Niji panders heavily to twitter and Vshojo panders heavily to lgbtpedos, while Hololive dominates the general audience that's put off by abrasive talents like Froot, Kyou, and Finana. Furry is the only untapped niche I see left that a corpo could commit to and possibly join the billionaire club. Also, I doubt that any of the other general audience corps competing with Hololive will ever become big and profitable on the level of these three.

It's unironically CGDGT, as much as schizos will refute this frothing at the mouth or use it to shit on males or whatever. You can get the base Nijisanji EN experience from any 2view indie shitter on twitch. There wasn't much that did vtubing in the particular way that Hololive does it, especially when a lot of things antithetical to Hololive are seen a virtuous in the west (for both good and for ill). There have been attempts by other copros to do it like Hololive (Kawaii, Idol, etc.) and some that have carved out their own niches (Phase), but I think the secret sauce is still leaning more towards the idol side of things.

I really do think that's primarily why Holostars is still dragging so far behind the girls. They need to reign that shit in and push more CBDCT, because quite literally no one is doing that. K-pop stans are just sitting there not being pandered to, and that's like the one primarily female demographic that's got money to spend.

As far as the male side goes, I'm not sure exactly what the market for Niji is at the moment other than a mishmash of the chinese fujos still left (which is actually a complete misnomer but I don't know what else to call them and that's what everyone else calls them) and whatever the audience was pre-Luxiem. But I'm pretty sure k-pop stans aren't in there in any significant numbers with how Niji EN male talents generally operate (i.e. messy nerds and not actual idols).

At any rate, I think youtube is still the play for current holostars. On the grand scale they're relatively closer to the idol side than Niji EN males are. They kinda just have an identity crisis at the moment, and committing to anything would be better than this homunculus mishmash of direction.

Close but not really.
When the China fiasco happened, HoloEN literally just debuted that month to massive success.
With CN's revenue being almost ID tier at the time(and that was way before ID got their boost from their first 3D at Holofes), choosing to purge the CN branch(and depart the chinese market as per the ultimatum the mainland goblins gave) to save international goodwill was a no-brainer.
With CN gone(they weren't high earners anyway), ID being ID, and EN as the last overseas branch with actual high potential for the future, investing in EN massively is another no brainer move.

Gura

and to a lesser extent Cali, though shes more of a Japanese thing, she still hit hard at launch.

Gura was a meme lord with a huge following pre debut, and she really knew how to stroke the algorithm. say what you will about her work ethic, that girl has been youtubing since she was 15... almost a decade by the time she debuted for hololive, she knew how to work the system. So she exploded durring the pandemic when everyone was locked in their homes watching youtube. furthermore Gura sang a bunch of songs in her kareoke which hit non-traditional vtuber fans, giving her a music boost

Throw in cali, who while a horrible streamer just kept throwing banger after banger of solid "amature" rap music out there. it was talented shit. and it gave her a HUGE music boost, which drew a lot of eyes to hololive. probably more then gura did (from outside traditional sources)

that one two punch was what did it.

It's their pattern. Their success is always based on agility, not power, and their prosperity is tentative 10 out of 10.

HoloJP created a market for Hololive English, myth surpassed the expectations the existing foreign holo audiance had, and started a new era for vtubing.
The influence they had on the industry was so great, everyone who came after them had to base their branding as "NOT-hololive". Which is where the talent freedom and whole NijiEN fandom spawns from.
Hololive mentained and connected the culture of three branches, Myths success helped JP absolutely dominate the local market. In turn, JPs popularity enabled cover to upscale the business and provide good opportunity to their talents, all while trying to stay away from drama and building a internal culture where talents are treated well.
Meanwhile everyone else just indulged in the existing western streaming market, and failed to evolve their culture.
Anycolour did not try to understand their western audiance, did not bother to have a competent management, and did not have a long term plan.
They didn't bother as things were obviously going south in the branch, resulting in the current situation.
Vshoujo was too high on its talent freedom propoganda, got in too many controversies, their talents couldn't keep their shit to themselves. Resulting in their branding being poisoned.
Couple that with them being in a whole different ecosystem which doesn't care as much about vtubers, it's not possible for them to compete head to head with HoloEN, much less Holo as a whole.

I think it's only possible to believe this if you're literally retarded and have never actually listened to music in your life. Lucky for her, there are a lot of people like that. She was always the weakest part of Myth but making music made her unique, even if the music she was making was really bad.

Hololive literally raised the western vtubing scene from the ground up, they invested in it when no else cared about it. Before HoloEN debuted the best you had was melody jacking off in Chaturbate, or disorganized twitch streamers with anime avatars doing the same shit they're doing now. They saw western demand for their product, accepted those foreigners into their fanbase and gave them their very own branch. If Hololive did not invest in the West Nijisanji wouldn't have made their English branch or Vshojo wouldn't have been formed.

ID1's first performance in Holofes was a huge boost as well, ID1 went hard there and wowed the audience, Moona especially gained a lot of attention just from her first live performance of High Tide there.

Overall, it is a good summary of Hololive.
I think the deciding factor for Cover to create an English branch was ultimately the amount of views translated clips on YouTube were getting, the amount of them that were being spawned every day, and last but not least - Kiryu Coco's popularity, not just amongst JP, but internationally.
I think they were flirting with the idea of having an international branch for a while, but only after seeing so much demand in real-time did they decide to skip the middleman, and go straight to HoloEN instead of having either half-and-half, or drip feeding translated clips to the western audience.

Hololive: imo I see majority of holomems as cute/funny, emulates a lot of slice-of-life vibes from their interactions, also good PR and merch strat, YAGOO being the most wholesome guy. Also each gen usually has good group dynamic and don't just merge into a singular glob of vtubers you can't name
Nijisanji: has a lot of banter, sometimes too much for my taste. There's a lot more freedom to do shit like collabs but at the same time they can't do giga big projects like an irl sololive and so on. They thrive off of multiplayer games but besides that the talents themselves can't make interesting content by their lonesome. Pomu was the hardest carry and they lost her
Vshojo: ironmouse hard carry, very clippable, contagious laughter, but at this point majority of the vids that I've watched seem a bit samey. Also feels like there's only mouse and her friends whenever I hear vshojo

Because the behavior the girls are expected is basically 1950s American Women. Still have some of that girl power stuff and moxie here and there, but for the most they are feminine, largely apolitical, friendly, funny and most of all aren't ashamed to be skinny and cute.

Ina is consistent enough withbher content that she has a solid following from drawfags and nerds who relate. It doesn't mean she's weak though, she's just plateau'd
Ame overall has the biggest contributions imo to myths success with her stellar peeformance in getting shit done but lately it seems she's lost a bit of that drive as now everyone else in her gen have gone and started doing their own niche things
Gura is just gura. She's very marketable to kids and adults alike, has enough sense to ride the sponsorship deal route and spammed a whole fuck ton of projects back to back solidifying her mark as a mascot
Same with Mori except hers is more on the musical side of things. She's tapped into her rap/hiphop niche which took in a lot of attention from the more streetwise population of japan hence the ambassador perk with gura
Kiara imo is the most likely to graduate first out of all of them as the main reason for her to get into hololive was to interact with her oshis which can't really take you that far into the industry. Right now she seems to be jumping from collab to collab without doing much else after she's given up on trying to be a kpop-like icon (because honestly her singing voice is just too mid)
