'also wishing ya all the best and otanoshimi to future projects... !
What was the segment they took issue with?
ah I was wondering why it was gone when I was looking for this
Kobo is not dominating Indonesia, she's dominating entire South East Asia region
She does sound pretty funny.
@@mentosvagabond and cute too
As a Filipino I don't mind being dominated by a Sassy Indonesian Rainy brat that is a little sister of the demonlord Hero
@@TheRealRaijinX now shorten it..
Cunny😭
Kobo's streaming style just feels more like a normal Indonesian streamer instead of vtuber in general
Yeah, and I'm pretty sure she's copying Windah's style is a public secret anyway (not that it's bad)
AND THATS WHAT MAKES ME LIKE HER. Its not bad to play a character and im sure kobo herself does it but she just sounds very natural at it and she seems like she is enjoying what she does! Love that.
@@smaguy64 the windah meta , many indonesian streamer use it and suck but kobo is different she add her uniquenes so its doesnt feel copycat
Kobo become popular by the force of her personality that is adorably kusogaki*, and being very talented (can sing, make up songs, know how to play some instruments). She's so endearing that she's easy to like.
My theory is that she comes off as a younger sister, the same as Gura. Another theory is that she is Blue and that would explain Pekora as well.
@@sailorman9403 she is indeed a younger sister...
Mesugaki is lewd brat. The word you're looking for is kusogaki
@@Aryazaky woops thanks for the correction
Nah its beacuse she actually use Indonesia language for most of her stream
As a non Indonesian, I always find Kobo absolutely hilarious and entertaining. Plus she's a blue kusogaki, makes you wonder why the blue brat vtubers are so popular. Nonetheless, Kobo is cute and funny, based, everyone's child, precious.
Kek, cute and funny. I see what you did there Neuron. 😭😭😭
Kobo = kobokan : a bowl filled with water to wash hands before eating
when the name is an Indonesian meme
Why I can find you everywhere? Sasuga legend
It's pretty funny how you can tell she's just an excitable girl who's more or less humble because she expected none of her success, but has to play into that bratty character she knows we love about her.
I think she is bratty at the core. I remember Reine said even in IRL she is bratty. But she know how to draw the line and apologize if she did something wrong. That's why people love her.
I still think the most amazing thing her fanbase has done was entirely defend her over the Hogwarts Legacy thing. They saw what happened with other streamers and I still love the announcement tweet by Kobo, having her fans in the comments bearing down on any twitter freaks. Brings a tear to my eye to see such dedication to their oshi.
Insulting Indonesian weebs waifu is like asking yourself to get bazooka in the head based on experience🗿
@@rivqyrabbani2757 SEA fans are a zealous and dedicated fan base that are simply built different from western fans. Respect for the mad lads.
Yeah if they even want to try to do the same to her or other Indonesian vtuber fanbase, Indonesians will do some magic, they will bring a lot if not million people they will bring hundred thousand people to spam the bullies social media accounts until they get banned.
Statistically Indonesian active internet users reach about 77% of the population, the number is insane and it is over 210 million people, and they don't take it easy if someone from overseas touches their people, culture, entertainment, idol, etc.
So with their infamous for being 'generous' to return the 'favor', others that know this often avoid enraging the mass of people for their own safety.
So i hope overseas people should watch their actions if they're dealing with Indonesian.
Isnt kobo fans kinda like nousagi? They do a lot tease their oshi but when outer circle and some freak trying to touch their oshi ... They are like those knight with armor that ready to do kamikaze
The thing about ID netizen is they will flock you if you mention their country/culture/people. You compliment them, they will give compliment back. You attack them, oh boy, I hope you have thick skin. They will witch hunt you. Not even government official is safe here.
Add that with idol fans, Kobo practically have one of the strongest and scariest fanbase in the internet. You dont want to mess with them.
Kobo kanaeru of hololive is one of the biggest risk that i've ever seen in an any business decision.
"Oh, so this girl can sing, compose her own songs, and understand local memes. But she doesn't have a computer, never had a previous stream experience, just graduated from senior high school, tries to join our world class vtuber agency? No problem. Put her in."
A large gamble that paid off hundreds of times over.
