"Nanoda" and "noda" (a "na" must be added after a noun or adjective) are variants of "nanodesu", "nodesu", "ndesu", "nandesu", "nda", "nanda". All these words are sentence endings which essentially add either an assertive, or an explanatory nuance to the tone of your sentence.

It's also rare to end a sentence with a bare "da"--it's considered literary (although not polite per se)."
Fun fact: the reason there was a Dark Souls theme during the 3D stream battle was because before the great purge of Hololive stream archives, Luna played Dark Souls and was actually extremely good at it (makes sense, she loves action RPG style games and is a Monster Hunter veteran). Sadly those Dark Souls streams are still private and were barely clipped.

Listening to Fan speak in uwu speak was the highlight of my night! Also, Luna is severely, and I mean SEVERELY underrated. She's supremely entertaining and puts out some unbelievably entertaining content. I love watching her when I have the opportunity 💕

She is kinda underrated. But it's understandable given that her voice alone is enough to put off some people, and she likes to 'do her own thing' more than most other members meaning she gets less clips and collabs.
I'm sad that the Midnight Piano (now Electone) streams, where she just practice different songs on stream wasn't included. Every night I just play it in the background to listen to while fighting the urge to fall asleep since it's too comfy asf. It's so cute listening to her fumble (barehen~ barehen~) while playing but when she finishes a full song you couldn't help but clap and feel so proud.
I dont follow her but I opened one up recently and was like "so what we are just chilling here and listening to the bgm or what?" and then it hit me that it was her playing, not a recording.
yeah, the Piano / Electone streams are just my absolute favorites. The timezone makes them air in time for lunch and I can just watch while I enjoy my food 😊👌
To clarify the 3D debut: Luna-tan is well known as one of 6he best dark souls players in Hololive. Also, she and Matsuri have a close friendship and it's super precious. Needed the Subaru clip talking about Luna coming to visit, it's gold.
It's a shame there's nothing left of her Dark Souls streams since the great purge, I've always wanted to see how much of a pro she is. I hope she does another stream of one of them some day. If you mean Subaru's bath and ice cream story, it's pretty great. It sounds like it confirms her spoiled princess personality isn't entirely an act.
Man, the entire 4th Gen crew is absolutely stellar. Every single one of them is crazy good at what they do. The Angel and Gorilla combo that are vocal powerhouses, the Sheep that has the power to heal your soul, the Ya-kusa Doragon who was a literal juggernaut of the industry that revolutionized vtubing and brought east and west together... and last but not least this amazing 0 year old Baby who NEVER breaks character. I applaud her purely because of her sheer willpower to continue with her role, even though everyone knows that her potential audience size is gimped right from the start just because of her character type which isn't appealing to many. Plus her late night piano learning streams were the best, watching someone slowly get better over time is a total joy to experience. :D
The first time I saw Luna, I was like "Hell no!" and then Monster Hunter Rise released and I didn't do anything else, but playing it myself and watching her 6-12 h long streams, every day. Now, I love that spoiled brat!
This makes me want to start watching Luna now. She’s one of the Holo girls that I’ve payed practically no attention to but now I actually want to start watching more of her clips and streams. Thank you M’lord of orange
I was exactly the same for the longest time! Then I randomly starting checking out Luna for some reason. And then...well... Welcome, future LunKnight. 🙂 🌙
She's also very sweet and caring. Adorable especially when the luknights tease her. Oh yeah she's very very good at games too if that's what you're into
She's pretty damn funny and she occasionally plays some retro games I caught her playing Super Metroid and Donkey Kong Country 2 and I know she also played Megaman X recently plus she's a Monster Hunter Vet and apparently good at Dark Souls
The funny part is that when the holo girls (Luna, Nene, Marine, Miko) had a 3d sit up competition much later on, Luna managed to do the most sit ups. She really upped her stamina over the months.
To be fair she seemed to be running on pure willpower during the competition. It's a bit of a shame it wasn't included here as it serves as an excellent punchline to all the other "0-stamina" clips that was included, and the whole thing was hilarious in general.
@@Lucaz99 The month before was Coco's graduation, which Luna was noted to be dealing with poorly. In particular, she was drinking a lot. Not saying it was to worrying levels, but there were reasons why her stamina could have been a bit lower then.
@@TheJjcczz maybe I could swear I remember seeing that she was the princess of Pekoland in her description on the official hololive website but when I went to check the description was 2 lines long...
"Pekora does this flawlessly with peko." -Nothingbuta_fan You sure about that one? I think she's known for not keeping in character and having to be told to stay in character lol. Great video, I couldn't get into Luna early on, her cutesy voice bothered me but she grew on me a lot and I love her. She's legitimately one of the funniest members of Hololive, her sense of humor is underrated I think.
She used to be when she was still new but she crossed the threshold long ago to the point that she now sometimes has to catch herself from saying peko in public.
