Experience and PL numbers are not as much of a priority in the selection process.
They are looking for:
- People that comes with a sound artistic plan.
- Being able to offer something that holo didn't offer before.
- Having a personality that fits well with the holopro environment.

Starting out with 100k Subscribers because you did well on an Interview for a Big Corpo isn't working hard. Even Botan acknowledged that when she started out and felt that she had everything thrown at her with basically nothing to show for that could say "Hey, I earned this.".

Being up on a high pedestal should never be your excuse to become lazy. Most of these "I'm so successful so I can afford to be lazy now" content creators are in their Mid 20s to 30s and have never bent over to pick up a pen for someone else, they can't afford to be lazy.

Which begs the question, what the fuck was Cover thinking, hiring someone who's only/main standout quality was that she was an ARTIST, and who had to my knowledge little to no prior streaming experience, for a STREAMING job?
Being a good artist doesn't make you a good streamer. It doesn't say shit about your ability to entertain an audience for hours, or your motivation to actually stick to the job, etc.

Did they just yolo it, thinking "hey we hired people from unrelated fields with no prior streaming experience before, and it worked out great, surely we can push our luck and roll the dice again and it won't be a dud! The last artist we hired as a streamer for the previous gen did well, and she even recommended the current one, so that's like double the guarantee of success, right?!?!?!"

Or did they even fall for the scam of "hurrdurr having an artist as a streaming talent in our group means she will produce lots of art for us for freeeee!!!", as was the going copexcuse that many Sanalites swallowed and regurgitated when having to deflect from the fact that their chinkdicksucking whore of an oshi was just an apparent lazy cunt and the deaddoghort excuse got too ridiculous "n-nuh uh, you see, she's not just lazy, she...uuh... is ackshually totally working on sooo much artwork for Hololive in the background that it just keeps her too busy for streaming, okay? Stop complaining, you entitled incel chud, when her 1000 page artbook will suuurely come out SOON(tm)(any day now...) you'll all be forced to KNEEL and APOLOGIZE!!!"
And in the end what did she actually produce for Hololive during her whole time there? One debut artwork and one anniversary tapestry? (I'm even being merciful here and don't count the low-effort "mascot" abominations). Wooow, great output, Cover really got much value here, it was really worth wasting a streaming talent spot on this for.

That's literally why, they really fucked up big time and they won't be doing a Gen3 any time soon because of it. JP hiring was way more strict in terms of talent, EN hiring simply looked for already popular people willing to be anime. It was bound to fuck up at some point, it's just that no one expected it to be that early. Especially because she actually had potential and did some good streams before deciding to throw in the towel and said "fuck it, I'll keep playing games and doing art for things". She was 5x more active on her normal account than on Holo, for things she could do with Holo but just chose not to, which was simply fucking absurd.

And I don't hate Sana, I never did, and I still don't, I'm just baffled by the complete waste of potential that could've been completely fucking avoided. At the very least she had Ina right there to look up to and collab with if necessary, and she still put in the absolute bare fucking minimum for most of the time she was active.

He was right, yes, but he's a HUGE narcissistic hypocrite and one of the worst assholes I've ever seen, he thought he'd be welcomed like a god by hololive.
He tried to get collabs through nepotism with Mori and had a meltdown when he realized he couldn't.
He called out hololive fans directly in the worst way possible, telling them, and I quote, "the girls hate you and they laugh at you", only to then latch on to ironmouse, turning her content into shipfaggotry just so he can stroke his ego. So in the end the problem wasn't the message but the messenger, and the tone in which he delivered the message revealing the depth of his petty bitterness at a time when hololive was universally loved.

Having stand up comedy experience would be worth a lot more than streaming experience. It's why there's the whole annoying joke that refuses to die about "le comedians not le idols".

They may need more talents, but not necessarily "professional streamers", is my point. Anyone who joins will become a streamer.

And now they don't have one again, funny how that works out...
(also: Ina Ina Inaaa....)

Again, what did "having an artist of Sana's caliber" actually DO for Cover in the end, during her time she was there? Her actual Hololive-related art output was PATHETIC. One debut illustration and one anniversary illustration, that's her oh-so significant contribution for a whole year? Hell, you could have more output if you simply hired an external artist on a simple commission-basis, and that way you wouldn't have to waste a streaming spot on a streamer who doesn't stream for an artist who doesn't draw.

And they didn't even get this meager output for "free", of course Sana charged money behind the scenes for her work, as it was to be used in prodcuts sold commercially to the fans. Which also explains why she didn't draw more for Hololive during her time there, and was more productive on her roommate job drawing for chink gachashit. She probably demanded too high of a price for Cover willing to pay (which again begs the question, if that's how the business works anyway, why not just hire external artists on a case-by-case basis instead of putting them in a wasted streaming position), the Chinks paid her more, so she continued prioritizing them over Holo which she just treated as a disposable sidejob.

Good riddance then, bitch couldn't have gone out fast enough, and I hope things like "motivation" and "actually wants to make Hololive her number one priority" (along with "is actually an entertaining streamer") will be a learning experience and more relevant hiring criteria for Cover going forward after these recent disasters.

I don't see how it's bullshit when they have hired multiple literal nobodies for holoJP and more recently starsEN. The orange boy was a literal 1 view. What got him in was his covers and his ability to speak two languages at a native level. Again, two things MUCH harder to teach and that would take a MUCH longer time than teaching how to stream. Just look at the progress of all the ENs that had "learning japanese" as one of their goals.
Maybe holoEN specifically has been numberfagging too much when hiring, but that's just one part of the company, and not even close to being a majority.

