Because "idol culture" is Japanese corpo-fascist hogwash, just another flashy distraction to keep the working class in the clutches of consumerism. Westerners aren't always treated with kiddy-gloves, so they burn out more quickly, and begin fostering the righteous kind of hatred against this zero-substance freakshow earlier than the Japs.

I was part of the underground idol scene back in the early 2010s, and Kiara wasn't liked very much then either.

This is large discussion in idol otaku culture in Japan and why vtubers have sort of replaced the AKB style of idols, in some sense.

A lot of genuine oldfag idol otakus consider every idol after social media became prevalent, to be an illegitimate idol. As in, social media ruined people's perception of idols because they no longer had a media/public filter and could no longer be an ideal.

How is that a stupid take when even western celebrities talked about the fact that being a celeb lost a certain aura of mystery thanks to the internet and especially social media. Now even non celebrities become celebrities just thanks to social media and they dont even need to do anything, just pretty much exist. Apply that to old school idol culture. Same shit.
Most of Vtuber idols are complete hacks, they cant sing they cant dance, and cant even play video games decently, which is funny because they do it 90% of the time in between their "idol" duties.

1) Japanese standards of idol don't fly in the rest of the world.
2) 99% of the time they're not idols, they're online content creator entertainers.
3) She fails at #2, hard.

She'd have been better off applying to a JP branch and sticking to there; occasionally doing a collab with EN, but generally being a JP talent. I feel like she most likely did do that, but failed even there, so they tossed her to the EN side as a "Eh, what do we have to lose on this experiment?"

Watching Wawa since March - April 2021. Kiara has massive filters in place that requires conditions to enjoy her, which is why she can't gain a higher following. This is merely my opinion. Forgive the length.

1/ Menhera has tarnished her reputation. She has gotten her shit together by the end of 2021 and the start of 2022. Her menhera is now limited to vagueposting about work and her health and the occasional self-doubt. She has a long history of failure and humiliation has led to the self-esteem issues. Hololive is her last shot and she will do what it takes to last.
2/ By Myth and Hololive EN standards, Kiara is a social creature. She does frequently talk about being kind of introverted, but compared to how lethargic a lot of Hololive EN members are that is difficult to see. Her extroversion is not necessarily because she wants to be that, but because if she wasn't then Myth would just keep their collective heads down and do their own things instead of coming together. This role she was assigned to, combined with her natural European outspokenness and her Germanic autism about being honest leads to her expressing things none of the others would ever say. - for example, calling out management and the talents when required.
3/ This European nature wards off others. Wavering and compromising on positions is very in line with her upbringing. We have seen it in the various cameos Mamatori has had over the years. It makes her come across as difficult and obnoxious. The "ME, ME, ME." meme is routed in another Germanic quality: Keep the conversation focused on yourself, or how something relates to you.
4/ Saviorfags make up the core of KFP. Actively joining her audience means putting yourself in their ranks. KFP was my biggest hurdle in joining. The flipside is that their extreme loyalty to her has resulted in extreme loyalty returned by Wawa. She will try her best to get to know you even if you aren't donating.
5/ Her choices in games, her European timeslots filters active viewers from NA.

Once you understand the first four points and overcome them, you'll find that Orange woman is in the top echelon of Hololive EN. You don't have to like her, but it's hard to deny that she is one of the few who actually gives a fuck and appreciates the lottery win she was given.
