So ends the Startend Apex journey... For someone who doesn't play and doesn't watch Apex, I did not expect myself to become so invested in this, but the interaction of Suisei, Towa and Aqua together feels just that special somehow. The slight hints of Sui-chan's emotions at the end hit like a truck...
I definitely need some emotional recovery time, (and also some time to clip Ui-mama's latest horror game stream), but there are a couple of Startend clips from Custom Scrim Days 1, 4 and 6 that are done but in need of QA that probably will continue to come out over the next couple of days. There are still many Aqua-Towa-Sui moments from Days 4, 6, and Match Day itself that I haven't touched or started on yet and it will be a while before they can be done so I wonder if people would still want to see them many days after the event is already over...
Otsukaresama desu...
I'm looking forward to all of it.
Thank you for the clip!
Keep up the great work! 👍✨
Love your clips, take your recovery time it was really emotionally exhausting lol thank you for working so hard Ill look forward to your new stuff Startend and others👍
I would love more clips, so just take your time giving them out, I dont really care how old they were.
To me, it doesn’t matter if the clips are 2 days, 2 weeks, or even 2 months after the event, clips are clips and your clips are especially good, so thank you for all the work you’ve put in
Suisei is so competitive. I really admire how much Suisei puts 100% of her effort into everything she does. I hope to see more Apex from Suisei in the future.
I feel that Suisei has always been a very emotional person. However, she takes it upon herself to make sure everyone enjoys themselves, both the talents and the viewers. Even back during Coco's graduation, she only cried in the Karaoke stream after the graduation. I think the only time she truly broke down was when she felt she disappointed everyone by not releasing a new original during her time in INNK.
She's emotional inside, but it's rare to her letting it out
They tried their best. Towa's been a great leader and since she has experience in several tourneys previously she knows how it feels, Aqua's desire and how she finally able to play in a team is also a great thing! Also Suisei quick improvement on Apex within the short period is also amazing, she's also the mood booster for the team. Its okay to let the feelings out in the end ^^ they are a cool team with a great chemistry
Can somebody explain the way of ranking, does their past achievements from the past few days doesn't count?
@@toxicwaste7087 the previous days were training. This was match day and the only matches that "matter".
They get points based on position and kills, so final ranking has to be calculated post-game.
The previous days have been important in feeling out the other teams and planning out routes and composition, but placements have no impact on the tournament rankings.
@@dottn I see, thank you
@@toxicwaste7087 basically scrim is like a training before the actual match to be able to learn about your opponent team movement and develop a strategy XD
Yeah Suisei was such a mood booster. Which was why it hurt to watch her mood plummet in the middle of the tourney. I was in her chat that day and people were trying to cheer her up. She was so quiet. Sad Suisei = sad day.
Towa really is a good leader. She lead the conversation when the other two are down at the end of the tournament. Suisei mute the mic so fans can't hear her crying and aqutan also didn't say much either at the end. But I think the three of them playing is really entertaining.
omg Suisei crying hurts so much I was in physical pain, she so often gives others energy when they are sad its nice seeing towa and aqua be there giving energy and wise words, They did great it wasn't a easy tournament a lot of good players and they grew closer as friends and had lots of fun thats what matters☄⚓👾
Whenever she plays a game, especially for a long period of time, she's the type to put in 120% into everything she does.
When she lost in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, she cried.
When she won in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, she cried.
☄ ⚓ 😇 ***
Seeing Sui-chan trying to laugh to brighten the mood as usual even while crying hurts so bad.
man I want to hug them and say you really did a great job...
I can tell suichan muted to not let us her hear his emotional state...
it was a fun to watch btw even I dont play apex...
The one who laugh the most cried the hardest! I feel Suisei has been a very strong mental support for the team, always laughing and cheering Aqua and Towa up with her jokes. I am glad this collab happened! Thank you!
Usually it was Suisei that cheering her teammates. It really nice to see she received the same emotional support as well.
Damn...I feel like I just saw the last episode of an anime arc with esports girls trying to make it to the top.
They might have lost the tournament, but their bonds as friends won out in the end.
There's always next time, so I'll be rooting for them whenever Startend decides to make a comeback!
The cover song they put out is the ED song for this anime arc
I need a season 2
Goddammit i need season 2..
Ps: don't worry i know im having too much asacoco.
