>Brave merges corpos
>One of the corpos involved is Palette Project which hadn't yet updated to the new standard format
>"Eh okay let's get it out of the way now I guess"
>Reviewing debut dates of all of the talents because those are included now
>Read "On 29 December, it was announced that Kamina Kohane and Eko Amagasaki will be joining Palette Project."
>"Joining"? That sounds weird...
>Announcement post on website sounds even more sus: "This is Amegasaki-chan, released by Avatar2.0. She has been dreaming of becoming an idol since her debut. I was surprised when she came to the audition." (Machine TL, which is important because it confused me at the time and lead to 2+ hours of pointless searching when the answer was right below my nose)
>Look these two up
>Kamina is clean, she has no visible activity so she was probably debuted by Palette themselves...
>Look into Eko
>Holy fucking shit she's an invader... that was not labeled as such in the chart
>AUTISM INTENSIFIES
>Research
>More research into weird japanese idol agencies and music labels
>Tied to some company called "Twin Planet Entertainment" but she doesn't appear on their site
>Wayback Machine fails me
>Cannot find her origin
>Go back on her twitter timeline until twitter fucking breaks and refuses to work
>Fuck you Elon
>Go to her channel and begin reading the descriptions on her oldest streams to find out when exactly she debuted
>No debut, only a one year anniversary with no date of debut
>Look for her first stream under Palette
>Randomly find a name tied to her in the description that I didn't pay attention to before: "Avatar 2.0"
>Seen it before during research but thought it was just referring to... a new avatar of hers at the time of joining palette or whatever
>Look it up
>Holy fuck it's a vtubing project, and it's actually one of the oldest fucking pseudo-agencies out there dating back to 2018...
>The chart gains new info

STATE OF THE CHARTS UPDATE:
Idk why but this time around I have been feeling insanely overwhelmed by this for whatever reason, I kinda want it to be more perfect than ever but that requires a bunch of extra work. I can't just shit it out in an unfinished state like with V.1, I keep finding new things I wanna add now before I seal the bow on it and ship it but it has gotten to a scope-creep-y degree that bothers me for whatever reason. I keep having to redo stuff I already put down to add new disclaimers or details and Neoporte/Globie/VSPO have sat unfinished for weeks.

The main body of Brave 3.0 is shaping up though, even with all of the various format and design changes and with the brossom crop of agencies occupying a massive chunk of space in the bottom-center of the thing. In part all of this messing around is so that the chart "foundations" as it were are perfect enough that I won't be compelled to make some massive format change in the near future (at least a year), in preparation for starting to put the charts together, if I don't get it right before that then I'll start having to disassemble the big mess of charts to fix/tune up each one individually and that's something I don't wanna do.

I also hope to not have to update Brave in like 6 months, though I myself admit that is a massive pile of cope. I do feel a big impulse to start getting into other corpos, 774 was pretty fun to do because I was getting into a corpo I knew nothing about and it felt exciting to put all of this disparate knowledge together into something easy-ish to digest, specially for westoids that often aren't privy to japanese corpo shenanigans.

You're supposed to do 180 hrs/week in billables, not 180 hrs/week spent on personal projects.

Jealous?

Jealous?

I'm a filthy shingle-hanger, cringe but free.

Just gonna archive this one here because I've been tracking it all afternoon, date in which VSPO got its name and branding, Vtuber wiki is incorrect in saying it was called "0.2 Second story" that was just a multimedia project, the actual agency was just referred to as "LVG management".
