>>11870284As a Watamate, the 2 are in a pretty different situation.
Suisei is THE vtuber singer at this point, even last year NCP won Best Vtuber Song and as a solo artist she's doing the best sales in a long time.
That's also the thing, she's been doing the singer route for a very long time, not just with the Cinderella vocalist story, but since the start of her career she's been associated with singing.
As much as Watame is known for her singing, it's not been her main draw, instead being the chill fluffy late night long streams.
I know calling 3 months of song releases 'rushed' seems weird, but it did feel a bit like a shift in content and people didn't have enough time to adjust.
Hell, unlike Suisei who saw another raise in ccv, Watame has seen a big drop since she started dedicating time to off-stream recordings, practice and promotion.
But it doesn't help that almost none of the Holos sing her songs in karaoke streams. They did come out a bit too recently and most are hard to sing, but if you wanted to, 3 months is more than enough time to learn at least 1 song.
I think a year from now Watame will be way more established and do even better for her 2nd live, but by then Suisei would be way bigger and we'll have this same conversation again.
