But for someone like her like any indie that gets into a corpo, the thinking is that having the resources of a big Japanese company would provide her with more opportunities she can't really get being an indie and faster ramp of growth when she is able to be a representative of the company and grow with the company's fanbase being a serious multiplier on who she can reach. Obviously, that's not how the power dynamic works with Nijisanji sadly as we all know, the company monopolizes and belittles the talent saying they are nothing without the company.
It did not help that XSOLEIL was flopping relative to expectations though because it was thought it was going to save the downhill trajectory from Noctyx and Yugo's graduation and Yugo's graduation with no stream was probably the beginning of the end there.
Had she known what would've happened, she would've never taken the job. It put a permanent black stain on her record so she'll never be able to work with a Japanese Vtuber company ever again and it's a shame when she knows Japanese that fluently like all of the girls in XSOLEIL did and she hampered her indie career to work for Nijisanji and had to regrow her audience and indie career for the rest of the year to even reach back to where she was headed or to get back to "status quo" with where Zaion's subscribers were. Not saying that her formerly being in Nijisanji didn't help with her getting 100k but it would've been better for her to have gotten them organically with a clean record than where she is now.
