>>7874169From Hololive, Towa and Matsuri are exceptions because they're constantly being invited to APEX tournaments. Funnily enough, though, Matsuri confirmed on stream that, during the previous APEX tournament hosted by Shibuya Hal, Cover Corp stepped in and told him he couldn't partner any of the girls up with men. Towa, Matsuri, Roboco, Fubuki, Shion, and Ayame were all participating I believe.
Holostars aren't the same production and often collaborate with others outside of their group. I mean, how couldn't you when you get practically no budget, no marketing, no new auditions etc.
>>7874224Maybe you're right, but I do think some of these people want to collab for the sake of playing with people they like/respect that chose a different company, and not solely because there's a corporate benefit to it.
There's not much 'gain' for Hololive to collab with Pikamee or Nyanners, either, but they still greenlit it.
