I think it's debatable whether they grew past pre-EN 2020 numbers in Europe at all.

Gen 0 isn't actually a generation, they were all solo debuts (and none of them debuted under the "hololive" brand either). Mel was also supposed to be a solo debut originally but got moved into gen 1 due to a prehistoric yab.
Gamers was also never planned as a generation, it was pretty much just an excuse to hire FBK's friends.

The fact that they so heavily target NA is the issue, really. The EN branch was originally supposed to be global, but they've been in this cycle of focusing heavily on NA, so fewer people from elsewhere watch them, so they focus on NA even harder. That narrowing focus has left EN as the only branch of hololive that's not growing in viewers, and they've been at it so long that I don't think it's fixable any more.

To extend the number autism, JP gens have an average debut viewer growth of 250%, while EN's average is 20%.

Not quite, at her peak in February/March 2019 she was 3rd overall behind Sora and Fubuki and weeks away from surpassing Fubuki before Fox Friend and Aqua hit a notable incline that eluded Choco. Setting subscribers aside, Choco was always mid tier or worse when you looked at CCV instead of Subscribers.

most of EU is 8 hours ahead of most of NA. you're seriously suggesting that they switch to streaming in the morning (PST) for a good chunk of their audience to try and get people that don't watch them to watch them. even though there is someone that always streams in a good EU time and gets shit numbers (kiara)

>> No.65986066

>>65985838
The implicit suggestion is that EN should hire people who stream on a more varied schedule in general, not that the existing members should move. EN is both too small and too concentrated on NA hours to serve as a real global branch.
Also, you can't infer potential popularity in a region from one person. Kiara doesn't consistently stream in EU primetime to begin with (she routinely starts at 3-4PM) and you could just as easily point to people with low viewers in NA/JP/ID time slots to say those aren't viable, which is obviously wrong.

You make a valid point but I’ll raise a different point. ID and CN both of which couldn’t compare. Aqua and Gura probably had more ID and CN fans than both branches combined not to mention Pekora, Haachama, Miko, Fubuki etc. Hololive hadn’t reached a point where you just had a built in audience yet but in general terms you are correct JP literally crawled to EN could walk because JP existed before EN. Outside of that EN stood on their own 2 feet

She was invited to Vshoujo by Kson and declined she could have the numbers if she wanted them.

It's hard to take any of these posts seriously when 90% of the posters here only know of hololive's existence because of EN and Coco and were never there for any of the information they're talking about.

To be frank, it is noticeable that Choco and Mel took a hit around this time but by no means did it take them down from the top tier. Both were on the lower end of CCV before these 'nukes' struck and the impact was to send them to the very bottom.
The most that could be said in regards to this nuke harming them was that prior to the strikes she was the 4th most subscribed member of Hololive at the time. But the growth rates in the months prior were showing Choco starting to lose momentum even before she was struck by Youtube. The worst you could say that happened from the ASMR bans was that it hastened the irrelevancy of Choco and Mel by a few months sooner as the likes of Gen3 and Coco were completely redefining the meta in Hololive and by extension Vtubing.

Nta but at that time yt used to be more involved with the algorithm. You get a snip first and then blasted. Doesn’t mean that’s what happened but it wasn’t isolated incidents either

Yeah because they were both getting blown up in their DMs asking about it.

She and Kson talked when Delu told her she planes to be a singer and go alone.
https://youtu.be/JLaATMXopIg?si=vNok5hAGqWrWywsk

Delu still greatly respects and likes Kson.

I can read between the lines Delu wants to do it on her own Kson respects that.

I get you but even assuming there were no strikes and Mel and Choco maintained their prior numbers and growth rates, they would have still be overtaken by the others who began to surge.
To use an RPG analogy, say the Hololive members were about to fight a raid boss. Mel and Choco were coming in underleveled, the strikes took away their equipment on top of that. Even if you gave them their equipment back they still would not have done that well being underleveled compared to the others.

YOU STUPID FUCKING RETARD. The entire point of the original topic was not that the vtubers in your list from 2018 and before are no longer around or not respected, the point was that they are well past their primes and have been on gradual decline. That is an irrefutable fact for everyone that meets the criteria. And that basically Suisei and Miko are two of the rare vtubers from that era that not only haven't peaked yet, but are bigger than ever before. It's not a dig at the other OGs, it's a compliment to Micomet.
