With Iron Mouse becoming the face of Western Vtubing on Twitch, the NijiEN Males explosion, and many indies gaining more relevance and recognition with wider audiences on Twitch and Youtube, is HoloEN no longer influential powerhouse it once was? It just seems like EN has been rapidly losing all ground as the most influential group in vtubing.

Well I don't know much about smaller corps and twitch indies but HoloEN has been doing a pretty good job at killing themselves these last months.
Management is clearly incompetent, nepotism hires have been a total disappointment unlike NijiEN and their own JP branch, and most talents have lost their original motivation and just stream (sometimes) to collect their fat paycheck. Textbook stagnation.
HoloEN is never going to die but will keep reclining permanently if nothing changes.

Bait thread aside, it really does feel like Hololive, certainly for the EN side, is at least stagnating ("decline" is too overdramatic, they're just not really growing as much anymore).
Sure, they have their big subcounts, but most of those are just deadsubs from brand inertia, whereas in metrics like ccv they're not really setting new records, while others are catching up instead. Holofags used to scoff at NijiEN for example back when the average viewer difference was tenfold, but nowadays some Niji's are regularly reaching ccv's on par or even above some Holo talents (sure, you can constantly move the goalposts "oh it's just [that] Holo, she was always low-tier, it doesn't count...", but as the number of Holo's that apparently "don't count" increases, the cope sounds ever more weaker). And let's not even get into how some Vshojos regularly get 10k+ viewers now, where the average for every Holo not named Gura, or outside special events, is below that. But of course, that's >Vshojo, and also >twitch, so again "d-doesn't count!".

Don't get me wrong, Hololive is still the biggest, most popular, most prestigious address in vtubing (at least for the western normie masses), and that's not going away overnight, they can afford to coast along on their brand buff inertia for awhile, but the trajectory (Hololive stalling, others improving) can be shifting in the future. Unless Holo manages to find another miracle generation that'll push them to new heights again (or do something unique that sets them apart again, because the first-mover-advantage of being the first "notable" EN vtubers has long since worn out and doesn't cut it anymore when there's so many alternatives now), but going by the underwhelming Council, it seems their luck has run out and they're not likely to strike lightning again. If an EN3 gen comes out (far too late, going by Cover's previous pattern, and the hype has already died down), I predict they will get even less subs/subgrowth than Council (who already had less growth than Myth), so we're probably looking at a downward staircase pattern of popularity.

Not really the issue, at least for the EN side. It's not that they're held up too much in buerocratic busywork, it's rather that they're being given too little direction (or face any actual consequences when they slack off).
Useless Cover (we have the whole txt meme about it for a reason) basically just gives them their work iphone and says "here you go, you're on your own now, do as much or as little as you like, we don't care...", and when a talent has a more lazy personality and/or prioritizes other things and treats Holo just as a "side job", this leads to those bad apples abusing the system, and there's no real way to reign them in.

Twitch is quite literally irrelevant. There are people there that gain significant ground there by doing "reactions", i.e. watching someone else's videos while eating lunch and not providing any transformation of the original content. Because Twitch allows the blatant theft of content from other platforms, anyone that's popular on Twitch is thereby as irrelevant as Twitch.

>Mori: I don't really need to say anything, do I?

>Ame: gets bored and burned out, like she does for every one of her projects, only now Hololive in general

You can come up with your own reasons, and order the girls by likelihood. I make no secret that I consider Mori the most probable first candidate, and that's not even because I "want her gone" bias, but out of all of them she has had the most significant arguments for it (for example, has already publicly stated her frustration with Hololive, especially on roommate acc, and has kept active her roommate career, so the fallback is there and means/motives make the most sense for her)

Still sounds like cope. They're not mailing back and forth with their producers 24/7, neither do they have "meetings" all the time, and lessons some may go to also are realistically only a few hours per week.
If they'd be open and honest about their daily timetable, you'd find a lot of downtime in the day for most of them, that could easily be filled with at least a short 1-2 hour stream (and so you'd still have 10-16 more waking hours left over to do all the other ~important stuff~ that's used as an excuse for why we should believe they're soooo busy).
Face it, the more probable explanation for the apparent slack in some talents is just the simplest one - they simply just don't care enough, are lazy, don't feel the motivation or need to put in any more effort (and why would they, the company doesn't punish them, the fanbase certainly doesn't), so they're naturally minmaxing their "how little work can I actually get away with and still collect enough simp money?" ratio. If you rather want to believe that "nooooo they would never think like that, they're all pure honest souls who totally love to stream, they just c-can't because they're all soooo busy", sure, if that helps you, but other people don't have to buy into that delusion

I know this post is bait but shit HoloEn seem to be stagnating.
Look at myth for exemple 4/5 of their members are burnout or something.
And no matter how many fans are in denial about it they fucked up with Holocouncil they just didnt have the same impact as their senpai and they dont fucking stream or atleast they didnt for a long time and Sana still doesnt.
I just took a look at the top 3 of luxiem and their vods views are in the same ballpark as myth and council expect Of course Gura with less than half of their subscribers.
What a fucking waste, I just hope EN3 bring some life into HoloEN cause they're on their way to irrelevancy and management trying harder with game permission wouldnt hurt either.

