I sincerely believe Mori is partly responsible for holoEN's success as a whole. In my personal case, I just checked their debuts out in a whim without expecting them to be good at all. If Mori hadn't dropped Please RIP in her debut (and then the rest of the EP shortly after), I wouldn't have stuck around there and then, and certainly wouldn't have given Kiara and Amelia a second chance after their debuts, nor Gura after her Maneater stream. Mori carried holoEN at the very start, to the point her and Ina were the only ones I didn't have any doubts about back then. She was the one that convinced me holoEN had a future and were something besides a joke.

Of course this must be very easy to forget now that three months have passed, Mori has a dedicated anti base and she mostly streams at bad times, while Amelia quickly went from being a complete disaster at debut to top 10 in hololive with absurd streaming hours, and Gura didn't just turn out to be a FotM; but I still think that first impression was vitally important.

tl;dr: if it weren't for her I wouldn't be here at all, so no.

Her EP's cover really is fantastic.
