What is with this overinsistence on lore and backstory with holoEN? Why cant we just have another more grounded gen that actually focuses on quality streamers with good chemistry, instead of these grand character ideas that will end up getting dropped after a few weeks? It all comes off as so pointless

loreshit is there for insane schizoid artists and makes normies slightly more interested. we just have to stick it out for a week or two, by that time their true personality will bloom and we'll have some fun with them.
also omega is pure sex, dont complain about them(her)

If it isn't because this

then it only could be some odd autofellatio of middle/upper management on Cover's part ignoring common sense in favor of gratifying their own opinions/egos of what the EN scape "should" be in their heads.

It could make a ton of sense it's for gacha shit though, that shit is insta-hax to billions with a hot property and Holo would be that.

I would drastically prefer tamer character ideas that get expanded upon through some kind of story streams or animations over this frontloaded info dump that quickly becomes irrelevant and goes from a cosmic council to just a group of five friends
The Haato/Haachama arc is the only thing I’ve seen hololive do that comes close to that

I blame this on capeshit culture.

Some EN manager/higher up is exerting creative control over the debuts to a ridiculous degree, which they can do thanks to the massive success of EN1 that most likely has nothing to do with them.

It would make total sense if they were the omegatranny, literally making the debut of the vtubers they manage about ME ME ME, even giving themselves a character design.
Its pathetic and super self involved.

Omegachad is the producer, not manager. At this rate the guy is going to get shat on in the future for things he isn't even responsible for

Almost certainly it's the omegadudette. Anyone thinking that the Japanese management had anything to do with this beyond signing off on the project because the EN producer they hired convinced them it's a good thing apparently missed the everything from Sonic furries to RWBY to modern MCU fans, lore bullshit like this is exactly what's been popular in certain Western circles (read: tumblr) for the past decade or so.

the fact that there's so much buildup with their lore bullshit and then they end up dropping it so fast is what's jarring about it, anons

kek it literally sounds like fucking shitty Amerimutt YA fantasy or something. which is also pretty woke. why do Amerimutts try to bring a shitty lore into everything? it only makes a stupid circle jerking fanbase. rrats are also stupid lores.

well debuts are usually a huge dump of information on what a chuuba is expected to do and who they are, of course theyre going to jam the lore in there too.