Man they really did a great job. Adapting to a competitive Environment when you already have so much thing to do is definitely hard, especially when you are a rookie with a lot of expectation from millions of fans. I cant imagine the presssure they got a night before the actual match. I hope they continue making content as a startend
Usually its Aqua that ends up crying in these sorts of events; Aqua even teamed up! It must have been a really hard road for her, but she managed it all the way to the end and even supported a frustrated Suisei. Aqua's really grown and I'm happy to see it.
true! she also have a 'bad luck' in events like these(flashback to MC Sports Fest 2020 and 2021 Mario Kart tourney). I think she learned that even though she puts in the hours and worked hard, the outcome wont always be what you expect. Also, she's in a tight team this time and from my perspective on Aqua's personality, I think she wanted to be emotionally strong so that she can support her teammates when they dont win.
well Aqua did cry at the end, but only after she left the VC, so yeah she really wanted to be strong for her team then and there
@Red Eagle yikes
@Red Eagle Gomi
@Red Eagle you are Gomi
All of them tried their best but the competition was just too fierce. It's too bad that they couldn't place as well as they wanted to but like Towa said, they really are all amazing! It must've been as fun for them as it was for us, if not more so! This will truly be something to remember. I'm glad we were able to follow StartEnd through their Apex journey and witness all of the great moments and AquaSuiTowa TeeTee! I look forward to more of these three together!!
i never understood how people could feel emotional seeing their favourite youtuber or whatever crying or emotional on camera.
but now i understand that a lot. suisei has really been one big factor in my mental health getting better(along with other things, im not parasocial for suisei or anything) and seeing how frustrated suisei seems made me frustrated as well.
damn, this is a new feeling i never thought i would ever feel.
These 3 deserve lots of fun and rest after their hardwork, go out together and eat together and just have fun without worries.
It was a good memory for the three of them. Although they didn't win, they win our hearts with the amount of hard work they put in on the scrims and official tournament and some bonus teetee moments from our love triangle combo www ! Looking forward for more startend interactions in the future 👍
Suichan really throws in her soul into things she really wants to do. I can't even imagine having that much of hunger and burning passion for so long after so many hardships. Truly Stellar.
Suisei sure have a pretty strong competitive spirit when it comes to tournaments. Or basically when she's being very serious, like on this year's Mario Kart tournament.
And I just realized that this team have the three formidable Mario Kart players on Hololive.
Funnily enough suisei is less serious/focused on the 2021's mario kart tourney compared to the 2020's. She caught up to aqua in less than 2 months in 2020 and actually beat her after declaring that she'll defeat hololive's greatest mario kart player at that time. It was truly amazing
there's always a first time to everything and it's important to experience it. so that you'll appreciate your time doing whatever it is you're doing.
Am I the only one who felt that at the end Towa also wanted to cry by seeing her raise her voice and speed up the conversation? :'(
Goddammit man , i'm not crying ! It- just... Water that comes out from my eyes !
Suichan will be stronger after this tears... :"")
i also hope they also realize the experience and skill gap they had to fight through this tournament, them being able to stand up and fight is already impressive considering the lobby has people who play apex for hours + high diamond rank. proud of them ♥
It is not difficult to catch that Suisei was having hard time yesterday. She was in clutch and last man standing position several times where she had to wipe enemy teams and revived teammates. Very difficult.
She also undoubtedly put very hard work to keep up with Aqua and Towa, as noted by Hal, casters, Matsuri, and Astel.
While she is the mood maker of the team, it is expected that she will become overwhelmed in the end.
I will forever love and support this comet. She defied another expectation. What an inspiration.
They may have lost a great battle, but at least they still fought a great fight and they all did their greatest and gained something more than winning, all the memorable moments they had together be it funny or emotional, all the fun they had together, and a song that we have all witnessed throughout their whole journey as Startend. Thank you Startend for all your hardwork. Till we see you three each other once again soon! I hope Sui-chan doesn't beat herself too much, the pain felt through her voice is almost quite concerning and also saddening but regardless, I'm proud of them for what everything they have done to get this far.
actually not just a song but a cover rather.
I personally started to play apex because of aqua diamond challenge stream.. when she hit master it was an amazing feeling.. and when she said she is entering the tournament, i was so excited and the team was well balance.. ofc there is a skill difference but suisei grew so much.. she can get diamond i believe.. And towa who never interact with aqua before has become such a good leader and friend for her.. this is a good memories for us fans too.. I hope they will continue to work together..
Its sad that they said this is their first and last tournament just like their team name "StartEnd", I do want to see they play again, but I also want to respect their choice.
