Anime fans have this deranged cult-like tunnelvision where they see their preferred consumer medium as the harbinger of pop culture, when in reality it's just as soulless, just as waste mass producible trash as the lump of manure that is disneyfied goyslop that only they deem to be better than.
This is a nip company we're talking about. They're usually decades behind in corpo/tech trends. You're lucky they didn't have a Geocities design on that shit.
Using either euphemism is equally gay. Call it quitting.
At some point the sheer quantity becomes its own message, rather than the specific person.
I don't think the medium has been going long enough to say that for sure yet. There are comedians or pro wrestlers (once the companies stabilised, which took a while) who've been going for decades.
You joke but that's an absolutely classic way Japanese companies screw with people they want to get rid of. Fly out on this vital business trip, whoops there's not actually any job for you to do here, just amuse yourself for a bit and go home. It fucks with you more than you might think.
No. New people quitting can be shrugged off as them just not fitting or having different expectations, like Vesper or Zaion. When an established person leaves that's more of a sign that the company has changed for the worse.
Not saying this is what's happening in Holo, but people like that can be some of the worst bullies to have as seniors. They're untouchable and don't take your problems seriously, and they have the perfect counter to any complaint because "they had it worse".
Remember Bao's previous scandal? It happens with indies too.
I don't think it's that deliberate. They're just Japanese, and genuinely incapable of imagining a large company that isn't awful.
Yes.
That's the positive take. The other possibility is if management has them all working flat out and then half the stuff they do never sees the light of day.
This is why it's funny seeing "But muh honoraburu samurai culture is too conservative for woke shit" type comments. We're fucking retarded, so when we see westerners burning their fingers on retardation it takes a while before we go "oooh we want to do that too!"
It always makes me chuckle when people post these charts (whether its Niji or Cover or fucking any other publicly-traded corpo) and it's a 1-day or 5-day price drop and then you zoom out a month (or 3-months for your typical quarterly view) and it turns out it's within the normal trading range for that stock. Investors and a company board care about the actual financials on an earnings report - not stock price movement, which is usually irrational and doesn't necessarily reflect the company's financial health.
I think it will eventually mellow out if current talent has been dwelling on it for a while, im honestly seeing more knee jerk dooming than knee jerk wagon circling around Holo for Fauna.
A lot of hololive fans joined because Hololive seemed like a safe haven from the bullshit plaguing entertainment. If Hololive ever became as bad as Nijisanji, I'd imagine it be split between those who are in denial (not not like the Niji kind, more like the apathetic "things will pass" type), and those who are very vocal about the well-being of the talents before anything else. I don't imagine the sort of cancerous fan base we saw for Nijisanji will arise.
Not to mention the Zaion termination statement beforehand, which already gave people a pretty good indication of how Niji handled internal disagreements.
Thats why the people comparing the two situations are so retarted. The Nijisanji fuck up was infinitly worse, it got the mainstream news attention, there was breaches of the law by Niji, DOKI NEARLY KILL HERSELF ,HOW IS THAT JUST LIKE THIS CURRENT SITUATION?
dude, this wasn't meant to be serious market analysis, only funny note
People putting it above the rest ignore the reason why everyone tries to be anime these days. Retards ruined animation for themselves and now have to colonize and appropriate other cultures style just to stay afloat cause otherwise literally noone is going to watch their bullshit. That said fuck one piece, if anything is a slop, that shit is.
I agree. We should strap all talents to mechanical chairs and integrate them to the great machine spirit through various biomechanical augments.
It is never not funny to see numberfags trying to pull out stock charts and not realizing they have now entered the domain of ADVANCED NUMBERFAGGING and they are grossly unprepared for the immense autism they've unleashed.
Fuck, now that I think about it, the slight dropoff could be unironically because Yagoo keeps telling investors that he's not going to Nijimaxx instead of Fauna.
Could be. It was too soon for Chloe&Fauna news to make rounds, but funny.Fuck, now that I think about it, the slight dropoff could be unironically because Yagoo keeps telling investors that he's not going to Nijimaxx instead of Fauna.
Stock price changes are often the market reacting to shit like retards.Fuck, now that I think about it, the slight dropoff could be unironically because Yagoo keeps telling investors that he's not going to Nijimaxx instead of Fauna.
