Previously, the more cynical anons argued that there could be some desperate 1views and 2views who'd sign up with Niji for one year, then redirect whatever fanbase they collected to their PL.
Except now we know that there's a graduation queue, so "1 year of Niji hell" may translate to 1-and-a-half or even 2 years. And you can't do side content on your non-Niji account because their contract forbids it. AND you can't wipe your ass with the contract because they'll withhold twelve months of pay if you get yourself terminated because of contract violations. AND the fanbase bonus is moot now that NijiEn doesn't even promote their newer waves. So the only people who are willing to apply must be:
>Desperate 1views and 2views
>Willing to slave for a black company for more than year
>Doesn't care about their finances
>Willing to gamble for a fanbase that might not even materialize

They're still gonna find some dumb fucking whore or aspiring discord groomer to apply, don't worry.
Even WACTOR who are straight-up criminal still managed to find dumbshit shitforbrain sheep to sign their contracts very late into the imposion of their corp.

Never underestimate how absolutely stupid some people are, especially those who have brainrot from "le i wanna be le popular streamer" aspirations (or want to be able to groom girls). And ESPECIALLY if they're a dumb fucking whore who is literally allergic to reading contracts or interacting with lawyers.

And that's assuming they even know what a black corp it is. Between pasty-white normalfag vermin who never watched anime (Kyo) and the ESL la creatura mutt abominations who barely speak English (Kotoka/Meloco), I'd even say the likelihood that one of them just doesn't know about the controversy to begin with is not entirely unlikely.

Also, if all else fail, Elira can just farm some more of her discord friends by bribing them with management perks.

You can jump from a no name indie that has been streaming for more than 2 years to an audience of less than 20 people, to an audience between 400-3k depending on if you are actually fun to watch.

I'm sure that most people would jump at the opportunity, even low tier nijiEN vtubers make enough money to be able to live alone in Canada or USA, imagine if you live in some third world country, and you get paid the same as a doctor in your country for acting like an anime girl or boy and just play games and talk about your day, working less than 3 hours a day.

Besides, it doesn't matter how popular you were in NijiEN, once you leave and badmouth them you get more popular, and you can milk the drama for some good money, see Sayu she was a 300-500 CCV vtuber in NijiEN, now she is getting around 1.5-2k CCV

Until they eventually figure that out and worsen the contract.
The bad part about contract signing is that what is not enforceable simply leads to termination of it. It's the answer to every problem, to null and void it and then fuck with you in other ways.

Still a good deal for someone that didn't go to college/university, or someone with zero job experience or contacts. There's a reason people apply even for no name companies like idol, EIEN, kawaii, PixelLink, PRISM, V-dere, V4Mirai, Phase Connect and others.

I mean, sure you will never be as rich or popular as some hololive vtuber, but you will be more popular and rich than someone from a small corpo listened before that does vtubing because it is their hobby or working as a wageslave job 8 hours, 6 days a week, if you join NijiEN.

100% viable and is the common practice for any corporation, you just keep the key workers by paying them a little more or giving them fake titles or power, like most people working in a fast food franchise don't last longer than a year, there are some industries that don't even do that and just change everyone after a few years like IT, when people with more experience or older people actually are wanted less.

Not exactly.
She actually ended up on par with or lower than her pre-niji numbers due to that scorched earth bullshit. It took over 1000 hours of raw stream time over just two months for her to build up anything resembling a reputation or solid ccv again. (this is actually including the sleep time during subathon. She seriously was going for 14+ hours each day, but they killed her ccv for those months so just look at the follower increase instead)

Yeah, but compare it to the spike from after her termination. She's actually growing even a month after the drama wore off. And this doesn't even count her youtube viewership, which adds another 2-4 finanas each stream ever since I think december. And you can tell they're active viewers because whenever she does a twitch only stream, they tend to migrate temporarily.

