==REMINDER TO ALL MENHERA==
>M: Please don't get merch because you feel pressured or anything like that. DON'T do anything that you don't want to. We really mean it, okay?
>F: So you know, maybe you're like, "Oh, well, you know, maybe if I make a clip maybe more people will discover FUWAMOCO from there!" - it's true, but maybe you REALLY don't like video editing... Maybe don't that.
>M: However you want to, okay?
>F: You know, oshikatsu's supposed to be fun! You know, just tweeting, being loud -
>M: Being HERE with us!
>F: Yeah!
>M: That's all - that's MORE that we can ask for!
>F: Yeah, being like, "Ah! My best friend, you know, I REALLY like these vtubers called FUWAMOCO!". You know, those kinds of things, you know...
>M: So, please, don't feel like, "Oh, THIS Ruffian is doing all this and I'M not doing ANYTHING"...
>F: No. You know, oshikatsu is fun for everybody and ANYBODY!
>M: You should never feel like that, okay? So PLEASE don't compare yourselves to somebody else, okay?
>F: We just want you to have fun. You shouldn't feel pressure.
>M: We don't want you to disappear because of something, you know...
>F: Yeah, so, you know... if your smile's in trouble...
>*Both shake their heads*
>M: Just don't worry, we just want you to be here with us.
>F: Yeah, we wanna protect your smile and have fun together, Ruffians!
>M: You got it? It's not work! It should be FUN! We understand that you compare yourselves to others and stuff like that... SO THAT'S WHY WE SAY "DON'T"! We get it, you know? Because we felt it too before, okay? *reads chat message* You wish you could superchat more? IT'S OKAY! DON'T WORRY! We want you to have fun.
>F: And you know, it's the little things that count, too, you know. So, just sending a tweet like, "BAU BAU!" - that helps, you know?
>M: Yeah! Do what you can!
>F: "I'm on break right now, you know! I had a real delicious sandwich! FUWAMOCO, I had a delicious sandwich!" ... You know, it makes us happy to know that you're thinking about us cause sometimes, you know, we get a little bit lonely. Like, "are the Ruffians thinking about us...?"
>M: Please don't worry, okay? *reads chat message* You can't write well? It's OKAY! Don't worry about it!
>F: But it makes us really happy to know you're thinking about ways you can help us, Ruffians...
>M: We don't want you to get sad and be like, "I can't enjoy FUWAMOCO anymore because I compare myself to other Ruffians", okay?

Reading through the end of the last thread and this was the post that stuck out to me

Mainly because we KNOW FUWAMOCO have had issues with management before in the past. The week of silence, which then led to them getting a new manager. They even said it themselves, May was the hardest month for them in hololive so far

I do want to believe them when they say everything is good they love mane-chan like a mom and all that, but we have no idea really what's going on behind the scenes. Things have been rough for them the past couple months and this doesn't make me feel assured

wow people are vocal about the graduation announcement and they are not happy. Theyre discontented with the disagreement with management and quick successive talents jumping ship. I guess they were holding out hope for a merch announcement. There's even a petition that's garnered thousands of signatures to have Fauna forced to stay. Obviously that wont happen but it shows how unhappy they are.

Twitter is on fire with people blasting Cover for this "new direction" that is causing a big exodus of talent. We can only hope it causes them to look at whats happening and make changes. I've always viewed Hololive as a place that empowers talents and gives them a platform to show their skills. Some of them use it well and become megastars like Marine, Suisei, Pekora. If Cover start pulling the rug out from under Holos so they can't do that anymore and are stuck on an endless treadmill of merch production to increase quarterly profits it would make me extremely angry. FWMC deserve this chance, they deserve success, they don't deserve to be fucked around yet again by circumstances beyond their control.

Fauna never was lazy, she just knew what she wanted to do and did it without letting people fuck with her. Similar to Shiori in a way.

Fauna didn't quit because she was overworked. She barely did anything. She didn't stream much, very few voice packs, barely any songs. What do you think she was "overworked" with?

NTA, but for the sake of this conversation, let's assume that they're secretly unhappy with management and some of the things they have to do.
I think we know and they know that if they were to leave Hololive now or soon, that the majority of these new fans of theirs are not going to be following them to wherever they go or end up in, especially JPs. They can probably count on the travelers who are still around and the new die hard ruffians, but those are pretty much it. Those aren't enough for them to make a living on especially if they plan to continue staying in Japan, and so they will have to stay in Hololive for as long as they can, even if they were the only ENs left in the near future. So for their sake, I hope that they truly are happy or at least ok with what they're doing in Hololive and that Hololive is still a good and enjoyable place to work, because there really is no alternative for them at the moment.

