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

[Gar For Archer]

Grow the fuck up. VTuber drama is literally the lowest stakes have ever been.

reading comprehension, bro. Nigga literally said that there’s more going on in the world than vtuber drama to want a break over.

Honestly i dont feel bad for rushia i actually feel sadness for the genmates and holomembers that she doxxed lmao. Flare and Noel sounded so pissed off and couldnt really care less while Pekora and Marine were crying there eyes out. If anything i think this shows who the dox affected. She fucked up. She let her emotions get the better of her instead of listening to cover and letting the whole thing blow over.

 

[paule]

Someone posted before that Koekore tweeted how oversea people accused him for this mess since Rushia leaked intel to him.
He felt compelled to pin an english comment of his stream vod because of this (lol):

 

[threesquares]

genmates and holomembers that she doxxed

Huh? When and where did that happen?

 

[Rratcatcher]

Huh? When and where did that happen?

The rrat is that she sent a lot more info to Korekore than what he showed in his stream. Possibly doxxing holomems and non-public staff.

 

[Sunflower Samurai]

Im just wondering if the discovered communications are enough for legal action towards Kore Kore, so far he admitted outright that he had info that probably wasnt smart to leak, but he did, lmao

 

[Big PiPi Energy]

Thank you, Youtube didn't send me a notification, and she has skyocketed into my top five in the last few weeks. With all of the Rushia shit, I needed her energy.

It's time for everyone to take the Pomu pill. Never been a better time. She's been an absolute treat lately.

 

[moments fade pain remains]

Registration is disabled again, lol.

I have a two headed rrat about Calli's tweet. She either actually had a problem with her stomach, worded it strangely, and she still doesn't know what happened to Rushia, or she doesn't like Rushia anymore having heard stuff from JChad, and Rushia was making her sick to her stomach.

Let's be real, we all know Calli overreacted.

Crunching some numbers:

Spoiler: HNGGGGGGGG NUMBERSSSSSS

Superchats (total):

Uruha Rushia - $3.2m (2y 7m)
Kiryu Coco - $2.9m (1y 6m)
Total = $6.1m

HoloX - $1.4m (3m)
Gen 5 - $3.4m (1y 6m)
Gen 4 (no Coco) - $4.1m (2y 1m)
Gen 3 (no Rushia) - $6.3m (2y 6m)
Gamers (no FBK) - $2.6m (2y 10m)
Gen 2 - $4.3m (2y 1m to 3y 6m)
Gen 1 - $2.5m (3y 8m)
Gen 0 - $800K (4y 5m)

Key notes:
• To this day, Coco earned about 70% of the rest of Gen 4's SC donations.
• Rushia earned about 51% of the rest of the Golden generation's total SCs.
• Coco and Rushia alone earned more than every individual generation combined except for Gen 3 (-$200K).
• Coco and Rushia are responsible for 20% of all of Hololive's SC donations since the company's inception.
• Based on current trends, it would take Sakamata Chloe about 1y 9m to reach Coco, and Koyori 2y 6m to do the same.

Now SC earnings are NOT the main vein of income for the member or the company, but it is a good idea of where they rank in more important things like sponsorships and merchandising.

I did this to show in no uncertain terms just how fucking gargantuan Coco and Rushia actually were.

EDIT: Phrasing on the percentages. 'Responsible for' implies I included their total SCs when I didn't.

Still waiting on the Kiara x Pomu collab.

Wanting to take a break over shit getting lit in the Ukraine is just as dumb unless you have immediate friends/family living over there or you're stuck there yourself.

Just shows you how badly she fucked up if they're completely wiping her

Im honestly surprised that the overall response to Cover isn't even that bad. Even the most misinformed and notorious simps for the talents are basically going "Understandable, this fucking sucks but a breach of contract is serious business".

 

[EenGevolg]

Finana seems to have her own chibi model too now https://twitter.com/FinanaRyugu/status/1496743065637122053

 

[DICTATOR]

All these latest pages have taught me is consigning my paycheck over to Japanese women I don’t understand to get my name read aloud is living life to the fullest.

 

[kadmckool]

Same happened for Kson, too. This is literally the strat.

Now she can get 65% of the SCs minus tax rather than 35% minus tax and not have to deal with shitty game permissions. V-Tuber corporations are the ultimate stopgap for aspiring streamers.

Need more data for that, with her falling from grace, she might only able to do little bit better than Misumi (not Lulu) despite Niji autists say that Lulu better go indies lmao.

Rushia and Lulu will be an interesting case study to learn about “what if they went indie” as we know Coco is the anomaly since pre Hololive days her content are decent with some interesting niche fan base from NND and Mildom. Just like Ame and Gura pre Hololive they are not as prominent as … Nyanners (ironically that back stab cat really know how to stay relevant)

It's because shitcanning Rushia just hurts Cover's bottom line. There's no way they would reasonably go straight to "We terminated the contract" unless it was actually serious.

You don't kill the goose that lays golden eggs unless the goose is so fucked up that you have no choice.

 

[Kill Your Idols]

Wanting to take a break over shit getting lit in the Ukraine is just as dumb unless you have immediate friends/family living over there or you're stuck there yourself.

It's just a single day of PTO. PTO exists so people take off for whatever reason they want, even if they just wake up and feel shitty. There's a reason why even soulless corporations give out allotted vacation days, it's so people can just say fuck this shit, I don't wanna deal with work today. It's a basic fucking benefit of working for certain corporations.

Obviously, this would change if all of the sudden one of them was like, "guys the world's too crazy, I can't stream anymore but please still give me superchats," because that's using world tragedy as an excuse for personal gain, but who cares if they take literally one day off because of weird vibes. If they make up the stream on another day, it's like barely anything changed anyway.

 

[PassiveUnaggressive]

Well, through all this, I hope Cover took the opportunity to can Rushia's manager. Just saying, if this is what happened in the end, it sounds like they weren't doing a very good job....

 

[5t3n0g0ph3r]

So, I've caught up with the Rushia news and I have a couple of thoughts.
1. She couldn't have handled it worse. She should have just let this blow over like the nothing-burger it was.
In fact, didn't Cover basically say the personal relationships of their talents were none of their business?
But, no. She went to JP Keem to "correct the record" and did not do as much as properly redact/remove the Hololive/Cover info to protect her colleagues. I wouldn't blame them if they were pissed at her for that.
2. The official statement from Cover indicated that there were leaks to 3rd parties. Are they saying have proof that this wasn't the first time it happened with Rushia?
3. ARCHIVE. EVERYTHING.
Rushia's channel is going down in March with all content deleted.
If there is no one downloading archiving all of her content, THERE SHOULD BE.
High priority with the Members Only content (just like with Coco).
This is not a drill!
