Depends on the agents, some will just accept anything but want to charge you up front. A lot won't look at it because it might have IP in it, like the one who looked into his work and asked him to change things to be more generic, they don't want any accusations of infringement. Really, if you want to publish and are that confident, go to Amazon, that's how Michael Malice got his Anarchist Handbook published, because as shit as Amazon is they do have some good resources for people who want to build things without breaking the bank or working with more clunky middle men.
Worked a bit in the publishing industry so I can testify that's not really the case. Respectable literary agents are busy as hell and can drop a book if it doesnt hook them in the first few paragraphs. His logline and his pitch had to be really good for them to even give it a chance. Agents drop submissions because they're boring or don't see potential in the work or author. Most of the time they don't email back, so I'm actually more inclined to believe DN when he says he's good since *two* agents showed interest.

Self-publishing is also very difficult and expensive. It needs a shit ton of marketing, funding, and at times would even require an established audience to even break even with the expenses he'd spend. It's not as easy as people make it out to be. That being said, I don't get why he just doesn't publish it on places like Wattpad though. I'm guessing because he's saving it for a future endeavor.

Are these publishers in the USA or overseas? You do have to keep in mind he might have submitted these to publishers in the Philippines for example which probably have less stringent standards.

I think this used to be the case as self publishing through platforms like Amazon is rather new, but from everything I've heard many authors who have published in the past through agencies have said it's actually easier and rather cheap to use services like Amazon which now mimic print to demand almost in the same fashion getting a set of T-shirts made.
 
My favorite ones were her attempts at an scottish accent. (and I'm being generous with "attempts")

Probably just someone who have a really sick sense of joke, unless there's a record of Artia actually played AK back when she's still part of holo.

Not to mention that since CN Arknights and Global are way different in terms of client and also servers, the chance of not-sana being all "oh ho i befriend this holoCN woman" is pretty nil, since you can't add friends from different server region.
 
Someone in Lia's chat just said that there is Phase Connect fanfic....
Unfortunately. Fortunately (?) this is the only one I could find.

Mumei teaching English to Towa.
This was cute and hilariously autistic. It's difficult enough to explain tablet drivers, how to use colons, and English ordinal numbers with a common language. :story:

Towa/Mumei have been turning into one of those odd collab pairs like Roboco/Ame and PekoMoon; they have yet another Apex collab coming up, this time with Zeta as their third wheel.

Yeah I was just thinking about some rando possibly changing their name for shits n giggles. At that point of the stream she was accepting friend requests as long as their names met certain criteria (more or less "how would you describe Mizuki's armpits?") so people were renaming themselves on the spot.

CMIIW isn't Artia the one who goes all the way to the US to get vaccine cause she doesn't have faith on Chinese vaccine, and rants about it when she's stuck in the airport unable to return home?

Honestly I have no fucking clue. By the time I fell deep into the hole that is hololive, CN already turned into graduated mess.

Oh right, forgot to mention that you can buy those rename thingie pretty cheap and you got one for free.
 
The reason why I am like, definitely going to shoot my shot at Phase Connect when they open apps again because they're something different. Like a indie movie versus cape stuff. The individuals in the Big 2 are wonderful, and the companies are cool, but I have a huge level of respect of how Sakana is and the talents he's cultivated.

He's cautious, but he lets his talents go off the races. I'd love to see how good I could be, given a wrangler that would actually rangle and not strangle.

Remember me if you need a chat mod.

I don't think ppl particularly care about Rust. Its the proximity voice and the random collabs of ppl that don't really collab usually if ever.

No there's a lot of bottom-barrel autists like me that unironically watch for buildgame comfort. The company cross-pollination is a nice bonus though.
