>Can we talk about how we hope they start scheduling more JP streams, now? I would love for them to do weekly collabs with a new JP senpai each time, especially if they were just Fuwawa or Mococo solo
Hell no, I wouldn't like that. I can deal with collabs as FUWAMOCO with senpai if there is a LiveTL. I really wouldn't like FWMC solo JP streams though. I greatly prefer collab EN FUWAMOCO streams over JP collabs, and I greatly greatly prefer EN FUWAMOCO solo streams over all else. I'll just dump some of the common arguments here:
>But why not JP
Because it's content that doesn't appeal to an EOP like me. It's for JP viewers and EOPs are on the sidelines of "enjoy it if you can." The opposite applies to EN content for JP viewers.
>That's so selfish, JP bros are ruffians too, etc.
Yeah, so? I'm a viewer, not a philanthropist. I'm not watching a stream for a moral cause. I enjoy FWMC content, but I don't enjoy JP content the same way because I am disconnected from it.
>Menhera FOMO!
It's not a matter of FOMO. I don't fear I miss out on it. I simply don't like JP content. I like EN content. Take away a time slot of something I like and replace it with something I like either a lot less or something I don't like, of course I won't be happy with that.
>Hololive is built on JP! Respect the roots arguments, etc.
This is Hololive EN. Maybe foundations are JP, but the branch is HoloEN, and the content's target audience is clearly for EN. Same way with HoloJP's focus being JP. I look at Ririka doing EN streams, and I wouldn't blame the JP bros if they disliked those too.
>Inclusivity arguments, bridging the JP and EN side
...A pipedream. Someone always get shafted from EN or JP, either in successive turns for one stream like IRyS does or even if one gets LiveTL. The only way to bridge JP and EN perfectly is to be able to in complete real time give out EN and JP simultaneously while also showing your target audience for chat participation (reading comments) is an even split. It's not possible. An amazing LiveTL is delayed too. Even if PeroTL types 1000WPM and also won't be perfectly giving you full context.
