If you're already established and making comfortable money, going with Niji is probably something you really need to consider. Everything I've read about them is that they're more of a dog eat dog group and you have to do a lot of your own leg work. Its very profitable if you become successful though due to their merchandising.

This is what makes me incredibly curious as to how NijiEN will pan out. Will Nijisanji all of a sudden do a 180 and become more of a interconnected/collab style agency like Hololive to grow that overseas audience with the JP talents? Or will they stick with how they've been doing things? I think right out of the gate NijiEN will have a big audience from the curiosity perspective, so the people that make it in will be winning big (whether or not viewers stay is a different matter). So in this case its definitely would worth it for smaller/medium indies to try out.

The obvious benefit is the support with the dumb, arbitrary youtube channel deletions/bans. Indie/small vtubers already have a hell of a time getting that poo poo fixed, so I can see why people would want that type of backing.

I gotta say, I'd be skeptical about the prospects of being a dude and working in Holostars regardless of what language it'd be. I don't know what it is, whether it's an issue with Cover or if it's an organizational problem with the talent, but when a a rhythm game dweeb and a middle-aged uncle type with stories of hemmrhoid-sabotaged soapland have double your sub counts...

I would've guessed it'd maybe be a lack of appetite for "male virtual idols" but Kuzuha and Kanae are the biggest dudes in Nijisanji, and they're vaguely idol adjacent despite spending the majority of their timing farting around on Apex

Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
It's generally hololive heavily isolating their sections. Nijisanji once upon a time had separated groups before just mashing everyone together. Kanae was originally part of the Gamer group, and there was another separated group called SEED.

IND branch not long ago was also pretty isolated until Moona and Pekora decided to play together constantly.

Holostars just doesn't interact with the main branch nearly as much as Niji does all the time with opposite genders.

The impression I got is that a lot of the Hololive girls are shy enough interacting outside of their own circle, but then you have Sora, Fubuki, Matsuri, and to a lesser extent Subaru collabing with the Holostars and beyond regularly.

In other news, the OG will be streaming her 2nd concert on YouTube in about 6 hours.

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE DEAD, MOTHERFUCKER?

The stars kinda get a raw deal in that they can't interact as much with the more popular branch. I've also read that they are designed more like an idol experience for women viewers vs catering to typical male viewers. How true is that? Both those can really hold back their sub counts. honestly I've loved all the clips I've seen from them but I don't have the time to watch.

I'm pretty glad Holostars is kind of the last relatively "sectioned off" part of the broader Holo-umbrella. I was kind of fully expecting the English branch to get that sort of treatment at first and, somehow, forces conspired to prevent that from happening, and also moved Hololive Indonesia from the sideshow to the big tent so to speak. And as unfortuate as the HoloCN situation was its disappearance had the effect of just increasing Hololive's cohesion as a whole.

It's interesting how much the way things seemed to have been organized just kind of completely changed by accident. It's easy to imagine a HoloEN without Kiara, or HoloID without Moona, still feeling incredibly siloed off.

Are you sure? Nene made a tweet later after the announcement and it seems like this isn't a delay - rather, she isn't going to get a New Year outfit at all (this year):

https://twitter.com/momosuzunene/status/1343851209795354626?s=20

I imagine this is a consequence of Cover having to dedicate resources to making a redesign. She's getting a new outfit there, but that means no New Year's.