The main thing here is, and I'm not saying it doesn't suck because it does, I'm in agreement, but this is well within "idol work."
So at the end of the day, it would be, in fact, not wanting to do idol work.
FWMC would think this is well worth doing for the chance to be on stage more often, others may think "I do like being on stage, I like being an idol, I just don't like this."
But "this" IS part of being an idol. Nobody said it was all sunshine and rainbows.

The new direction suits some talents. But not the lazy ones. Every talent that has graduated this year except for Mel was lazy and as indies have remained lazy.

I see these graduations as a necessary pain. Now more resources can go to the girls willing to put in the work. Promise was the worst gen in the company and it's clear with Advent and Justice, cover has hired girls better suited to the grind.

Keep in mind, those things weren't properly developed games or anything. They were rigged together with manual scene switching in OBS and shit like that.

The problem is that the suits (and a good portion of normalfag fans) think that Hololive is selling a product. This is easy to think if you only watch clips, big events like concerts, or if you read Cover's quarterly finance reports. On paper alone, you would see that merchandising and big events like concerts bring in the most revenue by far. So these idiot finance majors start trying to "optimize cashflow" by getting rid of the things that lose money (paying talents and streaming) and increasing the things that make money (merchandise and concerts). What they and many fans fail to realize is that Hololive is actually in the service industry. There's a reason it exploded with Holo Fantasy and why they are known as the "cabaret generation" by the Japanese. The girls are the service, the service is what is being sold. You take lonely men and make them fall in love with your charming ladies via CONSTANT REPEATED INTERACTION (cannot stress this enough) and then those men want to support those ladies by buying their merch and going to their concerts. You think I actually need acrylic stands or plushies? Fuck no, I buy them to support my Holos and because they might notice me if I post pictures on Twitter which in turn helps keep Hololive trending and does free advertising for them.

Hololive basically had the most successful cabaret club in existence and now some paper pushers have come in and looked at the financials and drawn the wrong conclusions from it. "Hey people are buying a lot of champagne. They must really like champagne. Let's offer more champagne. Why are we paying these hostesses so much? We don't even need this many girls, that's money we could be spending on champagne. Look at these reports, champagne sells the most by far, clearly these men are coming to buy champagne."

It's idiotic. The people in this picture are wearing products yes, but they are celebrating the services provided by the girls.

If what Mori said up there is related to it then maybe it was a directive to shill more? Ones like Gura wouldn't be affected because she moves merch regardless.

Here you go. This is why you've seen such an insane increase in products/goods and collabs in the last year and why you hear so many gloom and doom about Cover being public.

You're not supposed to say this out loud, but you're completely right. Last year when we got notice that Cover wanted to veer towards intensifying franchising and profit over their characters, people were already doomposting about how this could break the connection to the girls and all that. Now we are here at the timeline where management is at least very anal about some things and has a big disconnect towards what some of the talent want. And, if the rrat of this being due to new suits is real, then it might take a bunch of high-profile graduations until things maybe get better.

The NBA is constantly trying to make people the face of the league in order to market it better. If all your top stars leave, people lose interest. Games with Curry or Lebron sell out and for higher prices, even if they aren't playoff games. This is like if all your top stars start leaving.

But Curry and Lebron are still there and holding sololives in the next few weeks/months, or just had one. They're achieving the highest highs in their whole careers, even.
The people I care about most are thriving or inspired to keep doing their best under NBA. Something is clearly going on but it doesn't seem to be getting in the way of any of the ones I'm invested in, so I'm not gonna shit on the NBA just because. Even though, yes, Michael Jordan is not really comparable. But Michael Jordan himself would definitely not be playing at the Budokan without the NBA's support. It's a key part of his trajectory.
He's also very rapeable.

I mean they already are never getting the 7 hours of sleep a night or 1M in a year so that was already the reality. They could have done ASMR with her any time the past year but they were too autistic about wanting to do it with patra first

2024 has shown that successful corpos can pretty much recover their fanbases when they redebut as indies, so it seems reasonable for someone who already feels they're not getting 100% value from their contract would try and argue for a better position (less restrictions, better split, more support for personal projects). I don't blame talents for looking out for number one.

>Hololive basically had the most successful cabaret club in existence
Aren't cabaret clubs basically in the same industry as hooters, strip clubs porn video stores, and, in the locales where prostitution is regulated but legal, brothels?
Those usually get blacklisted from being invested in by larger players.

I'll be honest. I'm very distraught and I cannot bear the direction that hololive is going. This doesn't feel like the same warm place that I fell in love with almost five years ago. Please take care of yourselves, and know that to us, you are the most important part.