Anyway, its fun to be there and enjoy their amazing journey together, Thank You StartEnd
They did their best and I love them so much. Even though it looked like an L but I think it was a pretty big win and I wanna tell them they did amazing on their first tournament. And if you really looked at it, they now have tournament experience, aqua have experience on being on a team, towa now have experience being IGL and sui-chan actually promoted to plat, she bought gaming mouse and now have these apex experience. Also it was funny that towa got 16th place double at these tournament and they got an extra beef pc now(I don't know they got pc for 3 or just 1).
#startend I love it ❤
all 3 of them will get PC
Also, be aware is just the pc. No monitor, keyboard or mouse
They still got a goddamn good pc as a reward.
Suisei muted her mic after their opening statements lol....heartwarming
I feel bad for these three, like for real. They did a great job. Props to them. I know how hard they practice, making time to join the scrims everyday despite their tight schedules. Then again this is Aqua and Suisei's first tourney, the pressure might get onto them, understandable. Suisei is really new to this so it is completely understandable. Towa, she's experienced but there is only so many things that she can do as a support player. Also, despite Aqua being a master, she's a solo master, she's not used to play in a team environment, if you watched the scrims, she's often just picking off some people by herself which resulted in high kill counts for herself. This kind of tourney favors team with great chemistry rather than a team with one person with high level individual skill.
The next part of my comment is basically me being an asshole. If you only want to read the good part, then dont read it. I just want to say it after bearing this for so long. Gotta say sorry first because I might sound like an asshole here, maybe I am.

I am an asshole for this, but here we go. I also lowkey happy that they didnt end up getting high placement. Why? Simple. Aqua's fans. Aqua is extremely good, I know. But man, can yall chill? Like literally there are so many better players out there, and it's shown by the result. I often see some Aqua's fans in the kirinukis (both EN and JP) somehow downplayed some other Masters' ability and even overhyped her because she's a Solomas while those other Masters are playing in a team to get to Master. Then again, those things are not good to be considered as a gauge for their skills in a teamwork-heavy tournament like this. Imo, it gave Aqua too much pressure instead.
Also, the last thing, I will say this as a fan of certain graduated Master Vtuber (which is also Towa's close friend, if you know you know), I like Aqua but you all --that most likely do not play Apex, yet still overhyped her and downplayed other vtubers' skills-- are annoying lol.
ngl some people even call me my statement is not making sense when i said like even if they win on scrim doesn't mean they win on tournament. anything can happen. there also that agree and call me only watch clip and yes i did watch clip but at the same time that clip also show their standing, kill, damage and also their playstyle. the comment i take also not one person, its everywhere to make it like i believe in it. for example like vgorilla, people said aqua can kill vgorilla but i heard on comment like vgorilla not serious on scrim but serious on tournament, see what happen like now. it might applied to team that not always got high standing aswell. they might try to think what if they in this situation or stuff or trying to learn how opponent aswell.
just to make sure startend only starting on this tournament, if they win, then thats really luck. since some comment said that kuzuha team eventhough he join many previous tournament, he didn't win. this time they win. all of people that join also put everything to it, not just all involve around startend. i know for the fact that aqua solo yes, they forgot that there also other solo player way before Aqua. after seeing like kuzuha team being scold by their coach like not to play around and do this and that, they also had to play after scrim offline.
all of them try their best, i wasn't expect like siro place that stuff real fast. it really like wow and unexpected.
With the amount of Aqua "DOMINATING", "INSANE MECHANICS", "CLEAN THE LOBBY" clips, it's kinda overhype how goof Startend is as a team and I bet most of those clips's audiences don't even know about Apex or the JP Vtuber Apex community. So they endlessly downplayed other participant and hype Aqua up to cloud 9 to only saw the harsh truth that Startend is not that good compare to Kuzuha, Noah, Pakael's team
Hoshimachi Suisei is one of that hard to show emotional type of person (Like of Botan or Sora-sama). Seeing this bring me back in time, the time where she still a diamond in rough (Suisei as indie V-tuber). She often hide her emotion behind that radiant energetic personality of her. But there will be some moment that her energy gone down and she will show that emotional side of her, the thing is Suisei's career path is one of the thing I and maybe a lot of fan observe for a long time she has a lot of hard time and even on a verge of quitting. Still she never give in to that, her light maybe sometime get dimmer but she will shine back in no time and shine brighter than ever before. In conclusion Hoshimachi Suisei is indeed an inspiration person she do whatever she dream of even it sometime put her down but the kind of spirit only few can have the strength to take a hit, gone down, and rise back again and I for once enjoy a lot of her moment I hope we will se more of this unusual group call StarEnd to do something again in the future.
thank you so much for translating so much of startend's journey!
