Are those peg formations a reference to the concert seating arrangements or am I seeing things?

Sir this is /news/, you can continue your usual HoloNiji fight but at least make it slower or otherwise the thread's going to die too early

ill do whatever thefuck i want nijinigger noone cares if thread hit bump limit just make another

Thanks for admitting you're deliberately shitting up the general.

I'm sorry you're not getting your safe space here nijinig
Oh wait I'm not lol NIJISEETHE

Another slow news day

>>80869809
desu why dont just turn this general into fast thread like hlg or # instead of deliberately keeping it slow just for the sake of it

>>80870096
Yeah, I'm definitely a nijifag. That's why as OP I included pics referencing Niji on both the OC anchor and the kuro anchor. Go shit up some other thread you fucking drama monkey.
>>80870600
Because only a few are willing to collect up the various news stories into a round-up, if the thread went as fast as /hlg/ or /#/ many news items would be lost because there'd be about 10 threads worth before any anon tried to collate all the info.

>>80870600
Then they should've made it fast last night when the thread's dying. Were they asleep already and only woke up just now?

>>80870600
Because that would be shitty and the thread would be unusable. All the fast threads in this board are unsuable schizo den

>>80878019
this isnt news, and if you really hated nijifags you would stop talking about them and they would fade into obscurity and die off.

>>80878181

Navia Watch anon here. We're doing a short lunch report for today, I need to consume the gachaslop update that just finished maintenance.

ANYCOLOR REBOUNDS
Anycolor stock rebounds after a abysmal performance yesterday, as the stock heads up to 2598 yen (88) for their lunch break price. They have the potential to go even higher based on their performance before the break, so we'll have to wait and see if they'll stay where they are.

COVER HITS A HOME RUN
Cover is once again breaking the atmosphere in it's rise. The stock is climbing into a new region at 2225 yen (131) for their lunch break price. They also could go higher based on their performance from before the break.

OTHER
The NIKKEI is experiencing some ups and downs, but head to lunch at 0.14%

That's all for this lunch report. I must now go pull Navia, I'll see you in a few hours.

>Previous reporting intentionally avoided the news of Hasunosora Girl's High School Idol Club, as it was not apparent they were actually vtubers rather than an idol group that happened to have virtual models sometimes. After evaluation, the story has been added.

The article talks about various topics such as the handlings of a VTuber character copyrights if a corpo member wishes to graduate from their company and keep their characters, problems between indie VTubers and illustrators, things to check for VTubers when they're joining a corpo, the state of VRChat after they recently laid off 30% of their employees, and the gap between VTuber scene and VR scene, mentioning Filian as a rare example of someone that thrives on both

Navia's Hat anon here It's July 17th over in Japan, and the market is now closed.

ANYCOLOR ON A ROLLER COASTER
Anycolor stocks slid today after lunch, as the stock instead settle down to 2564 yen (54) for the closing price. While this is still a gain, what could've been a rebound into a 22 yen gain for week now sits at a 12 yen loss for the week currently. Perhaps some investors are getting out once again?

COVER BUCKLES UNDER THE WEIGHT
Cover takes the full blast of the slide however, as they shave of two thirds of their gains, heading home with 2137 yen (43) for our closing price. This turns a rather impressive turn around for their week into just a small 2 yen loss overall for the week. At the very least, Cover has now demonstrated that they can hit the 2200 mark. Now they need to stay there.

OTHER
The NIKKEI's gains collapse right after lunch as they're hit with a 0.43% loss for the day. a potential factor in Anycolor and Cover's performance comparing the graphs after lunch.
Trading Volumes:
Anycolor: 549k
Cover: 11.1 Million
Local idiot in Cover thread think's Cover might lose a additional 1000 yen based off the last 6 months. Gets shamed.

>>80894322
is that that battle royale agency?

>>80894705
yes. it seems like the BR might finally be kicking in. gen 2 debuts are soon (starting the 21st) and their viewerbase in AniLive isn't growing so they will be competing for viewers.

Pardun?

>>80896792
online streaming for those who still want to watch it but haven't bought the tickets previously, sorry if I wasn't clear

>>80894038
depends on the restreamer, they usually publish the vods afterwards as highlights

>>80896844
So... They are not streaming it online for those who paid for the tickets?

