The only bad blood is between one Phase Connect talent (who used to be in CyberLive), and the rest of the former CyberLive talents.
Tsunderia imploded on it's own, and a few of them moved to Phase, while the rest went indie.
And Phase, Prism, Kawaii, and the former Tsunderia indies still continue to collab fairly often.
Kawaii had its own internal drama, and Prism made the controversial decision to add males, but they're both still on good terms with the other corpos.

I think their main legacy will be paving the way for a higher degree of mental illness in EN corpotubing. JPs have a longer history of being perfomatively menhera but the big two EN branches as well as VS (which isn't a corpo arguably) had more of an expectation of semi-well adjusted behaviour until these came around.

CyberLive's legacy is a drama-filled cesspool that is best forgotten.
Tsunderia's legacy is the first western corpo that paved the way for the current league of small/medium corpos: Phase Connect, Idol, Kawaii, and Prism. Whose legacy, in turn, is providing an alternative 3rd type of content, different from both Holo and Nji/VShojo.
Hololive provides the standard sanatized idol experience.
Nijisanji and VShojo provide the full talent freedom, anti-idol experience.
Phase, Idol, Kawaii, and Prism provide something in between, where talents are free to do edgy/menhera content, but still respect the aspect of idol culture in which they are expected to not be total whores.

As someone who got in small corpo in 2021 instead of being a catalog fag
> tsunderia collapsed because the CEO doesn't give a fuck. He was just trying to make a quick buck in the scene and being one of the first. The contract was very generous with a lot of " talent freedom" but that also coke with little support. They barely get any merch, terrible merch and project planning, and talents have to do a lot of the work that should be management side job (packing for merch, etc). After the company is gone, the talents are still on good term with each other and mostly doing well as indie or being in other corpo
Cyberlive: similiar to tsun in being overly idealistic with cut and "talent freedom". However, there were also internal major drama with all management and talents involved that still linger until this day. They straight up can't get merch or anything done as well.
Prism: one of the first "idol small corpo" that mirror hololive. There were some terrible decision (particularly regarding membership). The CEO lacks focus and got sidetracked by shit like NFT which blows up in his face. The company growth stalled without project done and 2 of their strong growing girls (shiki and luto) going on extensive breaks due to personal reason. After the fish early graduation, he sell the company to Sony. It takes 1 year for Sony to kickstart Prism back into gear with a new gen/invader and music project being released. They probably are ready to make some big move soon.
Kawaii: has some management issue later on but kinda fix them slowly. They were growing well and was at #1-2 spot, and made huge investment into pushing for 3d and idol concert like the big league. However, gen 3 having internal drama with each other as well as against management probably set them back greatly. They still managed to be the only small EN corpo that get a solid 3d concert out. However, due to gen 3, they probably lost a lot money investment in the model as well as having to refund a huge sum of money for those gen 3 donothon. There is a gap in their project pacing. They are the only corpo dedicared hard to push the Holojp idol experience and that sort of stall their growth as well as the small corpo pushing for the western streamer scene are growing faster in the EN scene. Also, they are conservative in investment into ads and promotional purpose. They try to lick their wound with an upcoming gen 4.
Phase: solid start and got boosted really hard by Pippa, for better or worse. Some girls in the company alter their stream content and social media activity to fit in with Pippa while others distance themselves from it. The CEO pretty much allows the talents to do w/e they want.

The legacy of Tsunderia and Cyberlive is becoming cautionary tales for the rest of the industry. The rest are still stories being written.

I thought at first that Phase and Kawaii were going to die, either collapsing or languishing in obscurity. While Prism, after Sony bough it, would be a small corpo with big money behind it - allowing it to endure the losses and eventually rise through a mix of business-savvy management, entertainment industry connections and steady investment.

Instead, it looks like, in a series of unusual events, Phase became the one small corpo that made it. They aren't up there with the big boys yet, but they seemingly made it out of the small corpo meat grinder and into some "medium corpo" zone.

Instead of Prism, the place of "a small corpo with big money behind it" went to Idol. Although I wouldn't write Prism and Kawaii off entirely just yet.