For real, though, Niji opened a branch in an untapped local market that should've been statistically makes sense (India), but they failed to make any sort of profit out of it. They really picked the right person to tap into the domestic Indonesian market. Knowledge upon the local (especially Javanese and Sumatran) meme culture is king, and Kobo delivers perfectly.
As a famous Indonesian movie once said: "Djawa adala koentji (Java is key)"
Lol
high risk, high return
@@standard-carrier-wo-chan
Niji? Cmiiw, are you saying Kobo is in Niji?
@@einzweichschein No, Kobo is HoloID. What I mean was that Nijisanji tried to shoot for a local market that should've made sense statistically, but failed.
Hololive did an equally big gamble with HoloID (To be fair, there was Niji-ID, but that's not the topic here), but while the members before Kobo managed to gain moderate success, Kobo was the one that truly tapped into that "domestic VTuber market". She's just like that one extroverted and semi-childish student any high schooler in Indonesia would have as a classmate, and her lovable personality just activates that parental instinct to tease and protect from within the many furiously proud and patriotic Indonesian internet users.
While the girl behind Kobo was never a streamer or a serious periodical content creator beforehand, she turned out to have a natural talent in VTubing, and thus the HoloID gamble truly bore fruit. Kobo shows that there's truly a worthwhile market to put more focus on ID-centric VTubing productions, instead of mainly tailoring content to EN and JP viewers.
Kobo has always been popular simply because she is based, bratty, cute and wholesome. I guess the small blue kusogakis always seem to be the most popular. Kobo is an amazing entertainer, plane and simple.
Fr when Kobo does her cry it really sounds like a brat instead of fake crying. And I can guess many of us are on the adult age group where we find child tantrums funny
Remind me after the Collab of kobo and the TH-camrs named Manca she was like cry and angry and happy at the same time
And don't forget she's talented to and i love her Talented skills
Wait? u everywhere -_-
Kobo succeeded because she finally did what the indonesian branch is made for: to speak indonesian
Also beings extremely talented and being a good streamer i mean look at the nijisanji ID branch besides mika and hana sometimes bobon alot of nijisanji ID talents spoke Indonesia but never grew thanks to mika and hana speaking more English and just not speaking Indonesia no more they grew. Look at mika subscribers compare them to the wave she debut with like no wonder why nijisanji ID kinda fell
True and of course made connection with other id famous youtuber, if on niji hana probably the 1st spark of en vtuber, kobo and niji mika is the one who try to connect with other, the different mika into en and kobo more into id, and dont forget id kid until young adult contain 2-3 million, and just for info id tv artist or actor(on the oversea they like jack black, dwayne the rock, kevin hart etc) normal got 20 million from housewive or middle age dad who like watch youtube. So yeah 2 millions without oversea fans is still like 30 - 40% id youtube watcher.
Speaking Indonesia is not enough look at nijisanji or maha5 they speaking id yet they had less fans compared to holo 1+2 that basically already control the id market
Bro it's not enough to be succesful here, trust me alot vtuber here but most of them are boring.
Niji-ID, Maha5, Re:memories, and other Indonesian agencies didn't reach the level of Kobo's boom despite them all speaking Indonesians. Kobo herself is quite unique and something from her brat and unhinge personality is what made her succeed.
I also love that the success of Kobo has given the rest of HoloID the confidence to also appeal to the ID community as well; & Hakka going full Mexican
but for real Cover's casting staff are the true MvPs
Also can you make an essay video about why Nijisanji ID failed and in other hand Hololive ID able to dominating the local market? I think this topic is quite interesting how two big agencies do their business model in Indonesia/sea. and it can be used as analysis for other agencies how they should treat the SEA market.
This would actually be interesting
Oh shit, this has been in the back of my mind for a while too
If you're talking about local market,holo ID1 and ID2 failed harder than nijisanji, it's thanks to Kobo that brings more local viewers to holo ID
This is just my opinion but I think Holo ID success start from "Hey Moona" moment, since then moona subscribers increase from around 200k to 1m real quick.
Both nijisanji and hololive id failed in dominating local market. Only kobo who have successfully dominated local market. It's just that nijisanji id keep trying to get the local market meanwhile hololive id tried but switch the strategy by mingling to international market.
