A message from Nijisanji EN
Either that or Hitomi Chris
Or the Kizuna Ai nonsense

>>70585317
Rushia being literally everything people feared from a GFE

>>70585317
I don't remember her name but there was that one Chinese BiliBili streamer that did a skit with a png of black hentai person, called him "Nii-chan" (short for Nigger-chan) and then put into his hand basket png and sent him to pick up some cotton.

It was year ago and kinda went nowhere because Twitter screechers could do nothing against 100% chinese streamer but still it was baffling to see their meltdown.

>>70585317
A single word caused an entire corporate branch to shut down, and an entire country to anti one vtuber.

>>70585317
The Rushia event

>>70585351
kizuna ai one is pretty damning and bizzare to me yes
imagine actually thinking it's a good idea replacing the person behind the vtuber because hey all people care are the vtuber png right
throw away the status as trailblazer, just because you're too greedy to think straight

>>70585317
>no im not talking about any recent yabs
Nijisanji's recent fuckups have been so bizarre that they can't be excluded. Their reactions were THAT cartoonishly evil.

>>70585351
>>70585361
>>70585423
>>70585433
these are all recent, come on read the OP.

>>70585317
Pekora bought a FUCKING MONKEY

>>70585421
I completely forgot about that one. Man, china is so fucking weird. I'm so glad all the good vtubers are out of there.

>expose that you pirate porn during a broadcast featuring some of the top of nijiJP
>investors contemplate making nippleman seppuku to restore honor
>meanwhile the pornstar JAV he pirated is rubbing up on him in replies
>maimoto nearly has a heart attack due to almost losing baseball collab perms

>>70585545
In (very retarded and non-functional) defense of UPD8, Kizuna AI was first commercial vtuber project that got this kind of traction and company looked at her as just another anime with different form of distribution. They completely missed that moment when vtubing became less about scripted, pre-recorded and heavily edited videos and more about live streaming and interaction with viewers.
It makes sense when you think about it as company not catching up to ever changing trends.

>>70585704
how was he found out again? something about the jav codes?

Oh right, there was that time some vtubers tried to play splatoon but they used a green screen effect with porn on it. They had to make sure there was never enough of it on screen in order to not get banned.

>>70585317
mel

>>70585421
So NTR roleplay is okay but this isn't? Clearly the joke she was going for was that she was pretending to RP NTR(Nii-chan can be interpreted as "brother") up until the last minute where she gave him a cotton basket.

>>70585317
Gamerbu or whatever, where the company thought they could replace the people behind the vtuber models

>>70585317
Rushia
Kizuna Ai

>>70585317
Kizuna Ai's and Gamebu's yab was so bad, it had a chilling effect in the industry and it's still being followed until now and will never be changed in the forseeable future.

>>70585727
Yes, elite level coomers recongized it before he could even blink in Live2D, then made tweets which triggered delicate Japanese sensibilities. I forgot to add that Nijisanji went to court with the fucking JAV distributor company and licked their boots until they agreed to settle.

>>70585744
oh yeah that one was hilarious, if i recall it even last for a long while to get trending.

>>70585777
>>70585797
its funny to think about it now, that the higher ups thought the voice didnt matter at all except for the character itself.

>>70585744
That one was funny kek. Nintendo coming for their ass afterward tho

>>70585631
>these are all recent
(With the exception of "A message from Nijisanji EN")
Anon...

>>70585757
No, no, no... you don't get it.
She explained that "Nii-chan" is literally short for "Nigger-chan" and sent him to pick some cotton. Sure it had NTR spin, but also blatant shitting on black people... which makes sense if you consider that it's China. Chinese bugmen really consider racism as best punchline for every joke, even more than your typical /pol/ user here. There's a reason why they employ white people in TV to act like retards and be shit on publicly.

>>70585798
And somehow he still streaming to this day, even have better ccv than other talent in his wave lol

Oh yeah wasn't there that fc2 tuber who gets railed and streams the audio? She got knocked up on stream and posted it to twitter and the internet had a field day with it

>>70585317
I would have said something about pekora buying a fucking monkey but it isnt as funny if its not the first post

>>70585317
Taiwan, Holocaust, Mizuryu Kei outburst, Chris, Aloe, Mel stalker, Rushia, Ameggedon, lean, Kronii back pedaling, half of tempus pruned

>>70586057
It was retarded but not from her.
Some ABSOLUTE MORON, FUCKING BRAINDEAD CREATURE, WASTE OF OXYGEN posted one of her typical ASMR as "VTUBER HAVING SEX ON STREAM!" on pornhub and people not knowing better just decided to go with it.

