>>58893785Holostars EN (male talents) debuted last year, caused the biggest shitstorm imaginable, and currently the aftermath is that the 2 most influential ones graduated simultaneously, and Kronii tanked her numbers by pissing off unicorns and goslings who didn't want male collabs. Other EN girls also collabed with them but didn't get quite the same backlash.
The first 2 EN gens have gotten their 3d models and some concert performances. A 3rd one just debuted a month ago.
NijiEN started off strong, but hired too many dangerous talents for their brand or whatever and now at least 3 of them have graduated/terminated. We found out earlier this year that part of that brand is paying their talents 2% of the money from their merch sales.
Small corpos like phase and idol have become much more prevalent. Tons of other even smaller corpos have started up in the last year, but only time will tell if they last.
Other anons might disagree, but I don't actually think the culture has changed that much. There were just parts of it that normies got surprised over. The honeymoon phase is definitely finished though.
