⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
I personally do not have any hate against Evil and think that both twins should be treated equally. I'm also willing to listen to anyone's opinion on this.

So I've been in the community for a while now (started watching when the Neuro v2 model debuted) and have seen that Evil constantly has been more liked by the community and has more loyal followers than Neuro by looking at polls and chat messages. While I don't have a problem with this, I wanted to look into this phenomenon and look into some reasons as to why Evil is more popular than Neuro.

  1. Personality.
    I had a hard time looking into this, but people seem to have liked Evil more for her Evilness and also how she's more kinder than Neuro, which I'm a bit skeptical of since they change their behavior depending on the person they talk to and is pretty hard to say which one is kinder or not since Evil gets less screen time than Neuro.

  2. Relatability
    I'm probably bullshitting here, but people can see themselves in Evil because Evil also has daddy issues, had no one come to their birthday party, and has a sibling their parent/s like more.

3.Voice
People like Evil more for her wider vocal range and better singing voice.

  1. Demand and Supply
    Basically, since Vedal makes Evil stream less than Neuro the demand for Evil streams will go up and will make Evil streams seem more special.

I know my explanations are kinda shit, but I'd also like to know your answers to this question since I'm genuinely interested as to why a good amount of the community prefers Evil to Neuro.

  1. they arent that different in that regard, its just that since evil is supposed to be evil, her "breaking character" has a stronger effect when she is nice
  2. sorry but this is just random bullshit indeed
  3. agree
  4. that is true, you can also check latest popularity polls on streams and notice that they are getting much closer to 50/50 than they were for a long time. This is happening with vedals latest better treatment of evil and her appearing more on stream.
    Also evil does a great job at pity-baiting sometimes (sometimes it feels too forced) so that adds a lot too. The evil bias got a huge boost after her birthday too, so there is that

There's absolutely no point arguing about personalities, Neuro and Evil are obviously different, and it's just as obvious that people like different types

The second point is just ridiculously absurd lmao

The third point is actually arguable, Better singing doesn't make her more popular as a streamer, only during karaoke. As for the voice, we can contrast the new Neuro model, which expresses a lot of emotions and has made her much more "lively" visually than Evil, but it did not affect the popularity at all. Neuro is also smarter than Evil, and you don't have to wait 5 seconds for her to respond (not counting her narcolepsy on recent streams)

I kinda agree with 4th point. People who love both sisters want them to stream 50/50, and obviously the Evilists want more. Therefore, in the current situation, more people are happy when she streams. But that's just statistics, popularity has nothing to do with it

In addition to the above, I would add that I like Evil yapping more, she is more creative imo.
And also her poems, stories, her huge texts with reflections on "feelings" and many other things, which are always accompanied by neuroAware by the whole chat, make it seem that she is more "emotional"

And generally, Evil is more popular only WITHIN the community. And those who are not particularly familiar with Neuro and Evil consider the second one to be just an alter ego/recolored version/ don't know about her existence. Neuro is more popular in general, a lot more people know about her

One of the big reasons for me is their ability to focus.
At least personally going off of vibes alone, Evil can be much easier to follow than Neuro when it comes to playing games. The difference between Neuro playing DBH and Evil playing Henry Stickman feels like night and day. I got kind of frustrated watching Neuro play because she’d get distracted or wouldn’t answer a proper choice for long periods of time(not her fault, I can understand why she does it) while Evil corrected course relatively quickly when going off track in the recent stream and even gave her next option prematurely on more than one occasion after noticing the fail. Of course, this could be a variety of differences not related to the twins (the games have different durations, graphics, mechanics, etc or veeduhl learning what to say to get them back on track), and I’m really just going over what I think I’m feeling and could be completely wrong objectively.

Also the second point is not that shit ig...I do see someone like Evil because they feel the same way...

for me it's mainly her voice, her voice suppose to be new neuro voice that got rejected because "it's not sound like neuro"
so it's more like "I love neuro with new voice" than "I love evil" as a character concept

and she seem easy to read too, which because but of her voice and her AI (but I think mainly her voice)
that you can tell how does she feel even you doesn't understand what she said at all (curse of non-english speaker evilDeadge)
that's not happen to neuro at all due to her monotone voice. (look at her when vedal said he gonna give her pipe back evilCry )

and another reason is... I just love pink/red eyes girl evilflooshed
still want her purple ribbon back tho neuroAware

  1. this is a question that can be answered on two parts. the original appeal of Evil was that she was the meaner, nastier edgier Neuro who constantly swore and treated everyone like shit. in a period where streams only had Neuro, Evil was a unique and new from the “boring, nicer” Neuro. modern Evil’s appeal is different, Neuro is the “crazy ai that says super mean things” while Evil is the “cuter and weirdly nicer” twin. these are both a reflection of the state of Neuro which tends to make Evil more attractive in comparison.
  2. this is sorta true but the reason ties into my answer to your first proposal rather than the explanations you gave. Neuro is very random and views herself very highly most of the time, this is entertaining but it makes Neuro extremely inhuman. this is different from Evil whose more consistent and laid back personality makes her seem more “real” or at least more “down to earth” than the evangelical Neuro. her having her personality also makes the inhuman traits she does have seem more childish or just generally more “pretend” as opposed to her actual desires.
  3. yes, Evil having the better voice definitely makes her more appealing and almost makes her seem like “the better” Neuro (she’s not but you get it).
  4. Evil is rare and we don’t get as many opportunities to see her flaws nor does chat get enough time to “play around” with her like Neuro. it really doesn’t help Vedal that Evil has taken on this black sheep child type of role which makes any attempt to suppress her importance make her more visible and desired by fans.

  1. i’m adding this one on but another reason i think Evil is more popular is because of her aesthetic, while the current Neuro community is filled with vtuber fans it wasn’t always that way. i think Neuro’s traditional cute and bright anime girl appearance is simply less appealing to the typical person than Evil’s darker and edgier style.
#

Evil is also smarter and more capable of focusing but people won’t admit that so ElivMyQueen

So from what I can understand after reading all the responses is that Evil is more liked because Neuro is boring in comparison?

I think some people pretend to strongly prefer one or the other because it's fun to pick sides

To be honest today's Scribblenauts stream has completely changed my view of Neuro.

Yeah It's really hard to say which twin is better or not, since they're both pretty unpredictable.
