Also if you bothered to watch him instead of spouting nonsense you'd know the director and staff were happy with how things turned out and are glad Astel's ideas help them learn how to handle new things (because it helps all the other talents too), and said he was looking forward to working with Astel again.

Sorry, it's my ESL ass, but it's 35% from what's left from post-youtube cut (70%). So it's technically 50% split between the company and the talent. You can negotiate the cut by raising one to decrease the another on contract renewal apparently, at least on holo. dunno with other corpo.

Anon, even Holostars fans knew if there was ever a StarsEN they would overshadow JP, because the EN market is just way bigger. Lots of people who watch Tempus won't watch StarsJP purely because of the language barrier.

As for the JP market, NijiJP has such a chokehold on it that it's not just Holostars, there are very little male vtubers who can compete with them. And now that Niji is pushing its members to do idolshit, they're pushing Holostars out of the one box they could have succeeded in too, because they were already popular long before Holostars got decent traction.

Not to mention, unlike Niji, Holostars don't benefit from their brand name. The main Hololive audience will not watch special Holostar events, some of them don't even know there's a male branch.

That's a consequence of the early decision to ban any association between Hololive and Holostars.

The only advice I can give to them is to look at Roberu, because he is one of them and he got out of 3view territory. They need to collab more with other chuubas that are indies or from other companies, they need to get out of their comfort zone, they need to capitalize on things and moments that make them more popular.

Roberu is popular despite being a Holostar, there were nips who watched him and didn't even realize that he was a Holostar. The others will have to do the same thing and transcend their "Holostar" label and be seen as just chuubas, chuubas that are part of the broader JP chuuba community. Bawically they will have to LARP as indies who get support from making friends with others, since being part of their company isn't giving them a viewership boost.

>Aruran doesn't really get new viewers from his collabs
I think he's trying a new angle where he hosts gameshows with JP and EN participants like the two recent telephone game collabs. He's not the dominant personality but the streams are on his channel so that's where the viewers need to be to watch it. They've been good streams so maybe he'll get a bump.

Cover is not going to drop the JP boys, quite the opposite. It's clear that since the EN boys (and Roberu) are popular, the management has now been fully convinced that Holostars can be popular. They used to have the soft cushion of lowered expectations (back in the day even people /here/ believed that male holos could never make numbers and were doomed), and that's gone. They have been un-blackpilled and are going to push the JP boys harder, as if they were brand new vtubers trying to put their best foot forward. Time will tell if that pays off or not.

It's not just Vesper and it aint even just about the money. It's about the drama period. Since Tempus debut it's been nonstop fights and girls taking different sides while fans and trolls argue and insult eachother.
And now several talents have taken non stop breaks, had to have a cover issued statement, and Tempus has had yab after yab.
I am positive cover JP is probably wondering if keeping Tempus around is really worth it, the fact that they cut Rushia loose when she made so much money means it does not matter how popular they get if they continue being a headache.

Basically whenever you accept investment you accept their involvement in managing the company.
The investors only care about making their money back plus profit.
So short term revenue is the only concern especially in the lead up to an IPO which is when investors tend to cash out.
It's not unusual for early investors to basically destroy a company in order to get a high IPO price then run off and leave the new stockholders scrambling to try and put the company back together.

My god, just give up.

Male vtubers lack any real mainstream audience.
The girls are different since they can "roleplay" a anime character, homos can't do that.
You know, most of comedy anime/manga got a full fermale cast for a reason, the males are for self insert romcoms and action stuff.
So a girl vtuber can easy do the comedy cute girl doing cute things in random game, but a male vtuber can't pull a damn goku do goku stuff in random game.
A "broVtuber" is just a normal dude streamer with a cringe and pointless anime avatar.

The only roleplay and identity for a male vtuber is being a homosexual hotdude for the fujos, a high income but also small and super saturated market.

I mean, i do get cover trying, vtubing is still a "new" market with surely a untapped audience, but they need to experiment for that, not put out more of the same.

Vtubing is highly sexualized with many sexy/beautiful avatars and such. It makes sense why most straight men won’t give male Vtubers the time of day. As much as a lot of faggots and women here want to claim otherwise. There has to be a draw to a male vtuber much greater than the avatar or whichever corpo the male vtuber is in for a lot of straight dudes to even give them a chance. Personally I’m not going to watch male vtubers because I only got in to watching Vtubers in general off of cute/hot anime avatar women doing whatever. It was something new that I couldn’t get anywhere else but anime (even then it is not the same). If there aren’t any anime girls streaming that I like, but there are 8 anime guys streaming. I’d just tune out of the guys and watch fucking MoonMoon or Jerma or Disguised Toast or Ster or Penta or Buddha or Oney… etc. etc. It’s just the way it is for a lot of people.

I imagine many do. I’m under the impression that Vtubing really has gone mainstream, or at least isn’t the tiny exclusive hobby it was before.

I just think that as Vtubing is reaching or has reached a more mainstream audience it will attract mainstream viewers. For instance. MoonMoon jokes a lot about Vtubers. Not always making fun, but giving props to them for being able to do what they do and get good money from it. He even watched Korone’s “English only or you will End” stream clips and was saying pepeloni pizza etc. Pewdiepie has acknowledged Vtubers, has even made an avatar I believe. OTV has streamed as/with Vtubers. the Vtuber net is wide and is getting wider etc.

There's a reason why the most famous facecam streamers are males while the most famous vtubers are female. Guys don't need to hide their faces to be popular if they are entertaining but people don't give a shit to real girls because they look just like a piece of meat to the large audience(males).

All a male vtuber needs to be popular is stop with fucking streaming or at least make your channel focused on 10-20mins videos.
