>>16983836She refuses to change because she thinks it would be a "betrayal" of her identity or who she is. This happens a lot with kids who were losers and bullied when they were younger. Not to mention she hangs out with TT faggots who say things like "Hololive is instant success". She addresses this in Mountaintop, with the "little Miss Company hire" line. Her greatest fear is that these people are right and that people only like her because of Hololive. The reality is, it's not so black and white but Mori is a retard who chugs stupid bitch juice and is incapable of nuance. That's why she leans so hard the other way, coupled with her already contrarian nature. She can't separate her work life and her personal life, to her, she only has to have one life or else she'll be "fake". But again the reality is, people like Mori Calliope which yes, is one part the anime girl avatar and the Hololive brand name, but also part the woman behind them. Neither of them can be successful without the other, both are integral to success. Mori also is a shit judge of character as evidenced by her hanging out with the indie rap scene which mainly just used her (and she them to her own admission) leading her to believe that friendships were all transactional. End of a Life is her coming (partly) to terms with that, but not completely, she recognizes she's no longer friends with them but doesn't get that if they were real friends, they would have been happy for her success, not resenting it. That's also why she's blind to the TT faggots, she can't accept that she'd make the same mistake again, all this backlash against them must be from bitter trolls. She's afraid if she "changes for Hololive" she won't be herself anymore, when in reality, Hololive was never about putting your whole self out there alone, otherwise why not just stream as yourself without a fake name and avatar? But again she's a fucking retard who can't into shades of gray.
