[45 / 4 / 1]
Took a day off from internet to process Aqua's graduation news. So any rrats? I dont know anything but here some thoughts of mine: -Aqua probably doesnt agree with whatever Cover planning to do, thus the "creative differences" reason. Probably about coming back to China thingy, and Cover wanted Aqua to do it since she is loved there. -Aqua declined it -Cover probs bullying Aqua for that. Aqua missed in a lot of projects in recent years. -She wasnt there in HoloxDeco27 eventho she covered and sang a lot of their songs, but well, still not that unusual. -But she was missing on the next holofest collab, Honeyworks one, which Aqua already confirmed it was one of her dream to collab with them (Aqua was already featured on honeyworks album before and got an OG from them), and how fitting Aqua's character to be in Honeyworks song... and all of that, Aqua was not included. Thats 2 years in a row where like 3/4 of all JP members joining in. -She also never got her anniv/birthday live on the exact date, and some of it was cancelled too. Honestly it felt sus, so give me some rrats.

>Cover is now listed as part of the Growth Market in the Tokyo Stock Exchange starting today, March 27th 2023 You can basically think about everything bad that public profit companies do and those are the reasons. Hololive was based on integrity and its own moral code, public companies are just cashcows and this probably doesn't sit well with many Hololive members.

>>82404854 Schizo rrat: Hololive is going back to doing business with China, they said "Aqua Gomenne~ <3" and she left
Boring and most likely rrat: Management wanted her to stream even less for idol activities, the straw broke the camel's back and decided it was time to move on

>>82405268 Aqua liked doing idol activities retard

>>82405268 Aqua loved idol shit I don't know why this stuff gets repeated ad nauseam, the thing that probably bothered her is the amount of paperwork and pressure a big streamer in Holo has. People like Pekora can manage that shit Aqua couldn't even after taking a long hiatus.

>>82405339 She liked streaming too. What she didn't like was the priority on one to the detriment to the other.

>>82405346 >I don't know why this stuff gets repeated ad nauseam Because catalogniggers are the worst. They either keep repeating that or they keep trying to push the angle that other talents engaged in some kind of quiet bullying circle around her. There was even a thread I saw a couple hours ago where a guy went

>have the option to just go on indefinite leave and collect fat paychecks to give your company time to correct itself >fucking QUIT your lucrative do-nothing job instead Brain broken moment- Aqua is not some envelope-pusher getting their weird projects blocked by corporate. Seems more like she got her feelings hurt and has too big of an ego after being so popular for so long and thinks she can do better.

>>82405387 This. People keep saying that they don't understand why people keep saying this but they don't comprehend that people need balance. If it's thrown out of balance, it can quickly turn into a negative. Not sure why that's so hard to comprehend unless you've never worked before.

Maybe she just doesn't like the growth of Hololive into this big company? This is my completely off the cuff prediction, but expect her to reappear in another japanese idol vtuber agency similar to what Cover was 4 years ago.

>>82405221 Retard. Thanks to being public, Cover can build the 3D studio and make even more deals as a public company
I hate corporation as well, but downplaying their financial advantage is kinda disingenuous

>>82405550 Ah yes, just what we need. Even more 3D concerts and more investors to have an even harder stranglehold on the industry.
There are definite financial advantages but they absolutely come with a lot of cons.

Remember how suddenly Gamma got terminated? Holo has a lot of skeletons in their closet.

>>82405805 the change is how corporate and sanitized they are now compared to the beginning when most holos joined

>>82405736 I actually like the 3d concerts so I wouldn't mind more of them. Maybe Cover should try again with Vsingers or some shit? It's a hard thing to balance especially for Cover management since they're at least 20 IQ points bellow the average person.

>>82404854 hearing her laughing at
veronicas death made me realize she is a bad person. Why did Pekora make her the spotlight in the Minecraft HC server, pekora already had to know that she was leaving by then. I'm so done with hololive
Anonymous
>>82405544 There's zero chance of her reincarnating into any other company but Nijisanji or VSPO, and she's already got a semi-popular roommate that'll only get more popular.
She'll fly solo.

>>82405439 It's never framed as balance, it's framed has her not wanting idol activity when she has patently shown that isn't the case. Not sure why it is so hard for you to comprehend why people don't find that to be a compelling argument.

>>82406188 Well if that's what the voices in your head told you, sure, it's people saying that she doesn't want to do idol activities and we'll ignore the part about streaming being cut down because reading is hard.

>>82405977 My guess as well
She started as a solo before Hololive, and got popular enough.
She's ending her career as one of the biggest vtuber, and without drama ending as well. Her going solo will definitely goes well.

My simple rrat is that she's been collecting millions in supacha bux for so long that she reached a point where she realized she can do whatever she wants for the rest of her life now. I don't think Holo is a do-nothing job because enough talents have indicated that there's a fuck ton of work off stream. So after a few years it makes total sense to dip since you'd be rich.

>>82405221 She considered graduation before Cover even went IPO. It's been a very long time coming. Basically ever since the first big break she took, that's when it started.

>>82407709 there are lots of actual good gamers vtubers. But never as interesting as Aqua.
The one who's actually fun to watch are just not an autist gamer like Aqua.
Cover just lost a great talent

Quoted By:
>>82411610 It's a huge loss. Not only is she a vet but had the identity of being the sweatlord gamer of Hololive for years.
People can't understate this. The fact that we're losing her is losing a massive piece of identity that Hololive had.
