Ripia briefly mentioned it in their Your faves won't have the longevity of Twice. but I woke up today feeling violent and decided to make a thread out of it.
If we count comebacks Blackpink's last comeback was their 6th, which for comparison puts Twice between Heart Shaker and What Is Love, Red Velvet between Rookie and Red Flavor
If we count singles, it is a bit more, since it wasn't unusual for them to put out 2 singles, it is their 10th, which for Twice would be Fancy and for RV...no idea how to count their bunch of SM station songs.
But the point is that the almighty BP and their "genius papa" were just delaying their career run. Blinks on one hand complained about getting bare minimum but they are also secretly happy cause they get to brag about charting after both Twice and RV stopped. But it is a pretentious achievement when both groups had a more successful overall run but just did it faster.
