>>43172054>considering the ethyria debut period, wherein the months afterwards all lazusydia experienced stagnated growths, it was only expected that releasing even more female livers would've resulted in similar results.I'd argue they should've debuted Luxiem before Ethyria, to give the fans of girls something to look forward to inbetween Luxiem and Noctyx. But also while you say the girls experienced "stagnated growth" during the Ethyria months they also experienced some of their highest superchat earnings to date, so things were just stabilizing if anything. Fans weren't unhappy like these days, it's just that the female vtuber audience peaked near the end of 2021 and there's nothing you can do about that.
>the main reason why everything is so shit as it is, as with all corpos, is that management did a huge fuckup. it would've fucked up whether they had male or female liversManagement has definitely been fucking up a lot, but the livers themselves have also been fucking up.
>Millie constantly hetshipping herself with male members and sexually harassing co-workers, refusing to take care of her health resulting in a near constant hiatus during 2022>Enna doing her whole cuck arc to alienate her original fans in favor of chinese women>Reimu hetshipping herself with Vox, eliminating all her gachis in the process>Luca destroying the Minecraft server, killing the entire branch's interest in streaming Minecraft which was one of their most successful games>Vox having constant menhera episodes slowly filtering his fanbase over multiple minor fuckups>Nina Luxiem offcollab arc which scared off a lot of her boomer game fans>Ike and Shu refusing to stream, ever>Fulgur getting caught talking shit in the discord leak, fueling a lot of hate towards NijiEN from casual viewers who normally don't keep up with vtuber dramaManagement was definitely the worst offender in general, but the livers have done a horrible job of promoting and growing the branch and have had a lot of unforced errors. They just lack the tact or work ethic of Lazusydia. Luxiem DID have an explosive start, but their unwillingness to do as much work for their fans as the older waves is very visible to their fans, and they're slowly leaving as a result. Their anniversary was fucking embarrassing, none of them had anything prepared for their fans except Luca who did a half-assed vrchat world. The girls always talked about how much money they reinvest into their channels to give back to their fans, but Luxiem's fans got to see exactly how little their oshis think of them, not even giving enough of a shit to do a VtL cover.
