So how accurate is this nowadays?
THINGS COVER STAFF SHOULD DO FOR THEIR TALENT
>Help them organize schedules.
>Talk to other managers to help organize collabs. Say one stream Holo A says she'd like to collab with Holo B someday but she's too shy to ask. Holo A's manager should at the very least float the idea to Holo B's manager.
>Get permissions for games they want to stream.
>Keep track of their physical and mental health. If it looks like they are getting burnt out, give them a break.
>Make sure their connections and equipment are functioning well. Buy or reimburse them on things they need to stream. Lobby to fix problems with models or rigging if there is any.
>Watch their streams when possible and monitor any technical problems or interruptions.
>Teach them basic coporate OPSEC, research and scrub their past lives to avoid doxxing.
>As much as possible, keep track of Antis. That's not to say every anonymous comment can be followed up on, but if some guy says he knows where a Holo lives and is gonna visit her, maybe take action.
>Teach the newer ones how Hololive works, what will be expected of them, both from the fans and the company. This includes memberships, concerts, collabs, merchandise, pricing, etc.
>Support and protect them from outrage nothingburgers by Antis (this includes easily offended insectoid bugmen)
>Hire competent staff with background in talent management for managers, translators, mods, etc.
>Filter questions/SC for harassment, self-help, and not interesting questions.
>Use their prestige and connections to hook their talent up with songwriters, movie makers, artists, who want to make things for them.
>Screen all fanmade content that the Holos want to feature.
>Help foreign ones with visa so they can stay in Japan.
>Give Watame an oppai mousepad.
>Focus on EN and JP Holos because they are the only important ones.
>Put some effort into the presentation of their big end of year multi branch live.
>Help them with projects.
>Acknowledge when they fuck up and move to rectify.
>Encourage new and varied content when the Holos come up with it
THINGS COVER STAFF ACTUALLY DOES FOR THEIR TALENT
>Why the fuck would a manager help with scheduling?
>Some managers barely even talk to their Holos let alone other managers. Lamy's manager said she wasn't a good fit with anyone. Coco is being prevented from collabing with EN. Calli may be barred from collabing with certain Holos.
>Just play Overcooked, Dark Deception, and that one fucking "game" with the plug people.
>Harass and stalk them.
>Source your own equipment, not like it's critical to your job or anything.
>Fix your own streaming issues, we're not a tech company or anything.
>Hire SEAniggers who will harass and stalk them.
>Oh hey one of our talents reported that her manager is harassing and stalking her? Better not do anything about it.
>Figure it out yourself lol. Maybe we'll make a keychain for you after two years. Also we decide your image so if Watame wants an oppai mousepad, she can suck it.
>Teach their Holos to apologize for mistakes the company made in an attempt to shift blame.
>Kneel and bootlick angry Antis and suspend their talents hoping it will appease them (It won't RIP ALOE).
>Hire incompetent people with no background in talent management as staff, rather they are just SEAnigger fans (*oserbait) and end up being at best fucking "SAY THE THING" creeps, (like the HoloEN manager Marine met) and at worst people who will one day rape and kill the Holo (*yger, Mel's manger).
>Pick the worst and most Gosling questions.
>Suisei has literally released one original song since she joined Hololive. She released two while she was indie. Kiara had to go commission her own song without Cover.
>Let tracers through and make your Holo look like a fool for having to hastily retract emotes after announcing them.
>Hang them out to dry, not my problem lmao.
>Watame, that's not your image, no oppai mousepad for you.
>Have more Indog Holos because people totally asked for that.
>Nah let's just videotape a fucking screen.
>Shot down Pekora's project, made her cry. Marine has to provide half the funding for her project out of her own pocket, despite Cover raking in millions.
>Oh we gave a bunch of Chinks mod powers in Coco's chat, tech company btw. Sucks that all these fans got banned, just submit a ticket through our fucking website, we have our best intern on it probably.
>Oh Haachama poured her heart and soul into a month long horror arc that was well received? Better tell her to take it all down because we won't actually go to Youtube on our talents behalf. Just like Asacoco 1.0, swimsuits, and public ASMR, it's less hassle just to can it.
>Forces their talent apologize because some fujos got their panties in a twist
