What's your biggest schizo rrat? Mine is that Yagoo knew that Aqua's papa was going to get cancelled so he told her to graduate.
>>104059431Every time I say mine in the schizo rrat threads they tell me to leave because it sounds too real/depressing
>>104059483go on i want to feel sad
>>104060463kay.I'm too tired to write it out again so I'll just grab it from the last thread.Dokibird's two suicide attempts were on December 24 and January 17th.The whole night of december 24th was incredibly stressful, and after the heartbreak of seeing the work she poured into supporting the group not only get crushed, but seeing that same group telling her she was a burden to the branch and to graduate, she broke and tried to take her own life after apologizing to the people who worked on the MV, and her own dragoons, telling them to just reupload the video and remember her.After this, she was radio silent for exactly 7 days, returning at 2 AM on december 31st with a picture of a hospital band, saying "Home now. I missed Dokidoge." She was under a mandated 7 day hold after a suicide attempt by the hospital.After that, she was silenced on every single social media platform. At some point (Around Jan 4th iirc?), she started playing a sort of ARG with a few dragoons /here/ who made a little doki general separate from /haha/. They were obsessively searching for any signs of life or communication, and ended up finding out her steam page wasn't private. Once she noticed us, she started changing her steam names to silly things like "USE MY FORTNITE CREATOR CODE" (she didn't have one at the time, only selen did) and then eventually just turning into silly youtube video links like toothless dancing or yoshi singing. She'd change her name, the tiny general would notice and talk about it, and then the next day she'd change it to something else. She did this several times, all the way up until January 17th, when she stopped suddenly.Radio silence for 3 whole days. This likely was again, a mandatory post-suicide hold, but reduced for whatever reason to 3 days exactly.On January 20th, she came back home and immediately got addicted to palworld. Two days later on Jan 22nd, she was done playing palworld. I believe this is when she finally gave up all hopes of coming back or even saying goodbye to the dragoons and started getting serious about wanting out. She waited EXACTLY two weeks from Jan 22nd and on February 5th, she sent Nijisanji her little journal she kept of all of the problems she had at Nijisanji.The rest is history.This one video link potentially could've been the last thing she ever gave to her dragoons.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjsG-QdNKzU
>>104060966damn that is sad. not even really a rrat.glad she's doing okay now.
>>104059431Gura has two kids and wants a third. Cover finally had enough of her constant maternity leave and wouldn't extend her contract anymore. She initially went with the heavy child theming to appeal to (her) kids but went back on it when all the pedos turned up, and she's afraid to shut them down too hard since she's in an awkward spot in her career/life.
>>104061576>Cover finally had enough of her constant maternity leave and wouldn't extend her contract anymore. Highly doubt that. Gura was worth more to Cover as a partially retired-streamer than a retired streamer.
>>104061710Maybe at one point, but after three years that value was declining quickly, and there's no future prospects there. I guess chumbuds would love to tell themselves otherwise but her performance of Saba tells the entire story, her broad appeal is long gone.
>>104061793You don't get it. There is literally no financial incentive to breaking off with her.
>>104060966As the other anon said, I'm not sure this is a rat. I'm just glad she is in a much better place.>>104061710Is somewhat frustrating that we will never know what actually happened behind curtains.
>>104061816>Just keep paying someone who doesn't work a salary!Yeah, I'm sure that'll go over swimingly with investors.>B-but brand value!As mentioned: Declining and rapidly becoming irrelevant. People who weren't already chumbuds barely knew or cared about Gura at all. /vt/ only ever used her to shitpost because chumbuds were always biting bait.She couldn't even pull Aqua numbers on her debut as Saba and she lost most of her viewers midway into the stream because again, most of the modern Hololive audience only knew Gura by reputation and didn't much care for the overtly child-like performance, so their limited interest ended quickly.It's a shame, because imo Gura/Saba has an incredibly good voice and knows how to use it, but that can't carry, not when the competition is so much more steep.
>>104061956>Yeah, I'm sure that'll go over swimingly with investors.Her pay is derived from her earnings for the company.>People who weren't already chumbuds barely knew or cared about Gura at all.So she had loyal fans, got it.
>>104062011>Her pay is derived from her earnings for the companyYeah? No shit. That doesn't mean or imply what you think it does.>She had loyal fans!A group that was increasingly dwindling, yes. Why are you trying to hard to miss the point in every statement and just talk nonsense around it?
>>104059431Yagoo is in the epstein list
>>104061956She is, unironically, an amazing talent. However, her long periods of inactivity did hurt her brand. Not only for new potential fans, but also her existing ones. This damage, added to the current state of vtubing, kinda ensures she won't go back to her former relevancy.However, I wouldn't be surprised if she is content with a much smaller following. I mean, she can't possibly expect the same numbers obtained during the lockdown. And she is not stupid. she should know that every single ex-holo has had a noticeable decline in all their numbers sometime after their debut.With that said, I hope she is happy and wish her the best.
>>104062447Yea, she's doing just fine and seems to be streaming consistently so that's good. Schitzo rrats aside there are countless reasons why she might have quit that are simply to do with anxiety around a growing company and the pressure of managing such a massive fanbase, or just general burnout, or simply wanting to go her own way in her career
Yagoo is part of the Yakuza.
>>104063381The yakuza are irrelevant nowadays anon, SEA and other foreign gangs are taking that place, sadly
What a weak rrrat.
