Here's my list of problems from last thread, feel free to add more.
A summary of OffKai 3 issues:
>Kirsche ban
>threatened to ban Pippa, failed because Fishman wanted all-or-nothing (OK2)
>>this would have happened again but the PC sponsorship stopped it
>gay orgies
https://thevirtualasylum.com/threads/pippaposting-v2.196/page-1182#post-407231
>many problems with fake badges--impersonators of clippers (Cooksie)
>no screening of volunteers, as you will learn with the number of "one of the volunteers" lines
>one of the volunteers tries to doxx all of the IRL-attending VTubers
>the con uses ConCat, which is run by a furry coder who got banned for running malware through game mods
>the big Phase event--which is how OffKai got most of its funding--was sabotaged by politically-minded volunteers
>the event in general was very poorly handled from a technological standpoint, even putting aside the deliberate actions against the PC event
>one of the volunteers claims that the bizarreness of the PC event was the company's decision
>turns out, that volunteer (Gustavo) supported the harassment campaign against Pikamee and has hated Pippa for years
>he played part of a separate, pre-recorded video that wasn't supposed to be shown publicly, then blamed PC for what was shown
>OffKai had to walk back his statement on Twitter
https://twitter.com/OffKaiExpo/status/1797028491537617355
>obligatory "one of the volunteers" >77131995
>this interference led to I think about half of PC segments being cut ("segments" being skits, also the live performance of songs)
>basically all PC talents vaguepost at the same time on Twitter as this is happening
>the monitors turned off when VTubers were actually doing performances
>delay on the hololive mini-concert because of "one of the volunteers"
>audio problems during the PC concerts (during the smoker's especially)
>someone listened in on Fishman at OffKai talking with some of management, the sabotage is real but not planned, just a spur-of-the-moment opportunistic event
>one of the volunteers has banded together a group of malcontents to "kick out the nazis" (Pippa) and so are harassing Capipis
>around 500~1000 people are in with fake badges
Also, TLM is doing a stream about it, so expect normies to complain. (Kirsche is _also_ going to be streaming about it soon, with receipts, so that'll be some nice extra news.)
>Internet was very spotty in the con (for attendees), and this caught up to a good number of the actual VTubers
>They had similar problems last year, but have apparently done little to fix them
>on Day 1 they decided that people needed a separate wristband for 18+ stuff--which of course was not announced beforehand
>worse, many of the later-night afterparties were 18+ (without being listed as such), so if you didn't pick up your wristband you couldn't go
>apparently many of the afterparties weren't authorized
>>a number had to get shut down by security
Feel free to add anything I missed. This was just scrolling through one general (sort-of PC-focused) thread, by the way, so I've probably missed a lot of smaller-scale technical problems which happened to individual VTubers (other than the well-known PC interference).

Is commiefornia the place where vtubers are the most popular? At this point why do anything in that state when some random Twitter retard can just come in and fuck things up because a liver said one thing they did not like..

>>77231365
From one of the threads linked in the previous threads, Day 1 was a disaster.
>>77073417
Day 2 went better but the big thing was the PC concert getting fucked.
Day 3 seems to be doing well now but there's little left to do.

It's quite interesting to me that the Gustavo guy hasn't privited his account despite so many out for blood; that's usually what they do in these situations.

Having said that he's also claimed to be asleep when this stream was happening.

>>77231365
holy fuck what a mess

>>77235770
I am not looking forward to the utter disaster this board will become if Sayu ever collabs with any ex-niji. It was bad enough when Matara simply unblocked her, even with the "well maybe she has her muted" (for whatever godforsaken reason) sister cope.

While I use X, mainly to find posts for /news/, you can only actually see it if you follow Matara, follow Sayu, and then look under "people following this account whom you also follow."
There's a whole thread in the 'log about it:

I always have to substitute Sayu's name with a description, but neglected heterochromia. I also love how it decided to have her riding a donkey, despite "donkey hoodie" being a single token. Works fine for "cat hoodie" /shrug.

They really should've hired more actual staff than rely this much on volunteers

>>77231365
Jesus Christ I've seen rrats on this board that were more dubiously plausible than this entire list, can't believe this is what's real while the rrats weren't.

>>77238826
All of these cons rely very heavily on local volunteers, as do the vendors in turn, and this one's non-profit. They simply aren't viable without them.

Having the con somewhere other than San Francisco might have saved them, but the organizers maybe natives, and California is kind of the place to be for anything anime. LA just had the all-time largest gay pride celebration in the world, so here's to hoping that AX doesn't have a similar plague.

>>77239689
Everything in the list is backed to publicly available statements--from attendees on Twitter, R-, 4chan, and TVA, and from direct statements such as Twitter, Discord, and Twitch screenshots.
I'm looking forward to what additional receipts Kirsche will bring to bear to-morrow.

>>one of the volunteers has banded together a group of malcontents to "kick out the nazis" (Pippa) and so are harassing Capipis
Ironically the only people who think they're nazis are catalogfags and them. Strange.
Almost like they're the ones posting bait threads every day

>>77241927
Every time anyone /here/ says that Pippa is so much as a conservative, someone from /pol/ will instantly jump in to correct them, claiming it's an act and she's a sellout/grifter, as I guess they feel rather betrayed, as she's moved more and more mainstream over the years.

