General Thread v4mirai: Brought to you by Brave

Tenma has a new wrangler for the next edition of "thirsty fox loses it over muscular men" stream.

So muscle snake, and muscle loving woman. Hmm what could possibly go wrong here.


never beating the lesbian connect accusations.

Bravo, Nomura.

What do you mean? It's peak writing. It's so amazingly stupid it has to be intentional, I refuse to believe any professional writer of any kind would write that scene and think "Man this is art". They had to have just leaned into the shitpost nature of it and went full cheese. They had to. This isn't the state of writing in commercial products, it can't be. It can't...

Especially when you realize that Jack would have to walk all the way out of the dungeon with everyone just silently following him before he even acknowledges them and turns around to talk again.

I hope Michi and Matara makes her comfortable enough to openly shit on Hololive because we need information right now and KSON hasn't been very vocal about how bad it was behind the scenes

For me this has been a rare Kson dub. I know this is a gossip site but when there isn't obvious bad blood on the way out, I'd want the bridge to stay unmolested. Not every ex-corpo talking head needs to be a catty bitch unduly; if there's real dirt, we'll find out eventually anyway, imo. Now, someone like Sayu or Doki, where they had to swim the moat with no bridge left to burn? Claws out. In this case I can live with her silence. And that includes if she were to have left Cover today where there'd be much more dirt instead of years ago, for whatever that's worth.

I don't know why Nomura and the other writer were sneeding about the initial reception. The mid-2000s Square Enix complete hammy nonsense played straight is far better than the modern Nomura of taking itself extremely seriously/pseudo deep nonsense.

It's great because they believed in what they were making. The gameplay is great, the story is good but what makes it perfect is the delivery. The emo-grunge heritage lived in this game and went so hard it makes you care because it's so absurd it feels like a teenager angst fever dream. It holds your attention and through sheer absurdity, people remember fondly of the game. The DLC ending is neigh-perfect as well but that's for Final Fantasy autists.

PS: Limp Bizkit was always a great band and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.

to be fair you have seen how the Holo fanbase react to CDawgVA just vagueposting. Or that one guitar guy getting removed by Calli.
Holo fanbase can be rapid and it isn't a bridge you wanna burn. She already earned a lot of badwill just by saying "talent freedom" and implying there's none in Holo.
Even more so when she's actively hanging out with not-Choco & to some extent not-Mel and not-Calli. If she speaks out against holo there's a real chance they forbid her from talking to them ever again, like the time they kicked her out of Kanata's apartment.
I guess not being retarded is considered a BIG WIN anyway since this industry is filled with a lot of them, from vtubers to management.

I do like the fact that NijiEN completely forgot Aia exist so she gets to interact with Sunny though.

But also the only thing Sunny said about Niji is she didn't earn much money from it. She also didn't really stream while she was there. So not like she was really burning down bridges

This was a lovely collab after such a long time

At this point if there was something really bad Rica would have said something about it but she doesn't. Maybe she was too dumb to recognize shady shit going on but I doubt she's that dumb.

I stand by Holo's biggest issue just being a suffocating bureaucratic management and nothing has really changed my mind on this. At the very least this management doesn't seem apathetic to borderline sociopathic like Nijisanji's.

Well, when they are underpaid university students, sociopathy is to be expected.

What about FoxuNews? Proctor gonna remove you badge.

Seems most likely it's Minto.

Jan 20th is coming up and if she's playing nice with a 1y non-compete it lines up perfectly. Vshojo have sniped talent basically the day these clauses ran out before.

There's no real info but as long as that's my guess.

Please, at least make your retarded rrat funny.
It's irrelevant, all noncompetes in US were voided like a year ago. If niji noncompete existed in the first place. Not to mention, noncompetes never ever once stopeed corpos from snatching top talent anyway and ex-employers lost every single lawsuit about it.

We'll see how this pans out when the lawsuit gets settled.

Bruh, they launching Paaworld on Switch right about now. I'd imagine lawsuit is de-facto already settled.

But also the only thing Sunny said about Niji is she didn't earn much money from it. She also didn't really stream while she was there. So not like she was really burning down bridges

Well it's a bit of a stretch, but you could argue she got her rheumatoid arthritis because of niji.

I dunno, my spoken Jap is like first grader level but I didn't really peg her as the kind to gossip in this way even if there had been dirt; she really did seem too airheaded to be catty, and her exit was quite light-handed as terminations (or Japanese talent contract cancellations) tend to go. Haven't watched her reincarnation, though; I don't know if she's been any more or less airheaded or performative since.

I agree. I think the oppressive atmosphere that exists isn't unique to Cover and is really just the usual Japanese corporate climate sucking the air out of the room and chilling expression, but "just the usual" isn't meant to be a handwave; Jap corporate culture is quite bleak. To Yagoo's credit, if anything, I think Cover may actually be somewhat lax in this regard, although you can only ablate so much, especially with investors involved.

the FTC's non-compete shit got struck down nationwide by Texas' federal courts back in August and never came to pass.

In Holofes you're gonna see an engagement ring on her finger. I gave it to her.

If you think a decision to respect a non-compete is strictly because of legal concerns and not because breaching contractual terms you'd agreed to is a good way to cripple future opportunities in the industry then you might be even more retarded than I thought somehow.

Show me such examples of people losing opportunities in industries. Oh wait, these do not exist! People only ever lost opportunities by obeying it! Again, noncompete doesn't mean shit when it comes to poaching top talent, literally no one care.
