I dunno, how many rrats were started by Gunrun? It's definitely not zero, so we might as well demand compensation for him wasting our time

>>102971499
Isn't that normal though.
Even if a Holo has an orisong, its tied to Cover and their liver.

>>102971810
Yeah but Holo keeps the members IPs. The whole draw to VShojo was that they didn't and that the members could walk out at any time keeping everything.

>>102971499
I'm more surprised Vshojo as a brand keeps existing.

>>102972335
Officially they're declaring bankruptcy. A court will likely get involved in ordering them to distribute their assets and pay what debts they can, but most of that shit is likely getting locked up in some IP Holdings Firm's vault forever, to be used as lawsuit leverage against anybody that dares to use an IP that is rotting.

>>102972642
>getting locked up in some IP Holdings Firm's vault
really? they can do this? wtf. US is broken.

>>102972642

https://youtube.com/watch?v=d6bT3hjIhug

>>102974534
I'd assume Ironmouse's are worth a few thousand a piece and VShojo will be hard pressed by bankruptsy court not to let them go cheap, especially when they have Ironmouse herself as a relatively rich potential buyer.

It wouldn't be the first time a company went bankrupt and the burden was put on the people they let go. There's no justice in this world, which is what allows certain other companies to continue to exist.

Good for her

>>103054585
You don't denounce the victim in her time of need and then start bad mouthing the perpetrator months later unless something is seriously wrong with you or your motive is entirely self serving. Twisty has never accused men of being anything she hasn't accused herself of being, which is amazing, given how long and how many men conspired to protect her sexual predator, not even admitting there was any wrong doing, even after they finally let him go. Any sane woman would be terrified of men after going through all that for so long, yet she's still here, trying to provide comfort for them.

>>103069508
Yeah but you know how it is on Twitter though, they rather pay more attention to someone being transphobic than someone being a rapist

Zentreya puts an end to their podcast with Arielle and unfollows her, leading to unending speculation as to why.

Any details?

>>103167129
Nothing beyond what was covered in the one and one half minute video.
>This has been going on for years, and they have had streamers that are openly supporting terrorist organizations. They've had streamers commit animal abuse and/or driving through red lights because they were adjusting their freaking stream, which is to me insane. We've had streamers that are openly doxing and threatening viewers with weapons during a live stream and have also sent their own community members to harass viewers. All of these people I've mentioned are in the top tier and they will never get banned.

Hero17 confirms the rrat that Xigneon is Aster/Aeytha, with all the sexual baggage that entails.
https://xcancel.com/heero17/status/1951815582208168316#m
(Clearly Niji did zero research on this guy.)
Given that Aeytha is no longer a vtuber, unless new alegations are made against Aster or Niji miraculously makes good on their promise to share the results of the supposed investigation, this maybe among the last you hear of it /here/ - though I suppose there's always the possibility that Aeytha will harass another vtuber.

We should probably make mention of Youtube rolling out the age verification AI come August 13, as that's going to affect everyone's ability to view chuubas, especially if Youtube decides anime girls are stuff only teenagers would watch. Might want to make a reference to the UK's Online Saftey Act, as that's already affecting everyone in the UK. Apparently both YouTube and some ISP's over there are blocking VPN's to "protect children". (Despite the fact that any kid old enough to set up a VPN is clearly old enough to watch anything on Youtube.)

Got a petition link for the UK thing, but either this isn't the largest one, or the British are just thoroughly resigned, as there's only about 500K signatures on it:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/722903

People have been sending feedback on Youtube (which you can do by clicking on your avatar icon), as well as spamming their tech support, but unless it's enough to effectively DDOS the site, I doubt it'll do anything, as they ignore all that stuff anyway. You can also @TeamYouTube on the twits, which they sometime respond to if it reaches critical mass, though I've no good retweet source off hand. Dexterto's pretty big, I guess:

The government responded when it was at 300k a few days in to basically say "get fucked" so probably people have given up on the petition option.

I suspect bad machine translation is at play here, but taken literaly it basically says she's developed a condition where her "eyes turn upward during a live stream".

