>>69003230Sora is that great. Every time she does a performance threads are filled with people that didn't know or forgot how powerful she is live on stage.
But the big thing is that she legitimizes the company. A lot of the girls with the talents don't play well with sponsors and stuff because vtubing attracts genuine social awkwardness. It's why Aqua never got that much even during Aquamania. Sora was originally hired from an outside company to promote Cover projects and just blew up by accident, so she's very good at the commercial aspects of the job.
Between these two factors they've never actually been able to replace her as the face. Newfags forever that years ago they used to push other girls who were more natural vtubers in various capacities but they don't even try anymore no matter who's popular in any given season because Sora is just straight up great for business. The idea that she's only here on seniority is a huge misunderstanding