I consider Luna to be the last boss of Hololive. She epitomizes the negative perception that people outside of the fandom initially have of Vtubers; she's an insufferably cutesy, innocent, pink princess. Although new viewers might be deterred by that character personality initially, it is actually the dedication to that character that is Luna's strength. She never drops character, and that is a recipe for comedy whenever she collabs with other members, especially more degenerate ones like Coco, Matsuri, and Marine. Luna's English lessons during Asacoco was the perfect showcase of why she's so great, and probably sold a lot of people on her character. It makes me wonder what would have happened if Luna was in some other group, where the members where more reserved and tame. Would she just blend in as another cutesy girl, and never get the chance to show how funny she is, because she doesn't have the perfect people to bounce off of?
@@AurasShadow Hhm, well I'm not going into specifics but we do know what it was like for Luna when she was with another group as she was with one before joining Hololive.
Himemori is written in kanji as 姫森 The first kanji 姫 can be read as "Hime" which means "Princess." And the second kanji 森 can be read as "Mori/Shin" which means "forest." So it can be translated as ''Princess of the forest''
@@JaxHolo "Mori" 森 does mean forest, but in Latin Mori also means ''to die'' as in such phrases as "memento mori" ("remember death"). "Calliope" is written in katakana as カリオペ which means "beautiful voice" in ancient Greek.
Sentence enders are common among anime characters like how pekora ends her sentences with peko, or kagura from Gintama ends sentences in aru. Luna's sounds like a baby version of nanoda, one that real people use. It's an effeminate way to show certainty.
Aru has a meaning though, I thought? I assumed that "nanora" was a stylized version of "nanoda" which means "to call on oneself". Albeit This is from a very,very brief reading of a quora answer. Could just be something she made up on her own though like towa and "yappi~"
Aru does have a meaning, and is also a very common ender in real Japanese. "that japanese man yuta" on youtube actually has a good video on her. Kagura uses it on every sentence. "to call on oneself" < I guess it's possible but I don't think I've seen it used this way.
20:24 FYI there is a clip of subaru just literally sitting... and it blew up everything... I mean... it's cute tho.. Subaru reacted to that clip and explained why she sits like that particularly all femenine stylish form (it's very cute tho ngl, she seems like a princess)
Geez, I remember that one, people were truly worried about her, not to mention everything she went through afterwards and her operation, is a good thing that the rest of her genmates took care of her... I mean, Towa is such a mother with them.
Watching Luna’s streams helped me pass JLPT N2 lmao it might be a bit hard to understand her but after listening to her streams, the listening section of the test was cakewalk
Btw while Luna is one of the girls who can’t sing as well or doesn’t like to, she’s one of the most musically talented girls. She often makes streams playing the piano or the electone and she also knows how to play other instruments.
0:00 Intro 2:41 Who is Luna? (Lore) 8:23 Clip 1 - Nanorazilla! 12:24 Clip 2 - 1 year of Luna - Nanolish (Luna English) 14:48 Not a baby 15:40 3 sizes 17:39 Ok, Gugulu 18:20 Luna in a AsaCoco commercial 19:16 3D Luna 20:08 Clip 3 - 3D Luna screaming and falling in horror game 27:36 Clip 4 - No one can understand Luna 30:13 Clip 5 - Bald Luna 32:52 Clip 6 - A special message for Luna 35:46 Clip 7 - 3D debut 44:22 Clip 8 - Luna doing squats 47:28 Final Clip build up 48:15 Final Clip - Luna's letter to her fans 53:46 Outro
23:04 She wasn't okay because her real voice came out which very rarely happens to Luna. This is where she hurt her neck after falling off the chair. Also iirc she aggravated her already messed up wrist too. She had surgery on her wrist a few months ago and it's good now.
Luna is so extremely talented, hilarious, and caring. She really does her best for her fans. She also has amazing taste for older games like all Monster Hunter, Metal Gear, and a lot of 90s Nintendo games I'm a bit sad that you didn't talk about all her Ring Fit streams. She sometimes plays it for hours, working hard to improve herself. Also no mention of her piano was a bit odd since that's one of her biggest things
Luna really grows on you. Thanks to her personality and talents, her baby persona becomes fun rather than annoying. I mean, just look at her collabs, especially the recent ones like SubaChocoLunaTan.
Hey Nagzz! Just commenting since I know you've said you like the clips when VTubers drop character or let out their "real" voice. Luna called into a Haachama cooking when Haachama was making takoyaki (one of Luna's favorite foods I think) and Haachama's scuffed cooking broke her enough that she almost dropped the voice. Super hilarious and one of my favorite Luna clips
Luna actually hurt herself while falling during the 3D horror stream. I don't remember what it was but people were quite worried at the time when she later said that she needed time to heal from her injury. She's fine now though.
I hope Nagzz was able to see some of Luna's moments with Matsuri. The relationship between these two is absolutely wholesome. They offered gifts to each other during their birthday streams, and Matsuri even sang a song dedicated to Luna. Luna is also part of 2 groups, one with Subaru and Choco, and one with Aki and Roboco called Anpontan Sisters.
