>>33239838Ever heard of personal opinion? Well duh, combine the subs, SC and CCV rankings, and you'll get close to something that's an 'objective' shortlist of 20 that could please all kinds of viewers.
Here's where the girls you listed are on my overall rank out of 54, just for your curiosity:
12. Aqua (I don't disagree with your take, but I'll take someone with a great past who declined over somebody who was never really interesting at all. I don't have a goldfish zoomer brain to forget any of her moments.)
13. Luna (The most unique character in all of Hololive, with literally the best in-character actress behind it. The best at the cute daughter atmosphere in VTubing, which is preferable over half a dozen dumb blondes out there.)
17. Chloe (She's not god-tier, but she's had her fair share of quite, quirky and hilarious moments. One of the best models in Hololive too.)
18. AZKi (Best model in all of Hololive, and the queen of seiso. Sure, she never streams nor has ever been relevant, but she's incredibly graceful in everything she does, in a much better way than Sora is. She's basically top wife material personified.)
26. Subaru (She's a good all-around VTuber, but there's nothing extraordinary about her beyond the duck-sounding tomboy spiel. Her voice is unique, but very easy to get tired of.)
30. Lui (She's alright, but obviously needs to build on those memorable moments. I strongly disagree with your take on Watame, she's a meme machine. It's her, Pekora and Korone that's the holy trinity of JP content. Rare controversies/yabs with a fuckton of quotable moments.)
32. Sora (What you said is not relevant, in a vacuum setting that I'm listing, she was never the one they built a company around on. I'm not keeping somebody bland for that purpose or trying to lean onto as if she's one of the managers.)
34. Suisei (She's a VSinger more than anything, and her only meme material revolves around people saying Suisex and Suipiss. I don't care.)
40. Mio (Nothing much is remarkable about her, including what you listed, and she's not even top 20 on this board in popularity. Baffling to see as complaint.)
53. Marine (Biggest coombait to exist, not a fucking chance. There's a reason why I didn't just put a vanilla list after just reading SC earners or MV stats. My list is staying sane, and not making me feel ashamed to be a VTuber fan, thanks.)
You can keep your Marines, Subarus, Suiseis and Soras. I'll keep my AZKi, Aqua, Chloe and Luna. Interestingly nothing about the English/Indonesian half, as if it's not as equally important part of the company, judging by your JP-only elitism.
