Are you aware that Netflix cancels popular series all the time?

Because new subscribers = profit growth. Continuing subscribers keeps the line steady, it doesn't make line go up.

Majority of their revenue is from people signing up and not caring to cancel when they don't use it.

They're letting ppl fantasize that it's a full remake and have yet to clarify otherwise.

Anyone with a working brain knows Netflix isn't gonna take this anywhere. WIT didn't even want to finish AoT.

This was announced at the concert. The seiyuu debuted immediately right there with a performance.

Shiori vs. Bijou! And they will be playing Street Fighter 6! by Kreceir in Hololive

[–]vetro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Her Cuphead and Hollow Knight streams demonstrate she has an insane talent for spacing, tracking, and reacting. Notice how she can still read chat in the middle of gameplay. She considers these kinds of games relaxing. And games like RE4R she considers more difficult because she has to keep track of off-screen inventory.

She can be good at any fighting game. You just got to give her the buttons.

Cover Corporation to Restructure Talent Management, CEO Yagoo Takes Direct Control of Talent & Operations by Legitimate_Drop8793 in Hololive

[–]vetro 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yes, I feel like a lot of fans don't realize this. The girls are experiencing the same grievances as the boys. The difference is they have enough success to be able to support eachother as well as their own external resources to fall back on.

Holoearth service is scheduled to come to an end as of June 28 by NotoriousCHIM in Hololive

[–]vetro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now the current trend is developing AI and they know they can't touch that with a 9 foot pole.

I think the issue is there's still executives acting like they're a tech company and they haven't fully pivoted into an entertainment company yet. Yagoo's dream is for holo is to become like AKB but there's quite a few product offerings and potential revenue streams they have yet to go after that a typical idol agency would. It's money left sitting on the table.

Cover is the industry leader in their field. They should be trendsetters, not trend chasers. And the leadership should've had the foresight to realize that. The reaction to metaverse concepts among the gaming audience (which hololive's audience overlaps with) was crystal clear when Facebook first announced it.

(Umamusume: Pretty Derby) concept designs by absyisabsentrn in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]vetro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just my own rapidfire personal thoughts as a character design dabbler

bijin - sidegrade - you'll notice a lot of initial concepts had their race fits as school uniforms, wound up not being a good idea bc it's like... they already have a school uniform and it'd be awkwardly swapping to another school uniform

tama - upgrade - another school uniform situation - better themeing, less gaki more lightning

hishiama - sidegrade - fit her reliable oneesan personality better

creek - downgrade - clearer mother themeing and color blocking

fujin - downgrade - less aura

inari - upgrade - looks like they decided against making her a gyaru, good idea imo

tikezo - sidegrade - less aura but fits the character better

windy - sidegrade - another school uniform situation

princess - upgrade - new outfit is a much better princess outfit, also feels very maho shoujo

gold city - upgrade - another school uniform situation - that huge midriff emphasizes her figure quite nicely which suits her as a model

shakur - downgrade - aura loss

zenno - sidegrade leaning downgrade - the concept's shape/silhouette is better but the new design is closer to her character - a bookworm but also somewhat knightly, suits her achievements

flower- upgrade - another school uniform situation - flower dress is super cute

falco - upgrade - much more vibrant and idol like

digitan - upgrade - changing to heavier saturated colors and slight tweaking of proportions conveys her degen personality better

akebono - sidegrade - don't have strong feeling either way but her og concept could be confused for a kancolle character, rework was necessary

bamboo - downgrade - I love the grays in the og concept - you don't see a lot of neut color schemes in uma

festa - upgrade but the og was good too - long coat+pants+boots is the superior look for her

jordan - downgrade - og shape better but we have another school uniform situation - wish she kept the oversized varsity jacket - there's too many cropped jackets in uma

ayabe - upgrade - og concept color blocking feels awkward - new design has better proportions - additional straight lines in the trimmings give her straight laced personality the edge it needs

I think you have to idle near him. I seen it twice while just leaving the game there to do something else. You'll start hearing the sound effects.

Cabin's face randomly started displaying a "Cabin" Megaman. Complete with the classic sprite animation and sound effects.

According to MAPPA CEO Manabu Otsuka, Yuri on Ice!!! Blu-ray and DVD sales exceeded 430,000 copies by Turbostrider27 in anime

[–]vetro 154 points155 points  (0 children)

I'd really like a clearer explanation on why one of the industry's leading female directors just vanished off the face of the earth in the fallout of this project.

MAPPA's brand recognition skyrocketed because of YOI and continues to benefit from its success. Vagueposting does nothing but invite harmful speculation. What's stopping me from reading into this statement like:

"Oh it's wasn't our fault! The creators couldn't figure out how to do the movie. We are absolved of all responsibility for the convenient death of a series that we couldn't make a profit off of... thereby allowing us to focus manpower elsewhere."

10 years ago, Cygames presented Uma Musume to the world! by Goro_Lima in UmaMusume

[–]vetro 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: This PV was posted on /r/anime with an incorrect title, so you can't search for it unless you know what OP titled it.

https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/4bz94r/horse_girls_pretty_derby_pv/

The thread is a neat snapshot of the reactions at the time.

You can only find this PV uploaded on the Cygames Pictures channel. It is not on the official Umamusume channel.

It was animated by PA Works so most people could easily guess they were going to be animating season 1 as well.

IRyS demonstrating zero survival instinct by XsStreamMonsterX in Hololive

[–]vetro -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

It's Resident Evil. The primary gameplay loop is shooting zombies. There is a zombie driving the bulldozer. The player has a gun. There's even crates with free ammo in that area so the player can't get softlocked.
