I'm assuming this isn't photoshopped given how insane Taiwan news is. They've had segments about Twitch drama several times before.

Once you discover haachama it would be immoral not to use her in your news program at every chance you get.

My "favorite" part about that announcement is that despite having a length of small essay, and constantly saying that what Coco did was heinous, that it hurt many people and that it will have consequences for Hololive as whole, they never once mention what Coco actually did, why it is supposed to be heinous, how and by what are all those people supposed to be hurt and the reason for possible consequences for Hololive. If I had no idea about what this particular shitstorm is about, I would assume she ate a baby on stream or something.

if i gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed there would be some sort of intention, it would probably be hoping to catch unrelated people in the dragnet through sheer osmosis of outrage even if they had no idea what was going on just to try and get one last sick own on coco

but it's probably just general outrage incoherence

If Cover was interested in severing an enormous percentage of their revenue stream, what on earth makes you think they'd make the decision to sever the part that serves their home country? Youtube is the Japanese-facing side of the business.

This is like saying "The NBA is going to stop playing domestic games in the US to avoid controversy with China".

I'm sorry I'm just frightened. Hololives are the first thing to make feel genuinely happy in a long time and I'm terrified of losing them. I'm literally building improbable scenarios in my head of how they will abandon me somehow because I have abandonment trauma.

Even if the worst case scenario you're imagining happesn your favs likely won't vanish. Vtubers have existed in many forms and will exist again. In the worst case scenario where like Coco & Haachama get axed, you might see some other hololivers follow them (Like Kanata who Coco has been a great help to and they live together), but as long as Cover still operates there are plenty of vtubers in their roster who just go about their own business and would stick around. In the apocalypse scnerio where Cover like... folds or something, the entire roster will either fall back to previous lives or be reborn as new characters.

Honestly I think its like 60% chance the suspensions end and life goes on, 30% Coco gets axed (which would be stupid from Cover but whatever), and 10% both haachama and coco get axed. If either of the 40% options happen you could see a shift in the landscape.

Also if you like holoEN they don't simulstream to Billibilli like the HoloJPers so they will stick around.

I get it but you should probably diversify a little bit because putting your faith in Cover is just asking for trouble. Find some people in other agencies you like, or indies, imo check out Noor and the rest of the Nijisanji EN crew

e: not that hololive is going anywhere

i think coco being fired is like a 1% possibility at most. not that its really possible to play odds in this kind of situation but i really do not think it is even a somewhat likely possibility. shes one of their top talent, all their other talent clearly thinks shes reliable, shes only in this situation because she went out of her way to cover for someone else, and if they were going to fire her they would have been better off doing that to start with. im not saying its impossible but i have no idea why people think its got a decent chance of happening.

edit: and i realize '3 weeks' doesnt sound that long but to give you an idea, ruth bader ginsburg died only a week ago. Chadwick Boseman died exactly a month ago. I'm sure people will be stewing but I don't think this will immediately leap back up with the same intensity in October.

I like how they dump a laundry list of infractions that Hololive has made on bilibili as justification that Coco needs to be punished more. Like what? Coco has to take the fall for all of Hololive's gently caress ups? That's not a good argument chief. Try to dress up your witch hunt all you want, but no one buys it.
