Her character assassination by Kurosanji is considered a huge success by its standard. Even her document is only getting around 4k retweets, with half of that being seething sisters. She's not around long enough to build networks with artists and indies, and didn't have enough time to have a dedicated fanbase.

>>70275268
JEEEEESAS, holy fuck what a downfall.

>>70280003
It might be her best outfit, for me its either this one or the one with the hoodie

>>70279794
Actually the shipping isn't that bad. Each batch is ~$25 in shipping

>>70280029
Honestly. The performances and stages are amazing, they should've just gone all in on that, and cut the 'game' a long time ago

>>70279876
Falin is so lucky...

They keep talking about the female unit debuted in Q2/summer, that's Advent right? Man it's funny seeing them talk circles around the Homos though, on one hand it's nice that Cover will Cover their talents ass even if they're underperforming, but on the other it's the fucking homos. Also interesting to note that, as every anon ITT said, they did get a payout from the HoloSummer stage 1 fuckup.

>>70280075
Its her fault honestly. If she wanted to move on from GFE thats fine but she want WAY too hard on it. Turned alot of people against her, even her strongest schizos

https://twitter.com/kaga_oren/status/1763012007996125636
I have no idea who this is but it seems to be a vtuber and it's grim as fuck

>>70280075
There is ways to reduce your GFE but the way she went about it was straight up insulting

Gone.
Moving to Japan. They said they'll be back soon.

>>70279991
Moving to Japan (Real)

>>70280152
>>70280211
Yeah literally all she needed to do was end her GFE stuff silently, from behind the scenes.
But, as all women sometimes do, she had a woman moment and said "No, I NEED to make a big deal out of this."

>>70280087
yeah shipping seems fine. you can kinda get a feel for what it'll be from the size of the order.

>>70279991
Forgot to tag kek
>>70280212

>>70280152
>GFE thats fine but she want WAY too hard on it.
Wait, I thought that her shutting down GFE as a cover for not fulfilling year long Donathan goals were the main issue. gfe removal was the second issue

>>70280200
Kiara

>>70280233
At least she didn't shit on her fans like Finana, yet

>>70280305
Yeah thats probably way worse kek, thats just straight up scummy. People paid you for a service and you simply go "nah im not gonna do it"? Someone should sue her ass

Fauna doesn't deserve to be a Holo. She does not deserve to be called an idol. All she cares about is lining her pockets. She's a full on grifter. You have Bae working her ass off, actually doing 3D lives, actually releasing music, actually streaming, and then there's Fauna who's just a lazy cunt not doing anything. Whore hasn't streamed in 3 fucking days, streaming 12 times and we're on day 29; almost 3 full weeks of no streams. Absolutely pathetic and abhorrent behavior. She is not an idol, she is someone larping as one to get money off retards. The one who actually deserves support doesn't get nearly as much as the lazy cunt who can't even fucking show up. Genuinely wish Fauna would get terminated and unpersoned.

>>70280091

I really hope the whole palworld devs rrat is even partially true, because I don't trust Cover's dev teams at all

>>70280211
Insulting unicorns is the right thing to do.
RIP her money though best of luck to her, that's all she's got now

>>70280305
It depends on who you're asking, her main paying audience was there for her GFE, abruptly shutting that down in an insulting matter made them start to ask where the hell their money went

>>70280447
Are you going to watch her then?

>>70280485
Cmon you are asking way too much

hooooooooooo boy

>>70280305
They're not mutually exclusive. Seems like both are an issue.
The unfulfilled donathon goals is actually just bad.
While coming back from a long break and completely moving away from and removing all gfe content on your channel, isn't going to sit well with the audience you built making gfe content

>>70280516
you forgot the button slam picrel

Faumeikeks..

>>70280412

>>70280075
So you lose about 50% of your fans from betraying unicorns, it seems.

>>70280485
Probably not, she catered to pathetic unicorns and then she dropped them. That doesn't make me want to watch her on its own. Maybe she makes good content and I stop by, its a separate issue.

