You know this is bad right?
Holo is so desperate for revenue. They are doing ads for phone cases made by some no body company.

Holo has fallen. This is over. Your oshis' future is cheap ads for Chinese trash product companies. Literally made for NTR.

A true fan should see all aspect of their love and be able to have rational discussions; so, discuss.

How good or not a sign these are depends on the going rate Cover charges. Actually we know from financial reports that they charge a fucking arm a leg. Tens if not hundreds of K depending what it is.

A sponsor is not gonna pay Phase like 250k to have some shitter with 200 brown viewers shill a product. But they will for Cover. It's like comparing late night TV ads vs Superbowl. If they want vtubers to shill something it is hard to get better than Cover except for the absolute top Nijis, of which there are like maybe 5 who are comfortable to Holo clout.

That 400% markup is needed for Rhinoshield to sell you a Chinese phone case with an official Hololive license.

ngl this is a shit direction for Cover for just going pure Corpo. It's not organic all big executives pushing numbers around and using the girls to make numbers go higher. Sign a contract to some chinese factory to make print a waifu on some plastic raw cost of a few cents and sell it for 50USD... come on man. Some of thee girls barely stream and now when they do it's for some sponsor where the stakes are high for them to try and shill for a product that is alright they probably won't buy it unless given for free.

why is there so many threads about any sponsor ENs do while in JP is rampant.

Like a popular Holo JP shills at least 10 different brands a year, not counting merch collabs, and they're not even allowed to say bad comments about the games they play.

They're pretty much walking billboards.

Because as much as you might not like it, most of the people here are western fans of EN, which has historically been pretty chill with ads and brand merch being pushed out. The last year and a half has seen a huge increase in merch and advertising from the talents as a whole.
It also doesn't help that the western audience generally has a bit more of a negative stance towards outright shilling and it turns a lot of people off. It's why you'll see stuff like what Ina, Kiara, and Mori did for the MythMash, where they just said 'yeah these are lines that management fed us to read word for word', because it at least takes a little of the pressure off of them and their fans to feel like they need to support it or the product.

I don’t see how a phone case is any worse or better than an acrylic standee that every single vtuber company shills for a 2000% markup besides being slightly more usable in every day life. It’s not just a Hololive thing. Selling overpriced plastic is the MO of like 75% of all companies in general it’s just a matter of which overpriced plastic you are willing to pay money for. If you don’t like it don’t buy it, and speak with your wallet. If they see shit sales from this event then they will reconsider stuff like this in the future, otherwise if it does well then you are just being proven to be a poor loser whining on the internet.

I don't have a problem with that. But these shill streams are just embarrassing man. Perhaps this is JP management being unaware that the west is long tired of shameless overt grift?

Don’t buy it, don’t watch it. It’s that easy. Otherwise it isn’t going to stop and will even accelerate if cover doesn’t have their business in proper order. Hell even if it doesn’t stop, and accelerates or gets worse, than cover is on borrowed time as a company anyways and it’s inevitable failure will lead to the talents going indie and doing things how they want to which may result in less sponsored shit, who knows. But whining about it won’t change anything and just makes people feel worse.

JP will do fine, consumers over there are much more likely to buy into that shit because anime in general hits more like Dinsey does in the west. The problem is that vtubing is a niche of a niche over here, meaning EN is likely to see the actual hit from oversaturating the market with images of their characters.

I'd rather they do a stream about sponsored phone cases than some gacha game that's engineered to push my addiction buttons. It feel bad whenever my oshis do those because I know that they probably make some kind of kickback from sales but I am never, ever, ever going to play that shit.

That has more to do with tariffs fucking up shipping prices and DHL chagrining out the ass, if Western fans got similar shipping prices compared to Japan everything sell out very quick