I don't think Matsuri and Luna are much of a thing anymore, Matsuri talked about when they had a falling out for a little bit. They're still friends, but not as close as they were. Luna seems to be more into Subaru now, seeing how they interact and the amount of collabs that they've done lately.
@@reachlol1 They're still close, if not what what they were before. It's still a beautiful relationship. We don't know the full details of course, but hopefully both of them learned a little something from their falling out, and making up.
@@Philweasel of course theyre still close, I meant they aren't as much as they were before. Matsuri talked about how they made up after a fight, but we haven't seen them really do anything together since then
Yeaaahh Luna!! I love Luna man, she deserves so much more attention than she gets, she's freaking hilarious. She's completely self-aware of how sickly sweet her character is and the more annoyed people are by it the more she plays it up to drive them mad. But then eventually you just give into your own madness and can't help but find her adorable. There is no winning against her. We are all but playthings in the palm of her hand. (Also her English streams are some of my all-time favourite Hololive streams, they're amazing) Also there are probably millions of comments saying this already, I haven't refreshed yet, but "nanora" is just her babyish way of saying "nanoda", doesn't really mean anything on its own, but it's basically like another way of saying "desu"
Matsuri always reach out to Holomembers that are seem too shy and can't connect with others. Subaru? She's just great with anyone she's with. Extrovert and full of energy. Recently Subaru, Luna and Botan plays a lot together and 2 of them are so funny that Botan keep on inviting them to play just so she can have her usual laughing fit.
Troll Luna is best Luna, imo. The way she handled Subaru in 7 Days to Die is what made me love the both of them actually. The Triggering of Marine is also awesome, especially now that we have it animated. And the way she named the dinosaur they were going to breed in ARK "Matsuri" was also really fun. Just a few of my favourite Luna moments, moments that those new in the rabbit hole probably won't stumble across any more. The content flows on.
@@GoldenThunderbolt Oh, they are still around, it would be a tragedy if they weren't. I just get the feeling they aren't getting recommended to people who have just fallen down the rabbit hole so they will never know about them. Unless people like us tell them. I salute you right back. But I wonder what Haachama moment you are thinking of. Because in the clips I am thinking of Luna is clearly the one being triggered. :)
Quick note on korone and okayu's names. In inugami, the gami part is a modified reading of kami, meaning god, and is written with an obscure kanji that refers to the Chinese Zodiac dog. For okayu, nekomata refers to a creature from Japanese folklore.
@@lilywong9672 bruh, she has a moon on her crown, moon earrings, a lot of moon decorations in her dress, yukata, her casual ourfit is a starry night with moon decorations, her ahoge is a moon
As a Luknight i am very happy to see that nagzz finally discovers Luna, i hope he will continue to watch and support her in the coming future. P.S Luna birthday is at 10/10 so tomorrow i hope everyone will have the time to watch her 3d stream
Nagzz, thank you so much for doing a video on Luna. I discovered your videos last year and now I watch them regularly. Luna is one of my favorite Hololive members and it's so heartwarming to see that she is getting so much love in the community. It is also a nice touch that this video was uploaded the day of her birthday. Keep up the good work. I apologize if my grammar is all over the place, English is not my first language.
I'm pretty sure Inugami means Dog God which is a play on how in English Dog spelled backward is God obviously, Nekomata Means Returning Cat in reference to the 9 lives myth. As a bonus Peko is an onomatopoeia that represents snacking and Pekoras name is a combination of Angora which is a type of rabbit and peko.
The other princess you were thinking of at the beginning is Pekora, princess of Pekoland. EDIT: Jumping off something Fan said at the end, it’s not just Subaru Luna’s connected with, those two have formed a mini collab group with Choco and Botan, where it’s mainly Botan carrying them through various FPS games.
i really hoped that nagzz see the clips where marine and luna drawing or playing together i forgor exactly, and marine is just sick and tired of how luna talks. It's just fun watching those two bantering at each other
Fun fact, royalty having very weak constitution was very prevalent in most of europe at some point or another. Hemophillia is one of many conditions that royalty commonly had because of a ton of inbreeding ‘to keep the bloodline pure’
Luna is one of the ones i've started to warm up to as the months go on She just has this infectious joy to her, you see this a lot when she is with Subaru and Matsuri ALSO Her Electone streams are a god send. They are a great way for me to start the day
I think Luna is one of the best in Hololive when it comes to collabs with other Holomems. The Marine and Luna drawing collab is still among the funniest videos i've seen in awhile. Also Haachama cooking stream with Luna.....
Ok, not much extra to give on this one! Luna has been practicing the keyboard for a while now and apparently good quite good at it, what princess-like thing, right? As for clips that might have come up in the stream but not here, there is the crane game fiasco where she throws a fantastic baby tantrum, top Luna content right there. Another one is from Subaru's perspective, when Luna first visited her house and was quite the spoiled princess (this story was animated so check that out), and finally, there's an animation out there with giant-sized Luna having a kaiju fight with giant Watame, godzilla theme included. Great video, nice day you all, peace!