Ironmouse is FOTM for normies that bandwagon om a streamer for a month or two before ditching for the next shiny streamer. A few months back it was some korean chick. And now for Ironmouse, in her case she got massively buffed through a combination of her own hard work collabbing with high view streamers and a mix of pity and saviorfags coming out of the woodwork to say they helped some poor Hispanic bubble girl get money.

HololiveEN is stagnating though. They don't put in the sort of hours like the twitch crowd and their game choices are so vanilla by personal choice or hamstrung by permissions that no one wants to watch them play Minecraft and talk to chat when they could be watching the newest AAA game release.

Kiara has actually work ethic, in fact I remember when she was talking about how she worked with japanese managers prior to Hololive and said not a single myth girl could have handle that level of stress and demand.

She's used to the rigors of JP management, she also actually wants to be an idol and perform to a huge audience, the rest of them don't really give them a shit, neither does the audience considering the most JP like EN member is the least popular, and the twitch zoomers are hyper popular.
The reason Holo is getting stale is because theyre a walled off garden, they don't innovate, they don't change their approach, they just stick to what works for them, problem is its no longer as shiny as its used to be the and market is super saturated right now, and I'm not even talking about Niji's, Twitch for example, lots of companies that are having trouble on youtube are finding new life over there.

And the elephant in the room is that the girls they hire just aren't very mentally stable, they're also very unhealthy judging by the avalanche of problems the EN girls have, mentally ill people are easy to control, but they're not very reliable.

How much data is out there on api sites? I've seen the screencap of paid subs/prime subs/gifted subs, but I want to know who and when people gifted subs. My guess is that a few turbo orbiters overdraw their entire account for gifted subs, especially since a similar thing happened with members of Melody's fanbase.

>>18778919
FOTM hunting is the meta for Twitch for quite some time. Reddit's credo since its creation is FOTM hunting and shitting the thing into the ground before heading for a another victim.
While you are right about Holos not streaming as much as a twitch streamer, keep in mind how much money they still make with a fraction of the streaming "work" involved. Well, not like the react meta on twitch is particularly straining either.

They hated him because he said the truth.
I've spent the last year watching all the up and coming EN small corpos, and it's night and day in the work ethic between some of them and Myth/Council. When you have girls who are literally working full time jobs who just love streaming so much that they decide to stream during their lunch break AND then also stream when they get back from work, that shows me how some girls are truly passionate for what they do.
If anyone ever says "well myth and council don't stream because they're busy", I simply will not buy it any more. Someone who loves stream and loves their fanbase will always, always, always find a way to make it work.

6K paid. 5K prime. All the girls usually float around 40% gifted and keeping a constant flow of viewers keeps the new whales coming. The subathon is distorting the hell out of this, but that's what subathons always do. Ludwig's 280K was all gifted too. Probably why he ended at 1 month instead of trying to fight the falloff.

>> No.18780435

No he ended because he didn't want to stream 24/7 for the rest of his life. No one really does these subathons for "milestones", it's to make a shitload of money fast with subs and ad revenue

Could be. His chat certainly seemed to want to see how many days they could draw the last 5 minutes out to.
I'm just speculating that it's harder to generate hype when the number goes down in huge chunks. Saw it in Mouse's stream as well when her birthday gifts were wearing off and idiots in chat who can't count to 30 were spazzing the counter was broken.

If your issue is the sub count categories vs total;
prime + tiered + unlisted
I have no idea how the website does it's counts or wtf "unlisted" actually is.

>> No.18781811

>>18781380
Gift subs are my issue here. If we use tier 2 and 3 subs as a baseline of her "core" audience, there's pretty much no change here. Prime subs tripling over the subathon is fine, but the gifted sub count just seems way out of line compared to her follower increase in that time frame. The only conclusion I can draw from this here is that a small group of people is inflating the number to ridiculous proportions.

>> No.18781850

$400k worth of subs is impressive but come on Pekora sold over $1 million worth of merch. Irys made over $100k from vinyl's, cds and cassettes + however much top 6 in both Itunes and amazon music in digital downloads was worth. Impressive is how much her fans were willing to spend without receiving anything in return besides clout.

The same goes for superchat stats you know.
Making it into an issue is a slippery slope.

Subathons are a distortion and people get hyped over the numbers more than usual. Though since you bring it up, it is a real problem that some guys think their big donos mean they have personal access to the streamer. They can get parasocial over it.
Such is the life of a whale and part of why I dislike subathons, along with the dilution of content quality.

HoloEN would probably have more of a presence if they liked streaming. The counter-example to this is Bae currently, but she's also going through the "vtuber starter set" as far as content goes so even though she's streaming often, none of it is interesting.

You've got a group of people who were hired to stream and they don't stream. Yeah, no fucking shit their online presence and overall influence has died down a bit over the past year. People who are interested in vtubers who have branched out have found alternate streamers outside of Hololive who fit their tastes more. It's gonna happen no matter what.
