This guy somehow pulled in tens of investors, hundreds of indies and thousands of supporters, and changed the narrative on Hololive, in span of 4 years, simply because he yapped and yapped and yapped about talent freedom and IP ownership

His influence and the ability to lie and get away with it for 4 years should be studied. Not even politicians can put on fake mask this long

He had a history as an early employee of Twitch back in the early 2010, he didn't just get supporters, fame and VC capital as a random nobody in Vtubing, that's why he had a lot of trust and backing before founding Vshojo. But yes, he lied and screwed over people mismanaging everything. That "apology" of a tweet will screw him over.

Are you kids old enough to remember Enron?

I would say he failed horribly on this, all of those paid shill trying to paint Hololive as black company never really did anything other than more shitpost about it on /here/ which probably just the same paid shill doing extra work for extra (promised) money

Normalfag always hate le idol culture it's nothing new, Hololive enemy isn't just Vshojo obviously, there are Nijinigger and Vtuber-anti in general, the real fans opinion on the company pretty much unchanged, their most successful attempt is when there is graduation streak but when the some talent speak up to defend the company and warn the fans about falseflagger their narrative died pretty quick.

Running through vtubing companies and saw one with eerily similar ending as Vshojo. Both are founded by pinoy, talents ran away before closing, and CEO bolted. Word for word, play by play is the exact thing we're seeing with vshojo kek

>>102688667
Company name is kometa

>>102688667
If a CEO comes at you and said "We are better than Hololive", then there is a 90% chance that they are bluffing and you will fall for their trap

If it is "We are better than Nijisanji" then the chances are lowered because Niji's standard is pretty fucking low

All the women crying to their parasocial viewers Gunrun better hope they put him in jail. I don’t pretend to know what is actually going on but if i had a dozen anime girls saying that I abused them I would be shitting myself. I mean look are how far someone as lame Pipppa’s fans have gone.

Gunrun probably tried shorting Tesla with those funds, losing it all like the Redditors.

>>102687960
Are you still getting paid? I'll report your ass to the IRS KuroShojo shill

People get paid to shit up this board?

>>102693563
Yup. Vei confirmed Vshojo was paying people to trash hololive and their former talents

>>102693592
So do phasefags do it for free? Give me free coffee fishman and I'll shit talk the blue dorito and the negrosanji

Losing 3 members in a month is still better than losing entire roaster in a day, and Gura has not said anything bad about Holo other than "I can make loli jokes as an indie!"

>>102694175
So Vshojo is not a black company? Everyone is graduating from it easily now Capain America!

>>102694125
Yeah I remember when Yagoo witheld contractually earned pay from his talents and stole from charity...

>Average operations costs is keeping internet going so their streams don't get scuffed
I estimated their yearly operation cost in SA with 40+ employees to be over 5 million $ and that's just regular wages not any of the other expenses.
Vshojo's ship wasn't really as slim as I expected.

>>102690845
let me try...
"We are better than WACTOR"

>>102687579
The true con woman, she even got away with it, too

>>102690318
How old do you think Yagoo is?

I just wanna know how people thought vshojo was a step above holo and niji, when they didn't even have a proper 3D studio.

>>102691135
he's the worst kind of asian
he's filipino

Think of an average person. And then remember that statistically half of humanity is dumber than them.

>Needs +40 people to manage the business where the talents already do most of the work
I get back office and administration requires a certain amount of people behind the curtains, but THIS is jusy Gunrun literally having no idea how to run a business. I'm almost starting to believe the version of the story that he didn't actually steal the money, he's just such an inept administrator/manager that he could fuck up a cup of coffee. I shake my head at these people but at the same time they fascinate me. It's like the high IQ IT or the risk analysis guys at my job. They're extremely knowledgeable in their field but give them a leadership roll and they almost by deliberation steer the ship into the only iceberg in the sea while panicking. It has to be autism or something on the spectrum.

>Starts with 11-something million dollars
>Overspends greatly on contracts
>"If you leave, you get to keep everything we gave to you! Fuck it take your table, take your pencils, take your customers!"
>Bankrupt because of how shit of a concept that is, basically a charity company that gives away money and assets
>All the girls call you the devil now after they took every penny, "I haven't been paid since September, around 400-500k unpaid", implying during the peak of VShojo they were paid years' worths of salaries in a year alone
>Somehow he's the only bad guy here and there's nothing to be said about the women that blundered two years worth of salaries for fun only to write up a sob story about how evil VShojo is for no longer being able to overpay them

>>102698210
No you asshole because it's a good business model that works on trust as long as you don't violate it and at least do the minimum in behind the scenes operations. When you're idea of dealing with business or monetary problems is ghosting or lying to your employees while hoping the problem solves itself. That just displays a complete lack of manegerial skills and by looking at Gunrun I think that was the problem. I think he never intended Vshojo to get as big as he did so he panicked while going along with the ride. Normally you'd recognizing your limitations and would hire a vice president or someone who does most of the operations work, but because you're a weeb and possibly on the spectrum you don't do this and instead let go of the wheel and YOLO.

>>102698045
He only had 12 talents at the time. It's obvious that the math didn't add up and they lost 11 million in just 3 years.

>>102698210
>they took every penny
>these greedy bitches had the audacity to ask for their share of their contractually obligated income which this retard misappropriated! This is why I hate women!

>>102699081
>Such a scumsucker that a company he was loosely involved with sees the need to do damage control for PR reasons
Jesus, how does Gunrun suck so hard!

>>102699264
I forgot that I wanted to point out with that picture that he may have never had to manage a business before. Some people thought Vshojo was just his side business and the backpack company was also partially managed and owned by him kek.

>>102699024
Gunrun makes me think I'd do a better job as a manager. I've never managed a single person in my life, but he gives me hope.

nah, you're not deflecting VShitter staff, WHERE IS THE MONEY?

>>102687960
Go find a real job already you dumb fuck.

>>102699415
Hilariously as long as you don't cheat and lie to your employees while pilfering the payroll you'd already be more qualified than him.

>>102687579
This is the best one since the money will keep flowing kek

>>102697157

Nah, he still a child who ponzi'd a niche industry and was far from a true mogul. But killing your talents when they leave you...
