Yes. It was an attempt to clean non-CN vtube companies off of Bilibili, starting with Hololive, because they were the biggest and even original Chinese vtubers struggled against them.

Since you can go there and still see clips of Gura dwarfing literally all other vtuber content, you can tell that it didn't work. It was another hairbrained ploy by some overpaid government official who probably thought he was playing 4D Chess against Japan when he was doing it.

Even funnier is how Cover would rather disband their entire CN branch than kowtow to the Chinks.

This, and I'll say the only reason Anycolor wasn't hit with the same bullshit is because it became clear the Hololive shit backfired HARD on the zhangs at Bilibili and trying the same thing with two gigantic vtuber companies would make even the dumbest zhang supremacist re-think his priorities. They were genuinely not expecting that much backlash.

Honestly the whole incident was probably a power play by Bilibili that went bad.

I'm not sure if it was 200IQ, it was the correct move at the time to cut off the limb that had become gangrenous.
It's 200IQ now because Xi is hell-bent on banning all fun, and Hololive would have had to pivot anyway, regardless.

Ironically Haato, who actually did say Taiwan, is remembered by many Anons as instead showing a Taiwanese flag and a graph listing several other countries due to an edited picture that was shared in a news report.

No. People will say it was to take off the pressure off Haachama but that would be false considering even the chinks thought Haachama's fuck up was because she is predisposed to being retarded.

Something comparable. A manga getting cancelled after pissing of Mongolia by making a dumb penis joke about Genghis Khan. The mangaka thought he was making a silly joke about a historical figure, unaware how much of a sensitive subject it is to Mongolians if you start insulting their national symbol.

Haachama told us without telling us. Cover Corp will always say it was an accident because if it was on purpose to save haachama than that means coco basically told china to fuck off and die and Cover chose her over CN, meaning the antis will attack Cover harder.

Playing it off as an accident is damage control. But you just know.

Also it gives me major respect for coco and if it was an accident than i see her with significantly less value as a person ngl. Which wouldn't fit well with how every other holo depicts her as courageous and strong and aren't just saying it for kayfabe
