Pardon me, friends. I saw this come across my timeline and I was wondering if it was a real representation of what happened or if anti-idol faggots are just being faggots again and trying to twist things to suit their narrative.https://x.com/animetrends/status/2085706542414798946
>>113994573>animetrendsPlease stop reading that account. It's just clickbait. Ririka never once said the word idol. They just added it to get engagement from both sides.She said that if chat would like to know if and when she got married. Also, if she did get married she wouldn't stop streaming/being Ririka. ReGLOSS isn't an idol group, Cover considers them a music group. Besides, who cares if Ririka gets married. She's already mentioned ex-boyfriends before.

>>114202288She talked about it a bit in her previous member stream. Management pretty much screwed her over with work around the time and during Vsai. The amount of work, being sick, the way management acted, trying to learn a new character/practice for Vsai and losing all her matches stressed her out mentally that she's taking an unofficial break.

Cover is way to protective of their brand and I wouldn't doubt that they already looked into him and his show. They probably already told Aki she could acknowledge it, but can't talk about it due to "adult circumstances" like the Monster Hunter mod.

>>114202683Management screwing her over? Sounds like a day that ends in "day". And that's not touching on word that Aki was basically a last minute substitute for someone.Also kinda tucked that for all they pile on her at times it's scarcely anything with publicity or sizable paychecks
>>114224536She was sick the week before and week of Vsai and still practiced and was learning a new character, plus did the mahjong tournament. All go a sudden they told her she had to work to do and when she told them she had to stream(practice and scrims) they said streaming isn't important and it wasn't her job. So she did the work and Vsai stuff all while she was sick. She also said that she thinks they can do that to her because "she doesn't complain" "she doesn't get mad so it's ok". It wasn't her personal manager, but someone from the office. Chat told her to file a complaint with the higher ups and Yagoo. I read that apparently a lot of the new management in the office is from the TV industry, so it makes sense they're acting that way.

They went back to their characters once the tournament ended.
Roboco did it. They finished in under two hours.
>>114225317>streaming isn't important and it wasn't her job.Do these clowns even know what a vtuber is or what company they're working at?I really hope she talks with Yagoo about this.
>>114229548Someone brought up in the shareholders call why everyone is streaming less in general. They said they would work on it by finding ways to help talents balance work and streaming.
Aki mentioned her debut in America.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ6P4YIlV4Y&t=3522s
>>114229674I guess it's wait and see then...It honestly feels more like streams have become shorter rather than less streams overall. Might also just be due to lack of big collabs though.
>>114229548Streams do account for mindscape presence (considering bow AZKi basically exploded once she started streaming in a real way and inversely Iroha had a slow start due to how little she did so early on)Also thinking on it, why just Aki? (Koyori's streaming isn't affected for one)
>>114229548Regular streaming has never been the job of the talents from Cover's perspective, so they do know what company they're working at.
Choco, this only works if you show the heights on screen...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czcQTA5ELzA
>>114233264From what I've seen, Aki had 2 tournaments at the same time over the last months which means practice on and off-stream while also having to deal with other projects. And then someone in management decided to cramp in their own stuff too.Management decided their stuff is more important I guess. Weren't they already told off some years ago for trying to push their own projects instead of supporting the Holomembers?
>>114235093I imagine it's a repeated issue. One of the things I read when Chloe was quitting was she worked with management before to lighten her workload only for them to spin around and say "Now that your calendar's open could you take on all this stuff?"
>>114234069Yeah streaming is up to the Holomembers themselves. But pretty much all of them stream as much as they can (or want). And management telling them streaming isn't important just so they can cramp in their own projects when the schedule is already full is just a dickmove.
>>114233264>Also thinking on it, why just Aki?Aki was told that by someone in the office because they suddenly booked her for work, even though she had told her manager and management knew she was going to be in vasi and had to practice.>(Koyori's streaming isn't affected for one)I don't watch her, but to me it does seem like it's less than what it was before.>>114234069Maybe it wasn't officially when Hololive started, but that changed years ago. It's just that some of the new management at the office is apparently from the TV industry and they're acting like it's the same.
>>114235263Well, apparently it's some new guys in management >>114235267Haven't watched a lot Chloe so I can't really say much about her. The thing I remember was that she had health problems and heavy workloads.

