The problem isn't PR. It's that the company sees its talent as interchangeable codes on a spreadsheet and the only goal is to make Rika more money.

Nijisanji is going to end up where it belongs, as the minor leagues of vtubing. Something you do to get your name out there so you can go elsewhere to make actual money.

This is probably the best thing they could realistically do.
Release a corpospeak statement saying there are problems in Niji's company culture and management practices, keep it vague, and say steps are being taken to fix them.
Should calm people down for a little while and let them know that Anycolor is aware things are not ok.

[Anonymous No.]

There's nothing a mere PR guy can do to fix things because the talents and management have ruined everything beyond repair. The best thing I could possibly do is try to convince Anykara to fire every troublemaker and start all over with the talents that are safe. It would be a PR disaster, but would benefit NijiEN in the long run.

Honestly, I think the only way that any of these companies is going to get their EN branches to have any success is to do like Nintendo and make a subsidy company then leave them the fuck alone. They get a cut of the profit and keep their nose out of EN's business.

These Japanese corpos don't (or won't) realize that asian company culture is toxic as fuck to western talents and viewers. Truth be told, if vtubing lasts another 5 years or so, I think we're gonna see a bunch of American and European companies spring up and take over in their local areas.

1) Rebrand. Any further, new, English-speaking talents will be recruited in a new project that is not using names such as "Nijisanji", "liver", "2434", and so on. Remember this has never stopped VirtuaReal from collabing with Nijisanji streamers from all branches, including EN.
2) The exact reasons as to why so many different projects have been rejected, shut down and retroactively privated is not publicly known, talents before and after graduation don't provide all the relevant details, so the first thing I'd do as a new manager would be to figuring that one out.
3) Admit something is wrong as per: >>66126906 But beyond that, literally walk to the investors and tell them in simple Japanese you found and fired the people responsible for this series of blunders. Make a show out it on social media and news channels. "We were second on the scene, but we were not successful in adapting to the English-speaking sphere of vtubing. We let down too many talents and fans. We have changed. We will continue to evolve." The man making this announcement bows to the investors, and announces his own resignation.
4) Move to Twitch as a primary streaming platform and seek interaction with the usual suspects from VShojo and their orbiters.
5) Offer lewdtubing options, only for whichever streamers that are willing to go through them, through specific, dedicated channels, including alternative streaming platforms and merchandise distributors. There is no reason to just stop with an official R18 fanart hashtag on Twitter for a streamer when there is money to be made, which could be used to finance all manner of activities, lewd and not. This also means to offer the option to allow a talent to eventually withdraw from lewdtubing content and merch (once the earliest obligations are fulfilled) when they no longer feel the desire to pursue them. Seek a sincere conversation on the matter with candidate talents that pass the first or second step of the audition: start only with this question: "Would you allow a R18 fanart hashtag on Twitter like other streamers have?", and if their answer is: "No", then stop there. They could always change their mind later.

PR manager? like all I can do is try to explain away the problems and convince people things are good, I can't actually change internal affairs? I mean I would want to go rrat-slaying first of all because the seeds of what gets said here unironically can form the basis of the underbelly of opinions of the entire community, because a lot of news/dramatubers pretty much are just "/vt/ summary of the day/week" so what is said here, matters. I think this is why some of the talents get so mad like millie because they are powerless to try to suppress what people think getting out to become the meta.

however if I cannot actually-change anything, if I am the sole english speaking representative to salvage their image, I mean I'd disprove the 2% meme, disprove the yachts shit, prove that the 3Ds getting bungled was some external problem (that isn't covid), disprove the clique accusations all without trying to throw shade on anyone who already left/was fired. but if I am a PR guy either I'd be lying through my teeth and it'd all cave in if anyone asked Riku if he has a yacht and he said yes or something, or I'd just be powerless.

Sort of unrelated but does anyone find it odd that nijisanji is meant to release vtubers constantly in hopes of targeting some niche and being super successful… and yet their main competitor is dominating one of those niches (cgdct/no males) and nijisanji has never released a talent to capitalize off of that? It seems weird that this obvious market is sitting right there, but nijisanji just refuses to capitalize off of it, instead choosing to do the same thing it’s been doing again for the 15th time, which appeals to the exact same demographic and only serves to cannibalize your existing fanbase… it’s just weird to me that they’re willing to appeal to every niche, except for the blatantly obvious and hugely successful one sitting right in front of them.

So to answer your question, release a new wave of nijifemales who are banned from associating with their male counterparts, in an attempt to recapture some of the ground lost to hololive.

I don't think that the EN scene will be dominated by singular large companies as it was at the start of 2022. Because hologrls constantly go on hiatus and because vshojo is on twitch only and because niji hates having money and followers the fanbases are fragmenting outwards. Phase is growing but others are declining faster than phase is inclining. VSPO En will be a thing soon as well and take a portion of the western viwerbase. The trend is towards smaller companies and indies increasing in number as the large ones decrease.

step 1: convince everyone in the company, that regaining reputation is futile at this point
step 2: therefore tap into new markets where you are unknown and can build a new reputation
step 3: convince stakeholders that such a market would be the adult/erotic market, pointing at Melodies success an the almost empty playing field ripe for taking
step 4: force everyone into doing cosplay porn (no avatars, they play their characters in liveaction)
step 5: leave and enjoy more hololive

US is probably worse in that regard because there's some semblance of loyalty in the Japanese system where they'll work you like a slave, but still keep you if you show up.

The branch needs a new identity so I'd make a core female unit similar to Zuttomo with Elira, Selen, Rosemi, Maria, and Vivi and have them focus on female collabs and solo content (Selen is fine with da boys and FPS games don't count anyway). New female hires can be added to that new unit and I'd shill them as hard as they shilled Luxiem back in the day with favoritism so blatant it'd filter out a lot of the turbo-shitters. I would also absolutely fire Shu (Luca actually backs off when you tell him to enough times). Like at this point you need to make a new branch that doesn't even have "Nijisanji EN" in its name since its identity is either tied to male drama or it's tied to Pomu.

First play is unironically make Riku the fall guy, have him do a heel turn. Literally, have all the blame shoved onto him to have the narrative changed from the vtubers + the company + the CEO is bad to just the CEO is bad. Second step is make a big public showing of physically sending all the vtubers their play buttons.
With just these two things, you dont have to change anything else. They will still be getting 2 percent, they still wont have 3D, their concerts will still not happen but it would be such a big positive PR push that the rank and file deluded Niji fan will post it being "Nijisanji good, actually!" evidence for 2 or 3 years which will buy you time and bring back old jaded Niji defenders and some fence sitters.
I dont think the branch can be saved ultimately but you can for sure milk more out of it.
