Onwards to her 10th year anniversary, provided that her body allows her to do so.
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964706049212240212Check out the merch before you go to bed. She's obviously talking to you sleeptomo!
◝(•̀ㅂ•́)◟
>>104294058And buy a voice pack you might have missed previously with this 8% off code!
https://x.com/mc1242/status/1964715155243352454Sora's appearing on VR radio show again next week!https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964733459626356918And she's off to bed after working on promoting her merch!
>$200 just for the hoodies-sorry Sora, I'm a poorfag
Can't afford the merch. Man.
Tariffs prevent me from buying the merch
>>104296702>>104296913It sucks since it's been long requested. I want to walk the walk but $200...
>>104296959Think what bugs me and I understand what I'm about to spout is some eyerolling nonesense. I consider 8 to be a very lucky number. Its a number I find a lot of confidence in it for some personal reasons. I'm happy Sora is now into her 8th year and I wanted to at least have a physical symbol of that.We got some time. I'd like to get the whole set if possible for her signature, though.
>>104296702The shipping and tariff is what kills it.
>>104296702>I have to pay double the amount because taxes and tariff.Oh man, it is hard to be an american tomo
That jazzy Dancing Reed was really something
>>104297467Can’t you ask a JPtomo to help you with the merch?
>>104300253Technically you don't need that. You can use proxies and store them in a warehouse to a certain amount of time. Though the Hololive store is notoriously difficult to set this up for in my opinion.
chou denpa peace
>>104300301The goods are going out on march, so who knows what's going to happen?But I think you can set up more than 1 addresses in the Hololive storeIf you have a forwarding service with an address, you should be able to send it thereThey will hold the package for a a couple months beyond marchThe one I use (forward2me) hold the package one month for free and then it add a fixed fee each day for the next month. After the second month, they supposedly discard the package.You pay only when you ship, storage fees and shipment, and repacking if you asked to merge other packages in a single shipment.I pay duties (EU) when it gets over here. I don't know how it is for the USYou set the values of the goods (to set lower taxes) but I they might ask for an invoice, we'll see
>>104300253I am using a forwarder that allows undervalue. This has worked for me before without issues. I have to note that I am not from the US but I got screwed because of the tariffs too because my country is so useless that they have to pass everything through US.
>>104302561I do this, also not US. The trick is to not lower it to a stupid implausibly low value that would raise eyebrows and draw scrutiny. Moronic low IQ shits from shitty countries did this so much that zenmarket stopped allowing the altering of values because tards were sending things worth tens of thousands and saying they were worth like 50 yen and the authorities noticed. Retards. Just don't be dumb about it and it'll be to your advantage.
>>104302561Hope it works out. Support her! I'll try to save up and get the LE down the road.
>>104292662Sodachan
>>104304925The LE will probably last a week at least. Sora's LE don't sell out within 1min and this is a relatively costly set AND yanks will be more reluctant because of the bullshit fees they now have to pay. Basically, you have more time than usual.
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964838958493560894Todays Konsome, signing session later tonight!https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964839888299479286Goods reminder!https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964841503152562592Sora saw the messages left for her on Yosetti!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaPsBkAkXuQSora talking about literature in that gen 0 stream from a couple of days ago
>>104300253I just got the limited edition one from GeekJack. I might be from a third world country but luckily they have a trade agremeent with Japan so I don't pay taxes.
>>104307393The Limited Edition might take more than a week. We had Hololive anniversary, Gen 0 stuff, the concert in October and now the anniversary merch. ÑI would not be surprised if people are buying just the hoodie.
>>104311680Forgot to mention her album too. Sora is getting a lot of cash this quarter regardless if the anniversary merch sells out.
Sora support!
>>104314139The card has a continuous effect. All Gen 0 members have a buff of +30 attack including Sora herself so her 90 attack turns into 120.
>>104314139This might be the bane for red decks. Sora by herself with 2 energy cards can deal 170 damage.
Oh yeah, I need to see if I have a local card shop, if they have stock, and if anyone plays it
>>104314139Idk much about the Holo TCG but everyone in the comments is saying that the card is busted.
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964924587965305307Don't make Sora cry!
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964925628823871855You'll get kisses if you buy the full set...https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1964926335090090277Okay, Sora knows she's playing too much into it but she really wants you to buy her goods!
>>104317149lol silly Sorachi
>>104316911This looks like she threatens you with thousand cute panch jutsu but don't get fooled it's a legit deadly jutsu
First stack of Sora's 9th year!
⸜(*' ꒳ '* )⸝
Sora love!
>>104315821It’s basically a stage 2 Pokémon that fits with any deck that uses Gen 0 that’s willing to risk a chunk deck space for a universal buffer (for Gen 0 only). Also not bad as an attacker with a two colorless energy attack and the Ankimo mascot card is a free energy
https://x.com/ryo_tono/status/1964941491903910120Cool story, this guy is the composer of Sayonara Blossom btw, it's a good song that's on the rise since Sora picked it for Keep Shinin one-man live
>>104320114>His son watches Sora's streamsPerhaps Sora love is hereditary?
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1965003423243493696https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQLCICnyCHYPulse release event today! Starts in 10 minutes!
Starting!
oh right she's wearing a mask
>>104322159Oh so that's why her mouth tracking is so bad despite doing this at the studio
The lighting's pretty bad...