Personally, I think she's undeniably a gun toting, Trump loving Republican, but more the live-and-let-live libertarian type that doesn't give much of a shit about the culture/race war end of things, and thus has a mixed bag. But, the fact that she's an open Trump fan, and friends with the Alex Jones of Vtubing that is Kirsche, is more than enough to set off most of the San Francisco otakus who are apt to volunteer for this sort of event.

>>77242608
>she's an open Trump fan
she is?

>>77243476
Do your reps... She makes up maybe 5% of my chuuba view time and even I've seen her sing his praises multiple times. Probably most often during her infamous "Pippa vs. AI Presidents" streams. Not that you'd expect anything less from a card carrying member of the NRA, even if she keeps having nightmares about desperately trying to use guns she's never seen before.

But yes, they are being assholes, as unlike Kirsche, she doesn't make politics her primary content. She did play Wizard Game though, and with these people maybe that'd be enough on its own.

>>77231185
>>77235343
I always have to replace her name with a descripter and neglected to include heterochromia. Could probably add some face skulpting as well. It's kind of intersting that she chose to have her riding the donkey, despite "donkey hoodie" being a single token, and her not usually have any trouble with "cat hoodie". /shrug

Neat.

>>77244188
Funnily enough, I watch her quite a bit, but I can't seem to remember anything about her when it comes to politics. Especially given my /news/-gathering I associate politics moreso with Kirsche and the dramatubers than with Pippa, mainly because I remember that she's shifted away from that content and forget that, you know, she was still plenty clipped back in the old days. And it's not like I didn't watch her in the old days, either; I guess I just hung around /pcg/ too much (not like I hung around there much anyway) to hear about her more controversial statements. My chuuba memory must be going funny; I haven't been able to watch streams for a (short) while because my earbuds are broken. I've seen the thumbnails for the AI president stuff, but I never watched them because I don't really like AI voice stuff. Why AI voice stuff only? I'm not really sure. I mean, for AI images, I was on /vtai/ in its earliest days and wrote many a quick-guide for getting the old nAI leak up and running--before any of this new-fashioned "LORA" nonsense the kids these days seem to be using. If I go onto /vtai/ now-a-days, I can request a loliwife Pippa with no trouble at all! Back in my day, you had to wrangle with the generator for so long you were lucky if you got one good image in a dozen--and that's not even mentioning the fact that my computer took 10 minutes to generate one image! And now, that was with the lighter, old nAI build, too, not any of this fancy stuff. It's really quite amazing how much technology can be improved in such a short span of time. Now, where was I... Ah, yes, the AI presidents/Pippa bit. While I've liked Pippa ever since I first saw her, (which is when she was playing "Holocure" when that game first released,--and what a time it was! It still seems to me amazing how much the game has been changing whenever I see flash before my eyes Kaela's update streams. It was so enheartening to see such a love-imbued fan-game be the FOTM for the Hololive girls, especially as I liked it and could play it. Playing games, too, was quite difficult; owing both to my means and my preferences, I generally only had older consoles, so ever since the Switch started to overtake the 3DS I never really had any console which could be considered "new." It was also difficult to get games on my computer--which reminds me, that awful game "Doom" or one of the new ones from that series wouldn't install, and I never got e-mail in response! I always knew I should've stuck with "Quake," it's such a shame seeing these new-types be engrossed with the latest trends. Let's see... yes, when Holocure first came out, it was so nice to be able to play the games which I saw other people playing. (That reminds me of when Selen played "Quake" on stream: I still have the tab pulled up on my phone. I wonder how she's doing recently... I've looked over the catalog, but her old thread doesn't seem to be there anymore, which is a shame; although I can't say I frequented it at all, or even watched her that much, I always admired her proactive spirit.) After watching a few of the Myth girls play it I searched around for others and found "Pippa" which I am pretty sure is when I first heard of her. I would say that, while more mature than her earliest state, she was still in her more open age, when she was not so afraid, as she is currently, of expressing her opinions and collaborating with others of her choice.) Ah, before the parentheses I was talking of the beginnings of my understanding of Pippa: which I do hold to have been a more open time than to-day. I do not quite think that she is a "grifter" or a "betrayer" (and by "betrayer" I mean like those who pull in viewers with one type of content and then eschew it--like that Yuko chick who I've seen a bit around. I do remember her being the "Gura killer," as they are called these days, when idolEN first debuted-although I was a little surprised that she leaned so much into ASMR, I never looked at her for that because it was all membership stuff. In fact, I didn't really stick around much with idol, for no reason in particular, I think, and what wonders that has done for me! Now it seems that they ride a ship on the sea of scandal, constantly rocked one way and another, hither and thither, with the oasis of new generations being but an illusion soon dashed with the vision of Yuko's bikini graduation.) idol aside, what was I thinking about, -of course, Pippa and grifts! I don't think she is a grifter, really, rather that her social anxiety has caused her to mutate within her surroundings: rather than acting bombastically now to drive up clout for a future reincarnation, she "digs in" and spreads out among other Phase Connect members and eschews her fast friends with whom she once joined--I can only they were no summer soldiers. Throughout all of this I have watched her much, but I cannot say that I followed her for politics, although I did enjoy that content. I remember fondly her mutual g

