All of First Stage Production's Gen 1 Talents Graduate En-Masse

[kushami tasukaru]

There's a mass graduation at First Stage Production

The entire first gen is graduating (Amae Ten, Akane, Rose Swing, Kamiyori Shihai) following the termination of third gen member Akezaku Machi. There will be a stream from the first gen members about this at 11PM JST.

If you don't know about them, their second gen has a certain Ryugahama Yue who was formerly Kusunoki Sio/Yozakura Tama.

Proud of them tbh, it feels right in a way to do it that way, even if it sucks for the company.

Isn't Kusunoki Sio a terrible person that tried to sweep everything under the rug with 2 reincarnations?

This situation feels very odd. The first guy got terminated, but the rest want to leave with him. So the group is actually leaving on good terms, based on how the company is handling it as an normal graduation.

So it doesn't feel like the usual black company mass walkout, but something totally different. Is it just a solidarity thing?

From reading it, yeah it essentially is.

Any more story here? All I see is from 4 years ago about Sio and just a bunch of allegations from people. Does she have drama as Ryugahama Yue, too?

I don't think so. I read a very good dossie some years ago but I can't find it anymore, unfortunately. I will try to find it later, the points I remember are about her grifting and seeing her viewers as nothing more than numbers.

This is interesting:



This might be the key part:

楠栞桜は麻雀が強いバーチャルYouTuberとして知られていたが、麻雀配信をしている対戦相手の手牌を見るゴースティング行為（相手の配信画面を覗き見ること）をしていたのではないかという疑惑が生じ、検証されるようになった。


休止後に生じた疑惑の為、楠栞桜はこれについてコメントを出していない。

There was a mahjong tourney and Sio was looking at her opponents' screens. This took place at nearly the same time a dude called "ec" released damning evidence that

As mentioned above, there was a link to Cottage's Hinano Hagoromo, Kusunoki Shiou was involved in the video production, Kusunoki Shiou was able to log into Hinano Hagoromo's YouTube, and the IP addresses of Kusunoki Shiou and Hinano Hagoromo's notes were found to match, which led to suspicions that Kusunoki Shiou was managing Cottage, a virtual YouTuber affiliated with Cottage

Since this was 2019 it will take a while to dig through the goodies though.

Isn't First Stage Productions part of another project octopus like Brave Group?

Yes. Yes it is. REALITY Studios Inc. With subunits First Stage Projections, Specialite and Vebob Project.

Funnily enough, they're actually capable of growing their talents (or at least FSP EN), rather than buying and stagnating.

Guess this is their first significant roadblock.

Every single one of First Stage Production's (JP corpo) 1st-Gen male talents have graduated en-mass.

All 1st gen members will graduate, not just the male ones. Akane is the only male 1st gen member part of this mass graduation.

Sio is also had a Collab with towa back then iirc where after it apparently she talked behind her back and it ended on a really bad note
I think no collabs happened after that

This was around the time after her suspension iirc buts it's at least 3 years so I can't remember the things that happened there

If you want some stuff regarding Sio and Towa, there are bits of info from this post.

Shades of Kawaii here.

This being Gen 1 leaving all at once because someone from Gen 3 got terminated is really weird, however.

A few days ago 2nd gen Akemi Haine talked about the graduation and the comment section has an interesting comment chain (translated).

Happens to be the most liked comment as well.