>>80896639
>streamed for free to those who bought the ticket
I wonder how they intend to pull that. Maybe the tickets have a code or something? Send an unlisted Youtube URL via the ticket's contact e-mail? I doubt they are going to set up their own streaming service for it.

>>80896928
here is the translation:
<Mini live video>
We plan to issue a serial code that will allow people who have purchased tickets to this performance to watch it for free.
We are also considering selling tickets online so that those who have not purchased tickets for this performance can also watch.

no, thankfully. they have some sort of quota they must fulfill at the beginning to escape anilive exclusivity, but even afterwards, their salary is based on anilive coins they get, and they also take a cut from donos you give outside the app.

Harry originally wanted 100 for Wave 1, but it got nerfed down to 27. Wave 2 is more or less people who were late to Wave 1. He wants 1000 overall, but the agency is clearly not doing as well as he expected financially so I'm not sure he will ever obtain his pie in the sky goal. Wave 3 does seem to be in the works though, and Wave 4 is being recruited, so he'll die trying I guess. The talents will just cannibalize themselves over viewers.

Basically the Vtuber pays the agency of their service instead of being a notEmployee. Make sense to me, this is not uncommon for youtubers actially.

whatever happened to business model of just scouting existing vtubers and incorporates them into the agency instead of needing to start anew everytime they quit?

Faux Pas anon here, let's do a quick lunch report!

ANYCOLOR DROWNING IN A PUDDLE
Anycolor stocks have mostly struggled today, as the stock heads to lunch at 2571 yen (-6). They have peaked into the green, so it's not completely hopeless however.

COVER DROWNS IN A POND
Cover is facing a hangover after they're gains yesterday, as the stock stumbles down to 2105 yen (-32) for lunch. It seems atleast for now, that they aren't returning to 2200 for today.

OTHER
The NIKKEI continued it's crash from yesterday, as it heads to lunch at a staggering 1.99% loss. A likely culprit for the stocks performance today.

>Due to needing to update the template anyway (as part of the efforts regarding the roundup archive), might change the Hololive header to HoloPro. Honestly considering keeping it as Hololive for the meme at this point. Looking for genuine feedback on this subject.

Genuine feedback, I think due to recent events, it would be better to do Cover or HoloPro, I would even say to lean towards Cover since /news/ has been including Cover as a whole, such as shareholder meetings and Holo Indie. Overall, news of all kind from Cover and we are at a point that most newbies would know that Cover equals HoloPro. I would consider the same for AnyColor but that's up to you.

>>80958843
Keep it so that one (or several) anon keeps seething, which means free bumps.

>>80959805
Free bumps? I like coming to this thread for news, not for seeing people fight, during the recent holostar situation I honestly didn't even see the point in checking updates because it was just dumb stuff.

>>80959805
Considering we're likely to cause seethe just by doing the job of reporting the news, if it's possible to reduce incidental schizos, it might be worth consideration.

>>80958843
do whatever it takes to make the thread slower and have less dramafags

>>80958843
Cover is probably a better title than HoloPro but I also don't care if you keep it Hololive to make retards seethe

>>80960502
If you want seething, you can easily see it if you go to catalog at random times, it's not necessary here as >>80960706 said I don't like seeing unnecessary drama here. Smol Ame anon said he wants genuine feedback and I think there is reasonable takes here as to why the change instead of schizos being schizos.

ANYCOLOR MAKES BANK
Anycolor gains have gone through the roof today, as the stock closes in at a mighty 2580 yen (3) to close out the night. They now see a 4 yen gain for the week overall so far. However, their trading volume continues to dwindle as today locks that at below 500k.

Days until the Shareholder's meeting: 12

COVER SWAN DIVES
Cover gets sucker punched down hard today, as they head home at 2079 yen (-58) to close us out. They're now looking at a disappointing 60 yen loss for the week as we head to Friday. However considering the status of the NIKKEI, they might've been a victim of it's performance.

OTHER
The NIKKEI can not recover as it heads home at a 2.36% loss today.
Trading Volume:
Anycolor: 421k
Cover: 4.58 Million

Thirding or fourthing "Cover", as it seems to cover it. It's less letters and in common use, unlike "Holopro" which I've never seen anyone use /here/, and really only saves one character.

