Jesus. I can't like Sakamata of HoloX because I feel like she baits coomers who think gross girls smell good(they don't) and Gura says some shit that makes me raise an eyebrow, but at least it's not in a way that feels like it's playing to an audience. I haven't watched more than a few seconds of Pippa but she seems alright enough, but jesus, how do people get like this? I can be a gross fatty on particularly tiring days of work, but I dunno man. Women are wild.
Quoting @Ralph Barnhardt below and commenting further:
In my own expert and very genius opinion, I think there just wasn't any stability in their childhood. The others I can't speak on as I've never watched most of their stuff but I can flesh out my argument with what I know about the Yabbit.

The other possibility, and I wanna super stress that I have no direct evidence and don't like insinuating this, is that these women were diddled as children. One defense mechanism of women who were molested is to stop taking care of themselves, make themselves as repulsive as possible to deter anyone from attacking them again or use it as an outward display of how they see themselves. Is that what happened to them? If we're being honest, given what we know about abuse there is a non zero percentage that the answer is yes. I honestly don't ever want to know for two reasons:
To be honest, I had this thought about Sakamata after the bath meme and one clip where she jokingly blamed her grandma for making her a degenerate. She's much more socially capable than Pippa in collabs though, so nah. But I can believe a lack of stability, as she mentioned that she was at her grandma's place a lot as a kid. It's also speculated that Sakamata, her younger sister, and her grandma were living together until grandma passed away a few months ago. Then again, whatever was going on with her family, it wasn't money - she spent a short time studying in New Zealand.
Edit:
Clip of Sakamata talking about why she hates baths. My parents would have forced me to get over it, but that just proves the point above.
With Pippa I defer to your knowledge and that of the pippenis washers.
Yeah guys make love not war etc... here's a reminder Reine's thing for the youtube music weekend starts in around 20. Ollie has a segment too
afterwards.
Jankier tracking than the ENs, at least to my eye, but it's funny and it's good to see Reine try it out. This may have been mentioned already but I think she wears glasses; a couple of times you can see her raise her hand to the bridge of her nose while doing something else. I don't know why she needs a black iron sword to DJ though, and I don't know if I want to know.
Ollie's segment was also great. Her singing isn't always for me, but I'm very impressed by her translation.
