It's over, bros.https://x.com/harusakinodoka/status/1963769053769560512>I, Nodoka Harusaki, will be leaving Hololive Production at the end of September.>The wonderful talents and staff, as well as the smiles and excitement given to me by everyone who supports Hololive Production, are treasures of my life.>Thank you so much for the approximately four years since I joined as a new graduate…!
>>104213262please get non homo shill this time
i blame the ruffians
So who's going to be in charge of that shill channel she had?
>>104213262WHO????>some fucking jap staff membersorry, my bad for saying WHO, I should have saidWHO gives a FUCK
Good riddance!
>>104213356It's going to be Ollie anonski
>>104213262Axel knocked her up
>>104213356hope the talents and their new outfit is morning news anchor with weather caster side kick
>>104213386I'm for anything that makes Ollie graduate faster.
>>104213262okay I guesskinda forgot about her desu
>>104213262>another managerthey are raping them there
I keep forgetting she exists (or existed now I guess)she's just nothing compared to A-chan
>>104213262This is honestly expected. Her existence was Cover thinking staff members have an audience, but they soon realize that fans love A-chan and ONLY A-chan. Also the HoloAN initiative is just an attempt to revive A-chan's night shows but failed miserably because no one cares, especially when Holo talents themselves like Koyori and Mio did the same shit but to larger audience and arguably much more entertainingAfter this, there won't be a 3rd A-chan because that market left with her, and I think we will soon see Nodoka again but as an indie VTuber if that is what her "rekindle" means
>>104213262literally who
Good run, she lasted longer than expected.how is NuA-chan doing? Is her channel dead now?
>>104213556>fans love A-chan and ONLY A-chanMeanwhile in the real world nuAchan is speedrunning 3 view status because apparently all the people who goon to her old design on this board don't actually watch her.
>>104213262Literal who honestly they tried to have her be A Chans replacement but she couldn’t be replaced in the first place
>>104213556A-chan put in work. She was one of Sora's original 13 viewers. She helped on streams long before she had a model. At least 3 Holos credited her with their decision to not graduate. Meanwhile Nodoka was just given a model day 1 and we were told to love her like we would A-chan. What was her biggest accomplishment, flirting with Axel?
>>104213653Almost like the model actually matters retard
What's with the amount of seething faggots in this thread lol
is everything good holobros
>>104213262Im calling it now, there's going to be another wave of graduations soon or early next year >inb4: PHASED, 2 weeks, KYS nijisister, etc
>>104213653I enjoy her streams, they are on the short side but they are fun and she's cute.Fuck you, I'm having fun.
>>104213653Holy shit those numbers post debut video
>>104213713After the LLD and V-Shojo, graduationbegging feels so cold.
Holo exodus back on?
>>104213262The desensitization to this shit is kinda funny
>>104213415BA SE D
>>104213262Kinda grim that the Hololive account hasn't even retweeted it
>>104213662those 13 viewers didn't include staff and staff families. a-chan is not one of the 13.
>>104213843I mean...shit, A-chan was sad and all but that was because she was there from day one and could be credited with a lot of Hololive's successesNodoka...was just there. It would be like if Henma or Gem-chan graduated.
>>104213262So is this why fubuki cancelled that one stream a while ago?
>>104213262Who the fuck cares, she is just a company woman who shills shit. Its the same as the shamwow guy graduating
>>104213653>Meanwhile in the real world nuAchan has an audience large enough to make streaming a careerwow it's over
I always wondered what the point of a news channel you have to physically go to was.
>>104213904I would be sad for Biboo if gem-chan left because she seems like a great manager
>>104213713Yeah a lot of Homo are leaving after the 3D live
>>104213262What did she do again?
Awesome, holo graduation queue is back on.
>>104213713yeah homo graduations
>>104213360Fuck Off cuckling
>>104213556Nodoka had potential and was sweetThe holobox wouldve carried her but HoloAN came way too late Who knows if she even wanted to stream regularly but if she goes that route i could see her getting some love
>>104213262Perhaps her position isn't a one person job and they need more staff for it
>>104213387>unikek melty over office workers The absolute state
I think with HoloPlus more or less flopping, which was her big project, she likely was pressured to leave
>>104213843It's just staff, and unlike A-chan Nodoka never made an effort to appeal to the international or local fans nor did she appear particularly close to the talent. Yes, if you weren't a newfag you'd know that A-chan even did English-only streams for us and actively got better at English, unlike Nodoka who besides the great design is just kinda there and no one talks anything about her ever.
