Why put up with Hololive's overhead and expections when you can just stay indie and keep everything? You aren't even getting any extra protection or support either; Cover can't even do either for their top acts, let alone for their non-JP branches.
Why even bother? Western male streamers are greasy ass nerds streaming in pajamas, looks do not matter for them all at. What would an anime avatar do for say pic related?