>>77230997
Among lighter humored Offkai3 news, they were vending a mixed drink called "Black Company". Random anon comments, "It's probably 2% alcohol."

riping with Kirsche over the politicization of old franchises: I don't think that she cares not for it anymore but rather that she wishes not to encumber her fellow-members of PC with the same-although I don't really think that as she has said so explicitly herself-which is another boon of her new mental configuration, in that she is more open in talking with her fans on such matters-although it is not as if she was not so in the past-and we did on occasion receive the benefit of the oh-too-vulnerable Pippa, like that one WoW stream-although as a fan of her I cannot honestly say that I would prefer her breaking down on stream-her experience with the Internet of VTubers-as-community has hardened her will against such depredations-she is stronger now. I can't really state a reason why I haven't seen her talking about Trump at all-although I feel as though I have avoided dramabait related to her-although I remember reading Twitter's "Pipkin Pippa is a Nazi for sure" thread and don't remember such a comment-does that thread perhaps pre-date the AI presidents bit? I have always struggled to remembered dates-relative or otherwise-when VTubers are involved. I suppose that's why I think myself rather green even though I've been watching VTubers since before holoEN was around--I never really thought of myself as "old" until I heard people who started their VTuber lives with watching holoEN or NijiEN talents thinking of themselves as "old." I know that's a problem about which jokes are routinely made /here/ (and even beyond this board), but it's strange feeling it happen to such as myself. Well, I hope I've not rambled on too much, even though I started typing this out as soon as I saw your message, I have work to-morrow morning, so I shouldn't tarry too much longer.

>>77246136
no way, niji needs permission from ex-organs to use their own ip, they said so themselves and they wouldn't just go and lie

>>77230827
I've been out of the loop for a while, but like, phase funded all of the vendors tables, then proceeded to get their stream screwed up or something? What happened?

>>77247145
Theres no proof that Nijisanji is the ones selling those.

>>77247191
No, especially if that pic is from Offkai, but we know Nijisanji was selling Selen merch for a time, post termination, and *accidentally* attempted to sell some recently, along with Zaion's, due to an online store malfunction that also spilled some fan's addresses.

>>77247145
As a matter of new policy - they never said it was a legal issue (cuz it ain't). There's also the possibility the problem was with current livers rather than ex-livers. On the other hand, we know the artist that made the Nina and Mysta frames submitted his work and NDA to Niji about six months prior, so it's not as if they didn't know it was coming.

But this is all old news.

>>77247850
>selling selen merch for a time post termination
do you have proof of that

>>77247958
I'm not going to bother searching the Nijisanji tweets that were made immediately after her termination because you've memory holed them or something. Suffice to say, she gave contractually obligated permission to sell those before the termination, and they had no legal reason to ask again. It was just really bad optics at the time.

>>77248191
I dont pay attention to nijisanji and /news/ has made it possible to see things now. I memory holed nothing. If you dont have proof dont post it as if its truth.

They announced new merch just 15 hours after the termination, and continued to sell Selen merch until it sold out. Beyond that, do your own research.

>>77246982
chatGPT summary:
I've watched her quite a bit, but I don't remember much about her political content. I associate politics more with Kirsche and the dramatubers because Pippa has shifted away from that content. Even though she was plenty clipped back in the day, I forget that part. I guess I just spent too much time on /pcg/ (not that I was there often) to hear about her more controversial statements. My chuuba memory must be off; I haven't watched streams for a while because my earbuds are broken.

I've seen thumbnails for the AI president stuff but didn't watch because I don't like AI voice content. I was active on /vtai/ in its early days, writing quick guides for the old nAI leak before the newer "LORA" technology. It's amazing how technology has improved. Back then, generating a good image was a challenge and took forever on my old computer.

I've liked Pippa since I first saw her playing "Holocure" when it first released. It was heartening to see such a love-filled fan game become popular with the Hololive girls. I mostly had older consoles and struggled to get new games on my computer. I never managed to install a new "Doom" game and never got a response to my email about it.

When "Holocure" came out, it was great to play the same games others were playing. I remember watching Selen play "Quake" on stream and admired her proactive spirit. I discovered Pippa through the Myth girls and appreciated her openness back then.

I don't think Pippa is a "grifter" or a "betrayer." Her social anxiety seems to have made her adapt to her surroundings, sticking more with Phase Connect members. Despite watching her a lot, I didn't follow her for political content, even though I enjoyed it.

>>77248612
That's not Selen merch, that's just merch for other people. Where is the proof they were selling Selen merch?

>>77246982
Anon are you good bro? Holy fuck. I always thought this site had a character limit.

