>>91211001someone check up on /brg/
I have literally never heard of this corp.
>>91211024They seem to be taking it well
>>91211071they are the >debut 30 vtubers and let them fight it out on their own proprietary iphone only app company
>>91211197I mean what did anyone expect.
>>91211197Huh? Didn't they debut this year? This soon?
>>91211001
>>91211001KEK
>>91211197Who the fuck thought it was a good idea? I mean, scamming boomer investors is one thing, but I thought chuubas are usually okay with technology and they would know it is a waste of their time
>>91211001To no one's surprise.
>>91211217Burn brightly, burn faster. 30 vtubers at once must have burned all their funds very quickly, if they tried the usual 4-5 members they could probably have survived for longer
>>91211210I thought it was intended from the start as a 6 months reality project.
>>91211001>make a corpo solely to shill a dead platform>it fails with the "biggest" vtuber you have averaging 5ccvTO THESHOCKOFABSOLUTELYNOBODY
>>91211398>Burn brightly, burn fasterMy man, they didn't burn bright. They were like a sloppy shart in Walmart. A bit of a stink nobody remembered after 10 minutes.
>>91211001>Vtuber company created by a web3 shitter goes up in flamesGood riddance. Sucks about the talents getting suckered into that scam though.
>>91211492Well, at least they get a free model.
>>91211398they debuted almost 60 vtubers in their less than one year of operation, btw
>>91211001So the battle royale arc ends like that?
>>91211001How's my favorite clown Kiko doing?
>>91211001Who?
>>91172282HOLY CRAP L WAS RIGHT
>>91211001HOLY SHIT L WAS REAL
>>91211465This.I'm surprised they even lasted this long.
>>91211861Can L predict the next Hololive graduate?
>already groomed 2views
>>91211001Oh no, who could have seen this coming
>>91211001I guess the grift wasn't profitable. Crypto bro is off to the next grift.
>>91211861Funny how nexas didn't instantly jump to anon's minds, that's just how little mindshare that corpo managed to gain in the corposphere
>>91211972>vtbm
>>91211001Now /vt/'s just making up random vtuber corpos to rubberneck atLike who the fuck has ever watched anything from this corpo, if it's even real
IN MEMORIAN OF NEXAS, here is one of the funniest moments in their brief existance>I can’t help but feel like you’re setting up the talents for failure with this. Having 27 debuts at pretty much the same time is actually insane. This is going to turn into a battle royal of talents having to fight against each other for viewership. You’re competing with yourself>Glad to get a criticism from a dummy account with 0 follower!t. NEXAS CEOhttps://x.com/harry__so/status/1783473597836845442
>>91212075brg exists
So, what was the sustainable model he envisioned?
>>91212022>>91212097Grim.
At least they're free from that shitty app.
Do they keep their models? I liked Rixxy.
>>91211001Wow who would've guessed not streaming on Youtube or Twitch and relying on a new streaming app would be gate crasher. At least the chuubas get the option to keep their model.
>>91212433There are conditions they have to fulfill to keep their model and YJK it's going to be that they have to stream on Anilive with it.
anilive is overDONE FOR
>>91211197wrong. The app creator is a different company, who have their own set of vtubers
>>91212564oof
Who won?
>>91212564with this attitude he should work in the games industry
>>91212564Another gem.Is there anything, anything at all about this corpo that doesn't scream "shitshow"?If you are a CEO, and you spend your time arguing with randos on Twitter on your main? You're either Elon Musk or an ass clown.
>>91212564>>91212097>>91212022Fucking kekWhy are people just simply unable to not needlessly start shit nowadays?
>>91212842What do you mean a shitshow?
>>91212907the only difference between an auteur and a retard is how successful they becomebetter luck next time Harry
>>91212022Well he was wrong in that they weren't fighting with eachother for viewership, because there was no audience at all.
>>91212938what a fucking meme
>>91212957Were any of them 0views?
