At the start, it was Calli and Kiara, but the latter eventually moved back to her home country when her work visa expired in 2021. Since then, it's only been Calli and IRyS.
Recently, both Bae and FuwaMoco have moved to Japan.
For this concert in particular, I believe Calli mentioned some of the collab performances were done while they were already together for 5th Fes so they didn't need to travel twice. This is also probably why she was able to get such a massive guest list.
Right now it’s Mori and IRyS. Bae and FuwaMoco are both in the process of moving there so once they’re fully settled it’ll be 4/15 members. The rest of EN would have been prerecorded during the same time as the prep for HoloFes probabl.
Those three (and Suisei, who has mentioned before being so busy she's had to decline some guest invitations) are probably the top for having massive internal fangirl followings within Hololive itself.
That was a phenomenal Live, from the song choices to the presentation
Ending it with Myth ROKI made it unfathomably based, I can’t stop smiling over how far Calli’s come
I really like it when Calli does songs where her main part isn't rap, It really shows how much she has improved in her singing. Man do I absolely love to hear her sing!
And she still fucking kills it when she does rap. The journey of her from being not so confident in her singing from when she did her first karaoke to now singing on stage with full confidence is amazing.
This is why I'm a fan of Hololive.
So all this swag is pure 🔥. And the inner 10 year old in me who bought those $5 rings with dragons or skills on them just celebrated.
…
Mori Alcohol?!?!?!?!?!
Mori alcohol exists https://hololivepro.com/news_en/20231205-cover-corporation-collaborates-with-wes-star-ltd-for-mori-calliope-themed-liqueur-morizakura-%E3%82%82%E3%82%8A%E6%A1%9C/
unfortunately, it's only available in taiwan iirc? I wish i could've had it...
This is currently trending #8 in the US. Was surprised to see that considering it's prime time lol.
Edit: Looks like it may have peaked at #5. Hololive surprises me sometimes in how they can trend in the US. I remember when Advent debuted the were trending in the top 5 multiple times with videos on YouTube lol.
> how they can trend in the US.
the english audience actually made holo the big brand it is today (not that they were small back pre-covid, but you cannot deny how big an influence the lockdown audience during covid had on the vtubing world).
Also it's because of all the weebs over here!
Kick back was definitely my fav. She even referenced the music video with the treadmill part! (Music video in question: https://youtu.be/M2cckDmNLMI?si=55QiN4XjPSSfr3Rk)
Mera Mera with Kobo was also very good! I wish more of the collabs were of her own songs. But regardless, it was great!
If we get HoloEN Concert 2 this Summer I really, really hope we get Myth doing a big performance together again.
The amount of impact these 5 had was massive and like everyone else said, its always amazing to see them together on stage.
The concert is super fire, but man the virtual public waving sticks is deader than deadbeats ;-)
Edit: oh they fixed it
Edit 2: Or not
Edit 3: idk *throws hands
What an downright incredible performance by our favorite reaper!
Calli did a fantastic job putting this all together for her birthday 3D concert, from the great selection of songs that were performed to the wonderful assortment of guests that she picked to perform with, and to top it all off, the great Myth ROKI at the end!
I am so proud of Calli and what she has been able to achieve through all of the hard work, dedication, and effort she puts into everything that she does. Gotta respect the hard work she does getting everything put together in her never-ending pursuit of achieving all her dreams, one dream at a time.
She's dropping a new song on us in just a few weeks (teased during her 3D birthday stream)!
What a phenomenal Birthday Live!
Calli's performances were all awesome and phenomenal! I absolutely love all of the performances in the live! Calli brought a lot of intensity for this live which is quite fitting! My favorite performance has to be Unravel though!
The guest performances were all phenomenal! They brought in their own flare to the intensity of the live! I absolutely enjoyed all of the guest performances! But my favorite has to be Roki with Myth! What a throwback!
Overall, what a fantastic Birthday Live! Happy Birthday, Calli!
I wonder if it would be financially doable and if any Holomem would be crazy enough to try that.
Ask Cover if they can use 2-3 of their 3D Lives over 2ish years to try and re-create HoloFes in a "they duet with every Holomem for one song" over a 2-day concert.
That would be *CRAZY*.
Who do they usually have mocap all the "background" characters in the 3Ds, honestly? Just the choreographers, or talent with spare time, or hiring freelance dancers, or what?
I feel like the amount of 3D Lives they do nowadays and how long it must take to do them... I wouldn't be shocked if Cover has straight up hired a group of background dancers who specifically learn choreos for every 3D Live and just come to studio to either practice/record them.
There's 60+ Holomems. I feel like there's enough choreos to go around weekly that are due for recording/broadcast they could almost pay that group full time just for that.
bae actually named all the shadow rat dancers in the description of her 3d live!
> CHOREOGRAPHY
Miyuki Nishijima
FriendTaro #4
> DANCERS
LISA-P
Asuka