8:24 So, Luna has a few streams where she's practicing to learn the piano and this was one of those pieces she was trying to learn. Obviously, it got an animatic because fans are crazy people devoted to their oshis. :p For additional context, please view this comment: th-cam.com/video/RrUR40W2RTo/w-d-xo.html&lc=Ugy0s4Q20ciVefwN2sh4AaABAg
14:48 my legitimate reaction to this clip is to say “of course you aren’t, sweetie” in the same tone of voice I used to use with my cousin when she was 5.
More than any other character in Hololive, Luna's ability to keep to her gimmick shows incredible dedication. It seems like her character (especially speech) in particular would be exceptionally difficult.
I will always acknowledge the fact that Luna handles her chat well and also one of chats that are actually not as chaotic and respects Luna. Also, an hour is not enough for this videos! 👌
I usually watch videos at 2X speed so seeing you slow it down to half was kinda jarring because I was hearing something at normal speed when im so used to it being sped up lmao
Another great discovers both of you! I sweat they keep getting better and better. It's so cool to learn about these girls alongside Nagzz with the help of fan. Can't wait for the next one!
It's not as present these days because Luna doesn't need the help like she used to, but the bond that she has with Matsuri is really sweet. At one point Matsuri said she considers Luna a little sister.
I was hoping the clip of Luna, Coco, and Kanata (?) when they were talking about Luna being demanding at their house and fussing over the bath water! haha
Luna is hilarious i think there was a skit with matsuri on the hololive channel that had me dying Luna absolutely killed it also im pretty sure her birthday celebration stream is in a couple hours
Lamy is a noble of the snow elves. Luna is the princess of the moon forest kingdom. Also, Gen 2.5/Gamers are all Japanese mythological creatures. Shirakami Fubuki is a winter fox kitsune (White Goddess, Blizzard) Ookami Mio is a wolf goddess (Ookami, depending on kanji used, is both Great God and Wolf) Inugami Korone is a dog goddess of sweet pastries (Dog Goddess, Coronet as in the chocolate coronet pastry) Nekomat Okayu is a hungry cat-like gremlin (Nekomata are cat gremlins known to annoy priests and shrine goddess, and Okayu is just savory rice pudding).
This is very bittersweet, but Fan's right, her anniversary wish to perform on stage with the rest of 4th Gen in their idol outfits did come true; the reason she wished for that in the first place is that they performed on stage at Hololive's 2nd Fes, but they weren't in their idol outfits at the time because those models weren't ready to use. Their idol outfit versions would be rolled out over the next few months and each used them in individual or collab 3D singing streams, but there wasn't a moment where they were all together for a long while. The chance did come again, and all five of them did perform together on stage in their idol outfits... at Coco's graduation. So it was both the first and last time they'd all be able to perform together like that.
I've been waiting for this video. I'm happy you checked her out already, but disappointed about the video selection more or less...maybe you checked them on stream, but I was hoping to see them here. In case you or anyone is curious, her piano/electone streams are a must. She's really good at MonHun, and well, showing a bit more of her collabs would've been great, like FestivaLuna content, or SubaChocoLuna. Still, nice to see this video is out. Give some love to Luna, she's so precious and really deserves more attention.
btw just a bit of context for thoe who didn't know, Luna's English Class is one of the semi regular segments in Coco's morning show, Asacoco. Now you know who writes her script for this 😂
Luna: says she cute innocent princess.
Artists: don't draw lewds of her.
Luna: is angry at fans for not making lewds of her.
It's funny how she's one of the few Holo-members people don't draw many lewds of despite Luna asking for lewds lol

That’s sad… glad she’s okay now.

I thought that she was a princess but i couldn't remember
@@deadfirex1869 well her princess aura is covered with her war criminal aura
no it was Reine
@@painpeko4415 i mean there have been many a royal that have led their armies to commit atrocities... it's just usually a prince or a king.
He did check finana in a mini too (I don't know her lore, I just know she has a crown)
This makes me want to start watching Luna now. She’s one of the Holo girls that I’ve payed practically no attention to but now I actually want to start watching more of her clips and streams. Thank you M’lord of orange
If you like music streams then I would recommend her electone streams.
all the SubaChocoLuna stuff is so funny
I was exactly the same for the longest time! Then I randomly starting checking out Luna for some reason. And then...well...
Welcome, future LunKnight. 🙂 🌙
She's also very sweet and caring. Adorable especially when the luknights tease her. Oh yeah she's very very good at games too if that's what you're into
She's pretty damn funny and she occasionally plays some retro games I caught her playing Super Metroid and Donkey Kong Country 2 and I know she also played Megaman X recently plus she's a Monster Hunter Vet and apparently good at Dark Souls
One of my favorite clips is her throwing a temper tantrum when she finally got her turn in the “crane” game and got an “error” instead
The funny part is that when the holo girls (Luna, Nene, Marine, Miko) had a 3d sit up competition much later on, Luna managed to do the most sit ups. She really upped her stamina over the months.
