Digital Bug-Chasing in the Vtuber Industry: A Proctor Essay. I think recent events in the vtuber industry really show the importance of maintaining standards in a community, and preserving your reputation. A major issue at the moment derives from an almost bug-chaser like…
I was going to discuss this on stream but I'm hoping that, by posting this here, smarter and/or more informed people than me might start asking/answering questions. There's been an aspect of VShojo's business model that people seem to have mostly glossed over: their status as a…
wifey @uvdotsh and I got access to the recent VShojo pitch deck and some of this stuff is really interesting 😭 tl;dr: - describes gunrun as “most well-connected Twitch staff” - lost ~$2.5m in 2024. - even with aggressive growth they'd still not turn a profit, this includes…
The death of vShojo is basically what happens when the corpse of a humpback whale drifts to the ocean floor and ends up sustaining a vast and diverse ecosystem that springs up overnight to pick it apart and gnaw it down to the bones, until they finally sink into the mud.
Vtubers, what is your view of your model? I notice a lot of vtubers hold their models very dear to their hearts, to where any major changes or even rigging upgrades are no-gos for them, even if they personally find their model is an element holding their growth back. On the…
I was supposed to be apart of a company called Virtux and was going to be in their “space” wave. They went down in December because the CEO was just as scummy as Gunrun is.😬 (I was promised a new outfit and assets after he shit talked Vshojo and Nijisanji in my interview).
Share a piece of Vtuber lore abut yourself Ill go first, My Vtuber model is based off a hentai

Zen blocked me years ago over me joining in on the collective teasing and taunting about this issue. I don't expect Zen to unblock me, but in light of this information, I feel I owe Zen an apology for it. I was wrong, and Zen wasn't at fault.
I have screamed into the void for years that 4chan is a psyop mostly populated by vtubers using the anonymity there to spread lies about their competition. Now Vei comes out and says point-blank that even the CEO OF VSHOJO WAS DOING IT. COMPLETE. TOTAL. VINDICATION.
and so our NDAs are now void why i left VSHOJO - back in 2023, vshojo tried to bully me into one of the most predatory contracts that i have ever seen. when i tried to ask more about it, their COO got extremely hostile with me and refused to answer any of my questions and so i…

He (Gunrun) is lying because on October 11, 2024, VSHOJO issued a press release stating they would donate half of the profits English(Google Translate) prtimes-jp.translate.goog/main/html/rd/p… 日本語(こっちが原文) prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p… #VSHOJO
Reminder that this is the same company Pikamee joined after receiving massive levels of harassment over simply saying she wanted to play HW:L. The same company that didn't punish Froot when she insulted and belittled a crying Silvervale who suffered from the same attacks. Anyone…
JESUS CHRIST Silvervale just talked about the Hogwarts Legacy harrasement. Not only did she receive no support, gunrun called her. During that conversation he said : she was a dissappointment and harmful to the brand and an inconvenience. There truly is no words.
That's right! Our Offkai exclusive items are now live! These wonderful pieces will be available until they're sold out - and we're never restocking them again!!!! EVER! Link for the store is down below!
This is incorrect. The price listed here in the image he shows is for all 4 pillars in Shibuya Station not just 1. It covers 16 "faces" aka panels one for each side of the 4 pillars. The total price for 1 week is 1,3000,000 JPY + a construction fee. So the base advertising fee…
Cdawg pulled the prices for advertising in Shinjuku station, adds that "it would have been nice if instead of advertising we could put that money towards the immune deficiency foundation" 1 pillar (7 days) = 40 million yen => ~270 thousand dollars So that means ALL pillars (7…
Liars will tell you that we don't shed tears because we hate Asians and don't care that Japan murdered millions of them. Realists will tell you we don't shed tears because the overwhelming majority of them were illiterate peasants who never had the ability to write down any of…
We always shed tears for what we did to Japan but not what Japan did to everyone else.
Announcement: Surprise Collab!!! In a few hours, at 10:00 PM EST, I'll be sitting down to have a chat with @AkikoOtaku_VT: the heart and mind behind Oshi Push. We'll be diving into how the game came to be, the inspiration behind the cards and more - all while cracking open a…
I've said it before but if you have like a hundred terms to your commission usage and bring up extra fees for things that should be expected (vtuber asset but doesn't include streaming usage, full res file fee, merchandise design that doesn't include commercial, etc.) I will…