>>70586057
it wasn't even on fc2, but on freaking Youtube! she wasn't even getting railed on stream, just roleplaying, but ever since those spics made it viral with a clickabait "NTR vtuber" headline, it just stuck on her, kinda like how everyone still believes that the original Kizuna Ai got fired and is being skinwalked by new seiyuus.

>>70586123
>Kronii back pedaling

sounds omoshiroi, backpedaling about what?

>>70586149
I miss her... I remember that she was supposed to get a 3D model but graduated pretty much week before that. Emoechi Pro pushed harder into real life porn after that so my own schizo headcanon is that she was not willing to whore herself in front of camera.

>>70586149
>>70586259
Damn, how has she been handling it? Hope she's okay.

>>70585631
>these are all recent
Hitomi Chris: 2018
Kizuna Ai: 2019
Taiwan: 2020
Rushia: 2022

It is currently 2024.

>>70586149
Ah yeah this is a different one I think. iirc the one I'm thinking of was a tanuki who streamed on fc2.

>>70585928
>Chinese bugmen really consider racism as best punchline for every joke
Based

>>70586362
Oh, that I don't know about.
But I remember case of some small JP vtubers that were wife and husband irl and were quite open about it and streamed on Fantia or something their attempts to make a baby... they actually succeed and last time I checked kid was born healthy. Quite weird but in wholesome way.

The Secret GC.

Not even just that it happened but 'who' made it happen. It wasn't a small corpo chuuba that did this and coordinated it for funsies, hell it wasn't even a full indie chuuba with a few friends doing this to get notoriety or even some (you)s. It was from one of the fucking Big Corpos that did this, that thought it was a good idea. Not even getting into the domino effect that one stream even caused that can still be felt today.

If that doesn't work then just simply the creation of this board. I still can't believe this place exists.

>>70586560
It would probably help if you indicated whatever the fuck "GC" means so the rest of your post could have any context whatsoever.

>>70586643
GC = group chat, they're talking about the fucking shitshow that was Millie's attempt at "dunking on the haters on 4chan" where she and several other EN organs went into a private group chat with weird usernames and larped as if they were anons /here/. Stupidest shit I've ever seen.

>>70585317
.live downfall
Jealous woman decide to nuke a company and got exposed as a bitch in the end. They're probably bigger than hololive now if that shit never happen.

>>70586926
Oh, that. Just say "the niji 4chan rp"

>>70586926
NijiEN being full of retards is nothing new and desu periodically is giving us such dumb shit. "Big yabs" from them feel like every other week right now.

>>70586345
Kizuna Ai and Taiwan are the only things there i can recognize as damning because of their effects in the industry as a whole. no one knows about Hitomi Chris unless you're a vtubing oldfag and Rushia was more of an isolated case that can be compared to a celebrity scandal since it never really destroyed the GFE/parasocialism concept.

>>70587040
It's like the Trump effect where the "yabs" are so constant people got desensitized to it completely when for anyone else it'd be a DEFCON 1 nuclear yab.

By that analogy, the fact that the Selen fiasco had such a huge effect it's the equivalent of finding out Trump raped and murdered a woman with video proof.

>>70585317
Hitomi Chris is pretty much up there. It happened extremely long ago, implied HORRIBLE things about the industry, was never mentioned again by anyone, and we hardly have anything left from that affair.
The only way we ever have a conclusion to that affair is if one of the girls who was around at that time explains what the fuck even happened, but for now we just have an old archive of Chris mentioning Fubuki's name, which feels really weird when you watch it and realize that they were genmates.

>>70585928
No, you don't get it.
The skit started with her cuddling up to and introducing "Nii-chan" to her viewers and using a few NTR keywords.
It was only halfway through this skit thay she suddenly gave him a cotton basket out of nowhere and told him to start picking cotton.
The joke is that she pivoted an NTR RP into something completely different.
The important question is, are you autistic, retarded or trolling?

