ah, yes. Such reliable sources of info. I’m sure her antis aren’t going into those communities spreading doubt.

Of course I don’t believe blindly everything I read there. I heard the cheating story multiple times but I always shrugged it off (and will keep on doing it) since there was no proof.

And of course Vshojo can’t fire her for that, it’s not illegal or anything. It’s just a post on twitter, nothing legally binding about it. Still, I think she should’ve given priority to addressing that, instead of baseless rumors about her relationships (which honestly, even if they were true, are none of our business).

I don’t follow dramatubers either, I just get some info from this lemmy community or the corresponding subreddit.

And if she didn’t have the money she shouldn’t have made that post. Even just opening her twitter she has a LOT of posts with 30k likes or more, did she expect less from a post like that?

And that was just the first mistake, she doubled down by not making any public statement about it. Which sure, wouldn’t have mattered for the antis, but neither does this document about her relationships. Still, she preferred “clearing” herself of a baseless rumor rather than owning up to a mistake she might’ve made.

That’s not how you should act as a 400k-followers Internet personality. People are not divided between fans and antis, and even if they were, they can change their mind. I’d wager more people stopped being her fans over a missed donation than over a guy online spamming that she cheated on him (again, without any decent proof of that).

Sure, she didn’t steal any money, but pledging to make a (pretty big) donation and then never addressing the situation ever again is a pretty bad thing to do.

If the problem was about the specific charity she could’ve just donated to a different one, I heavily doubt that was the issue. Not making any public statement after all this time is basically telling people you lied and don’t want to donate (Again, I never watched a single stream of hers so I don’t know anything besides the occasional drama that pops up outside the VShojo sphere, but that’s definitely the impression it gives me).

Links here use the syntax[text](link), the link feature just brings up the parentheses for commodity.

(Also, this is required for linked text, if you just want to post the link you can do it with no syntax like you did in the current post)

Hey, I’m kinda late because I just finished catching up with posts/streams (except ENreco because I have absolutely no idea where to start, but nevermind), I just wanted to say thanks for all the posts so far, and (a late) good luck for the mining!

(You got the formatting wrong for the link, it links to nowhere right now)

But yeah, Reunion has a different flavor now too…

I’m assuming it’s because there isn’t much she could say besides “it’s not true”. You can’t really “prove” that you didn’t cheat on your husband 20 years ago.

And honestly, might just be me, but I don’t really care that much if it happened or not. I just find it odd that both sides are accusing each other of pretty bad stuff, but neither actually brought the case to court. Makes me think they probably both benefit from the full story not being known.

Preface: I know next to nothing about any VShojo talent that isn’t Kson or Henya. Only read some stuff about the others on the Vtuber sub and other places. Correct me if I’m getting things wrong.

The document doesn’t really say anything about her cheating, right? And if we were to believe what she’s saying, it wouldn’t even be the worst thing about that relationship.

Isn’t this just a “he said she said” situation? Neither party brought any definite proof, right? Why is everyone here so sure that she’s the one in the wrong?

(And tbf, even if she actually cheated on her husband for no reason, I think the charity thing is still far more damning. Like, you post something like that, get 50k likes and never talk about it again? Did she think people would just forget about it?)

I don’t know, they do say it’s the end of “regular release of new merchandise” too, so if they do release something it’s gonna be an extremely rare occurrence.

Also, it would keep being less and less “marketable” if she stops streaming (and therefore gaining new fans). I doubt it’s just for marketing and merch, as others said, I find it more likely that it’s just leaving the door open for potential cameos in important occasions (that might have merch tied to them, sure).

The definitions of several concepts are fuzzy, and therefore can be circumvented or challenged or abused by all sides of the equation.

They are, but it’s not like they’re very definite nowadays either.

What is a ‘similar product’ that is allowed after 30 years (and therefore what is a ‘dissimilar product’ that would be forbidden before),

I’d say “similar product” is anything that doesn’t try to pass off as the original one, and is mechanically different enough. Palworld for example, or all the other Pokéclones that popped up in recent years.

how would a non-profit that just pays high salaries to its managers fare between the marks of 30 and 50 years (and just gives some little money to research or charity).

They wouldn’t, in that period I’d allow stuff like piracy or free cultural events, stuff like that. Obviously the copyright holder would still be able to profit off of their own products, but everyone else would have to ask them to do so.

And again, why give artists and creative companies so much more time of IP protection than we give STEM inventors and companies time in patents (this random site claims patents last 15 to 20 years only) ?

Because those are things that humanity needs to progress. I do think they could be longer in a different way, like “they can be used by anyone without consent from the inventor, but they need to pay a small percentage in royalties” or something like that, just to ensure they have a permanent source of income that’s enough to live off. I’m not knowledgeable enough about that to talk though, so I can’t really answer that question without going into baseless speculations.

The fact that it’s not a “real” graduation (while also not going to staff) seems to imply she might come back for special events or something?

Yes, that’s what it seems like. Calli’s last stream also seems to imply we’ll “understand more” in the next days, but maybe that’s just me inhaling too much ~~concoction~~ copium.

At least we still have https://watsonamelia.com/

Thanks, I needed this :’)

Update: no, she’s not gonna be part of the staff. Well, not any more than she already was
