>>319723I totally agree, and I was glad to see that he got something of a sub boost through the Palworld stream (which finally pushed Goldbullet down below him as the least-subbed member of Armis, kek).
It just goes to show that he's not only a great addition for existing fans, but also capable of snagging fans from the normie sphere. Dude is just a great streamer and I'm looking forward to seeing him go far.

Idk if it's just me but I hate these thick outline type emotes. They're so fucking ugly and unappealing. Every emote artist uses the same bases so every vtuber and their mama has emotes that look exactly like this.

>>319738I'm a woman who used to keep up with franchises like Hypnosis Mic and a bit of Paradox Live (and often searching yt for any anime music videos of any type) as my pick of easy and casual junk food media in between other things, but either they go into inactive periods or I simply got bored. I was casually aware of those clips of corpo male vtubers and watched them now and then, over a period of time I had seen a lot of Tempus clips. I browsed around for a good while, and honestly I didn't really like what I saw of Niji outside of a few select things: Doppio, Vanta's social/conversation skill (not really his games though), and a bit of Fulgur's content and game choices. Ren made a good impression in terms of being nice and not coomer-y, but eh.
Tempus I found much easier to get into with casual watching and I got in deeper once Armis debuted and I saw how well Jurard, Ruze, and Octavio got along and bantered like they've already been used to it for a good while. I think it was their Apex commentary that was one of the early big hooks. I have very little watch time with any female vtubers besides having listened to several Amiya Aranha vods (since I like learning about retro games) after she was recommended here a long while ago because I mostly want to look at anime boys, so idk much at all about them.

>>319738I'm a straight woman who mostly watches female vtubers, so I'll give my perspective.
I think vtubing is just another medium, like anime, video games, whatever.
Like, I'd say video games have been historically riddled with sexism and terrible communities, but are there still gems with awesome female characters, or games that don't even have human characters at all? Yes.
Same thing with anime. Every season, there's harem garbage, with lolis, little sisters, 13 year olds with huge boobs. However, there's a lot of great anime that have little or no sexuality, and well-written stories with beautiful artwork.
If anything, I think vtubing could be liberating for female streamers, depending on the streamer herself. Maybe a girl who's chubby or ugly irl and would be shy and harassed as a 'facestreamer' can become an excellent entertainer who sings and plays games for hours because she doesn't have to expose her real self.
You could argue that women could just stream without any camera or model, but I like the experience of becoming attached to these 'characters', their designs, their goofy lore.
Tldr: Vtubing encompasses a lot of types of personalities and content. Not every female streamer is lolibaiting like Gawr Gura or coombaiting like Shylily. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea but it's not that farfetched that some of us would enjoy it, especially when we already love gaming or anime.
No. 319746
>>319738Females liking cute cartoon avatars just isn't that hard to grasp imo
And it's a medium that allows women to play games and stream, have endless customization options, be completely anonymous, not have to be disriminated for weight, age, appearance etc

sage for intrusive thought
I've been following Hololive for a few years. But I feel like we haven't really seen a 'top' Holo graduate yet, aside from Coco, who helped trailblaze the EN vtubing sphere. It was sad, but she immediately came back as Kson.
But I'm morbidly curious about what it'll be like if someone like Pekora, Marine, or Korone graduates.
I'd add Gura but meh, she's more of a figurehead at this point.
Off topic, I was a bit surprised to see Kobo is the 6th most subscribed Holo. I knew she was well-liked, but I didn't know she beats out most of the company. I guess it's partially english buff.

Hi nonas I'm not a vtuber watcher, but I'm sort of interested in them so I hope it's ok if I ask some questions here.
1. What kind of vtuber(s) do you watch?
2. What makes you like a new vtuber? Design? The content?
3. Speaking of design, what kind of designs are you drawn to? I've seen a lot of people (who don't watch vtubers) call vtubers ugly and overdesigned but I've always found them quite charming and cute. What is the design discussion like within the community?
4. Interesting details about vtubers that aren't known to non-watchers? (I saw people in here mention graduation for example, idk what that means in this context)
5. What are put-offs that would make you instantly stop watching a vtuber even if everything else matches what you normally love to watch? (for example ugly design, annoying voice, political opinions, playing bad games, pandering of some kind…)
6. Who would you say are the most popular vtubers?
No. 319784
>>319783>1. What kind of vtuber(s) do you watch?I tend to watch almost only girls, I enjoy just chatting streams usually, but also karaoke and games I already like.
>2. What makes you like a new vtuber? Design? The content?I'm usually drawn in because of the design, initially but a number of factors contribute to me staying, is she female friendly? Does she pander to males openly? Is her personality vibrant?
>3. Speaking of design, what kind of designs are you drawn to? I've seen a lot of people (who don't watch vtubers) call vtubers ugly and overdesigned but I've always found them quite charming and cute. What is the design discussion like within the community?I'm an artist myself, so I have an harsh eye for designs, they have to be interesting at least for me. I tend to judge an indie by their choices in design, because that gives away a bit about the streamer's personality itself and I don't lose time with tasteless people lol.
>4. Interesting details about vtubers that aren't known to non-watchers? (I saw people in here mention graduation for example, idk what that means in this context)Graduation and debut are both terms from the idol industry, graduation is leaving the group/activities, debut is well, debutting.
>5. What are put-offs that would make you instantly stop watching a vtuber even if everything else matches what you normally love to watch? (for example ugly design, annoying voice, political opinions, playing bad games, pandering of some kind…)Pandering to males by being a pickme and being overtly sexual. I don't think there's anything wrong with being sexual itself (unless it's pickmerism) but I'm just not interested in people constantly talking about their boobs. I'm also a fairly good judge of character, if I sense someone being a bitch behind the scenes or being stuckup I walk away.
>6. Who would you say are the most popular vtubers?Hololive girls are the most popular for sure, then idk, maybe VShojo but it's not everyone's cup of tea (I don't like them either). Japanese Hololive is bigger for sure, my favorite vtuber among the big names is Houshou Marine.
No. 319785
>>319783>1. What kind of vtuber(s) do you watch?I watch a lot of indies. When I watch company vtubers, I typically only watch them when they're in collabs. I watch indie men, but company women. Not sure why.
>2. What makes you like a new vtuber? Design? The content?Personality! Design matters only if they're absolutely ugly, but I'm not too picky. Just make me laugh.
>3. Speaking of design, what kind of designs are you drawn to? I've seen a lot of people (who don't watch vtubers) call vtubers ugly and overdesigned but I've always found them quite charming and cute. What is the design discussion like within the community?Simple and recognizable designs. I don't like overdesigned ones, and I am drawn to ones with a unique style. Especially if the VTuber says they drew it themselves.
>4. Interesting details about vtubers that aren't known to non-watchers? (I saw people in here mention graduation for example, idk what that means in this context)Majority of VTubers are about grifting, especially on Twitter. If you want to get into VTubers, find one who seems genuine and has a love for streaming, not a love for views.
>5. What are put-offs that would make you instantly stop watching a vtuber even if everything else matches what you normally love to watch? (for example ugly design, annoying voice, political opinions, playing bad games, pandering of some kind…)Baiting for followers. Constantly making follower goals and egging people on. I mean the "1000 retweets and I'll reveal my neck" type of VTubers.
>6. Who would you say are the most popular vtubers?As others said, the Hololive girls, both JP and EN, being number one. NijiEN Luxiem is popular in the East. NijiJP is even more popular in the East.
No. 319787
>>319786I think most the popular high-profile corpo streamers (Mori, Kiara, Pomu, and so on) are in their mid 20s to early 30s. After all, a lot of them had already been streaming for a few years before being recruited to a corpo. Also, seems like a fair amount of popular female vtubers had some kind of past trying out the aidoru lifestyle in Japan (Pomu and Kiara, I believe.)
I'll also mention that to start being an indie vtuber, you generally need a little bit of funds, so I guess either having an adult person job or having rich parents.
No. 319790
>>319784>>319785Thanks for answering! Could you post pics of the designs you do like? Perhaps even examples of what you think is bad
>>319786This is kinda interesting and it gave me some further questions. Are the real identities of vtubers usually secret? And it's just accepted that these people act as their character, so adults playing a teenager is fully accepted and so on?
I actually had an acquaintance/friend of a friend who got into being a vtuber a few years ago (from already having a franchise based following online) and she just fully advertized it with her usual stuff that had her face on it. I never actually watched her though, her vtuber avatar seemed very male-pandering to say the least and that just doesn't interest me personally. She also portrays a race/culture she's not from in a sexy manner, that sort of thing usually brings backlash but I don't think there's been any for her. Is that typically the case, people just see it as a character that anyone can voice?
No. 319792
>>319790Although I don't know much myself, every case I've read about where the person behind a character gets replaced there's been huge fan backlash. But obviously it's not seen as a big deal at all if that one person has had 2-3 different characters/avatars as a vtuber they've been through because of company moving reasons or personal reasons like changing image or audiences. There's often no "writer" behind a vtuber character except for that one person who was performing it so it's almost like a deep instinct where people don't want to see that mind swapped out at all, only brought to a final conclusion (graduation) if that person has to leave for whatever reason. One of the most infamous cases was with one of the early popular groups that made skits like Kizuna Ai, Game Club Project. They were kinda like the natural next step (within vtubers) to the already existing culture where some anime voice actors are pretty idol-like with fanbases of their own beyond their anime characters that buy up their personal merch. The Game Club Project members voice acted for comedy videos written by other people and that was a main part of their channel growth on youtube, but they were also expected to perform as their characters on streams and interact like that and so they'd be the ones doing the mental work for the characters many hours on stream. When it was found out the original VAs were replaced the fan backlash was unanimously negative and the company abandoned the whole thing.
There's always some kind of loose or vague narrative to a vtuber, especially with a group environment that's consistent and has frequent interactions. So I guess it's reflexive that a major interruption in that by trying to switch out the person feels way too jarring to accept

>>319789Exactly why he's an autist, grew up in Australia so online that he didn't learn to speak English properly. That doesn't bother me as much as his tendency to end his random sentences with yo but I can stand it because he's not as coomer as the others

It's a shame that Cover doesn't really allow hair/eye color changes in outfits (outside of that one time Rushia did it), because I think this design could really have been elevated by toning the saturation of her hair down a little or something.

