>>22253481Her problem with Hololive clearly went way beyond the people in the company, and it was more about the direction.
Hololive back in 2019 and 2020, right around the days the lewdest girls got demonetize (or failed to get monetized) was a wild west, the girls pretty much had no general direction to follow other than
>stream 3 times a week or soThey could play whatever, say whatever, do whatever, be as lewd as they wanted, as crass as they wanted, there was pretty much no limits and most of their most "iconic" moments to this day would be NG today, like Miko's "nigger" and uncensored GTA nightclub visit, Matsuri pissing, pretty much any of Haachama, Aki, Choco or Mel's ASMR and, of course, the one thing to trump them all
>AsaCocoThat was a game changing because it mixed crass humor AND self deprecating humor involving not only Coco but also
>the other girlsPeople don't remember but back in the days, for most people, each girl had their own audience and even mentioning other girls in the chat was a major faux pas (unless the streamer mentioned a name, which they rarely did).
For a streamer to openly make fun of another (like making fun of Watame's constant internet problem), it was out of this world.
The thing is: Youtube was just bouncing back from the Third Adpocalypse
https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/YouTube_Adpocalypse#The_Third_Adpocalypseand they sure as hell wanted to avoid the fourth so for most of 2019 and 2020 they tightened and tightened what was permissible, choking both the girls out of their monetization and the companies into enacting more strict control.
That, and the First Holofes, Aqua's first Sololive, Suisei amazing 3D live (feat. AZKi among others)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awHsi05P2jsand the many other lives that arose from the girls marked a shift in path for Hololive, from
>virtual character companyto
>full blown entertainment companySome girls initially didn't react well to that change, with Okayu almost quitting out of fear she wouldn't measure up to the task of singing and dancing (being from gamers and all).
And Coco (to conclude this tedious longpost) seems to have been the one affected the most.
There is ZERO way the girl that wanted to collab with Projekt Melody (and eventually did, on chaturbate of all places) and that a show featuring drugs and butt stuff, would comfort to the new model of
>comedian idols the company was shifting into, from
>virtual entertainerit was before.
If I were to say what was the reason she left, that would be it
tl;dr: Cover saw future in the idol route, Coco did not.
