Some honest, straight-forward thoughts:
Poor Yoro keeps getting screwed over by fate. I don't watch her because her timeslot is very bad for me, but I like how unique she is and she being one of the first /wvt/s back in the /jp/-/trash/ days before /vt/ was made.
As some people said, I both commend Nyaru for sticking to her guns and Shirayuri Pro during the entirety of its lifespan, but also, it's very clear she can reach further heights if she does things in a different way. Shirayuri had 0 advertising, and most of it felt like hobbyists rather than them taking it seriously. It may hurt and she probably has read this a million times, but it is what it is.
Now as a true indie, she has 3 options:
-solo indie and not care about growth
-solo indie and pray/luck for growth
-make an indie circle that buffs each other, /lig/ Barbies style
-join another corpo
Regardless of option she first has to bite the bullet and get a better model and rigging, the design is great but the actual implementation is lagging behind for her size and potential.
Strong points of Nyaru:
-Incredibly valuable skill of being able to be both super-close to fans but also be able to tardwrangle schizos and groomers. Most vtubers either have one skill or the other. Either too distant or manipulated and swamped by groomers. I don't know if she realizes how good she is at this.
-In a similar way, gives fanservice and can talk lewd without going all the way to whoretubers. Great balance.
-Relatable, affable person, can talk about anything, interacts with chat a lot
-Plays fun non-FOTM things like TF2 etc
-/k/ friendly
-2houfag
-Actual expert on idols
-Great taste in old internet meme culture, with community submitted watchalongs of classic videos and such
-Very resilient despite menhera, she always springs back and keeps being positive and cheerful
Weak points:
-Model/rigging needs update
-Needs to improve her setup and make more use of her knowledge of dancing
-She's kinda tone-deaf when singing (very SOVL though), no need to go full Vsinger training, but her idol brand could benefit from a few singing lessons. Again no need to go full tryhard, just some lessons. Tone deaf is not an inherent state, stop being menhera and do your reps.
-Sometimes she hyperfocuses on games and doesn't interact well with chat.
-Networking reps. She's related to various ecosystems like /wvt/, phase connect /choc/ etc, but she generally looks kinda isolated when it comes to actual activities. Even with Shirayuri she felt a bit isolated.
