>>66137645Keeping the archives up isn't common practice. The decision to keep the archives intact is usually left to the talent and most decide to private/remove everything except maybe for some covers or original songs. That's the case with most JP agencies at least.
>And "graduation" doesn't even imply "retiring the character" in the first place, it technically just means "leaving a group or corpo".That's exactly why calling it graduation is stupid. Unless you can take your vtuber persona with you and continue on as an indie or in another agency, "graduation" means that your story/life has come to an end.
>>66139317>And the idea of a graduation is to move on to the next point in your lifeThat's what I'm trying to say. Btw, I'm talking about graduations in context of the vtuber character and not the person behind it. If the person behind the vtuber wants to quit or reincarnate, then I'd like for them to make a lore accurate reason why they're quitting and not call it graduation because the character itself isn't moving on but effectively dies. If a vtuber says they're going to graduate, then I'm expecting them to still keep playing the character, but go indie or something along those lines.
