I only got to know vtubers this year. So I have no idea how this sub reacted to it at that time.

The race was close between Korone and Fubuki.

Then Gura Gawr without much effort and in a few weeks stole the 1st place.

I wonder how Korone and Fubuki fans felt when this happened.

I don't know anything about how Japanese fans felt, but I do know that people went to Fubuki's chat to talk shit about how Gura got there first. As someone who can actually speak English, I'm still curious as to what particular aspect of Gura it is that people liked enough to get her to so many subs so incredibly fast.

Lolicons? THAT many?

You know we have actual records of this which show Korone was never the most popular Holo streamer, she was a meme whose channel was boosted because her name is similar to Corona that retarded tourists from South America subscribed to and never watched because she said "eekum bokum" and then a bunch of equally retarded Americans subscribed to tell her to go to sleep on hour 30 of her 45 hour grind of a game that should take 10 hours at most
Coco was popular for like 3 months, but at least they were an important 3 months

I guess some dogfuckers didn't get the memo. The year is 2023 and we hate all homoshill sluts here. Just because its Fubuki doesn't mean i have to be nice to her. Stop using her as a meat shield as my oshi doesn't owe this b*tch anything. Marine? Pekora? yeah i would be nice to them, but why should i care about Fubuki?

No one was mad. Gura literally inclined the entire company. Gura did what Kobo did for the ID branch, just on a bigger scale. It's no coincidence the entire EN branches sub growth also declined as Gura steamed lesser and less. Gura put EN on the map and helped JP gain more subs.

I generally been trying to figure this out myself OP as I started watching in February. If v-tubering is even partly like real world idoling/modeling than it is highly completive and there are v-idols who do keep track behind the scenes. Holo-girls might handle this better than other places but some things leak out: like Bae being depressed about not get a million subs; AkiRose depression partly being tied to her sub growth (which was still impressive at the time); Kobo not expecting her growth, etc.

With Gura hitting a million the only things I know is that Gura felt a lot of guilt and avoided cerebrating for a long time; the fans cerebrated way more than the company did. With Cover it feels like a wired mix of acknowledging and refusing to acknowledge (for example Gura still hasn't met Yagoo and she been where she is for years now). As for idols I'm not sure: Fubuki's been cool to Gura; can't tell with Korone as she dodges meet ups; Kiara and Matsuri has acknowledged latter milestones and think Gura should let herself be proud; Mori's was with Gura when the million happened and also might have experience the same hesitation like Gura when she hit two million and suddenly decided to dial back the celebration. Don't know about the JP fans but with many of JP Holo idols if there was resentment it got lost on meeting or getting to know Gura. Whoever is left and number counts behind the scenes likely feel differently about Gura though.

When this happened, "fans" went to Fubuki's stream to tell her that Gura hit 1 million first. It was just one of several embarassments that these "fans" have done in the name of Gura, like bashing Iofi for not translating everything in a JP/EN/ID Among Us collab where Gura lost big time. I think the only good that came from this was how bad Brittany Venti got trashed when she claimed people only like Gura because they are pedos. She still has not recovered.

At that time Global and /hlg/ were on /jp/ as /vt/ didn't exist yet and they were basically enemies at that point. You know (or maybe you in fact, don't know) how when Tempus came about the new Tempus fans wound up using their own thread instead of the established StarsJP thread? Yeah that happened with holoEN vs holoJP as well, and holoEN doing so incredible in Fall 2020 and bringing in tons of newfags who all sat in their own thread, definitely ate away at the insecurities of the holoJP fans at the time.

Hell that gulf still exists to a fair degree today, /hlg/ is still back there on /jp/ although I feel like a lot of their ilk are in /#/ nowadays.

Also I forgot to say, basically what happened was some numberfags went over to /hlg/ and gloated about Gura beating out all the JPs like nonstop rubbing it in. /hlg/ users had been hopeful Gura wouldn't get 1mil first and didn't like taking that L of course, and I think echoes of that still exist today.

False, streamers and vtubers as well definitely do care about the numbers, even if they tell they don't. Numbers are literally the metric which defines how well they are doing, and how is it gonna affect their livelihood. So, telling that "people do not care about the numbers" is baffling, when their whole existence depends on it.

Honestly in the long run it was to the benefit of everyone that Gura got there first.
If one of the JP members got there first, there would be some mild internal seething of who deserved what that is inevitable for any streamer, but with Gura coming in and taking it, well it doesn't matter, nobody cares about number 2 if dozens of others also get to 1 million.
It must have been awful for Gura though, nobody wants to suddenly come in and be better received then their own heroes, and to have your own fans shit on them

Which seems a bit ridiculous to me cause someone like and in Gura's position would be key to reaching out to those international markets at least on the EN side. Likely it's a larger V-tuber issue.

Regardless the fact that the CEO himself acknowledge that Gura is number one in the world and Gura still has all these technical problems and couldn't even use her model properly for most of the year is a problem I've only seen in Hololive have.