>>104213262Okay? She was always just a staff member. It's like a twitter account manager quitting. I think the most she was known for was Vesper being a faggot and starting ship shit with her and Axel like a douche.
>>104213262Probably got confident with hosting streams and thinks she can go indie. How long do you think it'll take for her to redebut? I say around a month.
>>104213262Its that time of the year, huh? Who else isn't renewing their contract?
why didn't you save her?
>>104214301Axel tainted her career
>>104213262Black company takes yet another victim. Holodrones once again rearing their ugly head bashing anyone who departs.
>>104213262Thank you for everything.
>>104213653fans loved a-chan, not yubari reijust like fans loved fauna, not nimi
>>104214289>anon thinks she wants to be a regular chuuba
This shit started with what Hololive did with A-chan.A-chan was loved by the community and by the fans. Then Cover took advantage of that and started having her stream, always behind a paywall.Like I’m not buying a membership to any member just to have access to their main streams, so I’m sure as fuck not going to do so for the secretary’s streams.I’m sure Cover, being the 70 year old retarded, fax machine executives that they are, probably asked too much of her and drastically changed what the job required of her.I hope she finds success or a good husband (me) after this.
>>104214209>>>>104214279>>104214391
>>104214439Also fans loved A-chan is small doses, like some random appearance on Hologra or something I don't know what she smoked to try and become a V-Tuber
>>104213653The point was that fans love A-Chan. Only A-Chan, not her RM. Well, the RM gets a fair share of love, too, but a big part of it came from being Hololive's A-Chan and a long history of being friends, standing with members and having access to inside stories.Her RM on her own with little to no connection to Hololive in her content? Yeah, I still like her as a person, but not enough to watch her.
>>104213262>A-chan leaves>A-chan Jr. also leaves, before she can even really be an A-chanSo how's everyone feeling about Public Cover
>>104214279She wasn't "just" a staff member, she was a member playing a staff member made in a lab to replace A-chan, who was staff that became a member, but looks like it didn't worked out for them
>>104213309>>104213387>>104214045>>104214148
>>104213262>Before joining the company, I had given up on many things. It was Hololive Production that rekindled the light within me. Amid the whirlwind of days that followed, I felt many wonderful things I had lost returned to meDamn, Hololive saves even staffs, huh?
>>104214671That's unironically the problem, the girls find hospice, meet wonderful people, and once they're recovered from their past trauma, they leaveCover should harass them, how come Niji doesn't have any staff leaving?
I liked her, she seemed nice. Don't know what's with all the hate people calling her a homo promoter, that's her job to promote all the talents for the company she works for. Either way, it's sad to see her go and it's been, what near 2 years since A Chan left?
>>104213262hololive is getting more faceless everyday
melanin-enriched company
>Shinove leaves, things get worse for Holostars>A-chan leaves, things get worse for Hololive>Nodoka leaves, things get worse for ?
>>104214768>what near 2 years since A Chan left?Nah A-Chan left last year
>>104213262So does that mean I'm getting my Holo no Koshikake Radio back?Asakoyo is nice and all but I liked the monthly format, stream timeslot and A-chan's newscaster voice more
>>104214768A-Chan barely interacted with or shilled homos beyond what was required (JP or EN), though. Nodoka should have put her foot down when Axel tried to approach her instead of flirting with him
>>104213653Bugs do not watch ex corpo
>>104213262Axel tried to get in her pants, right?
>>104214824Holostars EN. Expect a hopefully big wave of graduations from homoEN soon when Cover decides to stop giving them welfare from the girls' contributions
>>104214949Yeah, and sadly that will be the only thing many EN fans remember her for
>>104213653She zatsudan a lot and rarely do games, a total opposite of en. Perhaps her hardware and funds is lacking
>>104213914That was because of Mel
>>104214502glad someone else is calling out how they tried to make a-chan a paywall princess, don't see this criticism enough.
>>104214949No, Vesper was the one who outed Axel as a fan of Nodoka, fans proceeded to do what fans do best and wouldn't shut up about it and drove it into the ground.
>have to do actual work>also need to play pretend but you don't get any of the benefits that real talent contracts haveThere's literally no one replacing this role because it's fucking shit, and cover was likely doubling up work for the A-chan/Nodoka company mascot role without fair compensation. Imagine needing to sit through endless meetings and not being able to go home because you have to do mocap and voice over for shit as overtime
>>104214045Nah they won't. It's not like their indie career would be better than corpo salary
>>104213653Tbf that interview she did while "claiming" she was a corporate slave in her previous job (albeit jokingly, might add) probably impacted her negatively since it drove the attention to some dramafags and tribalists along the way, those faggots were never going to stick around to begin with.That, and >>104215001, it's a work in progress.
