This pretty much confirms EN market is a lost cause and soon the branch will be dissolved.
oh no what will i do without my cheap cookie-cutter chinese-made trinkets
Their logistics system is collapsing.
>>88552680The fact that sisters are celebrating this is honestly bafflingTho that shouldn't be that surprising since there aren't any Western fans to begin with so I guess it's a "win" for them?
>>88552680Ching chong no western fans for the EN branch
>>88552680I would be really baffled if a merge actually happens. Like there’s no way Niji would do it, right?
>>88552680>Two more weeks, guyz!!!
>>88552680Quite literally the first step of closing down a branch is getting rid of its infrastructure. They shut down all the offices in Indonesia right before they merged it.
>>88554841When the fuck did they say they were shutting down the US warehouse?
>>88552680It's all about minimising losing money now until The Merge.
They had a US warehouse? News to me.>opened September 2022>basically just debut merch and unsold stock from the cancelled AX concert>Talents that debuted in 2023 or 2024 don't even have debut merch on therehttps://nijisanji-store.com/search?page=1&q=USA+delivery%2A&type=product>>88554393They seem as confused as I was that there's a US warehouse, everything on here also ships from Japan, and most items only ship from Japan
>>88552680Mint and Doki took away all NA viewer
>>88552680Why didn't they open a store in China?
>>88554937Anon, if they're no longer shipping merch from the US Warehouse than they probably are either selling the warehouse off, or closing it down.
>>88555711I doubt it was their warehouse to begin with, they were probably just renting a shelf in someone else's warehouse. it's not like acrylic stands or button badges take up much space and that's basically all they were selling from the US
>>88555929Their whole statement basically reads like this>we’re starting the process of ending our contract with our US warehouse so we’ll start moving our stuff to our JP warehouse, in the meantime some stuff will still be shipping from the US while we complete this transition
>>88555929Dawg it doesn't matter whether they built their own warehouse or rented someone else's. Niji will no longer ship their merch to US, meaning their US warehouse has served its purposeThis is the precaution of where Niji direction is going. NijiEN is not gonna last long as an English Western branch
>>88555929so what will happen to the niji contractors that been working on the US warehouse?Do you think they'll also be relocated to JP? LMAO
>>88556477>Niji will no longer ship their merch to USWhere are you getting this from?
>>88555711They didn't say that weren't shipping merch from the US warehouse, you retard. They said it was only specific items. Do you know how to read?
>>88554688how is this baffling to you? That's literally their MO.Debut new branch, mismanage it into the ground, merge it into JP, wait for it to die.
>>88559953that's because only specific items are sold from the US warehouse
>>88552680>still a bit more than 2 hours of trading left in Q2>not even waiting until trading ends before announcing their intent to raze the EN branch and salt the earthJesus Fucking Christ, just how bad is the EN branch's revenue this quarter!? If the commerce revenue doesn't cover warehousing expenses, if it costs less to move the stuff across the Pacific Ocean than it does to just let it continue collecting dust in a closet the size of a fairly large house, just how catastrophically bad did they do?And here's the thing about a warehouse - it's exactly what is says on the tin. It's literally a closet the size of a fairly large house, meant for storing stuff (wares).And they're gonna spend the next month emptying out their house of wares.Things are so Grimm (grim) for Niji EN right now that Disney is gonna use it as the basis for a movie in the Animated Canon in about 5-7 years from now.
>>88560983They say in the next paragraph that they're still shipping things from the US warehouse
>>88556477>to UStake your medications. most of the items ship from Japan.
>>88561025ANON-KUN YOU MUSTO UNDERSTANDU! SEREN IS NEGRIGIBLE LOSS!
>>88561025>Headcanon
>>88561476nijiseethe
>>88555584Chinese people don’t buy products outside China. If someone tries, all China does is copy the product and make it themselves. Just take a look at what happened to the Segway. I have never worked for a company that didn’t regret trying to sell their products to the Chinese because they will constantly try to steal and resell your shit and Chinese courts protect them.
>>88560714Idk I can’t really explain at all despite Niji showing mishandling stuff time and time again. Sometimes I can’t help but be shocked
>>88552680>Merge soon, hoho.and dookieshit will do another sewerslide attempt in two more weeks right goon ? it might boost her numbers again lol.
>>88563735Thanks for the premium grade nijiseethe, Enna.
>>88563867Goddamn she fell off. She was never this overt and assblasted, she used to be much more insidious.
>>88552680Goes to show probably most of their merch sales are in Asia anyway if it is no longer financially justifiable to rent warehouse space in the US. Not even if it's like a closet to store the little buttons or whatever most of it is.
>is the only one left with western fans
>>88552680Oh nononono
>>88556477nah, they'll no longer ship FROM the US. Important difference.US will still be able to pay exorbitant shipping prices to receive products.
>>88552680read the comments, dramaschizo. there was ONE item being shipped from that warehouse, all other merch already came from Japan. 2 more weeks, faggots?
>>88563735she's free from the black company so no reason to>numbersshe maintained her numbers as selen without the black company stealing money from her, she's winning
>>88568993>ONEholy blind. go hospital asap
>>88555584They can counterfeit a replica with 10x less cost and 5x hazardous material. They don't need niji.
