>>33128631While not a proper 3D debut, we’ve long saw it at Hololive’s Festival for all the branches, even ID gen 1. It’s cool that NijiEN’s is getting theirs, but it’s not exactly a bragging point when NijiEN’s own members are taking about a year just to get new costumes, their Live2D is woefully outdated compared to Vtuber studio, Nijisanji in general has a huge 3D backlog to go through, it’s just a mess due to having too many livers.
Bringing up Vox as a metric also doesn’t represent the branch that greatly. He’s at the top, but mainly in that one time slot and with full on fujopandering, vs any of the HoloEN girls who can casually play whatever practically anytime and pull in similar numbers. Meanwhile unless Vox does what he does most of his audience just won’t follow him for it, and he admitted to unfortunately caring about numbers during a Minecraft stream.
And that’s the best at NijiEN outside of Enna recently. Others are now 3 digit territory, a low HoloEN still hasn’t hit.
