>> No.11938961

No, as it stands we have no reason to think they'd do better than the female talent. Who for the most part are much better than the numbers they are getting. In Japan Niji is the more normal and Holo the more otaku. Doesn't really work as well here as anime isn't normal, they'll just go watch normal streamers. Unless they strike gold at some boyfriend experience I don't see a niche for them or homostars.

Plus they'll be nepotism picks and from what I've seen there male friends are forgettable.

Bruh, they get less view because their fanbase is already fucking small, getting amazing entertainment not gonna get them anywhere as its already show that nijiEN talent is more entertaining that holoEN, holoEN gen 2 even had one of their member taking a break, so yeah, nijisanjiEN male Will likely stuck or go up as nijiEN fanbase really demand a male wave, this is the reason one of nijiID male even getting around 500-600 live view, he speak mostly English and nijiENfan that had no problem watching other branch come and watch him, he even had paypig after he got expose to nijiEN fanbase

Well t b h, we cant say anything yet as they still not here, and we talking about nijifan here, not Holofan how hate males,

Honestly, I think they've got a lot of the same advantages as LazuLight did
A LOT of people were curious just to see the first big non-Holo corporate vtubers, and I think a similar amount (or more) will be very curious to see the first corporate males. It'll depend on them if they can pur those numbers to work, but novelty does a lot of the work early on.

I think the biggest problem is a lack of a talent pool. Most people who audition are going to be failed content creators and literal whos.
Any proven successful people won't sign up for this experiment and will continue streaming and/or making videos.
Males in the west are more successful doing normal facecam streams than niche VTuber stuff.
I don't expect amazing long term success, but they'll probably have a lot of initial interest due to being the first proper go at it in the west.
I think males have a lot more to prove since it's a new concept to most audiences. Women get to coast on CGDC and established anime tropes. Men don't have the same kinds of crutches. So it'll be a steep climb.

In the joke she controls everything sense sure. But right now it is 50% her friends, the continuing additions rather than a 1 or 2 buddies like most pull off make it stand out. A male or mixed gen has a high chance of featuring her friend despite already getting so many a gig.

No. The western scene is stagnant and fully fixated on Hololive (+ Vshojo for the twitch users). Hololive exposure is automatic and immediate; Youtube's algorithm floods you with Hololive clips the moment you get curious about vtubers, even if you actively sought other companies or indies. Most people end up assuming that vtubing = Hololive, and Hololive = vtubing, and that everything else is store brand and low quality by default. Only a small fraction of the audience investigates deeper, and a lot of them still expect to find something just like Hololive. The rest of the industry has only them to fight over.

Nijisanji has a limited presence in the west, they don't have the power to popularize a thing. Nijisanji's male vtubers (or male vtubers of any other affiliation), even if they were stellar, would have to forge an audience organically over time. During this time, Cover could pull the rug from under them whenever they wanted just by releasing a Holostars EN branch, immediately validating male vtubers among the existing western scene.

Lots of indies know each other. Said group has Nijifans to this day, not surprising they would want to try out for Nijisanji. I would not be at all surprised if Elira had encouraged them to try out.

Also there's no way she had an effect on Lazulight or Obsydia hires.
>required knowledge of their past lives
Enna and Millie have alluded to theirs many times starting from debut, it's not surprising coming from them.
No one in the group has exhibited signs of leaving for Niji at the moment so calling anyone confirmed is fucking stupid, see Petra, Nina, Selen, Finana. We can try speculating if we see indie male graduations. We don't know who applied. We don't know what the pool of candidates was; more than likely, it's some of the better indie male talent who aren't big.

If you actually look into it there's a couple somewhat popular indies, other than that it's subjective but you'll probably find someone branching off of the popular ones. I think the main issue is that it's still young in the west and the discussion surrounding it is a lot of "BFE male debuff only fujos and homos watch men twink model get cucked Kuzuha Kanae bro streamer". I heard that pre-Niji's male successes a decent bit of the JP side also believed male vtubers couldn't succeed. And to this day male vtubers are much smaller than female vtubers everywhere outside of Niji"manko"sanji. I think that if they get good streamers, NijiEN will inevitably end up with the biggest EN males next year. They probably won't blow up, but they have the wind on their side.

And either way, Her, Pomu and Rosemi all got in on the same audition, so it's not like she would've had any say there regardless. The main ones are Millie and Enna, and even then I think it was more Millie being a big indie herself and Enna coming along because they were close enough that they did a duo audition (along with her being a good utaite), with them having preexisting friends as a side bonus.
Really, I think people knowing each other is just that the indie scene (especially pre-HoloEN indies) was never that big on the top end and was super collab happy, so there's always a big chance people will have met before as indies.

Currently no real EN company has a male branch for some reason, some of them like Tsunderia actually is open to men and have encouraged men to apply but were flooded with female applicants over males.

Niji is big enough that people will at least give them a chance unlike the 2views on twitch. They also have enough experience to know how to push men.