>>88554688Wait and see
what happened?
>>88554688Look what happened to Niji Korea.Look what happened to Niji ID.
>>88552680LMAO
>>88574269
>>88574300how did KR branch fail? any QRD?
>>88554688In some ways it would be bafflingly stupid. Their JP market has little to no growth potential especially with how badly they're managing it. They'd basically be announcing that Nijisanji will become stagnant in the future with very limited prospects for growth. It'd be a disaster for their stock position which is already struggling. Keeping up the illusion that they can, at any point, make big gains in EN again costs them very little indeed and it's not like they'd make some huge gain by closing it down.What's baffling is that they themselves seem to put absolutely zero fucking effort into EN.
>>88577408same way as EN is failing, retarded management and ensuing drama
>>88552680ruh roh
>>88552680It was already over in February.
>>88577408>>88578078Actually it's slightly different, most of NijiKr's problems come from absorbing an existing KR company, management and all, and letting them go to work. Unfortunately the exsiting KR vtuber company are at best incompetent or at worst actual grifters and mismanaged the company while making off like bandits. So nijisanji had to send actual HQ staff over to manage nijiKR, and just like all their other foreign ventures they failed to break it into the local market and eventually decided to can the branch
>>88552878WONT SOMEONE THINK OF THE ACRYLIC STANDS
>>88577408Being a Korean in a Japanese company never grants a great result
>>88578242kek
>>88577951They HAD growth potential in EN.They then decided to fuck around after fucking up instead of announcing housecleaning in short order to restore faith in their brand. They don't have the option of doing anything but folding it in anymore.
>>88578549They can still try. I doubt it'll work anymore but the fact is they didn't even try at all, they did announce some house cleaning in that Riku apology skit and never actually bothered doing it (shocking, I know) but to most people over the age of 15 it was incredibly obvious Riku was saying this no CEO should ever be admitting to, such as establishing that he didn't even know what was going on with EN when that's LITERALLY his main job as a CEO. The fuck are they even paying that clown for?
>>88552680A C C E L E R A T E
>>88578674Fair enoughIIRC he's literally there because nepotism money, even after admitted via interview that his business "style" was making money fast before pumping and dumping
>>88579007It's all just so bizarre to me that people can't see the writing on the wall. Back in January/February last year people kept banging on about the massive bank of money AnyColor had with which to do things like stock buybacks, they were saying it like it was a really good sign of AnyColor's health... How? A company amassing liquidity and not expending it on growth at a sustainable rate is one of the biggest red flags in business. It's one of the most tell-tale signs of corruption which means your business is quite thoroughly rotten and drastic measures are required to right the ship.
>>88579090Riku is recorded on video-interviews literally stating that he is in the vtuber business for the short-term income, and that he has had multiple other business ventures with the same outlook. He loves the low overhead cost of running a large roster of streamers. The model of merch and online donations also makes it a good venture for laundering money and creating a cozy asset bubble for friends of his family to generate funds through (look up who he has family ties with). Nijisanji's fans are being scammed, and they are happy to pay for the trust-fund kid's grift.
>>88552680Eh, it'll be negligible.
>>88568993Read the reply to that comment nijisister
>>88561025>Jesus Fucking Christ, just how bad is the EN branch's revenue this quarter!?Probably worse than picrel.
>>88577408
>>88580952So more than HoloEN's zero profit? I accept your concession
>>88580952deserved
>>88554393Of course they do. Japan is closer to them than USA
>>88580952cute Banchou
>>88552680>Random Kendrick Quote>no mention of hololive>the feudal lord samurai everyone is dick riding possibly doesn't even watch vtubers.>the feudal lord samurai didn't even mentioned cover or at all no mention of suisei or pekora considering those two are mainland talent.>not even thank you from the mlb>boomers baseball fans in the stands were visibly confused and scratching their heads at the performance even the zoomers in the crowd could not careless about it.>you can see people ordering food and going towards rest room breaks during the performance>Absolute wins to holochads btw!
>>88581565Dogeza is unsightly, get off the floor and correct thy tongue
>>88565215Faggot rosebud
>>88583076Is true. Meanwhile gura performance at the dodger stadium was seen as nothing but a toilet and food break lol.
>>88583156why are sisters seething at the dodgers collab months later
Hololive does not even have a warehouse in the USA.
>>88583271Dodgers won the world cup in a fairly surprising reversal of their previous losing streak, shortly after they collabed with Hololive (where they won a game they were losing and their luck turned right after Gura performed, so people are meming about holo buff a lot). Sisters are absolutely livid at this.
>>88583488oh that's awesome, good for the dodgers, I'll join in on the gloating
>>88583488Nobody who went to the world series bought a ticket to see gura. You better hope people don't upload the website of people heading towards the rest rooms during her performance. Short answer nobody gave a shit about hololive. Even black dude they were quoting who wasn't even there was given a shout out by the world champs I don't see them thanking cover corp or mentioning them anywhere. Get fucked lmao.
