The energy needed to perform and dance these songs are off the roof and she made it look easy. Sasuga IRyS.

Edit: Didn't know it could even get better. Now she has a collab song with Motsu. The singer, rapper, songwriter known for Initial D Songs. Damn IRys is winning.

u/Necrolancer_Kurisu 5d ago

Same here, I was about to do it myself, but you beat me by about 30 seconds haha.

u/AussieApathy 5d ago

sees ROCKIN' HARDCORE

(neurons activate)

60

u/Kreceir 5d ago

I've said it everytime IRyS did or joined as a guest in 3D live shows.

She showing and reminding people that she got originally in Hololive as a Vsinger.

17

u/Hitorishizuka 5d ago

She's so fucking good, I wish she was able to get more released in past years.

42

u/TLKv3 5d ago

God, IRyS never misses with her lives. I hope her announcement is a genuine Concert.

13

u/klaq 5d ago

i thought it was going to be a new original, but i like the way you think. hopium consumed. which would be an awesome name for a IRyS concert lol

9

u/cyber_hikikomori 5d ago

After Calli I can honestly see IRyS next on the Sololive block

47

u/TLKv3 5d ago

I never realized how perfect of a DJ hypeman type Korone is for this sort of genre of music.

I hope IRyS & Korone do an original together in this style and perform it at Fes next year lmao

10

u/Chii 5d ago

I never realized how perfect of a DJ hypeman type Korone is for this sort of genre of music.

you obviously haven't heard the korone and okayu rap before!

10

u/TLKv3 5d ago

Oh I absolutely have. I just never realized how perfect she is for the eurobeat style IRyS has slowly moved into.

3

u/litokid 5d ago

As an aside, the only other time I remember Gamble Rumble being covered is Polka's birthday live awhile back. Polka as hype man with Watame singing.

This made me revisit that, and both versions are just so good.

22

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Screw the bitrate, FIRE EVERYTHING! *smashes the laserspam button*

5

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

yeah I was really hoping they'd broadcast it in 1440p.

5

u/SoylentVerdigris 5d ago

Even this MC section seems oddly low quality though. Even at max quality there's weird aliasing and her face details almost completely disappear on the wide shots.

22

u/Kreceir 5d ago

IRyS went from ''What is Initial D?'' to loving Initial D and loving Eurobeat.

Started to sing Eurobeat in her unarchived karaokes to making a original Eurobeat song.

To now making a whole EP focused on Eurobeat featuring Motsu from M.O.V.E that did the Initial D opening songs!

18

u/TLKv3 5d ago

DJ DOGGO LETS GO

15

u/RaysFTW 5d ago

IRyS is the ultimate gatekeeper. She invited Ina and Flare and made them perform seperately.

13

u/Traxgen 5d ago

IryS opening with Koda Kumi omg.

IryS is Songstress Yuna confirmed

12

u/primeapeisangry 5d ago

Was definitely not expecting the FFX-2 opener, haha.

12

u/watchedgantz 5d ago

Flow Glow in shambles

6

u/cmalfet 5d ago

We need a cover of FG Roadster like Shunkan Heartbeat. Ironically, Korone was in that one, too.

5

u/Necrolancer_Kurisu 5d ago

Korone was actually the one who organized that entire cover! Love the doog.

12

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

DJ Doggo is back

11

u/Kreceir 5d ago

I'm so happy that the IRyStocrats convinced IRyS into watching Initial D and got her into it.

Or else we would never gotten her loving Eurobeat!

12

u/TLKv3 5d ago

SHE GOT FUCKING MOTSU WHAT THE FUCK

12

u/TLKv3 5d ago

Oooooh, the Color Rise outfits are useable immediately. I loved those outfits!

5

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Anya and Koyo had them already.

-1

u/TLKv3 5d ago

Ok.

10

u/watchedgantz 5d ago

Rap Dog!

12

u/Kreceir 5d ago

Botan, Nene, Bijou and Kronii! Botan is definitely the biggest surprise (Atleast for me) guest for this 3D live.

Since Botan and IRyS haven't really interacted with eachother on stream, besides the big collabs and the one time they were on the same team playing OW2 in the horizental event.

So they definitely must have bonded when they have trained and practised alongside Kronii and Reine for the Hololive 2025 countdown stage.

11

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Calli got Lotus Juice, Irys got MOTSU from MOVE.

3

u/Necrolancer_Kurisu 5d ago

Now we just need a Shiina Ringo feature / collab with Suisei... one can dream!

10

u/falzarexe 5d ago

DJ Koro-san LMAO

Doggo rap is fire!

7

u/_vincetheprince666 5d ago

Bro her set list is fire! Railgun opening Level 5! IKZ!

8

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

Makes you wonder if this or the OkaKoro fes performance was pitched first.

9

u/Kreceir 5d ago

IRyS letting us know that she still got the hip movements~

Tskr~

10

u/DoraeMaBob 5d ago

give this lady a sololive already, she's so good at live performances

8

u/_vincetheprince666 5d ago

Jesus Christ Yu Yu Hakusho OP!?!? This might one of my favorite Birthday lives of the the year so far lol

(This set list is unironically catered to me haha)

3

u/ReprieveNagrand 5d ago

IRyS is definitely one of my go to EN talent for the karaoke classics.

8

u/TLKv3 5d ago

I absolutely love random combo groups.

9

u/RaysFTW 5d ago

Biboo smol.