To be fair she seemed to be running on pure willpower during the competition.
It's a bit of a shame it wasn't included here as it serves as an excellent punchline to all the other "0-stamina" clips that was included, and the whole thing was hilarious in general.
That must have been a miracle? I don’t think it has been two month that I’ve Luna die after minimum after on a ChocoLunaSuba 3D stream
@@Lucaz99 The month before was Coco's graduation, which Luna was noted to be dealing with poorly. In particular, she was drinking a lot.
Not saying it was to worrying levels, but there were reasons why her stamina could have been a bit lower then.
Fun fact, weak constitution and hemophilia was very common in royal families throughout europe, for *reasons*
every one forgets that Pekora is actually the princess of Pekoland
Wasn’t that something Pekora came up with her self later though? Her official lore didn’t start out as a princess right?
@@TheJjcczz maybe I could swear I remember seeing that she was the princess of Pekoland in her description on the official hololive website but when I went to check the description was 2 lines long...
That's a funny way to spell dictator
@@HExtraordinaire dictators usually don't call themselves dictators, they always give themselves titles like king, president, emperor, etc
@@liderice did u forgot about reine and iofi? They both also princess too
Luknight here for duty! I shall watch with extreme prejudice.
"Pekora does this flawlessly with peko." -Nothingbuta_fan You sure about that one? I think she's known for not keeping in character and having to be told to stay in character lol. Great video, I couldn't get into Luna early on, her cutesy voice bothered me but she grew on me a lot and I love her. She's legitimately one of the funniest members of Hololive, her sense of humor is underrated I think.
She used to be when she was still new but she crossed the threshold long ago to the point that she now sometimes has to catch herself from saying peko in public.
I consider Luna to be the last boss of Hololive. She epitomizes the negative perception that people outside of the fandom initially have of Vtubers; she's an insufferably cutesy, innocent, pink princess. Although new viewers might be deterred by that character personality initially, it is actually the dedication to that character that is Luna's strength. She never drops character, and that is a recipe for comedy whenever she collabs with other members, especially more degenerate ones like Coco, Matsuri, and Marine. Luna's English lessons during Asacoco was the perfect showcase of why she's so great, and probably sold a lot of people on her character.
It makes me wonder what would have happened if Luna was in some other group, where the members where more reserved and tame. Would she just blend in as another cutesy girl, and never get the chance to show how funny she is, because she doesn't have the perfect people to bounce off of?
@@AurasShadow Hhm, well I'm not going into specifics but we do know what it was like for Luna when she was with another group as she was with one before joining Hololive.
man you should of showed Nagzz more Nanolish, her duolingo streams are comedy gold
too much of one thing gets old after a while.
@@Okatogurui I mean theyve been doing the 3d debuts section for even longer so im not sure how that take spplies lol
I mean, on the topic of you covering royalty before, Pekora claims to be the Princess of Pekoland, so maybe that’s where you got confused?
Reine maybe?
Pekoland sounds like an amusement parj
TIL that Luna is 10 times the potty-mouth that Coco ever was.
Nagzz: Waki? Waki is ARMPIT!!! YEAH! ARMPIT!!
Nagzz: Oh god, what I becomed
He became one of us degeneral
Alexa play unravel
Himemori is written in kanji as 姫森
The first kanji 姫 can be read as "Hime" which means "Princess."
And the second kanji 森 can be read as "Mori/Shin" which means "forest."
So it can be translated as ''Princess of the forest''
memori also means scale, make of that what you will
@@-hello6177 wouldn't that make the Hi into fire?
Mori can also be a pun for babysitter. Spelt differently; pronounced the same
So Mori Calliope is a death reaper in the forest, understandable have a nice day.
@@JaxHolo "Mori" 森 does mean forest, but in Latin Mori also means ''to die'' as in such phrases as "memento mori" ("remember death").
"Calliope" is written in katakana as カリオペ which means "beautiful voice" in ancient Greek.
Sentence enders are common among anime characters like how pekora ends her sentences with peko, or kagura from Gintama ends sentences in aru. Luna's sounds like a baby version of nanoda, one that real people use. It's an effeminate way to show certainty.
Aru has a meaning though, I thought?
I assumed that "nanora" was a stylized version of "nanoda" which means "to call on oneself".
Albeit This is from a very,very brief reading of a quora answer. Could just be something she made up on her own though like towa and "yappi~"
Aru does have a meaning, and is also a very common ender in real Japanese. "that japanese man yuta" on youtube actually has a good video on her. Kagura uses it on every sentence.
"to call on oneself" < I guess it's possible but I don't think I've seen it used this way.
20:24 FYI there is a clip of subaru just literally sitting... and it blew up everything...
I mean... it's cute tho..
