>>90387429>Q&A: The risk of losing talent>Question: I think the impact of Minato Aqua's graduation is a cause for concern.From the outside, I feel that it is difficult to understand how the IP rights of VTubers are handled after graduation. Could you tell us about that?
>Kaneko: The IP rights of the affiliated VTubers still belong to the company after they graduate. When someone works as a VTuber for our company, not only the superficial IP rights, such as their name, but also related production assets such as music and videos are accumulated by the company.>We think that the situation where the company's IP rights make it easier to promote continuous business growth through the accumulation of content has not changed.>We think that in order to minimize the risk of losing high-profile talent, it is important to strengthen the company's competitive advantage and emphasize the benefits of working with the company to create content.>Our competitive advantages include a brand that has attracted a great deal of attention since its debut, a global fan community, an infrastructure of facilities such as one of the largest motion capture studios in Japan, a production system that can also hold large live concerts, and the ability to bring fans back through cross-selling via large-scale product development such as trading cards.These strengths as a company will form the basis for continued brand growth, and we will continue to focus on strengthening them.
i fucking called it!
