YMMV / Phase-Connect

• Fan Nickname: Phase-Connect as a whole is called either the Menhera Group or the Sad Girl Company due to the collection of....eccentric VTubers....
  • Case in point. Some of what the Phase-Connect VTubers can say to one another would have most large corporate talents immediately be infracted.
• Heartwarming Moments: Pippa trying to sing "Thank You, Next" but becoming tearful and very appreciative for the fans who supported her for so long.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Pippa has, on multiple occasions, described herself as "Walmart Pekora", with emphasis on the "Walmart" given that the only thing she had in common with Pekora was being a rabbit girl. Fast forward to the introduction of Phase Connect's second generation, where it would be revealed that Pekora's artist would be responsible for the design of one of PhaseALIAS' talents, Shiina Amanogawa.
• Memetic Mutation:
  • "I'M GONNA FUCKING SHOOT UP A WALMAAAAAART!!!!!!"^ExplanationPippa's Getting Over It stream has her rage like crazy over her attempts to climb up and failing, suddenly screaming the above phrase before quickly saying "In Minecraft".
  • Mega Idol ^ExplanationPippa the Ripper portrayed her as a Messianic Archetype. To this day she's still embarrassed by her orisong, which was why she hid it under a shitpost and constantly denies it.
  • Wontons.^ExplanationThey're associated with Shiina for some reason.
  • Fussy baby ^ExplanationLia earned this nickname after failing in an Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader game. Not helped by her "bratty little sister" behaviour.
  • DO NOT TRUST ^ExplanationWhenever Lumi is discussed, the comments and replies are suddenly spammed by how untrustworthy she is, portraying her as a Memetic Psychopath.
  • White Girls Fuck Dogs ^ExplanationLumi actually sang this on stream. Thus on top of being a Memetic Psychopath, she's also portrayed as being into bestiality.
  • Just buy the Coffee, ok? ^ExplanationSakana is often portrayed as being more concerned with his coffee sales than with the talents, which comes up whenever he does something obstructive. Not helped by how Pippa publicly expressed her distaste for her own coffee.
  • FlaVR: Baked Fresh ^ExplanationPippa made a fake vtuber company and it ended up becoming real. Complete with its own Rushia-scale yab in Milla Vanilla, and Pippa herself getting cancelled for sexual harassment.
  • Eating Mike Tyson's Ass^ExplanationIn Late 2023, the user who had made a name for himself within the hololive community for the reactions that various members had to reading his name aloud, started donating superchats to the Phase Connect talents.
  • DizzyxSakana^ExplanationA pretty funny meme of people shipping Dizzy with her boss. Much to the former's eternal annoyance.
• Moe:
  • Remilia. From her tragic backstory defined by loneliness and ostracism, to her childlike voice combined with a lisp, to her chuunibyou mannerisms, to her attempts to assert herself as a dominating and fearful villain only to end up being an absolutely adorable and kind cinnamon roll, Remi is just someone whom you just want to hug to assure her that everything will be okay.
  • Pippa also counts, not just from her design, but also in a rather Tsundere manner. Yes, her content can be rather controversial, edgy, brash or transgressive, and she herself often tends to swear and try to act boisterous. But the more you watch her the more you realise she's actually incredibly sweet and empathic on the inside; even her own friends and coworkers constantly say this. She's defined by her honesty, but behind the scenes she's also defined by genuine caring and compassion for others, not just for fellow Phase (she didn't like that she was given special rules) but also for her audience (she reads every name even if it exhausts her), and her Aspiring Vtuber streams show that she wants people who are passionate in the art to grow. Although her anxiety, Impostor Syndrome and "Pipkin" causes her communication problems that she's actually utterly afraid to mess up, and her existential zatsudans admit that she's someone who's Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life, that which she found in Vtubing. Then you realise that watching her is like the experience of having a somewhat manic little sister who acts up in your presence but in the end, in reality, she's actually just a very shy, kind, introspective and selfless girl whom you just want to protect. Just show her images of cute animals or wholesome moments (e.g., from her oshi Watame) and you'd know what "Pippa Love" truly means.
• Unfortunate Character Design: Runie Ruse's initial design for the Runatics (creature that represents her fanbase) looked a little...questionable, to say the least, much her embarrassment. She later redesigned it to look less phallic.