Kawaii is never quite bad with project delay. They get their 3d done really fast and gen release really fast. Perhaps gen 3 was released too quickly with too short of the time from audition to debut (like 3 months). I think they might take their time this time. I don't think ads will help them that much due to their nature of being more "idol like" but they should participate in more cons and having small performance in those cons.

As a longtime Prism fan, Luto going on repeated lengthy hiatus cratered the company’s virality. She was their Pippa (not quite as powerful but comparable role) until she took an entire year on-again-off-again working a normie job and having real life shit. Shiki had a ton of momentum at debut (gen3 was the prism golden age) but has mostly failed to keep that going. She got a record deal though which is pretty significant for small corpos.

Gens 5-7 are the Sony gens. Ami from 5 is promising, I believe she joined to try and get a record deal. 6 is males, we don’t talk about them. 7 is an invader wave and includes Emma from Cyberlive. I think all 3 of gen 7 are looking to get into music, while Emma seems to just want a manager. I wonder if she had beef with Lumi and chose prism over phase invaders?

So Prism is the singer focused small corpo I guess. The talents are mostly great and underrated streamers, I blame Prism management and Sony for failing to market the girls and buy intelligent advertising as idol has done.

Sanitized*. Also you have no idea what an "idol experience" is, not even Cover call themselve idol company anymore, nor did they start as one. They are idol-ish at best.
>Nijisanji provide the full talent freedom, anti-idol experience.
There are no "talent freedom" in Nijisanji, they do not go out of their way to be "anti-idol", they prioritize streaming because to do more require money and company support and Riku sure as hell won't pay for that. They started as a low cost alternative to Kizuna Ai's expensive 3D setup, it worked for a while.
>VShojo provide the full talent freedom, anti-idol experience.
VShojo are a mix of western anime fans and literal bandwagon normies. They introduce politics into vtubing, do nepo hires, have founding members graduate, backstab coworker, and just act spiteful in general. Their branding of "talent freedom, anti-idol experience" is just full of shit, it isn't an advantage. Good thing compare to Holo and Niji, they are a drop in the ocean.

The only issue Gen 3 had with each other was a backstabbing and doxxing member called Oceane. The other 4 became one of the strongest units in vtubing. So strong that they were able to "unionize" against the toxic parts of Kawaii's company culture, made demands, didn't back down, and then quit altogether to form an indie group. They have been streaming with temp models since then, but are expected to announce their new group sometime next month.

I think posting receipts makes her look worse because sharing private DMs is scummy as fuck, no matter the circumstances. It was always clear none of the CL girls like Lumi, and Lumi doesn't like them.
Hylo should have just let shit be because it doesn't matter what she says, Lumifags will always love their yellow woman. But instead, she comes off looking worse than Lumi.

I think that's the point, I don't think Hylo cares about her own reputations since she posted this after privating her twitter and graduating.
Lumi always had the benefit of the doubt in the thousands of bait threads because there was never concrete proof that she actively sought to undermine other talents, but now, there's first hand account and proof of the rrats actually taking place.

>> No.55501911

On all the "Phase is carried by Pippa": I think that's a challenge any small corpo has to face, unless it implodes first.

Most small corpos are more Niji than they are Holo, in that there's no "safety net". Holo does alright with small well supported well-rounded generations - Niji favors quantity and "sink or swim". Small corpos can rarely afford anything more than "sink or swim" - and they can only hope that among the talent that swims, there will be strong swimmers.

The challenge is transitioning then from being a small corpo that just happens to have one big name in it, and into a medium corpo with a more well rounded roster. You can easily fuck that up, and end up with your one big talent falling from grace, jumping shit or just menhera self-destructing from the mix of ego boost and increased pressure.

Phase-Connect is in the middle of doing that transition. It helps that the "big talent" in question seems to cooperate - from what I've heard, Pippa has toned down her controversymaxxing that fueled a lot of her growth. That, or she yabbed so hard she built up yab immunity and none of her newer yabs make the news anymore.

