>>67963794My personal opinion is that niji can't get rid of her, and she's not willing to go voluntarily. Voluntarily ending it means she gets no compensation. Staying and doing nothing she'll still get royalties. In Japan you have to mutually separate or things get messy for the employer, that's why there's people at jobs who literally show up, stare at the wall, and then leave at the designated time, because the company don't trust them with work, the employee doesn't want to voluntarily resign, and the company can't terminate them without facing consequences. And before you throw around the "but contractors" yes this includes contractors.
People like in holo that "mutually" left such as mel, probably did so under the pretense that it was "honorable" to do so instead of be the black sheep.