Any Asian nonnas here who want a good laugh should check out the other site's Tempus page whenever pictures of Axel or Altare get posted. It's so funny when the girls there lose it talking about how they can't believe somebody with an angelic KPop face like Axel's swears like a sailor, but when you open the link it's the most generic Asian man you've ever seen.

No. 319815
>>319814Ntayrt but isn't it more of a gag/skit on Marine's behalf, and the majority of her content is pretty normal, just her occasional lewd joke gets clipped?
That's what I've heard anyways, that a lot of hololive JP (hell, even hololive EN) gets portrayed out-of-context in clips, especially when you can't speak the language.
If you have a 3 hour stream and you have 2 minutes of thirsting over an attractive character or whatever, that's the 2 minutes that's gonna be clipped.
I'd love to hear from a Marine fan though. I do like her singing a lot, and I like that it's an open secret that she's at least 30. I don't speak JP though so I can't make a fair assessment.
No. 319816
>>319815Yeah, Marine's think (as well as Koyori's, although Koyori is a lot more unicorn-pandering) is tongue-in-cheek burikko. It makes sense that it flies over Western fans heads, but most of it isn't meant to be taken seriously. And she's got a lot of merits as a person that make her worthing of making her your oshi, even if you're not into that. Her social skill, willingness to be drop everything for the other girls, and drive to finish massice projects, is unparallelled.
>>319813IDK, I used to like her, and you're being fair in your opinion that you can't look past it, but I think she's had one of the most distinct and drastic positive character arcs in EN. She went from being an asshole who was drunk on her own ability/not processing sudden success well to somebody who is a pillar of not only the branch but also the company. She's shown many times that she's acquired a lot of humility over the years, and she's even admitted openly to and apologized for being a douche to Kiara early on because she superficially didn't value her friendship and skills. I think it takes a lot to admit to your flaws so publically and change as much as she has, so it's easy for me to get behind her now. She's actually earned it where a lot of people would have instead double downed on being an asshole or folded into themselves.
No. 319820
>>319814I know you might know Marine from clips and I understand where you might come from, but Marine is actually very entertaining while not making sexual remarks. As other Nonna said, it's all a gag, she flirts with chat, chat rejects her and tell her to get an husband.
She's extremely passionate, works on lots of projects outside YouTube.
Half of her audience is actually female, you should give her a chance.
No. 319825
>>319824Management put them in a weird situation here, but it was unprofessional of FWMC to stay silent the way they did. Even Koyori told her gachis recently that there's a difference between interacting with/acknowledging men in a professional capacity for the sake of her career vs cultivating personal relationships with them. And I say this as one of the Ruffian nonnas defending the dogs to death in the last thread.
Making at least some sort of neutral comment, if not a positive, "Oh, nice!" comment would have been fine, and nobody could justifiably have gone berserk on them for that. Staying silent the way they did made a negative statement and I'm probably going to dial back how much of them I watch from now on.

At what point do you find yourself unable to enjoy a medium you once loved because of the fanbase? Shit like above is one of the reasons I stopped watching a lot of the holo girls if not most vtubers both jp and western. There's been a gradual enshitification of vtubers as a medium as the once "vocal minority" of unicorns is now the predominant culture, even when applied to vtubers who aren't "idols." I dont understand how anyone is supposed to look the other way and pretend like nothing is wrong when the space you enjoy your hobby in is infested with insufferable moids who now have heavy influence over the creator's content and the market. And if they're not a unicorn then theyre an annoying leddit-humored chode, a casual coomer, a vapid aspuring indietuber leech, or a rare insufferable lesbian unicorn.

>1. What kind of vtuber(s) do you watch?Not my oshi, as of last weekend…
That aside, I have a preference for chuubas that have a passion/respect for otaku hobbies, are laidback and/or goofy, have a gap moe aspect, or have good kayfabe. The ones I watched the most after Pomu were Amelia, Salome, Shien, and Korone. I'm also subbed to Mumei, Fubuki, Pina Pengin, Risu, and Roberu, but I don't watch them nearly as frequently as the others.
I haven't properly watched anyone from ReGLOSS yet, but Raden was very cute in the clips I've watched of her! I'm also very intrigued by Ao's design and character description.
>2. What makes you like a new vtuber? Design? The content?Content. Designs are important to a degree, but it's never what makes me stay, and it wont make me leave, either. I didn't like Pomu's model for the longest time (the design and the art style). I still think Amelia's art style is butt ugly, and yet I'd consider her 2nd in line of my most-watched.
>3. Speaking of design, what kind of designs are you drawn to?Korone and Risu are the first that come to mind for models that simultaneously have the kind of art style + character design that I like.
As far as designs go, I love cutesy comfy clothing, whether it's loungewear or something fit for cold weather. Moesode, sweaters, fur trims, big boots, round silhouettes, etc. Especially when paired with warm and neutral color schemes, namely brown and red.
I also find it cute when models have a little "mascot" on them, like Lize or Machita from Niji, just because it gives off a fun 00's anime type of energy. It seems like a very niche design choice, though.
>5. What are put-offs that would make you instantly stop watching a vtuber even if everything else matches what you normally love to watch?Coomer stuff (ironic or otherwise), and trying too hard to be funny (especially with gross or edgy jokes).

>>319835>"vocal minority" of unicorns is now the predominant cultureNot necessarily, the 60-100 people from number thread on /vt/ are just very dedicated with their astroturfing and roping in trolls and similar "unicorns" from unrelated generals. It's pretty obvious with how they post comments under the expo vid and immediately like them en masse. Same for other stuff where they raid tweets and clips. Even knowing that I stopprd watching girls and unfollowed most of them on all platforms save Bae and couple of IDs. Not interested in them and their fanbases, it genuinely has gotten out of hand (and tbf I do have less time nowadays). It's gotten to the point where even normies are like "can you pls stop this shit" and even /jp/ posters are baffled.
Anyway, what surprises me is how Fuwamoco are fine with being used to shit not only on stars, but other holos too. I would've expected them to tell others not to harass other Cover talents and to stop associating with them if they do attack other members. Maybe that's the kind of people they are and they're happy with those aggressive incels as their fans that constantly attack others, no clue, but it's surprising nonetheless that not even managers have told them to say anything. It wouldn't be anything new either.

I've had guys try to spin things in ways to make their exes look more unstable than they are. This is just another one. I'm willing to bet he did that (talking in her stream) on purpose, knowing she was streaming and she did GFE.
BTW, has anyone seen her be actually GFE beyond “You're not watching other vtubers, right?!” She always seemed headstrong and dumb, like Finana, from the clips I saw.
>>319807 Lol someone said it. He's cute enough. But the level of horny is not justified. I still go there to watch though. It's funny.
>>319875 Says who? The ex that says she's "falsely blaming him" for it. This board runs on US laws. Hurting someone's reputation isn't enough for you to be believed. Men (especially Asian ones) are better at playing
victim. People can be talented and generally nice while being awful partners. People can also do that thing where they only care about their own pets.
All I see is a bunch of people upset about their favourite Utaite being emotionally hurt. He wasn't a kid. He was almost 30 when that started, just like her.

So if you have something leftover, please send it my way. She always seemed pretty chill to me.
And I've heard one MafuMafu song. Typical menhera Vocaloid stuff. I heard he did BFE as well, so they seemed like a match made in heaven. The fact that his announcement came right after she got a job opportunity and seemed to be moving forward is kinda
sus. This is the second time I'm watching a male Utaite make an announcement about his ex where it looks like he thought issuing a statement first would cause her problems. I'm not impressed. I'm sure his fans are, though.

>>319899AYRT, to be honest? Yeah, I went looking after this to find what I "remember" about her being super GFE and I'm just not seeing it. A lot of the so-called evidence comes from the same period of often misrepresentative clips that still plagues other talents like Marine to this day.
The only real sticking points I can really find about her lean more into her making stupid impulsive choices, like the things that got her fired from Cover or her suing Delutaya/Mana Aloe on what now seem to be false libel charges. Like, sure she's menhera, but it doesn't seem any worse than Mafumafu, except that the latter has influential male friends and a rabid yume fanbase, which is seen more as a pro than a con when a male is doing it. And the timing is definitely
sus.

I think he's using the other dude to harass her, but that's just me. (I don't like him. He assigned malicious intent to all her actions. I think he was projecting.) She's kinda impulsive and dumb, but not evil. Which would explain the shotgun wedding and divorce.

I don't speak JP or closely follow either of the talents. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the actual truth is somewhere in the middle.
Sounds like Mikeneko was being insane from the beginning, asking for 24/7 monitoring and being honest right off the bat that she distrusts men and feels they will cheat on her. However, Mafumafu seemingly easily went along with it, maybe due to some combination of pity, wanting the BPD pussy, or thinking he could 'fix' her.
Not that Mikeneko's actions were okay, but sounds like she was pretty upfront with her trauma and crazy behaviors. And when you upset an unstable woman, lo and behold, she rushes out of the hotel upset, texts flirtatiously with other men, and such.
Tldr: I wouldn't be surprised if neither of them were great people. She probably did in fact have crazy behaviors, but was honest about it from the start. He decided to go along with her behaviors, for whatever reason, then got upset when it became an inconvenience.

>>319906Hard agree. If it was two sisters chilling, nerding out over anime, and having fun, I'd be so down. But out of all of the pet peeves I have for vtubers, uwu voices is generally a hard no for me, and damn do they go all-in on the uwu voices.
Having a character voice is one thing - I think it's totally fine if a streamer talks a little more energetically or expressively on camera. But the slurring the words together, the baby talk, making English sound like a second language despite them being white Canadian? No thanks.
They also seem like they lean into the twincest/sexy aspect, at least in terms of the artwork they like and repost. I've seen some anons defend this with 'oh of course there's twincest, being twins has always been their selling point', but I've 100% seen sibling-run youtube channels that don't feature twincest.

