Idol Corp - Sniffing out the most golden and smoky controversies in the vtubing industry.

[Hff201]

For what it's worth, my biggest problem with Pochi/Fluffen's conduct is that everything we hear from her is drenched in an obnoxious emotionally-charged, performative-feeling pitybait tone. Even if she is genuinely upset, that poisons the integrity of everything she says, since 99% of the time when I see an Internet personality sadposting after a scandal or controversy, they are trying to emotionally manipulate their audience into letting them off the hook.

I don't think any one thing she's done has made her reputation unsalvageable. The biggest criticism against her is obviously the series of donothons and unfulfilled goals, and even that'd be forgivable if she confidently put her hands up and apologised for the delays, then cracked on with getting them done as and when she's able to. Some people would still be a tad annoyed about it being late, but as soon as it was all done nobody (who should matter to her, at least) would have any ammunition against her.

The problem is, she doesn't do that. Nothing about the pityposts she makes whenever she reads a mean comment inspires any kind of confidence that she actually understands where the contention is coming from, it just feels like she wants a simp hugbox to validate her feelings without taking any accountability herself.

To note: I have no proof that this person is who they say they are, however they aren't using a VPN so I can at least confirm they're not a Jambalya gayop (probably.)

Unless Jambalaya got in touch with Pochi and they decided to pull off the greatest April Fools prank ever.

Pochi/Fluffenfox has dropped a relatively short Google doc about her time at Idol.

Fluffenfox 🦊🐾 on X: "not aprils fools. that's probably the last i'll say, idk how long this will stay up- i'm still on/off hiatus and working on stuff but after this i really want to do my thing and not have it plaguing my mind anymore so it's best t

ghostarchive.org

The tldr is that she felt unsupported at the company. It all seems kind of tame to drop after all this time but maybe she just needed her name to circulate a bit or something. PDF archive attached.

Seems like the stardard of the vast majority of small corpos. Bunch of promises and nice words only to be left isolated because "New Shiny wave" leaving to sad girls having broken dreams.

No evidence of shit that went down, nothing new elaborated upon.

To paraphrase what Samurai said in the Pochi thread, that whole doc is just a whole lot of words to say nothing.

No real evidence but Im pretty sure you can connect the dots an assume that would be the case especially given how much Idol promised and how little they delivered. Also knowing how other small corpos operate and you start to paint a fairly comprehensive picture of what happened. There is no reason to think she's lying but at the same time she needs to move the fuck on.

The problem is, she doesn't do that. Nothing about the pityposts she makes whenever she reads a mean comment inspires any kind of confidence that she actually understands where the contention is coming from, it just feels like she wants a simp hugbox to validate her feelings without taking any accountability herself.

I agree with what you say and honestly It does feel that way. Like that one girl who made that one tweet saying that she wants to eat pizza but tomato sauce upsets her stomach and when people offered solutions to her problem she just had a meltdown and started attacking people because she just wanted people to agree and not offer solutions.

The only Jambalya I know is the food. Not a ton of traction/questions here, but if you want proof that wont dox me or her, happy to provide whatever.

If you have privacy concerns about proving who you are you can reach out to the staff and they can give us a "yes he's legit" without sharing the specifics of what you sent them.

user here combined with an in joke.

I suggest private messaging Proctor or another mod your still having to share personal information but they will not leak it seems to work pretty well.

As an outsider the issue I have with a lot of these allegations is that talents within Idol and after still continue to do some of the very things she complained about Aviel pushing

Like did she not try to pull off a "safe" lewd patreon? Like I get it, I can believe he did these things. But at the same time some of these allegations seem to apply more to Vtubers who pull scams, GFE shit etc without his pull. Perhaps he gave them a nudge, but these broads are still rolling.

Some more than others

If there's anyone this actually applies to it'd probably be Yuko/Rye, she's the one who walked back the GFE/lewd ASMR shit while in Idol and as far as I know hasn't gone back to it since leaving. Fluffen and Rye still seem to be close (Rye drew fanart for her just the other day - archive) so there's a chance they've just been talking about Rye's experience rather than everyone across the board.

...Although with how the pipeline works it's entirely possible the remaining ethots just got a feel for it after (((Aviel))) introduced it to them.
