>>107017100Shachi is in the difficult situation of having the precedent of several lying pos vtubers (like Mint) claiming "I'm retiring hurrr I totally don't wanna be an indie" only to return anyway, and at the same time Nimi the grifter trying to rope her into her shitty forced "indie avengers" meme.
That's why she'll continue getting treated like one because they don't want to take her at her word.
