They shouldn't bend to their every whim no, but when we're talking about the creative direction of their own character (in a medium where the wall between talent and character is paper thin) it's hard to see a case where they shouldn't ultimately let her run with it. Losing a talent over a money...

Yeah but who's going to go out to fucking Shikoku to stalk her?

Meh. We know she and management disagreed about her future direction. We know management recently made a decision to return to BiliBili. We know poor labour practices are still common in Japan. Mismanagement seems likely - not certain, but likely. They generally have a talent agency who works...

Maybe she wanted to be clever and Cover said she had to keep being Baqua.

They're a fraction of what they were. Japan is more like that than the UK, always has been. They even have their own TV license, the NHK man. Nah, once you start trying to solve personnel problems with policies and rules it's the beginning of the end. The companies that remain worthwhile do so...

They could be using drugs 🌈

They don't do 3d rendered porn AFAIK if that's what you're after. They do streams that are fetishistic and are clearly understood to be for jerking off to, none of the "teehee whoopsie I just toggled my toggles", using the model in the same way as a typical vtuber zatsudan stream i.e. it's not...

People get tired of just being teased when it's never going anywhere. With Vallure you know they actually deliver and that kind of takes the pressure off, it means they don't need to act sexy all the time.

How much were talents told about the company's finances? Was there ever any "we need x viewers by date y" type conversation about the future? Were they told that certain things were too expensive, or did management always act like there was plenty of money to throw around? Did any of this change...

Could be they're trying to get their identity "leaked" in a way that's not traceable to them. It's generally in a chuuba's interest to have a known "roommate account" where fans can find them, especially if their agency isn't looking so great right now (e.g. idol), it gives them much more...

In theory no but in practice mostly yes. The primary caregiver gets full custody (there was no such thing as split custody until like literally last month) and for a young child it's incredibly unlikely for that to not be the mother outside of like a genuine psychotic break or something.

Huh? Wasn't it made by a dream team at the height of their powers, in the last days of the SNES when they knew the hardware back to front and could make it do things undreamed of? Crikey, half a million subscribers and she was only pulling 0.1 Stronnys? I knew the shorts subscribers didn't have...

Did you forget the HE talents?

Yes and no. There's some slightly obscure vocabulary and a lot of it is about obscure grammar rules, so it depends if you're the kind of person who notices whether a sentence is slightly wrong or not. JLPT is purely listening and reading so it's pretty artificial as a measure of Japanese...

Give her time. Her voice already has a mommyish tinge and it'll get more so as she gets older. And every woman turns to GFE eventually.

Meh, if he didn't want other people making up their own canon for the second half of the series maybe he should have made the effort to actually write it some time in the 25+ years since he said he would.

There's a spectrum from mostly good to mostly evil, which is exactly what shades of grey is. The Starks are mostly good but you've still got them breaking vows, undermining the defense of the realm, starting pointless wars and talking up lives as assassins. The Lannisters are mostly evil but...

If it were me I'd do it like a record label/publisher - your model etc. are bought with an advance, you earn a lower cut until you've paid that back, but then the talent ultimately gets ownership. If it was a case like this of starting the company with the talents as well then I'd probably...

In an underground group like Tone Jewel I'd think she probably ended up doing some gigs solo or at most as two. But still a bit different as you've got some staff support (even if idols quite often end up doing their own choreography etc., and by Keiki's account the Tone Jewel guy doesn't seem...
