I legit thought Gura would graduate before Ame.

Like holy shit. Honestly 4 years is a long time but still. I hope she ends up doing back end stuff with Holo as that seems like where her strengths lie.

Remember to love your oshis fam.

EDIT: At least she is working with Holo on the backend.

"Though her channel activities will end, Watson Amelia will remain an affiliate of hololive production moving forward."

Sounds like staff?

 

[Elite Miko]

I can't even put into words or even gif form, what I'm feeling currently. Mostly depressed and shocked, honestly.

 

[Purrson]

They are making a dedicated US office for Holo EN in California right? What are the odds Ame is getting an upper management position there?

 

[RiverBear]

They kept moving the bar, and in my hubris I accepted it because I was 100% sure Ina was going to be the first Myth to graduate.

was thinking the same, imagine if she took over A-channel responsibilities on the West side.

I'm indifferent to Amelia, it was about a bet I took like 6 months into Myth, I made a bet wiwth someone that Ina was going to be HoloEN to graduate, but then Sana did and in my hubris I accepted to reword the bet to "first Myth to graduate"

 

[Wellful of Wails]

Welp, my IP assessment was right. Being an "affiliate" means she can show up for events or not at all and still have her character used to make money.

Kiara telling everyone she is working/drawling in between studio time makes me think she might be next. But she is Asian so I think that will see her through

 

[TKN_Lurker]

Man, I never expected this to happen. En recollection wasn't even that long ago. I'm glad Ame is still around in some capacity but it's going to suck not seeing her with the rest of Myth live anymore.

I need a fucking drink.

Some interesting statements from Cover:

We plan to continue selling merchandise and other items that are already on sale. Any future activities that involve Watson Amelia will be announced through official social media and other channels.

Looks like she will be in contact with other channels and talents, and her merch will remain intact.

Now it sounds like she is moving to management position, instead of GTFO like Magni or Vesper

 

[RiverBear]

Bruh, you can just be an affliate of Hololive? Just sit back, relax and rake in the cash while not actually doing any work?
Wtf?
Why didn't Coco or Aqua do that?

 

[Bingeamint]

I don't fucking believe this, this can't be happening.

 

[Hff201]

She should join Phase.

There is a page on the Hololive wiki for affiliates..

Category:Hololive Production Affiliates - Hololive Fan Wiki

A category page for Hololive Production Affiliates.

hololive.wiki

Two subcategories

• Hololive Prod. Affiliate Illustrators‎ (11 P)
• Hololive Prod. Affiliate Modelers‎ (3 P)

Doubt Ami is an illustrator or Modeler so probably not related.. They list people like Shigure Ui, Nabi abd Pochimaru as affiliates.

Sounds like either staff position or soft-retirement where she can reappear briefly in character.

Myth will be stronger this year.

Haha.. go fuck yourself.