>>319905AYRT. Sexism is stronger in Asia. Women are usually blamed for divorces, getting raped. For example, there was a case in Jp long ago about a woman being forced to quit from local elected office cz she talked about getting sexually assaulted. If mfmf implied that she got raped and impregnated from that, it's dishonourable to HER. Women talking about that stuff are considered
problematic.
Meanwhile, he's on social media crying about what a
victim he is. And people are treating him with kiddie gloves.
There's also reports of women being told they “seduced” the perpetrators of sexual assault in Korea. There's whole YouTube video from foreign women. (It's not much better in other places.) And there's that Ike who accused his ex of similar stuff to what MafuMafu is doing rn, (right after 5 years, when his sexual crimes would have expired under Swedish law). The page on nyfco is full of CN & KR gachis implying it was all the ex's fault cz there's no police case. She was also menhera, but definitely didn't do everything he implied. (Both dudes are salty about wanting money, really.) From what I gather, Mfmf wants his ring back and Rushia wants the urn with her hamster's ashes.
Songs like “Not All Men” hit particularly hard in Asia. Women are pick-mes and grey situations like this one are used to crush a woman's image, which hurts her career prospects. Her ex manufactured a whole affair. Her coworkers will not step forward cz they mainly pander to males. Even Vshojo.
In most breakup situations, women are expected to grow and improve but men are coddled. Her wording is already a lot more neutral than his. I doubt the truth is in the middle. It's probably much closer to her statement than his. She admits her role. He's just saying that he didn't do anything according to Discord logs, but he left out Line.
“oh I didn't stab her with that knife, but ignore the bloody one”.
And most news channels are eating it up “it's Rushia, so she must actually be menhera yandere.” The Jurard ryona
nonnie here is probably a perfectly sane person irl.
I wonder if the coverage from female channels will be different. I've almost never seen a woman win those drama scandals on YT. All she said was that she didn't neglect her cat and that the previous cases are already settled, so it's not fair to bring them up now. It doesn't get more middle ground than that.

>>319940Talking about how he literally decided to not give back Mikeneko's dead hamster's ashes when they broke up, even after a lawyer got involved, and took them to his own home might make them more sympathetic.

I used to be a fan of his but this whole ordeal made me realise how much a menhera fuckboy he is and how patient Mikeneko is. Imagine going around for years saying you're asexual and just don't wanna date to appease your followers of highschool girls, all while you're married at the same time. Then, when it gets found out you messaged her, you decide to backpedal and say the one you're supposed to love is actually a stalker who just has one sided feelings for you, that you would totally never reciprocate so your yumes don't get upset, and in the end your actual wife gets harassed for YEARS all while you're still selling out your concerts. And then some random article saying you're married pops out of nowhere just after your ex wife is thriving and managed to get a VA career after everything that's been done to her, and now you reveal, whoops I've been married this whole time! But don't worry, she was actually an evil witch and to prove how evil she is, you go onto Japanese DramaAlert and start crying about how you were abused. Lol. lmao even.

The former can be fun in big collabs but I still never really enjoy the latter (and sadly, I prefer his design between the two of them by a long mile).

No. 319946
>>319945Even as someone who loves both of them, I can sadly see why you would have those impressions, the translated clips and the things more casual fans say about them definitely portray them in the wrong way, to say at the least. Kuzuha tends to act bratty and annoying but he knows where the line is and he is actually pretty considerate of his collab partners. To give an example, when he was put into a team with a lot of people he didn't know (during Valorant Vsai) he behaved really politely until they got more comfortable as a team and he only started to banter with them after that. When he collabed for the first time with Kanae he stayed super quiet because he didn't want to say anything that could potentially upset his fans.
Kanae isn't condescending at all, he tends to be kind to everyone and will usually try to make sure other people are having a good time before he himself is. He has a ton of connections (even outside of Niji) and everyone has a positive image of him, whether it's online or behind the scenes. Even if you think him being nice and kind is an 'act' he has somehow managed to keep up for over 5 years of daily streams, I don't think everyone would speak of him so well if there wasn't truth to it. He does mess with people often but he'll pretty much never do anything that's not ok with the other person.
I'll admit to being a bit biased but as someone that dislikes plenty of male vtubers, I think both of Chronoir are as respectful and professional as it gets, and they're pretty hardworking too. Being filtered by their fps spam is understandable, although they still put out plenty of other kinds of content, especially on their shared channel. Shame about the translated clips situation, but plenty of vtubers (especially jp ones) have that problem.

Some women really do have high-pitched voices, and that's fine. However, I dislike how FWMC purposefully slur/trip over their words together in a googoo-gaga fashion.
It's possible I have lower standards for Korone since I don't understand JP. But you can definitely hear the forced baby thing with Luna despite the language barrier.
Hell, listen to this clip of FWMC past life from 2 years ago. There's still some of the baby thing going on, but their English is much clearer and easier to understand, imo. (Still a lot of dumb baby noises tho.)

>>319979Yeah, there's really just nobody quite like Korone, and that's what you want to see in a Holo talent (I feel like this about Pekora and Suisei too). She's just innately the way she is, striving for a personally set standard rather than the popularity of the mainstream, and that's why she doesn't burn out.
I like Ollie, but she's emblematic to me of the other chuubas who make being loud and chaotic their brand in a forced way. People keep framing it as some sort of sad thing, and her process of getting here is a little bittersweet, but I'm glad she's shifted her persona away from something inauthentic that was draining her. Kayfabe is great, but it's only sustainable when there's something real in it.

>>319992She's a little more toned down these days, so I'd try giving her another shot and see how you feel. She's just not tryharding as much to be insane enough to stand out. Sperg incoming:
She feels like being "crazy" isn't unique, and has been done to further extents than she can by talents like Haachama. Additionally, she feels she's hit a wall in what she can do as a Holo talent, having already accomplished all of her goals and feeling like she's not of outstanding skill (not exceptionally talented in "hard" skills like art, singing, etc) where she can push even higher.
I think it's mostly that she's burnt out trying to make a character misaligned with her natural self stand out in a sea of talent, and her underappreciating the link she provides between branches with her conversational and linguistic skill. But she seems at peace with things and resolved to just continue onwards at her own pace, as herself.

The only suggestion I have to get a completely different audience while vtubing is to pander to vtweeters, tumblrites and gendies getting a western, tumblr styled or furry avatar. I doubt it's what you'd like to hear but I know some people who have a non-otaku chill audience of fellow gendies where mentions of fanservice, sexualization or loli is too
problematic to ever be mentioned. This is the only other somewhat sizable audience for vtubing I've found.

>>320012I've been thinking about this for so long. How do people even manage? I guess from what I gather Vshojo (and probably Holo) do edit stuff etc but I've heard Scarle talk about needing to hire her own staff to edit the videos. So they probably need to hire editors and prior for projects anyways. When I look at creators who have a team, it makes sense. How are these streamers managing almost daily streams (where they have to be entertaining) and then recording music in top of that?
The must famous streamers I know of stream and talk and are interesting. But they usually don't do extra stuff like songs, karaoke etc. All you find on yt are clips front streams.
Vtubing is probably more draining if you go the idol route and STILL do streams.
Plus, I don't get the point. Fans are still divided into stream watchers, clip watchers and music listeners.
Kyo didn't really do music, but I've seen old videos where he talks about but knowing if he would be fine before he had brain surgery. Tbh, his videos were more fun. I'm not surprised he can't keep all this up. It's much more time consuming than a few videos a week.

Vtubers from Niji and Holo can go on breaks. They can go on long breaks or stream sporadically. It's always been an option. Leaving the corpo is just more preferable than riding out whatever issues these livers are experiencing. Like with Sana, she left because of her health issues, and leaving made sense instead of going on hiatus while she recovered, because she wanted to pivot back to focusing on her career as an illustrator. Kyo doesn't have similar prospects, so you have to wonder what pushed the hard separation for him.

>>320021For talents in Hololive who are pulling in $100k+ USD per year, I guess it makes sense to put the rest of your life on hold and go all in on this. A lot of them are probably making money equal to or greater than a fairly educated professional.
I don't know specifically about Kyo's income, but I would suppose a lot of the more mid-tier talents in Niji or small corpos are making more like $10-50k a year in a field that may or may not be popular in another 5 years.
I wonder if at some point it's time to say, "Well, I'm almost 30. I can't live with my parents forever. This isn't retirement or house-buying money. It's time to go back to school and finish that degree."
Blogpost but as someone vtubing, even just a few hours for fun, I'm beginning to realize it does, in fact, take work and time to be a vtuber, especially if you want to be a GOOD one. Streaming itself takes time, but do you want to cover songs? Make music videos? Commission animations? Come up with fun projects to impress your audience? All that stuff takes time and money, and if any of these talents also have a part-time or full-time job, the time spent vtubing or preparing to vtube is time you weren't with family, taking care of yourself by exercising or cooking, touching grass.
Sure, you could just sit your ass down at a PC and stream vidya for 15 hours a week, but that's probably not enough for most fans unless you have a super captivating personality or a cult following, like Gura. Any vtuber worth their salt will be innovating and trying out new technologies and projects that take a lot of work.

