>>28890431What you're seeing is people confronted with undeniable proof that she's popular outside of this board, at least within such a niche community, with very energetic and excited fans. It's kinda what Mori was getting at last night, where she prided herself thinking "YEP, here are all the fucking BOTS that showed up and rocked this fucking concert hall!"
Isolated, it's easy to dismiss things as dumb or cringe if you're unsure of it, it's naturally human nature to be cautious or disinterested in the "new". However, one aspect of human interaction that has been ingrained in our very genetic code is popularity, and an appeal to a group consciousness.
Play a Mori song to a friend in silence and wait for their response? Gonna be an awkward time for everyone.
Show a video of her packing out a concert hall where even fucking Japs are jumping around, cheering and waving their hands in excitement? People's interests are naturally piqued, and the popularity is more appealing by default.
Marketing has perfected these kinds of designs, and is the EXACT reason they encouraged the Glowsticks to be put down, and the phones to go up: Emphasize the spectacle of the event, and show how fucking Hype it got people to see her perform. While she was tired after over an hour of singing, she fucking put her ALL on that fucking stage, and it showed, so it makes people more excited for the next one.
