General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

Jesus Christ, people really turned on Rushia quickly after putting 2 and 2 together and realizing she fucked up by communicating with KoreKore

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

So when is Rushia going to star in a death metal band?

Really? I haven't seen it yet after reading the replies about Korekore

 

[Sunflower Samurai]

And if we were to believe the Korekore clip with subtitles floating around, he says Rushia contacted him about the mafumafu stuff and showed some messages. That definitely counts as breaching NDA and justifies firing.

This one for reference

Archived it here just in case lol

I wonder also if the holomems have already said their goodbyes yet, or did they possibly just put her under the bus for the "breach of contract" that she did.

When Zelensky has to leave Ukraine maybe he'll get a job at Cover Corp.

Imagine if Mafumafu just didn't want to play Apex that night. This has butterfly effect'd into a shitstorm.

Well today has escalated a lot with recent events.

not to mention I had raid drama earlier as well, the fuck is wrong today...

that sounds like the most plausible, rushia tried to defuse the situation on her own and then trips over a technicality, it makes sense in her eyes but company disagrees.

By the way, I looked at the announcement again and the wording make it seem that Rushia have been leaking the info more than just once.

the problem again is how you define it. remember this is a corp statement, and corp policies are sane on a good day, now top it of with nip business autismo.

you could consider "man, my boss sucks" as false information if you wanted to, and "leaking business information" can be anything from future business strategies to a simple DM saying "can't go on vacation in march because there's the fan expo" before it's officially announced.

2/24 is obviously just stewed with cursed energy at this point.

Can't wait to see Null's reaction at the amount of traffic the thread will be pulling in the next 24 hours.
"Why the fuck are there so many guests checking the weeb thread? What the fuck did they do now"

Closing this thread. The main purpose for this thread was to keep Multimedia from being flooded with vtuber threads during the election. Former mod @It's HK-47 was actively merging threads into it as he felt it'd be the best way to keep things under control. We've stopped merging and still get a healthy number of vtuber threads outside of this one. A lot of the major vtuber events and gaffes get posted outside of here. There's not a need for this thread anymore.

This thread is one of the largest in the site's history (over 4100 pages) and is fucking slow. Go make individual threads for articles now.

Didn't that notification show up because of a Discord glitch? If so, I hope no one at their tech department is a fandead, they must be kicking themselves right now.

"I touched on this a little bit in Bakatare.
There's not much I can tell you, so even though there are now only four of us in the 3rd gen,
I'd be happy if everyone could support us as we continue to work hard together."

I know it's difficult for some of you right now.
But I still want you to smile again at the Hololive."

In a more serious topic does anyone still believe the Fubuki canary bullshit ?

 

[Takodachi]

Towa's chat is insufferable right now
So many people typing crying emojis and fags being equally as disrupting by typing "remember to keep the stream chill"

I'm not gonna be a hypocrite and carry water for Cover as they threw Coco/Hachama under the bus IMO, but I am curious as to what she did to warrant firing a top earner. Especially when they issued that talents lives were personal, as in they didn't give a fuck if they were getting the D or not.

They didn't throw Coco or Hachama under the bus. They suspended them as a form of damage control. Was it the best thing to do or did they handle it properly? Probably not.

I think it was probably something bigger than just "whoops she was getting railed by the twink, gonered" but the community will probably always remember her as the menhera who got fired for getting dicked on clip.

Doubt anyone gives a shit about the twink save a few butthurt Rushia fans.

I really fucking hope this will be the straw that breaks the camel's back for Cover. Fucking pieces of shit. Do they even have a PR committee for this? God Cover is so fucking stupid.

How so? If what they claim is true they are well within their right to boot her. Of course the fans are retarded and will never blame the talent and throw a hissy fit at the company.

Yeah, they're gonna need to explain this shit. I get that they want to be vague to not stir the pot, but the amount of speculation this is going to draw is going to be immense. At this point, it's going to be Rushia's word against theirs until they spill the details.

I think Cover needs to come forth fully with what all she leaked or Western fans will never forgive them. They won't tho, either to protect themselves or her.

