>>53906761Honestly, I hope so too at this point. It's clear that Vesper and Magni are gone, so why the fuck Cover is just hiding it at this point is beyond me. We're past the point of anything major being "saddened" by their leaving, so just pull the bandaid off so we can all move on. Cover even went out of their way to get those two new models then they fucking dip. If I were pako papa, I'd be dragging Cover through the mud with the shit that has happened to him.
>>53911193Really was such a strong start of unity, but the cracks started to show the first time Vesper got suspended and it's all but gone now. At this point I'd say that Hakka is the only truly loyal to the others one left. Axel and Altare never really meshed 1 on 1, Altare really only seems out for himself and will collab with whoever if he sees benefit from it, Axel is just kind of there and would be better as a JP talent that does EN streams occasionally, Flayon is an extremely annoying little fuck with a horrible personality (or act, but if it is an act it needs to stop) and both Bettel and Shinri do absolutely fine on their respective own.
>>53932226Redesigns take a fair bit of time to do. Those new designs could have been from literally half a year ago and just got finalized. Contract renewal time was up and it's extremely reasonable to assume that one or both just weren't happy with their contracts / wanted more but Cover wouldn't budge so they're gone. The redesigns were already paid for and completed back before the contracts were renegotiated. So yeah, if they're fired / quitting they WERE pointless, but it's not like they were a spur of a moment thing and no, they do not point to them staying.
Likewise, I believe Coco had a brand new outfit and a brand new song literally after she announced her graduation, so again, your argument is moot.
The fact that Pako was literally on Twitter going "Hey, what the hell is going on?" tells me there's something serious enough happening that even the Cover adjacent people have no clue.
