See, in my opinion, they need to be really careful now that they don't become the TNA of the Vtubing world. For none wrestling autists, TNA was a "rival" show to WWE after the collapse of the other major company, WCW. TNA had lots of young, impressive talent that they were pushing but were VERY much an "indie" show seen as being a proving ground before you moved onto bigger shows like WWE... then after WCW died a bunch of talent didn't want to work for WWE so they got hired up by TNA who tried to act like a big dog with these new recognisable names. Then anytime a WWE wrestler quit or was fired, TNA would snatch them up. Very quickly all of their own homegrown talent was buried to make room for their new "big names". TNA quickly became a joke and I think it's gone bankrupt (again). That's just what VShojo is doing with Coco and Rushia. They're picking up Hololive's scraps and they're trying to make a big deal of it... just like TNA did. TNA died a VERY hard death. Numerous changes of owners, numerous talents quitting on enmasse, several bankrupt sagas. Basically everyone ended up going back to WWE after awhile because that's where the money actually was and TNA was left with a tiny pool of nobodies, even their own homegrown talent all left to WWE to other smaller wrestling shows that had overtaken them in popularity.
That's probably quite spergy for non-wrestling fans but it was the first thing that comes to mind as someone who likes another form of niche entertainment. VS is just starting to act like TNA did in the early 2000s by running to pick up the bigger channel's cast offs. Vtubing doesn't have the same number of castoffs from big companies though as WWE would have which is a plus but it wouldn't surprise me if HL keeps growing, they'll start cutting their less well performing members. You'll have a "Baki-Ruze" appearing in VS a week after Aki-Rose gets graduated.
Is it nice to see Rushia back...I guess... but she already was back and only wasn't livestreaming because she was being such a menhera. She had a fucking new model made for Mikeneko and streamed like once... now she's changing again to be another new character lol Kson didn't need VS and Mike didn't need VS, that's why I see it as VShojo trying to catch HL's scraps, to promote themselves more than help those two. That's what TNA did and TNA shit the bed
