>>6080350>But I haven't seen what the opposite of a final yab could be. Any ideas?Background rrat: Coco's membership/monetization closes on the day some part of her actual contract [or potential non-compete, if that's even a thing in JP] expires. Betcha kson won't have a new Live2D model or persona until then.
A few months after that, once they realize that even with the dent in her numbers, kson's bottom line has improved, the chuubas with even remotely known roommate accounts do not renew their contracts with Cover and/or renegotiate far more in their favor.
Some choose to follow alternative career paths instead, if they can manage it. Most will fail. Korone stays.
Some, like Kiara, stay because it's the best damn gig they've ever had. EN offers Gura an unholy amount of money to stay. Mori leaves.
Cover does not go the way of upd8, but still takes a hit and slowly becomes less relevant over time. "Tech company" mein tuchus, can you license or use their tech? No.
The gals with sufficient paypigs and talent do alright for themselves. The rest drift off into irrelevance, like AiPee did.
