Suisei is probably one of the clearest cut examples of the power of platform and a brand. You can see the free viewers when she joined INNK in May 2019, then in August a bump from being allowed to show off at a Holo Project Winter collab, then in November Mario Kart Tournament plus joining Hololive, then Holofes 1 in December and that karaoke collab in early January. But the real deal is her 3D debut in March, that was when all Hololive viewers were funneled to her channel. I kind of wonder if going up against Nijifes might have actually helped people check out what Hololive was doing at the same time, Toko (unsurprisingly) and Touya (a bit more surprisingly) were also tweeting about her instead of watching Nijifes.
Of course, all the eyes brought in by the platform would have been for naught had she not the ability to keep the viewers with streams.
