I never understood this tag. While Momo and Mia are the same person, they're still two different VTuber personas. The fact the former's tag is named like it's a costume tag for the latter is incredibly strange to me.

Had she just 'graduated' and redebuted (whether as an indie or even still part of Idol), I would agree with you here, but the fact that Idol went through the process of actually giving her a rebrand indicates to me that this is more akin to Pochi Wanmaru's redesign than anything, visually speaking (and it helps everyone else also lumps the two together because Idol did this). Sayu Okami was also different persona-wise before her redebut as Sayu Sincronisity, but the former is rightfully recognized as her 'old design' even if we don't call it that.

I do support changing the tag's name, but not seperating it from Mia.
