>>73019409Mouse is more of a fleshie style streamer with a chuuba avatar than a VTuber at this point.
She's facing the same problem that Sora did early on, i.e. no one really taking her seriously as a content creator, more like this weird anime girl you can put into you award shows and stuff to get a bunch of her simps to increase their views.
I mean how can they? Her biggest content is subathons and ship fuel collabs with connor. Not that different from fleshie content and MUCH weirder because a guy liking an anime girl was long pushed as a "weird Japanese thing" so other than some mild curiosity it'll never break out of its current audience.
She also has problems with branding and other issues.
Sora tried to push forward with her musical prowess, but ultimately she alone failed to break into the mainstream, and it was her kouhais that opened a lot of doors for the company and herself.
VShojo is pretty much the mouse show, and I can't imagine her recruiting anyone with a potential to overshadow her. So chuubas will continue to remain a joke on the twitch side.
HoloEN is dominant on the YouTube side, there's no competition. But HoloJP has far more influence on the western streamer scene (even if they don't acknowledge it).
Games like Only Up, Suika game etc. only started getting picked up by western streamers after JP holos played them.
Sadly that lack of competition for HoloEN might be the reason why we're seeing the branch just coasting along.
