>>65798105I'm gonna use a pretend hololive scenario as an example here.
While Holo was already growing, gen 3's debut really was where Cover as a whole blew up, they had mass appeal and really were one the tipping point for Hololive becoming the dominant corpo
Imagine an alternate timeline where during the peak of their success starting off, the rushia NDA and dox fiasco happened a few months after.
Then imagine the rest of gen 3 as a collective deciding to all leave Hololive at the same time soon after rushia is fired. Then imagine them all setting up an indie group with a website, branding, commissioned art/assets and similar but not copyright breaking 2D models to their former Holo ones. All of this being done so fast that it implies it was set up at least a few months before the actual graduation.
OP pic rel is basically that, She's part of the indie group V-DERE and basically does the same kind of ASMR/GFE content as when she was in Kawaii.
The entire situation is weird as unlike most yabs like Zaion or Rushia, both sides look extremely shady.