Funfact: In Indonesia when theres an anime event theres always someone with a picture of Kobo printed out
Kobo also experienced some negative impact from getting famous too quickly. About one week or two after debuting she had to take a few days off to calm things down because her chat was absolutely in state of chaos. Things were getting out of hand when kobo's fans separate into two sides, Kobokers (the side who wants to support kobo) and Cebokers (the side who wants to bully kobo). They even invaded Risu's chat and other ID talents too.
However Kobo has amazing senpais that are used to things like this, leading to a few altercations where Risu, Ollie and Moona legit insulting the haters to oblivion, and given a few more weeks Kobo is already know how to deal with the "casual" indonesian viewers, and things went smoothly after that.
Good thing the solidarity between HoloID Generations is still as solid as ever, which makes things like such can be dealt with ease.
i think a bit misunderstanding here. both Kobokerz and Cebokerz are kobo's fans, the latter being made after kobo bantering with her ID-EN translator, so few Kobokerz grouped to a new faction (Cebokers) and 'bullied' her affectionately. The one who tried to actually bully her are antis and self-proclaimed fans of older gens, who intended to cause fringes in the vtubing community.
Things get murkier when the new + immature fans kept spamming other talents chats. And her being the first vtuber experiece to Indo normies, some of them dont bother reading their channel's rules, painting her and her chill fans in a bad light
I remember when Ollie collabed with her and people thought Ollie was mooching off of Kobo when Ollie was already established and had her own audience already. They sounded like they only came for Kobo and only cared because Kobo got more subs than her Senpai who was already successful in other avenues.
You are quite wrong in cebokers an kobokers those names was invenyed by the fans o their group name, but people haos over it and make two faction but both support kobo, kobokers are like the sweet sie of loving kobo, cebokers tend to tease and "bully" kobo and bantering with her in chat.
@@dontmindme402 back then it was quite murky of how cebokerz came to being, now it is quite clear that yes, both are affectionate to kobo in their own ways.
Apologize for not clearing it through.
As a Russian, I want to say that I envy the Indonesians because the Holo stay at your market - we really wanted a Russian branch of the Hololive, but unfortunately, the war ruined everything.
*brohug*
As a Cambodian, I'm proud to have kobo as our neighbour
Kaela is too mature, Zeta is like a madonna, then there is Kobo easy to approached because she's very open
or she's just like you. a brat
Isn't Kobo also quite popular with English speakers? What I think caught my attention was Kobo's fun collabs with Hololive En members. She may not speak a ton of Eng;ish but the way she speaks is cute and she makes brilliant use of facial expressions!
yeah, what if she uses a British accent, loveble
Kobo is popular too in china
@@jcguidotti5934 china? But is'n TH-cam is banned there? Instead of china I think the country that you mean is Taiwan since they speak the same language.
@@Luluskuy well kobo chinese is much better than her english and japanese so it's not a surprise she has some fanbase in Taiwan and PRC, shame she rarely use it
@@sandis7674 welp because there no need to use it, unless maybe if she have Collab with Chinese vtuber
I Was at her debut stream... you dont really need to watch other VODs or clips to know Kobo will go places beyond expectation, her debut stream alone is enough to tell you she's a kusogaki brat that everyone will love
For me, It's about her being relatable and how she make jokes. It's not only because she mostly speaks Indonesian, It's more because of how she is entertaining as an Indonesian, and how her jokes are similar to some popular indo streamers. That's probably also what made some normies got interested into her, thus making her being able to get a monstrous amount of subs as an indo vtuber in such a very small amount of time.
Other than that, her singing voice is no doubt amazing.
She's one of the very few vtubers I like to watch. As of now, I have only like 3 vtubers that I always wait for their stream.
“Being adorable is universal language “ wise word…
I think what makes her very popular is she is very often interacting with Indonesian Viewers and make jokes using a meme that most Indonesia can understand which makes her become very popular, even some people in Indonesia that don't usually watch Vtuber starting to know about Vtuber in general through Kobo because of how funny she is.