I think a full male wave for the first one might be for the best because of this kind of thing. Doing 50/50 at the beginning might have split them up, but debuting only one might have put him in a weird spot. Many people would be disappointed because no one can live up to ten different ideas of a good male vtuber at once. It gives more male-male dynamics (no need to worry about people taking something weird because a woman is involved) and more different personalities and variety at once. And I doubt Nijisanji can scoop up 3-4 Hajikis at once, but you never know...

The thing is you can pinpoint where they were able to succeed. Take "EN will never work!" Well the huge success of english clippers and growing EoP audiences showed that was wrong. With the males, the clamouring more seems like small pockets thinking it'd be neat. Are JP males or EN indies gaining ground? Not in any notable way. There isn't actually a demand. A male making it depends on that underdeveloped fujo audience rising up, or someone who can break the barrier becoming anime Ninja/whoever is it right now.

Almost all those women are Hololive members with massive EOP fanbases, and the other 2 were the biggest of the 4 kings era. You can't point to gender as the big factor there.
And you're not completely wrong, but saying it's only [one of the biggest companies in the whole industry] is a weird point to make. Especially when they're main competition is, you know, an all female group. Like yes, theres a female bias (otaku like cute girls, duh), but my point is no one can go "Females only, no one will EVER like a male" like they do for the EN scene, and you'd think they would use the history there as an indication that that's a weird stance to take.

No, you overestimate them. Yume/fujo culture in the west is splintered. Not sure how else to call it. There is no spending culture the same way JP girls do it, it's nowhere near as profitable. There's not enough fans. A fair amount of joseimuke apps that have EN servers, die. Elira even had her favorite boy idol game's EN server die on her (A3!) after she spent so much money and time. They're also loudly volatile instead of quietly. JP fans tend to hide on their locked accounts, whearas Western ones will not hesitate to rake you over the coals publically.
You can point at how popular Chronoir and other boys are in English speaking fanbases, but because anons don't know how fucking massive yume/fujo pandering is in Japan, it seems like a lot in English, but it literally will never come close. You're looking at an ice berg. And no, women getting lots of retweets on shipping memes on Twitter isn't an indicator of a large yume/fujo western fanbase that would want to watch vtubers and support them aside from retweeting borderline lewds of them and going about their day.

There is also the fact that the majority of Nijisanji men, don't actively pander towards these types of female fans as their main content. Some guys do ASMR, some guys do voice acting, some guys do singing and dancing, some do fujobait, but in the end their main content is still consumable for wide audiences. It's why Kuzuha still has 70% of his viewers be men, despite a +10% increase to his female watchers 2020 -> 2021. You can find shippers (female) for any guy, and you open a video sharing his statistics and it's 90% men. Anons keep saying NijiEN males should go target women but that's a surefire way into shoehorning yourself into obscurity. Marketing yourself like that turns away actual female fans as it feels ingenuine. Have them be normal male vtubers who throw out a bait here and there. Female fans can coast forever on a single tweet from a guy to his friends. Or release voice packs and keep the yume pandering to that/membership.

Yeah, it's possible. I would've liked them from the start and maybe it would've been less stressful, but now that these will be the first ones, it's nice to have more variety in introduing EN male vtubers. But generally I think NijiEN is coexisting with males just fine. NijiEN has never avoided men, just that there aren't too many of them and none are in NijiEN. They've often been excited about them. Maybe if there's some crazy flirting accusations their coexistence will be troublesome? But maybe that won't show as bad outside of /here/ if it's cute. Apparently all waves have talked on Discord with their NijiEN senpais pre-debut too, so I think it's likely they'll be fine on that front, they're nice girls. The audience pressure might be a bit much, but a debut is bound to be stressful. If nothing else, they can relate to each other's situation. I hope they'll be fine.

Dude this is where like 60% of fujos like it too. Shounen is one of the most popular genre for fujoshi, just because rivalry -> sexual tension and comradery -> romance are such easy connections to make. Hell, a lot of them don't even like outright gay content in canon, because they prefer to put their own spin on their ships instead of having it handed to them.
You get some outright gay LARPing from nijimales, but most of it is just men being friends with each other and expressing that. That's all fujos need.

>it could work but nothing overt
Well yeah, of course. For an instance, another anon mentioned up there about yumejos on a shonen fanbase, but it works that way for good reasons: in a shonen, the relationship between male characters is well-developed, you have two rivals with dedicated writing to explain how and why they antagonize each other. With a protagonist and their closest ally, there are huge moments of drama where they help or put themselves in danger for one another. By that alone it's enough to hook women in, because 9 out of 10 times a mangaka can make it believable and not feel forced, compared to what happens when the protagonist has to hook up with the main heroine.
>Uhhhhh, I guess she's the only girl who is close enough to the protagonist, and they spoke once or twice so they marry at the end and have three kids lol
>>11952118
Not to say that canon gay couples can't work, because stories with actual men hooking up are super popular as well, but it's that "I know they won't be real" gives them all the blank canvas to let their imaginations go out, like >>11952283 said.
