They have a lot of adversity, resulting from the tribal wars. Lots of schizo's in Hololive hate them for existing. Nijifans hate them because they hate Hololive. The core audience of Holostars is either in Niji, or groups like Crazy Raccon. So Holostar is stuck in a position where it needs to be a disruptor in an established industry. Or for that, you need at least that one exceptional talent that drag everyone in the fanbase, someone like Coco. Or Holostars doesn't have that. Because Niji is the place where male vtubers can make it big, just like Hololive is the dream place for vtubers, Cover simply can't attract the male talent pool that Niji does.

The actual problem - although VT will squeal like a dying pig about this - is a lack of internal support from programming. A lot of this advertising is effectively wrap-around PR and half of it won't even be seen by your audience because you're running it in the wrong country.

If you want people to watch the boys, you need to have them collab with the EN females and integrate them with your existing product and crosspromote. From a PR perspective there isn't another way out of this. Your audience is online and most engaged by your existing platforms (other streamers), so you have to leverage this.

If you were spotlighting new acting talent in an agency or a new band on your label, you'd get them support slots with bigger stars or have them do label promos or w/e with better known existing talent. Cover's inability or unwillingness to do this is proof they aren't business geniuses.

Kuzuha succeeded because anime is popular enough in Japan to seem normal so it doesn't feel weird for nips to see anime dudes
Anime everywhere else is largely a personal affair where you control what your exposure to anime looks like instead of walking past countless anime art ads on billboards and across the walls of high rises in all the busiest intersections
Because men can curate their consumption they curate what they have had exposure to and thus also curate what they don't get exposure to
Of course men would end up selecting for anime girls, so of course men would be more receptive to women as anime girls, and less receptive to men as anime boys
So of course men outside of Japan would be far less likely to have an interest in anime boys in general. They simply aren't a familiar thing. That makes them off-putting.

Who wants male idols in the first place? Even in Japan (and Korea. Especially Korea.) girls already have actual singing dancing dorks to moisten themselves over, and gays who might actually be autistic enough to care about a virtual male idol would still have better things to do than watch lame content.

They're trying to sell a product that nobody wants. If they want something like Holostars to be successful, they need to identify what people might actually want to see, then cater to that, not try to force a bad idea down everyone's throats when they're clearly not interested. They've got the order reversed. And that's a lesson they need to take to heart in general.

This is also why male vtubers are so bad at maintaining female audiences. They have no desire to know what the girls like and therefore they flop. They don’t know shoujo or booktok or whatever. Girls are much more flexible in their interests and make an effort to meet their male fans halfway, or they actually have the same interests to begin with.

but constant exposure to anime without any personal curation of the content is not. Notice how I was speaking strictly about ads in Tokyo and major urban centers. Most Japanese people are there. Most Japanese people get blasted with ads, more than most people are. A large portion, if not an outright majority, of those ads are going to use an anime art style. The ads themselves will not cater to the tastes of the individual observer. Japanese see anime dudes and anime girls every day, in a broad range of contexts. The majority of weebs are not going to have that kind of exposure. They curate their exposure and fine tune it to their tastes exactly. That means more girls less boys. And the inverse for female fans.

Is not only the holo fanbase, practically all of the vtuber community is not interested in them. Doesn't matter how many times they are shilled and rubbed on the face of everyone, no one gives a fuck about them. You can see that especially on the JP side, supposedly more stronger because vtubing is more accepted in japan. The JP branch was active for around 5 years and still, they never incline permanently, in fact is shrinking more than ever. Those JP members join tournaments and servers like VCR that are outside of hololive and doesn't matter how many times they join, these guys never gain more viewers. Everyone knows about them, but nobody is willing to watch or support them. Usually, JP and EN are 3 views except for roberu and bettel.

homobeggars are fucking delusional holy shit
they DID collab with the EN girls, they DID try to integrate them with the HoloPro bullshit so they could call themselves Hololive, they made song covers together, in that very image there are tons of examples of it
the result? a lot of people showed up for the collabs, especially when they were a novelty, but did not grow the boys audience AT ALL

what you're suggesting is fundamentally altering the Hololive product by making Hololive and Holostars entirely indistinguishable, making it essentially compulsory for any girl to collab with some of the boys, even those who are obviously uncomfortable with it and did not sign up for that shit when they got hired by Hololive
maybe this strategy would attract a new audience for the old one would be almost completely gone in just a few months

Yeah, EN blows JP away in basically every metric on average with the only real success story being Roberu. StarsJP might actually be in danger of dissolving at some point while the same can't be said for StarsEN.