>>70585317
Debuting regloss instead of jp7 was pretty bizarre
That whole horizontal project where talents didnt even get paid was bizarre
Firing mel was bizarre
Making coco antis in chat into mods was bizarre as fuck
Making marine and miko apologize for the doujin prank was bizarre
Not banning wheelbarrows was bizarre
Debuting more and more holostars when they dont see any popularity and dont bring money is bizarre
Cover management is bizarre

>>70585317

>>70586057
>>70586149
>>70586259
Funny that people remember this and not the one who live streamed sex with her husband (also a vtuber), confirmed pregnant not long after and that the baby was from that stream, and was safely born just the other day

>>70590618
Seems like >>70586559 remembered.
Tbh very wholesome story, I'm happy for them.

>>70590730
>>70586559
That's not wholesome. Fuck you, bitches.

Gamebu remains the most significant yab in vtubing history. Hololive China and Tama are the only things remotely close to competing.

>>70590906
It's wholesome as fuck, and I'd fuck you too, sister.

>>70591266
Shut your whore mouth.

>>70586123
still can't believe we lost all that dick pleasing mizuryu kei senchou art for nothing

Holo-caust, it was Selen tier

>>70585317
Risu giving a direct shoutout to this board on twitter was probably the earliest sign of /our/ nonzero influence on the VTubing scene. Another not necessarily damning but still up there in the WHAT factor moment was when HFZ was in it's heyday and multiple Holos discovered it.

>>70586560
> If that doesn't work then just simply the creation of this board. I still can't believe this place exists.
/mlp/ exists still, anything that breaks containment too hard is forever relegated to its own sphere of existence. we shit up /a/ and /jp/ too much

>>70585882
That case was worse than Ai.
Because Ai was more about making more versions of her.
But that case was people being fired and replaced.

>>70586560
I agree with this. Everyone loses. Corpo loses credibility, livers' reputation tanks, fans are outraged, Niji critics are baffled. No one wins except antis and dramafags

>>70592033
Yup, Holo-caust was really fucking scary. Overnight it became possibility that Hololive may just stop existing at all. Also it permanently changed how corporate vtubers interact with game studios.

>>70585928
The current top fantasy novel has the setup
>Not china is human
>Not ME are goblins, to be warred
>Not Europe are ultrajew zombies/wights that have to be exterminated and cause trouble to everyone
>Africa is beast people that aren't bright and have to be saved from euros
>Native Americans are humans too, enslaved by not Europe, MC exterminates all euros in not Peru and makes the surviving natives part of the not Chinese empire so they can prosper again

>>70585317
some Hololive-specific things that were not brought up in this thread yet
>The mysterious firing of Tsukishita Kaoru, one of the Holostars. To this day nobody knows why he's terminated. The most prominent rrat is that he used his avatar name when entering a real life beyblade tournament, which only raised more questions.
>Pekomiko. From best friends to strangers. the only clue we have is a throwaway answer from miko that sounds like she's beating around the bush, everything else is rrats.
>That one time Botan's screen randomly glitched for a split second and loud noises played out and was never explained or referenced again.
I think there was a clip of the last one but I couldn't find it. It was one of the most "Glitch in the Matrix" moments of Hololive.

>>70585317
Holocaust was the worst imo

>>70585421
Fuck I remember this.
I don't even know where I saw it but I must have it saved somewhere

>>70585317
The Holo-caust or the VODcalypse as redditards know it

>>70585928
anon, asians in general dont grasp the whole racism thing or at the very least, its not really their concern. asians are too busy hating other asians to worry about black people or any problems with discrimination that americans are so stuck about.

>>70586149
i miss meiro so damn much, only one of the few lewd asmrs that actually did something to me. im glad she had a great graduation.

>>70590906
a vtuber who becomes a mother and takes care of her children is based as fuck.

>>70590116
now this is fucking bizarre, not to mention madame web also got into an interview from lui the other week. WHY CANT THEY INTERVIEW GOOD MOVIES.

>>70593363
Same bro, her stuff was fucking hot.
I remember months ago somewhere here posted her PL Twitter but desu it was mostly just "teehee I'll be back soon" for months, with only one fanart of her new character.

