>They survive by the fact they are entertainingSo are many other vtuber groups.
>AND the huge success of Nissin's Curry Meshi collabThat was like a year after the Azur Lane collab and EOP boom boosting them in the youtube algo. Supacha money and gachikoi shilling were important for a while. I'm not saying that Hololive desperately needs them today but my entire point was that they contributed in the past so just discarding them wouldn't be very nice.
>>18311919What do you think allowed them to bring in casual viewers? Clip niggers. Who was doing clips for free trying to promote their oshi before it became lucrative? Gachikoi. The likes of lyger and chink clippers were there months before Asacoco. There is a reason why Hololive started completely dominating the clip scene shortly after the sankisei take off and idolbu going to shit.
