>>76838804I got some complaints.
Didn't like how basically nothing was gonna matter because U-san would come in and run wild, brother. Made it felt like the whole tournament was a waste of time meant to wank Doki's ex-Niji friends. Don't get me wrong, I liked seeing the old gang back together, but the way they got put in the brackets leaves a sour taste in my mouth, which isn't helped by the fact that the brackets were hella rigged in the first place.
Vtubers having absolutely no taste whatsoever in reps was also moderately annoying, but that's just how the business is. I'm not even talking about /hfz/ not getting more reps; most chuubas had way better options than the ones they chose, even from non-/hfz/ creators. Hakka and Cy Yu were standouts here.
It's clear organization behind the scenes was not very put together. Doki told everyone weight differences wouldn't matter because she was disabling weight simulation, but she clearly did not. Mint said in her stream after the event that Doki didn't even extend an invitation until a few hours before the event. Doki mentions in the final day that all the exhibition winners get belts, but this is the first time that's mentioned and there's no special belt for them, they just get copies of the main championship belt. A lot of the participants didn't know important key details of the event (although that could easily be due to not caring). NOBODY understood the time investment to make a decent CAW.
A few people were clearly there to rub elbows with Doki in public, and did not care about the event itself or putting on a decent show.
Snuffy and CyYu both were absent/late for Day 1 to the point where Doki had to pull Takahata101 from his hiatus (while he was on a road trip, no less) to do way better announcing on his shitty travel mic than Cy Yu even bothered to do on Day 2.
Filian didn't even want to be there initially, but she warmed up to it pretty quickly.
I don't want anybody to think "god, anon HATED the show". I didn't. I quite liked the show, but I think people are a bit too soft on Doki because they haven't really seen how these shows get made. Doki is very good at the "DO IT LIVE" bit, but I also think a lot of these issues could've been effortlessly avoided if there was more than 2 weeks to prepare and a bit more pre-planning put in.
6/10, not bad, but fucking apply yourself.
