in terms of general awareness, all of holoEN has at least the minimum required to function in hololive, otherwise they would have yabbed out ages ago. however, all of them are, to a certain extent, bigheaded about their position
to me, the way intelligence factors in is how their general competence comes out. on the comedic side, all of them are pon. without exception
but where it becomes a little concerning is when they show themselves unwilling to learn, and even learn from mistakes. if they're not open to how the world actually works in the instance they're faced with a problem, it might come across to many as cute and adorable, but unless it's some kind of bit, i don't see any quality of exercised intelligence coming through in those moments. mumei claims she exercises by just walking her dog. that ain't exercise, and it's telling to see that she turns her nose up to medical input. fauna's "never punished" bit continues to come across as a real disposition on her part and can bite her in her vegan ass if she's not careful. bae never stops, and that's going to stop her in her tracks. kronii's "perfection" bit, like fauna's, shows a real disposition, and she depends too heavily on the clout she has gathered that it deflects the problems she faces. and i lose braincells when i watch irys. there is a base intelligence to them to function well enough, but they are also growing in their willingness to either prolong problems, or create more problems for themselves down the line.
but their fanbases will spam their headpat, cry, and heart emojis in chat to affirm all of it. i would go so far as to say that aside from the issues the girls may have, it's the fans that shouldn't have enabled them in the first place.