>>70280305
real gfe is just hanging out with her and talking with her like you would a normal gf
she went full whore and then stopped whoring

>>70280519
It's funny how many public moral crusaders starts to act vile against the GFE audience whenever a chuuba stop appealing to them and inadvertently insulting everyone else who does it or the chuuba herself when she was doing it.

Yagoo and the CFO & Head of Corporate planning (Yosuke Kaneko) answer questions.

TL:DR -
> 2 million fucking dollars in lost merch sales in Q3 due to delays in shipments.
> They are aware that it's a company issue with respect to shipping, due to an extreme increase in volume thanks to their expanding business.
> They presume it will be resolved by next year once their logistics division can catch up.
> Some investors know about the Nijisanji flaming, and ask whether they have solid structure in place for supporting overseas and interacting with overseas fans.
> They are aware that they're lacking in getting deals overseas compared to Japan, barring the SEA region and esports streamer collabs and a few corporate deals.
> They always downplayed profits from events due to the cost of setting them up, but recently thanks to a HUGE increase in online ticket sales, their profitability has unexpectedly grown (although they're still conservative about the budgeting for such events)
> Advent hinted to have caused a 13% growth this quarter in terms of streaming/content service.
> Hololive Fanclub service was terminated as they are pursuing some alternate service to replace it, TBA.
> Two events got them some extra income, one was the zAN Holosummer fiasco, the other one was apparently not being able to schedule a talent's appearance at an external TV program.
> Holofes tickets still in high demand despite increase of venue capacity increasing by 20-30%
> Rest of it is just clarifications for penny pinchers with zero idea about how the industry works.

How much growth did they get from homostar?

It's always nice to get confirmation that literally no one in EN gives a fuck about Fauna. They probably see her as a nuisance they have to be ok with as to not look unprofessional.

how does shipping affect when revenue is recorded. i sure as fuck was charged when i pushed the buy button.

>>70280799
They grew to having 10 homostarsen

>>70280516
I'm glad I didn't have to go through all that. I was sad to hear that I was missing out on a ghost loli doing sex asmr with her fans while I was waiting for Gura, but since I love Gura I decided to stay committed to her.

>>70280700
does not count fuck off!

>>70280305
We don't know why she did it, only that she lied about why she did it, claiming GFE fans were getting in the way of her CREATIVIDAD. Avoiding accumulated responsibility is one possibility.
I thought her unique style of comedy GFE *was* the CREATIVIDAD...and she still does the same shit as before, but now it owns the chudcels somehow. By them not watching it? That's the usual way that works.

>>70280879
There's a comparison right after that post if I'm not mistaken.

>>70280857
Kek, Flare would kill for a model that cute

>>70280737
And normal chuubas is out there and there is plenty of them but for some reason people like you screech and insult the ones who does things differently.

>>70280516
All of this would have been more fine without the groomer bros on twitter, that's the part that really sticks out as a deep, long knife in the back of her fans and also makes some of her statements about this whole thing sound insincere on her corpo account.
Oh well, nothing to do with me, sucks for them

>>70280305
It was about 50-50 imo.
Moving away from GFE and saying she got "burned out" on it just indicates that she was lying about all the times her members were told she loves them.
But removing the VODs just nails that on their head - she's simultaneously "proud" of it but also doesn't want to show it to new members.
Non-members were there for her other content and never watched the GFE shit, but they also didn't pay for anything.

What's with so many people refusing to do their Donothon goals?

So how much do you think you have actually spent on hololive? For me its about 220 bucks. Which includes one 2 year membership, 4 birthday and anniversary sc plus connect the world streaming tickets. Be honest, no lying.

Mumei remains the GFE Queen without even trying

>>70280831
I hope you day this when FauMei's orisong comes out.
I'll even call you out after MuBae have a song too, because God knows you don't give a rat's ass about Mumei, Bae, or Fauna.

I won't hold my breath. I live outside the regions supported by the holoshop and I wanted to buy Towa's CD single so I checked geekjack. They were going to charge me more than twice the cost of the cd for postage. I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get a tenso.