Props to holoID management. I think Kobo and the whole gen 3 is a success from hololive ID management. Their donos and ccv is good too imo, hopefully ID management keep the momentum for the 4th gen makes the world especially SEA region know hololive ID more.
I feel bad for 4th. The 3rd gen already set the standard too high.☠️
The 3rd gen is always the big horses in each branch except for EN because EN is already a monster from the start lol.
But one thing is certain is that Blue Vtubers will always thrive in any branch or even any agency, there should be a community filled with Blue Vtubers.
Pekora, Gura, and Kobo, 3 blue haired girls dominating the Vtubing scene in their respective regions. And they’re all under the Hololive name, it’s insane just how powerful Cover’s recruitment game is xD
Also, seeing how the Vtuber trend is slowly starting to gain traction in Korea, Cover just might be able to pull another W by debuting a branch there since their track record for recruitment is S tier lol
the power of blue
Regis is blue too.. the blues are so powerfull
Considering how a lot of official videos (like HoloGra episodes) have Spanish subtitles, that's probably the market they're going for next. Korea is probably the next one after that, but considering how Nijisanji Korea failed, Cover are probably pretty cautious about it for now.
Cover logo is also blue.
@@Destinum Niji KR, IN (India), ID "failed" most likely due to the lackluster and incompetent management from what I havr gathered. Depressed Nousagi did a video on the Indian branch.
Not passing any judgement, but Anycolor did appear to be "cheap" and was attempting to be "laissez faire" with their overseas Nijisanji branches before EN got started with proper investment with good management and budget.
One thing that's not mentioned here, while Kobo has been seen to not be afraid to speak her mind and be herself, she is actually also mindful and calculated with the things she puts out. Her hardwork in putting out music is also among top holomems, I'd say she's one of top 5 singers tbh.
Karena dia sudah dewasa diatas 20 tahun bukan anak anak
@@carkawalakhatulistiwa there's a lot of adults above 20 who still make childish decision, that's a dumb take.
I understand why ID people like Kobo this much. I'm from Brazil and here, Vtuber is a really underground thing, so is really difficult find good Vtubers here. I watch English Vtubers because it's the language I'm most familiar with (and it's still hard to understand many things, my english is really bad)
Well, she's damn talented at streaming and singing.. Her model is also one of the most unique ever.
In all honesty Kobo’s loud personality is helping fill the hole of rushia’s rage that leads to blood curdling screams.
Kobo know what she's doing. In the collab with Machina she said the reason she going batshit crazy was because its good content. It's what people love and laugh about
Who is machina?
@@VylonDelta um Machina x Flayon from Stars EN
Great video and great point. As an Indonesian, I agree 100%, Kobo is THE MOST Indonesian VTuber that exist outside of the actual Indonesian-exclusive VTubers. And as a Hololive + Indonesian fan, I couldn't be happier when Kobo arrived. She was her own self, didn't try to cater to anyone, didn't try to force herself to follow this or that culture in order to get views, she went in and did everything that she wanted with what she had, what she knew, and what she loved. It's amazing to finally see a globally popular Indonesian VTuber that is actually Indonesian and doesn't speak English 99% of the time while ignoring the local/domestic viewers.
I wouldn't say Kobo "barely speaks English". Sure, she's far from fluent, but in collabs she usually has no issues keeping up in English conversations, and she can still crack plenty of jokes. She could absolutely stream mainly in English if she wanted to, she just chooses not to 'cause she's much more comfortable in her native tongue.
"Barely speaks" as in "barely uses the language", not "barely knows the language". This is why, even though I like her, I won't watch her solo streams.
@@LaughingOrange No, he really was saying "barely speaks" as in "barely knows the language", since he followed it up by saying "she can't exactly appeal to the English speaking demographic".
To put it simply, kobo is just like another Indonesian streamer but with avatar anime. This girl is so relatable for many Indonesian that watched her compared to her compatriots in hololive id, the jokes, the banters, chat interaction, that's how Indonesian streamer look like just by watching kobo if you're not an Indonesian
Kobo also often collaborates with local streamers/youtubers, this is also the reason why the Vtuber community in Indonesia is growing due to new norms interested in watching vtubers
What i thought about Kobo for now is.... Rather than she is a Waifu for all... She is Actually a Little bratty Sister for all of us who must get Protected at all cost from hate being
When you mentioned that most of the popular Indonesian vtubers speak mostly English/Japanese on streams, I've remembered that I was always wondering why Mika never spoke Indonesian on streams(at least I haven't seen her doing so). And when I've heard the answer for that question in this video, now I feel kinda sad for her and her Indonesian fans.