>>91212938>HeroshitKEKAROOOOOOOOOO
Reminder that Filian (and I think Rima) gave lessons to the NEXAS victims lmao
the battle royale guys? the fuck did they expect? everyone makes fun of niji for shitting out more vtubers than they can reasonably support and those fuckers looked at that untenable model and said "hold my beer." I'm surprised it took this long frankly.
>>91211325Anilive & Nexus has about 300 vtubers under their company.
But seriously, what did he expect? You can’t just do a startup within a niche field and further obscure it via a shitty app.
>>91213071Punkalopi, not Rima.Rima couldn't teach somebody to not be retarded on social media if her life depended on it.
>>91212938>using an IP without permission on your slide decks>using a SHIT one at thatyeah the second one is subjective even though I really think the manga was horseshit, but the first point makes them look really unprofessional and I would be wary of working with people like that
more like nexass LMAO
>>91212200Pretty sure he just scammed a bunch of investors out if money and wanted it to fail to cover his tracksNo way anyone would seriously think this would work
>>91212072Not the same person
>>91212549is the dead company going to sue them if they use it elsewhere?>>91212560i'm sure there are absolutely no links. nexas just randomly chose to use an unifinished platform no one had heard about.
Okay but who won the battle royale though, that’s the most important thing here
>>91212938>turns out life isn't like a battle-shounen mangaShounenshitters on suicide watch.
>>91212655Esila and Mori both
>>91211001So after all is said and done has any of their talents actually managed to stand out and gain any sort of significant following?
>>91211001It didnt pay well to gamble about this happening…
>Lumi is not streaming >something diesThanks Lumi, very cool
Wait so who won the /battleroyale/?
>>91211001who?
>release vtubers like some r-selection type strategy >everything implodesHoly fuckin kekkkkkk
>>91213360Is sheep normally a 3view or is this a buff?
>>91213429ask /hfz/ for that
https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000001.000133977.htmlI thought it was a North American Vtuber company because it's a North American company, but the investors are Japanese.
Are the Welsh going to kill themselves now that their Momocute is gone?
So how much money did the suits lose on this whole thing?
>>91213262>is the dead company going to sue them if they use it elsewhere?Usually when your company dies, the assets are still held by a legal entity. Depending on the nature of the closure, it is possible that entity is a bank (who will absolutely sue) or an IP holding farm (who exists almost entirely in hope that somebody will give them an excuse to sue).They're probably relatively safe if Harry retains the IP under the company after its doors close, but even then I wouldn't count out the possibility of him firing a shot across the bow of anybody that tries to use the models unauthorized.
>>91213619Why are the japanese so fucking braindead when it comes to NFTs
>>91211249This
>>91211001ITS OVER LOL
>>91211001>malesDead on arrival>exclusive streaming app that only works on IOSCremated and the ashes scattered on arrival
>>91211001Shocking outcome.Chance of sue or allegation next week?
Damn, maybe they should have done more guest lectures?
>>91213128>>91214237
>>91214272I stand by my claim.
>>91212978Who knows, no one watched them anyway. Plenty of 1views for sure. I have seen Anilive having 10 same viewers across 4 different streamers. Sending them cheapest sticker bought with starter coins made me top donator and made their day. Really fucking grim.
>>91213165>Pretty sure he just scammed a bunch of investors out if money and wanted it to fail to cover his tracksKek, he basically gifted free models to a lot of folks. What if this was his plan all along?
>>91212655So after copy pasting Riku's strategy did they also copy paste kuzuha's design?
Was this a giant gu ritual or what? It seems, "he" couldn't properly do "it".
>>91214663I can't believe Harry scammed the rich to give to the poor. Truly the Robin Hood of vtubing.
BLOODBATH
>>91213818No bank is suing a vtuber and I doubt any of it has any actual value for an IP holding farm to be interested in. I'd just use the model wherever I wanted until I earned enough to replace it. But, even joining nexas was already a stupidity filter. I doubt any of them go on to do anything.
