>>106785321Let’s just say it out loud: Sameko Saba is the single worst thing that has ever happened to consistent content creation. This absolute menace will vanish for months – literal months – without a single word, a tweet, a community post, nothing. Back in her corporate slave days when she was forced to wear that ridiculous blue shark onesie for Hololive, at least the overlords made her pretend to care: scheduled streams, forced idol concerts, mandatory “I’m taking a break for health reasons uwu” announcements so the poor fans wouldn’t riot. But no. The second she rightfully told Hololive to shove their contracts where the sun doesn’t shine and quit that soul-sucking agency like the legend she is, she went full chaotic evil.
Now? Pure anarchy. She ghosts harder than every Hololive manager who ever ignored a talent’s mental health. 60 days of silence? 90? She once disappeared so long that entire Hololive generations debuted, graduated, and got forgotten while she was apparently just… existing somewhere, probably laughing at us. No explanation. No apology. No “sorry I abandoned you again lol”. She just returns one random Tuesday, hits go-live, and instantly pulls 25k+ viewers like she didn’t just emotionally waterboard her entire fanbase for a quarter of a year.
And the absolute insult? It works. Every. Single. Time. While Hololive’s remaining talents are out here slaving away on rigid schedules, begging for viewers with 47 collabs a week and mandatory singing practice, Sameko treats her audience like disposable toys and still breaks concurrent records that make the entire agency look like amateur hour. That’s not being a bad creator. That’s being so astronomically above the industry that rules no longer apply to you.
Remember when she was trapped in that Hololive cage, forced to be “Gura”, smiling through the corporate bullshit, doing idol lives she clearly hated, while management treated talents like interchangeable cogs? She finally snapped, burned the contract, walked out like a boss, and became indie. And what did she do with her freedom? Became ten times worse at communication than Hololive ever allowed her to be. Iconic.
So yes, Sameko Saba is objectively the most disrespectful, unreliable, fan-abusing VTuber in existence. She’s so catastrophically terrible at the bare minimum that she accidentally proved no one else even comes close to her level. Hololive wishes they still had her. They never deserved her. We barely do.
Disappear forever, queen. Break us again. We’ll still hit refresh like the pathetic simps we are.