>>104063465>SEA and other foreign gangs are taking that placethat's always been somewhat the case
>>104061956>Declining and rapidly becoming irrelevant.Not how IP at this scale worksAnyone who thinks corporate vtubing is dying are crazy. Otaku culture is always the champion of the niche and the cult. Gura, the IP, appreciates in value.Look at Bubsy.
>>104061576>Cover finally had enough of herDoubt it. Cover has a lot of low performing talents that they're keeping around for almost a decade now. Gura is just like any other "graduates", left for profit thinking they can make more money as an indie. That their indie debuts are all so professionally produced says a lot about how planned all of it were.
Most indie vtubers viewbot above a certain threshold viewbot. Twitch and Youtube both showed that they aren't willing to fix the viewbotting problem so there's no reason to think that anyone would be caught. Recently xqc was talking about how certain companies will offer botting services to mid-range streamers, which would be around 1000-5000 ccv. Now, I don't think that corpo vtubers do it since a company can be held accountable much easier. Plus fishy behavior is easy to see and unfortunately most corpos don't seem like their viewbottingAs for culprits we have the easy examples like, Ironmouse, Zen, Shylily, Bao, Chibidoki. But I think we can add in Froot, Nimi, and Mint
>>104061793I'm fully aware that this spat has gone ever since her debut, but Bijou may have been the final nail in Gura's career (this is also my favorite rrat).
>>104063933I agree. The ones actually botting are inflating everything from CCV, subs, likes, views, to chat while botting corpo VTubers as a smokescreen.Think about it. Corpo VTubers with obvious bots do not get better treatment than their peers.If the company were botting, they would push those talents harder since they already paid.If it is the corpo VTuber botting, their company does not care, so why would they bother paying for bots.
>>104061793Saba is still getting cosplays from japanese and asian cosplayers. that means the mindshare is still strong, and that's very unprecedented for an EN indie. interest towards saba will go up again once the sponsorship deals she's been doing behind the scenes finally come out.
>>104062099I would support this rrat but I don't think he has ever talked to a white person outside of his own company before last years VGAs
>>104064257I'm a pebble and while I firmly believe eve Biboo would never bot herself or that Cover would, I have to say she was the most botted and is literally in every single thing that came out of HoloEN this summer.
RRAT
>>104059431more like "change artist please"aqua say no with that "gonna fight something" quote before announcing graduation
>>104060966Damn bro, that's rough.But she's a fatty, so I can't fully support her.
There is a single unifying rrat that connect the lld, the way Doobie unpersoned nimi and then followed her, the split with kronii, and the vshoujo stuff.
>>104065095I find it odd how these fairly large vtubers how almost 0 cultural impact. I'll be in other spaces unrelated to vtubing yet I'll see people use reaction images of Gura, Coco, or Pippa. I've yet to see one of Zen or Fauna/Nimi
>>104071921Same. Can't support a slow suicide by gluttony
>>104071921Yeah, that would at least three grown men to do.

>>104061956>>Just keep paying someone who doesn't work a salary!>Yeah, I'm sure that'll go over swimingly with investors.they're willing to do it for popular demandGura at least brings in money despite her inactivity
>>104061816It's going to be terrible for talent cohesion and morale if a bunch of people can stream less than once a month and not do the mandatory trips to Japan but still get sponsorships and salary. Not treating people like actual employees with responsibilities is how you get NijiEN
Waiter, these rrats are terrible. I was promised big rrats. Bring me another.
>>104059431Cover was forced to fire Mel only because she did the exact thing they used as an excuse to fire Rushia. She would have just been temporarily suspended or fined if they had not needed to get rid of Rushia.
>>104065095The real question isn’t just whether someone is botted or not but the motivation behind the botting. Honestly I believe the botter whether it is a fan or the VTuber themselves is behind those bots. They are doing it just to create fake examples that have no real purpose and they are also the ones who keep going on about so-called “legit” metrics like like ratios, chat rates and all that stuff which is probably botted too.
>>104061576I believe this rrat
>>104063465This true, the Filipino gangs are taking over all of the Asia region
>>104059431Omega is actually Altare.He made himself the leader of the first Homo EN gen after self inserting as a vtweeter wasn’t enough. His Altare outfit even has hints like the hanging white strap and buckles.The reason he left is because he was removed from decision making abilities and he saw his entire creation (Homo EN) crumble apart.But he’s too egotistical to actually ever leave voluntarily which is why he hasn’t graduated/quit.
>>104088085there have got to be too many people doing it for there to be a clear singular purpose
>>104059431https://files.catbox.moe/585gq0.mp4
>>104094051No... THIS CANNOT BE!
>>104060966>She waited EXACTLY two weeks from Jan 22nd and on February 5th, she sent Nijisanji her little journal she kept of all of the problems she had at Nijisanji.She probably gave her two weeks notice, got told that it was more complicated than that and she couldn’t just quit whenever she wanted, and that’s when she had her lawyer send in the journal/letters. Niji didn’t force her to stay after that and just terminated her.
>>104061956She really fucked herself long term by quiet quitting. If she didn’t like working for cover that’s one thing, but it sucked for her fans and ruined their trust in her.It also doesn’t help that the indie sphere requires a lot of networking to maintain growth and she’s incredibly anti-social even among other autistic streamers. The biggest benefit to working in a company for her was probably just being able to build a rapport with people who weren’t actively competing against her and that were already huge fans of hers. But she squandered even that.
>>104071921Shouldn't you "people" support each other?