>>77248784
NTA, but from the termination notice:
>We will GRADUALLY halt the sale of merchandise and voice-related content.
Which is exactly what they did. There's no way to prove it, since there's no wayback machine for store fronts, but there's certainly no shortage of people on twitter moaning about it at the time.

>>77249567
>>77248784
Ah I love the smell of nijiseethe in the morning

And now you understand why shitting on nijiniggers is a moral duty

>>77249976
Oh so she got paid for it? Well if she got paid for it then they didn't do anything legally wrong, just morally. Also there is no confirmation that this is new stock instead of old stock, because if it's old stock then its whatever store (that is still not affiliated with nijisanji) trying to recoup the loss of purchasing the stock from wherever they got it.

>>77249567
If you think an Akiba store is keeping Selen merch in stock for five months, I've got news for you.

That said, it's probably bootleg. While I'm sure Niji was selling Selen merch for a bit after her termination, that shit is long gone, and I'm sure they aren't ordering more. They probably aren't making a dime on this lot.

>>77250032
For moral reasons, yes
For unicorn reasons, no.

>>77252912
Looking at endra's response, "people lie on the internet" Seth is telling MSM internally that the screenshot is 100% fake. MSM talents want to sorely believe this, but if more comes out to verify it's authenticity it'll put the talent in a bind where they accept the owner of MSM is a self admitted sociopath and is more than likely responsible for all the manipulation he's accused of and still be willing to work with him, or they have to get as far away from him as possible so his bad PR doesn't rub off on them.

I'm feeling lazy and don't feel like tagging. Regarding pippolitcs. Pippa has always been kind of basic bitch slightly lolbert. The lefties hate her because anyone that doesn't follow their dogma explicitly is far right. She attracted the /pol/tards because she is "based" but it's more that she didn't shy away from deep internet lore that is "offensive" and being anti-government. They call her a grifter because she has always been a slightly left of center lolbert and that's been consistent even though she doesn't really ever talk politics. I don't recall her ever being in favor of trump in a serious way, but just laughing at Biden being a disaster. But everything is politics and people like reading tea leaves.

Kirsche also isn't as political as people say. (I'm not saying she doesn't get into politics, just that the amount is overstated) like is she talking about DEI stuff because of political reasons or because it's a common thread ruining games and other things she cares about, and if they stopped ruining shit she'd probably go back to talking about weird sex shit.

Victoria is purposefully antagonizing management now in the hopes that they terminate her so she can get out of her contract without paying the termination fee.

>>77259916
Cute, but the termination fees are the same regardless of which side terminates the contract. Plus, if she was that clever, she'd realize they can't collect, and just leave - though I suppose she'd still be out 2-3 months due to all the payment delays.

For those who have been complaining of dramatubers bashing Yuko Yurei's fans with bias and incomplete stories, it might be worth noting that the /k/groomers being involved Yuko Yurei's graduation is finally beginning to leak its way into the dramatuber reports, with at least one dramatuber doing a bit of a deep dive on it. I won't name her, as she's still a dramatuber, but she and others seem to be basing their reports on this fairly neutral novel of a Reddit post:

Stock Month anon, turns out today marks 2 months of me doing these kinda things. What the fuck.
Anyway, closing report time.

ANYCOLOR FACES NEGLIGIBLE LOSSES
Anycolor sees some recovery from their lunch price, but still faces a small loss at they end the first day at 2155 yen (-9). Not a good sign as we are now in the last full week before the report. 7 market days remain for them to gain as much as ground as they can.

COVER BACK IN THE RED.
Cover's triumphant growth on Friday doesn't translate into a trend as the stock faces a small loss as they close out at 1704 yen (-22). It did manage to recover before they could incur more losses and drop out of the 1700 range however. It seems we have some people selling at it's high for now, as the amount of institutional short selling continues to swell

OTHER:
Nikkei had a damn good day today, a 1.13% rise.
Trading Volumes are the following
Anycolor: 406k
Cover Corp: 12 million
The gap between the two is now 451 yen.
Nothing interesting on both boards, Anycolor board is a ghost town.
Though, someone did coin the 1700 area of Cover's stock as the Ohtani Zone, referring to Ohtani's number on the Dodgers.

>>77258371
Lol
Lmao

>>77266264
And here's Cover!

Anyway, that's all for now. Can't believe I've done this for 2+ months now dating back to >>72801622. Didn't even go by the various names until a few days later.
Don't know how much longer I'll be doing these, the Q4 report and it's aftermath might be this segment's grand finale and we'll just do weekly updates from then on. Regardless, It's been and still is fun. So I'll see you all tomorrow.

The Nazi-to-femboy pipeline is a very real phenomenon. Far-right movements often emphasize strict gender roles and contain high amounts of toxic masculinity, which you'd think would prevent this sort of thing but actually encourages it. In their eyes, if you don't meet the far-right ideal of a "man", then you might as well be a woman, so why not start dressing and acting like one?

