It will always depend on whether they have a set plan with the will to achieve them also to a certain extent the circumstances of their departure and how they maintain their network.Question to Ex-Corpo watchers:
Do you think their content improved after they left their Corpo?
We often reference how Kson left Hololive for more talent freedom at Vshojo but all she ever does is get chummy with Gravure Idols. I can respect that, but her content as Coco was just so much better.
Lando/ Caspurr seems to be similar case of someone leaving their corpo only for their content to take a nosedive.
What are some examples of Ex-Corpos clearly taking advantage of their new freedom to make new and better content? And I am asking about the content because its obvious that all the Ex-Nijis are having a better life, but that doesnt mean the content got any good.
I just have the impression that a lot of People just kinda stay the same, like Randon or Dooby. They don't really seem to do much that was actually forbidden before but they didn't turn lazy either.
Two cases from JP.
Suou Patra graduated from 774inc keeping her IP. She still maintains her regular ASMR also with a constant regular gaming/zatsu/cooking schedule (posted regularly) at her own pace (tended to fully explore RPGs as much as she can) so her fans can know what to expect.
She also maintains working relationship with her 774 colleagues and was invited to Inaba Haneru's 3D live last year. Also good networking which expands her to both Cover (as seen with Fubuki and FWMC) and Anycolor (Yorumi Rena and Shiina Yuika) as well as other prominent indies such as Shigure Ui.
Her channel growth is steady and has surpassed everyone in 774inc. Views are stable in 4view territory and fluctuates depending on content (5view for popular Final Fantasy games).
Still has regular JP clippers and when she interacts with holo talents, EN clippers are there.
Yaezawa Natori's graduation from dotLive did not look amicable even before the announcement as she even omitted naming her corpo during her introductions. This shows after her reincarnation as Kayamori Emma as some of her networks also are close to other dotLive members so when there are large collaborations, if there are dotLive members she will not be there therefore reducing her networking potential. Also not sure why but she hasn't even interacted with Asano Ruri even once after reincarnation even though they were quite close during her tine in dotLive (near the end of her corpo time they had an emotional zatsu collab).
She set some goals in her debut stream but doesn't seem to have worked forward to achieving them apart from a couple cover songs and one 3D showcase in three years. Scheduling is inconsistent as well, initially she posted regular schedules but now the only constant thing is the weekend zatsu. Might not feel significant but how fans perceive your effort is important.
In the beginning she retained around 1/5 of her corpo viewers (around 200 CCV) but recently she's dropped to barely over 100 and sometimes dropped to 2view. Channel growth has stagnated around 24k subs despite an initial influx of ex Natori fans finding her and recent outfit updates which gets increasingly more risque (way different than her seiso looking Natori model).
Most of her ex colleagues growth in dotLive has recovered from the Yozakura Tama incident and the recent VPI members have had reasonable growth (Sharaku Setsuna is close to 100k subs).
JP clips have dried up and no EN clips.
Anyways have three hours of Patra sneeze clip compilation from 2018 to 2024.
