>>71047379Phase owes so much of its growth from their indie "phase friends".
The other small corpos only really mingle with themselves (PixelLink with V4Mirai with V&U with Kawaii etc.), which makes all of them feel very closed off and almost incestuous. It's no surprise they're all left in the dust.
Phase would have been too, had the pink rabbit not laid the groundwork for open collaboration. It's hard medicine for some corpofags because they're the same twitch-oriented crowd Vshojo takes for granted, but has always been up for grabs.