>>320023Anon, deep breath, in and out… In and out… It's gonna be okay. It's just vtubers. Not everyone who you dislike or disagree with is a moid. Believe it or not, women aren't a hivemind. I'm not coming for your favorite or saying they're a piece of garbage for not making a million dollars like Gura, and I'm sorry my wording of calling Niji 'mid' upset you.
My whole point is that, yes, Niji has some people making great money like Vox ($1 million+ in superchats) and Mysta (~$600k) or people making money that allows them to comfortably stay at home with family or even purchase a home.
However, I wouldn't apply Vox money or Selen money as a generalizability to all of Niji.
Kyo's total superchats are estimated to be around $80k from Playboard. Not sure if there's a better source, but I'd guess it's similar on other websites.
Not sure how much of that actually goes to the talents, but let's be generous and assume they're making 50% of those superchats (doubt, it's probably less.) Making $40k over a year and a half isn't… a TON for most parts of the USA. Maybe enough to buy a humble home or apartment in a cheap part of the country, and perhaps buy groceries for your family. You could re-invest some of it into a flashy music video or animation. You'd really have to be pinching pennies to set up any kind of retirement fund for your future, if you're a forward-thinking person.
For some people, that might be perfectly fine, especially if the alternative is working a regular minimum-wage job. However, I'd bet that a lot of vtubers are intelligent in their own ways. Clearly they're alright with tech, and have some social skills. If they don't have a college degree, a lot of them could probably do quite well getting one and pursuing a more long-term career.
Alternatively, they could leave Nijisanji and hope to strike it out as an indie or Vshojo, where they'll have much more freedom and probably less of their incomes taken.
Tl;dr: Obviously we can't 100% say the financial situation or life goals of everyone in Nijisanji. The income probably goes a lot further in some countries, like Indonesia. But if you're making $30-50k a year (if you're NOT Luxiem or part of the first few gens that came out during the vtuber boom), is it absolute insanity to say, "You know what, I'm 28, I'm going to go get a college degree"? I don't think so.
No. 320026
>>320023Even the worst performing (in terms of numbers) in NijiEN, Aster, still seems to be doing OK financially. Depending on where they live, everyone in NijiEn has a roughly middle class level of income.
I don't think it's moids, but it does seem like most people in these threads don't follow NijiEn's talents as a whole.
Not defending Niji, all corporate jobs will suck one way or another, but the only Niji grad to be a shock or indicative of deeper misgivings BTS was Pomu since a lot of people (including me) thought she was devoted to Niji and will stick around no matter what.
All the other grads were kind of expected and seemed like they were more influenced by reasons other than the company.
Yugo was crazy menhera and obviously couldn't handle being corpo, but left on good terms with everyone.
Zaion was crazy menhera, but also almost cost them Nintendo perms, possibly put other perms/sponsorships at risk; terminated and left on bad terms with everyone.
Nina had a rocky start fitting in; both in terms of meshing in with some of the other livers as well as the (sub)cultural difference between vtubing as a western indie on twitch vs under a Japanese corpo. But it was all resolved amazingly well, which made her grad bittersweet but still kind of expected.
Mysta is yet another menhera, but had the most financial incentive to stay. People may gripe about the difference in opportunities between the JP and EN livers, but Luxiem is insanely successful and had way more opportunities than most other livers in the company. Despite his financial success, it really looked like his mental health kept getting worse and he didn't seem like he could handle having to be "Mysta". His grad felt overdue if anything.
Kyo definitely has ambitions outside of Niji, and I think anyone who found out about his PL will know it was gonna happen sooner rather than later. It's a bit of a bummer, but I do think he made a good move since he's so young and already has other prospects outside of vtubing.
Like with any career in the entertainment industry, success is fickle. Most online personalities and creators have a hard time maintaining relevance, I can only imagine it'll be even harder as a Vtuber with a significantly nicher audience pool. I feel like it should be expected that a lot of the "mid-sized" corpo vtubers will inevitably leave even if they're currently successful. People who act like it's drama worthy must be young or ignorant to how the world works.

I'm surprised the Vtuber hating commentary channels aren't trying to use old videos of his to hate on all chuubas. They do that with Gura.

The only people who care about that stuff are the people who already were looking for reasons to hate you (Calli is probably the biggest example of this), and it doesn't spread.
People actually like Bettel so it's plenty easy to divorce anything from his past from his current persona. I've definitely seen his old content brought up a few times, but it's always along the lines of, "I was worried when he debuted but what a delight that he turned out so seiso!"

>>320078From what I understand of Koyori, she's like the Kiara of JP. Streams consistently, hosts a talk show thingy where she interviews other members. She also worked as a VA and there's a clip of her and a weather girl (Sayaka? The one who was dating/marrying the Wimbledon meme dude and everyone freaked out.) from that one channel that's known for pretty weather girls. Her debut was also nice and fun.
I personally started simping when she said she wanted to kabedon her senpais. It was hard to find her again after that but I figured, “How many pink fluffs could Hololive have?”
Plenty. But she still stands out.
Tldr; she does a lot of collabs, streams consistently and is sussy. What's not to like?

I'm not saying that no one here is allowed to watch them, and I believe that they are hard workers and a handful of anons find them relatable and wonderful. But it's not that farfetched that a lot of anons would be turned off by this behavior, even weeb anons.

>>320103At the end of the day, lolcow is a drama board, and this is the vtuber board. I think most anons on this particular thread avoid the hardcore drama.

Considering the fact that there was complete silence for a bit, I was under the impression that the reaction to men was planned. Badly. The comment section on that video was creepy, ngl. But still kinda funny. The worst part was actually that the “protecting our smile” comments were not removed, while others were.
Considering their target demographic, it makes sense. I don't feel filtered yet. I'm not 100% sold, but I do relate.
And I've seen porn with friends. It was funny.
I get why the high pitched voices alone could filter you from watching entirely, though. I think part of my obsession is MC's design.

It's not surprising they had issues regarding dealing with perms and copyright since Japanese laws are crazy strict and litigious about all that. I thinks it's an open secret dealing with all the corporate red tape is an issue for the livers, but to hear that (allegedly) both Selen and other livers may be accusing each other of harassment is sad. We all know that not everyone in a corpo can all be friends, but it's shocking that things were escalating to that level behind the scenes. There's a lot of NijiEN livers I like and enjoy watching, but I'm gonna take a break for a while.

If something like this happened in Holo, people would still be sad and frustrated, but I think people would move on quicker because Holo has a better track record, at least publicly. See: Yozora Mel's termination a few weeks ago.

Doesn't help since if I recall she also stated she had problems with management and gen mates.selen was probably under a nda so it's likely she'll never out who it is but who knows maybe it'll leak,I mean people being happy selen being terminated should tell you how people feel with niji kek

I wonder who the common denominator might be…
Tbh idc if Nijisanji says "oh she broke rules #407 and 591", it's clear this has been an ongoing problem for years and this was just the boiling point. Selen was probably facing more frustration due to being a streamer who actually tries to set up special events, rather than just showing up to game a few times a week. Of course they'll cite Muh Contract and how Selen broke it in an attempt to get the first word in before she spills more details, but tbh I think that's maybe 10% of the story at most.

Are we all gonna gloss over Niji casually throwing their talents under the bus for bullying, or is this somehow Selen's fault, too? Legitimately interested in hearing a take from one of the 'but the contract' posters in this thread.
Everyone is on a witchhunt and pointing fingers at every Niji member, but that's the only thing you could expect from adding that in a public statement. Is this supposed to make Niji look good?

The saddest part of Selen's drama to me has been the way her BPD has been weaponized against her by people in the know. She was an incredibly productive and stable liver and when people first found out about it from her PL, the general consensus was that you never would have guessed. But now that she looks bad for the company (WITH more obviously justifiable reasons than any other ex-EN liver) so many suddenly think she's just an irrational BPD woman intentionally producing drama where there is none. It makes me so sad.
INB4 somebody calls me BPD, I'm not. I just understand that the weaponization of BPD diagnoses (which is, btw, very overdiagnosed in ignorance of the many real reasons deteriorating women's mental health) is a feminist issue.

>>320165For what it's worth, Selen mentioned internal bullying, keeping it vague enough that no one had solid evidence to suspect the tubers themselves being bullies, as opposed to a manager or staff member.
However, it's Niji themselves who confirm that it is their own talents doing the bullying, in an official letter.
Possibly hot take: it's not Selen's job to defend Nijisanji from Nijisanji.
Nijisanji made an official letter saying 'yeah some of our talent are bullies', and now Nijisanji is under fire for saying 'yeah some of our talents are bullies.'
Who coulda thunk.
But seriously, Selen mentioned going to sleep 6 hours ago, so she could very well be asleep or staying off the internet for a few hours. Nijisanji can protect Nijisanji by doing actual damage control, like, hours ago.

>>320165I think seeing three livers leave within the span of a little over a month and thinking that things are over is a little unrealistic.
I get that the Dragoons are annoying, but the good outweighed the bad. There's no way Niji was planning on announcing Selen's terminatiom before Kyo's graduation, it's likely their hand was forced by all of the outcry. Even her mama spoke publicly on the issue. And I'm glad that she was released sooner than later so that she can get back to business.
Management needs a huge overhaul. In addition to more than one Selen artist coming out of the woodwork to say that Selen paid them out of pocket after management was truant on payment, an ex-employee of Niji who left for Holo said that livers excluding management from projects was the norm due to management severely underpaying commissions. Citing an instance where a liver paid $500 out of pocket for something that management only wanted to pay $20 for as an example. This isn't a, "They need to wrangle talents better" situation, it's a, "They need to do their jobs" situation.

>>320161Yeah, I'm a little confused at everyone who's going 'oh typical BPD behavior' in this thread… Has Selen ever done anything wrong in her several years of Nijisanji before this? From what I understand, she did a great job promoting the company and planning events despite management pushback.
I wonder if this is a death by 1,000 papercuts scenario - for years Selen puts up with lack of response from managers, events being cancelled, big collaborations being lost, then the 1 time she rebels by tweeting 'Oh no management privated my video' it's 'Aha! I knew she was an insane BPD contract breaker!'

Were they trying to beat Doki to the punch somehow by stating the harrassment situation outright instead of being caught in a stance where they have to be reactive on the fly to the things she could say?
>>320175But more than once the company has contributed to unstable situations that lead to this kind of sudden publicly viewable surprise, isn't becoming open to the vultures simply the natural consequences? And regardless of how many stick to their convictions it's actually better if people can easily make the decision to drop a vtuber or a company at the drop of a hat if they don't like something. Keeps an entertainment company from getting too relaxed.

But actually, I was hoping to get more into Niji a few weeks ago, especially after a lot of anons recommended Selen. Now, I don't want to watch any of niji, even if some of the individual talents are wonderful. It feels like it's only a matter of time before they all (fairly enough) reincarnate into Vshojo, and I just don't wanna be brought along for the emotional rollercoaster ride. In Hololive or hell, even Phase Connect and other smaller groups, most the talents seem pretty happy and seem like they stay for years, even if their output slows down.