>>91214237Rima's advice? Suck DN and Parrot's cock.
>>91214198Funny thing is, is that it wasn't even available on the app store when it first launched and Nexas debuted the first meat wave - you had to fill out a Google form to get a download link. Utterly insane to think it was going to work, although it seems the app will continue to exist.
>>91212564Speech level: zero
Wait how much of a massacre is this. Will this be the largest mass graduation in the biz?
>>91215225they're keeping their IPs and it seems most of them plan on continuing to stream
>>91214237Ugly model. She should have been a capybara or something else from South America.
>>91211001Well that was an interesting battle royale. So who won?Also say what you want, but they truly, absolutely, accellerated like no one else.
>>91212022Fucking karma hahaha
>>91215395There's a French one who had a bit of a jump in CCV on YouTube because she watched some of /brg/'s divegrass matches, so maybe her?
>>91211001I wonder how long it would have lasted if it weren't for the morbid curiosity of anons who made /brg/? I'm sure it was a deliberate part of their marketing but if it hadn't worked would it have even lasted this long?
>>91214237https://x.com/managerkun_/status/1765287253935575361
>>91215763Where's "stealing your model and never taking accountability" in this timeline?
>>91213527Sheep has had tens of 3view streams over the last months, especially through her main game Master Duel
>>91211453>it fails with the "biggest" vtuber you have averaging 5ccv5 view is pretty good, that's up there with Fauna and Gura. The 3 and 4 views must have absolutely killed their ROI.Fucking up that bad seems like bad planning.
>>91211001My only memory of this corpo is their booth at offkai where the Asian guy standing there kept trying to pressure everyone who walked by into following them and tweeting about them
>>91215926He didn't say 5view, he said 5ccv - as in an average of five viewers. Almost all of them were 1 or 2views.
>>91215926Funny troll but he meant 5 viewers not 5 digits. Esila was the one that was most successful and she gets above 100 viewers regularly atm
will poette keep streaming?
>>91216025This guy?
>>91216119Probably, I had no idea who he was
>>91211001Sweet, they get to keep their IP and finally move platforms.
>>91211001Oh thank god.
>>91215763I guess it'll be early days forever for these people.
>>91211197NEXAS proved that a lot of western vtuber corpos want to copy Japanese idols but don't know anything about the industry. They believed a 30 idol group on a proprietary app was a genius idea.>>91212097Their CEO knew the criticism was valid so he could only respond by attacking the guy for using a fake account.
>>91211197hahahahahaha why did they think that was a good idea?
>>91211325chuubas get a free model
I mostly watch 4view Twitch vtubers, and this was the one time I ever saw a Nexus member.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FGfZ5lnb7E&t=6949s
>>91211001Well that was fastBut not unexpected
>>91211001Who won the Battle Royale?
>>91214237There are worse drama fags that they could have gone with. Such as doxx fags.
>>91213850Nfts are on paper like the supreme holy grail for the japanese money boomers.Jap merch is mostly about very overpiced/elaborate stuff for the hardcore fans, with a huge second hand market.Nfts can be sold for bullshit money, cost NOTHING to make and even give a % on reselling, is perfect.Why sell a elaborate action figure when you can sell a fucking jpeg for 10 times the price?
Isn't this the corp that made AI generated models?
>>91213406every god damned time
>>91213360Esila has a nice voice and model. I can see why she won.
>>91211197Well who won?
>>91216058...by playing a childrens card game.
>>91217171I've seen fantasy football boomers get more ccv
>>91211001So who won the battle royale?
>>91217171Forsen's audience is ripe for the pickings then
>>91217235God damn... they're dead you don't need to put napalm on the corpse!
>>91217239>>91217170This one >>91217168Coincidentially she also won the pre-debut Hunger Games simulation
Remember when Pippa called them out and got into a twitter fight with the CEO
>>91211597Imagine having 60 wives
>>91217633i have a hard time remember all the times pippa starts/involves herself in drama
Sexas nooo..