I guess he's a bit menhera. I've seen a lot of ads for his channel and he did a 3D showcase with singing and everything, so he seems very serious and has over a thousand videos on his channel. Also he apparently learned a lot of english since most of his viewers seem to be english speakers.

Anon, that isn't just for Advent, but the whole of Hololive Production, which also includes Regloss and whatever HOMOSHITSTAINS keep getting popped out. It may also include changes in streaming habits of the talents if they get more people watching them.

dunno, like 1.5 years worth of fauna membership and counting
been spending more on phase lately tho

What do anons think about KronBae?

>>70281316
I'll be honest I totally forgot they debuted a new gen after advent. They need to collab with the girls to get exposure

>>70280799
That's the beauty of it, they didn't mention any specific gen, just the "new VTuber debuts in Q2".
No one wants to say that the emperor doesn't have clothes.

>>70281024
500 USD. Not even regretting a single penny. I will never buy livestream tickets however, I will only buy physical merch and wear the drip to work. I will say their biggest issue is the sizing of the merch, they are made for japs small body frame, and Towa keep releasing apparels for women sizes so they end up collecting dust. Some EN merch is overpriced for shipping alone, but their merch are well made, I appreciate them.
They reinvest in livestream 3D concert so I practically get all my money back, and I get to shitpost about it on /vt/.

Life is good.

>>70281024
I don't know exactly. I could probably count it up easy enough, but I don't want to. My spending is mostly online tickets, a couple of memberships, a financially negligible amount of SCs and on very rare occasions I grab merch, All up I've probably made it to $2k at least.

>>70281024
I don't spend on supa.
More than 1000$ just for merch (Mostly plushie, nendoroid and pop up figure).
150$-200$ for membership on random holo.
50$ for Viv:id ticket and merch.
And if it's count, 100$ for beyblade after Ollie beyblade stream.

>>70281024
I dont want to even try and grasp how much I've spent on their merch/SC's alone

>>70282006

>>70281631
Anon then why are they still dumping their hard earned money into that doa game? It's a money pit

>>70281567
This gets timelooped to death, but I'm convinced that European shipping will never be good because the EU isn't actually a single market.
Kiara's always going on about
>I need a VAT number for this
>DHL wouldn't send my shit until I paid import duties to the Austrian tax office
Do you know the use tax laws for Montenegro, because I sure as fuck don't? Does France have import restrictions on plushies that Denmark doesn't? Etc etc. Euros need to stop bitching about shipping and start bitching to Brussels to make import duties and tariffs something controlled by the union and not the member states.
Cover needs to consider the legalities of shipping to Japan, Indonesia, Australia, Canada, and the United States. The few people purchasing from South America, India, Africa, and Asia will make do with Geekjack or a forwarding service anyway.

>>70281024

I have 10 memberships running for the shortest since advent longest 3 years. some I should probably drop though, recent purchases not including fest tickets (which I have only purchased stage 3 so far for my oshi and her girlfriend, probably will get stage 1 and honey works as well) only around 200 but I'm fucked if Miko has good birthday Merch in a couple days.

>>70281024
my total sum in holoshop only is around 630k yen

Reimu's numbers since the scandal are not looking promising.
I realize she's only done 2 streams but it's not looking good for her

The only time they mentioned the 13% figure in that document is in the Q&A section. It's a 13% QoQ, so they're referring to a comparison of Q3 over Q2 of the current fiscal year.

> How hard is it to set up warehouses (…) in other countries
Warehousing is trivial. I could personally set Cover with warehouses in North America and Europe based on existing contracts alone, near the main logistical hubs.
The current problem is not warehouses, it’s SHIPPING from Asia to North America and Europe
>Hormuz strait? Bogged down
>Panama Cabal? Bogged down
>Suez Canal? Bogged down down to Hormuz
Even before that, during the pandemics, pre pandemics, good luck finding space in a container or outbidding deeper pocketed companies for a full one.

