>>82093998I don't think he's the pure evil cunt phasefags have tried to push for 2 years now, but he wasn't really a good vtuber CEO truthfully.
His main problem ending up coming down to:
>Extremely excessive advertising, having large indies do watchalongs really felt like a step too far. He really just threw money at whatever he could and hoped for the best instead of planning advertisement out.>Lack of handing a proper chain of command, reportedly he'd shuffle through several managers who were garbage at their job without directing them at all, leading to unsatisfied talents and artists hired not being properly paid.>Not pushing any real cohesion between gens. Outside of a clique or 2, Idol never really felt as connected of a corpo as something like Phase and he never did much to make them feel that way.>Merch situation, but desu just about every small corpo handles merch fucking horribly.>Ignoring talents who very obviously needed to be tard wrangled. Yuko and Poki were not only dragging their own reputation down with their actions, but the entire corpo with their yabs and attitudes. The one time he did try to...>Outright unprofessional handling of yabs. Riro was no innocent victim and you could honestly make a strong case for her termination being warranted, but the niji tier "transparency" hitless did nothing but make idol come off as petty and scathing. Didn't help that the management part of the yab which was easily the biggest was severely underplayed.>Constant pushing of Donothons. This practice has been long proven to be easily abused and almost impossible to properly deliver promises on. Pochi literally got away with scamming fans because of this, and almost everyone in idol did it at some point.All in all he tried, but it wasn't enough in the end. He worked hard to do right by everyone before leaving so I can respect him for that.