>>91214663what makes you think it will be free. He groomed a bunch of people to invest and then putting up a potentially high buyout price for the model.
>>91215763>Punkalopi>legendI mean god damn. seriously what did she ever do? where has she ever been?
>>91219772she is slumming it up as a low 3view in idol now
>>91212842You said ass clown twice.
>>91219772Punkalopi collabed with Sayu a couple times and Rin Penrose once I think. Also her picture was in the same tweet as Filian for some Nexas lecture.#legend
>>91219704This is an important point. The way it's phrased in the statement, it definitely sounds like there's a catch to keeping the IP. Otherwise it would just be a blanket "everyone will be allowed to continue activities independently."
>>91219772>where has she ever been?Dunno, the last thing she did was a watchalong of an idol corp debut she cut short at the last moment and raided into it, I wonder what did that mean? :3
You know, I like watching some 1-2 views sometimes and not even to groom them. I'd be doing it now, but it's Tenma hours.pic unrelated but relevant
>>91212097the dude just generically named "Noah" made me kek
>>91217168>nice voiceif you're gay and like shota voices, sure
>>91224504It's extra funny because another dude is Noir.
>>91212655The only one here I recognize at all is the cowgirl (LuLuLasso, I believe), because a vtuber ASMRtist I listen to sometimes on Twitch raided into her. She seemed to be doing okay; I guess they weren't entirely limited to the proprietary app?
>>91224611Her voice sounds pretty feminine to me anon. Are you sure you're thinking of the right Nexus girl?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cscj_nVvs5g
>>91225304You do know that shotas are usually voiced by female voice actors, right?
I'm honestly shocked they actually managed to continue this long. It was an incredibly stupid idea.
>>91211001Do we really need a thread every time some vtuber clone company goes bankrupt?
>>91225221They had to stream a certain length of time (and I think reach a certain number of followers/donations) before they were allowed off the app.
>>91226169yes
>>91216706That's lulu lasso. She's probably the closest thing to a winner the battle royale had, successfully networked with a ton of liggers and is already 3view on twitch
>>91226169Yeah sorry, we should have had Niji/Holo/IM/Mint/Doki/numbers bait thread #5,756,451 instead.
>nexAS>ASsad>assad funded many propaganda outlets>nexas falls one day after the assad regimecoincidence?!
>>91226469it's just like idol!
>>91211197They should have gone all out on the battle royal shit and eliminate contestants every month instead of pussyfooting around with kumbaya.now they kumbabroke
>>91216306>>91220709>muh IP>muh IP>muh IPwhat is with you twitter retards harping up on IPof course they get to keep it this is not anime mickey mouse, their IPs are worthlessthey diluted them even further by churning out so many of them
>>91226918PHASESEETHE
>>91211001What's the small corpo death tally at for 2024 now?
>I could have got a free model out of being part of this battle royale concept and walked away with it and perhaps viewers but chose the /asp/ crab bucket route instead Wasn't interested in app streaming (also didn't own an iPhone) so I never bothered applying but AniLive did DM me like they messaged loads of others.I never replied to them because I felt it was just as much of a scam as NEXAS was. Hopefully the decent streamers from this will find their feet elsewhere.
>>91227625read nigga>offer an option [..] to retain IP rightsthat means he's SELLING THEM for MONEY
>>91227868too many to count, the ones people wanted to die like EIEN went down and we got a few extras like Kawaii and PRISM Project too, you can probably start a dead pool for corpos for next year now, and there's still plenty new companies popping up too
>>91228243read /brg/ instead of spewing retardation
>>91228390Was PRISM only this year? Christ, so much has happened it felt like last year.
>>91213262>the dead company going to sue themAnilive is ran by a separate company, so so long as ex-NEXAS talents follow their Anilive requirements for contracts, then they should be fine to use their models.
>>91228439Yes, closed on April 1st.
