Any of the hosts going to ask Doppio about Aster Arcadia/Xigneon being a well known sexual predator?

This is a rather surprising choice given all the controversies that have been surrounding Nijisanji EN for a while now.
I wonder if integrating a VTuber model into the stream will pose any additional technical hurdles (on top of the ones it feels like the Trailer Watch Party always experiences).

Collaborating with Nijisanji EN sure is a choice...

I see it as you can't hold grudges forever, and there's a time & place to question things.

Nice event and sure Doppio will bring the energy!

I hope we can expect "Walpurgisnacht Rising" very soon.

I mean if this was asking him about working for the toxic Nijisanji EN that would be interesting, but knowing what this will enviably be I can't help but question if this is a healthy use of ANNs platform or not.

I'm sure the effects of this will be negligible.

Oof, only got as far as the guy's intro (on Facebook since Pony Canyon pulled it on YouTube). Guess I'll watch the trailers on my own. Anime catgrin + sweatdrop

Kind of a shame, the guy's character was too unbearably cringey for me to watch lol I just couldn't bring myself to watch it for more than like 20 minutes

Yeah, maybe I’m just old, but this trailer watch party was the weakest so far.

No, the one with Gigguk was the weakest one of them all because he had already seen all the trailers and was obviously bored. That, and there was almost no interaction with chat as they couldn't read any comment.

Or the one with ProZD where he hardly reacted to the trailers at all.

This one was actually pretty good. Doppio was quite knowledgeable about anime, had some great takes on older shows, and even pronounced the plural for anime correctly, which many simply don't.

I watched on Facebook (no login required). Avatars are OK, but the avatar design and animation is cringe. I used the fast forward key to make him bearable.