Though I suspect they wanted her to be HoloX's big musical star as La+ lost any interest after her massive hiatus (though I wouldn't be surprised if the work she had helped cause the hiatus initially)>>114235264It's also a financial blow to talents like Aki who barely gets any promos/etc, thus has to lean on streaming more than almost any other JP member. And this in turn makes it hard to make money let alone make a MV (which seems to be the main way for a song to get traction)>>114235267There is a slight but noticeable dip in her stream frequency but at the same time we do see payoff for it (promos, MVs, etc). Aki in contrast, for all the work she seems stuck with has little return (I do think that other than Fubuki and sometimes Matsuri, some in Cover want gen 1 to vanish due to being proof of the suits dropping the ball, but lack good enough reasons to do so... unlike StarsJP)And odds are such suit jackassery will cause 1-2 graduations (besides Chloe, I suspect the notions of more "work" may have influence Aqua and Shion to quit as well. There's also the implication Mumei was being overworked among others)>>114235583Yep and that she was made to work in mornings (wasn't much of a morning person). I mentioned more on her earlier in this. I will say this, I doubt they would do that to Suisei (more or less an ideal talent in that she brings musical prestige)
>>114241326>I do think that other than Fubuki and sometimes Matsuri, some in Cover want gen 1 to vanish due to being proof of the suits dropping the ball, but lack good enough reasons to do so... unlike StarsJPI don't even consider Fubuki part of Gen 1 anymore since she's put with Gamers a lot of the time for official promo material. If Haato left I wouldn't put it past them to either not renew Aki and Matsuri's contract once they reach their 10 year anniversary or try and force them to be affiliates to try and save face. I've said it before, but if Aki were to ever leave she would most likely end up joining Reject. They already have Nodoka and Naraka from Niji, so they're not afraid of hiring people from the big companies.
>>114235267>Maybe it wasn't officially when Hololive started, but that changed years ago.What are you talking about? What changed? Streaming was never their job, and still isn't.
>>114243090Well had Fubuki been left as the only member early enough, gen 1 would have certainly got the Hitomi Chris treatment. But currently Matsuri is in a favorable spot due to her friendship with Riona (and likely preventing her graduation); though the moment that changes (and not for a lack of trying on the company's part), things will go back to "normal". I mean it's hard not to see FG and especially Riona as favored by the company (likely due to her ex-big idol background)Dunno how contracts work but it'd be hard to force them as their fanbases are more wary of such things. Their main hope is a repeat of Coco (the target talent feels so inclined to leave that such nudged wouldn't be noticed)Now for post holo prospects, Aki would have better ones (considering the GTA incident burned bridges for Matsuri). Besides Reject, Neo Porte could be an option, assuming Hal has the resources (Aki's kinda a honorary member as is). This assumes that she wouldn't pivot to staff.>>114243128Yet streaming is part of success. Just look at AZKi; the moment she started streaming she went from "who?" to an oft spoken of name. Good luck getting most suits to admit it
>>114241326>I doubt they would do that to Suisei.Suisei mentioned some time ago that she actually fought a lot with management over projects. Is Studio Stellar managing everything for her now or does Cover still have a say? Still don't know how it actually works...
>>114199945That hairdryer video is so cute. The animation and art style also really fit with Roboco's voice.
>>114244155Recently? I mean early on I could see that as she had yet to amass the prestige she does now. That and with how many graduations happened in the last few years, I imagine they'd be wary of pressing too hard, considering less combative talents have been driven out. As for her studio, I feel that handles most of the direct managing and the worst I'd suspect of it is "losing" anything pertaining to holostar collabs and nothing less (a happy Suisei is one less likely to tear the company a new one with her leaving)Also I wonder how long before Yagoo's plan to more directly lead management will kick in and if that'd fix the uppity new managers
>>114239910>>114244425There's certain art styles like that one that just work for certain members.
Not recently. Was about 2 years ago in response to some comments about the direction of the company with more concerts and 3D Lives and stuff. She got a bit annoyed at some comments and told them that it's herself that fights with management a lot over projects.>if that'd fix the uppity new managers.Somehow a problem in a lot of companies these days...
>>114247924Oops, meant for >>114244760
>>114247924 (me)To clarify a bit, there were some comments that she'd of course defend the company since she directly benefits from a direction towards more concerts and idol stuff. So she clarified that she actually fights with management the most over projects.