>>91224504btw that's because that was his actual, IRL name
>>91228718Why did idol EN all leave?
>>91229892Yuuko Yuurei- Groomed into oblivion by /k/ discord postersWan Pocchi- batshit insane, basically got axed for itThe other three were given the option to leave and keep their ips on the way out the door when Idol ran out of that Israeli money and got bought out by Brave Group
>>91230650Yeah, why did the three leave? Thy don't like Brave Group?
>>91230867>already built up a fanbase>allowed to keep the IP (provided 12 months of payments to Brave)>don't have to deal with incoming JP corpo autismSeems like a reasonable decision.
>>91212549Esila said she got to keep her IP for free and that she won't be streaming on Anilive once Nexus is dead. So, that clearly wasn't a condition.
>>91228718A company called “Eien” being that low is pretty funny
>>91211001>ceases operations>realize the unsustainable model they had, is in fact, unsustainable>>91212938>only talents who established fanbase[s] are entitled to joinBRAVO HARRYTHE REAL TOP TALENT PRODUCTION WAS THE FRIENDS MADE ALONG THE WAY
>>91211001good, they hired a dramatuber, karma was fast this time.
>>91211001Not so smug now are you Harry?
>>91211197Was this some kind of money laundering scheme?
>>91213197They're acquaintances
>>91232746it was a typical VC startup scam
>>91232746The CEO of Nexas was an employee (and friend?) of the CEO of Anilive. Anilive essentially gave him a bunch of money to start a vtuber company that would populate the platform with streamers so it wouldn't be completely dead. Harry presumably took this deal so that he could larp at being a vtuber agency owner.At some point Anilive decided that they didn't need Nexas and that they could just give AI-generated slop models to anybody who volunteered with zero oversight instead, so the money faucet turned off.
Well at least they got to keep their IP.
>>91211001To the surprise of absolutely no one
>>91211001>We thought we knew better and failed when we realized we didn't This is why the Cover way is the correct way.
>>91216576I know an Anilive talent who made the move to YouTube and she's not getting to keep her model.
>>91212097I feel sad for all those people
>>91228390Amber Glow kacked it this year. I only remembered it because the name was odd for an agency and I liked it. I know nothing about them beyond the name, in fact I thought it was the name of a singular specific vtuber, not of an entire agency.
>>91215225So far only 3 of them confirmed to be graduating>>91216091unfortunately yes
go support the members. they're indie now and deserve to thrive
>>91241915>unfortunately yesOn Anilive only? If so that isn't too bad.
>>91232721Well, let's see your vtuber company doing business!
>>91212655lulu
>>912278682024 shall be known as the graveyard of small corpos
>>91211001>Spam a fuck ton of vtubers in a battle royale >Company diesWho could have seen this one coming?
The funniest part of this whole shitshow is how you had all these fantasy vtuber names like Candyglitter Stacy or Hercule Goldglove and then there was Noah, that's it, just Noah
>>91216576reason to join a small corpo
>>91246115You should have been there it was found that his vtuber name was literally his real name and that his model was meant to resemble him. I don't think he actually knew anything about vtubers and just decided to make himself as an anime boy instead of choosing any fantastical profession that all his genmates did.
>>91247652Where is he in the overall ranking?
>>91248061Dead last in every ranking. He pioneered the genre of playing games and letting the sounds play over mic while mostly ignoring chat and had a single skill (ukulele) that he pulled out nearly every stream. His highlights include bringing his much funnier friend "nugget" as a guest onstream and subsequently getting non nexas/anilive guests banned from the company as a whole, as well as being laughed out the corpo for his lack of effort, even by his genmates. Noah was truly one of a kind.
>>91247652am I schizophrenic or wasn't it reasonably proven he was a REALITY streamer
>>91249056Pretty sure he talked about it at some point but I'm guessing he thought Nexas would be the same thing, just with prettier models. I have no idea what he did on reality though. I still don't think he knew anything about vtubing.
