PSSSSSSSSST!
>HEY KIDS, WANNA SEE SOMETHING SAD?Here is something that might surprise many that were not around, specially with her name thrown around as it is right now
>August 23rd, 2020>Himawari has become the 2nd Nijisanji Liver to reach 500 000 subscribersHere is one Reddit comment about her appeal
>I find her fictional family collabs (Dokuzuhonsha) are quite funny, and glad there were translators who managed to do LONG translations. eg, The origin story, the family cheering playing Super Mario Bros 3.>Another adorable thing is if you watch Honma+Kuzuha carefully you'll notice she likes to repeat what Kuzuha says every now and then (eg. https://youtu.be/l9_PfRJnlvQ?t=933 ~15:43).>You'll also sometimes see her mimicing him in their 3d collabs too.>A while back Honma released this untranslated 13min compilation clip, which seems to be a bunch of clips of her raging.>What's funny is half the clips is solo rage, and the other half is mostly raging with/at other Dokuzuhonsha members (especially at her fake little brother Kuzuha).>Even though lots of translated clips show her as the energetic airhead, there's an old untranslated clip with Honma, Kuzuha & Kanae/ChroNoiR which is sad but heartwarming.>Basically the three were playing PUBG as a team, Honma dies about halfway through the match, then there's ~10mins of ChroNoiR gameplay in which they ultimately win.>In the post-match, Honma was crying and Kuzuha & Kanae console her.>I don't fully understand what they're all saying but I believe Honma is disappointed in herself in comparison to ChroNoiR, which was similar to what recently happened with Yuuki Chihiro in her Apex collab with ChroNoiR.In my opinion she is a cautionary tale for every streamer and, specifically, every girl whose claim to fame ends up being part of a unit.
It's pretty much Nowa advice personified
>you live and die by your solo contentShe leaned too hard on group interaction and when coof took her out of commission, when she finally came back the caravan had moved on.
Here are the links the anon mentions

Vibes of Salome following suit?
One more thing: when she hit that milestone she outranked 20 of the old guard of HoloJP plus all four of the recently debuted Gen 5 (and likely Aloe too, but she is not in this image).
Right now, two full years in, she just hit 700k subs and the only Holo active back then not outranking her right now is
>AZKiwith 671k subs
Who said numbers couldn't be sad as well.
