>>38676771honestly I think this is actually not a bad idea in the grand scheme of things.
the issue is a rare bilingual girl is fucking totally wasted on the NijiEN audience itself, which consists over 50% of fujos who don't care or notice how rare that is and the remainder dudes being a bunch of casual normalfags who would argue with you for like an hour about why they shouldn't bother to learn Japanese. don't even ask them what their favorite anime is because they might have literally never watched it or it's literally going to be naruto and one piece type answers.
I think they took these in more to just not allow Cover to nab them, because an actual bilingual Irys-like girl who would be very keen on GFE/idol activities etc would be pretty much right what the doctor ordered for what at least some of the HoloEN audience ideally would wish is there instead of irreverent/ignorant western ethots.