Even at the beginning these corpos attracted total amateurs without a clue. It's not all the talents fault though, they corpos should have given them some stake in the company or shares.

“The concrete proof” leaves a little to be desired after 2 years of hearing about how she single handedly burnt Cyberlive to the ground from the inside.

I just can't think of any good reason she'd do this. It's just weird. Unless maybe Pandora and Yuri were the ones that started the numberfagging, they made Hylo feel bad, and Lumi was trying to make her feel better? Or maybe Hylo was getting competitive and was the one who prompted these messages, and Lumi was just playing along out of politeness? Or hell, maybe it'd be justified if this happened after the other girls were bitchy to Lumi in some way? Man, I just don't know.

Plus you had other issues like direct contact with fans via Discord causing drama and community exclusivity, look through their discord archive and half of it is gossiping about the goings-on at the discord server. That's not where you want your community to be.
The biggest hit was the lack of group cohesion: Kiki and Riifu were ridiculously eager to coombait whilst Kilia and Skye were trying to be normal and it wasn't live and let live either; Skye caused further alienation because she was vocal but flip-flopped over that shit a lot and the crossover between fans was a mess.
I don't know what the atmosphere is over at Eien nowadays, but it must feel pretty bleak. Gen 2 is literally their only hope at this point. All I can really say to them is Good Luck and shut down the Discord.

I wonder to what extent are the Phase-Connect "inmates are running the asylum" rrats true.

Many times I've heard the rrat that early Phase-Connect was aiming to be in the same "seiso-oriented, risk-averse" niche as Hololive. Which was very much not going to happen after it turned out that their Gen 1 talent is basically all menheras, capable of putting out more yab in a stream than a Holo girl does in a year - and more than willing to demonstrate.

The rrat goes that this management-talent conflict culminated in an epic tard wrangling showdown - and tards wrangled the management into submission.

Is there anything known about Phase management at all? Seems like it's very "hands off" now, and the only non-talent public figure the entire corpo has is Sakana, the CEO. Who's treated as more of a meme than even Yagoo is.

EIEN had a debut jump to go low mid 3 views but stabilize into low 3 views nowaday as well.

The general story goes that Lumi tried her best to keep things together from day 1 by working with their underaged manager, which made the other 4 gen 1's not like her. She's even said that Pandora and Seina were a unit, as well as Hylo and Yuri. In her mind she probably gossiped with each of them to keep them happy to keep them together, rather than trying to drive them to graduating. Lumi to this day denies doing anything wrong and has never responded to any CL bait on twitter or streams, and even cried about people not trusting her intentions. The fact that she's never leaked any of the drama herself as well, while the other 9 have been trying to tear her down incessantly to me speaks more about Lumi being the bigger person, than any of the others being real victims.

I'll throw a legit bone to Kawaii antis. Management has their fingers in their ears about the value of the yen vs USD. They raised prices 42% for no benefit to fans when moving from fanbox to patreon. Meanwhile they use fantasy pricing for internally budgeting for the girls.

Don’t fall for these types of victim baiting. If she had really wanted to put it behind her, why come back after having graduated just to try to cancel Lumi? All the shit she presents are either extremely one-sided, or out of context, or using a fucking 4fhan rrat as proof. Hulo is a vengeful bitch, along with pandora, emma and yoki. They will try at every turn to cancel lumi and phase. But because of their ugly backstabbing chat had been long exposed before, their attempts never worked. People instead turn on them. They then try to up-play the victim card like you see happen here, most of the time even completely unprompted. They have this holy fucking crusade to cancel lumi over I guess what’s in the screenshot?? Here’s some things to consider before believing everything these bitches say at face value:

Why only post one sided DM out of context? Let’s see how she responded to Lumi. She was probably in on it and might even have been the one who instigated the conversation.

Inability to provide a single shred of proof outside of out of context screenshots that can be easily faked about literally any one of their claims.

Overwhelming evidence of them shit talking lumi behind her back.

Overwhelming evidence that their cult leader was a whore who slept with fans.

Got caught lying red-handed about communicating with Phase management and Lumi to solve the model issue. Tried to cancel, but came off as vengeful petty bitches.

