>>32275632>doesn't mention howI shouldn't need to explain to you what's wrong with the branch if you actually watch NijiEN. Every wave after Ethyria is a complete trainwreck of normalfags and parasites who put 0 effort into their content and think they're just virtual boyfriends for lonely losers instead of artists and entertainers. Literally the same shit that killed Hololive is infecting Niji, endless pandering to the lowest common denominator and cultivating the most underage and ignorant fans imaginable by promoting forced memes and Twitch-level humor. The days of Pomu shaming tourists for begging her to say "Hi Honey" are long gone and replaced by retards like Luca who endlessly regurgitate zoomer memes and tiktok videos for thousands of mouthbreathing tourists.
>hates collabs but watches nijiDon't put words in my mouth faggot, I badly want another Pomu/Elira collab or more Selen Apex collabs with JP's or Dtto/Bobon. Hating collabs with bad vtubers is not the same thing as hating collabs in general.
>literally no discussion about the content at all, only tinder-esque vtuber profilingThe fuck do you want me to do, explain what Nijisanji EN and all their vtubers are? It's implicitly assumed if you're entering a thread about Nijisanji that you're at least familiar with their vtubers already. I shouldn't have to preface every complaint by educating holobronies on what each vtuber's content is like.
>>32275718They can both be going in bad directions at the same time. I don't really keep up with Hololive so I don't know what's going on with them lately. I stopped watching shortly near the end of 2020 when it became obvious none of them care about their channels beyond making money except Kiara. NijiEN's problem is they keep hiring people whose only knowledge of vtubers is ironically through Hololive so they just emulate Hololive's style of GFE with male vtubers. If we actually had male vtubers like JP who put out fun zatsudans like Kenmochi or organize cool events it'd be a totally different situation. Unfortunately none of NIjiEN's hires after Ethyria have any idea what Nijisanji is or what vtubers are outside of the Hololive clips they encounter when they search "vtuber" on Youtube.