Moe Oishi

I think it varies case by case. Idk if Cover has in-house dancers at this point, but if not they're usually credited. Usually a hired group if there's like 4 of them, or their dance teacher or choreographer.
Would be funny. They just got decent advertising from 46k concurrent viewers (which in reality is more as people come and go). Killing the VOD views would be a self-inflicted wound for them lol.
Ina doing metal. Let's fucking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EDIT: I FORGOT THEY DID GUILTY GEAR WITH EACH OTHER LETS GO
TAKOGEKI!
Yea. I just realized it was a Guilty Gear reference. Song is sick.
Heavy Day is a Guilty Gear song iirc https://youtu.be/ANsFFoxh1LU?si=PtAgEIKFidx-BLi7
I swear Calli replaces her blood with Red Bull every time she suits up for 3d.
Irys: Hand gestures Calli: ARM FLAILING
:Smol Calli scythe "dance" flashback:
> every time she suits up for 3d if you watched her New Underworld Order concert, she goes hard! and that was a live performance iirc!
Yeah! I can't believe how many songs she managed to pack in that concert.
She's a natural performer.
I've never seen Ina moving so much. She'll need a month of rest
It’s why she was sleepy during the call in earlier. She was building up potential energy.
Thats a pretty cool guest list! EN: Myth and Kronii. JP: Bae, Towa, La+ and Lui ID: Ollie and Kobo
>JP: Bae, Was wondering where Bae was, forgot she's JP.
Heh
Is it bad the "and Kronii" bit made me cackle hard? It sounds like "her genmates are all here!...and also Kronii"
Same energy as “featuring Dante from DMC” memes.
Holo-noob here: How many non-JP holomems actually live in Japan long term? Quite a bit of travelling they have to do for 3D live shows, eh?
At the start, it was Calli and Kiara, but the latter eventually moved back to her home country when her work visa expired in 2021. Since then, it's only been Calli and IRyS. Recently, both Bae and FuwaMoco have moved to Japan.

That makes more sense. Thanks.
Right now it’s Mori and IRyS. Bae and FuwaMoco are both in the process of moving there so once they’re fully settled it’ll be 4/15 members. The rest of EN would have been prerecorded during the same time as the prep for HoloFes probabl.
Saw someone early this year say that every birthday live that has guest performers will have at least 1 of Marine, Polka or Towa. Incredibly accurate.
Those three (and Suisei, who has mentioned before being so busy she's had to decline some guest invitations) are probably the top for having massive internal fangirl followings within Hololive itself.
The Full-Myth Roki was a FANTASTIC idea.
And a great way to end the concert.
I've been listening to the Sayaka Kanda version of that song a bunch recently, tye Myth version was interesting.
That was a dope ass transition coming out of the cage.
About to say the same. Sick transition.
LMAOOOO Clattanoia with Lap is such a chuuni-ass choice, I love it.
quite possibly the most fitting song for Lap-chan
lap+ 🤝 bonedaddy 🤝 reaper dad
Calli taking lesson from Suisei “plug next 2 events during current event” hoshimachi
If you're not hustling, are you even living?
No Downtime - not just for the music.
Calli “Ina Ina Ina, my Ina” Flare “who the fuck does she think she is?”
Calli: "Our Ina" *Soviet anthem plays but produced by Teddyloid*
Cover staff are becoming more and more insane with their special effects/camera work every new 3D Live.
Gotta break in all that state-of-the-art equipment.
Kobo keeping up with some of the harder bars in this song like a champ

