>>14828581I'm actually the opposite. Though I do enjoy the interpersonal relationships in NijiEN, I don't want it to be limited to a group of friends. I think that Nijisanji's true strength lies in being a platform rather than a product. Personally, the expansion is kind of painful, since it seems everything is drifting apart; but I think it's for the better. Think of all the other people that'll get to work in Nijisanji and all the people that will watch them that wouldn't otherwise. Of course, you run the risk of it all ending up being way less defined, true; but firstly, I don't think that's happened in the other branches, and secondly, if this weren't too happen we would run the risk of it all becoming routine, which is the last thing I want.
Some people will be closer to some over others. Not everything lasts forever. And something unpleasant is bound to happen someday. That's just reality. Ironically, that I can see that is what I most like about this vtuber agency.
But only time will tell.
