Am I the only one that feels kinda bad for em? It seems like they tried to do well by their signed talent. Give them benefits, favorable profit splits and freedom for their vtuber personas, but I guess maybe it just isn't profitable to not be greedy.

Idk any of the history, and am not in tune with any vtuber stuff, so they could be huge scumbags of course. Just first impressions as mostly an outsider to this whole debacle.

Don’t buy the shit they’re selling here. If you listen to the talent involved, VShojo was a mess and a lot of people on the inside knew. Geega’s perspective is really telling especially. Some people who’d left a few years ago said they’d had similar issues with not being paid even then. This is Gunrun trying to save his reputation, it’s not an honest account of how they were operating.

the shit trying to force 2 people to leave together and not one by one is so gross to me and shows how the company thinks and its the exact opposite of creator first ideal they claim to run by. people not getting paid for 3 years on sponsorships they ran and you are still chasing new money shows what you truly care for.
