I can't understand people who insist Hololive and Holostars collabs should be the norm
Why won't they look at the bigger picture?
The girls' and boys' group separation are their identity, one of their selling points and it is a business model that has been working well for Hololive and make them rise to become one of the top groups
To change their business model would have been wasting their years of hard work
It is one thing to change their business model if their current business model doesn't work, but it is still working well for them

>But EN has been stagnating for a while
It's not because the current business model is not working, but vtubing hype has been slowing down for the western since there's no covid restriction and some of the girls aren't exactly desirable to watch
What needed to be done by EN is shaping up their workers and engrained in their brains that they're hired as entertainers first and foremost, instead of changing the business model
If EN3 is filled with a PR disaster like Mori, a retard like Kronii and "my dog died" Sana then you might as well expect EN to fall even more after EN3's honeymoon period is over
The current increase of attention is just twittards, homobeggars and virtue signalers jumping in to own the evil incels of the toxic idol culture
They are just as troublesome as unicorns and their existence should be ignored just like the chinks nationalist

And while it's true that in 2018 and early 2019, Holo did collabs with males quite often, they know that didn't work well for them and they choose to go with the "girls only paradise" with some exceptions obviously, but generally Hololive as a whole is providing the "girls only paradise" experience to the viewers

No one knows what's going on in the heads of EN management. But look at the boys already becoming 3views. The demand is extremely low, and they must realize. In japan is it even worse but at least they have people willing to buy merch, attend concerts. It will not be the same in the west. I don't see why the girls can't play with them offline if they are such amazing dudes, because the constant collabs aren't benefiting either side.

You're 100% correct. Unfortunately there are very vocal people that float around and watch whatever the newest shiny thing is.
They might have a couple people in Holo that they like to watch sometimes but they don't particularly care about them as a group or care about what makes Holo unique since they were never actually invested in their idol journey.
They see Tempus and Holo as the same group so it's weird to them that some Holos wont interact with them. This feeling is increased by how Tempus effectively is a Hololive gen with around half of their non Tempus collabs being with Hololive.

It does look bad when the girls are at least 4views, but is it completely a bad thing? Some top Holos in pic related used to be 2views and 3views when the rest of their coworkers are 4 views but look at them now. And those who actually grind to gain their views are unironically going to be better streamers

With StarsJP, although their viewers are on the lower side when compared to the girls, their viewers are quite the royal and loyal crowd

hololive is like a girls-only school and a boys-only school. each school has their own identity and story. some girls are good with hanging out with the boys and vice versa. shit happens when people try to BAN interaction in all forms or FORCE interaction in any way. when girls-only schools have any interaction with the boys-only school, it's like a special event, and it's alright to have that. niji is like a coed school to begin with. different model yet worse drama still happens. normal people seems to be prevailing anyway. accept each talent's branding of themselves. don't need to be unicorn or collab beggar. don't need to force "coed school" model. hololive is still thriving and better than niji. nijien is dying.

>I can't understand people who insist Hololive and Holostars collabs should be the norm
Those who insist on normalizing the mixed collab don't care about the business, they don't care about the entertainment. The very idea of "girls only paradise" strokes them the wrong way. It doesn't fit their world view and they validate themselves by fighting against the concept. Yesterday they fought anime today they fight girls only vtuber groups. If the Holostars branch never existed they would be shitting on Hololive regardless because they would hate to see others having fun in the "girls only paradise".

>> No.33790628

>>33789678
>they would hate to see others having fun in the "girls only paradise".
It's kind of funny seeing how the same crowd that wants to normalize the boys and girls collab are most likely also the alphabet "supporters" but they can't see the appeal of yuri in this girls only paradise and insist that it must be boys and girls
I guess their true color got exposed kek

>> No.33791080

>>33788797
Even some CGDCT anime, like Asobi Asobase, incorporated all-boys schools into their story without being intrusive. The interaction with the all-boys school in the manga and anime allowed for some fun interactions, but ultimately, it's still CGDCT. Same with Daily Lives of High School Boys in reverse. The interaction with the all-girls school made for memorable funny moments, but it was ultimately about the boys.

I see Hololive as the same. You don't need to force the co-ed model. Each "character" in their single-gender school just needs to be respected to direct their own brand, but ultimately, they go back to their all-girls and all-boys places, and that's fine. It just makes any interaction more special. Just don't force it or ban it, and let the girls/boys direct themselves.

Nijisanji never (or failed to) appeal to the CGDCT or CBDCT (or whatever the reverse for the boys) market. Following the analogy of schools, it's like a story in a co-ed school to begin with. That appeals to other people, and it's not like the market for this genre is smaller. Since both market sizes are not really small, the most significant reason for why the other anime is doing worse than the other in a different genre is that it has a worse story (e.g. disjointed lore) or characters (e.g. unlikable people) or just worse in some other way. Nijisanji may be like that against Hololive.

Asobi Asobase is not CGDCT. Even MAL doesn't classify it as such. It doesn't really accentuate the cuteness of the girls, but on the contrary, it makes fun of the cuteness stereotypes. So it's more of a subversion of CGDCT.

Speaking of her, she and Coco are prime examples of why that statement the EN twitter put out is BS.
They claimed that it's up to the individuals to make their own brand but they didn't let Mori collab with Charlie and they didn't let Coco collab with Melody. So it's very clear that their statement was false.
Why they seem to think it's okay for them to absorb Tempus into Holo though I have no idea.

One of the problems is that this archetype you speak of is like 90% of the hololive fanbase.

>I can't understand people who insist Hololive and Holostars collabs should be the norm
>people who insist
It's Cover. Cover is insisting this. Stop blaming a faceless crowd.

Regardless of what the reason is, it still won't end well. Like it or not, the idol shit is hololive's niche, including EN's. They abandon it completely and they're fucked.
