>>79939932>It's like they know Cover's plans, try to counter program, and then do it incorrectly and shoot themselves in the foot to the level that it ends up making Cover look good by comparisonThis is literally exactly what it is, though. They rush to be ahead of any and every single milestone that Cover tries to hit, primarily with the intent of diminishing a bit of the shine from each of Hololive's projects while putting them into the conversation in the process.
And the thing with that is the quality doesn't ACTUALLY matter, because their intent is not and never has been to create the best possible experience for their fans and viewers, it's to be a competitive business that appeals to investors and shareholders. And to that extent, what Anycolor is doing perfectly matches that playbook: they get to boast about how they had a collaboration with an American sports institution just like their competitor did, but they were ahead of the curve and did it first (That latter part doesn't matter as much as it matters just for them to have parity with Cover, but it also doesn't hurt).
It's managerial decisionmaking that prioritizes what looks and sounds good on paper above all else, and in the long term this regularly shows itself to undermine the business itself but nobody making those decisions cares because none of them see Anycolor as their long-term pursuit and only care about what value they can wring out of it in this exact moment.