>>114243774>Yet streaming is part of success.Of course. It's just not their job and there has never been a time when it has been.It's pretty ironic that management would prefer an entire company of Suiseis and Marines, not realizing that the value of their sponsorshits would drop to nothing without streaming.

>>114247924>>114248205Much can change in 2 years, be it the general atmosphere, managing situation and/or Suisei's "weight".>>114249008Those two got where they because they didn't slack on the stream front in their formative times. Sure they may have cut back these days but they're at the point where it can be afforded. Promos/etc can offset a lack of streaming these days but only to a certain point.Aki getting blindsided with extra work that doesn't amount to any real benefit seems like sabotage as....WHAT PROMOTIONS!? I'm amazed she even gets her checks with how a great chunk of the company seems to ignore her existence in regards to positive things 90% of the time (these days even Roboco and Choco get noticed for gigs a decent bit, though the former is due to Gen 0 being officially adopted and 5 members look nice)
People here are arguing about how the company treats her while she struggles to find a comfortable temperaturehttps://x.com/akirosenthal/status/2090305005668721113Also, if you have Spotify, get Heroine Audition to one million.https://x.com/akirosenthal/status/2090316880783548526
>>114225317>I read that apparently a lot of the new management in the office is from the TV industryInteresting. That's the first I've heard about it.
>>114250703>these days even Roboco and Choco get noticed for gigs a decent bit, though the former is due to Gen 0 being officially adopted and 5 members look nice.Ah come on, Roboco has been working hard over the last year. Give her some credit. Sure, the Gen 0 thing gave her more exposure. But I think her last two 3D LIVE and her guest appearences definitely made her stand out the most. And maybe the revival of her ASMR streams last year.The problem for her was mostly that she often got sick before. But she's really improved her health this year.
>>114250843>https://x.com/akirosenthal/status/2090305005668721113That's like trying to figure out ancient egyptian hieroglyphics.
>>114250843It's been something of a lingering sore spot and it's glaring af considering how other talents with slow starts have been treated better (Lui, Iroha, and Riona).As for the Spotify thing, one can also find that one song Aki did with another group.>>114251634The health issues were due to eating expired food chronically (which was caused by AnPonTan dying/Aki's splatoon arc basically as the food was gotten for gatherings that stopped happening) but before then Roboco's been nigh forgotten for a while. During that time few knew she was Hololive even. And while she started to reach out pre-official Gen 0, it wasn't until afterwards that she started being in various things like the recent map game thing.
>>114255355To be fair, though, all three were pushed up by their association with established holos. A lot of people in the company like Lui for her willingness to organize events; Suisei has gone to bat for Iroha several times; and Riona, aside from being on good terms with PekoMari, is also a part of the management-pushed Dev_IS.Aki is one of the earliest gens, so it's harder for her to integrate like that. She can't just pretend to be a hardcore 35P or something now to get a Miko buff, and suddenly increasing her association with more popular talents would just make her look like a leech. So, she has to pave her own path a lot more, instead of depending on her sempai like the later gens could.
>>114255648All three also had company support to varying levels while Aki (at least in gen 1) seems written off. And with Riona, it was to a degree intentionally invoked (having gen 0's big names lined up in a short period certainly eyebrow raising, though the interest was real)And speaking of Riona, Matsuri befriending her definitely benefitted her but she definitely isn't a social climber. But I suspect it's allowed as Matsuri's support likely prevented Riona from graduating after her early screw up. Otherwise the suits would make it hard for them to collab (mainly via encouraging more popular collab partners). Though Aki isn't alone as Mene was in a sense on the receiving end as for one collabs with Towa only picked up after Aqua graduated/End of StartEnd (though I suspect it's sheer popularity may have been a factor in her graduation) I figure RoseMIA is still a thing due to strong interest from both Mio and AZKi enough to ignore suggestions to stick to what's popular.