Sora is so kind picking up that EOP chat asking what she doin in romaji
ah, I can't buy the merch I watch to match with Sora matching with Sora (๑'ᆺ')
The horse racing guy won
>>104322701Was about to post this, it was a nice surprise for her anniversary as it's unusual compared to usual holocheer
That's cute, Sora read one of Edward's messages right before he won
>>104292662Jesus christ Sora is sexy
v(๑ ' ᆺ ' )v cho denpa peace
Just a reminder, but Sora is always watching you
>>104323270I should unplug that webcam, just in case...
I kind of want that hoodie, but, man, $95 plus shipping and tariffs…
Cute Sora posing!
Screenshot taimu, it's also the rare default outfit so make sure you take a lot
>>104323464Especially since she'll be in the black hoodie for most of her streams during the anniversary merch sales period
https://x.com/tokino_sora/status/1965031562426331251
( `･ㅂ･)و
Btw someone on /#/ said there were 22 left for Sora's limited set 2 hours ago
>>104325571If that is true then good for Sora. She has revenue from album, Gen 0 merch, Holo fireworks, and the concert.She is getting money for this quarter.However, if there are 22 left it should have sold out at this point.
>>104323492She'll probably wear it herself while streaming since she's usually the first purchase(๑'ᆺ')
>>104325671Yeah, we have 3 hours after that anon said that. I do not think there are 22 sets left. The LE is gonna take more time to sell out.
Limited edition sold out!
>>104328097Yay! Good job, Sora and 'tomos
>>104328097
>>104328097Huh, I was wrong.Good job everyone and the third world Tomo who bought her set in GeekJack.
>>104325671I do wonder how much of a cut Sora gets from the album and concert
>>104327250She'll get a sample, too.>>104328097Good.>>104329007I'm pleasantly surprised. Thought, because of all the possible reasons already listed by others upthread, that it could be a while.Shouldn't have underestimated soratomo.Every single one of us that bought the caps 2 years ago bought the hoodie too.
>>104330502Not much. Usually music labels take most of the pie after all expenses are paid.Industry standard says 75-85% of the profits go to the label and the rest goes to Sora, along with the royalties.
>>104331123 (me)You can make an estimate with the prices of the concert and the merch with that.Labels make the production, management and promotion so of course they get more profit from the pie.
>>104331123Yup. Other Holos stated that music videos are definite money sinks due to how costly they are, but Sora doesn’t pay a dime to produce them because that is the label’s work. However, her revenue is smaller because Holos get big sololives where a lot of money is going to their pockets.
>>104331457The ones that don't have a label don't get all that much either. A sololive is a MASSIVE money sink. I recall vaguely Towa talking about how she had to use substantial funds, her own, besides the sponsor money and whatever Cover stipend that existed for nurturing performancs I once recall hearing about. Watame said something similar a few years ago after her solo Night Fever where she basically told the watamates afterwards>I'll broke LOL I spent all the money I'd collected till now producing the original songs and for the Zepp Tokyo LiveMemory is fuzzy, but that's about what I can recall.I'd imagine that the girls that fork out for their own show make more money off the show-merch than they ever get back from the actual tickets.This shit is costly, especially if you don't have a record label footing the bill.That's one of the major Pros that Mori listed about being signed up; she can't make her MV's exactly how she'd like, because she's not paying for it, but she is spared the titanic personal expense of paying for a venue for live.
>>104333980Here's more from Mori on the matter:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzQEIRoqnKA(AI cleanup of the youtube auto-generated transcript from the clip)>Yeah, Blu-ray. Let's go! You know, Blu-ray honestly really helps with breaking even with these productions because they barely ever make money. There may be some exceptions for some really exceptional people out there that sell out huge arenas and such, but you know, I remember when I did my solo live—my first one, as a matter of fact—I don't mind talking about it because it was a while ago. I heard kind of the statistics of like, "Is there really money in doing solo lives?" And the answer is not really. You pray that you can almost break even. You pray, right, that you can almost break even, and if you do, that's huge. A lot of it depends on the Blu-ray as well, which is crazy.>I know other talents have talked about solo lives and having to fund it yourself and such. I don't know about that because I've been very privileged to have Universal backing me, which is why I say: Deadbeats, I— I retweeted something that, you know, Fubuki said in English about her live, saying, "Please, please tell Holo that you want to see a second live for Fubuki-senpai, right?" If you want to let Cover know that you want to see solo lives for a talent, you should mention it. It's okay if you mention me, but I think you should also mention other EN girls because I will always have Universal backing me, which I'm super lucky for. Universal says, "You gotta do live shows! She's a musician signed to us. She has to do shows." So you know, definitely try.>And you know, Cover will listen to you guys if you let them know who you want to see have their own solo live. I think it is possible that they could get that, especially after this—now after they see that we've gotten these kinds of results for this show. So, yeah, keep pushing for those. I want Yagoo on the phone right now~.
https://x.com/ryo_tono/status/1964941491903910120>Yesterday at dinner time, my second-year middle school son excitedly said there was a Tokino Sora stream, so he begged to watch it while eating! When I told him, "By the way, your dad writes songs for Tokino Sora," he was like, "Huh?? For real!?" and kept saying thank you over and over lol. My son, who usually has no interest in his dad's work, seems to have had a change of heart Sayonara Blossom songwriter
