>>96809387My guess is that they basically are just asking for a bit more of output of stuff that brings money to the company. You just have to look at the amount of Voice Packs that the new gens make and you will see that they are basically asking the girls to do more than they did before.
Other older talents probably don't have that many problems because they either don't mind doing the extra work (which imo is probably not that much), or they have other revenue streams which means they don't have to do those (singing, merch deals/collabs with other companies).
That's also why it hits the talents that seem more "lazy", because for whatever reason they don't wanna do that work anymore, be it because it's not their type of thing (Fauna explicitly said that the company still needs people that "only stream"), or they are getting literally sick (Chloe).
The reason Yagoo is blaming himself a bit there is because they haven't found a solution to keep some girls are only streamers. Probably because the biggest "upkeep" of the girls is the Fes appearance, and that's the one thing all those girls probably didn't mind doing, and didn't want to stop (Fauna herself said that being an idol isn't a problem, Aqua did too).
And taking Fes appearances from the girls would be a PR hit they are not willing to take to keep them in the company, and also because at that point what is even the point of being in hololive from their point of view, they would lose basically all the perks of being in the company, but still keep all the perms bullshit.