>>88583942Typo webm not website
>>88584006next time wipe your tears before posting to avoid typos
>Kurosanji getting closer and closer to becoming completely genuinely dead>"WELL JOE NORMIE DIDN'T KNOW WHO GURA WAS AND WENT TO THE BATHROOM WHEN SHE SANG!"Really funny that's the only thing they have to say.
>>88583942Holy seethe
>>88584139don't bully them, they've been cooking up this cope for months
>>88584108>>88584198No you seethe at truth only you retards think hololive was more important than the actual world series lmao none of you watches even baseball but it don't stop you from dick riding yagoo 4 inch cock lo none of you even know it was called the world series and not the superbowl or Stanley cup that tells me all I need to know about all of you bandwagon losers.
>>88584535what did I tell you about wiping your tears
>>88584535Bro calm down it's just an anime girl.
He's got to be trolling but he got a good laugh out of me imagining someone genuinely using that as an argument over Niji shutting down
>>88584535SISTERS, OUR NOT-SO-BELOVED VTUBER FRANCHISE WE PLEDGED OUR HALF-ASSED LOYALTY IS HEADING TO TOTAL COLLAPSE BUT AT LEAST THE LITTLE JIMMY WENT TO PISS INSTEAD OF WATCHING GAWR GURA SING. WE ARE SO FUCKING WINNING!
you holodrones somehow missed half the stadium leaving when gura was on
>>88584909>Already disgusted with anime shit from a young ageBased Jimmy
>>88585036And yet there was still more people than on Niji's vtuber concert... oh wait, THERE'S NO CONCERTS, EVERYTHING WAS CANCELLED, OH NO SISTERS WHAT A MASSIVE BLUNDER ON OUR SIDE. BUT WE CAN STILL COUNT IT AS 100% FROM ZERO SITS IN NON-EXISTING CONCERT HALL RIGHT?
>>88584654>>88584687>>88584909Very considerable of yagoo to utilize his talents to give people a rest room break.
>>88585172People were there for the world series not your pedo bait shark anime girl. You're beyond fucking delusional.
>>88581565>A troon journalist on some website said holoen made no profit, so it definitely made no profitSo me proof of where there was official statement on holoen making no profit
>>88585335They didn't say they didn't make profit they just said is it was not as profitable as they hope it would be. Aka yagoo thinking he still has 2020 covid crowd watching them.
>>88585320And yet they stayed for Gura.And considering that you start throwing words like "pedo bait" I'll assume that you're totally-not-assblasted and absolutely-not-coping with the fact that NijiEN is dying, sister. You literally lost and the only thing left for you is throwing childish tantrum and calling other names.
>>88583942>>88584535I refuse to believe this isn't just some catalog mongoloid baiting for (You)s - not even sisters are still seething about the Dodgers collab, at least not to this extent.
>>88585527Nigga nobody stayed for gura. You're delusional as fuck. People started walking out the very moment her performance hit. I'm not surprised at all you don't even watch streams so being ignorant about what actually went down hits right at home for you.
this is so fucking funny
>>88585645>he thinks people bought world series tickets to see gura lmao Embracing the retard mindset huh.
>>88585706Some dodgers or holo fans are happy about the dodgers winning the world series so they made a few threads about it, any normal people would be happy for them or ignore them but we are talking about a schizo.
>>88585485>TheyAre you gonna show me proof where they said anything sister? If holoen is not profitable, none of the corpos would be.
>>88586148Archive two months and read.
>>88586291Show you are not gonna show any proof. Typicals sister.
>>88586372>Minor spelling mistake
>>88585335It was an interview with Yagoo, Holofag. Keep seething
>>88586502
>>88586692Surely you have proof for these claims sister
>>88586740Surely you can read, holocuck
>>88586959And how is what that journo said an official statement from Yagoo?
>>88587107https://www.siliconera.com/hololive-vtuber-ceo-would-to-see-collaborate-with-aaa-developers/Because it was an interview with the CEO. LMAO
>>88587149>>88586959Reading into it he is saying that holoen is not as profitable as holojp, which is obvious. But where is the proof of the narrative that was told to me in this site by sisters >>88581565
>>88587149Holoeopcucks love memory holing shit like this. This is the real reason why en girls are leaving for jp. Eop are a dying breed.
>>88587440He flat out said HoloEN makes no returns on the investment they put in. Cope more
>>88587467>>88586959>Holoen is not as profitable as holojpNijisisters how did you spin this to, holoen making zero profit? If holoen is "not making profit", is nijien running in loss?
>>88587516Another sister lie. He only said holoen is not making as much profit as holojp. Your fellow sister even posted a screencap here>>88586959
>>88587574>-8It is running in loss
>>88587574>>88585485But I did said exactly that you're arguing with two different people you must be one of those retards that thinks vt means one person is replying to you.
>>88587734All he said was holojp is more profitable than holoen
>>885649183D concert btw
>>88587948>>88586959https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQbBzOvPBpc
>>88588159
>>88588190What part of yagoo hoping to see profit returns for holoen once they open their North American hq you did not understand, are you illiterate?
