They signed three new streamers a few months ago and already one of them has walked.

Guess they realised that that company can't do shit for their talent and quickly jumped off.

Dont remember any of there talents but i guess the small corpo bubble is bursting, i guess 3 corpos have made it out of there and have the potential to keep functioning atleast (phase, idol, kawaii) then we have nijisanji which i believe people will still try for even if it's a shit place and hololive which might be looking for gen 4 talents but that's like 5/10000 chances and if they are debuting there 4th gen early expect them to close the audition for 2 years atleast unless some talents leave.

I’ve seen a lot of shorts in my recommended for this one, seemed like she was really grinding to get noticed. She was on twitch though which might’ve hurt her growth from youtube shorts a bit. Didn’t really seem like Kawa was doing that much for her other than a few conventions and some merch, barely saw any promotion that wasn’t directly from her channel.

My indie oshi applied for Kawa, they're deliberately hands off and only really help with merch

Do we know if they take any cut on stuff unrelated to merch? I’m not 100% familiar with how Kawa works.

Yah, they are basically there for extended services, sort of similar to Vshojo or previously Upd8 who collapsed a couple years back.
In the latter case, Upd8 did a bunch of other stuff too like sub their videos and other special stuff in fucking loads of languages. Even songs.
I remember seeing like 30 languages in the subs list of a Mei video I think it was
I miss Mei-chan... she basically never streams now, or posts.
I honestly think her and Gumi fell out when she stopped streaming as Gumi and moved to Choko, they don't have each other added now.

Could’ve been a buyout clause or something, it’d be pretty stupid if they just let them walk out with the model.

Literally small-corpo version of vshojo except with 2views instead of former 4view indies and corpo chuubas. They sell themselves on having the same kind of hands-off talent freedom and not owning the models.

The talents do get support it seems with managers and the like but it's up to them to actually use it to grow since kawa doesn't seem to have ad money.

Somehow were at animeexpo though.

I bet kawa regrets holding apps for gen 2 when the one talent they didn't work with before bailed.

Starting to see why VSJ doesn't do them anymore.

The only one in Gen 2 who worked with them before is Mino Mieko and last time I saw a stream she had 40 viewers.
In terms of growth, Kawa isn't really helping her. She has talent and would be better off somewhere else.
>>54915313
Because the Vshojo auditions were a scam and were never intended to be legit. I wouldn't compare them with Kawa.

Kawa business model is getting existing 2views to stream under their brand in exchange of a cut for supposelly help with promotions and stuff, it's a revolving glass door by design due the poor results from kawa

scam company but if they don't own the characters or don't have to spend money to design vtubers they can basically operate at zero cost and keep exploiting 2views that don't know any better

They don't operate on a cut of revenue. They just take from merch like vshojo.

Then why make an announcement.
These kinds of things are for when actual corpos (big or small) fire a talent or they quit.
If all they do is change managers nobody gives a shit

Correct me if I'm wrong but they don't give the talents their models. Kawa Entertainment opens auditions for people who already exist and already have all their assets and stuff. Then when you join Kawa Entertainment the only real thing that changes is the fact that you get to say you're apart of Kawa Entertainment. If you leave you don't have to give Kawa Entertainment anything because you owned it and created it so it isn't theirs to begin with.
