>>51445460I doubt that this model of small corpos launching many vtubers and hoping they will succeed just because they have decent character designs and lore videos will work in the long run. They lack a huge brand like Hololive to support them, and they haven't shown themselves to be good entertainers like self-made 4view indie vtubers who earned their popularity by themselves. The markets are saturated and vtubers in themselves are no longer that novel, so new vtubers have to stand out by being talented and entertaining enough that people want to watch them over existing vtubers. And even if these small corpos get lucky and cultivate a talent that sustainably gets thousands of viewers, that vtuber can just pull a Pikamee and reappear in a company like Vshojo where they actually own their IP.
