I don’t know but any company founded by a chink with a
>we’ll be Hololive, but better and without the anti chink rhetoric
manifesto as their “about us” can’t possibly succeed.

They likely had the idea of forming that company during the chinkout, so they wrote their audition page to be
>we are just like Hololive, except without their black company ways and sinophobia

>even one of their idols which was haachamas sisters acknowledged her
Anon here >>31135289 is thinking of AkioAir, not the jewtuber company.

Pic related is their audition page and they even shilled themselves hard in this board.
But they fucked up with that comparison so some sort of topical "JunsGang" made it a point to effortlessly put them down in this board and make sure their name is associated with that fuck up

>Shot in the dark, but anyone know how the anti-hololive, heavy-lore approach is working out for akioair?
Akio Air. They failed miserably and never escaped 2 digits hell to the best of my knowledge.

They astroturfed even this very board heavily but, to the best of my knowledge, the only breakout star of theirs is Athena, and mostly because she's a content creator that contributed massively to Haachama lore even writing and singing a theme song.

She's wasted there btw, she already had a model and likely signed it off to them. She could EASILY be a good addition for VShojo JP and, unironically, have a better mutual relationship with them than NotRushia and NotCoco, as there would be no bridges to burn to make it happen.

Here is the part where they fucked up tremendously

They could EASILY have capitalized on the fact Athena collabed with Haachama and was featured in her streams and given some protagonism even. Haatons would back her up 100%

But her company added that bit on and KILLED any chance of any goodwill with teh Holo community.
It was not even the worst part, which would be

>We never punish our talents for actions they did not do intentionally.
>Instead, we will try to shield them from cyber attacks and do our best job protecting our talent's sensitive information.

That killed their kitten 100%. Most people don't even know they exist but some do, and those who do are more likely than not personally invested in the idea that they will fail and nothing better to achieve that than posting their own words for as many people to see as possible.
