I remember when Idol was announced I assumed the Jewcorp was a scam, over 2022-2023 I then actually thought it was a legit company holding its own. Then I thought it was a decent company just with some bad egg talents. It appears the corpo was a trainwreck the whole time?
From the start it always seemed like they promised way too much and then the donothons started happening frequently.

They got their choice of model, they got free streaming equipment as well, but no talent manager? That's rather fucked up to me.

At this point, I'm genuinely impressed by how much Aviel was able to scam everyone involved:
-Talents had no talent manager
-Fans never got their merch and there was likely no warehouse for distribution
-Brave bought a vtuber company where the top performers leave immediately and are now responsible for the merch
This man fucked over everyone. I can't even be mad, well done Aviel, well done.

Kek, idk how many times I have wished I could go back in time and BTFO people who were dicksucking an obvious scammer in this damn industry, rest in piss Aviel, I always knew you were a child-raping kike.

Holy shit, I just remember about the clipping program drama. Every fucking thing involved was a scam. Did Legal Mindset get promised a payment for writing up a super retardedly generous contract for PR points and then never paid the guy because he never accepted it?

HOW DEEP DOES THIS GO, AVIEL?!

Taiga doing an historical recap of Idol and Brave, she is going deeper that any of the other ES girls about the details of the corporations.

Edit: lol, it really fells like a mom giving you a talk. No wonder they call her the mom of Eternals.

Let's get this straight: Brave has bought a vtuber company that won't have its top performers and also bought the right to refund all of that company's unshipped merch.

Fucking lol.

I, for one, will be watching Brave's Idol Rehabilitation Program with great interest

Unless Lisa sold her IP rights to Idol as the cost of getting in, Brave wouldn't have any claim to the rights. For most Idol talents, their IPs were created by, and therefore property of, Idol, and its successor Brave would inherit those rights. Lisa might have to give up her new model, but would retain the rights to the underlying character and previous model (again, presuming she didn't sign them away).
And if she’s smart, she didn’t.

Wait, they’re not taking it over?

I don't want to be on a Mossad dossier, so I'm not sending that follow request, but if any of you are interested, she seems to let most people follow her. I am a bit curious if there's any behind-the-scenes talk on the alt though.

As much of a massive L brave took here it will be fascinating to see if they can salvage this if they will even try.

it's not like the remains are untalented or unable to pull in numbers with the right motivation or marketing. Roca and Lisa are still some of the best EN singers around and while im unfamiliar with the rest there is definitely potential to be tapped out of all of them

I would rather see brave succeed i guess is what im saying and fix their other talents too.

I think they could salvage this if they wanted to put in the effort and money, and right now it seems they do. A lot of the strategies Phase Connect does to boost their brand and bring in new viewers could be repurposed by Idol/Brave without issue - spending money on advertising songs and clip compilations of talents, investing in con presence and meet-and-greets, arranging community events. I'd figure out a program to give money to clippers, whether it's a contest or reworking Aviel's clipper program.

I'd like to see Brave succeed, if only for the sake of the talents that are investing their future into them.

Never spend money on clippers.

Everyone who tried, failed.

It's like paying jannies. Exactly the same work as before, but now they're suddenly entitled and you get bad PR.

Happened to Niji, and indeed, happened to Idol, too.

I don't know the Niji story you refer to but the issue with Idol was that Aviel was running a scam, which was why he'd always immediately find the money he promised someone the moment they made a twitter post detailing how Aviel owed them money, but never during the months before when they repeatedly DMd him asking for it.

Worked for Filian and the femboy trying to start shit was called out properly, I don't know what you're on about.
Be better at managing people, I guess.

Phase's clipping contest went well didn't it?

I know Phase has horrible shipping times, but have people actually gotten the merch they ordered in the end even if they're raising children?

Most of the physical Phase merch has been six months to a year. There's a few outliers still in the works that more than a year after ordering, like the stackable plushies, but Sakana is still trying to sort them out. You can accuse Phase of being slow with the merch (more than fair) but they do eventually deliver.

IIRC the Niji one refers to a time when Niji tried to officially endorse clippers through a program under Niji clip channel or something. I remember some Holo clippers also joined and shill out Niji clips until they simply stop. CMIIW I think Neko Mikuri did join that clipper program and later left as it is not worth it.

I got gen 3, lucky boxes and valentine merch on their estimated times, if not slightly earlier. I am seeing numerous "My merch came" posts on twitter too so a lot of people do get them.

Once Brave completely takes care of issues left, Idol's will likely get better. V4mirai had no big issues afaik, and any problem gets a statement from their accounts decently fast