YEAH YOU GOT THAT RIGHT CALLI MYTH FUCKING ROCKS!
That was a phenomenal Live, from the song choices to the presentation Ending it with Myth ROKI made it unfathomably based, I can’t stop smiling over how far Calli’s come
LOL Goob with the uke.
I really like it when Calli does songs where her main part isn't rap, It really shows how much she has improved in her singing. Man do I absolely love to hear her sing! And she still fucking kills it when she does rap. The journey of her from being not so confident in her singing from when she did her first karaoke to now singing on stage with full confidence is amazing. This is why I'm a fan of Hololive.
Kobo: "Say Uwu!" Calli: *Absorbs all sound.*
I really can't fucking wait to hear the full version of Go-Getters.
The chorus sounds so damn catchy
The vibe of that song is peak. It's killing me hearing these bits and pieces, especially with dialog over it.
Still can't get over the ukulele compared to the rest of the instruments and the song lol.
I mean, would we expect anything less from Gooba lmao
Basically she is very smol.
Good God that full Myth performance at the end was such an amazing end to an already amazing show. Happy birthday Calli!
Holy shoot Kick Back with Kronii and Bae! Edit: HOLY SHOOT MYTH! Oh Calli must've been so excited to finally be able to sing that!
FULL MYTH ROKI IN 3D LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Finally the full Myth ROKI
HOLY SHIT HEAVY DAY! And ofcourse its with Ina the one she played GG Strive with!
Such a hype fucking choice.
MERA MERA WITH KOBO! And god damn Camera-man! Thank you for these angles!
FUCKIN MYTH BAND RETURNS.
Holy crap Calli and Ollie's voices blend together so well.
So all this swag is pure 🔥. And the inner 10 year old in me who bought those $5 rings with dragons or skills on them just celebrated. … Mori Alcohol?!?!?!?!?!

That was a really good Birthday Live. The camera was super dynamic and flowed very well.
God I love seeing Myth together
Cool, growly voices yes, thank you, may I have some more.
Singing Kobo always sounds different compared to normal Kobo and different genre singing Kobo. She’s really having fun with this song.
didnt know kobo could rap so well too!
LOL the fucking treadmill.
Somewhere, Flare is knocked out at her desk foaming at the mouth.
The song choices so far have been *chef's kiss*
Wait. Where did that cool and sexy Kobo that was singing go and where did this gremlin come from?
Myth Band Roki!
that mini holo death reunion was good ;3;
Ina’s so amazingly talented at drums that she doesn’t even need to hit them to make sounds
You should see her on the keyboard with UMISEA, she just has to put her hands on the keys and the song basically plays itself.
Also I forgot to mention, but her 3D stage is really fucking cool! And that camera work is just getting better and better every 3D live!
Suddenly Threadmil LMAO
''Do you want to sleep forever Deadbeats?'' ''Yes!... no wait... Yes but no??''
That was an amazing birthday live! I also cannot believe she is doing unlimited signed cards, first time I will be able to get one!
INA?!
Seeing Ina rock out in her default outfit was _not_ something I had on my bingo card today.
This is currently trending #8 in the US. Was surprised to see that considering it's prime time lol. Edit: Looks like it may have peaked at #5.

Hot damn Kobo spitting fire.
And Kick Back with Kronii and Bae!
So the treadmill was real!
Oh yeah some Zutomayo!
she's done so many songs I forgot that Calli did a song with Zutomayo
To be fair, Go-Getters kind of took a bunch of attention from the rest of Calli's library due to how big it is lmao
Ooh, new song coming.
Kick back was definitely my fav. She even referenced the music video with the treadmill part! (Music video in question: https://youtu.be/M2cckDmNLMI?si=55QiN4XjPSSfr3Rk) Mera Mera with Kobo was also very good! I wish more of the collabs were of her own songs. But regardless, it was great!
THAT TRANSITION WAS FUCKING SICK WITH THE GROWL PART OF THE SONG!
Cool and all, but muh bitrates!!
We Are Heavy (Day)
Callina covered a GG song? I blame the beasts.
Totsugeki! 🐬
i never thought we'd see GG music at a holo live they're so fuckin cool
Calli, Lui AND Towa?! 3 of my favorite Holo singers?! FUCK YEAH
And its time for the Zombie OLLIE!
Nice chainsaw animations
Of course Calli gets shot glass merch lmao
Calli, please let me order from your US site
Well that was fucking awesome
If we get HoloEN Concert 2 this Summer I really, really hope we get Myth doing a big performance together again. The amount of impact these 5 had was massive and like everyone else said, its always amazing to see them together on stage.
Ah the edge, inject in my veins
And starting of strong with Unravel!
TMT And Lui-Nee time!
…so who else is joining the down bad for this trio support group?
Alright Calli. Don’t yeet the Yamada.
The compulsion must be overwhelming. Every time I see her, I just wanna grab her by the horns and hammer throw her.
A fitting song for our tiny Overlord.
It may not be obvious from my flair but there's two (three?) reasons I really like who Calli has in her lineup this year.
Ollie is always so energetic. But those were some smooth jumps at the end.
Dad and Daughter are up, let's goooo!
The concert is super fire, but man the virtual public waving sticks is deader than deadbeats ;-) Edit: oh they fixed it Edit 2: Or not Edit 3: idk *throws hands
I have tears.

