I wonder if the biggest driver of "Ina graduating" rrats is her being a part of that "End of a Life" performance with Ame & Gura in the anniversary concert that comes across as super on the nose in retrospect.

April really is the cruelest month.

Hmm... I don't have a snarky clip to make fun of this one, so I'll let Yamamoto-san handle it.

His main opinion is that vtubers should own their identity and having the company owns the IP create an unbalanced relationship where the vtubers get none of the says. And that dynamic can gets extremely exploitative (nijisanji or most of the small corpos that ever existed and died)
I think his opinion is fine, he admitted to not knowing anything about hololive and the only contact with vtubers corpo he has is with Nijisanji & VShojo.

Vtubers owning their own identities wouldn't make the industry much better. IP management is a minefield that even very experienced vtubers run afoul of frequently. The smart ones would benefit, but it would leave a lot of less well-educated and business-savvy vtubers in positions of responsibility they aren't prepared for. It's a bit like saying that instead of letting the government pay you in fiat currency, you should be given gold or silver so you truly own your wealth. Some people would massively benefit, but most would just squander the opportunity and get taken advantage of in various ways.

I'm in favour of a talent getting ownership of their IP after they've made the company profit equal to their initial investment costs plus a mutually agreed-upon percentage. Companies shouldn't be able to fuck with a talent arbitrarily, but neither should the talent have the power to destroy the company in a fit of menhera pique. Checks & balances.

I think the biggest driver is just that Calli is the most successful EN member by a wide margin and is likely to work herself to death before she'd even consider graduation, and Kiara has been through so much to get where she is now that they'd have to drag her away kicking and screaming to get her to ever leave. Ina is simply the most likely to leave of the three, but that doesn't actually mean she's planning on going anywhere anytime soon, as anyone who actually watches her would know.

I should be.

Actually, I'd be happy to let the government pay me in fiat currency. The government isn't paying me anything at all. They make me pay them every year.

Yeah but @Azehara knows all about Ina leaving. His Latinx brainworms told him so.

I know I mention the Taiwanese vtuber Paroniie before. Well it's her birthday and she's gotten a 2.0 model and looks less like shrimp now.


Shes part of a Taiwanese corpo called EnVision which from looking at it a bit more I found there audition section which I think is well done and put together as well as showing there breakdown of the entire process.

I'm pretty sure they only accept Taiwanese people but though it might be good to see what their entire process is for audition is good to look at.

God already punished him with a power outage for that. When his electricity comes back, he should try actually watching an Ina stream for a change.

Or you can just take the Fillian IP route.

I don't see why she would. After all, it's not like the company she works for is majority owned by a country that hates LGBTQWTFBBQ people.

oh
