    While I understand the reason behind the split, it kinda breaks my heart to see Oga speaks like they accept that Holostars will always play second fiddle to Hololive. People like Rikka had proven time and time that his talents are worth millions of views, which he does get when he collabbed with Matsuri and Calliope, but when he sang solo or with a fellow Holostar suddenly his views hardly break 200K. It's like they know the market is unfair but they have no choice but to deal with it.
    Of course it's not limited to Holostars, even fellow Hololive members like Akirose suffered the same issue. They're no less talented than their peers, they just drew the short end of the marketing stick.

      Its sad but also thats what happens when you have a kkgjjgilllion VTubers streaming many times a day. Its pretty hard to always be on for one, let alone many of the hologirls, and or Holostars. Luna has 3-4k on her streams. Aki got 2k.
      I wish Cover would stop with the auditions. I think its too much and I don't like the answer we got from Yagoo in the Coco interview.

      And sure, for the people that prefer more hologirls speaking on their language, let's keep up hololive ID and EN. Havent seen much of ID but the en branch is a really solid unit. Like a wide variety of personalities, very different but that compliment each other so well. But sure Gen 2 would still be sustainable and give the En branch a bit more mass.

    I respect and love Holostars a lot. These guy have adapted pretty well despite being hated from the beginning. They have been on the slow grind, so when I see them reaching new stages I feel just so proud of them. I don't see them as hololive, each one of them has their own identity and I hope someday they understand that for many fans, holostars is not in anyone's shadow.

    One important fact to remember is that the hololive girls and holostars boys also need an actual incentive to do a collab.
    The reason why Coco reached out to Kaoru (and no one else) is because Kaoru and Coco had mutual interest in beauty products(?) and such and could work something out with that.

    Wonder what Kaoru is up to these days. It would be great if what Coco did with her graduation would make it ok for members to talk about other graduates without having to talk like they are a memory that are to be forgotten, not even allowed to say their name, even if everyone knows who they are talking about. I feel like it should be ok to say the name, because they were part of all of this and the work they did shouldnt be treated like some kind of taboo. Of course its sad to talk about something like this so its not a good idea to bring it up a lot, but it feels more like they are forbidden to talk about it normally, which makes it even more sad.
    But I dont have insider information, so it might just be my naivety speaking.

The most likely reason why Clover chose not to archive Aloe's channel and vidos along with removeing her profile from the website, was most likely something requested by Aloe herself personally. Which considering the kind of harassment she was receiving from the antis, her decision to have Clover do so is understandable from her standpoint.

Overseas viewers would not mind them collaborating but even then there are overseas fans that are highly possessive stans.

      It may affect JP Hololstars but if/when Holostars EN occurs I doubt it will matter much. The EN branch is very similar to the ID branch in that they don't really care who they collab with. Hell I probably wouldn't be too far off by saying the primary reason not so many collabs have even happened is because of the existing language barrier.
      Calli's collabed with Rikka and Roberu has commented in a stream of hers, Astel has sent Ame a super chat and Kiara has considered getting Roberu on Holotalk. It may not happen with Japan but as ID and EN grow I don't think it's going to matter in the long run.We just have to get there first.

So anyone auditioning already knew.

    The more I look into it, the sadder I get.
    The feeling of inferiority is a terrible thing, and yet, it seems like the HoloStars have to just learn to deal with it. And yet, I'm almost positive that one of the biggest reasons HoloStars have such smaller audiences is simply because Cover Corp lets it happen.
    Just because they're guys, and don't sexually appeal to the wide audience isn't really a good reason for why they don't get much attention. Think about it. Nijisanji has it's male talents on level with its female ones. Furthermore, some of the biggest personalities on TH-cam (not just VTubers) are males who attract a wide audience because of their entertaining personality.
    No. HoloStars are left in the dust because Cover Corp doesn't do much more than the bare minimum to support them. They get basically no advertising whatsoever, whereas the girls appear on public windows and boards over in Japan. The girls of the JP branch have the HoloLive Graffiti shorts, whereas HoloStars has nothing even remotely similar.
    I know it wouldn't fix everything, but if Cover Corp could just stop playing favorites, I'm sure it'd be a step in the right direction.

    One of the biggest mistake of managers in Hololive/Cover is that they are don't allow to freely make collab streams between Holostars and Hololive. I'm sure that girls and boys have different audience, but giving them just some basic freedom (permission to Holostars play on one server in minecraft with Hololive members or made holograph with holostars, etc) and intersection of audiences will be even more.

    • @GekTC
      @GekTC 3 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      I do not think the barrier comes from a management standpoint, or else Choco, Matsuri and Fubuki would have never been allowed to interact with Holostars either, and Cover abolished their "no male/female interaction" clause via Twitter a long time ago. It is a Japanese social stigma more than anything, one that is more about the idol girls than it is about male coworkers, which is why Oga says he thinks it is OK for the girls to not talk to them. He is more worried about the girls being harmed than about the guys getting ignored, which I kind of get.
      In all fairness, I do not think there is a single person in Holopro that actually enjoys that this is how things are, and I bet that the other girls look up at the likes of Choco, Matsuri and Fubuki on this regard, but they cannot actually say it in public out of fear of backlash, but I bet that they have told them privately more than once. It takes a *lot* of bravery and guts to be like them and defy both social standards and rabid fans the way they do and it is understandable why others are not doing it. Subaru to a good degree too - she may not talk to Holostars per se, but she does to Nijisanji guys, and what backlash she got for it did nothing to shatter her or even prevent her from doing it again, so props to her too. And then Coco of course for what was mentioned on the video.
      Indeed, we can safely assume that there are many JP Hololive girls who fully support the existence of Holostars and other male Vtubers, but simply do not have the courage to take the leap that is doing so on a public manner. Maybe one day, you know.

    They're also going to fall for each other, being charismatic folk. And the power games that come with that are exactly why you don't get with your coworkers if you're wise.
