I just think it's particularly easy to conflate valid criticism with anti-posts because antis take said critique to the extreme. (ie. Kiara talks more than the others during collabs ergo she's self-centered). No one wants to deal with that argument other than bored people, so people shut it down, and most people presenting said critique will then either back down and not waste their energy (and in the future not bother), or they reveal themselves as an anti. For instance, at the end of this post I'm just going to throw out one thing that I find negative about each girl, and I guarantee someone will take offense and try to call me out on it.
It's a bit similar to >reddit in a way where people are morel likely to hugbox their oshi, however unlike that place, people are very eager to point out flaws in other fanbases, rather than the streamer themselves.
That being said, there's not too much that can be said negatively about the girls anymore, as they've all (for the most part) worked hard to either fix their problems, or balance them out, and for what it's worth I don't think EVERY negative trait needs to be worked on/fixed. No one is perfect, and many of their "flaws" are just things that make them enjoyable people, but things you get frustrated with every now and then.
>Mori is still stuck timelooping herself with her roommate's responsibilities and cannot find a work-life balance because her self-esteem is so low that she feels the only way she can validate herself is through her work
>Ame's pride gets in the way of receiving valid criticism on the spot, usually deflecting it. She's also too afraid of "scaring" her co-workers during collabs outside of her immediate gen, which creates a weird dissonance.
>Gura overthinks and gets herself stuck in a negative feedback loop constantly. Still suffers from impostor syndrome and hasn't really acknowledged how big she's become.
>Kiara's earnestness and willingness to speak without a filter usually comes back to bite her in the ass, creating criticism and doomposting that would otherwise be withheld. For example, if she had just stayed quiet about the VSJ collab and just done it as a surprise collab, the entire fallout on reddit wouldn't have happened and she wouldn't have found herself between a rock and a hard place trying to please both sides of the argument
>Ina is on the opposite end of the spectrum from Kiara and tries too hard to filter herself, to the point where you can see she has a lot to say, but doesn't. She should be more willing to speak her mind, because while she has less experience streaming than the others (sans Mori) it's clear she has the most life experience out of them, and a unique perspective.