False said on stream recently there is going to be another video dropping in the near future, he just put it on the backburner to get the recent nijisanji video out. He drops a few nuggets, such as Mythic talent is fully aware of what MSM has pulled to their own talents and also said that MSM offered things such as equity in the company as incentives to either join or stay. There's a good chance these parties with 'incentive' are the ones who constantly keep trying to damage control what Seth has done both /here/ and on twitter.

As an attendee, I'll only talk about what I experienced:

- The internet was better this year than last year. Not perfect, still, but still better than last year.
- Same with most tech issues: better, but sadly not perfect.
- As an example, the main concert on Saturday was "only" delayed by 20 minutes, compared to last year's 3 hours.
- The V4Mirai x Idol concert had an unfortunate tech issue in the center during an Idol EternalS song; thankfully, all of Idol Encore, as well as Chrystalis (Abi & Serina), and Kou Mariya saved the day by riffing back-stage while things were fixed. I hope people got video of it.
- There were many delays with M&G, and some of the autograph machines broke down for a time. However, some of it may have been on the vtubers' side of things.
- In the main room, there was no issue with the monitors, unless you really want to fuss about the side monitors turning on like 1 second after the main, center monitor, and being slightly darker.
- 18+ panels always require ID verification, that's why they're 18+. The wristbands were a way to have the ID verification happen outside of the line directly into the 18+ panels, and it was like 20 feet away from those panels.
- The four parties I went to were 21+ due to alcohol, and so the official Offkai 18+ wristband didn't matter. People should have gotten carded on the way into those parties. Some of the parties even had their own wristbands just so people didn't have to get carded multiple times.

If you have questions I can try to answer, though I can't guarantee I'll be quick about it.

>>77273476
>>77270857
Within board rules, can someone give me context? Who is twisty and why does this matter?

>>77303645
just curious: have you met Sayu there?

>>77307257

Nope, I didn't find Sayu despite seeing the photo of her with silver hair.

I'm mostly a panels & M&G guy. I did meet with a few vtubers and members of the community, though.

>>77303645
>- The V4Mirai x Idol concert had an unfortunate tech issue in the center during an Idol EternalS song; thankfully, all of Idol Encore, as well as Chrystalis (Abi & Serina), and Kou Mariya saved the day by riffing back-stage while things were fixed. I hope people got video of it.

Asked Watch Anon here, I wanted to ask if there any interest in a FAQ/rundown regarding Anycolor Q4? I know everyone (including myself) are eagerly waiting, but I've been thinking that it'd be better if we were to temper our expectations (in /news/ atleast) and have more be more knowledgeable on the subject.

If anyone wants that just reply with questions or things you believe should be mentioned. I'll likely write something regardless but I'd rather have everyone have their questions answered.

>>77309460
That definitely sounds good, steak grab anon. I was planning on writing up at least somewhat of a report on the Q4 when it dropped if no one else claimed it. I might do a holo/niji Q4 comparison or a Y/Y retrospective looking at their respective quarterly reports from the past year, though, for some extra statistics.

>>77309639
The comparisons sounds like a great idea. You got my endorsement, I'll be too busy with stock changes and the report itself so having other angles covered helps. If you want a 2nd opinion you can "just fucking ask."

>>77309460
I suspect we're all in for a major disappointment. In addition to having pulled out all the stops, and having lied as easily as they breathed in the last report, I'm sure that if anything too traumatic happens, Riku will merely call on the help of his billionaire buddies.

I've always been curious as by what percentage each of the companies is below their IPO though. Wondering just how much cash people who have been in on this game from the beginning are out.

>>77303645
So my question is people at venue on /pcg/ said that the Dissapareance of Tenma and Pippa concert was cut even for people present because of said 20 min delay, the show already started with them and cut the intro were the others talents would search for them.
Another rrat is that in some part of the main show is that some screen would just blackout in this specific event compared to other technical issues. Do you think it's sabotage or pure negligence?0N0X

>>77309460
I'd like to know what it would take for Anycolor to be delisted from the TSE, as well as how low their stock would need to go to be catastrophic to the company (i.e. result in imminent bankruptcy).

>>77311563
Delist would not result in bankruptcy but would literally cut investments out, meaning the entire operation would become self-sustaining and that will force them to cut ALL loose ends ( probably NijiEN too ).
It would definitely go down the 2000 mark and stay there for a good while, or crashing a lot again, probably under 1500. They are undoubtely at a shitty situation as they are under lifeline measures.

>>77311747
Yeah but I mean what the requirements for delistment are

>>77312207
A very good response, particularly in the vtubing world.
>>77312497
Supposedly a small indie has a model design that's just a slightly altered design to Shylily.

>>77312642
>a small indie
I thought's what was meant, it's a testament to the strength of the communication that she doesn't hint at that at all. I'm surprised (1) that it got so big and (2) that so many people both (a) were mad about it on Twitter and (b) bothered her and manager about it. They couldn't take the hint that her silence _was_ the answer, could they? Well, I guess if they watch VTubers on Twitch I can't exactly expect too much intelligence.
>>77312581
The Q4 report should be out around the 12th JP time.

>>77312418
Shylily is somehow VERY business savvy while not having a jaded feel. Very milquetoast on top of being a twitch vtuber, though. I attribute it to her original push giving her popularity while avoiding the soul drain of groomers and crabs.