As someone who's a fan of a lot of the NijiEN livers including Selen, but not the company, there's not many places to vent anonymously without feeling my braincells dying lmao.
She's fumbled before with perm issues and was a bit unprofessional in how she aired her grievances like with the Fall Guys tournament IIRC, but she's also done a shit ton for the branch as well as for fans of the branch. She's mentioned how she's been given the newer managers to help them train because she's largely self-sufficient, so I hate seeing people say she's always been irresponsible when it clearly isn't always the case.

>>320215Was there anything genuinely concerning in the Bitch Catalogue? I watched a few of the videos linked and it seemed like an oversensitive child who thought their siblings making fun of them was abuse. That's like saying Enna's jokes about killing Nina were genuine death threats. IMO, they were funny.
Maybe I missed something though. Any links?
Excluding Nina from Discord calls is even worse in the context of Millie once saying (this is in an old Collab with Luca) that if she (Millie) joined a Discord call and someone just leaves, she wonders if she did something wrong.
“At least say Bye!”
I think Millie knows how things look and is particularly aware of how people feel, so if she chooses to ignore everyone's feelings but her own, that's not a good look. It means either she only recognised and cares about her own feelings or she understands others but didn't care. I'm assuming she's not malicious.
Niji got what they wanted with their employees fighting instead of them. I wouldn't be surprised if they threw Livers under the bus on purpose.
Also: what, exactly, is bait here? We like Doki and want her to move forward. Not ones gonna start a bitch catalogue for Millie. Or whoever the bullies turn out to be. We have other priorities, like breaking Vtuber CCV records for Doki stream.
No. 320226
Interesting. According to Cy Yu (who is a VA that has multiple roles in anime and Hoyo, so his claims of having gottrn far in the audition process are probable), while an unspecified other agency, presumably Holo, asked him to prioritize work with them over his VA career if he joined, when interviewing with Niji, he was rejected full stop because they wanted him to quit voice acting outside of affliation with Niji completely.
I already knew that Holo permits PL activity after a certain time period, but the information that Niji EN so strongly prohibits it was new to me. Ironic considering that Niji EN livers are on average more likely to need the supplemental income or suffer from favoritism when it comes to opportunities.
Not to say that this applies to all branches or all types of other work, given examples like Sukoya Kana, Harusaki Air, and most of the exID branch being confirmed to have day jobs,but it does sound like entertainment type jobs are banned.
No. 320228
>>320226I'm not sure how popular this theory is, but I thinks it's at least somewhat commonly speculated they can't use their voice for other projects unless it's as their Niji persona.
All the livers who started being active on PL accounts or made alts have never used their voice as far as I'm aware. I think the only exception was when Enna was credited as her PL in a song by her friend, but she got in trouble for it and hasn't done it since.
No. 320229
>>320228Man IG that makes sense, but if I was a creator whose only marketable skillset was voice-based entertainment (as opposed to being able to transition into another career path if things go south) I'd definitely skip Niji. Your finances would bank way too much on popularity that isn't even guaranteed.
Although at least for women, IDT anybody that could go to Holo would go to Niji? Pomu gets used as an example a lot, but Niji did take a risk hiring her and it made sense that Holo didn't because she'd only been streaming for a brief time when her PL graduated.

>>320224AYRT, sorry, should've explained myself better! There's absolutely nothing noteworthy in the bitch catalog, but it used to be brought up elsewhere to villianize Nina. The RPR unfollowing Enna & Millie is just false 4chan bait and shouldn't be taken seriously the same way the bitch catalogue shouldn't be taken seriously.
The other 3 Ethyria members were friends before joining and didn't intentionally leave her out, but also didn't make an effort to include her. It seems like it was a situation where they kept making small mistakes and misunderstanding each other. They cleared up their misunderstandings and made up a long time ago at this point.
Millie seems like she can be kind of sensitive and reactionary, but I don't think she's malicious.
I'm rooting for Selen/Doki too, and not to be a numberfag, but I hope she finally reaches the 1mil milestone!

An example of a negative numberfag to me would be Magni. He delivered good content while he was active as a Stars member, but would get menhera over numbers + he actually said in a Lando stream late last year that he was disappointed in the lack of loyalty from his magmite fanbase postgrad. His numberfaggery also negatively impacts his content because he can't stick to one thing and keeps doing lowhanging coomery shit for easy clicks.

It made me so happy when she debuted because she fills a similar voice/personality niche to Ange Katarina from Niji, who I also used to yume for… Except Ao-kun is less of a coomer and plays a lot more heavily into the "'GFE' for girls" angle. Plus the added bonus that I love all of ReGloss.

Vtubing has really attracted some of the worst subsets of online culture to its ranks and the ugliness really came out in spades here.

Assuming it's real, I'd like to point out its Scale we're talking about. People-pleaser, scared of offending anyone, zero boundaries Scarle. Idk how common it is to be in VCs but getting talked over and ignored is annoying. My solution has been to just text and tag people. Scarle presumably asked him why he's quiet. And he told her. With no tact. It's not her fault he gets talked over. It's like being in a Live Chat.
I haven't seen much of him so I can't say how coomer he is, but those messages (assuming they're genuine) look like a regular argument between friends. And he's the whiny childish one.
I kinda forget he even existed. Him having the guts to bully Selen? Doubtful. He's definitely a scapegoat at best. Tbh, I wouldn't be too surprised if he leaked it himself to finally get some attention.

Double-posting to add, but Raziel herself seems like a cow as well, or at the very least an e-thot beggar. I could care less if Luca turns out to be a creep because I can't even be bothered to watch him, but everyone involved trying to further push against Niji is all annoying as well. Is it just normal for vtubers to be constantly riding drama waves for attention? In Raziel's own screenshot, she's clearly acting obsessive. I would not have shared this if I were her.

My point wasn't about defending him, but that it's normal to get talked over by others (usually males) in VC and it's not something that Scarle can fix individually. That's typical moid behaviour: take it out on the person who gives a shit. That's an explanation based on experience, not a defense. It's common and frustrating and NOT her fault. And then there's my desire for Scarle to stop giving a shit, but she's too sweet for that so that's just wishful thinking. She can't make him feel better, and she should stop trying because it's not her job.

I'm assuming this is related to Fuwamoco, since usually eroge discourse in this thread is related to FWMC.
I'll say what I always say: It's FWMC's right to be adult women and enjoy those kinds of games. It's anons right on this thread to enjoy FWMC and their love of eroge.

>>320396I feel you, nonna. Just continue to have our discussions to promote a better thread.
>AltareSo cringe he bends back around into being good, whether you're into that or not depends on you, but it grows on most people. Yandere but in a goofy way. THE daisenpai of StarsEN that everybody respects for a reason. I don't watch a ton of him (sorry his voice filters me), so maybe the ShinySpicy anon can shill him better.
>AxelIncredibly unseiso man who says whatever comes to mind, so a lot of his VODs get deleted (aka not the best if you're the dedicated viewer type but can't make it to his streams). Socially well-adjusted and mentally very healthy so his degen moments don't rub me the wrong way the way a lot of male vtuber's do. Not much fanservice, closer to the brotuber end of the spectrum out of StarsEN. I mostly tune into his zatsus because he frequently shows a very insightful and mature perspective on life despite his age. Just a solidly nice guy. His fans call him aniki for a reason.
Neither are weird baity coomers IMO, they're solid streamers who have trusted the process through a rough start and endured to get where they are now. Interesting info is that they actually didn't have much syndergy at debut, and you can really tell they got close through working hard together post-MagNoir graduation.
Also worth noting that both of them are extremely straight, so if you're a fujochan (no judgement), you'll have to use your imagination.

>>320397The DARVO song.
“Why am I apologizing?” idk bro. Maybe because you were living with another woman?
Between the lyrics and the comments on the original vehemently denying that he did it to get clout off his ex-wife's new VA job, it's giving “it's me. Hi. I'm the problem it's me”.
The song is actually pretty decent if you don't know the story. All I can hear is “I'm being gaslit. I don't even know what I did wrong! DOESN'T ANYONE WANT ME TO BE HAPPY?” but I'm biased.
Sounds like DARVO to me.
No. 320403
>>320396I hate to say this but as someone who's been following StarsEN since the HQ debuts I don't really watch either. Altare I guess is fine but I get filtered hard by his voice and generally cringe demeanor. Some people like those things, so if you do or at least have a higher cringe tolerance give him a try.
Axel though is a tragedy, I love his singing and personality but he's just not a good streamer. His schedules are erratic, he hardly ever streams anything interesting, he makes big enough mistakes often enough that rather than "cute" or "funny" it just becomes frustrating, people have been saying that he has a lot of potential since he debuted because everyone likes him and wants him to be good but if anything he's gotten worse over time. At least at first he had the enthusiasm and the early HQ unity, nowadays he'll spend entire weeks doing nothing but 2 hour long guerrilla of some boring game not even he cares about, but then he'll show up in an 8 hour long League of Legends session in some random Japanese woman's twitch channel without mentioning it anywhere, so even if you're Axel starved enough to want to watch that you're probably not gonna know it's happening.

There's only so much of self-victimization one can deal with, especially when the supposed pain gets commercialized. What I see is a dude who's profiting off his ex. And I don't begrudge him that. He's making bank. Good for him. But I'm not in the target demographic of children who will blindly believe his side and/or try to ruin her career “for him”.
The court case will pan out how it pans out, but most of us will still dislike him. Because we've seen enough salty dudes trying to ruin anything positive their in their ex's life.

>>320403I think this is a little harsh. He's improved a lot and as for the current state of his channel, he's always made clear that during the stretches he spends in Japan, streaming takes a backseat. It does make him hard to kamioshi though as I think consistency is key if you want a lot of fans who show up for everything you do.
>>320409Most of StarsEN actually sounds up your alley in that case, I'd just avoid Flayon and Goldbullet. Given your taste, though, I think the other members might be more your speed. I respect ShinySpicy but unfortunately I agree with the nonna above that the later members are better as streamers and I don't find myself watching those two a ton. Bettel probably has the most blanket appeal, but he's currently gone due to an ongoing health issue.