Subaru reacted to that clip and explained why she sits like that particularly all femenine stylish form (it's very cute tho ngl, she seems like a princess)
Just slightly disappointed you didn’t go over the aftermath of the horror stream. She really hurt herself quite badly especially her neck
You can come to the stream and suggest the video of it on the Monday's stream, if you are on twitch. If not, come and joins us on twitch :)
Geez, I remember that one, people were truly worried about her, not to mention everything she went through afterwards and her operation, is a good thing that the rest of her genmates took care of her... I mean, Towa is such a mother with them.
Watching Luna’s streams helped me pass JLPT N2 lmao it might be a bit hard to understand her but after listening to her streams, the listening section of the test was cakewalk
We LuKnights are here to judge. CIJ!
You passed.
ah Luknights too?
Btw while Luna is one of the girls who can’t sing as well or doesn’t like to, she’s one of the most musically talented girls. She often makes streams playing the piano or the electone and she also knows how to play other instruments.

23:04 She wasn't okay because her real voice came out which very rarely happens to Luna. This is where she hurt her neck after falling off the chair. Also iirc she aggravated her already messed up wrist too. She had surgery on her wrist a few months ago and it's good now.
Luna’s piano streams got me into her character. That, and when Marine wanted to punch her in the face.
Naaaaaaa
LuKnight presenting myself to witness my princess o7
Luna is so extremely talented, hilarious, and caring. She really does her best for her fans. She also has amazing taste for older games like all Monster Hunter, Metal Gear, and a lot of 90s Nintendo games
I'm a bit sad that you didn't talk about all her Ring Fit streams. She sometimes plays it for hours, working hard to improve herself. Also no mention of her piano was a bit odd since that's one of her biggest things
Luna is my personal favorite Hololive girl. She’s honestly very sweet and caring, a soft soul with a talent for piano and is just absolutely adorable.
Luna really grows on you. Thanks to her personality and talents, her baby persona becomes fun rather than annoying.
I mean, just look at her collabs, especially the recent ones like SubaChocoLunaTan.
Hey Nagzz! Just commenting since I know you've said you like the clips when VTubers drop character or let out their "real" voice. Luna called into a Haachama cooking when Haachama was making takoyaki (one of Luna's favorite foods I think) and Haachama's scuffed cooking broke her enough that she almost dropped the voice. Super hilarious and one of my favorite Luna clips
Luna actually hurt herself while falling during the 3D horror stream. I don't remember what it was but people were quite worried at the time when she later said that she needed time to heal from her injury. She's fine now though.
I hope Nagzz was able to see some of Luna's moments with Matsuri. The relationship between these two is absolutely wholesome. They offered gifts to each other during their birthday streams, and Matsuri even sang a song dedicated to Luna.
Luna is also part of 2 groups, one with Subaru and Choco, and one with Aki and Roboco called Anpontan Sisters.
Isn't Matsuri the one who plays Luna's butler in the 3d streams?
Edit: I actually finished the video and it's obvious it's her.
I don't think Matsuri and Luna are much of a thing anymore, Matsuri talked about when they had a falling out for a little bit. They're still friends, but not as close as they were. Luna seems to be more into Subaru now, seeing how they interact and the amount of collabs that they've done lately.
@@reachlol1 They're still close, if not what what they were before. It's still a beautiful relationship.
We don't know the full details of course, but hopefully both of them learned a little something from their falling out, and making up.
@@Philweasel of course theyre still close, I meant they aren't as much as they were before. Matsuri talked about how they made up after a fight, but we haven't seen them really do anything together since then
My favorite Luna moment is when she broke character because Haachama was ruining the takoyaki
Yeaaahh Luna!! I love Luna man, she deserves so much more attention than she gets, she's freaking hilarious. She's completely self-aware of how sickly sweet her character is and the more annoyed people are by it the more she plays it up to drive them mad. But then eventually you just give into your own madness and can't help but find her adorable. There is no winning against her. We are all but playthings in the palm of her hand. (Also her English streams are some of my all-time favourite Hololive streams, they're amazing)
Also there are probably millions of comments saying this already, I haven't refreshed yet, but "nanora" is just her babyish way of saying "nanoda", doesn't really mean anything on its own, but it's basically like another way of saying "desu"
22:31 we ignoring the fact that subaru made the yamcha'd meme here?
I love all Hololive members but Luna will always be my favorite, she's just absolutely brilliant ^^
If Nagzz didn't see the hajimete no chu video clip it's a sin since that's Luna's greatest clip of all time
Luna : Why did you always come out between my legs..
Matsuri : I can come out only from here..
Luna : Why?
Matsuri : Because I'm your "butt" ler..
"Pekora flawlessly ends her sentences with peko."
Insert 'Are you sure about that?' meme.
Matsuri always reach out to Holomembers that are seem too shy and can't connect with others.
Subaru? She's just great with anyone she's with. Extrovert and full of energy. Recently Subaru, Luna and Botan plays a lot together and 2 of them are so funny that Botan keep on inviting them to play just so she can have her usual laughing fit.