Debut Stream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm2mV2pyd3k

>>103196104
I've summarised the 93 pages in case anyone in interested but not enough to read the full thing.

So this is actually written by three people: Radia, her boyfriend, and another streamer called LazerPig
>Adora initially organises an intervention for Radia with two other members of their group
>Adora draws up a document supposedly summarising everything spoken about over VC
>these supposed issues include Radia's partner streaming whilst Radia was off streaming due to illness (it's not really explained why this would be considered an issue)
>another supposed issue was Radia complaining about funds when she was the best performing out of the group
>Adora frequently pressures Radia to take a break from streaming and all social media, using language like "centering yourself"
>Radia's partner eventually confronts Adora over her behaviour; his complaints are dismissed as "doing a misogyny"
>Radia is expelled from their group
>Adora and others (not stated who) begin to try to spread rumours about and blacklist Radia
>Adora hands out Radia's full government name to multiple third parties, encouraging them to look up Radia's LinkedIn account
>Radia attempts to kill herself

Should be noted that multiple other vtubers are in the QTs saying they've also experienced Adora trying to isolate them from others, including one of her former editors who has multiple tweets about their own experiences
https://x.com/SilvySpark/status/1953212458279031131
Adora has said she's going to be putting out her own document in about a week

tl;dr for the claims: Adora isolated Radia from her friends and from her community, doxed Radia to multiple third parties, Radia attempts to kill herself

No, as in her behaviour apparently. The two big ones seemed to be her frequently complaining about personal finances around the others despite her doing better in terms of metrics, and her boyfriend streaming when she was off sick. Like I say it doesn't really go into why her boyfriend streaming wouod even be an issue but having read through it all I think there's a lot of mental illness from all parties involved in this.

I don't see where they've announced they've disolved, but it's not surprising. I've never seen an agency survive losing their CEO. I think that'd kill even Cover, though maybe not Nijisanji.
Not clear if the CEO attempted this knowingly and got caught, or just failed to do a background check on a guy the community knew about.

I think it leans more to the former. There are some Xitter exposee in Indonesian on how the CEO is trying to give the guy 'a second chance', and even going as far as bringing the issue to other staffs and talents

Once done, her exit from Palette Project happened, but a standard termination did not follow; she was instead re-signed as a sole individual under MateReal Co, the agency managing all activities related to the Palette Project, which happens to be owned by the large Japanese conglomerate, Brave Group.

Cera Luceria of Globie reduces streaming to members only and may have a hiatus as she deals with a family emergency:
https://xcancel.com/CeraLuceria/status/1953192780471345382

>>103274113
who's that? also seems something she did herself

>>103275896
She's mid-sized ex-Vreverie, a well connected vtuber who recently orgnized a 64 vtuber balls cup. I've seen enough of her to imagine her pulling the prank, but not making it up for the twitter points - though maybe one of her fans did.

>>103270795
It is. But Adobe has done some hilariously heinous shit before so who knows.

>>103274113
>- i once asked a boy i was intimate with to come into an egg cup so i could get accustomed to the flavor slowly because i have ARFID (meaning i have a hard time eating foods that are new to me) and needed to “microdose on come” in order to be able to swallow. as my mod said “i got medically diagnosed as a spitter”
>- my irl name is [redacted]. i was named after furry porn accidentally
aaaand dropped

>>103278065
What else have they done?

>>103278148
what the fuck am I reading? I've read it 3 times by now but still... what the fuck?

>>103278065
I cant remember but I think there was a whole shit fest with Adobe making it incredibly hard to cancel the subscription as well as making it that they were gonna force Ai and have the programs machine learn from creators. They introduced a new user agreement that basically said we have the right to have our ai learn from you without your consent. It was some mustache twirling shit ( they eventually ran it back after the backlash I think)

>>103278359
>>103278604
Meant for

>>103278148
Yeah, she's definitely not idol or GFE material, more of a goofball like Punkalopi, but with insider trading, maybe better known among vtubers than as a vtuber. She's fun though.
