hololive English is holding auditions for virtual content creators! Take your first step toward your dreams with hololive English! 👀✨

Edit: Note: Apparently auditions have been permanently opened for a while and this is just a reminder. However, due to other recent events detailed in my comments below, this audition reminder could still indicate a new gen is on the way. I wouldn’t expect any news for at least the next six months.

    Ferumi Kaipa formerly Zumi Dokumi of EIEN Project (public knowledge) is suspected to be one of the new talents (or was at the very least invited to audition before the public audition announcement).

    Via her announcement stream:

    • (8:39) She is going on a sudden indefinite hiatus “as Ferumi Kaipa” (despite debuting a new outfit a few weeks ago).
    • (10:00) She got a life-changing professional opportunity that she would regret not taking.
    • (10:48) Ferumi is not graduating, but on indefinite hiatus, “[She is] waiting for the stars to align again, even if they are in a different sky”, “I’ll be stepping away to focus on what lies ahead”, “Trust me when I say this is not me giving up, or leaving what we made behind.”
    • (11:48) “It’s hard to explain right now, but when you see the opportunity ahead of me, […], you’ll understand.”
    • (14:30) “This isn’t goodbye, it’s ‘see you later.’” “Nothing will go in vain, even if it looks and sounds different, please remember me.”
    • (16:03) “Even though I can’t say a lot right now, I want you to know that this is not the end and I am so fucking excited.” “I just can’t wait for you to see the woman that I thought could not exist, that I will be.” “When […] this opportunity unfolds I know that you will understand.”
    • (18:03) Flashes a “Hollow Knight” graphic. “Did you see it?”

      Both this and the other comment don’t say anything for sure, but it’s been a while since Justice debuted so it could definitely happen.

      I’m always very conflicted about new gens, on one hand more people makes Holo even harder to follow (which is a very minor downside in the grand scheme but I still end up thinking that lol), on the other they always recruit great talents and I’m happy they’ve been given their chance to shine. Overall, the current pace is good, as long as we don’t get into Nijisanji-level of spamming gens it’s fine.

        100% agree on the point that more talents isn’t necessarily better. I would prefer holoEN doesn’t get much larger, but realistically they need to keep scouting talents and taking auditions in order to account for talents that inevitability graduate. I just don’t want anyone to feel like they are being replaced, pushed out, or made irrelevant.
