Pippa didn't become a cash cow until like November 2022.
The fools mistake would have been to rush into 3D production in the spring of 2023 under the assumption the money will always be there and nothing could go wrong.
Instead Phase waited an extra year. And I am well aware more girls than just Pippa brings them money. Nene brought in like $130,000 in supas for kawaii, and the next best girl brought in $20,000.
Phase is deep. Pippa has made $500,000, then you have Tenma, Lia and Lumi who have cleared $100,000+. Airi, Dizzy and Shiina will break the $100,000+ next year. Compare that to kawaii.
Phase waiting on 3D worked out in the end. They got to have a 3D concert at a major con main stage with one of the biggest names in EN vtubing.