>>104214924This could be true. But like I said, it was her job. A Chan no doubt had more say with her being in hololive first with Sora. But Harusaki was still someone who represented Holo and at the end of the day it was her job and what she was probably told to do. The Axel thing I don't know much about but it's not like they were fucking on stream. Give the girl a break, she's leaving now anyway and I wouldnt be surprised if she's already taken, she is staff after all not a Holo Idol.
>>104214955She had like a grand total of 2 interactions with Holostars, two years ago. Her leaving has 0 effect on them
>>104214301I believe she exist to replace achan
>>104213653She is not as EOP friendly as A-chan was
>>104213262>approximately four years since i joinedWTF? FUCKING CLOCKS HOW DO THEY WORK
Would it be possible for Cover to disolve, and create Cover and Hololive 2.0, smaller company able to keep things tight?
>>104215161They can join FSP
>>104215573Not really. Any funds that would be used to create that new 2.0 would have to be given to investors since you can't just say that you're closing the doors since we don't want the executives muddling with it anymore. Depending on how their non-compete clauses work in Japan, it could probably be possible if a group of talents decided to form a new company, but it would have to look like a coincidence or someone would definitely get their ass eaten for poaching.
>>104214733>how come Niji doesn't have any staff leaving?Have you been living under a rock?
>>104215573it's going to be like every time they attempt to reset the Hololive Minecraft server; it's going to be fun at the first days, then gets too huge eventually and it becomes unfun. Hololive 2 might bring back the SOVL current Hololive is lacking, but they will fall into the same pitfall that Hololive 1 went into. so yeah it will always be a vicious cycle.
>>104213262FUCK
>>104213262I legit forgot Nodoka existed. Wtf did she even do there after A-chan left??
>>104216099Took over as the "Additional Voices" person in HoloGra
>>104215573Large majority of members want Hololive to be big since it opens a lot of doors for opportunities. Like, if you just want to "keep things tight" and to avoid all the hassle that comes with being part of a big organization, might as well graduate and become indies.
>>104215887>>104216136Just fire everyone working on Holo Earth, ID, and the Homos.
>streamed announcements every Friday>hurr I forgot she existedsure Jan
>4 yearsfuck i still remember when she first joined
>>104216164Do you know where you are, anon? Current /vt/ is filled with EOPs (understandably) and good chance is that most people don’t watch JP streams outside of special events (i.e concerts, fes, graduation)
>>104213262>OverNot really, sounds like she wants to be a talent rather than staff. A-chan probably had the same epiphany. They probably saw how much Miko, Pekora, Marine, etc. are making and thought shit, I should be doing that instead.
>>104213262lmao she wants in on the vtuber grift too
>>104216164Where are these "weekly" announcement streams? I checked the Hololive channel and there's only been 2 in the last 2 months. Also like that other anon said, I don't understand JP so I'm not gonna watch a JP news streams
i didnt get attached too much to Nodoka. her design and stream persona is just too generic. her predecessor A-chan's design was just too sex and memorable
>>104213262B-chan...
>>104216369I mean I can’t blame her.If she is going to be forced to do the job of a vtuber, might as well get the actual pay and perks of being a vtuber.Instead of being a salaried virtual secretary.
>>104213262black company vibes
>>104214439holofaggots really are just fake fags who just hang around the company cause it's big.
>>104213262Who?
>>104213262I completely forgot about her
>>104213477Hot
>>104213743for streams that short, they are no where near bad, especially for an indie lol
>>104216403How new are you?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-kQrU8JuzY
>>104216568i only watch HoloEN so i dont know who these literal whos are.
>>104216592>i only watch HoloENJust say "I'm a dumbass" next time it's faster
>>104213653That's good for an indie tho
>>104216612you move those goalposts, girlfran
>>104216568Like I said, I don't watch JP so I had no idea that channel even existed
>>104214608This is truly a post of all time, in time it is a true post of the time which this is a true timely post
>>104216592>>104216690Why watch Holo if you don't even watch the good ones?It's like visiting Italy and eating nothing but hot dogs
>>104216988I don't understand JP, I understand EN. I watch the ones I can actually understand and translated clips of the ones I can't. What's so hard to understand about that?
