I agree. Hololive and Nijisanji present themselves quite differently. One is akin to an ongoing SOL anime, while the other replicates western streaming culture which took off way before the meta got introduced to JP. The roster size also helps since it's big enough to have a diverse number of talents but small enough that you have minimal overlap and you don't overwhelm the viewers. Just look at >pic related (ignore the tranny at the top). You may only follow 1 or 2 Holos but because of how much they interact with each other, you're bound to at least become familiar with most of the people on there. If you're a fan of Niji, if you post a pic of their full roster, I'd be surprised if anyone can name more than 100 of them on memory alone.

How is it forced (except for Umisea which we all know was mandated by management)? PekoMoona was one of the most engaging arcs of Hololive and Moona barely knows how to speak English, let alone Japanese. Gura (because of supplanting AI) is basically treated as an equal if not outright revered by most of the HoloJP talents and fans. In fact, HoloEn exploding in its first few months paved the way for interbranch unity because their popularity made them equal to the eyes of the main branch so now you couldn't just treat them like an afterthought. Unity is based on two people viewing each other as at least equals. If one views the other as beneath them then that's not really unity, that's just tokenism.
