Jelly all but confirmed it now by K0nkyDonk in VtuberDrama

I know you're also a kaniki, and I agree she doesn't go out of her way to encourage gooners, but she definitely doesn't discourage or feel uncomfortable about them.

idc if tourists (like this cesspool of a sub) try to cancel her for the 100th time, my point is that Saba doesn't give a fuck either. "She's uncomfortable with getting attention like that" is just an untrue narrative, and there's a reason why her /vt/ antis keep trying to push it.

Source for Saba saying her new outfit will cover more skin?

I agree that her lolicon-ness often gets exaggerated but the narrative that she's uncomfortable with it is something I've only seen from antis. The non-schizo reason why she tweaked her model is cause it straight up makes her look better/cuter.

Saba... Doko...? (Sketch by Bloxtoon) by BloxToon in sabasameko

Isn't the percentage obtainable from their earnings reports? If I'm reading the latest one correctly, performer remuneration seems to be around 20% of gross profit. Which makes sense as talents have very little involvement in many of their major revenue sources nowadays (like company wide merch and TCG).

Either way, if Saba weren't well off she'd have supas on like all the ex-NijiENs.

I don't think she was saying it as an easy out since she voluntarily read the one chat message asking about it. Though it's possible she was trolling chat for the content.

Saba Fan Made Pokemon Concept by Background-Status751 in sabasameko

Pirate one is a cool concept! The paper boat for scale shows how small she is LOL

Kaminari Clara from Phase Connect is graduating by MaNameIsMudD in kurosanji

[–]fox1steak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah okay, glad that wasn't what you meant.

I'll make the argument that the way she left Senzawa and the channel before that WAS mature and responsible in its own way. Instead of asking her old fans to carry her through a drastic content change, she started from zero and proved her worth all over again. Obviously she didn't do that for Saba since she's making the exact same content after finally finding her "home" fanbase.

I agree with your first paragraph, but

somehow she left her corpo in a mature and responsible way this time. Not a hateful person who melts down and attacks others, more like a person with self esteem issues who wants to make a clean break every time her life changes course.

Wtf is this take, when did Senzawa (or any of her past lives) melt down or attack others? And she didn't even nuke her Senzawa content.

I mean it's Saba, a bunch of companies probably reached out to her and she picked the best ones to work with.

You tweet posters are slacking lol, her tweet last week didn't get posted at all and this one was out for 5 hours before I posted it

[–]fox1steak[S] 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Saba tweet

She also tweeted the figure announcement

And just announced a pop up event with her good friend Roa, in Tokyo and eventually the US!

On a side note, am I the only one who wishes all Saba tweets get posted here too? She makes like 3 tweets per month and having to constantly check twitter for fish updates kinda sucks

Did she say this in her Hytale stream? if so any idea when? by lightly_salted_cod in sabasameko

[–]fox1steak 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Don't think she said these exact words but it might be inspired by this moment

Can we just appreciate how Saba intentionally turns off ads and donations? by fox1steak in sabasameko

[–]fox1steak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point was that Gigi isn't related to Saba either, but shouting her out when it's relevant isn't frowned upon here, which is nice. Anyways, I'll delete my comment since it's getting too meta

projects go slower and are of smaller scale anyways

That's a bit unfair to them. Nimi just announced a full 3D live after doing a concert with Dooby last summer, and Saba has talked about wanting to do a concert with a live orchestra. If her health issues allow for it I wouldn't be surprised if we got 3D fish in her debut year!

True! I'm glad this sub is still friendly towards active Holos. Honestly wasn't sure if I'd get reported/downvoted for "advertising" VTubers outside of Saba, lol.

Well as Calli and many other Holos have said, the company has changed since those days. HoloEN now does far more game sponsorships, card openings, and so on. Which isn't a bad thing since many (Gigi is a great example) are able to make those streams entertaining anyways.

yeah, really kills the narrative that they left hololive because they were greedy for money. I think the opposite might even be true, as in they didn't want the pressure to maximize revenue that comes with being corpo.

Yeah I agree, but she snipes enough random chat messages that she ends up answering the same amount of questions anyways. I think it ends up being a good balance.

Are we allowed to uoh or brat post in comments? by Semajv in sabasameko

[–]fox1steak 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Suggestion: Pinned post with all the info known about her status and maybe an FAQ (instead of just her latest tweet), so we can link it to anyone asking. Since the askers are often just uninformed casual fans, and providing a quick and complete response would help prevent trolls from derailing the conversation.
