My favourite part of the application process, when I have to give a psychoanalysis of myself and then vouch for my own assessment with unverified hearsay from third parties.

The most incorrect part of this segment is a third gender option being "Prefer not to say". In my experience, anyone that doesn't identify as male or female will absolutely take all opportunities to tell you so.

They don't restrict you from applying if you are a current talent elsewhere, but it is stipulated that if so you must be ready to immediately break off your contract with that company if you're accepted, which, lmao. Imagine being someone with another corpo spot and you apply here, get in and have to terminate yourself just to get fucked over by the kill or be killed battle royale of vtubing.

I really had a laugh when I saw they're asking for Discord ID and that they will use that to contact you, or email. Everyone knows real professional companies use slack anyway!

Sorry chief I don't speak english.

I wonder what their reaction would be if I enter "The Virtual Asylum". :smugpipi:

Hmm, no I think I lied about the part where I put my personality traits, if only because I don't think it'd be beneficial to list my strongest personality trait as "willing to backstab as hard as possible for fun, profit not necessary".

Also their privacy policy linked in the form.

They're gonna need more than just Aviel-shekels if they want to sustain their own platform, I can say that much. It's obvious that hosting video is expensive, but I think people underestimate just how expensive.

I'll probably have a proper look at this when I'm not on literally zero hours of sleep, but the one saving grace this has compared to most YouTube/Twitch alternatives is that they're focusing specifically on hiring talent to use it, so people have a reason to visit their new site/app etc.; plus if those talents are actually entertaining they act as a safety net that can be shifted over to YouTube if when the new platform falls through.

The website being written in ESL and the almost-definitely unlicensed appearances of MHA characters inspires literally zero confidence though. Here's an archive for the website, since I have a feeling it'll get changed if/when they bring in more staff who realise what an awful look it is.

2) They intend to launch 40 talents.

I love the part that only tech requirement is a phone. Looks exactly like chinese streaming farm.
I bet their contract is even more of ass wipe than tardsanji, whacktor and v&u

Yeah they ask for a speed test but there's literally nothing about PC specs, they just want you to have a high speed connection and a phone, presumably because whatever their app does requires a lot of bandwidth and/or they just don't want people with slow/choppy internet. I can't really begin to imagine what their overall endgame is with it, but there's a namedrop for whatever the fuck this is in their big shit write-up that looks like a streaming site specifically tailored for phones, so I presume their end goal is to mimic this platform but with only vtubers and if you happen to have your own content direction that includes not being a phonegro you can go ahead and do that, but company mandates that you spend minimum 40 hours a month streaming on whatever comparative to this 17.live shit heap is.

The harry dude (CEO) mentions fucking EVERYWHERE that he worked for that company, he probably got booted and is now trying to start his own shittier version with crack and virtual waifus.

1) One could argue some agencies never intended to provide any support at all for streaming and just planned on boosting or leaning on whoever would blow up in popularity
2) "Top notch creativity" (that's a new one for me) comes from individual efforts and not from a management policy. Unless I'm full of crap and I completely missed armies of marketeers suddenly awakening in the middle of the night with their eyes glowing from a Creative Quantum Surge
3) I have no idea why this is being presented as an exclusive feature of the big fat corpos who can do no wrong, literally any indie can come up with a cute design
4) This is half-true; the less polished part of course makes a reference to the increment in new streamers without access to a recording studio, but to believe this is to also claim Suisei should have never become big because she didn't start out with a Kizuna Ai-level of model and rig.

Most new corpos aren't trying to prop up a new streaming service, and need a wide variety of different streamers.

So unless I missed something about this, seems that these associations from Lopi and Filian were something like lectures given in discord to a select audience.



Archivist edit: Quick archive of embedded tweets

Commentary in replies from some literally who's talking about the insight, taking notes, etc. Chances of them being plants? Maybe people in the application process for the first wave that were given priority selection, or maybe actual picks? Seems kind of weird for them to have these 'lectures' given by other vtubers to a bunch of completely unassociated nobodies just because, I haven't bothered digging any of the repliers for any insight on if they might be hooks for the line, but it seems unlikely to me they'd just have these random, private lectures for blind pick applicants to a form that have nothing to do with the structure.

e: Skimming some of the posts and checking accounts, found one guy so far replying with some interesting history.


Cole Lundeen, er, uh, I mean, Chaotic GG talking about applying in replies. Also e-begging with cash app name, as well as talking to someone about a nearby con.

They're definitely getting the cream of the crop in applicants. Actual nobodies. Very nice, this is surely going to lead to great success if they're getting people like this.

The CEO being japanese himself.

Wait, the CEO is called Harry, is it the same harry that worked for hololive?
You might be thinking of Yasuhiro "Harry" Igarashi, the NijiEN branch head. This NEXAS CEO Harry is 荘博光, Hiromitsu "Harry" So.

NEXAS is a project under FORCREATORS Pte. Ltd., which is incorporated in Singapore (a). Of note, they were incorporated on 17 October 2023 (a).

On 14 December 2023 they announced that they had raised "angel round funding" from nine investors. (JP press release / archive) (EN self-hosted news / archive)
In both the JP and EN articles, they claim that early investors of Anycolor and Cover have now also invested in them.

Not the first time Punkalopi was brought into a shady event. Let's see whether she'll back out again, too.

I thought someone was making an agency solely using Kick when I first read this. Do many people still use that platform at this point in time?