This entire event has been an absolute wave of complex emotions. No doubt that StartEnd has left an impression on everyone that has has come into contact with them, via stream, clips, or in-game. All the best for them to be a stand out unit in what ever event or project they will set their sights on.
I remember watching this live. They were talking normally and when Aqua asked if they should close the stream they started reflecting on the tournament and suddenly the atmosphere changed. All 3 went super quiet, Sui-chan was constantly holding back her tears and Aqua constantly responded with "hmm" in a very calm and thoughtful way. And when someone said something there was often a long silence afterwards (which is not present in this clip because it was cut out). I think this is what makes Vtubing very special. There is often lot's of fun and action but sometimes there are also moments like these where everyone suddenly become very quiet and emotional. Because behind their character they are still human after all
I returned to this clip after a while and man, Suisei's sobs really tear at my heartstrings.
On a more light hearted note, seeing Aqua talk more than Suisei is really wild.
I love Startend, therefore I wish for them happiness in the near future.
That's why, don't give up, StartEnd.
Thank you Yura for translating such an important event!
Damn they experiencing youth out here, this is like that episode of Haiyuuu where they lost and cried their hearts out while eating 🥲
TowaSui friendship is really mutually strong. whenever Towa is down Sui-chan is there for her. And its vice versa.
i hope trio continue to play together. not only in apex but also in other collab thingy
StartEnd journey is really long yet short at the same time. I really love the Apex Streams last week full of funny stuff and chaos too. We all know that Aqua would be one of the killing machines on this tournament and also she said that she hates wingman because she can't aim on it but she literally pop off on the scrims with wingman causing their team won 2 times in a row on scrims, her wingman is just insane. On Towa, she played couple of tournaments now and her IGL really improves a lot and one of the surprising moments of her shot call was her telling Aqua not to go down on the final ring that call really shocked everybody and its really amazing also her 1v3 dome fight under the house is so insane ngl. Then lastly Suisei, her improvements is a monster while she's playing with her team her improvements are so fast in just couple of weeks and also her Rampage is really good. Overall they are really great and they really improves a lot even though they lost on the tournament they did they're very best to win and didn't hesitate.
Thank you STARTEND for that wonderful journey. Looking forward for those collabs on the future !!
Correction, they only won 1 time in scrims. The other champions they got are from either Kuzuha's custom or Matsuri's custom where almost half of the lobby were filled with viewers
I admire towa's effort, but it's impossible to cheer up two people who are as driven as suisei and aqua who need to always win/be first
*implying Towa is not the one who's actually tryharding, and actually believing they could win to begin with*
I would say it's more to do that towa isn't their senpai. It is the other way around usually (where sui would be cheering up aqua and towa). But when a senpai is frustrated after the final result, there aren't really any words you can provide as a kouhai but stand by them for support.
I understand towa is probably more tourney experience, but she even said it was hard for her to approach sui b/c of the amount of respect she has for her.
@@dho5411 ah, true. Also both of them might be on their first and last apex tournament appearance anyway, so there's not much support you can give other than just cheer them up and just trying to brush off the frustrations.
Hearing Sui-chan sobbing does hit like a truck. She is a really strong person that has endured many of the saddest hololive Moments we had had recently, so hearing her have such emotions makes it impossible not to feel anxious and sad. But they did their Best, and found companionship like no other. It's not everyday that holomembers that don't usually are together form such a great allyship. They may be colleagues, but also Friends, and the gals we support. Hope we can see them grow even more in the future.
This competitive side of Suisei is probably why she's so addicted to gacha. Will not accept not getting those new characters.
Of course everyone was hoping for a better finish but as someone who watches all these other teams often, Its the same feelings for them. The competition this season was incredibly strong, a lot of people agreed it was the best so far. Startend did amazing for their first time, the scrims proved they could win too. I hope this won't be the last time Aqua will participate in Tournaments and I hope Startend can continue to collab together as friends!
While sure, its a bummer that they didnt end up placing nearly as well as they wouldve liked to in the actual tourney, I still hope that they all feel proud of themselves since I think the days of scrims beforehand have more than proved the worth of this team as a top level threat.