I think they're 4 royalty in Hololive right?
Reine ?
Pekora (pekoland)
Luna (Kingdom of candy land)
Lamy ( snow elf noble)
Iofi ( alien princess)?
Iofi is an Alien princess, so she's part of the holoroyal.
Iofi is an Alien princess, so she's part of the holoroyal.
I think Lamy is just of Noble lineage. Not exactly royalty
Reine is definitely an isekai’d princess, so you’re correct on that one. Also Luna’s kingdom is literally translated to Candyland I believe.
1:46 technically pekora’s a royalty
Yeah the vr horror stream is all fun and games till you learn Luna hurt herself really badly when she fell over.
Troll Luna is best Luna, imo. The way she handled Subaru in 7 Days to Die is what made me love the both of them actually.
The Triggering of Marine is also awesome, especially now that we have it animated. And the way she named the dinosaur they were going to breed in ARK "Matsuri" was also really fun.
Just a few of my favourite Luna moments, moments that those new in the rabbit hole probably won't stumble across any more. The content flows on.
They're still around I think, also when she broke Haachama hahahaha. . I salute you, true Luna enjoyer.
@@GoldenThunderbolt Oh, they are still around, it would be a tragedy if they weren't. I just get the feeling they aren't getting recommended to people who have just fallen down the rabbit hole so they will never know about them. Unless people like us tell them.
I salute you right back. But I wonder what Haachama moment you are thinking of. Because in the clips I am thinking of Luna is clearly the one being triggered. :)
Quick note on korone and okayu's names. In inugami, the gami part is a modified reading of kami, meaning god, and is written with an obscure kanji that refers to the Chinese Zodiac dog. For okayu, nekomata refers to a creature from Japanese folklore.
Luna is the cutest moon baby princess.
She has nothing to do with the moon though. It's just a name. She's all about candy.
@@lilywong9672 both her outfits have tons of moon related motiffs tho.
@@lilywong9672 she has a lot of moon things, not just her name.
@@lilywong9672 bruh, she has a moon on her crown, moon earrings, a lot of moon decorations in her dress, yukata, her casual ourfit is a starry night with moon decorations, her ahoge is a moon
"Kill me." -Nothingbuta_fan 2021
Look at our shnozzy boy learning
As a Luknight i am very happy to see that nagzz finally discovers Luna, i hope he will continue to watch and support her in the coming future.
P.S Luna birthday is at 10/10 so tomorrow i hope everyone will have the time to watch her 3d stream
Nagzz, thank you so much for doing a video on Luna. I discovered your videos last year and now I watch them regularly. Luna is one of my favorite Hololive members and it's so heartwarming to see that she is getting so much love in the community. It is also a nice touch that this video was uploaded the day of her birthday. Keep up the good work. I apologize if my grammar is all over the place, English is not my first language.
I'm pretty sure Inugami means Dog God which is a play on how in English Dog spelled backward is God obviously, Nekomata Means Returning Cat in reference to the 9 lives myth. As a bonus Peko is an onomatopoeia that represents snacking and Pekoras name is a combination of Angora which is a type of rabbit and peko.
Luna might be the most underrated member of Hololive, she's one of my top favorites and everything she does is golden.
Sorry but i disagree with luna being the "most underrated".
@@comfyenjoyer8924 ok
The other princess you were thinking of at the beginning is Pekora, princess of Pekoland.
EDIT: Jumping off something Fan said at the end, it’s not just Subaru Luna’s connected with, those two have formed a mini collab group with Choco and Botan, where it’s mainly Botan carrying them through various FPS games.
Tomorrow is Luna's Birthday, And today is mine. Letss Goooo! Advance Happy Birthday nanoraaaa
Lunaaaaaaa les go. The only thing I wish you could have shown were the hotdogs and Luna playing the piano.
i really hoped that nagzz see the clips where marine and luna drawing or playing together i forgor exactly, and marine is just sick and tired of how luna talks.
It's just fun watching those two bantering at each other
Fan: "She could be a soccer player"
Me: "Neymanora"
Luna's new model is beautiful ngl... the one with the blue dress and beret cap
Biggest missing clip here: the one where Luna got hyped about hugging Subaru
Fun fact, royalty having very weak constitution was very prevalent in most of europe at some point or another. Hemophillia is one of many conditions that royalty commonly had because of a ton of inbreeding ‘to keep the bloodline pure’
One of the best clips of Luna must be of her and Subaru being teetee. I just love Choco sensei with the background commentary.
The true Lunakights enjoy Luna's piano streams!
Luna is one of the ones i've started to warm up to as the months go on
She just has this infectious joy to her, you see this a lot when she is with Subaru and Matsuri
ALSO
Her Electone streams are a god send. They are a great way for me to start the day
I think Luna is one of the best in Hololive when it comes to collabs with other Holomems. The Marine and Luna drawing collab is still among the funniest videos i've seen in awhile. Also Haachama cooking stream with Luna.....