>>70592118
just 3 holos, Haachama, Aki and Roboco. also its not just Risu, Moona as well.

>>70592312
think that was one of the fastest downfall ive ever witnessed in a vtuber context. everything was just fucking gone, and everyone was freaking out. entire playthroughs and videos just disappeared. it was fucking scary, i legitimately thought the "vtuber bubble" was gonna pop right then and there. but then, the real savior stepped up. people might think he's a fast food game dev, but his games almost single handedly saved hololive. and now hololive owes him by having the holomems play his new games.

>0 results.
Really!?

No one remembers that time a company doxxed its own talents, where more recently it was revealed they forced a talent to stop taking her psychiatric medication, and she just barely failed to solve suduko, ending up partially paralyzed for life?

About the only thing I can think of that's worse than the current Selen drama, though I wouldn't be surprised if they doxxed her at this point. I suppose the only reason they don't is they know she can doxx back.

AkikoAir hiring underage talent was also impressive, among other things going on over there.

/insert that comic of Riku with the noose v. Wactor egged on by AkikoAir.

>>70585317
Comma stapling her pussy.

>>70585317
There was that time Neuro-sama was banned for holocaust denial.

Doesn't seem like a huge deal, but it is stealthily historic for how it affected policies around AI content.

>>70594220
AkiOnAir hiring underage talents is nothingburger, considering that other large and popular company did it, too.
AkiOnAir being open about her age (private info, so it was basically doxxing) and their CEO turning out to be a creep and a loser and entire company rightfully abandoning him was the real yab there.

>>70585317
Chole thought she was being haunted by ghosts back in summer 2022. Shit's getting so weird that even to this day I still don't know if it's really ghosts or she's just being menhera

>>70594945
Wactor was a fair sized Vtuber company in the Spanish speaking sphere. They doxed several of their talents as they left the company, including addresses and tax IDs, back in 22/23.

Four talents recently all released public statements condemning WACTOR for various acts of misconduct as they fled the company, including "forcing them to conduct non-contractual activities under threat of termination or legal action", "a poor environment consisting of fear and high pressure", "abuse of power and sexual harassment", "compulsion to express false opinions, and instructions prohibiting the use of legally prescribed psychiatric medication" (ending in the aforementioned paralyzing attempt).

There were also rumors about a CO doing hanky panky with their top talent, and it was revealed that their standard contract made you criminally liable if broken, to the tune of 500 million yen.

>>70595771
>Wactor was a fair sized Vtuber company
WACTOR is still around, they rebranded to "910inc". I do not know if any of their current talents are active though - most just went silent, not officially graduated or terminated.

>>70594220
Small exploitative companies with shit practices unfortunately are dime a dozen in any industry. People can easily dismiss those as "rare exceptions" rather than indicatives of larger systemic issues at play: Wactor's burning was just a prelude to NijiEN's fuckup with Selen, which is what was the most damning thing here because of the amount of exposure. Unfortunately, heinousness alone doesn't matter much without it being accompanied by visibility.

>>70591266
NTA but streaming your sexual actives don't seem wholesome to me, even less the conception of your child. Unless I'm misunderstanding and they were only mentioning updates and shit then yeah that would be wholesome.

>>70596242
It's wholesome because it's a married couple having sex for the purpose of procreation, and not some whore getting fucked by a random guy

>>70596242

it's actually OBS glitching out somehow and all of the stuffs in it played all at the same time. but still makes good creepypasta.
another similar story was during a collab watchers were hearing a strange noise on Suisei's stream and everyone in thw collab got spooked when pointed out because they don't hear it. another one that's likely legit paranormal activity were the strange voices in Chloe's stream which made her leave her house for a while.

it was Redjuice's style. the problem is his style actually doesn't translate well to Live2D. didn't help that she was rigged by Rariemon, who has a rep of being the 2nd worst rigger next to rhombus.

With Haachama it gave us an HFZ promo on a Hololive stream, which is still nuts.

>>70600293
Haachama really likes that promo so much, she even made it a part of her stream background, and even made a rap out of it during HoloX's debut.