I mean nijisanji ID and KR are not kinda in name anymore look at the wave mika was in the speak way more Indonesian than mika. Heck it's basically the samething with KR branch for nijisanji some of them speaking alot more English.
@@kinglightning5256 and now many members of niji id now graduating
She actually dominating ASEAN fr
Kobo is like a normal indonesian streamer but _Anime_ . Uncontrollable laugh, just say whatever, and treats viewers like the boys. I really like that type of content, just bros hanging around. Now if only another one to duo kobo...hmm
Basically, her personality is what makes it so interesting
Samething for me as well I just don't think it because she's speaking Indonesia but because she's just talented. No offense but look at nijisanji ID alot of there talents speaks Indonesia alot but never grew and not finding success speaking the ones that speaks English alot or just abandoned speaking Indonesia altogether like mika grew.
One of the main reason kobo managed to penetrate mainstream Indonesia because of her upbringing, many people in Indonesia who pursue a Vtuber career tends to come from Indonesian upper-middle or upper class (these people also tends to come from a specific ethnic group), this makes them feel less 'local' as they are not accustomed to what the rest of Indonesia enjoys, though to be honest a lot of Indonesia's jokes nowadays are related to political and religious stuff, things that vtuber actively avoids, so it is understandable.
Kobo actively participate in Indonesian jokes, follow Indonesian Gen Z humor through tiktok, using Indonesia's own ethnic group endearing stereotypes as her jokes, all this makes her feel like an actual Indonesian you could relate to.
I think what makes her even more impressive is that she didn't just stop there though. Thanks to all her collabs with EN, Stars, and JP her popularity also exploded outside of Indonesia.
you know what, i'm not into vtuber at first, it's only recently, i mean, i watch talent from MAHA5, but, just for their weekly memes compilation. . but Kobo, that brat 😆 got me hooked and pull me deeper into this rabbit hole, she's like her avatar, like water, like force of nature, powerful yet refreshing xD
I honestly love videos like these, seeing how these vtubers grow. It amazing how people with different personalities bring different folks together.
A little unrelated, but Hana Macchia was my gateway into the vtuber community back in 2020.
I already knew about vtubers since years prior, but they didn't captivate me when I tried back then, and so I didn't stay.
If Hana had mostly appealed to indonesian fans, I probably wouldn't have entered the community for a long time still.
It would have likely still happened, but it would have potentially taken me a few more years before entering the community for real.
I may not understand the Indonesian language, but funny is funny, and she is hilarious
2:14 aside from the currency not being available, the conversion is just... terrible overall. A single US Dollar equals to Rp 14000.00-16000.00... which is already quite big for common young folks. To put it in perspective, buying a decent lunch outside could range from Rp 16000.00 to Rp 36000.00, with Fast Food being twice or even thrice as expensive. Buying a drink in minimarket can go as low as Rp. 2000.00 for mineral water, to Rp. 8000.00 for instant coffee. A small change would be around Rp. 500.00 to Rp 2000.00.
To put it simply, to donate in the same caliber as the Westerners or Easteners would've been an economical suicide. Our wage is honestly not great.
Tbf that's because we (Indonesia) Indonesia have everything thus making anything (except electronics products) cheap and ofc in turn make the salary for Indonesian cheap too compared to Westerners. So yeah the conversion really do us no favor just like export import relation
Still remember Kiara said that the dominating Holomember talents (by subscriber count and views) from each branch was blue themed
And water themes too. In EN you'll find sharks, in JP you'll find pirates, in ID there is rain shaman.
@@Luluskuy in JP pekora was the most popular, not marine.
@@catloverxd377 fron subscriber count wise, marine is higher. Even the Cover webpage itself says the same.
