    Oh boy, that was fast. Glad to see StarsEN regrow their numbers but judging from when they are active on twitter it doesn’t look good for eurpean viewers

      Europe is just left out to dry when it comes to the big agencies most things coming out of Japan. All we get are indies (not that that’s particularly bad but it makes discovering talented VTubers a bit harder)

      Edit: yup, debut times are perfect to shaft over Europe again, Cover why must you make us suffer so much

        It’s weird - seems like a pretty big viewerbase to (basically) ignore. I guess it does make collabs more challenging when there’s 3 timezone groups to deal with, but that seems like a weak reason to leave so much on the table so there’s gotta be something else there right?

          What’s even more is that it’s a pretty wealthy viewerbase to ignore, west/central Europe has (well in recent times not as much) plenty of disposable income that Cover doesn’t take full advantage of. Even with very simple things like shipping, I have plenty of hobby money but when the shipping costs are as much as the stuff I’m buying it does make me rethink the purchase.

            Yeah, I never bought anything directly from Cover because of the shipping. When stuff like Pop-Up Figures or Weiß Schwarz packs come out I have no issue pulling out my wallet, but buying something where more than half the cost is shipping… is kind of a turnoff.

        Sometimes I wonder of I’m a KFP because I like Kiara more than anyone else or if it’s because she’s the only one reliably streaming at my time

        Biggest reason I was sad to lose Vesper was because of his semi EU friendly morning streams

          I suspect management not liking those times was part of the reason he graduated, he did rant about it in some of the earlier streams at least

            I think there’s a decent chance of that too, may also be behind the 2 weeks suspension where he lost his temper with management over something

      Definitely wasn’t expecting 3 StarsEN gens in half the time it took for 3 HoloPro gens. They must’ve just gotten so many really good applicants