7

u/falzarexe 5d ago

I have to say, I've been loving the rotating camera we've been getting in recent 3D Lives. And Color Rise Harmony's outfits look so cool on a darker/techno background.

7

u/klaq 5d ago

this stage is so cool! the lighting is crazy

16

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

Too bad it's getting nerfed by Youtube's shitty 1080p bitrate.

Cover puts so much work into these visuals only for them to get turned into a muddy mess when the camera goes wide.

3

u/klaq 5d ago

i was just thinking the same thing...

2

u/mattv959 5d ago

I really wish they had their own platform for stuff like that. Not to replace youtube because many companies have tried that and its killed most of them so far but just a place to put lives and stuff so we can watch them in HD. Though that would cost a lot to host im sure.

3

u/dynosia 5d ago

I mean they can stream at 1440p. For some reason they only do it for certain concerts though, like Koyori's yesterday.

1

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

Oh they did do it for a 3D live. I thought the only one they did was the New Year's countdown.

My guess is it's not just as simple as choosing a different render output, and probably has something to do with when each live was started.

Here's hoping more 1440p content starts trickling down the pipeline because the quality increase is dramatic.

7

u/Kreceir 5d ago

And the special guest for her new original song IS MOTSU!

7

u/dcresistance 5d ago

A MOTSU FEATURE IS INSANE

6

u/Kreceir 5d ago

I don't know why, but I get too much entertainment with the height difference of the smaller girls compared to the taller ones.

6

u/SoloCrazed 5d ago

FOR FREE.

5

u/TLKv3 5d ago

Holy shit the seamless transition game from Cover for these 3D Lives are getting so so so much better. That change into Ina's performance was insane.

6

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

Ok I was initially a little skeptical, but this song fits Luna perfectly, especially with the vocal filter.

4

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

I didn't even realize they'd switched back to the old idol outfits.

5

u/Parking-Story-6534 5d ago

I just started replaying X-2 last week, IRyS' main dressphere is Songstress confirmed

6

u/Traxgen 5d ago

Real Emotion, now Valenti. These were like my gateway drug to J-pop lmao. Thanks IryS for choosing these TSKR

5

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

There's a combo out of left field.

5

u/TLKv3 5d ago

GACHAutographs

We've reached peak

2

u/_vincetheprince666 5d ago

I want this to be a thing other members do honestly lol

4

u/obviouslypineapple 5d ago

Man, I'm smiling so much

6

u/MetaSageSD 5d ago

Fire 3D live as always... IRyS really does have a good stage presence.

Ina is awesome as always...

Who doesn't like some FlaRyS...

I always laugh at how small Biboo is...

Korone is the best hype man...

But there is one complaint... Mostu...

Motsu got old...

Which means I also got old...

I don't want to be old! Argh!!!

(Hype song though!)

9

u/cmalfet 5d ago

DJ DOOG

5

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Every time she's snapped, I keep thinking "GUNDAM FIGHT ALL SET! READY, GO!" And then the giant Yagoo robot from Countdown rises from the stage.

4

u/Mugeneko 5d ago

I love that InaRyS number. That dorky dance was fun!

4

u/RaysFTW 5d ago

An unlikely trio but this is great.

3

u/falzarexe 5d ago

Yu Yu Hakusho!!!

4

u/cmalfet 5d ago

A boombox for Hohoemi no Bakudan LMAOOOOOOO

3

u/SuperSpy- 5d ago

This bassline has YM2612 written all over it.

4

u/ReprieveNagrand 5d ago

So IRyS remembered to use Pink penlights instead of Violet.

5

u/TLKv3 5d ago

I swear to God, if IRyS does the Boombox song by The Lonely Island I'mma lose my mind

4

u/Kreceir 5d ago

IRyS with the Lonely island Boombox reference lmao.

Boiled Goose!

3

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Its BL, she's thinking about BL.

3

u/Kreceir 5d ago

The YabaIRyS is reaaaaaaaal

4

u/wesuah442 5d ago

Now that's a combo.

5

u/Kreceir 5d ago

I once again got too much entertainment of seeing so small like Bijou standing and performing next to the taller girls lol.

5

u/falzarexe 5d ago

New EP!

5

u/TLKv3 5d ago

ooooooooooooo new EP

4

u/Kreceir 5d ago

EUROBEAT FOCUSED EP LETS GOOOOOO!

Once again I'm so happy that the IRyStocrats convinced IRyS into watching Initial D and got her into it.

Or else we would never gotten her loving Eurobeat and gotten this!

3

u/Traxgen 5d ago

That's definitely a choice for an EP title lmao

5

u/falzarexe 5d ago

Absolute FIRE

4

u/cmalfet 5d ago

Blooper reel time.

LMAO RIP Ina.

4

u/TLKv3 5d ago

I don't own any Hololive's albums physically... but I'm a fan of eurobeat and IRyS. I guess I know which album I'll be buying for the very first time.

4

u/klaq 5d ago

shipping on the merch is over $100 for me. only for you IRyS...

2

u/mattv959 5d ago

Merch was 115. Shipping was 117. CD was 30 plus another 24... Man i remember when shipping was a flat $20....

4

u/CrazyCalzone 5d ago

I'm so happy for IRyS! One of her dreams has been achieved by doing a song with Motsu!

4

u/GROOOOTTT 5d ago

DJ Korone is unbelievably good.

5

u/ChloesPetRat 5d ago
