Comparing IRyS to Nerissa and saying "Nerissa is much better" is a stupid ass argument for the Antis that I have never understood when even Nerissa has said four times on stream that she loved the way IRyS sounds and one of the times, outright said she can't hold a candle to her.
In the first 6 months, IRyS could sing like this

The fags who make these Tier lists and shit threads are completely fraud just because of the fact that they judge IRyS based off of her music views and not Karaoke views.
IRyS gets better Karaoke views than anyone in En besides Mumei and even then, she is neck to neck in viewership with Mumei.
Mumei herself mentioned during the Japan trip that IRyS was a whole another level when Towa, Mumei, Bae and IRyS had gone to Japan and she wishes to sing more like her.
The only En I personally like more than IRyS for Karaoke stuff is probably Gura but that's because I am a Chumbud and Gura's voice brings some emotion out of me and that's a biased point of view