Its just a bit unfortunate since the amount of pressure on this team REALLY was pretty high with both Suisei+Aqua never having competed in a tourney before in addition to the knowledge that this will almost certainly be their first and last chance.
Not even to mention that just how well they were doing in scrims may have actually made the pressure worse since it set such high expectations for them to live up to.
These past weeks have been so fun. Being able to watch streams and clips of them going crazy in game or telling fun stories. Having it all done so fast hit me hard. I’m gonna miss these streams a lot. Ik they’re gonna collab again but it’s not gonna be like this where it’s been almost everyday for the past 3 weeks. I really do hope to see them in the grind they were in again. Thank you Startend and thank you to the clip channels for posting amazing content.
#STARTEND are real winners. Love those three.
TBH the outcome should be already expected.
Like its pretty crazy if they mange to win this tournament in their first try knowing that one is a play safe player, another is a mad dog solo player and a newbie. Even though they practice a lot, a players mindset will always change in their first tournament due to the difference of the atmosphere and I think it is pretty common.
A person usually cannot bring their full potential in their first try on tournaments.
The fact that they did well in scrims already shows that they are worthy enough to be a threat in the future that we might never see.
towa probably had a mental breakdown before the official match (there's a video of it) and suisei just played bad. honestly i think they we're the one of the top teams in the scrim days.. just played bad for the official match
It sucks but we just need to accept it. They did their best and they had fun. Let's just continue supporting them whether as a group or as individuals or in Apex or outside of Apex so they wont feel as defeated. Who knows maybe one day they'll have the opportunity again in the future to compete (but please don't bug them in streams or twttr, convincing them to join).
They won't have a chance to join this tournament series togethor again, they only managed to sneak in suisei this time because suisei had barely any playtime. Either they have to join a much more difficult tournament next time or they have to drop suisei or towa for a lower apex ranked player to make the threshold to rejoin this one.
Somehow i feel something is stuck in my heart, i feel sorry for those girl somehow, but feeling fruatated on losing is normal and i hope this doesn't make them get away from apex and make this a good experience. Maybe they will continue with this unit not in apex, but maybe collab on birthday concert or cover together, it is going to be good
thanks for the translating this, i needed this catharsis after all that lmao. i really respect the emotional maturity all of them showed after that, it's not easy to lose like that in front of an audience and accept it/move on with that much grace- see you next time STARTEND
This Startend saga was just as emotional as the KanaChiiKuzu before in Nijisanji. They may not won the tournament, but they definitely won the hearts of people, or atleast for myself.
Thanks for the clip, even though this is the end of Startend (for now!), I've really enjoyed seeing the growth each of them had and that they have now become closer to one another more than ever. Honestly I think this team learnt a lot from this experience and even though they wouldn't be doing another Apex tournament, I'll be waiting for their future Startend collab. GG!
I think it speaks volumes of Suisei’s drive that she feels the most frustrated. Because even though everybody knew she was a rookie and didn’t expect much from her if anything at all, precisely because of that she seemed to nevertheless hold herself to a high standard because she didn’t want to be seen as dead weight.
Towa has experience under her belt, Everybody knew how good Aqua was despite not having customs experience but Suisei really gave it her all to not only carry her own weight but to really go above and beyond for her teammates.
And so while her improvement in the game in the span of just two months is amazing, i think the real impressive part about her was her mental game, despite being the one in the end to let her emotions out. Not only for herself but not to mention the fact that she constantly acted as the morale glue throughout this entire arc that kept the team together with her high energy and liveliness when the other two were feeling down about themselves and their results, constantly cracking jokes and making random discussion to take their mind off negative thoughts.
All of them are amazing and worked so hard, but I personally think Suisei is the real MVP of the entire tournament. Even Astel recognized that her growth among everyone was the greatest.
"You got to lose to know how to win".
Well, losing is always a shame and the feeling of regret will always there. But that feeling is what often drive people forward.
Thank you for the clip.
It's quite an emotional end to the tournament for them, but I'm glad they were able to make a lot of fond memories together.
While it is indeed frustrating that they couldn't secure a win, they really gave it their all out there.
Thanks for all the hard work with capturing these moments, and looking forward to more clips.
^w^)
They might not have won, but the days prior to the tournament were pretty much the highlight for this tourney. I'm more sad that the daily startend streams are over.
