Now, they want to collab \u2014 once they figure out a solution to the language barrier \u2014 in a crossover for the ages. Valkyrae and Usada Pekora frequently top the charts when it comes to streaming generally, but especially on YouTube. Combined, the two had a total of more than 57 million hours watched in 2021, and were ranked second and third for female streamers respectively. There might not be a lot of overlap between the American and Japanese VTuber\u2019s fanbases, but the sheer number of subscribers is there. So, the two want to make a collaboration happen. Pekora was the first to bring it up, looking back at her 2021 stats and rueing the fact she was third. \u201cValkyrae was the top female streamer last year right? I can\u2019t beat [Amouranth] but I wanted to be at least second place,\u201d Pekora said, according to a translation. A viewer then asked Hololive\u2019s resident rabbit if she wanted to collab with Valkyrae, and the answer was a resounding yes. \u201cI wanted to be invited! Last year, weren\u2019t the famous streamers playing Rust? There was a period when it was popular among the overseas streamers \u2014 like a server for popular streamers [the OfflineTV server] so I went to check it out,\u201d she added. \u201cPlease invite Pekora if you guys are going to play. Please do invite me. I\u2019ll power my way through [speaking English]: \u2018Hey hey, Japanese cute rabbit,\u2019 saying things like that.\u201d While Peko is aware of her weak English skills, Valkyrae still wants to make it happen. \u201cShe wants to do something, but what could we do? She spoke a little English \u2014 she said \u2018cute bunny rabbit\u2019. What could we do where there\u2019d be very little language barrier but also fun? I don\u2019t know,\u201d the American added on her own stream. \u201cMaybe we could do Gartic Phone? We could do Among Us? Among Us would be funny. We would just have to go off of behavior.\u201d The related segment begins at 1:25:40. The biggest challenge in Valk\u2019s eyes will be getting a hold of Peko though. \u201cHow are we supposed to communicate, via clips,\u201d she laughed. \u201cI don\u2019t know if it\u2019s as easy as that. From my understanding of the VTubing world \u2014 it\u2019s under a whole company, right? I could just DM her, but can I DM her in English? They have managers\u2026I don\u2019t know, we\u2019ll figure something out.\u201d If the two manage to join forces, it\u2019ll be a collab for the ages in gaming. It\u2019ll also open up Valkyrae to the world of VTubers, and that\u2019s a rabbit hole that could lead her to a bright, new future in 2022 beyond her OfflineTV circle. Now, it\u2019s just a matter of waiting and seeing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valkyrae wants to collab with Hololive\u2019s Usada Pekora in huge YouTube crossover YouTube: Valkyrae \/ YouTube: Pekora Ch.Valkyrae and Hololive star Usada Pekora are two of the biggest names in YouTube streaming.