>>77312497
See >>77312642, one of the original factors of Shylily's growth was Veibae dissing her as a cheap copy. Enter married TBD vtweeter trying to manufacture her own version of that drama to incline, but Shylily refused to bite.
>married
She slipped up, one of her tweets addressing she was calm after the fanbase of Shylily attacked her was this.
https://twitter.com/SmolLolaVT/status/1796917021256380689
>jokes aside i love my husband hes keeping me sane rn idk where i would be without his support<3
Also, her account is private now after a myriad of other vtubers started clowning on her.

Some shit's going on with Mori

>>77313354
The tweet and the community post make me think it's some post-surgery related thing.

>>77313075
I do remember that--I was surprised to see how composed she was even amidst the harassment she received at that time. I always thought her rather business-savvy for that in addition to the way in which she comports herself and the sort of content she produces. She's worked her way up from a lucky chance "fight" with Veibae into a very successful VTuber in her own right. It's rather funny now to see someone choosing to be the victim to Shylily in the same way that Shylily was attacked in the past.

>>77313411
Her reaction was really strong, so it's either complications (literal R.I.P.) or Cover shutting her down after some sex offender tried to doxx her.

>>77311747
Sounds similar to Corsair when they went public.

>>77313469
>a lucky chance
>a
Try several, it's why I said it was just one of the factors.
>new model, which was a MASSIVE improvement to her custom self-made vroid ones
>the veibae thing, which got her some of her oilers
>tiktok boom, which petered out but got eyes on her in those months
>getting noticed by a very-big-for-her-then clipper, though it's said she hired him
>subathon
All of these jumpstarted her entire career.

>>77313841
Well, I still think the Veibae was the lucky chance, and the rest the result of her work. The new model gave her a tiny extra blip of popularity, enough for Veibae to notice and give a snide remark (or several, she has a bad habit of that). The whole Veibae debacle was her lucky break. With her new-found popularity, which was much more than she "just" got with her new model, she might have been relevant for some time, but not forever. However, she was able to take advantage of the situation. I don't take medicine, so I don't know about the Tic Tacs, but I definitely heard about the Cooksie situation. (Which was funny considering I know a guy named Cooksey, I always get a good chuckle when I hear the name. Same for Kson--although I don't remember how his name is spelled.) The immediate push into a subathon--which of course gave her more clips and more reach--was a great move, and that's when she really started to get picked up.

To do this, they have to file a lawsuit in Japan, win (based only on the evidence they submitted), then come to America and ask a U.S. court to force X Corp. to turn over the user data, which it has to do.
The reason for this is because such a lawsuit could not be filed in the U.S., because the poster, the liver, and the company are Japanese (so there's no reason to file in the U.S.), and also because such a lawsuit would fail if filed in the U.S. However, by filing in a country with less freedom of speech, like Japan, and winning in court, U.S. courts are required to take reasonable steps to enforce court orders from foreign countries. In addition, U.S. constitutional protections (like free speech) do not apply to non-citizens, and so won't be recognized in U.S. courts as a defense for companies (like X) which don't want to turn over the information.

>ANYCOLOR Inc. (hereinafter "ANYCOLOR") has initiated legal action in relation to the following posts made against ANYCOLOR-affiliated livers, mainly "Kaida Haru", who is a member of NIJISANJI.
>(1) So-called "trolling" in which one repeatedly posts numerous comments in a short period of time in order to disrupt live-streaming service on YouTube.
>(2) "Tag trolling" on SNS service "X" involving the posting of grotesque images on hashtags relating to ANYCOLOR or ANYCOLOR livers, including "Kaida Haru", and by attaching to images or videos the livers' visuals without permission.
>(3) Threats of harm directed at people intending to participate who perform in ANYCOLOR-sponsored live events.
>Having filed a lawsuit demanding the disclosure of information relative to the owner of the respective accounts which were engaging in the aforementioned activities, and the information being revealed unto is, it was discovered that the various accounts were all run by the same individual (the "Subject").
>ANYCOLOR believes that each of the above activites have interefered with the activities as livers of many of ANYCOLOR's affiliated livers, especially "Kaida Haru", and in addition, that the above activities have caused great discomfort to fans of NIJISANJI and contributed to a general sense of concern and inconvenience amongst fans.
>Thus, ANYCOLOR has determined that each of the above actions by the Subject constitutes an extremely vicious act, and has filed a lawsuit for damages against the person in question.
>In addition to pursuing damages in a civil action, in order to enact criminal punishment against the Subject, ANYCOLOR filed a report with the appropriate police station for the crime of obstruction of business, which report was accepted.
>We look forward to cooperating with the competent authorities and are determined to see out criminal charges.
>In addition to this case, there are a number of additional legal proceedings, both in Japan and abroad, regarding libelous and defamatory acts against ANYCOLOR's members.
>We will continue to take firm action against such libelous and defamatory actions in cooperation with stakeholders so as to ensure that our livers can perform their activities with peace of mind and so that our fans can whole-heartedly enjoy our content.
>Finally, please refrain from contacting ANYCOLOR or our livers (including through communication via SNS, comments during live streams, &c.), as we will not respond to any inquiries relative to this matter.