It is. If you make it big, you can coast as long as you keep it up, but actually getting to those levels requires an insane amount of work to the point where most people would cringe at even the thought of spending 20 hours a day filming and editing videos and researching content. Even IF you put in the work, you're not guaranteed shit and you have to make the most of any lucky break you might get. SmallAnt is a fun example I like to use because he used to be a 2view streamer for over 5 years until he spent a month or two diving into nothing but how to grow his channel and went on an insane campaign to make the most viral video game content he can just out of super mario odyssey. Now he regularly streams fucking speedrunning bullshit for 10+ hours to over 6k people and all of his uploads have the potential to hit a million views. His roommates have come in basically saying how no human being should ever have to be forced to put in the insane fucking hours he did to force his way into the algorithm.

Fuck no they don't. The earlier waves did, but in the latest wave we have one girl who's made a grand total of ~$5.5k for SC in total in 3 months (less than $2k of which she actually gets) and another ~$4.2k ($1.5k likewise). That is, once again, over THREE MONTHS and counting. I don't know about you but that doesn't sound to me like a decent wage for NA standards. And with their SL similarly barren, their memberships paltry, and their general merch drops nonexistent, I doubt they actually end up with much more in the end.

Some people might be desperate enough to put up with it. We've heard a lot of horror stories about Niji recently, but out of the two hundred something people in the corpo, most of them probably haven't had any really awful experiences. However, that might also mean that you're not getting much out of the slave contract. NijiJP has more 2views than success stories, and I doubt ANYCOLOR is giving them managers and ad opportunities.

They can withhold 12 months of pay but that just means that when you quit you're giving up any revenue that hasn't yet been paid out. They can invoice you for whatever number their $8/hr intern comes up with but you can use the bill to wipe your ass for as much as it matters. If you're living in a first world country outside of Japan, the court in your country would laugh at them if they tried to sue.
If you're an intelligent actor looking at all this and wanted to figure out how to get the most benefit out of this stygian black company, you go in with the full intention of breaking contract. Don't rock the boat with your local clique, don't give ANYONE there actionable info against you (not even over voice chat), follow the directives given to you. Downplay your intelligence or you might get filtered on auditions. When you're satisfied with the views and fanbase you've developed or just can't stand the shit org anymore, ghost them. Maybe if you're feeling extra generous, let them know you're done before you stop logging in to your Niji accounts.
Come back as a new vtuber, vaguepost about how you saw things that made you realize you HAD to leave, get free publicity, laugh at the ESL staffers sending you angry emails. Bonus points if you screenshot everything you have access to for potential leaks later.
This is still only worth it to someone languishing as a 1-2view and has been for awhile. If you can't foresee yourself boosting past your current numbers within a year and a half, this seems like an option if you have the balls to do it.

Right now to outsiders it'd be easy to paint her as a slandering menhera who broke down after being called out for a rape joke or whatever. It wouldn't hold up to any kind of proof, but PR isn't always about who's right most of the time, just who's louder.

From the many hundreds of hours I've spent on watching /lig/s some things that can be said for sure are:
- they like to 'vibe', 'feel good', etc, understandable
- if they're vibing with the person they don't really care how controversial or shitty the person is
- they're more drama-resilient than corpos
- as long as something doesn't kill the vibe they don't care about it
- the cliques are real, some are way more open-minded than others

It is a two-way road:
1. Some of them won't care about nijidrama and WILL hang out with Kyo
2. Some of them won't care about nijidrama and WILL hang out with Sayu/Doki

So are you saying if you're a vtuber pulling 1 Finana joining can be profitable?, it seems too risky if the corpo mandates you to collab with the clique your rep can be damaged forever even after leaving.

Just ask Kunai if she's profitable. She's doing more than 1 Finana every stream despite having the fastest record for 3view any% speedrun

I dunno man, how are people still supporting them as fans? People are stupid and do stupid things, and then they get all butthurt and weepy when it bites them in the ass.

Didn't some members start with actual laptops? Hell, Polka's infamous poltato PC is also a popular meme among the fandom
