Get what they deserve.
Probably Ennaschizo taking some things out of context, but I can't subject myself to Enna for more than a second to really check.
I do find some of it funny.
I listened to the stream again and the quote itself is accurate. Ennaschizo only cut one comment she read in between, but it doesn't change anything about the context.
But what brought all this on? She just had her first ever 3D live performance (not pre-recorded) in front of a real audience in Niji. As I posted in the regular thread,
she was the opening act for one of Nornis concerts and sang 2 songs in front of 1500 real people. We all know how excited the holos get when holofes or a sololive happens, so I can understand why this all send her over the moon. Nornis also could have picked anyone from Niji, but they picked her. To give a bit more of a perspective on this: The other 2 opening acts debuted in 2018 and 2019, while the 2 members of Nornis also debuted in 2018 and 2019. Meanwhile Enna debuted in 2021 and is from EN, while everyone else is from JP. All of these 4 are real senpai to her. And despite all of this they picked her and from the stories she told, the 2 of Nornis member really seemed to enjoy her being here. One of them, Machita Chima, even send her a superchat in that very same stream (
02:49:16) who Enna also mentions is her "oshi in singing" (
02:50:30). After that, at
02:52:44 she received a surprise from her fans for the 3rd year anniversary of ethyria. Ennaschizos quote starts at
02:54:08.
TL;DR: Enna got acknowleged by JP senpais who are in the company for 2-3 more years then her and they invited her to do an actual live performance on a paid concert. On top of that, one of them is is her oshi in singing.
Now, she is definitely coping here though. While she got this oppertounity in Niji, Niji is also slowly destroying her. Most of her health issues are likely caused by stress and it has gotten to the point that she fainted on the evening before she had to start travelling for a friends wedding and the Nornis concert. She went to the doctors before that and they gave her a heavy medicine to bridge the next months, but long term she might require a small surgery (she didn't specify which one though). The topic with the stress is also not new, I don't remember when she mentioned it the first time but I am pretty sure that it has been over a year ago, meaning it started long before the Selen termination. She talked about the fainting in the same stream, starting around
00:52:57.
I can only speculate on the causes for the stress, but given how Niji also crushed the self esteem of someone as talented, uncontroversial and beloved as Pomu, I would not be surprised if they do this to everyone, including the supposed clique.
Wonder what this "full story" is. There's no reason to defend Niji like this when nearly everything she said could have been solely focused on herself and her community without bringing up the company at all.
This is actually not the first time that I have heared someone mentioning the "full story". The first time was in this
unarchived members only stream from aia in march. Aia was extremely vulnearable during this stream and came close to crying multiple times. I don't want to go into to much detail about this stream since she was using this a sort of safe space to vent (which is pretty dumb since anyone could be listening, but I don't want to cause problems for her so I will keep it short). If you happen to have access to the archive, around 01:39:40 she says the following:
"There is a lot I wish I could say. There is so much. There is pages upon pages upon pages I want to say... but I cant. (pause) Things that would change the context of everything, but I cant."
I really hope that one day we find out what actually went down in Niji during these months, because the more stuff I hear about it, the less sense it makes. There are still some key puzzle piece(s) missing.