For sake of consistency, switch Nijisanji to Anycolor, while you're at it.

The unicorn attacks haven't been as bad as they once were, but no real reason to antagonize, other than the lulz, which are already abundant everywhere.

Also note that this speedruns is not to clear the game but to get somewhere in the game or complete a specific condition.

I've never been so sure, is NEXAS like Anycolor's VTA? Or is it just that they get a manager and an internal wiki with some tips?

>>80840211

>>80968079
nexas is some weird off brand mass production vtuber meatgrinder.

>>80971849
NEXAS, according to Harry, is meant to be a learning program of sorts where they give you a model and a platform, and you're meant to either grow beyond with their guidance or ditch vtubing entirely.
Apparently there ARE actual "classes" that go over normal streamer stuff like running OBS or twitter engagement or coming up with a brand that can be easily google'd, but I don't know how extensive those classes are because there's conflicting accounts of them, and most of the sources have complications that makes it difficult to take them entirely at face value.

>>80971849
It was advertised as such with a highly competitive environment designed to filter down a thousand vtubers to a roster of a final corpo that doesn't exist yet. That's why it's been called a battle royale. I know they did hire Filian to give a "lecture" around debut but I don't know what kind of support they have given since.

>>80973459

Kanade Kanon and And Uge are from 774 Inc., Kasukabe Tsukushi is an indie (with the voice being called Tsumugi instead), and Ci-chan is an indie previously from the BOOGEY VOXX duo.

Randonnite anon here, quick lunch review since I've gotta head out for dinner.

ANYCOLOR LOOKS DOWN
Anycolor's stock heads to lunch at a loss at 2546 yen (-34) for today. Unfortunately they seem to be on a downward trend based on the last few minutes but they've been more akin to a rollercoaster, so who knows.

COVER AGAINST THE EDGE
Cover is skimming below the line today as they head to lunch at 2075 yen (-4). It seem's to be stable for the most part, but outside factors like the NIKKEI can throw a wrench.

OTHER
The NIKKEI is now below 40k as we head to lunch, as well a 0.42% loss so far.

Here's the round-up for today.

HoloPro
>Sora will release her single, "Okaerinasai", on 9/11.
>Nintendo JP sponsors HoloJP to do a speedrunning challenge stream in the newly-released 7/20.
>Suisei releases a new cover of "SHANTI".

Nijisanji
>NijiJP celebrates Cat & Dog day, but fails to include Kuroi Shiba, NijiJP's dog vTuber.

Other Corpos
>Popona, an official SEGA vTuber, will hold a Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble tournament on 7/27.
>Ren Kisaragi of VSPO will appear as a guest commentator of EVO 2024.

Other
>Yamaha announces a public release of VX-β, an AI voicebank fueled by various vtubers.
>BitSummitDrift opens.

Corrections
>Previous reporting mistakenly wrote Reina Sun's name as "Rena Sun".

Notes from the Desk:
>We'll go with these headers for the time being. In case you're wondering why HoloPro and not Cover (which is fewer letters), "AnyColor" and "Cover" are too similar for speedereading, and I did not want to change one header to the company name, and not the other. Autism is a hell of a drug.

>>81028503
Let's not oversell what Yagoo did here. He didn't wish him well, he only thanked him for his achievements and work inside Holostars, there is a difference here. He is handling it respectfully though and not suing but this should be how every termination should go.
But really, it just highlights for males, there is really no real difference going Holostars or Nijisanji on a practical career standpoint. Cover is only exceptional with their female talents and nothing else. You might as well flip a coin if you want to be a male Vtuber. HoloStars has the better company resources and conditions to make you succeed but it's a bigger uphill battle and you can get terminated or graduated at higher rates than would be considered normal in the male Vtubing space. Nijisanji, the company is more black by default and resources are low but the male Vtuber base to watch you is bigger and the record for male terminations is as good if not better than Holostars JP but graduation is more likely though if you fail though.

>>81027226
>lack of self control

>>81029080
No thanks to the cabal. And the misdeeds of Raito. This termination is a double whammy: unicorns ululating on the catalog streets and sisters seeing a chink in the Cover armor.