Aqua has grown so much, and I'm so happy to see it, despite being a bit disappointed with the outcome here. It was impressive how much Suisei improved in such a short time, and I really hope to see the three of them doing more of this kind of thing in the future
the feeling is similar to watching the last episode of a very good anime after watching it you just can't get over the truth that its over there is no season 2 😢
Seeing Suisei so emotional hits hard but Towa and Aqua support show how much closer become the 3 . STARTEND thanks for all the fun hope we can see the 3 together again
I hope this isn't the last time we see StartEnd. I want their merch too. Best team please stay strong!
This tournament was an experience. Like aqua said feels like a really long time passed and at the same time it felt too short, i hope startend do more collabs in the future like this and have a lot of fun again
you guys did your best. Win or lose, it doesnt matter. What matters most is that you guys had fun playing together. Good job StartEnd, We love you!
I really hope they play together again. Their growth really impressed me. They can get stronger.
The bbq after a lost fight.. reminds me of haikyuu when they were crying while eating. What doesn't kill you can only make you stronger. Otsu STA.
TMT's voice at the end feels like she was about to cry too... You did great Startend!!!! Good Game Well Played!!!
"I don't like to lose -- at anything -- yet I've grown most not from victories, but setbacks. If winning is God's reward, then losing is how he teaches us." - Serena Williams
They may not have won the tournament, or even came close, but the experience they've shared together is much more important. It was an incredible journey and they stepped up well against some intense competition. Their efforts here will forever be remembered and we'll follow along should they decide to join together again for another game.
I have seen some people on other videos saying "Well atleast they got a pc!!" Wich is good, but for competitive people like Aqua and suisei, not being top placement or even winning is super frustrating, knowing you could have done better, knowing you could have trained and grinded a little bit more, A free Pc is good yeah, but sometimes the feeling is pretty hard on you, even more if its your first tournament, First tournaments are always scary no matter how good you are, but at the same time, it gives you a "reality" slap, and shows you wich things you can work on for the next one (if there is another one as Hal said this was the last APex tournament, probbably)
There's a reason they don't have a coach. They want this tournament to be a memory of them working and bonding together. And mission accomplished. They did their best during practice and scrim, everyone in the tournament knows how strong they are. They deserved that PC. Like Aqua said they did their best in the tournament it's no one fault. The other teams have a lot of experience. They're not like them who can practice and grind for 10 hours a day. I don't think dwelling on regret is good for them when they definitely not gonna enter another tournament. Might as well accept it (and the PC) and move on. Placement aside they did have fun together for the past few months that's important.
Oh, Hal said that? But maybe he only refers to Vsaikyo? Like there might be another tourneys hosted by others and whether its vtuber exclusive or some sort of content creators tourneys. Like what Akasaka Aka enter last year for example.
@@thejamesonthestreet He meant it may be Vsaikyo last time were they play Apex, seem like the enxt one may be valorant.
Nah Hal said he would like to host the next Vsaikyou in Apex too and he considers raising the point cap next time as many Master team captain had a hard time finding low pt members
From the moment Suisei join the tournament i knew this would happen at the end, but even if you know, it makes you tear up anyway :') But if there is something that Suichan is good at, is never giving up, now its the time for the training arc and the comeback at the next tourny, just like the Mario Kart history!!
My comet star deserves a big break
I wish I had to time to watch all of their scrims and matches but I only really have time for clips. Regardless of that, I was so invested in this team. Their synergy is so good and they all bring something unique to the table. I definitely want more Startend content.
Considering that everyone seemed to take this just as seriously as they did with all the training and prep, I think they did quite well given their team's overall experience. There's a lot of people that simply LIVE in Apex so you're just not going to be able to reach their level realistically when they've got so much experience over you plus are also training just as hard to try and keep their competitive edge.
Very impressed with how much Towa has grown as a leader. Taking the initiative in the discussion and support, this girl has really grown since her debut
I'm gonna miss these 3 being together so often.
I'm not into shooters at all, I've been a gamer all my life but I just don't click with them so I obviously didn't know anything about Apex at all outside of what my friends told me when they play.
But being able to watch Startend in my feed almost every day and watching their growth not only in gameplay but as a group was such a wholesome experience.
You can see the evolution in the first days when Towa-sama and Sui-chan's extroverted personalities overwhelmed Aqu-tan's introverted one but by playing together, talking about a lot of stuff, getting to meet more and just having fun we were able to see Aqu-tan out of her shell and being comfortable which is something I never thought could happen.
In the end even I, someone who isn't fond of FPS games at all was so into the matches and celebrating and screaming with them and all the fans together.
