>>46732235The reason pippa talks shit is the same reason any given small vtuber talks shit. No one ever expected her to be more than like 100 viewers, because in 2021 when she debuted all the small EN companies weren't shit meanwhile Holo had 500k on Coco's graduation (was this the peak of holohype?) and like 100k on Kronii's debut and shit like that. Hololive was unstoppable and then Niji countered with Luxiem and both of them had a stellar, huge 2021. Then in 2022 suddenly the hololive girls were like "streaming is hard :(" and then nijisanji was inclining pretty good for like 10 months until the Yab Express went into overdrive with multiple graduations, shit-talking, cuckstravaganzas, canceled concerts, shadow suspensions when literally 18 nijis were """on vacation""" at the same time, nijinegros shitting on each other for no reason and on /vt/ and so on.
So what the fuck happened? The answer is no one expected pippa would get 7-8k on her big streams and 2.7k average CCV on stupid shit like "watching old news videos from 30 years ago and asking what the fuck happened here".
Pippa said that shit because she had no confidence that a day would come she'd be making more in SCs than Gawr fucking Gura when both are streaming, but she literally is.
The same can also go for other members of PC too, like Lumi and Tenma getting 1k-2k views pretty frequently and others like Lia and Shiina and Erina doing pretty well for themselves also. PC and Idol blowing up as hard as they did is surprising because no one thought small companies would be more than 2views, but they did.
