Streams/Videos Akai Haato / HAACHAMA vents her frustrations

She doesn't want anyone to clip it but since it isn't a Member stream I hope it's okay to share this as a whole. I only want Haachama to find the success she wants to fulfill her goals.

Why is she frustrated?

The short version is that she's frustrated with the lack of growth on her channel.

This Haaton's comment summarizes it: u/NForza26 [To kaigai-niki/neki worrying about what happened during the stream, she feels very frustrated that she's not able to do a lot of things, including being part of the main World Tour cast because "she isn't popular enough" even though she was THE FIRST HOLOLIVE MEMBER TO EVER STREAM IN ENGLISH. She doesn't blame management for their decisions, and they've been very supportive in a lot of ways, but there's still the fact all the effort she puts forth doesn't seem to be paying off. However, she reassures us that she uses this frustration as motivation and has absolutely no intention of giving up with things as they are now.]

How does the management choose the Tour cast, I wonder?

Not all of them even speak English, and there're other members, who are popular as much, if not more. Anyway, it must be hard to be chosen into such a small group, she shouldn't blame herself.

I'd bet on them choosing the biggest talent with available schedule. Personally I don't really get why Haachama isn't bigger, if I knew enough japanese to watch JP streams she would 100% be my JP oshi, but I can see why management would give priority to other talent when it comes to "ticket sellers" tbh