It’s not warehouses, it REALLY costs that much go ship from Asia to the western world now.

Anons…. shipping is hard and it’s a volume business, and the whole merchandise business for Cover is geared to “made to order”.
If Cover would produce a million acrylics, hoodies and plushies in advance they could ship it using the regular lanes as you guys are suggesting but that’s not the vtuber business, they don’t carry inventory, everything you buy is made to order.

>>70283020
So Doki's floor is 9-10k, which places her 2nd in term of EN vtubing hierarchy

>>70283032
And have a roving pack of diverse Americans mob the truck and steal everything?

>>70283186
Do you have the numbers for Suisei's friend with u?

FAUMEI MERCH

>>70283053
Chink to NA is still costly ATM, the west coast is already running on all cylinders and any disruption (like what happened in Vancouver, leaftown) fucks shit up real bad for everyone else. I don't think people understand JUST HOW BAD global shipping is right now. There's a very real chance it all falls apart in the next year or two if things don't get sorted out ASAP, and people won't accept 'covid' as an excuse right now.

>>70281599
There are about 60k physical tickets this time compared to last times 18k or so.
So yeah it's a huge fucking increase.

>>70283264
shipping costs too high, pls understand. also worldwide means "USA and Indonesia only"

>>70283005
China free export is still the best.

You do realize this is nonSelen we're talking about
FPS spam is in the cards
Maybe she can sustain herself with new games, FOTM, and first-time collabs, but I doubt it

>Advent - July
>Promise - August
>Myth - September
The next gen will have to settle for either June or October at this rate

>>70283005
How does that solve the shipping problem?

>>70283380
Not that anon but shipping volumes are on the rise. Port capacity is insufficient with the way things currently are being done on current infrastructure. Solving the problem requires either streamlining procedures or more infrastructure

>>70283208
I don't Susei sold out and restocked I think? I remember someone posting the restock
Last update I remember for Suisei was ~22k sold but that was months ago

>>70283322
You are confused here, they are giving streaming rights of *Our bright parade* to theaters and b2, I haven't seen anything about Capture the moment simulcasts atleast.

>>70283265
Hope they get collab merch one day

>>70283464
Who the fuck "who" Yagoo?

>>70283409
Cover is in a partnership with the local companies, including b2 being the streaming platform in China.
They got their ducks lined up for that

This anon already laid the basic deets
>>70282989
Like, there's some shipping, that's locked in to longer term contracts with some bigger companies that have likely mitigated some of the costs, but those ships are already spoken for and don't usually have free capacity you can just pick up on the cheap.
It's more likely to get worse than better at the moment, and unless the US decides to throw caution to the wind and ramp up policing of the oceans again (highly unlikely), shipping is only going to get more expensive in the long run globally.

those are 4th fes restream retard

Fuck off retard

Oh, it’s the last year one? I thought they were arranging for this year to be broadcast. My bad

>>70283214
I love my oshi romantically and my oshi loves me romantically. I'm not so broken inside that I can't understand what it means to cherish a person romantically in unconventional ways, and I am not so spineless that I can't recognize the difference between what relationships are actually loving in a romantic sense and which are abuse, exploitative, and based in self-defacing illusions.
I love my oshi, and she loves me. Not platonically. Not in an imaginary sort of way. Not in as part of an act. Not in a tertiary sort of way exclusive to the stream. I am literally her significant other.
I am also every single poster in this thread. Especially the ones who disagree with this post. That's just me being a tsundere.

>>70283261
Myth went on sale 2 months before Promise, so they've been on sale twice as long.
With the Promise birthday marathon coming more of them will catch up

>>70283402
Anon, we are the ones who would have to pay if we brought that stuff back. It's more likely that the stuff gets shuffled off to SEA nations than China though, costs and whatnot. The big ticket items, things that are electronics, semiconductors, etc, those are already in the works in the states. Maybe some more of the cheaper stuff goes to Mexico, if they can ever get their druglord problem under control.