Obvious malicious intent to cancel lumi when coming out of graduation to simply shit on Lumi unprompted. And coordinating together to cancel Lumi on twitter.

Carries personal vendetta to new found corpor job and preemptively blocks Pippa and probably rest of phase out of pure spite. Then proceeds to play the victim when people found out.

Hylo also is reigniting old drama for no reason which is never really indicative of being a well meaning individual.

Yoki was in chat during Lumi’s April Fools stream when she showed the old Cyberlive girls’s models on stream. Yoki sent a few messages saying “hi Lumi” and a smiley face/emote or something. Then after the stream Yoki made a tweet with the other girls calling Lumi out for using their models on stream. It just seems kind of silly to be laughing about it in twitch chat one minute and then trying to cancel the person the next.

This also happened while Lumi was still mid stream. So they made no attempt to contact Lumi or Phase in general to solve the issue. The call out was coordinated and was an attempt to cancel Lumi on the spot.

Management probably just want to raise the price and take the chance of the switch from fanbox to patreon to do it. They probably want to make up for the budget loss from gen 3 bailing out but they aren't going to straight up say that. Beside, fanbox/patreon is an optional thing, just like dono. Kawaii is probably messing with the price to min max the supply/demand for it, especially for reward items that are personalized.

I always hear that but they just collabed with idol, Lia's collabing with tons of different corpos, pippa said she's setting up a mahjong collab with henya and they're about to start the mahjong soul event which probably means that the AL collab isn't too far behind, what blacklisting are you even on about ?

Lia is literally gonna collab with Pomu Rainpuff soon (unless Pomu flakes, but she name dropped it on stream so that is just a matter of getting a date)
Phase is breaking thru and collabing with the #1 girl in Niji.

What's with all you guys getting so mad over that stream ? Yeah the corpo blocked pippa and was on twitter going on anti loli tirades and lying, shouldn't she milk it ? She repeatly said she wasn't going after their predebut aura and no she didn't get any harrassement or said anything about it, is there some new rule saying you can't clown on someone that's never going to sponsor you ?

The ponytail version actually looks good. Still kinda plain, design-wise, but at least it's hot. Definitely as ugly as the main version.
Too bad she only uses it about half the time tho. I wish she would just use the ponytail version exclusively.

Jelly streams in the worst timeslot.
Panko streams ina. gerat timeslot. Tenma and Ember do much better than her because they are better chuubas.

Ember doesn't stream on the same timeslot and Tenma is a gen 1, problem with panko was her sending most of her first year completely lost and not knowing what to do, she's finally started to accept that she's better doing zatsu and having more chat interaction and has dropped the streamer games which has give her a big boost

>tenma is a gen1
So? That makes it harder. Gen1 doesn't get advertisement like gen2 & invaders do + has had to survive the waves on new gens. Gen3 will be the 4th wave of new talent gen 1 will have withstood. I have seen more Panko ads than I have seen Pippa, Tenma, Lia or Uruka.

Panko has a weak zatsu and she has one of the weaker ccvs in the company to match. >>55518152

Nobody cares about Panko unless she is lewd batiing. If her career ended tomorrow, her lone highlight is a hentai tag stream from 9 months ago,

Lia's really been on a roll lately with the big collabs, I'm kind of sad that it's shiina that got to 100k before her, she really deserves it even if I like shiina, especially since it was getting incredibly lucky with shorts, can't wait for the pomu and the scott cawthon collab she's hinted at a few times, she's really doing the work

>> No.55529026

>>55528419
>I'm kind of sad
Why? Don't be sad.
Subs are a shorts lotto now. Lia has grown with no real help from algo. All of her videos and shorts are modest. Nothing even remotely min-viral.
She has grown the old fashion way. When she gets 100k and gets that $5 plaque, it will be a truly earned thing she can be proud of because it didnt come easy. She didn't just wake up one day with 25k extra subs and she didn't start in a company that had a base fanbase of 15k subs head start like Gen2/Invaders.
Shiina works hard and I'm happy for her too. Lia just needs to run her race.
