Golden era ended with Holocaust and the loss of 82% of the old archives, of which less than half has been recovered.

Then the next era ended with Holomyth bringing the EOP normies in.

We are at the start of Hololive's third era, ie the ultimate cringe arc and the despair preceding 5 or 6 graduations (likely Haato, Shion, Miko, Choco, Ayame and Aqua) before FBK graduates in pure disgusts and brings the final yab ruinning Cover's remaining reputation.

Then will come the last age when Hololive is a shadow of it's former self with little to no growth expectation. Some will try to hold on to the failed dream, like Kiara and Pekora, but others will start leaving on their own volition seeking better opportunities.
Eventually Sora herself will quit in tears, people will realize just how shit everything is at that point compared to how it started half a decade before, Cover will dissolve and every remaining talent will go their own way.

Case studies will be made on just how much of a fuck up Hololive ended up being.

Golden age was og kizuna ai.

Silver age was hololive up to the great censoring/Holocaust.

Bronze age was the holos exploding in western popularity, en being debuted and the rise of English groups like Tsunderia and vshiujo. The great western expansion was cucked by Coco's departure and hololive en's growth will stall out compared to native en agencies.

From here on out it'll be a slow decay as a few more graduations occur and new talent applies to other agencies either for greater freedom or more competent management. The attempt at tapping the Chinese market will fail completely and cover will have forced Coco put for nothing. These are the end times.

The true dark ages will occur afterward, where everyone left tries to bail out a sinking ship despite holos dropping out for better agencies one by one. En agencies and nijisanii will rise from the ashes and attain glory through attrition. Cover will join dotlive in vtubing history as a now disgraced catalyst for its growing global pooularity. They'll still exist but as a niche small time operation that's only good as a low standard side hustle or an entry point for new talent who aren't talented enough to get a better gig.

Whether we were in the Golden Age or not, this is easily the beginning of the end. Whatever your thoughts on Coco, bottom line is that persistent anti attack has thoroughly succeeded in bringing down one of the biggest, most established vtubers and nobody could do a thing about it. I don't see how it gets better from here. Even if Cover does try to go back to the Chinese market, any CN chuubas or even JP chuubas who make any real effort to reach out to CN will be harassed in the same way by vengeful JP/EN autists. Also, while the bugs who wanted Coco graduation only will stop, the spam will only increase from those bugs who pledged to bring down Hololive, because they are emboldened and bug mentality is to follow through with a stated goal endlessly in order to save face, as we saw here. And the worst part is that this is the fate of all good things. This is just human nature and entropy, all good productive things in the world must inevitably be withered away by parasitism.

Golden Age ended with copyright strikes. Silver Age ended with EN debut and EOP flood. Currently in Bronze era. If Coco launches her own company, or if her roommate mirrors her existing success, or does the same with a new incarnation, that might trigger a Diaspora era of Hololive talent jumping ship for independence or more competent, less restrictive management.

Gachikoi pandering after sankisei debuts was Hololive's faustian bargain. They brought in loads of gachikoi meaning supacha and fan content which in turn made them explode in popularity but it also meant increasingly more schizos in the fanbase, increasingly more retarded restrictions aimed to please them and increasingly more antis. Neither the talents (who are not professionals in any way and half of whom haven't signed up for this shit having debuted when it was considered to be more of a hobby) nor management can deal and the entire thing is becoming unhinged. Was it ever going to last like this even without Zhangs kicking the door in? Golden era of Hololive was late 2019 to mid 2020, but even then it was trading long time stability for rapid growth there and then. Things are becoming less and less fun around here.

Kson clearly knew shenanigans were afoot inside Cover over three months ago as she increased her streaming on Mildom and even opened memberships on her old YouTube channel that practically every one of her fans already knew about.

She was laying the foundation for a voice outside Hololive's walled garden, but not just for herself. Tatsunokos would have found her regardless; no this preparation and then a month of collabs post announcement before graduation is to ensure every fan base knows about the situation and connects the dots.

From now on if any holo gets "graduated" just look to her twitter or catch a stream and see what new tuber she's recommending. Through her sacrifice she's forged a safety net for all our oshi.

It really depends.

If Hololive goes on in the same path, there's still plenty of room to grow and become an even bigger phenomenon. Sure, a few "casualties" in the way are always going to be expected.

But, If there is this huge turn around and this really happened because of the chinese, as some of the rumors point out, I could see that becoming a point of no return for Hololive. Going forward in such case, a lot of good faith put on the agency would be lost forever, making them seem like just puppets of chink investors and shareholders.

People have short memories, as long as they're not immediate selfdoxxing trainwrecks they'll easily rise above their previous gen as more mainstream attention is gathered.

Hololive is a massive company with an immense fan base at this point. They're well beyond being "on the rise". Even if they lost a lot of fans over this, there will be enough of a cushion left for them to land on and pick themselves up. Most of Hololive's fans joined well after the whole Taiwan thing, so they don't have as much of emotional reaction to this.

Unlike the Aloe situation which completely stalled gen 5's momentum, Coco will get a goodbye stream which will be a massive event that everyone will gather around. That combined with an official announcement for EN2 will continue to boost Hololive's numbers.
