Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence. These girls are not smart, they're not even educated, that's why they went into vtubing in the first place. To them, Vshojo was a tag in their Twitter bio. They didn't handle sponsorships or merch, they just went online every day to play vidya while everything else was being handled for them. That is, they were being robbed blind. Veibae noticed it first, but couldn't ring the alarm because they immediately silenced her with an NDA. Then the grift continued, some other old talent put two and two together, and each graduated accordingly. Eventually, this misappropriation of funds reached a point where it was impossible to keep hidden, because they nicked half a mil of charity money, and that's when everything collapsed at once.