>>114255355>The health issues were due to eating expired food chronically (which was caused by AnPonTan dying/Aki's splatoon arc basically as the food was gotten for gatherings that stopped happening)You know she still has some of that food in her freezer.
>>114256471Eh? I thought she cleared out her freezer some months ago...
>>114257170Or was it her fridge?
>>114257170>>114257219I think there was some sort of clean up that happened and Roboco's been good about things ever since (though more friends to have a gathering with also helps)
>>114256176>Matsuri's support likely prevented Riona from graduating after her early screw up.Please refresh my memory on what that "screw up" was because I'm drawing a complete blank. All I associate with Riona now mentally is >sexand>rionafacein that order, most of the time.
>>114257170>>114257219>>114257379>Aki goes over for an off-collab.>Sees her fridge with food over two years old and cleans it a bit.>Tells her what to throw away.Two months pass>Choco and Lui go for an off-collab.>They see her fridge and it still has old food so they clean it.NINE months pass>Roboco buys land and built a house.>It's Aki's first off-collab with Roboco in a little over a year and at Roboco's new house.>Aki opens Roboco's fridge.>She finds the remaining expired food she told Roboco to throw away still in there.OVER ONE YEAR passes >It's Aki's first off-collab with Roboco in a little over a year and at Roboco's new house.>Aki opens Roboco's fridge.>She finds the remaining expired food she told Roboco to throw away still in there.A few months passhttps://x.com/robocosan/status/1853023509045469205Roboco later says on stream that she kept hiding the food she was supposed to throw away. Her reasoning was "it's frozen so it's still good" and "it was expensive so I can't throw it out".
>>114258504>Her reasoning was "it's frozen so it's still good"Ah, I remember that one. And the air vents in her new house that haven't been cleaned before...Looking at things now, she's improved her lifestyle quite a bit.
>>114258185The whole liars game mess where she quit it after saying it bored her, which for a number of factors blew up and caused her to close in on herself early on. IMO the reactors were likely a mix of general antis, Holo antis, antis from her past life as an idol, and a few nutter holofans who took an ex-idol showing up as a threat to their oshis. It's not hard to imagine such a thing making her rethink things possibly.>>114258504Yet she hasn't eaten it (and get sick again), though it doesn't help it's been a while since someone who would get on her case visited (don't think Suu even knows). In any case she seemed to be mainly eating fresh food
>>114255355>The health issues were due to eating expired food chronicallyNot really. The first to she got sick and almost died was when she got sick, then got COVID and then got sick again. If I remember correctly, this was when she got out of the bath, called an ambulance , opened her door and collapsed. The second time was when she collapsed and called an ambulance and stayed with her family for a while. This was when she posted on her other account that she was losing her hair due to the treatment and bought wigs just in case. Last year(?) she also got sick and called an ambulance.>>114258710>Looking at things now, she's improved her lifestyle quite a bit.She's started eating better and more to "fill out her body" plus she's going to the gym constantly. She looks really great from the picture she posted on her Instagram.>>114258761>don't think Suu even knowsNo one outside of Aki and Choco know. If anything the other members probably think it's a joke.
>>114261029>She's started eating better and more to "fill out her body" plus she's going to the gym constantly. Yeah, something about wanting to shape her body with eating and regular workouts. It's mostly home workouts now that her forbidden room has been cleaned.>She looks really great from the picture she posted on her Instagram.Yeah. She seems to be doing really well.
>>114261029>This was when she posted on her other account that she was losing her hair due to the treatment and bought wigs just in case.Things were quite bad for her around that time. Didn't know she bought wigs because of that. >Last year(?) she also got sick and called an ambulance.She had a fever and thought it would be fine for the karaoke relay but it got worse at night so she called an ambulance. Was disappointing for her since she was looking forward to singing.

I don't know of it would be "big" enough, but if Aki joins Onatsu's ARK server there's a small chance Choco could also join. Choco told Aki that she wants to play ARK again and if Aki is invited to an ARK server, she would want join if the host lets her.