They wont explain shit. This is a japanese company.

Wonder if this is a spur of the moment decision or they have been preparing for this since day one of the drama. This is something that you have to explain to the sponsors, investors, and vendors

Given by the fact that Rushia seems to have created a youtube channel yesterday, she probably knew for atleast a day.

The worst part about this will be that the Nijifags' smugness will increase by 1000% and this thread will grow another 300 pages in the next few hours while rampant rrats and shitposting run amock, as always, the fans will be mad, a bunch of people will condemn hololive, and everything will be back to usual business by the time her channel gets snapped.

The only really bad thing that could possibly happen is if another talent decides to call it quits in protest.

Niji has its own shitshows.

That's the thing too. WTF did Rushia leak to get Terminated of all things? Cover has been financially damaged in the past by one of their talents and they still didn't terminate them.

Cover was financially damaged by their talents but Coco and Haachama didn't breach the contract.

People are saying that judging by their reaction to the whole thing, either they agree with Cover 100% or are just too busy with their upcoming concert to not give a fuck about other things.

Or they know that they have little to no say in the matter. In Japan, the nail that sticks out will get hammered back in.

Edit: This was posted yesterday. At least this guy suspected it.

Imagine if Mafumafu just didn't want to play Apex that night. This has butterfly effect'd into a shitstorm.

It would be even worse, hitting like a train just like with Coco, but harder. Even with people saying she talked too much to the wrong people, they wouldn't have canned her for something like this. They're an anime girl company, not the fucking Yakuza lol!

She probably did something really, really bad behind the scenes and this incident caused it to come to light. Yagoo firing her for venting to someone outside the company is akin to President Brandon launching nukes because they served him a rancid breakfast by mistake. Even impulsive reactions don't happen over minor shit like this on a company!

Sounds like a corporate canned response, but do remember that Fubuki said she will stay in Hololive as long as it's a good place to be. She is the canary (well, fox) in the coal mine, so if this didn't turn into Idolcalypse, chances are it's just an isolated incident. So far lol!

Is 3rd gen just cursed?

This is not from me, this is a writeup from a sperg friend on Discord that has been autistically logging and putting together what has happened during this entire debacle:

Timeline:

• Message from mafumafu to Rushia saying "I'll be home soon mi-chan" gets shown on gta stream
• Manager tells her to shut the fuck up and wait for all of this to blow over
• Cover releases statement about them handling people spreading false rumors (confirmed)
• She suicide baits on her Rushia account (confirmed)
• Management deletes it (confirmed)
• Her fuckbuddy asks her what the fuck she's doing (speculation)
• He starts tweeting that he just played video games with her (confirmed)
• (as a sidenote autists had already noticed that they had the exact same furtniture and everything back in 2018, and also he tweeted to her in 2011 and that tweet is still up to this day)
• She talks to jap keemstar (korekore) and reveals her identity (confirmed)
• Jap keemstar throws her under the bus together with her fuckbuddy the next day
• Her fuckbuddy then proceeds to throw her under the bus completely on twitter (confirmed)
• He probably throws her out of his house at this point (speculation)
• She does a twitcast where she says "check your messages....goodbye" followed by the sound of the phone microphone hitting a strong gust of wind (confirmed)
• Starts a new youtube channel (confirmed)
• Uploads a black video with no sound (confirmed)
• Adds "hitoribocchi" to her twitter handle (confirmed)
• Tweets that she needs a new place to stay and that being alone is hard (confirmed)
• Deletes tweets within 5 hours (confirmed)
• Lawyer probably told her to shut the fuck up at this point seeing as she probably knew she was getting fired (speculation)
• Gets fired for leaking information (confirmed)
• Calli being the retard that she is runs her mouth again (confirmed)

she fucks up and uses her work account for private messages
fuckbuddy is like "I'LL FIX THIS"
she goes insane and makes it worse
he dumps her ass for money
kicks her out
she goes COMPLETELY OFF THE RAILS
cover is forced to fire her for breaking NDA as to set an example
because they can't just have their talents revealing their identities while still working for them all willy nilly
and suicide baiting