Unicorns

>>70599073
That paranormal shit with Chloe is legitimately scary. Had it happened with a menhera like Rushia I'd have called it bullshit, but Chloe? She ain't that much of a menhera and wouldn't really gain anything from making this haunted rrat up

>>70600343
A Hololive's horror series? I thought we already have that, holoERROR or something

>>70600811
Part of the trade of being a "paranormal investigator" is knowing how to sell the illusion of paranormal activity with the tools you have at your disposal, including your demeanor, the same as being a clairvoyant, magician, or a con artist, funnily enough. Some people are just that good at pretending they aren't in on something.

>>70600343
we need more creepypastas, wasnt there some anon who kept pushing for that one holoEN vtuber that debuted but doesnt actually exist?

>>70600115
Gura has multiple successful channels throughout multiple eras of YouTube
She'd eclipse Doki by a considerable margin

>>70585882
This really was the dumbest descion in all of vtubing. Kizuna ai was absolutely fucking massive and they completely destroyed her potential in one fell swoop.

Glad some people in this thread still remember Gamebu although it's a shame the infamous video is not up anymore as it was a good piece of PR gore.

>>70599523
And they got eviscerated in public opinion didn't they?

>>70601146
I have it.

>>70602062
they did, and now the company has zero talents because everyone fucked off.

>>70585317
Sony killed soon-to-be #1 vtuber and never recovered since then.

>>70601437
i think one of the reasons why it was a controversy in the first place because they made the actor behind Kizuna Ai anonymous in the first place. if they introduced her as "Kizuna Ai (CV: Nozomi Kasuga)", vtubers would be treated the same as an anime character and fans would have eased in better with the transition should the seiyuu decide to retire. would vtubing be better if things work that way? maybe.

SyrI my beloved

>>70585797
I can't remember the name of the agency, I think it was based in Singapore or somewhere near there.
But their biggest talent graduated and they announced that they would be recasting the character, which the previous talent had agreed to and tried to calm her fanbase down about it when they got predictably upset.
This was maybe a year ago.

Oh, and there's that one WACTOR guy who bounced before debut, so the company repurposed the avatar for a new talent later. This happened just a little while ago.

>>70585421
funny thing about that clip is that no one found her channel and no one knows what she's doing nowadays.

Remember Oga's NKODICE controversy?
NKODICE, a Unity based game based on a dice game from the late 1800s, was the flavor of the month game but Cover wouldn't let them play because of the words on it so he made his own game in RPG maker that was more or less the same dice concept but reimagined as a fighting game.
The dev completely sperged out, accusing him of ripping him off and denying vtubers permissions to play it. He eventually settled down, said it was okay to make fans games of his game and then had yet another sperg out after he read comments defending Oga's game as better than his only to continue a cycle of apologizing and sperging out several more times.

I'm to lazy to look for the clip, but there's one vtuber that either ripped out her fingernails on stream, or she's very good at voice acting screaming in suffering

Chris was in some weird emotionally abusive sugar daddy relationship with some dude. She made him finance her vtubing activities in exchange for sex but she ultimately never put out. He wanted to put an end to the relationship once he realized he was only being used as a piggy bank, but Chris threatened to go to the police if the money stopped coming. The dude eventually came clean after Chris had debuted. Cover got wind of it and promptly fired her.

>>70585317
These 4 are the big ones
>Kizuna Ai disaster
>Holo-Caust
>The HoloCN mess
>NijisanjiEN implosion
Out of all of these I think HoloCN was easily the most bizarre one to happen mostly because of how well things turned out for Cover after something on that level happened. If any other company had a bunch of soulless chink antis trying their best to destroy a company and then someone on the inside rallying them up. Now Coco is seen as a hero in Taiwan kek

>>70585317
holoen was a mistake

>never really destroyed the GFE/parasocialism concept.
Maybe to braindead retards. Look at that girl from ghost girl from Jew Corp, look at whatever Kyoresu called herself, Jesus the walking nuclear yab that will result of Riifu's whorpo.
It always ends badly, with the cucked fans fleeing to someone else that before long cucks them and goes out in some stupid drama.

Can I get a QRD on Holo-caust?

>>70585317
The great holo copyright content purge of 2020.
This changed everything. All talents going forward had to get copyright perms explicitly, which killed the possibility of playing tons of different games. Even if a game was 'almost certainly ok' for perms it was now a no-go. Copyright law existed before, but the purge really got people to pay attention to it and change the entire approach to gameplay.
This all being said, copyright law as it is now is bullshit, and I'm convinced copyright law has set back humanity dozens if not hundreds of years in achievements.

