>>15601880I see this thread all the time and it's getting annoying so I guess I'll let you know the actual reason.
Council is not horrible, but they aren't great either.
One never streams and refuses to showcase her actual talent in the fear she will upstage the person who got her hired.
Two have "you know what" and so are dead on arrival.
One of them gushes over a dude and refuses to stream at any time other than like 2 to 4 AM for most of her potential viewer base,
And the last one is decent but seems to be depressed to the point of apathy.
Hololive is for idols and idolfags. EN management was never really comfortable with this because they're faggots, with one or more of them being actual literal trannies IRL. However, they were probably told to shove their disdain for idol culture up their ass by Cover for the first gen and IRyS which ended up blowing away everyone's expectations.
Because of Myth's success and Cover's main EN recruiter leaving the company (evidenced from Cover's linkedin), they probably gave EN management the opportunity to prove themselves by scouting talent. Naturally, being faggots, EN management decided to put less emphasis on idol characteristics and more on specific abilities like speaking multiple languages, ASMR, whatever they thought Mumei was good at, etc. Even though Myth was extremely successful, the EN management wanted to prove the West doesn't care about boyfriends or singing or idol activities because it would make recruiting and managing future talent way, way easier if they didn't have to spend months searching for diamonds every new gen.
TLDR: EN management are lazy faggots that hate idols and idol culture and were wrong about the West not wanting it, at least from Hololive.
