That's entirely on nips though (rest I agree with, it's dumb autism on her side)
Girls like Flare and Towa don't have cutesy natural voice so nips go "oh no, you're not kawaii" and thus girls have to tune their voices.
After watching very early streams of Flare I was glad to hear that her laugh is natural - it sounds exactly the same when she wasn't using her cute voice yet.

She could've leaned into it like Nene or just rolled with the ugly CN esque design like Artia, Flare for the most part is a good girl but I ironically have to side with the schizo sometimes she's a little pushy on her design/lore. I mean show some respect Aki already got the "future elf" lore, I don't think Flare is wrong all elves don't HAVE to be Tolkien tier but hers is because it fits her gens name of FANTASY better as medieval like.

Not without losing her golden ticket. Back in those days, they designed the model and hired someone for it, rather than hire the talent and make a model to fit them. If she said she didn't want to be an elf, they'd find someone who would, and probably never contact her again because she's hard to work with. She decided to deal with a model she hated and collect free money rather than give up any chance.

either he cares about it and he'll make her a cute pyromancer and rework kiara to make them less similar

Kay has made characters with bias to Holos that care about the game, and Flare didn't even stream the steam update at all, in fact she streamed the game exactly once back in 0.4 when the initial hype for it happened
0.7 is going to be a shitshow either way with Rushia now that he closed off the route to avoid Sankisei by putting in Pekora's casino so he might feel like that drama will cover up other stuff

Not a Flareschizo but she's a huge example of wasted potential.
People want Flare to be the cool and sexy, but she wanted to be cute and went with it regardless. Except the reason why Flare was hired by Hololive WAS her cool and sexy image. Her model is easily the most SEX out of the GOLDEN GENERATION of the MOST WELL KNOWN vtuber company. She could easily gain more success if she played her exotic coombait character properly (not good on its own, but it's better than nothing). Rejecting and stubbornly trying to change was a big mistake, now she's permanently stuck in a well endowed brown model that goes against her preferred aesthetic in an industry where people tried to match their avatar.

>Ruined Shiraken by recruiting too many members, also by being deadweight outside block game
So on so forth. By their own these are all salvageable, together they make a trash heap

So what does Flare have going for her?
>One of the best endurance singers in Hololive
but her singing voice and song choices are not exceptional... except with songs that could actually make use of her cool voice like Kaibutsu or Ussewa and not fucking Kokoro Odoro again
>Very feminine: Really kind to other holomem, smells nice, likes to recommend good beauty products
but none of that translates well to a good experience for an average viewer
>Good sense of architecture for a holo
but doesn't show it outside of block game and animal crossing.
>Barrage of orisongs on her latest concert
but all of them are bland and forgettable. No personality trait or lore gimmick to market. And where's the album?

I used to endure watching her for months. She's adjacent to a lot of holomem I like so I really want to like her too. But the more I watch the more of her flaws are exposed, the more I feel like I'm robbed from the full experience. She's an underdog without the underdog appeal. These days I don't bother watching her outside collabs.
Everything that went wrong with her is her own doing. And just like the broken MTL english in her outro, it will likely never be fixed. If Hololive didnt grow big she would have graduated by now. おつfuckingぬい.

>She could easily gain more success if she played her exotic coombait character properly
Cover forcing Hololive talents into the lewd vtuber role causes huge fights over redesigns that go on for years. Ina was acting like she was thinking of graduation for most of 2022. Kronii might be thinking of moving to VShojo. Hololive talents not having any control over their Live2D model is why Flare had so many problems. Instead of blaming talents for not liking their design wouldn't it be more reasonable to blame the corpo for not giving them any choice?

I don't think the way she interacts with her middle school Minecraft club is really comparable to the rest

Honestly I could look past all of these, but her absolute apathy during the Rushia termination statement made me really not care for her

The fuck are you even talking about? Have you seen her alts? Have you seen Polka's alts? Holos have some of the most prude, gandma outfits in the whole scene.
Only freedom they lack is being able to completely change the defining features of their models on a whim, which thank god they can't.
