>>70589297I think it's a deeper issue than just Sayu not wanting to change the style of her content. It doesn't feel like she is taking the chance to relaunch her career now that she can have a completely fresh start, she is just going along the ride and doing what she already was planning to do. And that's fine, but you can tell that projects like the website were designed thinking of a small community, and Sayu is still acting like if she was a pariah who only can get parasocial fans to support her. Same stuff with her stubbornness to do networking unless it gives her a new real friend.
At the end of the day Sayu will be fine, but you can clearly tell that she wants a lot more than she already has when she says how much the fanart means for her and how she wishes she had more.
Sayu is an amazing streamer, she should feel proud of herself, go out there and devour the fucking world. The problem is that she is the one who needs to take the first step to get out of the small island she is currently at. And that seems like a fucking massive tall order right now.
Like, going back to the youtube topic, it would help her a lot having a definitive name and design for the fanbase. It's the kind of stuff that you can figure out pretty quickly, but she has been dragging her feet for weeks now and it looks like this week will only have collabs. Sayu, please... just give us a couple of hours and do a zatsudan to sort this thing out...
I know that deepdown she cares a lot about this kind of stuff, so it's a little frustrating seeing her procrastinating so much and missing her best chance in a long while to really grow her community.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