I've seen this happen multiple times and it usually happens gradually because their fans don't ever give them shit when they start being obnoxiously gross.
>It just feels more and more like vtubing is just streaming without showing your faceThis is also true, there's too many people that just want to hop on the trend without actually wanting to appeal to vtuber fans and they tend to look down on them and vtuber culture in general, even though that's supposed to be their audience.

I always thought of her having a pretty good head on her shoulders but…
Anyways, they are not hired to be legal spokespeople for the company and discuss ongoing legal issues at any length, this is literally not their job. So, I see this and it’s like “Yeah, sure y’all. But seriously, legally, shut the fuck up.”

>>320453Someone mentioned Elira is currently in Japan on a work visa and can't decline “suggestions” to prove her dedication to the company.
The screenshots at 4:43 look fake, especially if that's Discord. They could've kept the date but chose to write that on top.
5:23 The outfit contest thing has been brought up before. OMFG. They gave permissions and then withdrew.
I think they choose the British dude cz they want yumes to side with them and do extra PR. Ike and Vox have significant fanbases in China (and other Asian countries with white fever, like Korea) and AFAIK, significant funding comes from Chinese investors. I guess they took the joke about insulting a lunar dragon at Lunar New Year very seriously. Looks like they're trying to make it into a popularity contest. Some KR fans were pissed about Chinese NY instead of Lunar NY.
You know what's sad? In her videos (intro and outro) Vox is always there as a supportive figure. Like a best friend or maybe even more. Many Dragoons put up with him despite knowing his PL stuff because Selen liked him. Same with Ike. At least she wasn't stupid. Glad she recorded stuff when she did.
It could also be to provoke fans to dig deeper into the PLs of the 3 for harassment purposes.
>>320480Some people think he's speaking in English to show he cares, but I think he just doesn't want the JP fans to fully get what's happening. Someone mentioned a lot of information about Nijisanji never being translated to English, so it's only available in Japanese.

For a legal case that only benefits yourself, Doki?No one leaked anything to be clear because no one can fucking think. Good job Doki on cultivating the internet’s parasocial pissbabies.
Doki is naive and ignorant. Overcome with emotion and can’t stop herself from ruining her every connection. Also her manager needs to STFU if he doesn’t want to hurt her case. I can’t wait for her wackass case to be thrown out. Can’t trust Doki as far as you can throw her. Had her chance to leave on good terms but she clung to Niji for as long as she could.

>>320466Because they felt betrayed by Selen Doki that they had to speak up. You’re so close to coming to that conclusion idk how you didn’t think about that. Whatever she included in that doc was serious enough for them to speak up voluntarily. Vox especially because she recorded him and submitted that recording. She’s not sorry for what she did; she’s sorry it came out to the public that she recorded it. She cannot be trusted by anyone or she’ll use it against you one day.
Sucks that she felt so emotionally tortured she felt she needed to attempt something drastic and go to the hospital. Maybe she should’ve stayed under watch for longer and stay away from the internet. Self inflicted mess (in many ways) by an unstable youth.
Also Doki is dumb as hell to think that the evidence she submitted wouldn’t be shared when she included personal info. It’s within corporate protocol to do an internal investigation. She’s Zaoin with extra steps.

>>320475>>320515I think employment issues would go to jp courts. They have a long and terms and conditions page for applications. But she's not a jp citizen so they can't shut her up. Afaik, if they yap, she can sue them under jp laws but she's got the right to yap outside of NDA breaking. She hasn't though. At most, they could sue to have those statements blocked in Japan. They're gonna lose their overseas cash cows, except the Vox and Ike yumes. Some of them might even leave if it's a choice between them and Doki, considering how fast the Live Chat reactions changed.
I thought they would try to turn it into a Chinese girl catfight w/Enna or Petra (or even maker it an international fight with Millie/Reimu), but it makes sense to use white men as meat shields instead. This isn't actually for EN speakers. It's for people who follow Niji only and don't want outside info, like the yumes currently here.

>>320591Genuinely confused what about ANY of this is DOXXING??? Of course paperworks have parties’ names and contacts on them?? They were never meant to see the light of day. Do these retards expect people to interact with coworkers as anime characters and euphemisms IRL? The most bewildering part is self-reporting themselves as the investigated parties in question then claiming breach of privacy wtf. No matter how you look at it, management just threw those idiots to the crowd like
>Here are your bullies, attack them, not us! How did those guys even agree to that social suicide? How can they be threatened by termination when the inevitable decimation of their rep means they’ll get discarded anyway, if not immediately then soon. Wtf all around.
No. 320598
>>320591AYRT, I don't think it's actual doxxing, either. I'm just telling the anon claiming that Millie and Enna weren't mentioned that Elira did indeed mention them, and gave the context in which she mentioned them. Because HER implication was that she had to come forward because she was sooo scared they were going to get doxxed by Selen otherwise, as stupid of an extrapolation as that is to make from a legal document that's obviously going to have their information on it. You need to learn to backread more than one or two posts in a chain.

I'm so glad there probably won't be these two on her channel in any capacity.
I think there trying to do with Hex vs Sayu thing again but Vox vs Doki. The thing is, people like Doki more. She's done so much as Selen that only (some of) the CN yumes who pay for paywalled 18+ rp would go after her. I'm curious about the voice call now,

>>320604This. Even in the Zaion situation, while I've qlways thought that she was not a good person who made obvious mistakes, Nijisanji made stupid choices and inadverdently confirmed things that led to a loss of faith in their word. It's just that Niji was lucky enough that Zaion was unlikeable and most chose to dogpile her instead of hearing her side of the story. I wouldn't be surprised if that situation made EN management cocky and led them to think they could handle Selen's situationthe same way.

2/ everyone isn’t in “agreeance” ESL-chan, besides those implicated who basically committed career sudoku. Everyone else doesn’t dare to touch the poop beyond being forced to like a few company tweets.
3/ “she lied before” just like you’re lying now. If she made all of this up with no good evidence, why is the CEO of kusosanji himself groveling for forgiveness? One (1) menhera gaijin vs. a multi million dollar company, tensai desu ka?

No. 320624
>>320622>>320623Tbh I think she might be crumbling under the pressure and taking a short unplanned break herself. Afaik she has a full time internship that takes up almost all her time outside of streaming at night. And if the leaks are true then she's the type to feel scared by confrontation so dealing with pr crisis will be too much for her. She's probably having her own breakdown behind the scenes, even if she's not planning on graduating. I feel like her audience would actually follow her to her pl because her content is not attached to the Nijisanji name or environment.
Also before anyone brings up that she has "Ill be back soon" in her pl bios, she had those since her pl hiatus notices, they're not new.

She should’ve just left earlier and got Vox to graduate with her but now we’re stuck with him around. She must have liked Niji enough to stay for that long. Now she’s friendless and no one worth two shits will ever collab with her
("sewer slide", unintegrated newfag with vendetta) No. 320629
>>320628Idk man, I'm still waiting for some solid evidence against Selen other than "she has BPD", "she attempted suicide" or that 3 members of this company well-known for managing its talents with respect and wisdom made a 15 minute video against her with definitely no coercion involved.
Can someone who's anti-Selen explain why other Niji talents have been graduating left and right? Even before Pomu there was still a high turnover of top talents when compared to Hololive, like Nina and Mysta. These are people who seemed like they had good relationships in the company and clearly still want to stream.
The small number of talents who willingly left Hololive seem like they had good reasons (Sana simply did not want to vtube anymore, Coco was probably tired after the Taiwan debacle and wanted more freedom.)
No. 320630
>>320628Huffing some major copium there if you think she he A. has no friends and B. will not get any noteable collabs.
Like Niji EN get to collab a lot with anyone of note outside of their own little group without jumping through major hoops. And this has been confirmed by Kiara who has complained on multiple occasions how fucking hard it is to get Nijisanji to budge and allow her to collab with Pomu.
No. 320633
>>320629People just want to move on and it could’ve also been content related. Niji and even Holo have been more restrictive than VShoujo when it comes to freedom of what people want to do. Like Kuro Mysta having a face reveal and streaming whatever the fuck he wants when he feels like it. Nina was probably similar, especially since she’s doing whatever she wants under VShojo with less rigid restrictions. Pomu went back to school, Mika wanted to do other stuff and hasn’t redebut, Zaoin is stupid fuck. Yugo wanted to do his music on his own terms, and now is happily doing that.
Coco immediately became Kson in VShojo so same story. Other holo girls might just be too stupid to do any other job or so unpopular that no one would give two shits about them if they left.
I’m sure a lot of livers were pissed after failed AR live which we’ll never know why. Doki Selen just jealous of “favoritism” whatever the fuck that was. Skill issue. Now she can do whatever the fuck she wants, she was just too coward to leave. I was a dragoon, but I can smell a twisted bitch when I see one. Like an inexperienced person at their first job. She could’ve left when she wanted, but she was a little bitch and pussied out every single time.

>>320629>Mysta, Nina, Selen, PomuNiji takes a healthy percentage of their income. The top-earners bail because they figure they have enough clout to transfer their fanbase to a new indie endeavor and not lose that percentage of their income.
The ones that don't bail either don't earn enough for the cut to really bother them, or they don't think they'll be able to carry over enough to a new "life" to justify it. It's all business, more than anything.
Also, any rumors about Niji "sponsoring" visas is all made up. Petra's LinkedIn shows the company she's interning at and it has no relation to Niji or vtubing in the slightest.

seems like he probably said something he shouldn't have? Or he was bullying her either way not good or was it to make vox back off by threatening to release a voice recording he doesn't know the context of? So basically bluffing?

