Four months after hololive production<\/strong> provided the<\/span> opening act for Riot Games ONE<\/span><\/a>, six of its VTuber talents descended to the Land Down Under for another gaming event performance: the \u201chololive production x DreamHack Melbourne 2024: Down Under\u201d concert. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYour local Aussie rat has come home!\u201d declared <\/span>Hakos Baelz<\/b>, drawing a roar of approval from the packed <\/span>Rod Laver Arena.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to VTubers in general, I have to confess that their music activities are not one of the main areas I engage with. I <\/span>have<\/span><\/i> enjoyed more than a few VTuber songs \u2014 \u201cPurple Disease,\u201d \u201cShunkan Heartbeat,\u201d and \u201cBibideba\u201d among them \u2014 but I spend much more time listening to their <\/span>zatsudan<\/span><\/i> (free talk) streams and livestream commentary and viewing clips than I do watching 3D lives. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But with Anime Trending\u2019s resident VTuber expert occupied, it fell upon me to cover the livestream of hololive\u2019s first-ever Australian concert, which was <\/span>hosted on SPWN<\/span><\/a>. It was around an hour of performances from hololive English\u2019s <\/span>Mori Calliope<\/b> and Baelz (to be referred to as Calli and Bae, respectively, for the rest of the article)<\/span>, <\/b>hololive Japan\u2019s <\/span>Houshou Marine<\/b> and <\/span>Tokoyami Towa<\/b>, and hololive Indonesia\u2019s <\/span>Kureiji Ollie <\/b>and <\/span>Pavolia Reine<\/b>. The setlist featured 12 songs, and every hololive member, or holomem, had a solo performance.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
