As far as I know they temporarily hid some stuff to plug the leaking.Can anyone access the noa talent website? Or did they nuke it? I was trying to last night but was having issues with it and discord at the time and just thought it was my Internet.
If NOA's legit maybe it could be functionally limited to Genshin-related projects as I can't yet see any way it could support that many talents as it is right now.
Doesn't work for me either. Some parts of the site barely functioned anyway. They probably are cleaning it up.Can anyone access the noa talent website? Or did they nuke it? I was trying to last night but was having issues with it and discord at the time and just thought it was my Internet.
Wasn't that what she was as a genshin ambassador before niji?Yeah i already see that group working as a some kind of Hoyoverse official promoters. No wonder Sayu wanted to be in it if that's the case, considering how much of a gacha addict she is. Becoming an official Genshin spokeswoman would be a dream come true for her.
The content creator in me says: "Lol thanks for extra engagement/Ad revenue." But the viewer in me can kind of see why it may be annoying, but at the same time it is literally the best change in awhile because figuring out YT's algorithm without rendering your video title/description/thumbnail incomprehensible is a pain as is.
This is not a secret, most big channels do multiple thumbnails, then swap them in the first hours until video does good incline.Unless I'm understanding wrong, it might end up being annoying. You're browing visually through videos trying to find that one you saw yesterday that had X in the thumbnail, only to find it's there but with a new thumbnail. Or you see what you think is a new video, but it turns out to be one you already watched but the thumbnail changed.
It goes further: The great senpai herself is promoting it on bilibili.
Another one, the B2 event are going to sell Hololive Gen 0 digital autograph and some voicelines, more of a glorified NFT in a gacha format.

Looking deeper into Sayu's new corpo and it's a mess to say the least. I'm confident calling it more than just rumors unless Sayu herself says something now.
This is from their about page. They're still putting together their webpage as I'm writing this and sections that were blank a couple hours ago now have content.NOA Talent - Virtual YouTuber (VTuber) Agency
NOA Talent is a virtual YouTuber (VTuber) agency that provides talent management, content creation, and marketing services for virtual content creators.www.noatalent.com

The woman on the right is the focus atm. She is also one of their talents Eois Elypsis. Instagram video where she calls herself Quinn. She also fleshposts a lot on twitter including her going offkai as a bunny girl.
Her and Sayu's manager Raechit are mutuals and Rae even replies to her twitter post below.
She posted both on twitter & /vt/ to clarify that they had no affiliation with a rival company Aurora Live VR and apparently there was a bunch of drama with them.
A
She inadvertently confirms the leaks by saying she was trying to make some private playlists of their talents and even proves it's her on /vt/

Not only Quinn/EOIS herself but two other talents at Noa are apparently all ex-ALVR members

Reddit post
But it doesn't stop there, someone on /r/Kurosanji is claiming the parent company is a scam and even accuses them of doxing. Far from the most reliable group of people but worth paying attention to
The parent company is also the same ones working with Hololive so that's fun...
A lot of this shit is hard to dig into cause China so having the resident Chinese verify any of this would be helpful.
Now, that's the kind of dirt i expected form chink corpo!Yuefu, the guy behind NOA's parent corp, known to hire/groom an 13 year old cosplayer into vtubing til she got clinically depressed and attempted suicide.
Blatantly botting a milestone (~=1000 akasupas) for a 2view, with "fake" money essentially.
Lots of grifting when HoloCN was cut loose. Same with VirtuaReal. A-Soul as mentioned in the reddit post. He would just go into streamer chats and start dropping rrats, like the VirtuaReal members were selling nudes.
Also was found to have contracts with a ton of "indies" and foreign vtubers, basically telling them they wouldn't get Bilibili payouts unless they sign with him.
Anyway, not surprised Sayu does something retarded again.
"You signed to one nigga that signed to another nigga that’s signed to three niggas, now that’s bad luck." - Pusha T, 2012.
EDIT: more sources
In an A-Soul streamer's chat, claiming that he has insider info that they have a RMB11000 base salary and 1% split, which launched a thousand rrats and arguably led to A-Soul's collapse, even though he was proven false when Yuehua dropped receipts.
Him in A-Soul Diana's stream, asking "Will you bring China to the Right?" Note that left-right is reversed in China compared to the American spectrum. But obviously bringing this shit up is baiting a stream/channel ban.
Pink woman is collabing with motherfucking Hanazawa Kana
She cannot stop winning, her new songs under other producers that move on from her cringe writting are amazing and she's going straight to the grind right after the surgery.
She is at least aware of the rumors. This was her pinned message for last nights stream.Do you think Sayu will become aware of the stuff dug up here? This reminds me of the "forum's legitimacy" talk some days ago and, if you think about it, the result from her reading all the shit we said would be even more funnier than Another Girl's Story.
E:
I see that Yagoo saw Riku almost killing a talent got out unscratched and thought "maybe we can get away with some stuff as well" and is doing his best to sail dirty waters.
Maybe Gura shouldn't stream, after all.
The harbinger of chaos
Sayu has super quick turn around on merch. Most stuff ships in less than a month. I don't think she does preorders which helps.Well, at least they have a sense to monitor rumors. But dumb enough to actually engage on 4chan. US citizen - how courteous of them to provide a person to extract damages from!
As for specific service that Sayu need - things that chink company can actually provide are:
- better and faster merch production and shipment, they can review samples and do QC really fast
- better and faster animation production
Now, that's the kind of dirt i expected form chink corpo!
Her merch designs are also really nice so certainly not a lack of ideas ether.She is at least aware of the rumors. This was her pinned message for last nights stream.

I got my last order from her in a few weeks while I'm currently waiting on 3 separate orders from Phase. Not counting the plushies the oldest one is from Valentines and I know others have much older orders they're waiting on. I have a couple orders from Hololive that are months old as well but I at least those stated when they were predicted to ship when I purchased them.