>>70283472
Capture the Moment is being simulcast in Korea but not the holohoney stage, only 1, 2 and 3. Same company for Towa, Pekora and Watame's sololives.

I may as well, I don't shitpost here ever so I'll use my good boy points just this once to vent my annoyancee
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>TL;DR: Pedantry for the sake of pedantry about the details of Pekoras superchat total, ignore this if you hate math and hololive history lessons
>>70278929
>Pekora, is the most SC vtuber in the world now
So I love Pekora but as somebody who lived through the events that heralded the end of her SC reading segment(I fucking miss my 'aripeko's to this day, man...), this is a prime example of being misled by incomplete data.
Let me demonstrate. I will use Playboards, which while buggy in terms of finer details, is good enough to demonstrate my overall point:
>Pekoras Lifetime SC: $2,859,141 (#3)
>Pekoras 2021 SC Total: $908,973 (#4)
>Pekoras 2022 SC Total: $477,769 (#10)
>Pekoras 2023 SC Total: $311,026 (#7)
Now, as I said, early 2021 is when Pekora, because of an issue with management that caused her to break down crying on stream, ended up pushing her to no longer do SC readings(in her breakdown, she even mentioned doing this for her fans sake, though I won't dig further into that event out of respect for her). And it's common knowledge that SC readings are a crucial means of incentivizing SCs.
So running some basic numbers
>(2021)$311,026+(2022)$477,769+(2023)$908,973=$1,697,768
For the sake of completeness, I will go ahead and grab her total revenue for the months of January and February 2024 as well, which are as follow:
>Pekoras 2024 Jan SC Total: $33,287
>Pekoras 2024 Feb SC Total: $7,153(*FROMsoft SC Debuff qualifier, for the sake of transparency)
>(2021-2023)$1,697,768+(Jan 2024)$33,287+(Feb 2024)$7,153=$1,738,208
Sorry for all the build up, but it was necessary in order to properly demonstrate my point. Let's now go back to Pekoras total SC earnings: $2,859,141
Now this bit is a little iffy, but to the best of my memory, Pekora unlocked monetization for her channel in September of 2019. Playboard shenaniganry means that while it doesn't have the play-by-play for her SC until the start of 2021 on the dot, it did still log the overall revenue earned. Which means we can figure out how much she earned in the 15 month period of time between her being monetized to the end of 2020 by subtracting the revenue after that point from the total revenue:
>(Lifetime)$2,859,141-(2021-Now)$1,738,208=$1,120,933
And so, we get the revenue total of pre-2021 period as
>(Sep 2019-Jan 2020)$1,120,933
So, what's the point of all of this? Clearly, $1,738,208 > $1,120,933. But the final piece of the puzzle is time.
As I said before, that $1,120,933 represents a 15-month period. An average of $74,728 a month.
Meanwhile, that $1,738,208 represents a 38-month period. An average of $45,742 a month.
And even that figure should bear in mind that the absolute brunt of the post 2021 income did include a period of time leading up to Pekoras clash with management, where she still did he superchat readings, as well as the phasing out period early on in the year. It was a somewhat front-loaded year.
This next bit is for anybody insightful enough to notice the oddity of her going up in rank from 2022 to 2023 despite making less money; there is a reason for that. First of all, it's of course important to note that 2023 was the first full year after Lamy dropped GFE cold turkey(she actually did so mid 2022, but because she still did it early on during that year, her front-loaded revenue carried her to to rank #3 of 2022 anyway, whereas her 2023 total had no such buffer). And then there is the more obvious fact that both Coco and Rushia were no longer present, and thus "freed up" the top slots they once had a lock on. There are other perturbations that existed, of course, but fundamentally, the shift in rank from 2022 to 2023 was less to do with the people at the top in 2023, and more to do with the lack of the people who were at the top in 2022.
Pekoras long, winding story from being one of the superchat queens to "merely" a high level contender is a long, complicated, and emotional story
But stories are meant to be remembered and passed on for their own sake
Never forget the day the bunny cried

jwu when did Bae become Indian?
