>>76928188>They're "relevant" in that they constantly get shilled by managementthis, it's literally just a pet project of Cover's to pretend that they are capable of expanding to be like Anycolor and command huge audiences over both genders. guaranteed they get fucking hammered by people assuming they are only hitting 50% of the market and can make double the income if they just do what they did with Hololive but make it dudes.
the thing is these assumptions are made by bean counters and business """"""experts""""""" who don't actually watch vtubers much or hang out in the crowds of actual vtuber fans to realize that the audiences are basically incompatible, you can't force a crowd of people that was nearly 100% summoned to watch cute girls and get them to all go watch guys now too and expect them to give a shit. it's trying to sell beef steaks to vegans, it doesn't matter how high quality it is, they don't want it and you can't make them want it and if you try to shove it in their mouths they are just going to get really, really mad at you which is fucking precisely what happened when the starsENs were having semi-regular collabs/interactions with the girls during their first year. I feel like they have mostly learned by now with Advent that it's best to just focus on giving cute girl content to people who want cute girls (and coed content literally is not and can never be cute girls content), and give guy content to people who want that instead.
