Did Grimmi just start her grifting arc? I know this is a few days late and I should probably just have asked people on lig but I'm not really in the mood dealing with batposter, so here we go.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS0KfBL-uv0Clip:
https://files.catbox.moe/ac5pk8.mp4So based on her latest Youtube stream (Funeralopolis? Clip started around 00:11:10), I don't think she's even close to joining Hololive. Mainly because of these few things:
>Somewhat unprofessional hiring staff that didn't help her or only gave vague answers.This part is way too on topic with the current rrats, mainly about incompetent staff surrounding Hololive talents. The thing is, especially for big companies, they most likely have different people with different sets of skills working as hiring staff and talent managers. So it's either that Cover is so incompetent as a company that they keep hiring useless people or Grimmi is just making up stuff based on her own experiences working with smaller or dogshit companies and trying to apply that knowledge to this situation.
>Weird-ass contract negotiation.Like seriously, Cover is willing to adjust them specifically for her? Don't get me wrong, I thought she was really talented and could basically make any games she played entertaining, but let's be honest here: she's not THAT good.
>Promise about making a ton of money.And this is another iffy one. Huge companies rarely feel the need to mention that their high-earning talents will make a lot of money, mainly because they just did. For them, this kind of thing is a matter of fact rather than something they need to say or even promise to their potential talents.
>Her bad feeling she talked about on stream and in her deleted tweet + the timing.I'm going to be honest, I always thought that she was talking about other companies or even different kinds of work whenever she discussed this topic on stream, but at this point she's just plainly grifting.
So based on all of that, my rrat is:
>Grimmi knew someone big is going to graduate and possible reasons for that person's graduation, but not really a specific one.>Started talking about graduation stuff on stream before the graduation stream, with added comments about bad feelings plus weird stuff like shady contract negotiation and useless hiring staff (she never mentioned this stuff before).>She's most likely banking on the fact that most sane people won't refuse Hololive, so she always uses a flimsy excuse like she really couldn't talk more about this stuff on stream, implying NDAs. Except for the fact that she did talk more on that stream.>At this point she's most likely already too deep in her own delusion and started grifting harder with that tweet. Forgetting the fact that outside of her own community, people can smell her grifting attempt.>Deleted the tweet.So did the 4views status and hanging out with a bunch of BIG vtubers finally get to her head? Also beyond this part is where I'll start to rrat harder, just saying.
Here's the funny part, she's a Nijisister (also a vegan), but somehow out of current or ex-members, she's somewhat fixated on Hex/not-Hex (Kyrio), mentioning his channel and games he played here and there while also asking people to follow his channel. You know the #cut4hex guy? I just thought it's weird how as a person that has been dealing with her own mental problem, she would verbally support a streamer like that.
>There's way too much of it but here's her voting for Hex/Kyrio on VTuber award (Slitterhead stream on Twitch, clip started around 04:36:21)https://files.catbox.moe/5ldo0z.mp4It's also kind of an open secret that the majority of indie vtuber have their own clique, the thing is I just realized that it goes beyond Discord chatting or smaller group hanging out together lol. Here's Grimmi mentioning that she often greets other anxious people at vtuber parties.
>latest Youtube stream (Funeralopolis?) Clip started around 01:39:18https://files.catbox.moe/aa84wt.mp4Now, could all of this grifting be related to Niji's grassroots bullshit from a few months ago? That thing where a fleshstreamer out of nowhere started talking shit about Doki and got lashback from her own chatter? I don't fucking know lol maybe an actual schizo can pick up this rrat and expand it or something.
Also bonus clip I guess, she got drunk and talked deeply about corpo stuff but in the last Niji section the VOD got manually muted (there is no pop-up about DMCA muting some part of the stream).
>Twitch stream Halloween Marathon, Clip start around 01:00:25, it's 20-ish minutes long by the way.https://files.catbox.moe/mernmd.mp4