What does shit like "playing the cello" have to do with actually being an entertaining streamer? Are cello-playing streams going to be a major content focus of his? No? Then it's worthless.

If I wanted to watch someone playing the cello (kek, you can't even really with vtubers anyway), I would just watch one of the thousands of actual professional cello players on youtube instead, I don't need some gay anime fag playing cello only half-decently.
If his only skill is playing the cello, or other instruments, and he's still just a boring unentertaining streamer otherwise, I won't watch him. If he's actually an entertaining streamer, I would watch, regardless of if he plays instruments or not.

Being actually entertaining and able to engage an audience for hours is the most important skill for a streamer, simply because that's what you're going to be doing for 90% of the time. And yes, most of that is natural talent, you either have it or you don't, and not something that can be taught to everyone. Also lol at the thought that Cover is actually trying to teach anyone in their company how to be an entertaining streamer - they have a few naturals who can simply do it, and a lot of deadweights who can't and are just coasting on the anime avatar and the brand buff (take them out of the corp and back into indie 2view hell and see how many have "actual talent" to make it back to the top themselves and how many are simply carried by the brand and the guaranteed fanbase of Holo).

I don't watch 2views because I'm scared it might feel extremely awkward. I can picture the desperation of a girl playing for hours just to see barely anyone watching and a dead chat.

>What does it even mean to be "talented at streaming"?
Streaming is it's own medium.
Comedy comes with prewritten bits. With streaming you have to stay versatile. You're always in reaction mode, so it can't be easily compared to other mediums. Improv would be the closest, though it obviously differs
To be good at streaming means keeping engagement levels high. This involves a couple things.
>variety
Doing a diversity of things to draw in more crowds who prefer different things
>innovation
Like all artists, innovating will generate renown.
Stuff like designing a VRworld full of inside jokes for your fans, or swapping avatars with a coworker to deliberately embarrass each other is inherently intriguing, and people will check it out.
>charisma
Speaking clearly, cultivating a moe persona, providing off-the-cuff remarks and jokes even when there's nothing going on helps develop a character that people can trust and relate to
>no yabs
Nothing that would draw your audience away from you, or filter new members too heavily
>regularity
Don't stream too long, and people will forget about you. Keep an inconsistent schedule, and people won't be able to plan their days to catch your streams.

I haven't watched the guy but all those listed are worthless if he isn't charismatic and a good talker or have a strong personality all those things you listed aren't worth shit unless he's a cutting edge talent in one of those fields.
Let's take the fps example, he might be good but why would I watch him just for this when there are other better players by skill alone? For many the answer miught be literally the Hololive/Holostars brand (Nijisanji in contrast isn't enough to push someone viewership that far up by default) and that's about it.

Cover seems to have a distinctly different screening process than most corpos, hiring more based on more unique talents and factors and what they can bring to the table. The only gen where they all hired popular personalities was JP Gen 3. (Flare was not super popular numbers wise but had a LOT of connections.) Even the latest gens, HoloX and Tempus, had only one member that could be called popular and the rest were 2views and not even vtubers in some cases. Orange dude was even a 1 view.
Anykara actually also hires more obscure talents for their JP branch, but for NijiEN they hired established indie vtubers to populate their first few gens, only doing something different with iluna who aren't all established vtubers but did have the numbers.

Streaming is what they do to get to the endgame
and that endgame isn't streaming.
Once their brand is as massive as Pekora's, Marine's or Aqua's... there's are no reasons to keep streaming as hard as they did.
They are too valuable to waster their voices reacting to a shitty game.

- Omega Sana and Ina were FF14 acquaintances.
- After Pekora's stream, OA made his move and tried to push FF14 as holoEN's main game.
- All the FF14 streams were a fucking disaster. Irys never touched the game again. Ina announced she would never stream FF14 for a stupid reason.
- Irys new year outfit absolute shitshow was the event that burned all bridges with holoEN's direction.
- Calli laughing her ass loud at chat's implication that Omega had anything to do with her work. "Yeah, thanks for the tweets I guess lmao".
- Council is an absolute disaster.
- OmegaAlpha's "goodbye" tweets in January. Gets unpersoned with a grand total of 0 HololiveEN video productions.
- HoloJP takes over (probably A-chan herself). Council and Irys get a new roadmap around their brands. A-chan starts scouting internally for Nodoka.
- Sana didn't feel comfortable anymore, so decided to graduate in February. She would announce it after the 3rdFES. But then Rushia got terminated.
- Tempus RMs announced hiatus in March. Nodoka debuts in April.
- Massive increase of holoEN appearances in holoJP official channel video productions.
- A-chan produces a TEMPUS watchalong in holoEN's official channel. It was the first variety video upload on that channel ever.

Extreme doubt. There's no way Sana's contract would allow her to terminate it so soon after debut.
This whole post reeks of cope, with a pinch of needless Council+Hope hate and an ounce of Tempiss apologist.

Sana made several strange comments in her back hurt stream and that video was later privated. The other talents acted like Sana was fired and kept saying how they had to rush projects for her graduation. The July 31st graduation date would fit with Cover not renewing her contract and they didn't allow any call-ins or video messages.

Sana is childhood friends with Ina and it has been clear for a long time that Ina has been trying to get her main outfit changed. Cover increased the sexualization of Ina's character this year in games/merch/streams and her coughing fits from the spring are the type that are caused by stress. After Cover announced that Sana's contract wouldn't be renewed I believe that Ina got so depressed that she was going to quit and Cover finally agreed to change her main outfit. It won't happen until the spring/summer of next year but this is why Ina has recently been more optimistic. It is also the reason that Kronii has been acting out since she also wants her main outfit changed and is trying to find some way to encourage Cover to agree to it.
