>>19646792What happened is he applied during a time where male apps were not being looked at in Hololive. That is simply the truth. It's the same case as Luca who was interested in an NijiEN branch before one was even made, and got rejected from Lazulight. He was called back eventually. The difference here is Hololive took over a year to specify that they want males. Nijisanji was Shu's focus since 2019, as he's hako-oshi for them, it was all he talked about in PL. Nijisanji didn't have an iota of a hint that EN would exist back then.
I am glad he didn't get into Holostars, because he is a great fit for Nijisanji. No offense to Holostars bros. The boys are great but I don't like how the girls treat them. Saying that female unicorns are the reason they won't reach out for Holostars collabs.
