>>66838407Honestly, it surprises me how the predominant response seems to be "they had to fire her, even if they din't want to." What good is it to practically be a slave to your contracts, and never make any exceptions when you really want to? Besides this is Mel, someone who lost, what, a year at least due to sexual harassment from a management member? Here in the country I live those are grounds for her to have sued Hololive, yet it doesn't seem like she did because she loved it, and wanted to be part of its future. If anyone in that entire group deserved a second chance, it was Mel.
So I refuse to believe Cover had no choice. There's always a choice, and it choose to terminate her. Wheter that was the right decision or a bad one, is up to each person and largely to be seen, but whatever she did, Cover choose to use the contract breach as grounds to terminate her, it wasn't like an action/reaction of nature itself, like throwing a stone and having a glass shatter. There come times where you need to take a stance and go "no, this isn't the future I want", and Cover simply didn't do so this time.
