Mori has a strong on screen presence that commands attention. The rest get by, but from an entertainment perspective they're all side characters. Plucky kid shork. Wifely tako. Annoying orange. Ame. They just don't bring as much energy.

Gen5 has both Polka and Nene leasing the clipfag charge, while Botan and Lamy bring up the cozy rear for those who like more relaxed streams. And together they're a force to be reckoned with, while EN suffers from too many cooks in the kitchen.

Cantaloupes sat around whining about not having persona permissions for an hour or so in between publicizing her war against existential uncertainty. Like it or not, she'll never be irrelevant.

Below average for holo standards despite having the most competitive auditions.
I don't blame scouting or gen5 for being mediocre its just something that happens when your ticket to success is guaranteed.
For every Pekora that applies to Holo there will be 100 girls also applying for a free paycheck. Many of which have better credentials.

The sad truth is that many of the big vtubers wouldn't be able to pass auditions for the companies that they made popular in the first place.

I love their relationship between each other a lot and their friendship looks genuine.

Honestly the story if them recovering from Aloe's graduation and Delta coming out of that is one of the greatest untold stories in vtubing.

Let's start with the remaining members. They were absolutely crushed by it. They knew her home situation and they knew how much being his Hololive meant to her. But they didn't know her as well as they thought they did. She wore a mask and when it all crashed down it broke. And Aloe did what she had always done when things got to hard. She ran away.

Gen 5 then had to pick up the pieces. They don't blame her anytime they bring her up you can tell they wish she was with them right now. They had to go on but it also made them closer. They struggled and worked through it. They became closer. I don't have enough space to write all the things they accomplished. However I will say this when Coco graduated they were the ones who stood up and said we will send Kaichou off properly. You denied our request to send Aloe off with a goodbye we won't let that happen again. They've all grown so well and stand out on their own and have really stepped up in the uncertain times after Coco's graduation.

As for the 5th member of Gen 5. Her road was hard and is still bumpy but she has proven time and again it wasn't a mistake that Cover hired her. She really is impressive. She had 0 intention of ever coming back or vtubing. Yet due to a series of events that happened to occur at critical moments and her own motivation she was able to return. She for a while was her own manager and was able to release a ton of merch almost all by herself, worked on recordings and acquiring a Live 2d. She eventually hired herself a manager because she is bad at time management and will literally schedule 12 hours of meeting if left alone. Nearly 1 year ago she thought her life was over and now she is accomplishing everything she dreamed of doing. She is able to make a living and support her mother. KusoDad was defeated. The Triangle is about to celebrate a birthday she thought she would never see on August 11th. It's not always easy but things are looking great.

The 5 are doing well for themselves. They all struggled but they are all making their mark on the industry in their own ways.

Easily the gen with most chemistry. Almost all of them play a lot of different games than just minecraft and apex. They are also all hardworking. I find Lamy to be very underappreciated as she is pretty talkative in zatsudan and hold her own. Because she doesn't have shitty meme going for her other than being alcoholic and lawnmower, EOP dismisses her as boring.

>> No.7489299

Easily my fav gen overall, they all bounce each other really well and it's obvious that what they said it's true, they definitely knew and developed a relationship before debut and it just kept growing from there.

I watch all of them but mostly Botan and all the others from there,Lamy is definitely the most comfy in terms of being quite quiet unless she's screaming like a fucking crow in horror games, Polka and Nene are funny, Nene more on the cute dorky side like a little sis or even a daughter, Polka in the clown of the class, very loud side.

Overall they're all a good team that can bounce each other well, not gonna compare them to EN since the laters + ID [specially Ollie] have the plus of being able to speak english, which is definitely going to attrack more people since they can understand wtf they're saying.

They are pretty average and since holodex ain't translating everything. I can't be bothered to doing my reps in knowing what they said.

Either way, Botan is about as skilled as an average FPS player or so I was told.

Nene is just motivated but then again being ignored in three different auditions make her the better version of Kiara.

Lamy may as well play the 'alcoholic' part a bit more. Do those host bar spreads for all I can. Play Vahalla or something.
