I'm a penis-haver, but judging from my experience with the fujos, this definitely appeal to them
At the same time, they are not THE focus. Dev_is, to me, is definitely going for normies and a general audience rather than any group in particular.

Edit:
At the end of the day, the girls themselves seem no different than any other JP girl to me in terms of personalities, the biggest difference is in their designs and low kayfabe.

What in the fuck just happened?

A very long discussion with management about not meeting Debut Objectives.

Shaman King, Ranma 1/2, Ar Tonelico, HxH
Yeah, definitely a HAG

Really strong late 90s / early 2000s heavy hitters. Definitely going to be early 30s.

Yeah this is definitely kansaiben the accent is too thick to ignore if that makes sense

Hajime + Chloe + Miko collab. Just think of the insanity. It'll be 2 hours. Words will happen. No one will know what was said.

It really feels like the least idol-like gen

Imagine being the papa that did the rigging for her. She spent like 85% of the stream with her model far off in the distance and the rest was a close-up face shot with her wearing a mask and she never showed her model's face

Nah, if anything this is how idols are in Korea
And they are massively successful in the mainstream Japan

Considering it is only humans it fits.

And Holo has no humans (Subaru is a duck, matsuri a god, haachama is haachama, sora is goddess, noel a cow/kcups, iroha ninja, suisei a comet, azki a navi)

I feel bad because I'm still recovering from the fever dream that was Raden's stream and barely followed along with Hajime's stream.

Nice ending screen, since she likes dancing so much it would be interesting to see her + Bae + Kiara (maybe?) doing a song/dance.

ED is cute too

Not that guys won't enjoy them (obviously), but overall DEV_IS feels like a shoujo manga for women.

EDIT: OH, will we get the group outfits for this collab? Nope, lol

Hajime's dance animation is incredibly cute.

Also, saying they are not idols would be odd. I don't think Cover would ever claim that. Every branch in Holo is idols. They are still very much going to be doing idol activities. They are just more group-focused and clearly marketed much differently.

I feel like they want to capture the potential audience of non anime adjacent people here who are curious of vtubers on this group as well as the kpop fanbase that isn't batshit insane

Does that make sense or am I completely talking out of my ass

RRAT Time. These girls are JP7 reject but management saw potential in them. So instead of letting them go home they create a new branch.

It's....kinda hard to explain, you just have to actually know more about kpop
But if I can explain it with single words, I would use "relatability", "vulnerability", and "lowest common denominators"
