>>27751042Go check the Nijisanji subreddit right now. Even with their large EN fanbase nobody fucking uses it because nobody feels the need to shill Nijisanji. Everyone who ends up in the Nijisanji fanbase has already seen Hololive, they've already seen the indies and 2view corpos, and they chose Nijisanji over all of them without needing the Youtube algorithm to tell them what to think.
They've also experienced first-hand the obnoxiousness of Holofags spamming their forced memes all over the internet and don't want to be associated with that level of cringe. You retards made the actual seasoned otaku on /jp/ hate vtubers in general with how incessantly you spammed the board with surface-level garbage until a containment board was made.
You guys can have fun spamming your yubi yubis and your ogeys and your hi honeys in normalfag spaces like Reddit and Twitter, but I don't have that kind of loyalty to a brand to give them so much unpaid advertising out of my free time. Most Nijifags just watch vtubers as one aspect of their obsession with Japanese culture, we're too busy consuming anime and manga and video games and jdramas to spend time on Twitter or dump hundreds of hours into making clips.
>>27751411The only NijiEN fanbase that was originally holofags was Lazulight/Obsydia honestly. With every future wave they've attracted their own niche. Ethyria had more in common with 2view groups like Wactor than Hololive. Luxiem is mostly NijiJP fans and Kpop sisters, almost none of them were familiar with Hololive.
It's definitely true though NijiJP and NijiEN seem like totally segregated fanbases. They may support eachother superficially but hardly interact outside collabs. It's not at all like Hololive's culture of shilling everyone.
