>>8041843You're clearly me from a month ago. My opinions have evolved since then.
>Design is all over the place, and the outfits themselves are way overdone.Looking at the comparison, the EN2 characters have nicer, more detailed aesthetics. I like most of the designs, although space is too brown and rrat is too red.
>The deviantart-tier lore doesn't help either, fans want to see cute and entertaining characters with a simple fantasy theme, not omnipotent beings who are already trying too hard before even debutingI would've thought so too, but the more this takes from the more it looks like a concept that could work.
>Holomyth itself was already pushing it, unsurprisingly most of their lore was just kinda ignored after a week. Ina is the only one who actually made it work somehow, even Kiara doesn't bring up much of her volume-long character concept anymore, which is for the best really.Holomyth didn't care enough about, elaborate on, or play into their lore. They just weren't channeling their characters properly, and honestly still.aren't.
>You'd think they'd know better than fucking doubling down on the whole OCDONUTSTEEL shitNo. I think this is far enough towards the end of the horseshoe that it's good-adjacent.
>THAT SAID, I trust Cover to have made a good selection of talents who can make it work somehow. They suck at pretty much everything, but they sure know how to pick the girls, it's actually uncanny.This is where I really take issue with your opinion. After the Irys debacle, I have zero faith that they can find talents who can entertaningly roleplay these well designed characters. I want to believe. It's certainly possible. But that would be the best case scenario (for us viewers) where all of them are incredibly engaging. Niji would be absolutely decimated as a consequence, at least until EN is allowed to collab with them. But that's a price I'm willing to pay for Gamers 2 Chuuni Boogaloo. It just doesn't seem realistic.
