Charan-poran Tai

Charan-poran Tai (ちゃらんぽらん隊) was a group of Japanese Virtual YouTubers that produced skits with 3D models. The members, as their group name would suggest, did not take themselves too seriously. Their content is characterized by the exclusive use of budget motion capture.

Members



 * Atori (あとり)
 * Ikkaku (一角)
 * Uma
 * Enoki (えのき)
 * Olive (founder)

Atori, Ikkaku and Uma often appear in livestreams and videos. Enoki and Olive mostly stay behind the scenes.

Introduction
The group posted 3 teasers on 17 April 2018. The introduction video was released a day later.

VR breakout
On 12 May 2018, a video was made to demonstrate a special breakout game made by Olive, the group’s founder. Ikkaku controlled the paddle, which was synchronized to his right arm. The game proceeded with unexpected challenges. He could not run fast enough to catch the ball and, in the middle of a good-looking game, the ball even disappeared due to a bug. Later, the ball got stuck at the ceiling, bouncing back and forth in an infinite loop. Despite many attempts, Ikkaku was unable to clear the level. In the end, Olive changed the map to only include one breakable block, and the game was finally cleared.

First 3D livestream
On 17 May 2018, the Charan-poran Tai celebrated 500 subscribers with the group’s first 3D livestream, which lasted 4 hours. Olive, Uma, Atori and Ikkaku were present. The latter three were shown in their 3D models, but only two of them could move at the same time.

Atori and Uma played the aforementioned VR breakout in collaboration and they beat the game.
