Mel still doesn't have a nenodroid despite being a few months away from her 5-year anniversary, by the way.

Well the EN whores should have worked more, had better attitudes and played ball more
Imho they should just put down the entire EN branch except for Kiara and Irys and transfer them into JP

Maybe Mel should have let managersama get a taste instead of being a little bitch and complaining.

>80%+ of cover's profits come from japan
>don't have to worry about interantional shipping or international relationships
>90% of their audience is in a cingle city so they can sell good locally
>Japanese predatory business practicess are normal and japanese fans don't complain about them (see Mori's album incident for refference)
>have access to the studio
I don't even watch them but it makes a lot f sence from a company stand point to support them way more than EN.

HoloX has been showered in 2D/3D outfits so it is getting strange that they are neglecting the EN branch. Council has to be demoralized at the way they are getting treated.

>>37834159
Flare didn't like the design. Cover's policy of not giving hololive talents a choice with the model/outfit has been a disaster on several levels. They are a billion dollar corporation and they could easily reach a compromise with the talent before the model/outfit gets finalized.

You say EN when you mean council. Myth already has nendos, pop up parade and figma coming. And listing all of the 3d stuff is disingenuous since aside from their original outfits the swimsuits and everything else are just copies of the outfits the rest of JP uses. EN is supposed to be going to japan in December, they should be getting all of theirs then.

Irys has been getting fucked over HARD by Redjuice. If he hadn't taken this long waiting for the redesign then she'd likely have 3d already.

I don't care as long as they treat IRyS well from now on. She's like watching a JP vtuber in English and I clearly have been living in the dark for the past year.

Well maybe if Cover released her music is literally unmarketable in the West outside of a hyper niche group, they would have moved her over to JP where her music has a broader appeal. Plus no more of those E4L translated songs she is forced to since.

Even though Good Smile hasn't announced a Mel nendo, there was a Hololive stream way back where they said all of Gen 1 were getting them. Just the other day GSC showed a Choco sculpt even though they never announced her nendo either.

Its just that overseas fans were unaware of Japan's practice of having "Limited Edition" and "Special Store Bonus" during first sales of product, so foreigners make lots of noise because they're missing out on merchs. I think Universal were handing out Calli's autograph with her first album, only for japan pre-order since it was a Store Bonus, with no obvious way for foreigner to order it.

Yeah, Japan's marketing seriously like to throw "Store Bonus" or " Limited Edition" or "Premium" or "Exclusive" everywhere. If you are type of fan who absolutely wants everything, you are absolutely fucked in Japan

HololiveJP absolutely pushing through HoloX as a group. On the same vein, UPROAR is also being pushed forward by HolostarsJP. I remember when HoloX was first announced, they somehow got merch of them ready for C99. In terms of being "idol", HoloX is definitely the most idol-like project from Hololive

Oh yeah. Japan's marketing is fucking insidious. You will see lots of "train-station exclusive" or "special flavor" of products in Japan. There are "Narita-special Tokyo Banana", and there are "Haneda-special Tokyo Banana", "Yokohama station special Tokyo Banana", etc.... collectors are absolutely milked in Japan.

If Calli gets big enough, I bet she will have more variation of pre-order bonus. Tower Records will have its own special bonus, Amazon JP will have different special bonus, etc. Most big japanese game release are like that.

Most of the things listed all JP girls got it at the same time, also I have been told that the EN branch is held at a different standard and that they should not be treated as the main branch multiple times for 2 years (by management and their fans), so what are you so upset about now?

As a guy who enjoys collecting things that sounds like heaven if you have a lot of money and like a kick in the nuts if you don't.
