>>88906704It's pretty bad news because one of Riku's main copes has always been that Anycolor was the most valuable vtuber company on the market, which served as a handy excuse for why they didn’t have any future plans worth a damn: because things were supposedly going well, and they were making money.
Now, they’re in deep shit. Investor trust is at an all-time low, the stock has staggered, and it takes barely anything to tank it. They’re only staying afloat because everyone’s waiting for Riku to keep handing out free money. But sooner or later, that free money is going to run out, and everyone smart enough knows that this is the perfect time to jump ship to Cover.
Make no mistake: Anycolor is still too big to fail, and it would take a miracle for the company to implode. Even in the worst-case scenario, it would take years for them to truly disappear. The real problem is: no one’s going to wait that long. The company has grown too big, too fast, and is now out of control. Their management is a complete mess, and most of their talents are struggling with no real potential for growth. The company feels like a ticking time bomb that can’t be fixed, everyone knows it and now Cover has finally shown its fangs.
Riku's big challenge for the year has shifted from "nothing is wrong, and here’s why" to "let me tell you why we’re still a better option than the competition". And this time, he's going to have a tougher time selling his bullshit because Anycolor literally has no future plans beyond building a bigger studio, and they’re still dealing with the fallout from the NijiEN crash
