Because there's been ongoing crossovers between Sonic the Hedgehog and Inugami Korone (Hololive JP Vtuber), and it seems to become more frequent here in the future now that she has become a Sonic ambassador, I feel the news deserves it's own thread. Any information prior to today will also be welcomed in this thread. As the live stream is still airing and hasn't been translated yet, I will be taking tweets from the Official Sonic JP twitter in chronological order here: Sonic Ambassador announcement: Korone as a dubbed voice actress: Sonic outfit reveal: Korone x SEGA Sound team: EDIT: These tweets are numbered 1,2,4, and "3" was seemingly skipped by the twitter account or misnumbered somehow...
omg this is precious, I always liked her Sonic playthroughs since it feels like she's really enjoying the games, and given how popular her Sonic streams are I'm not surprised she was approached by Sega for something more official. Good for her!
Korone is good content and always seems like she's having fun while doing her thing, so I'm happy for her that she's got this.
Today, Korone is showing off her new Sonic costume, and has an updated background for this stream! Once the stream finishes, I will try to post a high quality image of the background.
Loving those little details like Master Emerald erring and Ring necklace, of course there is the more obvious stuff like the shoes, which no one normally will actually notice, given that vtubers only display upper body most of the time oh, and Knuckles plushie obviously Was a fun stream overall, and glad to see Korone is back, and on top of that getting treated that well by SEGA
Those three 32x’s stacked on top of each other made me laugh so hard omg. Loved what I’ve seen of Korone’s playthroughs and I’ll definitely have to watch more. This is really cool news.
I see that stack and all I can think of is "Knuckles & Knuckles! One's a beatnik, one's a rastafarian!"
I kid you not this doggo has streamed for insane amounts of time in a single sitting... actually *googles*
I love Korone. She actually plays retro games instead of 24/7 Among Us, Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Minecraft every other vtuber does.
There will be Korone themed preorder bonuses for Sonic Frontiers! Preorder bonuses will depend on where it's preordered from!
I’d love to get these over here in america. Not the biggest vtuber fan but honestly korone is adorable and I always love watching clips of her on youtube. She has a western audience so it’s odd to see these being region locked.
I will also bet money they will be available for purchase just after the release becomes stale and they need to bleed some more money out of it lol.