@@Luluskuy bruh . There is many youtuber who have millions subscriber but have low view count. Me personaly not really believe the sub count.
Pekora was the most popular female streamer in japan .
@@catloverxd377 Say all you want, but Marine IS the front cover of Hololive JP in their parerent company webpage.
as a spanish speaker, I will say the same about a vtuber called meica (she's the lastest doxxed by wac tor), she's more japanese than latina, but she adapted to be a memelord and honestly she loves latin america more than us do... and the community teaching her the ways of latin america is really charming
we really just need 1 of the big/medium companies to take us seriously for this market to explode (holo/niji/vshojo/idol or phase... please, idol, don't waste riro, she's basically spanish...) (and they will have to make a coordinated attack on spain and brazil in the same generation...)
anime is just getting big here, you can't go touching grass without seeing people wearing anime merch stuff now... that just happened after the pandemic out of nowhere...
Hey thats me! 5:59
I liked her hairstyle when she debuted then I slowly learned about her skills and abilities and the skills are amazing. Especially, playing instruments and her singing. I've been playing ''Oh, Asmara'' since release everyday hahahah.
The reason why Kobo can get a lot of subscribers so fast is because she is already a magnet that can attract people's attention and very fun to watch(especially for Indonesian youth). Besides that, her fans are also very proud of her, and they're not embrassed to showing to other people that Kobo is their idol.
Thank for Kobo because she bring Vtuber things to normies market too.
Another Fun Fact . Now Kobo song in every Event Japanese in Indonesia seems like an obligatory
Mantra hujan
Lovely personality talented artist She know the meme she also culture
Love it even kobo her name is meme lmao
the first thing i like about kobo is she is really good at singing. her banters with other vtuber is 2nd reason
My man is pumping out content like a straight mad man.
France is for sure the next local scene to need a big vTuber. The French are surprisingly huge weebs, second only to the US in the non-Japan anime market.
Japan also romanticizes tf out of France (as do a lot of anglophone countries, tbh), so they'd do well there, too. A French vTuber with a cute accent that can tap into the French weeb scene would pull huge numbers.
Isn't Spain supposed to be pretty big too? I just feel like I remember hearing that both France and Spain had lots of anime on tv when people were growing up, but I might be misremembering.
kobo managed to help me get out of the toxic kpop circle and I am very grateful for it.
Can't express in words how happy I am you are back!
KOBO talent : 9 musical instrumen
Composer
Song writer
POLYGOT mandarin ID EN JP java
Cute tsudere open minded interactive
She doing music for her autism brother
Lots voice range and VA . Even Cebo
She also the reason why I watching vtuber, I just watch Kobo and the Tempus guild tho especially Regus and Brian (Regis and Axel), flayon is fun to watch to. As a person who had negatif thought for vtuber before and always roasting my friends like 'dude your watching 2D animation' I truly suprise I can enjoy watching them now
as indonesian, my opinion is kobo is very relatable to the lingua franca in Indonesia, and he is very cool to joke with like a friend in general, I don't care about his cuteness, maybe some of his fans too, because there are many other vtubers who are also cute, but kobo won the competition because of kobo very relatable with us
I jump into this rabbit hole because kobo🤣
I still think about the part of her debut where she gets to "Age", and there's a long pause before she says "I'm legal."
That's Bijou levels of genius, *and* she did it first!
The fact that my 4th grader cousin who has no interest in weeb culture knows about her says a lot about how popular she got
Kobo is cute little sister, thats a fact for everyone!
I love that she just has no breaks. Collabs with just about anyone. You guys streaming? Let me in that shit.
Nice bit of coverage regarding Kobo.
I was looking at Otaku Dictionary and noted something interesting Vesper Noir did almost as much in the way of superchats as Astel did last year but he only debuted in Aug 2022 but Astel debuted well before that.
Unfortuneately, Otaku Dictionary didn't do a popularity metric for Holostars - his formula is (views + (likes * 10) - nor did he look at fastest subcount growth (this really isn't a valid metric as youTube pushes files to people most likely to watch them.
