/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

In the period of Jun-Dec of 2022 the following happens in relation to HoloEN
>Viewership ceiling reclines
>Sub growth reclines
>Music vod views reclines

In roughly the same period, the following happens
>Isegye increases their music output on YT
>Tempus drops, mixed collabs happens
>Holo discussions (and non Korean vtubers for that matter) significantly slows down on Korean forums, especially HoloEN discussions

Being one of the most gender-divided society, and mostly English-speaking audience.
KR viewers used to be huge amongst the HoloEN viewership, both within KR itself and westernized gooks living in NA/AU/CA.
And being east-asian, anime aesthetics are well normalized thus they have high demographic ceiling in relation to vtuber contenr.

HoloEN viewership recline during said period are most likely largely due to KR viewers turning heads to local options exclusively.
In which are likely caused by the gender autistic KR viewers/unicorns getting soured by potential mixed collabs/pairing shenanigans within holoEN whilst a local alternative were inclining at the same time.
That being said, isegye does has male interactions as well. However the change here is that now both of them have similar level of potentially unwanted behavior, and the local option ended up being preferred by KR unicorns/viewers.
Note that HoloEN members that used to be KR favorites such as Ina, Kronii, and Bae are either MIA or knee deep on mixed collabs during that period, which helps the argument above.
Koreans are also known to be disciplined in their reps, losing mindshares amongst the KR demographics clues to the slowdown music vod views for HoloEN, and HoloJP in a slightly lesser degree.
Other supporting signs/data is that the members that hasn't been known to have large KR demographics such as Irys and Fauna are inclining or at least aren't showing as much signs of recline as ones who does such as Bae, Kronii, Mumei, and Kiara.

Significant groups of audience changing their target reps also affect how YT Algo promotes Holo content in general, without actual changes in the algorithms itself.
This adds to explain why the numbers has been downhill for the past few months.