Introducing male EN livers.

>>70618691
Cover back then tried to sell themselves as an "associate" of individual talents instead of a company (basically the same mental gymnastics as vshojo today) in order to avoid some legal stuff including asking for permissions.
One day the seething nijinogs (yes, the console wars predate the EN front) had the idea to report one of Mio's streams to Capcom. She was streaming Ghost Trick, a DS game that needs an emulator to play.
Capcom copyright striked Mio's channel twice. If they did it for the third time, her channel will be completely erased by youtube, the worst case scenario for any talent.
In response, Cover panicked and mass privated every hololive stream. Mio was suspended for a month. Additionally Subaru's manager fucked up and deleted her old videos instead. From then on they had to ask permission for every game they want to stream.
Some of the older members like Akirose and Choco had an inactive Subchannel. Those are made in response to the mass privating back then.

>our fans and Nijisanji fans are harassing her let's not make a stand and let her know we want her back
>when kusodad went full retard and she asks to graduate don't let any of her genmates try to reach out (she admitted she is easily swayed and if someone would have told her to not graduate she wouldn't have)
>jumps off a building
>Cover takes her harrassers to court and let's her keep a $30,000 Soundbooth
>1 month later Cover botches the Taiwan yab
>cover Sweeps her under the rug and tries to pretend she never existed
>Gen 5 abides since they lost a friend and are just in a shifty spot


Though Aloe is one of those interesting examples where her yab probably prevented a much larger yab down the road. Because even if she stayed the damage was done what we do know.

>wasn't eating due to stress
>developed ulcers from the stress and poor diet which would cause a hiatus
>isn't really even to stream until November so she lost debuts momentum and probably missed her birthday
>Her mom's Kidneys began to fail in February right after
>heaven have mercy if Kuso Dad and the Final Showdown happened while she was in Hololive
>worst of all she is an APEX and Valorant player

I think Cover fucked up and were dodging bullets like fucking Neo. But at the same time if she stayed everyone would be asking why she didn't just graduate.

Also she would have never got her menhera harem.

This is how I feel when it comes to the Rushia case, there's a crazy universe where she doesn't break NDA after they release that statement that was meant to damage control and they are stuck with their biggest GFE and top earner being a known fraud with a big ticking timebomb drama lurking in the background.

nobody made it yet so i'm gonna ruin your day

Amelia Watson getting tired of her fans being goslings and telling the teamates to improve themselves. They essentially said "Ok, fuck it." And improved themselves by not watching her anymore, her numbers halved almost overnight. It's either that or the early Minecraft stream where they called each other by their irl given names out of spite.

>>70622226
That's it. I wonder why I never heard about anything after the Elaine thing

>They rewrote a cool stealth mission scene into a brute force, murder-everyone-in-your-path assault by this tiny girl with a knife.
That's entirely hearsay and completely unsubstantiated. At most we just know this guy was potentially some kind of "producer" for Chris, funded her vtubing, and when she debuted, leaked all her info, making cover corp fire her to wash their hands of it all. Everything else is rumor and bullshit at best

>There's a reason why they employ white people in TV to act like retards and be shit on publicly.
Reminds me of that japanese tv show where there's a smart white guy and three retarded black guys.

Wasn't there a hollow who got terminated within a month after her debut?

In 2021 two vtubers got married and three months later the wife discovered that the husband had been messaging the vtweeter. She was furious, so her husband asked the vtweeter to meet up with them to explain the situation. They met up, went to the couple's house, things escalated and the wife stabbed her. Apparently the husband also strangled her with a rope. They then dumped the body in a shed on a mountain. They were arrested a few days after the body was found. If you want to find out more about it, you can search "vtuber 殺害 女子高生".

Terminated within 4 days from debut for unclear reason. The rrats claimed weird shit like he was doxxing the niji girls or even molested one of them, but nobody knows for sure

>>70632704
Theres tons of rumors going around, about boyfriends, literal tsundere and the artists being dicks.
But the most logical explanation, and the official explanation, is simpyl that they couldnt find any talents that fit the roles they had set for the designs.