Axel, Altare and Magni also hit it pretty hard given they only were operating for 4 months
The other interesting story out there is Pekora, she literally was 2nd to Amoranth in terms of views last year the war criminal rabbit is routinely the most watch VTuber in the world and in the top 5 of female streamer on TH-cam and Twitch
1:01 this refers to the total GDP of a country. The table used the wrong row (when using GDP per capita, the richest in southeast Asia would be Singapore)
Her success can be summed up in one word... STARDENBURDENHARDENBART
As an Indonesian myself, I see my school flooded with kobo's appearance. My friends who are usually not interested in virtual youtubers, now knows them through Kobo Kanaeru.
Even i wasnt even a fan of vtuber, i was only subscribed to one or two and i didnt watch them religiously until kobo existed. She is entertaining as fuck
@@lizzyleea her content really is entertaining, especially if you speak the language since she used Indonesian almost every time. (I love her humor)
She's funny , great singer and musician , also can design a website. Wether her attitude was planned or natural , she's entertaining and that's all that mattered.
Yeah it's way more than just speaking Indonesia why she is successful if you asked me
The HoloID gen 4 would be interesting, I can see them fully cater to their local market
I was trying to find this video, happy to see it back
I knew debut she had that ultra talent, day 1 membership
orang luar aja mengakui kalau Kobra itu GOAT, heran masih banyak orang indonesia yang gak mau mengakui hal ini
Well, Kobo is mostly just becoming herself.
Japanese Samurai would often travel to Indonesia to fight in wars during peace time to train for war and in search for adventure and glorious and honorable wealth of experience.... and maybe a little money. They left in search of love and returned with Kobo Kanaeru.
VTuber META: Water-related smol blue girl. I'm not sure if those factors have anything to do with it but it happened more than once so I'm suspicious.
I am so fucking glad you came back
I have bad news. This is a reupload after copyright.
Re-upload but who cares? Let's watch it again cuz Kobo deserves all the head pats
The Gen 3th Hololive really the most biggest plot twist in Hololive story, especially Kobo
FURRY INDONESIA, solid solid SOLID!!!
solid solid solid
halo warga Indo yg berkultur meme
Sad that it probably will not garner number of views as before but glad it came back.
Glad to see U back making content.
If there's one thing I learned from her collabs with the girls and boys, it's that cuteness and curses transcends language barriers
Kobo really stands out in an exceptional way. She's extra popular because she's unique in every way imho.
Amazing, bro, and thanks for that words in the ending, someday i'll be big and famous and i'll see your video saying how your comment saved my career while i was nothing...
From now i'll keep trying :)
How to be successful in Vtuber?
1. Blue.
2. Kusogaki.
3. Short?
4. Dum-dum??

I can’t wait until we get a giant Spanish vtuber trend, Hakka from hololive is just the beginning!
This video is very well put together. Kudos to you
I was wondering just a few days ago how she got so popular lol. I learned that most of her popularity comes from indonesia due to her almost exclusively speaking indonesian, but I didn't know that even many people outside of Indonesia like her (and for her personality no less), which I personally can't relate to at all, but I don't like Kusogakis in general. Though to be fair, she's a different kind of Kusogaki than for example Gura and Shion, who are both kind of an adorable type of Kusogaki, while Kobo is the annoying Kusogaki (which is basically the definition of Kusogaki lol). I've seen Indonesian people describing her as "the little brat that is like the annoying neighbor's kid that you'd like to kick in the ass" and things like that, which I can totally understand xD
Tiktok played a part on Kobo's popularity too, as she had plenty of clips that went viral or popular there. Her tags views in tiktok is massive compared to many other hololive talents.
She is so popular, even to mandarin speaking viewer. You can try to search in youtube "Kobo sing" but type it in mandarin. And voila, so many videos and almost every video has one thousand views or more.

Me, flashback to the time of Kerja Rodi and Romusha.
Jokes aside, it's crazy just how evil people can be without proper ways to channel and vent their frustrations.
Ah yes. The good old times..

WOOO ITS BACK UP KOBO DOMINATION YAY
Holo EN gen 3 is delayed because kobo made them realize that blue lolis have the biggest success in Hololive (pekora, gura, kobo) and they needed to start everyone’s model from scratch to debut a new generation of just 5 blue lolis.
