>>78081451Different does not equal worse. She does not possess the same degree of skill in singing as most chuubas and she knows this. But if singing ability and performances were the metric for all good vtubers, then how is Selen/Dokibird so popular compared to other corpotubers and indies with greater singing ability than her?
>fundamentally more talented and appealing than herDokibird fulfills the niche of a dudebro girl chuuba that hangs with the bois and gives zero shits about GFE or intentional fanservice pandering in any way, shape, or form. If you don’t see her appeal, then you’re not the kind of person who would watch her. Simple as. In the same way that Selen could never even begin to dream of going on THE FIRST TAKE and collaborate with big music producers, no one in Holo EN can claim top500 OW2 and former apex pred titles in their entire streaming careers. And the Holos are not interested in that kind of achievement, either. apples to oranges, dipshit.
>leech off of them Actual pre-corpo friend in Mumei, neck yourself. I’ll look forward to the board’s reaction when the inevitable interaction with Ollie, Zeta, Ame, or Mumei happens.
>HYTEThere are valid points of criticism to be made for HYTE in working with Dokibird. But let’s not pretend that any anon here would figure out aw ay to involve their oshi in their products if they were a company big enough to try. Smart business decision? Perhaps not. But from the perspective of supporting your oshi while getting something out of it, then it’s almost a no-brainer.
>no talent in the entire “indie community” The indie community includes actual voice actors that are regularly included in anime and video game EN dubs (yes, I’m talking about AmaLee and CyYu). “Wah wah, VAs don’t count” or something like that lol, your broad statement is incorrect. Would you like to segregate them too?
Hololive is a great company with plenty of talents. But if HoloJP regularly collaborates with other “smaller” corpos like VSPO and even larger JP indies, then it only makes sense for HoloEN to involve themselves the same way. This means, in the future, HoloEN is going to get more involved with the “talentless indie community” and they will only exist in your mind to prop up your oshi because you’re a mindless drone who only believes in the blue dorito. If Ame had Doki’s drive, they’d have cornered the market on every front. But that’s sadly not the case.
