I agree with you, but for slightly different reasons. Her original music is just meh to me, but I find her ability to entertain is higher than the cheap V-singer moniker she got. Also, her karaoke is far superior to her original music for now IMO.
Understandable. I love some of her original songs but not every song is a hit for me. Her Youtube Music Weekend special highlighted to me how great her original songs are if sung live. I wish she would sing more of them live during her karaokes but I know they are difficult to sing.
Again. You are highlighting things that has happened during her debut and now you are back tracking saying she does have English songs but you just don't like them. You already said that she succeeded regardless so why the need to change a title when no one will care other than you and other people like you trying to rewind time and direct how things should be done from the beginning? It's not like it will change anything. I am stating the current events because obviously it shows the direction they want to take her which is more Original songs. If you follow any Vsingers, a lot of them are not that popular because of the fact they either try to just stream once a week to do that Karaoke quota that you are salivating for or get their throat thrashed because they push themselves too much therefore have to take long breaks. She's striking a balance of streaming to get attention, releasing songs every month and doing karaokes on a semi-regular basis. Try to actually make statements that makes sense in the present tense that affects her and what Cover can do to improve rather making stupid statements of what they should have done yada yada yada
Singing is not just about karaoke streams or putting out covers in Youtube, there's also EP and Album recording and production as well, which IRyS is obviously currently busy doing right now. Even if she's just a "VSinger", IRyS is still part of the Hololive brand, so there's no longer redundancy like the case of AZKi who was officially not part of the "Hololive" brand until recently
Really hope that this ends well for her
I'm hopeful. Despite her contract breaches and obvious issues, she's extremely good at what she does. Also correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that a significant portion of her fanbase has kept up with her through this.
Here's the thing about that, while it is true that some Hololive girls do get music deals even though they are not Vsingers, this is not something that Cover can offer or make possible for everyone one of them. Marine, Watame, Towa, Suisei, Calli, Aqua and Sora are all Vtubers by designation but because of their impact, numbers and influence they got music deals regardless. You can't exactly give that to every talent even though we know that a lot of them would say yes to an offer of getting their own EP. You also notice that not all of the Hololive girls gets the same request to appear on certain events. It's always the same girls with the addition of some newbies who by all means have been getting steam like Nene. Another thing you are missing is the fact that the Vsinger role isn't really a contract to get your music produced. It's a deal to sing songs that Cover wants to produce. By that simple addendum, I'm sure none of the girls I just listed would say yes to that except for the occasional promotional song for a game.
She's cursed (not really) with generic-professional-singer voice, like a commercial or backup singer. So she sounds really good doing that kind of thing, never sounds bad doing anything, and isn't memorable.
For an EN audience?
They hired the #1 indie Utaite on the platform and I can assure you her multi-million view covers played no small part in getting her through the door. Now suddenly it's less about numbers and more about EPs: which other members of Hololive do without the moniker.
Oh for sure. Don't lump her in with Council now. I was saying she would have likely benefitted from coming in with others. She was given 3 weeks in the spotlight with a collab ban hanging overhead before Council showed up.
She's in the Top 1% because Connor was always right.
oh, mamaloni is also there.
That seems to be the one!
Nyanners and Ironmouse participated in a Japanese Vtuber concert with no fuss even though the majority of their audience are in NA. She speaks frequently in both languages. There is a reason why people see her as a bridge to EN and JP much like Kiara.
Let me put it this way then. She's the Vsinger because she was hired to sing songs that Cover wants to produce. If she was hired as part of Council and then Cover continues to still fund and produce music that they would like her to sing, it will make things awkward. I don't see Council getting 2 EPs + 3 OGs, why just her? Do you understand? You are all just saying she does the same thing as if she's the one producing her own music and has any say to what she gets to sing. Her streaming activities is something she does on top of her Vsinger work. The other girls have a choice and she does not. It's that simple.
