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

[Blue Sky]

I think it's a similar situation to Yozakura Tama/Kusonoki Shio.

Clips/Fan Stuff tends to not get fucked with. There's no precedent to this

True, but there's still the possibility of clippers or animators deleting them, so archive your favorite clips or animation lads

 

[RainwaterDrop]

I wonder, what will be the MO when it comes to clips or fanarts of this shit?

niggas like 2ManySnacks have prominent Rushia fanims, if the channel is getting sunsetted would they copystrike the remaining clips or clippers?

Coco left and they didn't do shit with their animations featuring her. They aren't retarded enough to piss off prominent fanartists, they use a fuckton of fanart in their streams, they win nothing by unpersoning Rushia (which isn't a possibility, considering how popular she was) and lose a lot more by going down that path. Not happening!

Clips/Fan Stuff tends to not get fucked with. There's no precedent to this

They only ever interfere with doxxing stuff, and for good reason. Otherwise they stay calm, as messing with clippers is bad for business. These niggas literally make them money for free, and not even ones like OtakMori, who got publicly assblasted by them, got shot down!

Still, isnt it weird that they announced it just before Bakatare concert?
You'd think Cover would have kept this under wraps till AFTER the event, as to not bring the mood down, so either Cover PR is full of retards, or something REALLY forced their hand.

Both are equally plausible

Considering she is going full schizo mode according to the timeline that was posted, it's possible she forced them to with her erratic behaviour. We are in the dark and dealing with volatile circumstances, unless we are talking about retarded rrats like Rushia shooting up the Cover offices, anything remotely realistic goes!

 

[Hmmpf!]

So Fandeads who was actually threaten to kill themselves because of past Rushia x Mafu2 thing.......

.........Now is your chance!

 

[Penguin at Large]

This is gonna be a nice news to wake up to for Rushia's genmates and other sleeping holomems, unless they already knew?

Flare and Fubuki seems to know about this, so I'd assume they informed 3rd gen at the very least. Calli seems to be clueless though, so maybe an internal memo for the Japanese branch? Or maybe she's too retarded to read and think before tweeting whatever the heck's on her mind.

 

[Blatant hypocrite]

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"

To Null:
Remember the mentally ill anime girl with all the deranged fans we were talking about? She got fired for leaking private info. We don't know what kind of info she leaked, but yeah.

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.

and is fucking slow.

This breaks my immersion

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

It was like, one thing that she said one single time years ago. I don't know why people took it seriously in the first place. I'm sure she has good relations with her co-workers, but I wouldn't expect her to fall on her sword

 

[Noymoy]

Sasuga Rushia! Menhera until the very end!

Spoiler: translation

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 generation, I'd be happy if everyone could support us as we continue to work hard together.

I do believe in FBK is the canary in the mine. FBK has only ever acted in the best interest of her friends, the talent at Hololive and whenever anything bad happens, she's busy trying to sheer up fans. Someone would need to be addicted to cynicism to think otherwise.

Both are equally plausible

I think it was the latter and I think it's very possible they came out with it to let the concert try and smooth things over. As someone posted, Des P translated FBK saying she thought the notice went up sooner.

I'm a bit partial to "Calli is just being an idiot and didn't think straight", but the most logical reason is most likely they didn't tell the EN about it

 

[BibiLivesMatter]

Alright fandeads stay away from Nene she's a wife not girlfriend.

Damn I'm sure this will put all the girls in place especially the timid shy ones. Can't say I'm surprised Japanese companies are as ruthless as they are slow and out of touch.
In their eyes now someone needs to step up and fill the role that Rushia left behind and I'm sure some talents are up for the challenge that's just how their Japanese minds are programed to work, work, work.

If anyone is going to be vocal and protest it's gonna be EN I don't think anyone from JP or ID will say a damn thing.

Elden Ring comes out tomorrow and now Rushias been fired sure is looking like an interesting weekend.

I think you left out another thing that rhymes with rushia for an interesting weekend

 

[Beeg Booba Fishing]

EDIT: Just realized this is an animation about Rushia getting murdered. Oof

First part has her blurting out something she wasn't supposed to and getting ejected from her group of coworkers over it. It's a tldr of the whole situation.

---

Man I hope when Kiara wakes up she takes the notice in stride, I want my holobirds collab.

 

[ChefKiss]

I'm waiting to see what Marine says, she was the one who was closest to Rushia and she was helping her cope with the situation

I keep telling you all Calli is white trash with a chip on her shoulder. That's it, nothing grand to it. She's a talented idiot who won't think ahead.

 

[Rezza]

Oh right, forgot this part. If what the white fox is true, then the firing must be something that everyone in the company or group have agreed upon. Fubuki and Flare's reactions are... awfully calm for people whose colleague have just been fired

 

[ZMOT]

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!

dunno, had to deal with my fair of corporate retardation, and those were just yuropoors. even doing the right thing can be wrong in the eyes of the company if they deem so, it can still be considered insubordination or overstepping responsibility etc.
companies most of the time don't care about the motive or goal. let's say she did share manager DMs with an outside party, no one really would consider it bad, especially since most of use would consider the actual content of those DMs, but that doesn't matter, that's technically still confidential company communication.

my impression (for now) is that both are retarded. rushia was probably a bit too careless and naive, cover being a nip company kneejerking themselves into a low clearance underpass again.

You really seem to have a bone to pick with Cover, or you're just one of those people who think all corp = bad.

this is the same company that regularly gets shit on when one of the girls gets sick or overworks themself so hard they have to take a break. not to mention they might be "small" or "new", but they're a still a fucking japanese company, one that officially said they're an idol company. if you don't know how retarded those companies in that business sector are on a good day, you need to fucking lurk moar.

yagoo might be best girl chungus to us on the outside, but you don't get to become CEO by being nice. we don't know how hardball he plays when pissed off, but we do know the 2d menhera (to a certain degree). truth, like always, is probably somewhere in the middle. up to you to decide with the track record so far who's more at fault.

No one else's reaction matters in these dramas. Just look for what the fox says. That's how I go about it.

 

[Slowie Joey]

Just random curiosity but has anyone check on Orca? The Rushia mega simp people were talking about when this started

Shocked, I guess?

IMO there response are fine, other members had talked about how there thing you vent to your friend and not tye internet, for all we know Flare and friends were tweeting this while crying their eyes out, it's the mature thing to do not to air you emotion to estrangers on the web

 

[danny jr]

I had so many more things I wanted to do. She can't even say goodbye.
I can't stop throwing up.

I can't even say goodbye.

This hits differently now it's confirmed.

Feel free to give me puzzle pieces but my day and maybe my enjoyment of VTubers is ruined. Rushia was one of the few I actually enjoyed watching and the fact that they're probably going to delete all her VODs is discouraging. I remember some streamers I used to watch a few years back getting sacked caused me to lose interest in some games I used to play.
