>>4727651>Gen 0, 1 and 2s are - still tied to the overall idea of unity but existing way more within her own circleWhat do you mean by this?
>gen 0Completely unreasonable to use these and compare to Mori because their vtuber personas were literally active and building connections before Hololive. And notice how post-Hololive, Miko especially dropped her old partners as quick as she could, so it's hard to call that a 'circle'.
>gen 1It's not currently the case, but Matsuri, Fubuki, and Haato used to be major Hololive collabers across gens. Matsuri has attempted to fuck most of the roster, Haato has attempted to fuck with a respectable amount of the roster, and Fubuki will collab all the damn time to the point that she has pairings like SENPAITACHI or OKFAMS and such.
Mel and Aki do have the vast majority of their collabs with HL too, even if they are a rarer sight. Aki has the guitar guy, I guess?
>gen 2"don't stream" isn't a circle. When they do collab, it's almost never with non-holos, especially nowadays. The only major one I'd consider part of a circle is the Ui Mama's misbegotten family, and even that stopped months and months and months ago.
