>>52240512Imagine you're Mori for a moment. You know fuck all about vtubing and you applied to Hololive knowing literally nothing about it except a couple of Korone clips you saw. You get in, hot damn now you ccan talk to Boogey Voxx about how cool vtubing is. Suddenly you're in front of 60,000 people, they're showering you with superchats and you think "damn vtubing is this big?" thinking that you just underestimated the size of the industry instead of recognizing you're at a pivotal moment in vtubing history about about to hit heights of EN vtubing that will NEVER be matched again.
Fame, success, money, all come to you more easily than you ever imagined. You're riding the wave and everything you touch turns to gold. The only problem is you need to keep doing this cringe anime girl LARP on stream. But all your fans say they love you, your personality and that they want you to be genuine. Surely they're not blowing smoke up your ass right? So you make the moves you want to. You get closer to e-celebs. You bitch out your manager night and day until he lets you collab with Ironmouse. You ramp up your RM activities with the expectation all your loyal fans who clearly love you for your personality and not your big tittied goth girl anime avatar will follow you across.
You get signed up with UMG, the pinnacle of your career. You're signed with a real record label. This is it, you're at the top of the mountain and have everything you dreamed of.
And then it all starts falling apart. Your stream viewership is collapsing, your songs that used to easily get 5 million within the first 2 months are flopping left and right. What's going on? The Jews at UMG are on your ass about your views and Blu Ray sales.
And then you realize. You realize why people watch Hololive. All the redditors who said they wanted you to be genuine? They were lying because they're indoctrinated to always be positive and 70% of them simply noped out when you disregarded the CGDCT that Hololive viewers want. All the cringe stuff you wanted to escape from? That was essential, it's the reason for your initial success, it's all people wanted.
You scramble as hard as you fucking can to try and claw whatever you can back. You start doing Holo JP collabs, you restart Takamori, that cringe shit you couldn't get away from fast enough in 2020, you do your best to actually stream and let people know that "Hey I like cute anime girl stuff look at me again!"
But it's too late. You've lost the trust of your audience and they won't go back. Collabs with Tempiss are your only hope of ever getting about 10k again and the future is blacker than Idris Elbas ass.
That's what happened to Mori.
