Nijisanji L Collection

What is Neuro doing in a Niji financial document wearing a bad attempted meme shirt of Riku?

Edit - Also great laugh that they don't seem to show any photos of their EN talents or even mention the branch at all outside of 1 shot of Noctyx and a graph showing EN is underperforming like a mother fucker, yet they mention ID. Also just noticed this page is labelled Comprehensive support system for Vtuber which stops entirely with the Debut of the talent, and says in small print down at the bottom At this time, only Nijisanji Japan is implementing this program. So this implies there is no support system in place right now. Sounds about right.

Edit 2 - Apparently reading comments on reddit saying that this doesn't even cover the shit storm that has happened yet since this covers up to Jan 31st. Next report will be the real kicker, since EN is already under performing here as it is.

What is Neuro doing in a Niji financial document wearing a bad attempted meme shirt of Riku?

This has been in multiple of their reports already for a while now. That is a free-use Live2D model, not specifically Neuro. Neuro just used that model before she got her custom one that she uses today.

 

[Seoleim]

Ahh ok fair enough didn't know that.

 

[RestlessRain]

All of you are sleeping on this meme. First, Riku is a shit CEO, so it makes sense to post him in a shit meme. Second, posting him on top of free art with no work put in represents the level of support Niji gives it's talents. Lastly, Riku pretending to be memeworthy material like Yagoo or Fishman is just the icing on the cake.

I wouldn't mind some more "so bad it's good" Riku memes.

There are a bunch of old clips and an ok amount of current ones

But what many have lamented is the fact that compared to HoloJP there is a distinct lack of new clippers that still produce constant content besides special circumstances like Salome, JP/EN collabs, or HoloJP/NijiJP collabs

There are some reasons for this, such as Niji's seemingly botched translation initiative, or just the sheer amount of livers.
Hololive in comparison not only is much smaller, but they seemingly encurage the JPs to work with ENs, and the JPs ocassionaly provide fanservice to their "kaiganiki" or as Marine puts it "Overseas Sexy Guys"

This probably flies under the radar of newer VTuber fans but they used to hire translators to work on their puchisanji videos before it stopped abruptly and the original translator just decided to upload the translated version themselves on their own channel,
Niji kinda have this effort of reaching out to overseas audiences back when kr/id branches are still fresh, examples are stuff like translated cc for their official variety shows like lever-gacha daipan below


But as you can see they didn't have all the available episodes translated for whatever reason, which ended up with fans making their own translated clips in the end.
Niji still has a big reach in JP fandom as of now but they kept kneecapping themselves when it comes to overseas expansion/promotion, which is why it gives the impression that they're not doing as well to overseas viewers. I don't think they would care in the long run unless the JP fanbase started showing less enthusiasm because just look at how they manage their non-JP branches if that could even be called a "management" effort.

Niji's main problem is that they're pushing a square peg into a round hole. What works really well with JP doesn't remotely work in the global sphere. They had 5 fucking chances to learn from it (ID, KR, IN, CN and EN) and they failed at those miserably because Riku can't put it in his head that JP corpo autism only works in JP. Holo has the distinct advantage of having a YAGOO on their corner that has at least a basic knowledge of how things are run in different countries. Surr, they got fucking ass-blasted in CN but that was a blessing in disguise for them. The way they handled ID and EN plus their upcoming expansion in the US with their own office means Cover has found a way to expand without fucking up. Riku should learn from this instead of just mindlessly jacking off to the hundreds of playbuttons in his yacht.

At this point only an atom bomb could make Niji change their management ways towards non-JP talents

 

[bothyourhouses]

im pretty sure who they invest in doesnt have anything to do with the perms department or whatever.

It could do. Japanese companies love alliances and cross-holding each other's shares, you end up with these pseudo conglomerates where each piece claims to be a public company but actually most of their shares are owned by each other.
But yeah only 5% of the stock, and is Niji even big enough for Sony to care about?

Is it normal for a company to have only 1.227% of its own shares? That seems nuts to me.

It's not abnormal to have 0, owning yourself only causes confusion. Your shareholders should own your shares, if you need more you issue them. I assume they're holding a few shares to be given out as employee bonuses or something, that's pretty much the only reason for a company to own its own stock.

Starting to feel genuinely bad for Nijisanji fans with this report. It's like, they've become absolutely mindbroken tryna defend their oshi's but Anycolor themselves keep stabbing them in the back.

Yes, I've mentioned this before. Their Q4 should drop on 6/14, as it has in the past 2 years. The last report they put out caused their stock to enter freefall when it was posted on December 15th.

Holy fuck, I'm fucking dying.

Also, briefly looking over that report is just fucking bleak. EN branch is fucking donezo.

Sure, 80% of your revenue (JP) is growing but the portion that makes up 20% (EN) is tanking colossally and wiping out most of your gains from the JP branch growing. Meanwhile your costs are increasing across the board. Holy fuck, what a disaster. That YoY for the quarter is fucking embarrassing. Looking at their Q4 from last year, they're likely not going to make their projections for the year, even ignoring the nuclear disaster that was the Selen termination for them. This was suppose to tide over investor confidence for the time being until the nuke in June but god damn, this is going to be bloody. No wonder they're stacking everything they can for the time being to look strong in the face of Holofes.

Congrats Riku, good luck explaining this fucking slide to your investors. Are the Japanese going to have to invent a word for defenestration like we did?

Is this report covering (lol) a period where cover's costs include construction expenses for the studio? If so, that means cover is almost as profitable as niji during a period where cover is doing major capital investments.

NijiJP is slowly growing at a steady rate, as usual. Meanwhile NijiEN:

Companies set projections for the year, which are their goals to meet. Nijisanji is not going to meet their goals. Meanwhile Cover had to change their projections and increase them because they were doing far better than they thought they would.

This is suppose to be the "strong quarter" with NijiFes and Christmas to pump up their stats. This is a huge disaster for Nijisanji and it doesn't even show the effects of their recent shitshow over the past few months.

They also didn't include the past few graduations in NijiJP (Yuki Chihiro and Azuchi Momo) because they graduated on January 31st despite that the report is suppose to include data up to January 31st, 2024. They are going to have to include that in their nuclear report that's coming in June.

If the number dorks constantly screeching at each other in the /vt/ threads are to be believed, then Cover spent roughly the same on their enormous cutting edge studio as Anycolor spent on a stock buyback & adding loans to their portfolio.

Which, if true, kinda gives the game away, don't it? Cover is here to invest in reliable long-term growth of the company and talents while Anycolor is here to use their talents to disguise some shady moneymaking schemes.

This is thoroughly consistent with how both operate so its honestly more or less on brand for both
