Looks like Holostars will be getting Niji-style standardized merch from now on. The gravy train is over.
Don't be surprised if we see this change coming to the girls soon too. Looks like investors aren't happy with the IPO and want to trim the fat.

From Rikka's stream:
>birthday goods will be the same from now on for the members
>it's not clear if it's permanent but it's confirmed for birthdays this April
>Rikka doesn't regard it as a negative thing
>he asks for support in form of membership subscriptions and channel subscriptions
>his birthday will be the first one affected
>he was thinking about putting out a ring or another accessory to balance out his anniversary goods before the change
>he thinks the design and illustration for the goods turned out well anyways and asks for support
>they are allowed to release extra goods for reaching channel subscription benchmarks
>300k subs would be the next benchmark for Rikka
>goods are now once a year probably so there will be no goods in october (Rikka's anniversary month) as of now
>his goods this year will release on the 16th (his birthday celebration)
>he wanted to talk about it because he didn't want viewers to be shocked when it becomes apparent so he asked for an okay to talk about this
>anniversary celebrations itself will not disappear but it's up to the talent to celebrate it or not
>as of now Rikka wants to celebrate his upcoming anniversary but he will think about his concrete plans after his birthday
>Temma's birthday will be the next one affected
>anniversary streams are held because the talent wants to do so, after all there are talents that don't celebrate them, it has always been like that
>everyone's birthdates are different so the situation might be different for talents who were born in a different month
