>>48236763>>48237515>>48237589I wanted to check the validity of these claims so I made a list of all the HoloEN-ONLY collabs that were held this year.
i.e. only includes HoloEN members, no ID, no JP and obviously no homos.
This way we can see how many collabs there are "within" the HoloEN box.

Multi-POV collabs

Channels with zero HoloEN collabs : Gura, Irys
Monthly HoloEN collabs -
> January : 7> February : 9> March : 5> April : 8Total : 29, around 7 per month on average.
There is honestly some merit to the complaints, because despite the high number of collabs, 20 of them are from people that anons /here/ don't want to watch : Kiara, Mori, Kronii and Bae.
The rest is just 9 collabs, around 2 a month, for the entirety of 2023 so far. And most of them were off-collabs as well, special events that won't be repeated for a long while.
And there ARE girls who don't really collab with the rest of EN on their channel at all.
e.g. Amelia, Gura, Irys, Fauna, Kronii and Ina all have less than 3 collabs on their channel for the 1st quarter of this year.
Gura especially is guilty of this, because the last collab that was on her channel was an Amongus collab from 7 fucking months ago (
https://youtu.be/-TPkX7tLj3Q).
It explains why chumbuds never watch other holos even when Gura is on break, those that sub to Gura alone (about 4M) never even see the other girls appearing on her own channel.
Why would they watch (to them) random streamers that their oshi had like one collab with?
So if she's on a break for too long, they just fucking leave.
Ame has this issue as well, with just one big group collab on her channel this year.
However, those outside of /here/ that don't hate any of the Holos, can still watch the 21 additional collabs that are no-go for anons /here/ and enjoy them as is, along with the extra Tempus collabs.
These are probably the people who keep telling you to just "enjoy the existing girls".
But they would also be the types to never buy merch, especially if there's something as small as "shipping" blocking their way. Fans that just watch things because "I am entertained" but are fine with not paying for anything.
In the end, I think this anon
>>48229899 had the right of it, a lot of the EN fanbase /here/ seem to have cut themselves off from the majority of collab content because they do not like the people involved, or are people that just watch their oshi out of habit and so small things like shipping prices can stop them from buying merch, because they're not really THAT into her.
EN3 if it ever comes out will help for a month or two, but unless they're stellar entertainers and people that can improve the overall group chemistry by dragging their senpais into collabs, these problems will continue to persist.