>>104217016Your JP reps anon
>>104217043I will not learn an entire language just to watch some streamers
>>104217079Why not? It would probably make you happier.
>>104217079Skill issue
>>104213262>holo staff member leaves that the usual turnover rate for this company>has to do a whole song and dance graduation type thingReally don't get why they even put staff in the spotlight this hard when they're constantly in and out the door.It worked for A-chan but all these other managers they keep shilling come off as weird.
>>104217079literally anyone can learn japanese in 1 yearit's been proven already just check /djt/
>A-chan>Shinove>the latest right-hand personFunny how the people working closest with Yagoo are the ones who leave. But everything is fine because the talents say Yagoo best girl, even though they are so distant from the dude that Yagoo didn't even know Bae could speak Japanese until a few months ago, and that's only one example.
>>104213262won't be the last, more to come, now begins yagoo's nightmare.
>>104213262Axel and Nadoka finally getting married!
>>104217183The 70 year old fax machine using executives and Yagoo have a knack for bad ideas. Wait until you hear about this app they’ve been working on for the last 3 years called Holoearth.
>>104213262So when do you think the Debut as indie is
>>104217183> they're constantly in and out the doorCover's turnover rate was around 10% by the end of 2024. That’s pretty low for a company of their size (or just pretty low in general), and there is nothing wrong with announcing her departure when she has been the one in charge of interacting with fans for years, anonAt least her statement is enough to kill all possible "she hated being there" or "black corpo" rrat
>Top talents leaving>>L-lazy whores!>Co-Founder of Hololive>>A-chan did nothing!>Last "fun" manager and extremely interactive assistant leaves>>W-who?>All to re-debut later without corpo leash Holodrones running out of excuses
>>104213262Ah well, 4 years is a long time in the online content industry. Glad she was here
What's gonna happen to my draw 3???
>>104217768>Gee holocards, how come your pot of greed lets you draw three cards?
>>104217794>I can only play 1 card of this type a turn :^)
>>104217749Who said A-chan did nothing? Even in this thread people were talking about stuff A-chan did and why they liked her.
>>104217768
>>104213262>Before joining the company, I had given up on many things. It was Hololive Production that rekindled the light within me. Amid the whirlwind of days that followed, I felt many wonderful feelings I had lost return to me. In time, I was able to face myself more honestly, which ultimately led me to this decision>I considered continuing to work while reflecting on my future, but with my heart turned in another direction, I felt it would be deeply insincere to the staff, the talent, and all of you who watchFixing them is a mistake, Yagoo...
>>104213262Dude why didn’t you say “it’s nodokover”You’re a disgrace
>>104217843He is creating a scenario for his next shitposts
>>104217749And yet you're not watching them either.You're just using them for your gay /lig/ger crusade.
>>104213262Black company
https://www.reddit.com/r/Hololive/comments/1n8rrnf/staff_member_harusaki_nodoka_is_leaving_at_the/?sort=controversial>all those axel jokes getting downvoted below thresholdSeriously?
>>104216485>corpodrones are corpodronesWater is wet, news at 11. There's a good chunk of faggots whose oshi is the corpo, not the streamers.
>>104218829it's a joke that already ran its course years ago. only secondaries still use that
>>104218900But redditors and you guys still make TMT jokes for Towa and shotacon jokes for Suisei even though those are also old memes
>>104218386Black companies don't tend to let workers leave this easily
>>104213262>Axel cumdump is leavingSo?
>>104219075just ask Saba why they delayed the Myth 3D live for a whole year
Thought Nijisisters were ruthless to their own, but this thread shows that Holofans aren't much better.
>>104217733>Cover's turnover rate was around 10% by the end of 2024. That’s pretty low for a company of their sizeThe EN graduation rate is 25% and the idea of Hololive is that it was the golden ticket for vtubers. They could be famous characters that would be around for many years but an increasing number of them have left to be indie vtubers. Cover is either incompetent in that talents have zero faith in management and/or they really hate the direction of the company.
>>104218941last time i checked we don't do TMT jokes anymore.
>>104214209How is that a fucking melty?Congratulations to them both if true
>>104213262Ship is sinking. There will be a new graduation wave next. This time from JP.
>>104214439It's okay because Nimi hate her fans in Holo too.Now she can groom her fans to be what she like them to be.,
>>104219725Here's the twist: she's actually getting married to him, which is why she's stepping down
>>104219538I didn't hear anyone from jp complaining lately.