>>81029080
Honestly I think Holostars just needs a headliner talent to help lift the tide. Akin to Pippa for example, but considering who they hired in the latest wave I guess ticking bombs are in season.

Cover isn't perfect despite what the majority of the board tries to convince themselves. It is what it is. And I would say going two terminations with Mel's in January at the beginning of this year is actually unusual for the company that prides itself on being the #1.
At the very least, Holostars screwed up and hired a person like him who was liable to break some internal rule that allowed him to be terminated and didn't hire someone else who would've been stable in that role otherwise. It happens.
>>81029371
They don't have that, because they weren't the first entrants to the market. Therefore, the pickings are slim and you need good talent headhunters to pick the wheat from the chaff and actually grow a good 2view into that headliner talent. Cover doesn't have those people on the male side and argubly, even on the female side.
>>81029378
There isn't for specifically just males vtubers and just retorting and sprouting the common belief doesn't make the opposite view any more convincing. No one is going to be convinced overall that one company isn't better than the other but telling yourself that the same holds true for specific areas like Vsingers or male vtubers despite ample evidence that isn't true is delusional.

Cover does a good job of this on the Hololive side, I don't know what you even mean. They have a very, very good track record.
It's harder for Holostars but that's because the product is frankly stupid, of course it's difficult to make a male branch work in the all-female idol company, it would be difficult for Pepsi-Cola to try to sell lawn rakes as well.

>>81029743
>Cover isn't perfect
Very aware of it. They're still subject to the usual JP corpo flaws.

>>81029883
Cover has taken less risks than most of the market has since their first gens and doesn't have good talents in abundance that makes them leaps and bounds over other competitors out there. That's not a fail but I would not say you are being exceptional in that case, you are only doing good or maybe above average. There is also the question of missed opportunities as well for some of the girls that were available at the time that are now stars in smaller corpos that people love. On that premise, I disagree for at least EN especially given how prevalent the divisiveness of judgement on half of Justice's talents has turned out on this board. I don't know JP well enough to say the same objectively but it may be different there because Cover was actually breaking new ground and creating a new market.

>>81017260
> "AnyColor" and "Cover" are too similar for speedereading, and I did not want to change one header to the company name
T-they aren't even the same shape, and it seems changing them both to the company name would be the most logical thing to do.

As it is, I'm going to have to re-read Holopro to figure out what company you're talking about as, like everyone else here, we're not used to seeing that. It isn't even an shortening the company uses, let alone the board.

Rather have "Hololive", if we can't get "Cover", as it's at least something we're used to seeing.

But as always, do as thou wilt, no one's better at round ups around here than you are as the founding member. Just don't bother asking, if you're not taking input.

>>81026678
That's a descent termination notice, at least. No dirt and just barely specific enough.

I do hate that they are deleting his Youtube. I suppose that's standard fair, but it costs them nothing to keep it and it's always such a "fuck you" to the fans. It's true, they've no other way to prove they aren't still making money off it (be nice if Youtube had a monetization tag the public could see). At least they gave sufficient notice for the fans to archive it all, so there's that.

>>81028410
let them be, they have lost parts of their brain that contains the chuubas who graduated or terminated.

>>81029080
>Let's not oversell what Yagoo did here.
Given the sort of ranting, shit flinging, doxxing, global black listing termination notices, containing character assassinations of every last sin they've ever committed in their entire lives, only to be outweighed by several more manufactured ones made up whole cloth - ie. the sort of terminations we're used to seeing around here - it's really hard to oversell.

Mourning Watch anon here, my condolences to any fellow Gamma fans.

Regardless, it's a week in review!

ANYCOLOR ABHORS GAINS
While Anycolor manages to recover some of their losses, they still close out today at a loss at 2564 yen (-16). They head out without even going over the green as well.

ANYCOLOR WEEK IN REVIEW
Anycolor for the most part flatlined compared to last week, with a 12 yen loss overall for the week. There's really not much to say outside of a steep loss on Tuesday that they recovered from. But what's becoming evident however is that the trading volume has now seemingly returned to Pre Q4 numbers. Further evidence that this shit isn't wanted.