>>77323116
It specifically says X and accuses them of "hashtag vandalism"

>>77323205
Well, Hawaii is part of the U.S., so U.S. constitutional protections would still apply. However, without further knowledge, U.S. courts will assume that people posting (1) in Japanese (2) on Japanese Web-sites (3) about a Japanese man (4) working for a Japanese company (5) in Japan ... is Japanese, and not American.
>>77323116
The "target person" ("Subject") phrasing seemed a little odd to me, but it's probably standard Japanese corpo-speak.
>would allow them to skip the middleman
They could always willingly turn over the information, although that probably violates X's own ToS. If X refused to turn the information over, though, it would have to go through the process I outlined above.

>>77324308
Slander is a criminal violation in Japan. AnyColor has to initially press charges and get a judge to agree to serve, but I don't think they actually have to win a case to do so. It also probably not AnyColor that's going to coming knocking on Twitter's door, but the Japanese government, and Twitter probably already has a policy of caving to them on request.

>>77324643
They have to get a judge to agree to serve in the first place, which in cases like this is not guranteed, especially since the bar for criminal cases is much higher than civil cases

>>77325381
AnyColor is a multi-billion dollar company and has been doing this long enough and often enough that I'm sure they have a judge that will rubber stamp them by now. There's a reason the Japanese are terrified of even leaving bad reviews online.

>>77324643
>I don't think they actually have to win a case
I don’t know the exact standard in Japan, but it’s probably not much more than a default judgment in the U.S. The judge looks at your evidence and legal arguments. If, without any opposing evidence, some jury (again, in Japan) would vote for you, then you win. They then take this “win” to America and “cash out” by getting the doxx from Twitter.
>but the Japanese government
This actually isn’t true, at least formally. (Twitter might have agreements with some countries, but I doubt it.) I remember one case out of South Korea where a guy was trying to go after his haters and filed suit in U.S. court to get the information. What he didn’t realize, though, is that in U.S. courts (unlike in South Korea) case information is public, so he doxxed himself to everybody when he was trying to doxx a few people to himself. Again, South Korea vs. Japan, but if there isn’t an agreement with South Korea I doubt that there’s one with Japan.

Anycolor's stock is on the rise, as it has now risen to 2216 yen (61) for it's lunch price. It did however had a drop around 40 minutes before lunch, where it was as high as 2259 yen (104) instead. Regardless it's still a good day, they just need to not fall anymore.

COVER SOARS
Cover is also on a ride, they've now risen significantly and now rest at 1801 yen (97) for lunch. They're facing a similar trajectory to their competition but Cover is seeing better gains. Many eyes are on them however, as they're the 2nd most visited stock on the Yahoo JP boards.

OTHER:
NIKKEI is having a below average day, they're looking at a LOSS of 0.45%

That's all for now, see you in a few hours. I do not look forward to see how many messages are in the Cover board.

Reminder that AnyColor has lost open-and-shut defamation cases where the judge threw out the defendant's core argument of "Your Honor, it was kayfabe" as complete horsewash.

>>77333807
Isn't this the only thing Team YT says on twitter? I can't remember any case of them being helpful.

>>77339192
they sometimes reverse it if you're big enough and there's enough drama
hex is a literal who to them so womp womp

>>77339009
Well, it's one thing to summon someone to court, quite another to win... But yes, the prosecution losing a defamation case in Japan is certainly a spectacular fail. Probably caused the victim to spend some money on a lawyer though, and possibly bail. Not sure exactly how that works in Japan.

>>77339253
The company backing him is still a big customer with connections, so I'm kinda surprised. Given this, and how long Rosemi's 3D was downed due to copyright, maybe their connections aren't all that good.

I've mixed feelings on striking people over ASMR though. Not that he doesn't have karma coming to him, but usually, ASMR isn't a problem, even if a child is exposed to it - just making weird noises into the mic. I suppose this might be an exception, where he graphically described the action, but I'm not going to hunt down a clandestine archive and listen to it to find out.

>>77339689
completely disregarding the moral perspective on it, he clearly violated YT ToS on sexual content, like they said.
you don't have to hunt it down, see >>77335764 or what it's replying to for the vid.

hex has other sexual ASMR still up on his channel though, which may be their automated systems sucking. or maybe it's from before they revised the TOS (when did they do that?)

>>77339689
They likely lost a lot of points with Youtube staff after attempting to issue DMCA strikes against False and Khyo a while back. Doesn't help that both of those guys are considered larger than most of NijiEN at this point.

>>77339814
Someone call me a idiot if I'm wrong, but he got a strike for this right? If that's the case, what are the odds that he gets strikes for his other ASMR vids if they take a closer look?

>>77340091
Yes he got a Community Guidelines strike, so he can't stream for a week. Apparently they expire after 90 days, so he has to fuck up 2 more times in 3 months to get perma'd.

