>>104223017One of the things that bothers me the most is people's attitude towards 3D. This is mostly a complaint about Nijisanji though.
But they see 3D as this spectacular, amazing, incredible thing that anyone would die to have. They even say, western talents should move to japan so they can do 3D more often, 3D is so special and so important!
But the 3D isn't even that impressive, it looks like some PS2 graphics. They do a couple skits and funny things, maybe they'll even sing a song, but unless it's a major show the production values are often limited. So why does everyone care about it so much?
From what I gather, these fans absolutely *worship* the corporation. Like they are a feudal serf and the corporation is their lord and master. So when someone gets 3D, it's seen as "the corporation approves of you!" and that's the real reason it's such an intense experience that 100's of thousands will watch.
In Hololive it's not the same, instead of little skits they have fully produced shows with camera angles, lighting, staging, prepared music, guests, choreography....etc. It's an actual performance with real value. You still get the fans that worship the corporation and kiss the corporation's feet.
But in Nijisanji, it's so bad that the talents judge "success" not by having a large audience, or becoming popular and successful. To them "success" means the corporation chose them for x,y,z opportunity. If the corporation likes you and picks you for things, that makes you a "success". It reminds me of a cult atmosphere.
