The Vtuber Alternate Costume Tagging Proposal

Posted under Tags

TheGamingRodent said in forum #444145:

Maybe, you should make the costume tags for people who don't know Waktverse? That way it should be easier, and if Lilpa is working on the point system, then we should use said point system (so like her debut costume with her 1.0, followed by her 2.0, then hew NewNewLilpa, which would be her 3.0, her 2025 would be her 4th and her Nameless her 5th)

Got it. Then using the release/reveal date as the main reference point probably makes sense.

Show

For some context, Lilpa has roughly three or four major avatar generations: her early self-made VRoid avatar, the BOOTH model-based avatar after she was accepted, her first original avatar NewLilpa, and her second original avatar NewNewLilpa.

There are also various costumes used for specific content or cover songs in between those major avatar generations.

Now, it's time for the semi-regular Hololive costume check-up! Using the new-and-improved List™, here's what we have left:

tokino_sora_(8th_costume) - as mentioned last time, we have two options so far; the first is reusing (streetwear), while the second is whipping up a name based off of post #9309966, which calls it her 「モノトーン絶対領域パンツ衣装」, or "Monotone zettai ryouiki pants" costume
akai_haato_(8th_costume) - still have no idea what this might be, again, is this (streetwear)?
akai_haato_(10th_costume) - the commentary on post #11382036 calls it her 「バスタイム新衣装」, or "New bathtime costume"; so would it make sense to lump this under (roomwear), or would we be calling it her (bathtime) costume?
shirakami_fubuki_(11th_costume) & ookami_mio_(10th_costume) - just as with Suisei and Miko's MiComet matching costumes, these are FubuMio matching costumes, so if we don't want to go with (school_uniform), (fubumio) is an option
minato_aqua_(8th_costume) - as said last, she's already a cat girl maid (forum #297436), so invoking 'cat' in the qualifier would be a bad idea, but (*_maid) is definitely what would have to be invoked; given it is pink and frilly, maybe (girly_maid)?
murasaki_shion_(8th_costume) - still have no idea what this might be, again, is this (streetwear)?
oozora_subaru_(9th_costume) - as was previously mentioned (forum #439695), Ui-mama called it her Sailor [セーラー] costume, but whether or not this matches Hololive's use of sailor (forum #373404) is a different matter; one could make the argument that the tracksuit that's also included reflects a school sailor context, as opposed to Hololive's casual sailor, meaning it should be (school_uniform) instead
ookami_mio_(8th_costume) - as said previously, (casual) and (street) are out of the question, while (street_casual) is an open option given qualifier precedent, but has she used any other terms or names for it, or are there any narrower names we could go with?
nekomata_okayu_(8th_costume) - still have no idea what this might be, again, is this (streetwear)?
inugami_korone_(9th_costume) - very obviously horror/Halloween-inspired, but would either (horror) or (halloween) be fine?
shiranui_flare_(8th_costume) - (casual) and (street) are out of the question, again, while (street_casual) is an open option given qualifier precedent, but do we have other options?
shirogane_noel_(5th_costume) - still have no idea what this might be, again, is this (streetwear)?
himemori_luna_(7th_costume) - (casual) is out of the question, but is (street) an option, or has she used any other terms?
yukihana_lamy_(5th_costume) - I, I, still don't know, man
momosuzu_nene_(7th_costume) - it gives me genius scientist vibes, and the commentary for post #9655149 affirms that, calling it her 「平成女児風昆虫博士コーデ」, or "Heisei Retro (lit. Heisei Girl-style) insect professor (entomologist??) outfit"; the qualifier idea (girl_genius) popped into my mind, but that post commentary name does provide a lot of jumping off points
shishiro_botan_(5th_costume) - post #7686894's commentary still makes me think space-themed, but is it?
omaru_polka_(5th_costume) - this feels like it could fall under Natsuiro Matsuri (Street Casual)'s qualifier, though that one has to be debated given the reveal of its name as 'semi-formal' (セットアップ私服); (streetwear) could also be an option?
pavolia_reine_(6th_costume) - (workoutwear)? (streetwear)? something's gotta fit for this
kobo_kanaeru_(4th_costume) - (casual) would probably make sense for this
roboco-san_(13th_costume) - okay, so, what's up with this dress??
akai_haato_(6th_costume) - same with this one, what's the vibe with it??
nakiri_ayame_(10th_costume) - finally, an easy one, post #10792269 calls it her 「和風メイド衣装」, "Japanese-style maid costume"; so far, the base appearance of Maid costumes so far has been Western-style maids, so one could justifiably suggest (wa_maid) as a qualifier, especially as we have Murasaki Shion (Qi Idol) as a similar counterpart
uruha_rushia_(3rd_costume) - what even is this vibe? do we want to use some combination of either (girly*) or (dark*) here?
himemori_luna_(6th_costume) - this feels parallel to Tsukino Mito (Taishou Roman), but I have no idea what we'd call it specifically
shishiro_botan_(7th_costume) - this has something of a formal military vibe to it? do we just go with (military) or something? (formal) would also be an option if we renamed Natsuiro Matsuri (Street Casual) to (semi-formal)
la+_darknesss_(5th_costume) - what do you even call this?
pavolia_reine_(5th_costume) - is she a supervillain?
vestia_zeta_(5th_costume) - I don't want to go with simply (dress) because it's clearly going for something more than that
kobo_kanaeru_(5th_costume) - same with this, they need better descriptors, (formal) might not even fit here
hakui_koyori_(6th_costume) - is (china_dress) fine here, or do we need something else?
ouro_kronii_(4th_costume) - the commentary for post #7573875 calls it a cross between a military uniform and a police uniform, so clearly both are out of the question; do we just go with (suit)? (formal) is also an option per above
aki_rosenthal_(7th_costume) - the tweet showing off the design calls it her 「ダイナー&バドガール衣装」, or "Diner & Bud Girl costume", it's a combination costume where one design is a diner waitress, while another is a Budweiser Girl-inspired; if both of these are waitress styles, we could just go with (waitress), but if they're not, then we'd need some sort of better descriptor, though (diner) could work since the Bud Girl costume has a badge advertising the diner
nakiri_ayame_(9th_costume) - (military)?
tokoyami_towa_(7th_costume) - what is with these vague-looking clothing styles...
airani_iofifteen_(8th_costume) - is she specifically a (doctor) here?
kaela_kovalskia_(5th_costume) - would (fantasy) work here, or?
hoshimachi_suisei_(11th_costume) - still have no idea what this might be, again, is this (streetwear)?
nakiri_ayame_(8th_costume) - it's clearly Japanese-inspired, but what's the ultimate vibe we're going with here? is there a better descriptor we could go with here other than calling it an anniversary outfit?
houshou_marine_(11th_costume) - we might just have to call this (birthday_2025) like Sora's two birthday costumes, because I don't think we have a chance in hell in creating a descriptive good enough to describe both looks of this costume

BUR #60895 has been approved by @evazion.

create alias shirakami_fubuki_(11th_costume) -> shirakami_fubuki_(fubumio)
create alias shirakami_fubuki_(school_uniform) -> shirakami_fubuki_(fubumio)
create alias ookami_mio_(10th_costume) -> ookami_mio_(fubumio)
create alias ookami_mio_(school_uniform) -> ookami_mio_(fubumio)

Separating out I feel comfortable BURing in a few BURs for ease of voting: first, going with FubuMio for the matching costumes with school uniform utility aliases.