>what are the odds that he gets strikes for his other ASMR vids if they take a closer look?
I guess he could if they were reported and struck. They seem to be made even after the various ASMR policy changes, and some of the YT updates apply retroactively anyway. So there's a chance he could earn two more strikes, I guess?

Here's the round-up for today.

>OffKai Expo suffers a host of issues, most of which are attributed to poor tech quality and poor volunteer screening. Many of the mishaps are seemingly rooted in a conflict between various volunteers and their dislike of certain vtubers, leading to accusations of sabotage against the event staff. However, readers are advised to scrutinize these accusations due to the foggy nature of information in the scenario. It should also be noted that virtually all participants suffered some degree of technical issue during the event, and the tech issues were an improvement over last year's tech issues.

ASMR's been getting random content strikes for a while. You'd have to go ask the general for details, but at the very least binghayu of luvdia quit streaming it on youtube (iirc she got striked, but that's vague memory of MTL). It's just gamba with yt and twitch. Sometimes they get away with it, sometimes they don't (kittyflute...). It's in the platform's interest if no one knows where the line is. Just because there are people getting away with murder doesn't really mean anything (including his past videos). They're just high rolling (until they're not).

>>77340091
Kinda depends if someone at Youtube has made him a target or not. MXR Plays, for instance, which has a history that proves someone there has it out for them, got two strikes for two videos that had they had deleted three months before. Deleted less than an hour after upload at that, as they were testing the monetization. ...and they aren't allowed to appeal those strikes because they are deleted videos. They triple vet everything because they are used to that sort of harassment, unlike Hex.

If someone at Youtube really wants to end him, he's pretty much doomed.

>>77340662
Interesting. Do you know if mass reports on videos have any effect? (For legal reasons, I am not encouraging this, it is merely a hypothetical question.)

>>77340781
That I don't know. I doubt MXR got mass reports, as they are pretty innocuous - just a couple with a reaction channel with some well received incidental connections to the vtuber community. I wouldn't be surprised if Nijisanji's Black Stream got mass false reports though, and it still seems to survive.

>>77341518
I'm afraid it's become more cult than company, where what were once probably good people have been brainwashed into believing acts of insanity and evil are good and just, provided they are committed by the right people. GURRAT and accusations of harassment by talents, both past and present (>>77340987), kinda means anything that comes out of the company is poisoned, regardless of which talent is involved or how benign the act in question may be on the surface. No one's been removed, and there's no evidence of change, so I suspect that'll remain the case until the branch crumbles, sadly.

Salad toss anon here, pool's closed and 8 days left.

ANYCOLOR ATTAINS ABUNDANCE
Anycolor's stock stay rather neutral from it's lunch prices as it closes out today at 2220 yen (65). While they tried to get back to the level they were at slightly before lunch, it didn't matter as they slowly dwindled back down. Still, They're now back in the 2200s after 5 days and are looking at a 56 yen gain for the week so far.

COVER COLLECTS CASH
Cover doesn't let yesterday stop them as they continue their climb as they now rest at 1796 yen (92). They also saw a similar trajectory today but unfortunately they don't break out of the Ohtani Zone. They're currently looking at a rallying 70 yen gain so far this week.

TRADING ON THE RISE
Interestingly, trading volumes have spiked hard this week. While we did see bumps on Friday likely due to the Dodgers Collab, Cover's trading volume today is the 2nd highest since their Q4 report. This only being beaten by the day after the report dropped. Furthermore, Anycolor was a part of the rising tide of trade volume. The last time they saw levels like this was on the 14th of May.
With that being said, here are today's volumes.
Anycolor: 709k
Cover Corp: 19.7 Million

OTHER NEWS
The NIKKEI saw a loss of 0.22%
The gap between the two is now 424 yen.
The lawsuit in Japan has been brought up on the Anycolor board, no idea of it's effect.
Cover forum hasn't been that interesting, still talks of the Dodgers/Ohtani collab and commenting on the meteoric rise. Got plenty of funny images to bump with though, and someone was spamming stonk memes.

Also a reminder that I'm gathering questions for a write up on what to expect for the Q4 Financial Report/Meeting (Referring to >>77309460 here.) If you have any questions regarding it I'll try and include them.

But that's all for now, I'll see you all tomorrow hopefully.

Isn't this sarcasm? Considering her previous comments about feeling hurt about how much negativity there is about Niji online I'm pretty sure it is.

And if that is the case then any sympathy I might have had for her is completely gone. What a fucking bitch to make light of what past organs have talked about within the company. She deserves everything she gets.

That's not necessarily the case--it's hard to tell when she actually signed up for it vs. when she debuted. I can't tell from various anons' reports about it whether she's serious, and I'm not watching a NijiEN stream, so there's no way for me to know.

Can't fully confirm this, but it sounds like the NBA collaboration is overexaggerated and it's instead trough Rakuten, the ones with NBA rights in Japan/China.
Can't fully confirm any of this due to EU/JP site access problem, so I'll make it a rrat instread of a news. If true however, NBA is 100% unaware of the collab and that would explain a lot.
