>>51736322-4k is already a considerable chunk of HoloEN's viewership for everyone except Gura but that's not the point. NijiEN will be expanding with new gens getting more exposure on debut than their initial one. Remember that they are the underdog in this market and no amount of ads can change it. NijiEN instead will provide organic growth in the west which they had been lacking for a while. I've watched a few of their streams and ancient Nijisanji clips started appearing in my recommended. I've seen most of those already but there are plenty of Hololive only newfags watching LazuLight who were hardly aware that Nijisanji even existed before NijiEN debuted. Even the "my favorite holos are Lulu and Ars" pests are hardly a thing anymore. Next NijiEN gen will debut with twice the initial viewership. They would need to fuck something up really bad not to incline in the long run. Even collectively it will take them a while to grow to anywhere near HoloEN's size if they ever will but they will be a presence that will divert some viewers and fan content creators from now on.
Then the small agencies will contribute to the recline by a thousand cuts. It doesn't matter if each of their girls only gets 150 viewers on average when there are like 25 of them debuting this Summer alone and some of them will punch above their agency's weight, e.g. Pika.
>>5174694I'm not saying that Hololive or Nijisanji attracts insane talent, but they do raise the bar somewhat. Most of the successful ones have charisma and nice voices at least. Can't say the same about Vshitjo. Have you heard Veibae speak? Being a crass cunt is not much of a talent, girls with much better voices can do it just as well.
