"The nice thing is that you don't need to be attractive to be a Vtuber"

Yagoo - "Lol watch this"

And then Fishman took it to extreme. But there is something to be said that attractive women are probably better fit for entertainment because of their attitude and life experience. Ugly people often have poor upbringing, grow up spiteful and full of social issues, and are much more prone to jealousy which aren't good qualities for a company full of autistic women playing video games

My takes

Ryona: i believe the rrat that she is from AKB48 because she has the voice tic that they train their recruits for public appearances, is not something than a average Vtuber/Content creator pick on their own, she also has that voice training and come with all perks yagoo wanted , she bringing out the electronic kit was amusing, still if she is a ex AKB48 i wonder if it has some relation about the rrat of why Aqua leaved

Niko: where the hell yagoo got this woman, what was that song, what is that skit, the title of cooler Raden really fit her , and the absolute balls to try to hijack Miko fan name live, remind me of when Laplus was scared of getting YMD on her debut

Su: Elon musk strongest soldier, i see she went and got the idea of a dancing animation from Banchou, love how when she is struggling to smash the apples suddenly the haachama cooking song start to play, someone on my cord actually described the first minutes "is like watching japanese tiktok but it never ends", halfway i thought i was listening to Lamy

Chihaya: get a license, start the paris dakar rally where cars explode at random, end in los santos, start to drive on water, roll a character in a imaginary gacha game, show a kangaroo penis on stream, start to sing the first full metal alchemist opening while driving all of this in 8 minutes, and this woman is a hag if she remember D Gray man, and for some reason she can use a trumpet

Also her mom really know her audience



Vivi: Ironmouse from the Universe of madness decide to start by killing her voice and her mic,bragging her instagram like a normie, and talking some english, i had this vibe like she is a younger Runie, also is weird how her kansai dialect only lasted a few seconds, and is hilarious she remade the video of Gen 1 with her drawings

QRD? There are so many stupid baseless rrats surrounding that, you have to specify.

The rrat that she leaved because apparently hololive wanted to shift way more in idol stuff like live concerts and 3D stuff and make streaming secondary, iirc that started after the last shareholder meeting where there was a graphic that explained the revenues and some suits wanted more dollah

"Idol stuff" is literally the smallest segment of earnings lol, if THE EVIL INVESTORS want more money then they'd be pushing for merch and more streaming, which are the biggest money makers (case-in-point the card game) not concerts. Concerts are mainly for fanservice and company prestige, not sales.
Also Notaqua literally had one of her goals as "I wanna do a solo live".

Who the fuck came up with this moronic rrat.

Aqua's reason for leaving was wanting to laze around in her house without having anyone tell her what to do after half a decade of a very successful career, that's literally it. People need to start applying Occam's razor more.

Edit:

You retards in the discord need to share whatever you are smoking with me, shit sounds powerful. The spikes are Holofes and it gets offset by however much it costs to put together, I have worked in events, events are not very profitable.

And again: Cover's investors do not have voting rights nor a majority in the company, they don't even get dividends, they cannot make the company do anything. Any retarded moves are solely management's fault.

Whoa this is the most braindead rrat of all time
Yeah she hates 3D concerts and idol stuff thats why she wants to do more 3d lives as Sakuna and be a Idol

Settling the blue green debate once and for all

Edit: upon further googling, the shade of teal is considered both green and blue. She's a best of both world.

@Poyoyo & Jill This is for people pressing X on this post

Cyan is blue and green but greenchads claimed her first

WELCOME TO GREEN KINGDOM

Readed it at random, i remember that it cant be right because solos and concerts are sparse and the sponsorships and streaming are where the shit is, considering is a vtuber company is not like a actual idol company where they have to do lives every so often

Whoa this is the most braindead rrat of all time

And that was not the worse one we read we got from jokingly saying she was going to do JAV, marriage, pregnant, poached by a VA agency, there was some bitchfight internally, she hated management, etc etc etc

You retards in the discord need to share whatever you are smoking with me

You dont play Nikke, sorry bro you need to link your nikke account to your discord account to get in, we told you

"Idol stuff" is literally the smallest segment of earnings lol,

I think that's it, at the moment it is the smallest segment so they want to side or "pivot" it to hedge their investments. If I were having this discussion at this particular moment, I would side with diversifying rather than expanding or focusing.

You can't have money-hungry blinded by greed investors but also have them make semi-logical business decisions, it's one or the other. It's much cheaper to "just make more merch" than doing concerts. If you can find me the investor who argued for more idolshit in the QnAs then I'd appreciate it, from what I read most of them just bitch about Holoearth being a waste of money or whatever drama is going on at the time.

Also the ones who really want concerts are the talents themselves, some of whom keep grumbling about the limited amount of Solo lives per year.

The truth of the matter in my eyes is that the ones obsessed with investors are not the C-suite at Cover HQ but instead the western fanbase, who have turned people who own less than 1% of the currently public stock into boogeymen and escape goats for all of the issues that were already there, only that now Niji has made everyone and their mother into jaded contrarians of the industry, and now we have to take every blunder or yab as the end of all things because an honest mistake or a resolved issue can't just be what it seems, no, everything is an evil conspiracy plot now.

 

[El Rrata]

Yagoo still has majority ownership. Investors ain't shit.

 

[PekoWick]

Concerts are mainly for fanservice and company prestige, not sales.

Sololive is very profitable. It has merch, physical tickets, stream tickets and sponsorship. That literally prints money for cover and the talent.

From: We are a company like AKB48
To: We have literal AKB48 in our company

 

[La+ de Central Norte]

This dude got Coniku being Su right but failed at the 774 member prediction (sorry brothers but there are none in this gen)

TLDR: Vivi and Riona came Sisters groups of AKB48 (Flow Glow 48)
Nico is a pretty popular IRL japanese youtuber
Su and Chihaya were pretty small vtuber indies

 

[nooternun]

Not enough Radens imo, should have an entire gen of Raden instead

Rodan, Redan, Rudan and Ridan. This was a comedy gen, next I want a JP theater kid generation.

So the usual, a mix of really popular and not so popular. I am glad small indies can still get in if they impress the recruiters and interviewers.

If only a certain retirement home can get it into their thick heads that hiring and investing in small indies is actually a good thing instead of just poaching already big talents or graduated ex-corpos for a quick viewership increase

so your saying being pretty somehow shields you from being a catty bitchy backstabbing whore like we see with basically every vtuber?

i don't think looks are the problem here i'm 90% sure it's that shitty people + shitty enviroment = shitty im ugly as sin and I don't think im horrid offline.

Their brand is not strong enough to carry small time vtuber.

 

[kushami tasukaru]

From the little I read in skkr, the JP side are more positive towards the former indies as they seem to understand the essence of Vtubing and the struggles of being one (also relates to the Cinderella story of an indie joining corpo and rising up in success).

They're not really fans of "fallen idols" and "fleshstreamer who is already popular" who they consider use the company for clout.

FWIW the current Flow Glow popularity from most popular to least is Chihaya, Su, Vivi, Nico, Riona.