Their chemistry is off the charts and I really hope we get to see more of that.
It's so bittersweet to know that we're not gonna experience something like this anytime soon or maybe even at all and it sucks that they didn't win but in my opinion, after all these experiences and memories they already won even before the tournament.
And we also won by being able to see all of that.
What a ride this was... Startend forever!
Man. It was a roller coaster of emotions in the end. With Towa the leader. Aqua the ace. And the rising star herself Suisei. I’m sad they weren’t able to pull the dub, but I’m glad they had fun and were able to create great memories and deepen their friendship. That’s a first I’ve ever heard Suisei “cry” and damn. It kinda hurt. I hope they get to eat somewhere nice and enjoy their time. Love the three dearly and will continue to support them. 💙💜💙
I played this certain timestamp in the stream from 3 perspective. Suisei perspective as you see she holding back her tears in the after talk her voice was low pitched. Aqua was low spirited and almost lost her emotion deppressed also sad its all over. Towa is TMT she knows these 2 cant bring them self so she act strong to push them, but her voice was cracked in the end a sign of tears or sadness to be exact being held back.
suisei was always being the tough one to support her teammates since day 1 of startend. it taking its toll now. but i wonder why when i hear she sobs i just felt a chill down my spine. it happens again. her frustration in her school days when she lost in tetris and any puzzle games, when she lost the 1st marika tournament, those kind of frustration always gave birth to a monster. just look at her innk days, how much it pains her when her music projects got abandoned for nth times. and now she's one of the most successful singer in vtuber community. and apex now, huh? oh shid
How they responding, encourage each others, and overcome things after match are the best exp for us 2 as well. StartEnd already did really great hard work. Glad this team are exist. And thank you for this clip. Appreciate it very well.
when feeling down and defeated, i usually eat something new, a cuisine looks delicious but never tried. eating something new and delicious always bring my mind in different mood
I guess this really goes to show the difference between scrims and event tourneys. People play so much more carefully in main events that it’s hard for an edge team like Aqua to pick off kills. Fair game though!
The ring which kept going in west side made worse for teams that was from east of the map. You can see tha most teams on the east landmarks had played poorly like PHF, NUN, HMK, MSR, PPP, COG, STA, and LRR.
On the east side team only Reid, Gorilla and the BobsappATM team was able adapt to it.
@@coingame4780 yeah, Ring matters so much more in competitive tourneys like these. No one wants to lose so everyone will just hole up somewhere and only make a move when they need to. Kuzuha’s team was so consistent though, they constantly got good spots.
😭 #StartEnd forever. It was a great bonding experience and such good content!
I was never really interested in streams of games like Apex, but seeing Aqua doing her solo master challenge, and then seeing her teaming up with Towa and Suisei, I just couldn’t miss it. It was so satisfying to see Aqua defeat her opponents. Then to see them play as a team, act goofy at certain times, follow their discussions between each match, it made you want to support them even more. Seeing the other teams praise them too, it made us proud of them and of course, we wanted to see them go as far as possible.
But then again, the tournament was on a whole new level. Especially since, if I understood correctly, they participated with a size malus: the absence of coach. Nevertheless, they had their best moment during the tournament, that they grew out of it, that it was a real treat to follow them from the beginning to the end. They may not have been able to shine during this tournament but we don’t care, they shone for several weeks and if this tournament is their last, I’m sure it’s never that the beginning of the StartEnd adventure !
Thanks for your daily uploads. Sometimes I am aware of unexpected emotions when I watch Hololive. The iconic anime-look avatars make online communication easy and safe. It reinforces the entertainment nature of streaming, and we accept it as a kind of promise. Streamers also rely on that promise. The promise is that they are idols. There is no one behind the avatar. They can be intentionally missed in situations. holo-us mutually. It can be described as trust or a kind of complicity.
Because the content is protected by such promises, we are moved by their unexpected emotional highs and human moments. The anime-look is at once easy to understand and difficult to comprehend. It is optimized for a specific intention and does not always faithfully represent emotions. This quality makes the emotional moment more dynamic. That's where we can feel their narrative outside of the entertainment intent.
This overlaps with the narrative of idols, who are not pop stars, singers, or comedians, but rather human growth between identity and entertainment. The Goddess smiles on those whose promises are meaningless but not forgotten.

Metaphysical YAGOO
This is a learning experience for both Aqua and Suisei on how joining a tourney feels like. I hope in the future that they can come back again.
love you for translating these!!
