Why don't they just hire new seiyuus for the vtubers that refuse to stream? Clearly the person behind it isn't important to the continued popularity of the character when the person isn't even streaming.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 17 13:31:12 2023 No.41175537 It's pretty crazy how the poor management of Kizuna AI established this strict norm that vtubers aren't like other fictional characters with different voice actors over time, but have to be personas of a specific person.

The Kizuna Ai replacement failed so horribly that no vtuber company has tried it again but Cover puts so much money into promoting hololive characters for selling merch they most likely do have this option in their contract. There will be a time when they become tempted to replace the VA of someone who has graduated and despite knowing that it will almost certainly fail they will try it.

That would be pretty funny.

And especially if they replaced Rushia's voice, since Peter Puma would have a meltdown.

Thought about this myself. My bet is that the fans would riot and it would further damage the company. I was even thinking that, say if Gura retires, Hololive could just debut another shark-based vtuber to take her place in Myth. Doesn't have to sue the same model. Same with Sana, a new Space Councillor or whatever; but it'd still elicit a messy response from fans. So HoloEN has no choice but to look like swiss cheese with the Sana gone and Gura not streaming. Pretty funny considering in any other company when a position is vacant, it is filled up by a new employee but right now Sana's seat in the council is empty and will forever be.

They TRIED this with Kizuna Ai, it was what helped kickstart her decline in popularity. Given that EN vtubing isn’t that fully developed, and that the meta is to copy the tactics of traditional streamer (I’m not saying that it’s *just* fleshtubing with an anime avatar, just that EN fleshtubers are a more relatable template than JP vtubers for a lot of EN vtubers), replacing the rm would go over even worse in EN than JP, I imagine (and it already goes over poorly there).
You’re absolutely right; vtubing relies so much on the creators, and most of the public actions of management related to HoloEN seem to have made the branch worse, not better.
I wouldn’t be surprised if two or three years from now, when/if HoloEN is dead, that it comes out that a lot of the girls were saying things similar to what we were saying but got brushed off by JP as wanting “undeserved money and attention” (ie more investment).