No. 320667
>>320663That's the irony isn't it. All she wanted was the graduate at the end of January and the only reason this is happening is because someone at Niji corpo has a stick up their ass and decided that wasn't allowed.
>>320664We don't know, but I'm thinking it's the latter. Based on her post just now, she mentions that all communication had to be translated/done in Japanese. I'm going out on a limb and say that is a big reason why she has a lawyer. They clearly don't have a single decent English speaking corpo employee.
>>320665Do you really think she somehow planned this evil scheme as a way to get popular as Doki?
No. 320668
>>320664It's obvious in retrospect when the NijiEN livers became aware of the legal litigation and accusations Selen was filing.
Hence stuff like Enna's pre-emptive member stream where she told her fans to not risk their mental wellbeing defending her.
Selen's supporters twisted it into being her admitting culpability, but the equally
valid viewpoint is that she knew ahead of time the shitshow that Selen just filed legally (naming Enna aka Shannon's apartment address in North York on Dundas Street), and wanted to protect her fans from trying to fight with the rabid mob.
No. 320670
>>320664So far she and her lawyer seem to be on the defensive, if her last tweet is to be believed at face value Nijisanji probably decided to fire her at some point after getting some actual legal help and decided to go ahead with the termination after the lawyer sent the docs Vox saw (either that or they actually wrote that termination letter in 2 hours)
So my personal guess is there were only legal threats back and fort at least until the trio's 15 min statement where they confessed to read documents they presumably shouldn't have read because Nijisanji is desperately trying to bait Doki into make the same mistakes Zaion did when the livers that casually also considered a friend did a similar thing to her
No. 320673
>>320672Sounds like confirmations bias to me ngl
The only thing that I find weird to bring up is her dad crying which yeah, would be pity-baiting or would just be to state the stress she is still going through
Buuuut, neither of those make too much sense because the reality is that most people including big normie youtubers who not even knew what a vtuber was until a couple hours ago are already on her side and she and her lawyer would have to be blind not to see it
No. 320674
>>320671Legally "Doki" doesn't pose much threat, tbh. In Canada (unlike the USA), the law dictates much lower caps and precedent for the damages that can be awarded. There aren't those "$5 Million awarded in damages" cases in Canada like in the States.
The panic is obviously that Doki is mentally unwell and is acting irrationally, including writing out the full address and legal names of the other vtubers in the documents she intends to file legally. People throw around the word "private" but if she actually files this in a Canadian court, these documents will become part of public record, and can be viewed by the public. So, obviously there is an implicit threat there, whether "Doki" is aware or not.

All this being said, I hope Niji doesn't completely exit the Western market. As much as I like Holo, it's really no good for any major company to go uncontested, and no other small corpo has really risen to rival their reach yet.

Furthermore, unlike Niji, she didn't post a laundry list of grievances or make personal attacks in that rebuttal. You also have to remember that all allegedly underhanded and "manipulative" information she's given out was given in clarification to biased claims on Niji's part.
People like you really just fully discredit individuals with any degree of known mental illness based on your own biases without looking at the facts at hand or what might be causing the distress on their part. I really feel bad for anybody in your life who relies on you for support… Or maybe you don't have anybody like that, for good reason. Although I doubt you're aware that you're the cause.

I had nothing better to do today and somehow I'm amazed that out of all gossip platforms, including vt, that nyfco currently has the worst comments I've seen in my life. There's so many comments talking about how Selen attempted suicide for attention and worse. By all measures I'm an oldfag and it's been a long time since I've seen this level of vitriol.
>>320736I know words here and there so I can't quite follow along, but my favorite JP talent has tons of translated clips and even longer videos so I lucked out. Otherwise I'm an enjoyer of covers so sometimes it's purely based on how much I like how they sing.

>>320741>(like Cinnabar from PTN)Holy sex. Why don't they ever pander more to lesbians, I'd eat her up if she weren't from an Arknights clone. Not really fond of games like that.
But to stay on topic, Ao-kun's oversized suit adds to her goofy charm desu, it's cute. I'm excited to see what kind of alternate costumes she'll get. One thing that would seriously make me mald is if they were to give her a feminine outfit/hairstyle; everything else is free game.

I don't think it'll happen with Ao-kun because she has her comedic talent to fall back on and can get fans from that instead of going the GFE route. All of the times she's gained more viewers has been after doing some comedic genius streams like the entire MK tournament.

Thoughts on this rrat theorizing that Elira acted as a manager for NijiEN? I’ll post a summary of it but you can view the full text here:
https://rentry.org/thegodrrat No. 320764
>>320762Wouldn't be surprised, seeing as every ID and KR member who didn't speak Japanese left when the merger happened. Their lack of bilingualism was never named as the reason for their graduations, but they probably knew that with their previous management being eradicated, communication with their new JP management was going to get significantly more difficult.
Like you, though, I don't think the majority of the rrat outside of stuff like this is true.
No. 320767
>>320754This is definitely performative. Most people just watch Doki streams at this point.
Everyone understood from the screenshots that she wanted to leave and probably just didn't have the time and patience to fight for the cover to be made public again. It's one thing if you only do covers like Maria does, it's another when you're used to being in fight mode to get stuff done. We don't know how long it took Maria to get approval. Doki was planning to quit anyways, so the backlash didn't matter. It's like Mika on her graduation stream: “What are they gonna do? Fire me?”
No. 320768
>>320762It's also the pay they're offering people who could make significantly more as translators. There's a chance they didn't actually pay Shu or Elira. These companies run on the backs of free labour from fans (artwork for thumbnails & schedules, clips, and fan translations of stuff etc.), so it wouldn't be surprising if they expected the same from their employees. Mysta did say it was like being indie but with extra steps.
I think the actual bureaucracy is frustrating enough. Most people already know that JP company stuff moves at snail's pace.
>>320766Which would be exacerbated by lack of Japanese skills. Not being able to communicate is part of the incompetence. It is true that most people there have friends who speak Japanese and will help them translate.
No. 320770
>>320767Maria mentioned in a random segment during her Dave the Diver video that sometimes the process can take months. She didn’t give a full explanation of the process, but it’s the most transparent I’ve seen of the approvals of covers within NijiEN
At 2:28:58 for reasons why there are delays. There’s more steps than she talks about
- she forgets to send confirmation to the staff
- the artist or the person she’s commissioning work from gets sick and needs extra time
- the art needs to be fully approved and then you can post it (2:30:55)
- rarer cases is when she gets sick and can’t record
- all steps need to be approved in order to post. for a previous cover, it took 3 months because her original artist ghosted her. so she found a new artist, get new approval for the new art and then also get approval for the video
- the part that takes the longest is the actual copyright for the song (2:32:32)
- unless it’s a holiday, staff can’t be working everyday. they usually respond within a day otherwise
- karaokes also require approval

Let's imagine that Selen is actually batshit insane. She's a menace to her coworkers, she tweets and releases things without prior communication, she has everyone's address on file.
Is it the company's responsibility to:
A. End things as tidily as possible. 'We regret to announce Selen is no longer part of Nijisanji. We wish her luck.' Keep the public and other livers outside of the drama. Lawyers communicate with lawyers and people directly involved only.
or
B. Drag the public and livers into the drama. Release a termination announcement with a long list of Selen's misdeeds, and announce that Selen was struggling with bullying from other livers. This makes the public angry, so you send 3 of your (theoretically innocent) talents onto a livestream, where they further explain their misgivings with Selen. This (shocked pikachu face) pisses the public off even more. Now people are analyzing every tweet, every interaction Selen had with anyone on video, every mildly shady joke a liver ever made.
Could the truth be somewhere in the middle? Sure. But if Selen is LE BPD UNHINGED OVERWEIGHT PSYCHO, why is a multi-million dollar company with a PR team and lawyers making the situation worse with every move they make? Who does the responsibility fall on at some point?

(sage your shit) No. 320799
>>320792nta but regarding the money she invested I think people are more astounded Niji clearly doesn't give a fuck about EN doing anything to be more popular. Multiple artists have come forward about how Selen ended up paying them herself out of her own pocket because Niji couldn't bother doing anything in a timely manner or deciding their art was now worth $20 (I swear I've seen a mention of that number specifically but I don't know where).
I wish I saw more people bringing up the collaborations discrepancy in discussions. Out of all NijiEN girls, Elira has by far the most of them which is odd no matter how you look at it. She is neither the most popular member nor the one that one thinks of when thinking about NijiEN girls. Honestly it's the main reason I believe the rrat regarding Elira being management at least for some time. That and we now know that both Selen and Pomu have gotten collaborations/opportunities denied by management.
No. 320802

About nijisanji not caring about investing on EN, I'm more and more inclined to believe the rrat that the only reason nijien was launched was to appease investors pestering niji about not having global expansion plans, clearly they care way more about the JP branch and don't really bother understanding the western public.

From a comment under a grand rrat video (NGL, it was surprising to watch Elira and Ike in the Luxor Collab/sponsorship):
1) Even though vtubing is still a niche and people can know each other here and there, the fact that Elira, Millie and Enna have been close friends for years before Niji is afaik unique, at least in corps.
2) One thing people aren't talking about enough is how Lilypichu gave Selen permisson to cover the song in august 2022, almost A YEAR AND A HALF before she posted the cover song on her channel. Sure, these things take time to make, but this is glacial pace, meaning Selen was definitely stonewalled. And that wasn't the only time.
3) It's hard to confirm if Elira is in fact a mastermind pulling the strings in Niji EN, but if you believe Sayu, Selen, the artists and other people who have worked in/with Niji, management is indeed chaos and for a successful branch like that to work daily someone (or a group of people) would have to take the reins. Naturally, since the talents are already doing most of the stuff themselves, it's not a leap in logic to think some would step up to that position, probably someone older (Elira) or bigger (Vox). In the absence of management, a hierarchy of livers could form.
4) Jealousy is, unfortunately, way too common in entertainment and given how Selen was one of the biggest vtubers in NijiEN (surpassing Elira by 200k subs), how her projects were constantly shut down even with permission, how little she participated in collabs with the other girls (especially people like Elira, Millie, Enna, etc) and how blatantly Nijisanji favors Luxiem, especially Vox, it's not hard to figure out who bullied her and who stood by and watched because the situation suited them.
At the end of the day, vtubing is all about views, about success. If you were in charge and you saw someone brash, who can't even speak japanese to communicate with the higher-ups, who doesn't fit and who you think haven't worked as hard as you do, could you resist doing something about it? It doesn't have to be something big, you don't have to outright antagonize the person. It can be subtle. A delay in permission here, a cancelation of an event there, some bureaucracy in the middle, etc. Just enough to make their channel lose momentum or perhaps even make the person themselves lose their creative drive.
I wouldn't point the finger at Elira, at least not yet. But given how Nijisanji seems hellbent into assassinating Selen/Doki's character and won't let the matter die until they regain control of the narrative, you can bet Selen was being sabotaged for a long time, out of pure spite. Simply because they're still trying to do it.
I guess the only question remaining is: who the hell was managing Nijisanji EN?

