Seeing Nijisanji's downfall in realtime is something else man. How does a company fuck up THIS BADLY. Now I'm starting to get the feeling that Alban was actually being kinda serious when he joked about being broke that one time... Also not surprised tho. The red flags have existed for aaages. We've just been looking past em for the sake of our talents. Now that they themselves are showing how fucked up the company is to them though. The agency might as well be done for. It's a shame too, there's so many genuinely good people in the agency. Like Uki and Fulgur off the top of my head are some of the most supportive and kind internet celebs out there and you can tell they're genuine from their very mannerisms and how they treat other people at all times.
Might as well just let all of niji graduate at this point. Move on to Vshojo or Idol or literally anything else
Anyways all y'all dragoons go subscribe to Dokibird, she deserves the world for what that shithole of an agency did to her.
I wish we as a fandom could focus less on Nijisanji in this whole shitstorm. I see so much “Niji is losing everything!” “Niji is in huge trouble!” “Niji is going to suffer so much for this!” and that’s all well and good! I love shitting on Tazumi as much as anyone else (maybe more, if you look at my post history), BUT.
I think it’s of more value to highlight the great things the talents are doing NOW and let Niji rot, undiscussed, in a ditch. This isn’t ABOUT them. This isn’t about how much they’re losing. This is about the victory of everyone who’s escaped. So:
Let’s talk about Matara Kan, who’s finally getting to chase her wild creative endeavours. Who sounds so unspeakably happy and proud of herself for her achievements every stream. Who’s finally getting the help she needs to pursue incredible things with nobody shooting her down or leaving her on her own.
Let’s talk about K9 Kuro, who’s got a super sick model he’s clearly proud of. Who’s branching out to IRL streams and collabs and doing the things that make him happy without restriction. Who’s trying new things without the fear of losing money or being mocked by those around him, because he finally has a supportive community who lets him shine.
Let’s talk about Dokibird, who’s just… man. Doing everything and doing it all with a smile, all for her fans. She bounced back and she came back even stronger, and she’s living her newfound freedom to the fullest. Let’s be honest, nobody else ever deserved her. She’s chasing new goals and flying higher than she ever has before, and her passion and love for her community is one in a million.
Let’s talk about Maid Mint, who’s back with a vengeance.
The nijisanji drama just got 10 TIMES WORSE WHAT (TW suicide and perfect punctuation)
I can't believe that any of those livers fully believed the words they were saying, or that they even wanted to say them. In light of that situation though, I'd like to repost this clip from several months ago, since it pertains to my opinion on the situation.
This clip has literally kept me from hurting myself before. I won't go as far as to say I've tried to commit full-on suicide before, but that's besides the point. Can a man who's said this, said something so impactful, who has literally saved my life (and probably some others) say the things he said today? With Vox and Elira?
I don't believe it. I believe that he's been forced to say these things.
that anon wasn’t me but they are absolutely correct and i feel like i should give my two cents worth about all of this among the sea of hate towards the nijisanji livers. i’m not bootlicking the company, but i feel like it’s hypocritical for people to sent hate to the talents after doki said MULTIPLE times not to since she was also a victim of such behavior (and plenty of dragoons no longer even feel safe in her community because of the immense amount of people who are only there to harass and don’t even care for her) this is a rant that just shows that the issue is gray and that we’ll never really know what’s going on as outsiders
tell the remaining members to graduate because their fanbase will follow them is stupid, acting like they didn’t work their asses off to get where they are and haven’t invested so much in their current persona. ike, elira, and vox are some of the most popular talents so that it makes sense for anycolor to force them into making the stream. saying that vox doesn’t care about mental health after his charity stream and saying that it was just for show need to shut up because we’ll never how how he’s really feeling behind the avatar. elira specifically doesn’t deserve the disproportionate amount of hate and disgusting things she received from it from what was essentially revenge porn to art of her being abused, have these people not been taught that if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all? it costs NOTHING to spam hate on your private account instead.
while i agree that the 2% merch sales and 1/4 (after youtube) of the supas should be raised, that doesn’t mean that the livers aren’t making any money and are poor as several of them have mentioned being able to pay off student loans and have turned their lives around with the money. while it sucks that selen made no profit after investing 200k into projects, maria has mentioned before that covers were more of passion gifts to fans rather than something to make money off of (i DO think that they should be paid for their projects, but that’s just how it goes unfortunately). last cup of coffee was taken down because she didn’t have all of the proper permissions and rushed posting it as a sweet gift to fans, management had full intentions to put it back up.
accusing livers of being bullies based on speculations is idiotic as it just hurts innocent people in the crossfire. these may just look like anime women and men to you, but they are REAL PEOPLE and streaming for nijisanji is their main livelihood! have some empathy, it’s hurting their mental health (the mental health some “dragoons” seem to care about so much)
this goes to say, i am on doki’s side because NO ONE should have to go what she went through, but i just want to show that there are two sides to a coin. i think that nijisanji needs better management, to allow their talents more freedom and a higher percentage of merch sales/supas, and stop treating their livers like shit! stop the harassment and move on, it’s what doki has mentioned multiple times that she wanted! don’t be one of the reasons another liver may have to go what she went through because you have an irrational hate boner for the company
also stream mani / gilty x gilty by maria marionette, finana ryugu, POMU RAINPUFF, meloco kyoran, and kotoka torahime
guys this shit right here
This right here
We need to like post this everywhere bc holy shit people need to understand
You are 100% right!! I agree with everything you just said, esp the "graduate and get out of the company" because they really did bust their asses off to get where they are now and it's a childish way of thinking
One of my papers i need to do for my mass media class is about pr disasters and i know exactly what to write about. I’m doing it on one of the worse pr failure in the 2020s, Selen’s termination.
My knowledge of Vtubers starts and stops with Kizuna Ai. The only reason I know of most big VTubers is because I genuinely am fascinated in the way model rigging works and because two singers I followed YEARS ago are now Vtubers (AmaLee and Bao The Whale)
With that being said, watching Nijisanji make the biggest PR mistake of their life over the past week has been the funniest shit ever. Like GODDAMN. I have learned more about the financial instability of this one company in three days than I ever have since the dawn of Vtubers. I have never been interested Vtubers before (aside from the two mentioned above cause I watched them when I was like 14), this situation alone has made me want to consume so much VTuber material.
Anyway good luck and great wishes on Doki's come back to the internet.
hey, doki fans? niji haters? you all do realise that finding a reason to hate EVERY niji liver, sorting them into categories like “snake” and “backstabber” and “bully,” is just as bad as that doki fan hit list, right? you know there are real people behind the avatars, right? you know people are nuanced and it’s impossible to expect people to be entirely good and never do anything wrong, right? you know people make mistakes under pressure? that people make mistakes in general? that attacking the livers is going to do nothing but make niji management’s mistreatment worse and do nothing to actually hurt the company? that the flying allegations are mostly false? that all you’re doing is making this worse?
you know being a doki fan doesn’t give you an excuse to hurt people? you know being on the “good side” doesn’t make it impossible for you to do any wrong? you know both sides have fucked up and lost sight of the original purpose of supporting doki & boycotting niji?
you know how to tell when things have been taken too far, right?
NOTE: op is a doki fan & niji hater. you can tell by the pfp and multiple previous posts made on this matter. fuck kurosanji, doki forever.
