This VTUBER shocked me with her voice! | Vocal Coach Reaction to Stellar Stellar / The First Take

Hello everyone! If you want more of my reactions make sure to join my Patreon www.patreon.com/katriinkamusic , thank you for supporting my channel and helping me create more videos for you! :) Vocal Lessons: www.katriinka.com/

Susei is really the epitome of being a self made talent. When she started V-Tubing she not only created her own avatar (drew, rigged and animated it) but it's remained basically the same and she's the only Vtuber to come into Hololive as an independent Vtuber to keep their model. She literally made herself into a Star via hard work, talent and determination. Like others have said she just got back a couple months ago from Throat Surgery and beyond all of this she's one of the finest Tetris competitive players in the world. An amazing person all around.

Just to point this out, becuase I find it very interesting: Suisei made a Twitter Space after this video went online and told her experience and behind the scene for this take. Yes, she did it in one take (that's the rule of that studio room) and she was nervious, but because she was the first VTuber appearing on The First Take, so she was thinking that if she screwed up here, she would be screwing up for every one else. One thing to note is that the staff and her manager, during the meeting, suggested to Suisei to not do an introduction and warm up like others and just go for the singing, since there were people who didn't know about VTubers and others that doesn't like VTubers in general, they suggested to blow them away with her singing. This worked out perfectly, she blow them away and after some initial negative comments, after she began to sing, no one was saying anything.

Considering Suisei announced that she would be taking a 1.5-month break from streaming to undergo a throat surgery in September and returned to her activities with a live concert in November is truly admirable. So much hard work, passion and talent among the hololive members.

What a time to be alive when we're having a serious discussion about the vocal talents of a girl who the community fears as an axe-swinging Tetris God.

Three funfacts: 1. This is her performance after she stop singing (and talking) for over a month due to her throat surgery. She said she wants to postpone this video and her live concert because she worried her singing voice isn't at 100%. But due to schedule and tickets already sold she decided to go through with them. 2. Since you're curious about singer vtubers, you can also check Ayunda Risu's Alice&U. She's so good at singing but she don't have enough fund to make a lot of original or cover songs. Also she hired a vocal coach but the coach said that Ayunda pitch is amazing and she has nothing to teach Ayunda. 3. While Suisei made a ton of Original and cover songs, she also stream herself playing games, especially Tetris. She's so good at online Tetris she can go toe to toe with world's top #1, 2, 3, and 4 Tetris players.

Probably another interesting thing about her is that she's entirely self-taught, even until now. According to herself and other vtubers around her, she's a very instinctual person. She can't really explain how she does it most of the times. Her training method basically consist of recording her own singing, listening to it, and then experimenting / tweaking a few parts to her own liking, record it again, tweak it again, rinse and repeat until she's satisfied with the result.

Honestly, Suisei being THE FIRST V-tuber to ever make it onto "The First Take" is something to take note of. Not only has this V-tuber been through hell, but she's gone from indie V-tuber, to Hololive super star in just a matter of 3 YEASR. AND THE FACT SHE DID THIS AFTER HAVING THROAT SURGERY A MONTH BEFORE THE PERFORMANCE!!! She has definitely earned earned the respect of every musician and V-tuber in the world.

thank you for your reactions and opinions, sometimes it's enough for us to just enjoy the artist's song behind the avatar without having to judge their original appearance

You had me in the first half with that intro lmao. I was like, “no way she actually called Suisei A.I.”

I've watched a lot of your videos for other artists and songs I like, but I don't think I've ever been as invested as I've been with this one.

Thank you for being one of the only (if not the only) reactions that give us hoshiyomi a proper technical reaction to suisei and only lightly and very politley touch on her model herself. There are so many reactions out there that just either can't get over the vtuber model or don't believe she's even live in the studio in person, comment on it and downplay her skill because of it, instead of giving a proper analytical look at what she is bringing to the first take. Yes we get it, it's not a 3d person you're looking at, but that's not what suisei wants you to pay the majority of your attention to for her song, its the song itself. For someone who is musically inclined but not of the vocal variety (and Im sure not the only who feels this way after watching your reaction), I really hope you do another video for her next first take performance which comes out tomorrow and look forward to it.

Suisei will be coming back on the first take this Wednesday with another song as well~

Hoshimachi Suisei are the first VTUBERS appeared at The First Take, but a lot of VTUBERS has great singing talent, maybe you should check some of them

A bit of curiosity: the guy playing guitar here is Inoue Taku, the composer and producer for this and some other of Suisei's songs. He's also a composer for Idolm@ster, one of the biggest multimedia projects in Japan. After listening to some of Suisei's older songs, he fell in love with her voice and offered to compose a song specifically for her to sing. The result was 3時12分, translating roughly to "3:12 AM", which I personally really love. They eventually formed a two man band: Midnight Grand Orchestra and continue to work closely on their individual carreers as well.

I think you put it perfectly whats so cool about having a virtual avatar. It's only about how talented you are and looks don't really matter (or can be modified). The fact that most of the big vtubers are not only singers and dancers but are also gaming streamers who entertain thousands of people live is just... yeah they are the full entertainment package!

How much you were able to get out of just hearing her voice is the main point. Vtubers are/were a niche genre and they were worried about getting mainstream negativity, so her managers and her decided to not do the standard intro and just sing, to shut up the haters before they have a chance to dismiss her or lose intrest. It worked.

There are many Hidden gems in the Vtuber Industry especially when the "subculture" was just starting. Suisei started in 2018, it was a struggle back then due to low subscribers/viewership and thought multiple times about quitting but fortunately here we are with her being the first representative of Vtubers in first take. FYI, she will be back at first take in Wednesday 22:00 JST

I've been watching you since your reaction to Lisa and now I can't believe you reacted to my fav vtuber singer! She opened the path for vtubers to the mainstream and both her fans and colleagues are really proud. Vtubers are basically content creators that use avatar and some of them are pursuing their career as an artist. Suisei often streams on her channel and her contents usually playing games, live singing, or just talking.

And all of that singing came from someone that has been on throat surgery september last year, this song is all her struggle manifest as she wrote the lyric but the powerful notes are request from her management. To be a declaration/warcry that Vtuber will and shall be known by general public
