I'm struggling to understand where the optimism is coming from. It's clear that Nijisanji currently doesn't have a big EOP following, so we're not going to see a huge support from the get-go like HoloEN did. I mean just from this thread too, how many of you guys actually watch the JP Nijisanjis? I would wager not many.
So it'll be mostly Hololive fans checking them out. While I think the NijiEN debuts may see some decent numbers, maybe 10k~15k viewers because everyone will be curious, I think eventually they're going to mellow out because of the underlying problem: there's no existing EN support from fans.
The only way I see them kind of making it big is if they manage to hire some sort of genius male entertainer, and what are the chances of that given Ichikara's previous international advances?