It makes sense. I forgot that LilyPichu gave permissions back in August 2022. I don't want it to be true, because I like Elira, but it makes a lot of sense.
Selen probably didn't want to wait another 16 months for video permissions.
Considering Elira and Ike, who both aren't exactly top performing talent in terms of numbers, were both given sponsorships anyways, it explains why Ike jumped in.
Now Maria has to explain how long it takes to get permissions for everything, but 16+ months is a long time. And for some reason, producer permission sounds sus to me. A lot of (music) artists and companies just hire those on contract these days (including Nijisanji).

Sub-wise, she's got over 569K right now while Pomu has over 629K. Finana has 513K. It doesn't make sense for her to get 9 out of 12 of those.

Apart from Vox's public melties, he does have C-PTSD and ADHD diagnoses. Ike has Depression and Anxiety. And he's supposedly said on stream that he could have ASD.

This is just still going because the Elira/Vox video where they brought out the list of "sins" (just expressing disappointment in corporate rulings when projects died).
>>320955The weirdest part to me is how personally even the talents in this age range seemed to be taking insults to the company. I know it's nijisanji and everyone comes out mentally whipped besides Mayuyu's crazy cool pooner ass, but there is no reason they should take a coworker whining about management like a personal attack.

People are mad because she's also acting like it's fine that Niji showed at least the three ppl who made the black screen video legal documents when there was an agreement that only 3 parties would see it. It's just dumb to blame Doki for any of this situation when she lawyered up so she can graduate peacefully and everything post her doing that have been Niji publicly trying to humiliate her on their termination of her.
Nothing daph says holds any ground when Doki didn't do any of the things she claims??? If she had been the one who claimed she got bullied by Elira and the others then sure I can see the argument, but she hasn't so I don't see where those accusations come from.
No. 321089
>>321053>People in that age group taking things personally. I think that's what makes Cover slightly better. The CEO is older than pretty much all idols and isn't in that insecure phase.
In Niji, the CEO was younger than Nina and most people currently there are younger than him. And they're all menhera. Some makes showed similar attitudes in the past as well (See: Calysto/Vox, Xandu/Ike.) Both of them have, on the part, disparaged women they worked/collabed with for no good reason.
Now, some of the best ones are gone and the ones willing to bootlick are left behind. I'll point out that Nina was older than Riku. Till Xsoleil, afaik, she and Pomu were the only ones older than Riku.
And now they're gone. I'm not racebaiting when I say that the age thing matters a lot in Japan. So does nationality. Anycolor actively took resources from EN to give to JP, and I think it was because Riku and/or mangement thought of them as cashcows. At one point, even Nyfco was in flames cz some new JP moids got 3D before even Luxiem, who made the most money at the time.
Cover seems to have tried to learn about the market and grown with it.
Based on what I've heard Riku has a big ego and wants the CEO lifestyle.
The employees know at this point that they need to bootlick the company to get ahead. In the video, Vox is the one having the biggest meltie and we know he's probably said something. I'm willing to bet it was something that would turn his CN yumes against him. The other two weren't okay, but they were definitely not to his level.
That's the flipside to hiring menheras. They get a lot of money from people wanting to fix them, but their menhera is rewarded and reinforced.
BTW: a lawyer reacted to the situation.

It’s fine if he doesn’t like white people, who cares ? And the jokes he makes are the same white people jokes you see unfunny people make on tiktok. But they are ultimately harmless.
It’s the fact that he makes hating straight white people a core part of his personality that makes him so insufferable. Like for the love of god shut up about white people and actually be funny for a second. The old couple thing proved to me he’s constantly bitter and full of hate. His entire personality seems stolen from tiktok .

No. 321689
>>321683I've never watched any of Millie until the recent drama and there's a strong air of suspicion around her now, but I sort of understand where she was coming from back when she tried to say the company really isn't as bad to work under as naysayers say and there's a lot of positives. Ultimately at the end of the day, streaming vidya for a job that makes as much money as it does under Niji (or a 2nd job in some cases) is a luxury chance where the company offers more exposure, audience, and social group consistency than what most indies can ever get normally. For getting the benefits of luxuries in most things, there's some vague general expectation that the ones aiming for it have willingness to sacrifice or put up with certain negatives and work for it.
That said, if the environment inside was particularly socially strained and cold or mean (and maybe underhanded tactics getting involved) despite how much the positives of the company environment relies on people getting along well at least in a professional coworker manner, then the benefits suddenly seem a lot less worth it compared to long term mental strain. And all sympathies go out the window

I’m a yume Dragoon and admittedly got pretty hostile on twitter and youtube comments, I didn’t watch the black screen stream because I didn’t want to waste time listening to bullshit, until I learned that Doki supposedly kept a voice recording from like January last year…idk I thought I would ride or die with her but as someone who had a menhera friend record private conversations to threaten me, I just couldn’t believe Doki would do something like that…she’s so sweet and full of love and cares about the community so much, I didn’t want to believe it. Usually I would just ignore and move on but it has bothered me so much, so I bit the bullet and tried to listen to the stream, which is hard because Vox’s speech pattern drives me insane, like stop adding so much words to sound mature and shit, I hate that kind of moid the most.
Anyway, so right now what I gathered is that:
>Selen wanted to upload Last Cup of Coffee MV on Christmas
>Staff said song is ok but because graduated livers Nina and Mysta are in the MV she needs perms
>Selen said fuck that and uploaded anyway
>Staff got pissed and privated the MV
>Selen tells people to reupload, which broke the company rules
>She got stressed and committed suicide
>Discharged from hospital by the end of Dec
>Niji asked her to explain on twitter why the MV was privated, Selen said no
>Back and forth between niji and Selen
>Black screen stream said there’s several legal letters from past months as of the stream
>Only known ones are before 26/1 (date Selen wanted to graduate on) and 5/2 (supposed last straw that Niji fired her on the next day over)
>Her graduation request was denied because she broke the rules
>Voice recording is supposedly a test recording of a collab, which she had kept and given to her lawyer as evidence of unfair treatment within company
>According to Vox it was recorded around when AR Live was cancelled, so around Jan 2023
So it wasn’t the song perms that I previously thought was what niji got anal over, that’s the only misunderstanding I’d allow to correct myself over. I still think niji and those three livers are disgusting, and glad Doki got out to fully be herself, but I couldn’t watch her without thinking of that damn voice recording…why did I have to know about it, I could’ve stayed delulu and continued to love her. My alarm was her good morning voicepack, and I had to change it because I just couldn’t face her voice, I’m so sorry for sperging but I don’t know where else to wordvomit. Maybe I’ll get over it myself soon and go back to watching Doki and smiling like a damn idiot each time she laughs or makes cute sounds, or just being cute in general, I’m still going ahead with buying Doki merches, just hoping my yume filters would get fixed soon.(sperging and blogposting about old milk)

I haven't seen this discussed with much seriousness anywhere else (it was also likely overlooked given all the other drama with NijiEN), but I was wondering what others thought about the sexual abuse allegations against Ike Eveland from a former fan last month.
This was before the infamous black screen video released, so the post came out during a time when general opinions of Ike were still relatively positive. People had been quick to dismiss these allegations as schizo posting, but knowing about Ike’s PL history and his attempts with grooming his underaged fans as an utaite, along with eerily similar accounts from his ex’s (ie. buying plane tickets for women to meet up with him, the cheating, pushiness with sex, medication mood swings) it gave me some pause, despite most people handwaving her as a crazy fan.
>She claims that Ike used his position to coerce her into meeting up for sex and sending him nudes with the promise of him pulling strings to get her into Nijisanji EN and being in a relationship together.>Initially avoided naming Ike outright in her original post, but after being met with criticism and skepticism in the comments, she deleted her post and replaced the entirety of it with the single sentence: "Don’t watch Ike Eveland." before nuking her account soon after.>She was gone before posting any receipts, but she resurfaced under a new account some time after with an update. She had decided to take her evidence to a lawyer and was legally advised to refrain from speaking publicly on it until the case was settled.>Her final words were urging people to be on the lookout for a similar story to hers, as she claims to be in contact with other victims and one of them has plans to independently come forward in the future.I’m still not quite sure what to make of it personally. There’s a particular detail that stuck out to me in her post, which was when she admitted her encounters with him had been consensual and that she was a legal adult when it happened. If this was really a deranged fan making shit up for slander, wouldn’t it benefit the narrative more to claim she was underaged or if it was noncon? I found it peculiar.
I’m aware that judging the validity of allegations like these requires hard evidence, but if what she said about more
victims possibly coming forward in the future is true, I wanted to archive her posts without immediately dismissing them in case there’s any further developments down the line.

12:12 on Reimu
>>322978>>322976Between that and the other supposed groomer that Reimu was
not dating, she sure knows how to pick friends. Either she doesn't care or is extremely oblivious.
One of the main reasons people trusted Ike was because he's been friends with Reimu for quite a bit, even before joining. Between his ex, supposedly other girls that his ex was encouraging to come forward back on the day, and now this, it's hard to believe him.
>>323118It'll take a while to resolve, but this would be the second time Ike is accused of something like this. Even if you don't count it to the criminal extent, there's a pattern of behavior that a lot of people don't want to deal with when looking for chill entertainment.
