>>84967611Oof, I was wrong with my guess.
>NijiJPI thought they were at least going to be able to maintain their Q1 numbers or get close to them. Surprised to see an almost 12.5% drop in commerce. Was the events drop due to changing when NijiFes occurs? In that case, Niji might have a Q4 surprise on hand.
>NijiENSurprised by how badly numbers dropped across the board. Q1 would be May-July.
>LivestreamingI thought with NijIEN streaming more than in Q4 that livestreaming income would at least somewhat increase.
I wonder if memberships played a role. Most memberships weren't cancelled until the Black BG vid (GJ dumbasses). That was in February, so NijiEN might have gotten at least 1-month of memberships.
How'd Kyo's graduation do? I know it didn't do as well as Mysta's, but it probably boosted numbers (at 1 or 2 million more when ads+gifts+final SCs are all considered)?
Looking more into it, Obsydia and Luxiem also had their 3Ds during Q4. That would have boosted livestreaming revenue. This Q1 livestreaming revenue funnily enough could be NijiEN's "recovering".
>CommerceIt's pretty bad, but I'm not too familiar with Niji's merch offerings and when they happened/promoted. Q2 will be interesting to see at least.
>Event-8 is pretty funny, but that's about $56,000 USD. Probably limited their losses as a result. The meme potential is there, Nijis will have to avoid any games involving business/finance (sell something unprofitable in a game, get spammed with -8, oof).
>TakeawayQ2 is going to be way more interesting to see now. If the numbers remain where they are or slightly increase, it does mean the EN branch is recovering (shouldn't be too hard). Given how quite a few members are pivoting to JP stuff, it'll be interesting to see how things pan out.