In short Anycolor didn't lose much, which is good. But they failed to make any gains/recovery, so it's actually a very bad week considering their circumstances.

Days until the Shareholder's meeting: 11

COVER GRAZED BY LOSSES
Cover is also hit by losses, they're heading to the weekend at 2068 yen (-11), not so nice. However considering their erratic pattern before hand and even their position not even an hour before the market closed, perhaps Cover should be more grateful tonight.

COVER'S WEEK IN REVIEW
Cover's week has been rather disappoint after last Friday's performance, as they clock in at at 71 yen loss. However I think is still a success in a odd way, as we saw earlier this week that they indeed can make it to the 2200s (we'll get to closing out in there when we get there) but other than it has been a rather steady decline. Although I think it could be attributed that some of their problems was due to the small crash in the NIKKEI on Thursday that hasn't recovered yet.

Overall, disappointing. But we did see some signs of encouragement, hopefully it wasn't just a glimpse.

OTHER
The NIKKEI rides off into the sunset with a 0.16 loss today
Trading volumes:
Anycolor: 435k
Cover: 3.87 Million

>>81031304
And awfully conveniently so.

I was indifferent to them but hearing their vile shit soured me a lot on them. And their politics too.

>>81031341
Fucks sake I should get my eye's checked. That's the NIKKEI graph. Here's the Anycolor graph

And lastly for real this time, the Cover Graph.

That's all for tonight/this week, I'm gonna try that Jojo RPG fangame. But I'll see you Sunday/Monday.

I'm not saying, as sad as it is that we got to this point, that it shouldn't be applauded as an example of doing things right that should be the bare minimum. But Yagoo literally did not do one of the things that was said in that post I quoted and saying otherwise because it was a positive thing is overselling it. I wished he would've wished Gamma well because other corpos in the past did do that before this year since even though it was a termination, the seperation was amicable enough to do a PR post and let him have a final message to share but this just tells me that he screwed up in a way or was cared less about than how even Mel was handled.

>>81017260
I'm changing my mind from agreeing to HoloPro. I think using Cover but leaving Nijisanji as-is would work. AnyColor only has Nijisanji technically (and Nijisanji EN which is implied here), with VTA being co-owned, not even mentioned on their corporate website, and rarely covered here.

Well considering they were looking for a contents director not even a month ago (https://x.com/cover_corp/status/1806615166446174395)) I don't think we need to speculate on if they have any direction.

I say this as a Tempus fan, what the fuck are they doing? Outside of 3Ds and outfits (which Altare still dosen't have for some reason) HolostarsEN has done next to fucking nothing. It feels like all has Cover drunkenly put up Armis, realized that they made a NijiEN wave instead, and just were like "oh well" and left the branch behind outside of 3D debuts. I hate what they've done to it.

>>81029883
I mean, it's not that farfetched. Holostars has been around for a long time, some of them debuted before Gen 3. And it makes sense for Cover to attempt to make a male branch work, it's a similar field that instead panders to a different audience. Akin to Pepsi selling Mug and Starry if we want to keep the soda analogy.

That's only here which doesn't matter to hololive at all. No matter how many bait threads are made it doesn't affect anyone. I think ERB is a weak streamer overall and even if it wasn't for the homoshilling I'd be uninterested in watching her, but she isn't crashing and burning miserably in viewership to say she's being rejected by the audience. She's just at the bottom half with Gigi. HoloEN is still far from having a 3view like other corpos or homostars(which has extremely low demand).

>>81034521
There always a creep story to homobeggars isn't there? No wonder they project so much.

>>81036358
Good evening. Man, weekend can't come soon enough

>>81036396
Think part of the reason Holostars doesn't do as well as the Niji boys used to is simply because Cover is always aiming for a much more wholesome atmosphere, to the point where it's almost sterile, for both the boys and girls (some of the latter of which are struggling to hide their power level). I doubt you'll see any simulated blow jobs/cunnilingus wet ASMR out of Holostars, and if one of their fans was carving their names into their arms, it'd be a company wide emergency, where as Nijisanji does not give a single shit about anything but their stock ticker.

Girls want bad boys, and Cover does not deliver.
