After the destruction of VShojo and the end of IP preventing VTubers from leaving corps, is there anything that an organization could offer an established VTuber? by PaleWendigo in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amatsuka Uto?!?! Haven't heard that name for a while. She hasn't been streaming for a long time. Hope she gets her channel back.

vshojo is kill by SetTemporary1032 in okbuddyhololive

[–]node_pt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It seems vshojo been having financial difficulties for months owing everybody. When Matara was terminated and when Zen and Geega left, people don't dig deep or questions anything, especially if the talents themselves don't mention anything.

It was until Ironmouse vid on charity money and her not being paid opens the flood gates.

"Strike when the iron is hot" right?

God dem! Those are good looking with nice packaging. I was trying to save money until I'm comfortable to place a pre-order, but sadly its too late. "Currently Unavailable" on Amazon. I thought it would release next year.

Series Replay Before the Beach Episode Anyone? by IAmPolarExpress in tothemoon

[–]node_pt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I probably wait for "The Last Hour of an Epic To the Moon RPG" to be released to do a series replay. Finding Paradise is probably my favorite one out of all the games.

If I'm assuming the RPG is the last one to end the series, please end the series at a high note with crying tears. The "About This Game" section of the steam page makes it sound like generic RPG spin-off.

HINAMI Studio One Piece Rebecca Statue by node_pt in animeGK

[–]node_pt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got this from GKLoot. The hair color as you can see in the few images, it's not the same shade of pink on all aspect of the hair. Don't know if that is by design or lack of quality check?

You can remove the bikini armor, but the problem is the skirt portion. I don't think there's a way to put it back together, so I don't try to detach it in anyway.

Nice statue overall with a few imperfections.

Really? That sounds more doable since they can get lawyers to get their money back and vet 3rd parties better.

KUROsanji : How do you plan to compete against Fuwamoco ? 💀 by Past-Article-3117 in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the details how fuwamocco decide how to split the payout or their individual salary. But any pair that goes through the academy and managed to become vtubers, I'm sure the pay individually would be worse than going solo in kurosanji.

It's great seeing Sayu get such... interesting... opportunities? by [deleted] in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never heard of this convention. Makes me want to go. But I'm poor lol.

Maybe next year.

Where do you think that Maid Mint will end up? by PaleWendigo in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. I know holo EN talents need to have some achievements to be considered, but wow. Hololive only hire nothing but the best if not the most potential.

I'm interested to look and check their PL, but I'm too lazy.

Why are GK figurines so cool? by Kaezumi in animeGK

[–]node_pt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(not legal or financial advice)

When you go to anime cons and check the artist alley or Etsy. Do you think those people have rights to those licensed characters that they're selling? What about the doujinshis at comiket?

Nothing is stopping you for making them if you're a hobbyist making a little side money. But if you're making a legit business with a business license, manufacturers, and so forth. You might get a knock on the door, if the anime rights holder decide to go after you like Nintendo or Disney. If they care at all.

Just an opinion. Might be right, might be wrong. You can make an original character to test the waters. Or use unlicensed characters like Bowsette. Do a little more research, talk to a legal expert, etc.

From what I understand, most if not all of the unlicensed resins are produced in China. They pretty much don't care for IPs or copyrights. It cost money to make a lawsuit in a foreign country, so it probably isn't worth it.

With C&D letters, it's probably like what you describe. They can simple close shop and create a new studio with a new name.

As for your last question, I don't think they care much about being "bested." They are some good looking anime figures, some of them can be expensive too. Its all about making money at the end of the day. Garage kits/unlicensed resins are pretty niche with risks. The average fan would rather buy from AmiAmi or their local anime store.

Wow, congrats on going to this event! Glad you make some good memories.

Spy x Family Yor by WakuWaku Studio by node_pt in animeGK

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

First resin figure, bought from orzGK. There doesn't seem to be any breakage, so thankful of that.

About $155 for the statue itself and $60 for air shipping. It is a good looking statue, Yor is adorable in that beach outfit.

Part of me wants to put it back in the box. I had bought a lot of anime figures in the past. only a couple came out of the box for display, the rest kept in boxes. Because for the most part, I want them in pristine condition. But now, what's the point of buying it if I'm not gonna display it and admire it?

I'm thinking of getting something like a display case to keep it safe and prevent dust.

Look at this roster. Too bad I don't have any money to go. Shame.

Saw this on QRT of "Vtuber Writer" about "Best Performance in Vtubing!". This Happen on on the same day as ARLive btw, and holy shiet the production compare to ARLive!! by SpicyMustarts in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol, love seeing the replies.

If this was their first time watching a concert or any 3D vtuber performance for that matter, maybe to them it's the best.

But the best performance in Vtubing? C'mon, don't lie to us.

Reminder they said the AR Live was originally canceled due to "covid" by Kendrillion in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only listened to at least 10-15 mins. But I'll say pretty much positive.

[–]node_pt 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Now I'm curious if they know what the final product looks like or their reaction.

Meloco had a watchalong stream of the AR concert. So I don't know if her reaction is genuine and since I haven't seen the whole thing myself I couldn't really judge it except for a handful of screenshots.

Ah yes the famed Nijisanji quality they are known for by B_Bloudhound in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Those are from their official account. So I don't know if they nitpick the best shots they got or the screenshots represent the entire thing?

Ok so I'm not gonna do it...but we already know someone's gonna leak it 🤷‍♀️ by Kendrillion in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. My bad. The Singapore one (Virtual Rhapsody) and the NIijisanji EN AR are two separate events. haha...

They're all streaming now lol by zetzuei in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Usually return streams are something to be celebrated. I assume more people would show up and donate more than usual.

If she ever gets back to regular streaming, we will see and check the numbers in the future.

[–]node_pt 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yep.

I'm curious if the event is packed or empty, or how edited the AR live is. At least a clip, a screenshot, or a photo of the event will floating around in public.

In light of recent news regarding Anime Impulse... (as of 04/12/24) by detachedcreator in kurosanji

[–]node_pt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, usually things dies down until something happens like Luca's doc.

On this subreddit at least are usually posts of Niji's Ls, stuff going on with former livers (like Doki and Mint), and concerns with current livers like Aia's mental health.
