I'm the resident Izuru oshi and I don't have an issue with female collabs. My issue is when those collabs are with overseas talents because all of them are either trying to stick it to The Evil Idol Culture (Mori, Kronii) or are incapable of acting professional and their personalities revolve around le funni simp xD (Ollie, Kobo). Those collabs may bring him numbers but they will also bring in beggars who will turn him into an accessory (e.g Astellie) and won't respect him nor his chat rules. He has expressed his worries regarding new Japanese listeners feeling intimidated by a rowdy chat or walls of English comments before, and I respect that because he is a Japanese man who speaks Japanese that wants to cater to an audience that understands him. If that gets me branded as an schizo then so be it, but trust me when I say how terrible mid 2020 to mid 2021 was for both him and his chat.
There are people on Twitter already begging for him and Kobo to become Astellie 2.0 and it's getting on my nerves but that's what I get for venturing outside of the comfy cirlce of Japanese Izuru fans I follow.