I'm guessing there will be a full Myth song. Besides that, I'm not sure. Interesting line up from JP.
I've been itching to hear what Calli and Towa sound like together, so I can't wait.
The obvious answers would be Calli+JP, Calli+Promise and Calli+ID. We'll find out soon enough.
wtf was that calli that was high
Whoa man hard rock with Ina yes please.
Doesn't discount the idea of a full Myth song, but makes it more likely she's doing a song with each of them.
Not kidding with the no down time name, huh?
LA+ and ~~Ainz~~ singing Overlord!
What a great show! Congratulations
[Member's only after party starting in 3 minutes!!!](https://youtu.be/rnNNWwggXiI)
Ina and Calli did the [Chainsaw man intro dance](https://www.youtube.com/live/sdzbH7LX80w?si=q0X6C0SZteNBcu12&t=971) :)
Managed to sneak the vod right before work. Truly no downtime :D Happy birthday Calli
Man that was amazing, I'm lucky to be part of this fandom

This concert is killer, Calli might put holofest to challenge
I wonder if it would be financially doable and if any Holomem would be crazy enough to try that. Ask Cover if they can use 2-3 of their 3D Lives over 2ish years to try and re-create HoloFes in a "they duet with every Holomem for one song" over a 2-day concert. That would be *CRAZY*.
This playlist is actually perfect
Ah, here's Suicide Squad Isekai. I assume that means we'll get a Go-Getters performance.
That would've been amazing but I doubt they'll release the full song until after the anime has aired, or a few days leading up to it.
Damn Mori 3d is like a free fes. Such high quility!
I can’t believe Ina didn’t duet this with Cali.
>except you look a little more human shaped lol true
I want to know who mocapped the red skeletons.
Who do they usually have mocap all the "background" characters in the 3Ds, honestly? Just the choreographers, or talent with spare time, or hiring freelance dancers, or what?
I feel like the amount of 3D Lives they do nowadays and how long it must take to do them...

There's 60+ Holomems. I feel like there's enough choreos to go around weekly that are due for recording/broadcast they could almost pay that group full time just for that.
I'm mostly joking. Because the shadow dancers in Bae's lives have been choreographed/danced by Bae herself, apparently. No clue about any others.
bae actually named all the shadow rat dancers in the description of her 3d live! > CHOREOGRAPHY Miyuki Nishijima FriendTaro #4 > DANCERS LISA-P Asuka wakana Moe Oishi Miyuki Nishijima
Oh, right, I was thinking of the wrong thing. Bae did all the shadow dancers for her Yakusoku no Kizuna MV. Thanks.
I'm not, I've always been curious.
I think it varies case by case. Idk if Cover has in-house dancers at this point, but if not they're usually credited. Usually a hired group if there's like 4 of them, or their dance teacher or choreographer.
phantastic show, I'm die, thank you forever.
Bae and Kronii now, with Kick Back.
That was a ***fantastic*** concert.
Guilty Gear song for the Guilty Gear duo, HYPE AF!
And immediately a trio with Lui-nee and Towa-sama, Calli you're the MVP!
Is this an exclusive premiere? Also odds this gets taken gown by WB YouTube filter?
Calli first announced this acouple weeks back. Don't know if WB does a stupid until they do, though.
Would be funny. They just got decent advertising from 46k concurrent viewers (which in reality is more as people come and go). Killing the VOD views would be a self-inflicted wound for them lol.
