FISHMAN GROW SOME GONADS YOU CHINESE CUCK!
His gonads are lost to the lathe.
It's very simple; Offkai is Fishman's Israel.

Spend money on your own company? No! give it to Offkai!

Offkai attacks the USS Pipkin Pippa? Give money to our greatest ally, Offkai!

Artists are getting screwed by the industry? Here is how Offkai is the most affected!

Hasnt he only been giving direct support to Offkai via the paying off the artist alleys? these come with the benefit and PR of being seen as supporting your artists more than doing it just to support the con itself
If he hasnt, besides just paying whatever dues to get the talent in, because its still a good enough time for them in spite of the Yamanbay, then imo this is just a retarded post

Don't give money to people who hate you. Whether it's directly or indirectly. Do not support organizations that have openly stated they want to destroy you.

2023 - Phase is a sponsor, not for the vendor hall but for the event in general. As far as I know they also already had a concert in this one, which won't have been free.
2024 - Phase is a sponsor for the vendor hall, third on the list only below V4Mirai and Idol. They also had a concert spot again, which won't have been free.
2025 - Phase is once again a sponsor for the vendor hall, they are first on the list. These sponsor lists are not arbitrary and the one who pays the most gets to be on top.

And then you have the guy telling you that Offkai wouldn't have been able to stay around without Phase. They're paying.

Edit: 2022 didn't have a sponsor page, but Phase guests are featured 3rd and they had more guests than anyone else. And I guess this was the year where they essentially paid for Pippa to come against the wishes of the organisers? So they paid for Offkai since the start pretty much.

What makes Anaheim a good option, exactly?
Anaheim Convention center actually has the ability to host a large convention, with a couple of airports that are in a reasonable distance.

Also, despite being in Commiefornia and hosting Disneyland, Orange County is significantly less pozzed than the rest of the state.

Edit: Las Vegas could also have good access and space, but Vegas may have the same issues with the kind of people who would be able to run it.

Plenty of A-cons across the US but the issue is that Offkai targets the vtuber niche while most will focus on general anime bullshitery, which is the only real thing that makes Offkai special and why people look at it as an opportunity. Someone has to step up to not only start a new con, but also one focused on something as relatively niche as Vtubing compared to the other shit you could make cons for
But Vtubing is also mainly made up of smaller vendors and indies. You can't just have a con in the middle of bumfuck nowhere that's impossible to get to, or one that has a stupidly small space for Artist Alley tables. A new vtuber con would need to be in a venue that's easy for smaller artists and vendors to get to, and allow them to set up. And have decent wifi for meet and greets/roaming events. Which means you're looking at large cities, and most of the people who run cons in those areas are just as bad as Offkai's staff.

California is out in the middle of nowhere, you only get Californians to show up which I guess with the low numbers is sufficient. If you want reach it would have to be on the East Coast. But then again Vtubing is an extreme niche over in the West so it wouldn't make sense $$$ wise.

Which to be fair Offkai still doesn't sound worth it. Some things ain't big enough to justify large events

See you at 2026 offkai with all this

Joking aside. It really isn't cope tbh. He might not want to rock the boat but he isn't one to put up with it when someone maliciously break contracts. He fired yuri for breaching hers and I vaguely remember him saying he settled with the dude who scammed them with the plushies. If the offkai contract theory is true he should be running this by a lawyer to see if there's something that can be done there. Like I said in the other thread, they're probably doing the bare minimum just to fulfill their obligations and move on somewhere else.
If he still putting money on that con just as an advertisement he's being retarded because even if they don't have events at this point is very obvious the people running it will fuck with them and shield themselves with "oh geez sowy we're incompetent". I know running a con isn't child's play but for the money he's investing in it he could partner with someone who wants to get a con off the ground and go all in, plenty of people complain a lot about the con being in a shithole like cali, there's gotta be somewhere else you can have a small con in the damn us, right?

Well, the good thing is that VShojo have stopped sponsoring after last year.
It's nice to be a fan of such a grand and morally upstanding corpo like VShojo and not Phase Connect or V-Dere, who will gladly support the enemy.

I suggest you all change your allegiances too.

I left that shithole state (I lived in the far north of it, so more "nowhere") for a slightly less filthy hole recently, and I don't really know what the fuck you're on about.

You were in California

You didn't have to travel to it you were already there.

Do I have to pull out a map and demonstrate how far it is away from the rest of the US and how much desert and fucking nothing there is in the states East of it like Nevada, Wyoming, Utah. The feasible thing to do would be to fly there but you'd really want to go. If you had a con in Philly, Jersey or whatever you have many states from as West as Illinois or as South of Florida to access.

>Offkai is shit because it's ran by infected commiefornians, so there should be a con in Philly, Jersey or Illinois instead.
>Instead of cancer, lets go for cancer, AIDS, or cancerAIDS instead.

Florida isn't a bad suggestion though.

From a locational aspect, you either want to do a convention in LA, San Fran, major Texas City, Chicago or Atlanta. Atlanta makes a lot more sense because if people are flying, it's the easiest one to get to.
