VTuber Ouro Kronii Addresses Shipping Concerns in the Hololive Community
VTuber Ouro Kronii, known as the Warden of Time, has gained a significant following on YouTube, with over 797,000 subscribers. Recently, during a livestream break from playing “The Last Campfire,” Kronii took the opportunity to discuss her concerns about the practice of “shipping” in the VTuber community, particularly when it involves her and other Hololive idols.
During the livestream, Kronii expressed her discomfort and felt the need to address the issue with her fans. She straightforwardly stated, “Don’t ship people. It’s weird, especially when we’re co-workers. Do you ship your co-workers? Think about it.”
Kronii went on to explain that dating within the workplace is unprofessional and could potentially harm their reputation. She emphasized the importance of maintaining professionalism in their interactions.
Furthermore, Kronii clarified that not all idols are interested in every person they encounter. Everyone has their own preferences and tastes, and it’s essential to respect that. She assured fans who may have a crush on her that not everyone finds her attractive, alleviating any worries they may have had.
In response to Kronii’s statement, viewers pledged to stop shipping Hololive idols and showed their support for her. Some chanted “respect the Warden,” while others apologized for the behavior of those involved in shipping.
Kronii acknowledged that some individuals may initiate shipping for the sake of drama, while others may do so innocently. However, she emphasized that shipping is only acceptable if both parties involved are comfortable with it. Respect for personal boundaries is crucial.
In conclusion, Kronii encouraged fans to continue shipping respectfully if both parties are comfortable with it. She even expressed her appreciation for fan art related to shipping.
While it is evident that shipping makes Kronii uncomfortable, fans who admire her should focus on expressing their support through fan art rather than engaging in shipping practices that could make her feel uneasy.