The NYE stream last that was watched by 160k people during the homo segment did absolutely nothing, the hololive audience are all aware of them, they have been exposed to them and you would be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't know about them.
The simple conclusion to all of this is that they have been promoted and the ones who were exposed to them simply said "no".

I did sub to Axel and Vesper to show some support but Vesper quickly collabed with Kronii ruining the "bro" integrity of his initial image and Axel was only good at Apex, and that game fucking sucks cock. If he took an interest in other difficult competitive games I may still be subbed today.
None of the other Stars ever caught my attention and some actively pushed me away (Altare with his tranny pandering).

It's been said if they simply stopped with the male idol shit the Stars would incline and I agree 100%. No one really cares about men singing and dancing in a company full of girls who do it better and cuter. The guys should be gamers and comedians.

I don’t care about their streams but I try to give most songs a listen. Some of their covers are pretty good desu but I don’t think any of them got over 500k. Even the guys that can actually sing like Hakka and Octavio.
Meanwhile Uki’s ori song with genuinely some of the worst lyrics I’ve ever heard is near 6 million.
It could be an algorithm thing but I blame sisters k-pop replaymaxxing even when the song is trash

Oh there are other options and that's the problem. If no holomem are live, I'll watch an archive I'm interested in, play a game, watch random youtube videos, I'm truly spoilt for choice with entertainment. It's an exceptionally long list and watching male vtubers is so far down that list it isn't even worth considering. I assume it's the same way for most holofans.

I would put at least 3 of the homos at discord groomer tier and another 2 of them in leech/I want to be hololive too tier.
Some of them are better than others but hololive fans were never going to be comfortable bankrolling a bunch of dudes to be friends with their oshis, it was always going to create friction with the audience holo built.
Now you have the worst of the worst like dino flip and flayon and I think everyone is thankful they are mostly quarantined.

Sorry to the somewhat decent ones that have been doing their own thing since they got in but I will always see homoEN as a mistake, I don't care if they have finally surpassed the ruins of luxiem, that's hardly an achievement when the nijimales audience had already abandoned them. All the "growth" the homos have managed pales in comparison to the damage management did to holo trying to force the products together and letting the girls branch wither for years whilst they were forcing more males out the door.

>Why do homobeggars refuse to watch streams of the people they homobeg for?
Because the homostars are fundamentally shit talents that no one wants to watch not even them
That's why they try convincing other people to watch them, because it's virtuous ("It'd own the unicorns"), but they don't want to be bored to death
>Why can this simple question never be answered?
Because it blows up their entire argument, they are literally telling people that are enjoying something that they should instead watch something they have no interest in, that is a shit quality product that no one wants, just because someone else thinks that's the right thing to do (??? no one is entitled attention retards)

There's only two routes to success as a male streamer
1. Pandering hard to rich fujos/yumes that are willing to support them, which is the route that niji EN took
2. Being a really good or unique streamer, like the so-called "brotuber"
Stars EN tried (initially at least) the 2nd approach and actually had some success for a while, before the novelty wore off and they were relegated to essentially being accessories for the holos they occasionally collabed with
The fundamental problem with this approach is that vtubing doesn't operate in a vacuum - they're also competing against fleshtuber/streamers that are far more popular and established than them
Unlike for the girls, the anime avatar for male streamers is actually a hindrance here rather than synergistic
At best, these avatars far far less expressive than what fleshstreamers are capable of
At worst, it's cringe to the majority of potential audience which includes non-weebs, and can attract horny femcels (from approach 1) which are just incompatible with the rest of the fanbase (just think how cringe it would be to see pregnant emotes being spammed in a "brotuber" chat)
Basically there's no benefit to being a male vtuber unless you're trying to attract a female audience

And the thing about the Appeal to Virtue strategy is that it's become so obnoxious that it's starting to turn otherwise neutral fans against the homos too.

There’s still events where it’s just the girls. There’s likely a priority for who gets invited but I doubt it’s a mandatory bundle thing because if that was the case their meet and greet tickets wouldn’t be selling out in under 5 minutes. And at least for one convention the organizer was a genuine en fan. He was happy to have them there.

When there is no one live in EN the guys will still be 3view. Hololive fans know they exist and aren't interested. I gave them a try until I was forcing myself for "unity" and realized I was better off watching what I actually enjoy. Girls are also way more appealing as idols. Homos have a very annoying fanbase that gets mad about the girls and the fans, acting like they are entitled to collabs and the same popularity and viewership. Claiming the girls are bad people if they don't share it with them. Stop trying to guilt trip people into support your favorite streamer, it only makes them more hated.