>'people' making up shit for shitposts>EOPs acting like Nodoka was no onejust the usual it's sad, she had big shoes to fill and for fans she won't be as beloved as A-chan, but she did a lot if you actually paid attention, while I don't think it's as bleak as this anon says, I can see this happening >>104215148,not an enviable position if you think about how corpos work usually
>>104213262An animated management assistant switching jobs gets 10x as much traction as da Wose graduating...
>>104213262giving staff a model was a mistake
Gen 5 should be hot secretaries
>>104213415basado
>>104216485Achan has genuine vibe, a hard working woman. Nchan has fake vibe of someone hired as eyecandy
>>104213356Aoi Yuki will be joining as the first flesh vtuber.
>>104215148>"also need to play pretend but you don't get any of the benefits that real talent contracts have"Literally nowhere it's really stated how much she's getting from her job. You don't know her wage and if she's getting some extra from being a part-time vtuber.You're just saying things out from your ass and making statement like this.
>>104213262What?No, literally, what was the point? Why all that effort in making her an entity with public image in the first place if she's going to leave?This is such a bad PR look.
>>104215031It was absolutely wild to me.Like you’re a side character and you want me to pay $10 a month to watch ANY of your streams? It actually made me a little bitter towards A-chan. Like she had gotten a big ego and now was going to milk fans for what should’ve been free official Holo channel content.
>>104221699>No, literally, what was the point? Why all that effort in making her an entity with public image in the first place if she's going to leave?Like.. working? What are you even asking really? lmao
>>104221699You're expecting them to enter indentured servitude when they sign up? She's been there for years.
>>104219765If that’s actually the case, good job to him, really. I can’t even be mad, game has to respect game
>>104216164No matter how little Achan streamed I never forgot about her because she had a personality. Nodoka was a waste of space.
>>104213262Can they stop with this "manager talent" shit already? A-chan was lightning in a bottle, it didn't work with Omega, it didn't work with Nodoka, and it didn't even really work with A-chan anymore at the very end. The time when an "A-chan" was necessary to bridge the gap between JP and EN has long since passed.
>>104213262Time for a comeback.
>>104213262I miss A-chan. There would be no Hololive without her.Her departure preceded other talents leaving because of the new direction in management.Those staying say that it is no longer like before, and that is a shame.
>>104213262thought this was someone from the newest gens but it's just some staff member?who gives a shit
>>104213653The new design sucks. I feel nothing looking at it. Old A-chan was peak simplicity perfection.
>>104213343they were just defending what should have been theirs
>>104217427Useless language. In 10 years 95% of the world will speak english exclusively.
>>104213262Another indie vtuber that will flop.
I dunno, this one reads more like she's just getting married and moving on in her life from being a cartoon women for losers to watch
I wonder if this was a deliberate (bad) decision by Cover, like when Blizzard kicked Ghostcrawler out
>>104226062it's a decision by Ikko Fukuda who wants to be the main character of hololive
>>104213309FPBP
>>104225377just like A-chan's did, but look how that turned out
>>104213262Axel’s cocksleeve left? No great loss.
>>104213556I liked her but she homoshilled too hard so I pretended she didn’t exist.
>>104214045Cockroaches don’t just choose to leave. Homos will never leave unless they’re retarded like vesper/magni. Think it’s pretty clear that these faggots won’t have near the shit fanbase they have now after they leave.
>>104214209I think it’s funny to reduce all of her input, accomplishments, and moments and reduce her all the way down to a homoshilling cock sleeve. Simple as.
>>104214949Yes that’s all she’s known for or ever really done. Failed faggit promotion comfort woman.
>>104215188Smh you aren’t thinking petty enough. Anyone leaving who is even slightly charitable to the stars, even if it’s their job, is a good thing. One less public persona that might say a nice thing about them or promote them. You aren’t ready yet.
>>104213309fpbp
It was nice having two cute girls representing Cover staff on stream, it made interactions with the talents seem more pleasant. Now staff is just going be a cold faceless entity.
>>104217749It’s so sad that ligger contrarians have to come into these threads and make up enemies like this over stray comments. At the end of the day it’s whatever makes you happy, little Timmy. You owned the corpo drones today, yes you did!
>>104218941People actually like those talents. Faggot shill
>>104217183they have like 800 employees and only a-chan and nodoka have had a public facing role and character design
>>104226179Oh God why did you had to remind me of that gigafaggot.As soon as Suda steps out we're toast.
>>104213262Black company.
>>104213262She's in the new Nijisanji wave.