It's moments like this that really remind you both that there are real feeling humans behind the avatars they use, and that there really isn't anything out there like this that let's us the audience participate and share in this experience with them.
I love watching these 3 together. Just because the tournament is over doesn't mean it's the end for Startend! I will continue to support them!
As a tangent, I left a group of friends I was in because they would make comments like "Oh why is X person playing this game lol", and in Suisei's Tetris stream earlier today she said she saw a lot of comments like that. "Why is Suisei playing FPS? She should just stick to singing since she's good at it", and she wanted to prove those comments wrong by playing in the tournament. I'm so glad Suisei was a part of this. They all had fun together, and they received so much love and support from the fans.
To all the people out there who think people should just stick to stuff they're good at, and to all the people who don't like it when their Vtubers should just stick to what they're good at - I don't care if that's what you think, but no one cares to see or know that. Let people do what they want. No one wants to hear you be an anti about it. The fact that Suisei showed this much emotion about the result is proof that she cared about this just as much as anyone else in the tournament. Not that she needed to prove it to anyone. I hope this opens your eyes a bit and that you continue to support all their activities.
I can understand how those three feel. Playing sports. Losing a tournement because we weren't good enough. Or we made mistakes we shouldn't had. Even worse, we know how to win, we did what needed to be done, and we still lost. We suffer together. We struggle together. Then we won together. Once that happens, it's something you always remember. That feeling of accomplishment after all that hard work finally paid off.
Ahhh my heart. Even though they didnt win its okay because to me, how they played in the tournament and customs was amazing. They each did their best and surprised me each time with their skills and communication.
man I never would've thought I would be so heavily invested into this team (I'm not too into apex)
it feels like watching a sports themed story, there will always be victories and heartbreaks everytime
hoping this isn't the last of this group, doesn't have to be apex (but that's just wishful thinking •́ ‿ ,•̀)
thank you Yura for the Startend clips, really appreciated 🙏
well sad that did not reached top 10 but they gameplay from practice till the actual tournament was one of pure teamwork and enjoyment of collaborating with one another
Gonna miss their skills, antics and jokes in APEX T.T
It's a bittersweet ending, but I can say I personally enjoyed watching their journey all they way through. I didn't follow Towa and Aqua as much before this, but this event showed a fun side that you can only have between close friends with good chemistry. I hope to see more of these 3 in the future.
The way Towa and Aqua tried to comfort Suisei's emotions while she's letting it out during the short silence before the whisper........ I'm not exaggerating about it but I'd cry real hard ngl. Imagine you gave your all in that one thing you wanted to win but ended up losing even after giving your all and all of your emotions starting to burst out then there's those words with more power than anything existing in this world........ I've been through that stage and i know how she feels. It's frustrating but the amount of experience she'll get from all of those scrims and tourney loses will prove how much she grew these past few days while preparing for V Saikyou.
admitting own defeat doesn't make u loser, is just make u even stronger! hope there 2nd chance or more chance for tourna in future not just THIS!! hope this possible.
the talk about a club is very good, in the end is realy something like that, maybe at school you work hard for months everyday at the same time and in the end you lose at the first/second round of a tournament. it's frustating but at the same time it was fun passing al the time trying to do your best
As a person who has a lot of competitive experience I can relate on how they feel, especially Suisei. Towa's leadership is amazing, Aqua's competitiveness is inspireable, and Suisei despite being a novice, she did a good job playing this game and give her all. Loosing is sure makes you frustrated but at the same time it gives you a sense of relief. But I think this is the reason why playing a real game is a good thing.
Although I don't play APEX I can sense the fondness that was form in these 3 build up as they practice and play tournaments. It really takes me back of what happened to my team, we put a lot of efforts to have a strong mentality. I believe what's fun about joining the competitive tournaments is that time you put together to get better, form a trust believe to those around you, and of course the sportsmanship. Loosing makes you frustrated and sad, but at the same time you gain something from it.
てぇてぇ! I look forward to their future plans together! StartEnd unit
At this point they didn't even know they won one hell of a PC.
Glad to be able to understand their closing remarks for the tournament. It was little confusing with Suisei's crying since I wasn't sure the meaning behind the tears, but glad they all had fun and wanna do other Startend collabs in the future.
While its dissapointing that its over, im not one bit disappointed at where they placed. They all tried their best and their streams leading up to the event were all really entertaining. Hope they do more tournaments or events like this in the future cause the streams and banter between the three was top tier.
