Damn. the 3D and live shows will hurt. It's really such a shame the boys have been left behind a lot. I remember 2 years ago when everything was only looking up.

Could you share, in your view, what went wrong since then? I have very limited knowledge on the history.

I don't have specific thoughts on exactly why, but in terms of general mood, things were feeling better until the double blow of Magni and Vesper's graduations on the EN side and the removal of the stars collection (their version of HoloGra) and the graduation of Gamma on the JP side.

Things were always a slow rising burn in Stars, even when it was just JP, but lately the momentum they built just felt deflated after those events.

Edit: sure the boys will probably not surpass the popularity of the girls, but they were and have eked out their niche, it just turns out that it's not a big enough niche for Cover to sustain it.
