Even if their revenue goes up, how is this going to benefit the talents? Specifically, any talents outside of Japan. Is Riku going to announce a raise from merch cuts from 2% to 5%? I don’t know if it can fix much when some talents have meltdowns in the public eye. Or when they can’t follow the most basic rule on the internet, “don’t feed the trolls”. Money won’t exactly fix that.
The problem with EN’s fanbase too is that it went from Hololite with Lazusydia to adopting more ESLs with Ethyria, to straight up a lethal combination of ESLs, K-pop fags, shipfags and twitchfags with Luxiem. So they’re basically at odds with themselves constantly between people that want to stick with their oshis and people that feel like NijiEN should be one incestuous hive mind. And since plenty of sisters left NijiEN because they only want their oshis to be manwhores 24/7, that creates even more of a divide among fans
