>>4672841Scizo-radar is literally the most powerful capability any entertainment company can have.
Cover knows they're one major slip-up from The Big Yab, and they know the vtuber bubble will pop eventually. Even assuming they maintain the popularity they currently have, the girls are eventually going to age and tire and not be able to do 3~5 multi-hour streams a week, or just want to retire in general.
The ability to maintain strong goodwill with the fans relies heavily on maintaining the trust that the fans have with the content Cover promotes, including the quality and attitude of its talents. This is why the Taiwan incident is so impactful (yes, "Is", not "was"). A single utterance by two vtubers sent an entire regional branch careening over the edge and permanently affected the company's ability to hold position in a market that is now completely lost to them forever. Sure, in that particular instance they lucked out and found a stronger market elsewhere, but just because you get a damn good prosthetic replacement doesn't mean your arm wasn't cut off, even if it's arguably better than the original limb.
Schizos are the enemy of all entertainment. That's why cancel culture is so strong nowadays: it's scizos hunting people.
