Not with yakuza, but vshojo.

A L L

Joking aside, I think all Japanese "AVtuber agency" are probably like that. Masquerade, Emo-echi Production, Tama Project, etc.

>>29246589
Why did this do it for me. What is wrong with me

>virtual idols
Hololive. Yakuza owns idol industry.

They've been grooming idols as sex partners for the powerful and wealthy for many years now... Yet people still just look away. There really is no hope for humanity.

>>29246293
Nijisanji turns a good profit. $100 million in sales last year and $20 million in profits.

>Coco NUT

>>29246293
Hololive and Nijisanji are big enough.
That traps vtuber that always leeches from others via interviews could be money laundering cuz I dont think her sameface vtubers even break 1K viewers.

>>29246589
My sweet Yakuza princess...

Yakuza actually make a big point of keeping their "clean" public businesses separate from their "shady" private ones. They want to be seen as legitimate businessmen, because it makes it easier to get away with the dirtier stuff. It's why they don't like people making uma musume porn. They don't want horse racing getting a bad reputation and tarnishing their public image.

>>29247974
If you wonder how they make their money here's a breakdown of sales.

Domestic Livestreaming was 21.1% (supas, members, ad revenue)
Domestic Commerce was 46.9% (merch and voices)
Domestic Events was 5.5%
Domestic Promotion was 16% (sponsorship)
Nijisanji EN 8%
Other Areas 2.5%

>>29246293
Hololive unironically has Vtubers that are connected to both the yakuza and foreign rich elite business owners.

>>29248238
So livestreaming is roughly 1/3 of what the merch+sponsorship income is. I knew that the supas weren't a vtuber's biggest income, but I didn't realize the difference was that large. That really puts Vshojo in perspective. With them taking a huge cut of merch sales and leaving talents with the donations and the 50% cut of subscriptions Twitch leaves behind.

>>29248712
Yeah it's surprising that most of the money is made around the content rather than from the content.

>>29246293
Who's that? Looks like a textbook yakuza.
Most of real mafioso that I know acts like an ordinary person to not attract any unnecessary attentions.

>>29246589
My father in law is a yakuza?

I thought that it was a /jp/ meme

>>29248293
>foreign rich elite business owners.
Who?

>>29257443
shinobu tsukasa. the boss of the biggest yakuza clan in japan

>>29258794
reine comes from big money. idk why "foreign" was specified as a scare word there though

>>29248220
>Yakuza are learning that it's easier to make way more money by going legit
This is literally how the Yakuza are portrayed in Shadowrun

>>29246293
get the fuck of brazil and return to japan or those ukranian and russian would be the dominant criminal org in your home country

>>29257563
not a meme when some japanese goes missing after they shitpost about Lamy due to the "Janitor" yab

>>29246589
Sauce for this rrat?

>>29246293
hololive at the very least. not only is it probably involved in japanese organised crime, but US three letter agency as well

>>29262691
From Lamy myself. Just /become/ Lamy and (You) will also gain access to this knowledge automatically

>>29261980
Truly the cyber punk genre was prophetic and we are living in the corpodystopia as we speak

>>29263504
I don't think usa agencies are involved. it would be degeneracy to max

>>29246589
hot daughter

Yakuza vtuber when?

>>29247196
>tfw you will never be yakuza

>>29262691
The rrat comes how she asked her dad for a large sum of money to build her stream setup and gives it to her with no hesitation. She proudly boasted that she can pay back her dad unlike other times she asked for large sums of money.

>>29274623
Instead, I'm one of those Jap biker gangs.

>>29246624
Even SEGA have connections to the Yakuza.

>>29275509
There’s also how she made her original manager disappear, as well the high attrition rate for Gen 5’s management in general.

>>29246589
>ywn seduce Lamy into being your wife
>ywn have a tough Yakuza in-law that you have to earn the respect of
>ywn earn his respect and become family
>ywn breed an entire new generation of Yakuza with Lamy.
Fucking sucks

>>29277360
They hate non japs

>>29246293
The yakuza are piss poor these days. They barely break even to need a money laundering scheme.

>high attrition rate for Gen 5’s management in general.
You do know Nene's manager has been enforcing a bedtime on her right? And it's hard to apply "attrition" to Polka when she was (supposedly) given cart blanche to do whatever she wants from the very start. Not that I'm arguing the Lamy point, as she's told enough stories to make it clear she comes from some kind of big money, but the management point seems tenuous at best.

>>29246589
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgWkKI9_S7o
The tea and chair stories from this video

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DB_PhDBEd4c
How she talks about her family, like how her brother is a "lawyer". She mentions her father runs his own "business" and how he wants someone to take over when he retires.

>Her collabs with Coco
Coco who's whole schtick was being a Yakuza dragon, was always strangely really polite to Lamy.

>>29246293
The corporations are essentially e-pimps. Relatively low overhead for big returns, especially if they're can become big enough for sponsorship deals.

Now the 2views? Of course they lose money.

>>29263504
holoEN is involved with three letter agencies, holoJP and holoID are involved with the yakuza

why are yakuza usually shown in a positive light in anime ?

>>29286045
Sorry I can't talk about that here

>>29286045
They're more honorable than those who work for the government

>>29286045
They work to keep a good public image by doing things like helping out with disaster relief efforts. Similar to how the mob used to do. Keep the general public happy and you don't have to worry about them ratting you out on anything and everything they might see.

>>29252949
This has always been the case in every entertainment business - look at anime or Disney.

>>29246589
Remember how Nene traced Idolmaster but no one gave a fuck. Perk of being a Yakuza princess' friend. Also, she may have something to do with Aloe's father thing.

>>29286045
The same reason people glamorize the mafia.

>>29291308
not the same thing, I'm not talking about portrayal of anti-heroes or morally grey villains, I'm talking about
1. mentioning yakuza at all, even in shonen anime and even in stories where they don't need to be involved
and
2. showing (some of) the yakuza as genuinely good guys
I mean I can think of an explanation but I hope it's not that straightforward

>>29278701
the way to overcome racism in japan is to be openly racist towards the chinese and koreans. one weird trick they don't want you to know

>>29246293
It's not hard to break even really. If your talents are 3views and you're taking a cut of their income you can make enough to survive on. Especially if you're putting out merch.
