>>67926624>Like if it was all above-board then why do they need to play dumb?Because the corpos they left want to keep up the pretense that if vtuber X left they're gone for good (even if, in practice, it's a farce) and are liable to go after the reincarnators with legal smackdown if they outright state "hey I'm vtuber formerly known as X"
>Yet if it needs to be kept secret/downplayed then why are they flaunting it so much?Because in the end it's to benefit of person reincarnating to hint who they were as much as they can without crossing the "going to get sued" line? They do want their fans back, if they could be open about it safely they would, but since they can they settle for the next best thing.
