>>70700165It would heavily depend on the Japanese bankruptcy process. In the US, when a company goes bankrupt, a trustee may be appointed by the courts to liquidate a company's assets and ensure the company's creditors recover the maximum amount possible.
So if Japan has any kind of trustee system that oversees companies being liquidated, Riku's and Anycolor's opinions of their ex-Livers will have zero impact on the sale of the company's assets. The sole thing the trustee would care about is maximizing the returns for all of Anycolor's creditors. If they judged the best way to get money was to sell the vTuber models and rights to ex-Livers, they'd absolutely do it.
Again, I know zip about Japanese law, so I have no idea if their courts appoint trustees at any point during their version of bankruptcy and what authority the trustee has to act in liquidating a company's assets. But I assume there must be something like this in Japan.
Any law or /biz/ anons with knowledge of this area, please chime in.
