>>1102008mmm dunno if I'd call the 'branch a 'dominating success' yet. Things have settled down quite a bit, and SC wise all but Ina,who actively discourages superchats are upper mid tier. but none are top 5 or anything. Also it remains to be seen whether a 2nd gen will gather just as much of an audience without cannibalizing the 1st branch, and whether they will get enough views to not be a generation of Mel's.
I think every EN who is interested in Hololive in general is already here, its 'too corporate' or ;too cringe; for anyone else.
Maybe if you get another big streamer in the branch their fans will come along, but that doesn't mean they'll filter to the rest of the gen, or even stay for the streamer
Basically open question on whether EN gen 1 is a 1 hit wonder, and the rest fizzle out or not for lack of new audience coming in..
