I think she said it for her Japanese viewers who have their own conception of corporations, believing that their interpretation of "Vshojo isn't a corporation" is closer to the truth than their interpretation of "Vshojo is a corporation with creative freedom".

Being a member of Hololive is clearly more lucrative than Vshojo, I think that's hardly even a question. Even with the higher splits most Holos will be or already are millionaires. But I guess some people value different stuff.
In my opinion, the real test of Vshojo will be if they can elevate a 2view. Hololive can take an under-100 median CCV streamer and turn them into a 5-10k median streamer. vshojo hasn't demonstrated that (that I know of).

I'm still looking for it. I haven't seen a direct declarative sentence of "VShojo is not a company", nor have I found "VShojo is a company."
I have seen instances where she talks about it AS IF it were a company, and then describes it in other ways like "They're a bunch of tech people", etc.
I am of the position that VShojo is by legal definition "a company", but I also think that you can describe them in other ways, without contradicting a statement that legal entity is a company, e.g. saying "They are just a loose agency" is also saying "They are a company [with some additional properties X, Y and Z]."

I am looking for evidence that Kson said this directly. Not because I agree or disagree (it's not debatable: VShojo is legally a company), but I think /vt/ threadreaders paraphrase, twist things around, or outright make things up. These things get repeated so much, they forget that it was a rephrasing or summary in the first place.

As you would know, a question this raises is "When and how does this matter?"

So you wrote:
>You can't say "we're just a talent agency and nothing more", you're lying then.
I agree they are a company, but VShojo aren't opening themselves up to any liability by putting out a statement saying "We are an agency!" It would only matter if they said "We are not a company", which to my knowledge they haven't (and would be VERY legally different than if Kson claimed so). Even if VShojo had said "We are not a company", who would have standing, and for what tort, to do act on that?
Setting aside that I haven't seen VShojo claim "We are not a company!", I am trying to decide where that would matter if they did. The only situation I can imagine is this: if they did not file any taxes, and in response to an inquiry by the IRS said "We are not a company!" then they're (b) pretty fucked, (b) dumb, and (c) deserve everything that happens to them. But I can all-but-assume they haven't done that?

As long as what most people here is "We're an agency not like a traditional talent company!" it seems like a fantastic idea to me. Branding is super, super important, and majority of consumer brands live entirely on the "Look how unique and different we are!" aesthetic.

What most people hear is "There's no structure, we're just a group of artists". I had to explain to a couple of anons a couple months back that Melody doesn't own the company, I've heard it from people all over "they're not a company, they're a group of friends that are working together". Now that they have investors that they are going to be beholden to there is no way they can operate like Kson claimed. If the investors want something, it has to happen.

>If the investors want something, it has to happen.
I am not the accountant who posted. I am the business owner, and your statement is only half true. In all but the most bizarre situations, a company's leadership knows better than investors how to run the business. My company's investors have no fucking idea how to do what we do, and they don't tell how to operate, because they know where their knowledge ends and our expertise begins.
In almost every investment situation, company leadership already told the investors their existing plans, and the investors said "that seems plausible enough to be worth the risk" before investing. It is rare that it is the other way around: investors give money and immediately say "Okay now do X, Y, Z." Most of the time the investors just want the company to succeed at doing whatever the leadership already told them they would do. Now what was the strategy that VShojo told their investors they have? I have no idea, and guessing seems irresponsible.

>Seed capital is selling your soul
Show me an investor who is DIRECTING a seed-stage company's operations in a fine-grained manner, and I will show you a seed-stage company that is going to fail. It is selling your soul when your don't meet your projections, and your CEO does a bad job at managing his board. It comes down to specifics (to the point where I cannot honestly guess what VShojo has). You absolutely can be forced to seek more capital on bad terms, or move the company in a direction that leadership is against. In the worst case, the board can fire the CEO and replace them. That is rare, but definitely within the realm of possibility (if the company is failing).

>there is no way they can operate like Kson claimed

I don't disagree on those points. I doubt they're gonna heel turn in the next 6 months or anything, but conflicts are inevitable especially in such an emerging field. It's a tale that's insanely common in tech, which is probably the most comparable field.
Maybe because I'm an accountant instead of an entrepreneur I'm a little more cynical, but saying "as long as the investors stay happy and you meet your projections you're free" is like saying as long as you don't get hurt you don't need insurance
>I don't think you can say that statement is correct or incorrect
I think that's a problem all it's own. This was presented as a QnA kind of format, people are trusting her to be straight up. When you're affirmatively saying something that you can't really say for sure will be true you are deceiving people. Especially when an employee is the person called to do this kind of corporate deception it is concerning. I would have given them way more leeway if they structured it like an interview and Kson had Mowtendoo answer these questions because you expect a big of corpo speech from a CEO. He's putting his employees on the line for his company's actions because you know if they deviate at all from what she said that Kson is the one they'll come for

I completely agree, especially because their investors' history is mostly in the recent tech wave. My instinct is that this is a bad fit, but it greatly depends on the investors' expectations. If they expect a multiple similar to investing in a dominant player of a new SaaS segment, I don't see how VShojo gets that high. But then again, I'm not in their vertical, so just because I don't see it doesn't mean shit.
I want to believe that an intelligent investor would base their expectations of VShojo by blending in the model of other entertainment companies, and not just assume tech-adjacency means tech-like financial models. But who knows what VShojo's sold them on?

>but saying "as long as the investors stay happy and you meet your projections you're free" is like saying as long as you don't get hurt you don't need insurance
It's not a perfect metaphor but I understand what you are going for.
Where it isn't perfect is this: capital enables you to do things you couldn't before, but comes with risks. Insurance is a hedge against risk, but doesn't enable you to do things you could not before. You can lack health insurance and still going skiing, even if it's dumb to. You can't run a $1MM marketing strategy if you don't have a million dollars. So you accept the additional risk that comes with capital, in order to enable a capability that you didn't have before.

>>27693947
>[expectations] in the field of vtubing kinda like the [expectations] that were had for blockchain?
I can't speak universally, but I certainly don't get that sense. Most "blockchain" businesses were a way to keep the gravy train rolling for the owners of the underlying crypto assets, as >>27694240 said. A content-based or talent-based business has a different value proposition than just "(1) We use blockchain instead of a database, (2) ???, (3) PROFIT!!"
Investor FOMO is real, hype happens, but most institutional investors should be able to identify the vast distinction. Even if 10 more vtuber agencies were to raise venture capital, that doesn't even begin to approximate the huge numbers and runaway valuations that you saw in 2017-2018 in "blockchain" companies.

A talent agency represents talent during negotiation. People display that agency so people can contact them, and in some cases they benefit from the branding and promote that they're signed with them to show their status. She is not hired by that company or salaried. She isn't a part of that company in the same way Ryan gosling isn't employed or part of a company. He's employing them for negotiations and giving them a cut of his money he gets from those negotiations succeeding. They aren't an idol company, they're a talent agency. Usually they're run by one or two people. Large ones are companies. Vshoujo is tiny.
