>>23011758It was dead from the second that it was revealed that the talents would be reviewing people and "seeing if they work" AKA only even considering friends AKA anyone who isn't already one would fail ASAP. And most of said friends are either already signed with someone else or have no desire to join a company that has openly shit the bed consistently since arguably even before its conception. Even Snuffy, a member more honorary than even Kotone is to Hololive or Tenkaiji to Nijisanji, openly said she didn't wanna join Vshojo in specifics between the things she's seen and the little behind-closed-doors stuff she's seen. Shit, the tech support issues surrounding Melody could be its own word-capped post and still not cover everything, and you don't want to have the """leader""" of the most popular vtuber group on Twitch take 6 whole fucking months to get non-broken arm rigging.
All of this ignoring the badwill they've gathered through Vei "make up random shit and pretend like I'm Xqc" Baeya, who is ALSO the person that'd give the most hard-line "no"s out of the entire group for said auditions for the most petty reasons. It's dead, Jim.
