Rin Penrose of IdolEN says many of Gen 1 were scouted

[Anonymous No.]

It seems like many of IdolEN were scouted instead of applied and weren't actively seeking a corporation at the time.
Why don't other companies work in this capacity? It seems like a much better way to get a type of streamer you're looking for instead of the other way around.

What makes you think they don't? All vtuber nepotism hires are talents being "scouted" after being recommended by friends.

No wonder Gen 1 was so good. Wonder how many eyes you have to find these people and sit through their content to decide they'd be a fit.

I wanna cum in Rins hair so fucking much bros
>>40340452 exactly, so many people treat nepotism like a dirty word but in reality it's neutral, it's just the safest option most of the time to let in someone who another person you already can trust can vouch for, especially with entertainment

They realized with IdolHE that auditions don't always get you solid talents.

Not many if you treat it like a job. One person could go through 5+ short streams a day

Because big corpos are well known enough that even indies without a chance in hell will still apply for a shot and small corpos rarely have the man power to scout out new talents or just try to copy big corpo methods

A dedicated "scout" (anyone trustworthy in management) could watch hundreds and pick out the promising ones in a few days.
Hololive famously doesn't do this. Most audition vids they receive are watched for a couple seconds or not at all. And Vshojo's auditions are fake.
That's why there were so many really good tubers available for IdolEN and Phase Connect.

An 8 hour work day of watching two hour long streams from nobodies all in the hopes of finding the diamond in the rough

And yet if I ask for recommendations for new chuubas here despite all the autism I get told to watch the same five chuubas because sharing a 2view or 1view that's decent ruins the groomers chances

People are very adverse to Hololive fans. They don't want to risk bringing that fanbase in. People on this board are generally bad, but I'll say I found most YouTube vtubers through here by lurking. For some reason people on this board have a high aversion in venturing out of their general.

Ypu don't need to watch all 2 hours to tell if they are any good and you probanly can use /#/ magic to segregate the ones that have good engagement with their chat

You have people like Amiya that apparently never streamed until that role. Raw numbers can be deceiving.

Sana was literally the only time a Hololive nepohire was a mistake and that's because unlike every single other member they hired like that she had almost no streaming experience. Since HoloEN is supposed to be the "streamers" branch why the fuck did Cover hire someone whose number of streams pre-Hololive probably don't even reach the 2 digits?

Like how it happened with Tempus and is starting to happen with Tempus 2: Tempus Again?