>>91230867In addition to what the other anon said, after they (especially Juna) dealt with being neglected by Idol's original management for so long, in addition to their payments being constantly delayed, they probably just didn't want to be under a company anymore, even if Brave might be better and actually pay them on time.
>>91248653Now this is what a mad lad should be
where there any hidden gems in there? surely a few had to be good out of 50+ vtubers
>>91249924It was really up to gen unity also dictating who stayed and left which is why no one in idol Endless (Gen 2) left after the merger despite half of them airing displeasure as strong as the remaining Gen 1 and PL posting.
IS LULU GOING TO LIVE???!!!
>>91216706pretty sure lulu got a massive headstart because she was the gf of the CEO
>>91250074define "gem"Esila, Lulu, and Momo were probably the best out of the hotde but I wouldn't call them holo material.
>>91250074I will say that Bakurah Noir's debut was really hilarious, so I guess it's good Nexas existed for that, if nothing else.
>>91248653>His highlights include bringing his much funnier friend "nugget" as a guest onstream and subsequently getting non nexas/anilive guests banned from the company as a wholeThis sounds hilarious, what did his friend do? I remember nothing about him besides him mentioning he had a gf in his debut stream.
>>91252979I was bored by the time his debut started and didn't expect anything, but it was genuinely the hardest I had ever laughed in my life because it basically edgy Derek Zoolander roleplay. Do any vods of it exist?
>>91253049>what did his friend do?Get stoned as fuck and spout comedyAlso be a dumbass https://clips.twitch.tv/AgreeableHotOstrichMoreCowbell-Qz94xlFwHCkIMBhTHarry is a huge faggot who banned unapproved people coming on stream after that so we never saw him again. Fuck you Harry you retarded faggot.
>>91253257>Do any vods of it exist?Yeah, didn't see one on YT but here's all of the Genesis debuts, he'd be day 1https://archive.org/download/nexas-debuts
>>91253487Cheers, thanks anon
>>91253257>>91253277>the perfect brotuber existed but he debuted into a meat grinder and will never be widely known
>>91253487Thanks man, I thought I'd never get a chance to watch it again. He's at 4:03:29, if anyone who hasn't seen it wants to witness greatness.
>>91211001rip hope the talents make it out alright
>>91215343She's Canadian
>>91211001Damn, I read it as Nexon at first and got really worried for a second. Thank goodness my students are safe.
How do I groom Momo now...
>>91256400find her PL
>>91211001ok
>>91250200hopefully
>>91244954Oof
>>91244954jezas
>>91256219Sensei...
>>91244954it's also one of the years with the highest birth rate
>>91217170Lulu Lasso
>>91211001>Talents gets to keep the IP rights and continue as indie if they want>they keep their accounts>helps them to transition from corpo to indieidk man, its better than most corpos out there. they tried something new and experimented. that shit is cool to me.
>>91267146They have to BUY their IP or they LOSE IT.What part of “option” do you braindead shills not understand. They have ruined countless of peoples’ time, and money on this stupid worker-abusive experiment and they should be ashamed. Worse of all they lost, you cannot justify an inhuman black corpo without a real victory and there is no such thing here, Drivel and bile to the very end from management.
>>91212564>hohol flag is more sensible than you
>>91220709You'd think so, but Ruri in her stream used the phrase "giving us the IP" and mentioned how generous they were being.Also some of them thought that they'd have to switch to streaming on IRIAM now that it has an English version, but nothing came of that.
>>91267365>BUYproofs?
>>91269120none
Oof
>>91211001Wow who could have seen this coming?
So what will Nell do? She's the only one I'm interested in.
>>91271577>>91271274
>>91271515Cute.
>>91250107This. Rin and Juna were gone regardless, and Fuyo alone wouldn't have worked
>>91271515kek
>>91212097I'm actually surprised nobody dogpiled on the tweet and posted reddit shit like how it aged like milk or whatever, considering how drama hungry you motherfuckers are
