>>9968308>There's not a SINGLE hololive JP member who is proficient in EnglishHaachama seems to be good, Marine and Korone are getting there too.
>How is this possible?Because vtubing is an activity that only an otaku would want to go into, western otaku sometimes might actually try to learn japanese since it´s the language of the stuff they like, japanase otaku don´t need to learn english to enjoy otaku shit.
It´s like asking why there are more english literature fans in japan who can speak english, than english literature fans in the west who can speak japanese.
Also, Cover is a japanese company so they might have considered knowing japanese as a big plus for auditioners when scouting people, on the other hand, being able to speak english is obviously not a concern when scouting for the JP branch.
