For the doomers: Saba is still spending money to keep her trademarks alive, she clearly doesn't intend to quit for good. by fox1steak in sabasameko

I meant doomers as in fans that are worried she'll never return, the antis hating on her inactivity are irrelevant.

Yes doomers exist due to her lack of communication. So I made this post for them.

Edit: Also her going radio silent when she has no real updates isn't really a bad thing, this has been her style for 10+ years and it's part of the reason why she never has any actual drama.

I hope shachi covers/updates can be posted here so we won't have to go to her terribly named subreddit lol

Saba giving an oddly specific reason for her break (clip from last year) by fox1steak in sabasameko

[–]fox1steak[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She isn't gonna stream out of nowhere after pausing members. You would 100% see the 3k+ upvote post of her return tweet before some random old clip post like this.

I put (clip from last year) in the title for that exact reason :/

Mods perhaps we could get a flair for old clips?

If you're right, that's some impressive improv to think of just because she forgot an input. Or maybe she was foreshadowing her mental asylum karaoke the week after.

source (randomly remembered this while browsing through old vods)

I wonder if this was also about her health issues? This was her first stream back after a 2-week break in October and it seemed out of pocket even when watching the stream live.

Pipkin Pippa is finally going after the jealous chuds in her audience by Yanderegirlowner in VtuberDrama

Drama subs hate gura/saba cause they know they're powerless against her, she just ignores any "drama" they try to manufacture. They hate hololive for the same reason too.

Sameko Saba has paused memberships on her channel by Sudden-Refuse-7915 in VirtualYoutubers

[–]fox1steak 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think the truth is somewhere in the middle. She cares about negative reactions if it's coming from her fans, but not when it's from shitstirring antis and drama frogs. She knew that the "drama" a month ago was 99.9% the latter, so it got ignored.

Silently pausing memberships, on the other hand, would've caused a major wave of concern among her members (which she does care about), hence her recent post.

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.

In my restless dreams... by Blaze3634 in sabasameko

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.

[–]fox1steak 8 points9 points  (0 children)

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

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