9:22 "nanora" is just her cutsie ending to sentences, like Pekora's "peko". It's short for "na no desu" which is used in explanatory sentences.
Ok, not much extra to give on this one! Luna has been practicing the keyboard for a while now and apparently good quite good at it, what princess-like thing, right? As for clips that might have come up in the stream but not here, there is the crane game fiasco where she throws a fantastic baby tantrum, top Luna content right there. Another one is from Subaru's perspective, when Luna first visited her house and was quite the spoiled princess (this story was animated so check that out), and finally, there's an animation out there with giant-sized Luna having a kaiju fight with giant Watame, godzilla theme included.
Great video, nice day you all, peace!
I just started watching Luna playing her electone
8:24 So, Luna has a few streams where she's practicing to learn the piano and this was one of those pieces she was trying to learn. Obviously, it got an animatic because fans are crazy people devoted to their oshis. :p
For additional context, please view this comment: th-cam.com/video/RrUR40W2RTo/w-d-xo.html&lc=Ugy0s4Q20ciVefwN2sh4AaABAg
14:48 my legitimate reaction to this clip is to say “of course you aren’t, sweetie” in the same tone of voice I used to use with my cousin when she was 5.
More than any other character in Hololive, Luna's ability to keep to her gimmick shows incredible dedication. It seems like her character (especially speech) in particular would be exceptionally difficult.
I will always acknowledge the fact that Luna handles her chat well and also one of chats that are actually not as chaotic and respects Luna.
Also, an hour is not enough for this videos! 👌
I usually watch videos at 2X speed so seeing you slow it down to half was kinda jarring because I was hearing something at normal speed when im so used to it being sped up lmao
If I've been told correctly she injured her neck on that 3D horror stream
Another great discovers both of you! I sweat they keep getting better and better. It's so cool to learn about these girls alongside Nagzz with the help of fan. Can't wait for the next one!
The absolute best girl is here
I believe luna hurt herself after that fall in that 3d horror game
It's not as present these days because Luna doesn't need the help like she used to, but the bond that she has with Matsuri is really sweet. At one point Matsuri said she considers Luna a little sister.
I was hoping the clip of Luna, Coco, and Kanata (?) when they were talking about Luna being demanding at their house and fussing over the bath water! haha
How on earth are you going to do a discover Luna episode without showcasing her absolutely amazing Piano talent?!
For me the way to watch Luna is by trying to see the girl behind the model. Because she's a troll!
Luna is hilarious i think there was a skit with matsuri on the hololive channel that had me dying Luna absolutely killed it also im pretty sure her birthday celebration stream is in a couple hours
Please check out her Electone streams. She's gotten very good at playing it.
Lamy is a noble of the snow elves.
Luna is the princess of the moon forest kingdom.
Also, Gen 2.5/Gamers are all Japanese mythological creatures.
Shirakami Fubuki is a winter fox kitsune (White Goddess, Blizzard)
Ookami Mio is a wolf goddess (Ookami, depending on kanji used, is both Great God and Wolf)
Inugami Korone is a dog goddess of sweet pastries (Dog Goddess, Coronet as in the chocolate coronet pastry)
Nekomat Okayu is a hungry cat-like gremlin (Nekomata are cat gremlins known to annoy priests and shrine goddess, and Okayu is just savory rice pudding).
This is very bittersweet, but Fan's right, her anniversary wish to perform on stage with the rest of 4th Gen in their idol outfits did come true; the reason she wished for that in the first place is that they performed on stage at Hololive's 2nd Fes, but they weren't in their idol outfits at the time because those models weren't ready to use. Their idol outfit versions would be rolled out over the next few months and each used them in individual or collab 3D singing streams, but there wasn't a moment where they were all together for a long while. The chance did come again, and all five of them did perform together on stage in their idol outfits... at Coco's graduation. So it was both the first and last time they'd all be able to perform together like that.
Luna piano streams help me on June and August 2020 when everything was so somber. She's always a piece of fun for everyone.
Back to one of these a week? LETS GO! I really enjoy these vids, thanks Nagzz and Fan for bringing these out :)
FYI Luna's Birthday Live is today in 6 hours here th-cam.com/video/cEJGu0wlFt8/w-d-xo.html be there Luknight
I've been waiting for this video. I'm happy you checked her out already, but disappointed about the video selection more or less...maybe you checked them on stream, but I was hoping to see them here.
In case you or anyone is curious, her piano/electone streams are a must. She's really good at MonHun, and well, showing a bit more of her collabs would've been great, like FestivaLuna content, or SubaChocoLuna.
Still, nice to see this video is out. Give some love to Luna, she's so precious and really deserves more attention.
Fun fact, when she falls during the 3D horror game collab with Subaru she sustains a neck injury.
btw just a bit of context for thoe who didn't know, Luna's English Class is one of the semi regular segments in Coco's morning show, Asacoco. Now you know who writes her script for this 😂
