Very understandable to be scared of betrayal. The statistics are scary. I hope she actually can overcome that fear at some point if she does find someone. I don't want her fears to get in the way unnecessarily.

Glad she has a good family and friends to fill in, though. She really does seem to value family a lot; it's one thing I really pulled from her debut, very caring in that regard.

This was my initial thought, but the way Nagzz speaks implies that he was just using them as an example of a company that has given him express permission to react to their content, back when they made the first rounds in Late 2020/Early 2021. In other words, there's no real evidence that AnyColor have gone BACK and asked them to make content again, or even contacted them recently as Nagzz said he got their permission 'a while ago'.


Honestly if you listen closely to how he talks about this, he comes off as slightly burned out by the 'Discovering [Holo]'. I think he's done all the ones he wanted to do, and the ones his guests (Koe and NBAF) were most excited for. I wonder if he just feels like he's committed to doing them all one after the other, and suddenly doing other companies would come off as disrespectful to the ones left.


I don't want to get too hung up on this because I find the jab kind of ridiculous, but 'organic' and 'inorganic' growth are terms that are being used incorrectly in this thread.

People coming to Nijisanji as a result of paid sponsorships is a form of organic growth, whether people like it or not. People have independent thought to say to themselves 'I didn't know about Enna, but she's fucking funny. I'll subscribe and see what's going on'. Money being exchanged between hands doesnt really affect that, because you could watch another 1,000 Raid Shadow Legends ads and still never touch it.

Inorganic growth is something like Nijisanji purchasing Phase Connect. The rabbit is now under the rainbow banner. If you donate to her, 30% of it is going to Anycolor. There is nothing you can do about this. If you want to continue supporting a Blizzard game, you've had to also support Activision with your cash because they were bought out. That is inorganic.

Neither of these types are inherently negative, but what is being described here is aggressive marketing, which is a discussion that has been done to death regarding Niji in the EN space. None of this is new news.

Just to kind of tack one more thing onto this, There's some good reasons out there for why Anycolor would want to reassure these kinds of creators that it's cool if they react to their content. To give a specific example I'm aware of, for a very long time anyone putting out a video with some of Akina from Niji's music would get copyright claimed without fail. and it's only been in the last few months that that shit's been cleared up in the back end to where people can post videos reacting to his songs without getting their video hit.

That kinda stuff going on is going to make a lot of creators hesitant to cover Niji shit, so there's reasons why Anycolor would want to reassure people that it's fine. And well, these types of creators have done more than just get fans eyes on Nijisanji, Ban Hada from Niji KR has said that she got interested in Nijisanji in the first place thanks to these channels. So these content creators aren't only bringing Niji fans, but talents as well.

Maybe something happened within the group?
Small groups arent known for being well managed, look at Heavenrend and Phase Connect.

Good find. That is really odd though. As you say why the fuck would you just start something only to abandon it 2 months in. Guessing it might have to be one of the following:
1. management may have promised and didn't get to fulfill or the
2. company is doing poorly and she is going to jump ship before it sinks
3. issues with another of the talent

True. I posted Sumi's other identity intending to keep an eye on it just in case -- I don't expect her to return to it, but if she does, then I would certainly bet on there being some kind of internal strife.

Maybe she's just fucking nuts. Apparently, earlier today she did a "Twitter space" and approved everyone as speakers. No idea what they talked about, wasn't around for it.
Also I forgot to mention the part during yesterday's stream where she basically incited viewers to go prank a random Twitter user. She's definitely in "gave my 2 weeks notice" mode.

I loved her reaction here. Sounded like she was kinda fishing for chat to say "no, you're an idol too!" but instead everyone just went "yes", "correct", "exactly".

Ah, I see "Yagoo's home of broken girls" is still going strong.

Have the faces of Lui/Chloe been discovered yet? I have only stumbled upon Iroha/La+/Koyori's irl photos so far, the remaining two seem to be a mystery.

If Chloe ever gets a facedox, I hope it includes pics of her room.
I'm almost as curious what her room looks like as I am about what Marine's ass looks like. (Willing to bet the tales of both are a bit exaggerated though).

Wait so Pippa's 2view tuba gets an actual Capcom partnership but Phase Connect doesn't? How does that work?

Twitch has as a communal sponsorship "billboard" wherein anyone can comein and take a sponsorship they want. How that works is that the company goes to Twitch and says "We have x sponsorship slots to offer" and Twitch posts said slots on that billboard for anyone to take

The difference of course is that instead of being paid upfront like regular sponsorships, they are paid a (set amount * number of viewers)

This Monster Hunter one specifically has been put together by Capcom to get a bunch of streamers playing it. The gist is you gift two subs in a promoted streamers chat and then you get some free DLC, so most likely any money from this one is solely the sub money after the Twitch cut.

This reminds me of the time I bought Rockman & Bass off a japanese vendor, had described it as "used, complete, box in bad condition". Not only was the packaging perfect, and the manual uncreased, he also included a plastic sleeve. I finally figured that one of the tabs inside of the left flap was slightly bent back.
