>>4752096I never said she was getting worse, I said she was stagnating. Mori started out on a pretty low bar to me, and for a while she was getting way better and now it looks like she's plateaued at a still not very high bar. I've said this before and I'll say it again, I want new stimulation in my entertainment. Mori no longer provides that in any meaningful way. Ina has fun reps streams that actually teach things, Kiara constantly does some wack shit with props or insane ramblings and Holotalk has genuinely made me like her more, Ame and Gura I am indifferent to honestly but the Fish Tank thing is very nice to see. Mori is the only EN who feels like she has legitimately not been trying anything new of her own volition recently. A huge part of entertainment as a streamer is enthusiasm towards streaming as a concept, being an entertainer for the people who take the time out of their day to watch you live. That's why I still love Ollie, she has more raw charisma than all the ENs put together even if it's an unfocused mess. At the end of the day I want to see them attempt to actually improve, create better streams, create more engaging content, create better personalities for themselves. All the ENs except mori have been putting in their reps for that (arguably not Ina but she was always on the more educational content route so she always had a broader base to work with) and that's what I enjoy seeing. That's the idol experience, you watch someone grow into a person who's worth aspiring to, someone who you can look up to as a story of inspiration and point to and say "they did it for us, I can do it for them." Mori does not inspire that kind of adoration from me anymore. Even Anya has been getting better at a faster pace than Mori and she's Anya. Again, I have nothing against the idea of coming back to mori when she improves, but she needs to improve. The idol experience is why these girls need to start out at zero, so we can see that hard work, mori has not been putting in that hard work. I don't even like Ame but I have to give her credit for putting in the effort to make things happen of her own volition. Everything Mori has done recently feels more like obligation than anything else, I hope it doesn't stay like that but I've been hoping for months and I don't have infinite hope to waste.
