>>82483144I don't like it.
The good part of vtubing is that after tiring day I can just turn on stream or video and watch cute anime girls at peace as something to let my brain rest.
Turning them into common and ever-present advertisement mascots will unironically make them less enjoyable - I'll see Korone and other girls everywhere at most banners and in magazines and in an aisle with frozen foods in local market, why I would want after entire day of being soaked in Hololive to check Hololive content? And if they will just become common and ordinary mascots their novelty as advertisement will also become less and less attractive.
Yagoo is retarded, this is literal death of Hololive. It may bring him quick and dirty boost of cash but in long term this will just ruin brand. He wants Hololive to be like Disney and sure as fuck people will stop reacting to Korone or Fubuki just as they have absolutely zero reaction to Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck because people have zero emotion to overly popular and ever present advertisement symbols.
