I went to do a little digging since people have pointed out that the NijiEN figurines do not list a manufacturer like most other figures would list a company like Kotobukiya or Goodsmile.

MyFigureCollection lists 196 Nijisanji figures (some of these are not licensed/doujin works), of these Anycolor is listed as the manufacturer of only 5, the ones of NijiEN. However, they do also all list the creatives behind the designs (except the Elira one for some reason) and they seem like pretty capable people. All figures list what appears to be some artists collective that has put out some nice looking figures. Some of them also list secondary sculptors and they all look pretty prolific, and I can say that with certainty for Alban's sculptor because I own several of those figures.

The main question is obviously what "Anycolor" as a figure manufacturer means. I think what's most likely is that they are just cutting out the middle man and using the same factories they usually would, keeping the cut that would normally go to the production company. I wonder if this is a tryout and might become the norm in the future for Nijisanji scale figures.
It makes a lot of sense to, at some point, start building your own "merch supply line" even for the premium merch to pump up margins. They also mentioned in the M&A section of the investors Q&A that potential targets for acquisitions could be companies that "can acquire IP pipelines and have the functions to grow and monetize IP", which something like this would fit into.
There’s currently a slow emergence of previously unknown figure manufacturers from China trying to create low cost 1/4 and 1/6 scale figures. It could be that Anycolor has contracted one of those parties and it’s really up in the air to see if the finished products match up to the prototypes. Sometimes it doesn’t.

Even if they don't come from China, original sculpts and coloring differring heavily from the shipped product is something that seems to happen a lot. Them not saying who produces the figures does not provide much confidence, tbh. We really won't know what it will be like until the final product releases because we don't have any other work to look at.

Speaking of U-San, NijiEN are coming to U-San's stomping ground Thailand for some weeb convention. Around 40USD for a M&G ticket. Edit: To be fair, the ticket includes admission for the day of the M&G.
It sounds completely retarded, so it's probably correct, but if in 6-12 months Nijisanji announces Thailand branch let it be known I was the first to say they are doing it. It will last for maybe a year or two and end in the same way as every other foreign branch they opened. Maybe even worse, because Thai has a lot of big vtuber agencies afaik so they will fight for even worse scraps than in EN market

I think they talked about being interested in expanding to Thailand a couple months ago, so not really all that dumb.

He's pretty irrelevant and keeps losing viewers. While the female ex-Niji have flourished and have been doing even better as indies than they were as corpos, the males seem to be floundering in comparison. Turns out having to compete with other male streamers on Twitch who are far more interesting and funny than you will ever be is difficult when you ditch your whole fujo-bait shtick.
Especially males who can actually play video games.

Oh man. I can already see how Nijisanji TH will go. Like.. it's exactly like the other foreign branches. Except all of the vtubers have a cock.

All.

:pomuStare:

Just imagine. @God's Strongest Mozumite would suddenly turn into the #1 Niji stan.
Imagine having your superchats going to feed a village of people who didn't even invent the wheel.

:annoyedpippa:

but imagine ESG ratings! they will have very diverse assortment of fags
That's not how diversity works. It's only diverse if it's >75% black.


Oh hey, it's the theme song of @God's Strongest Mozumite..

Holy hell, that's some premium cope. Going through their Twitter is entertaining. Definitely a big Niji fan, and by that, I mean the company because as soon as a liver leaves, ol' StarfieldEnjoyer (lol, lmao) turns on them hard. Some more fun Tweets I found:


Want to see how fast he/she turned on Doki?

No apostrophes so make of this what you will but apparently the concerts this time are actually live, which I think would be a first for EN.

Sorry but I chuckled at "such a failure that she failed twice at killing herself in a country with assisted suicide". That is a great burn.

The asian woman with BPD who worked at a Jap company somehow failing to kill herself twice is probably a really interesting statistical anomaly if you kinda think abouy it
