>>38019811It was always going to happen because ILUNA didn't appeal to the zhangs.
Scarle is a 3-view but she's also earned $90k in donations, and she said she's at peace with it because she has night classes that force her to stream at hours that are too late for Americans and too early for Europeans.
There's a lot of Nijis that have spent time as 3-views. Rosemi really struggled to break 1k when she started, and all of Ethyria were 3-views after their first week. All of them recovered though because they all found their place not only as streamers but also as part of NijiEN. ILUNA have found their footing as individuals but I can't tell you a single one of them who feel like they're a part of the broader company.
For Tempus, these guys have no expectations, no EN senpai in their own branch, and they had a much larger viewerbase for a longer period of time. Now half of them have ILUNA-tier viewership and they've already exhausted their trump card of HoloEN collabs. Much like StarsJP didn't benefit from Tempus, Tempus won't benefit from future generations, and they've already been exposed to all the Holofans that were willing to give them a chance.
(The biggest flop is undoubtedly Aster though, at least Aia does her reps).
