>>90595439 Real talk, if I recall correctly staff is basically split into thirds. One third works with talents and does everything related to Hololive productions, one third is business and legal and accounting and all that boring stuff, and the last third is working on developing Holoearth and related. The Holoearth dev group might actually be a bit bigger than that by now.

>>90599143 When Live2D was new it was marketed towards games and other various animation projects as a best of both worlds between 3D and 2D workflow. When it started to take off as a cheap alternative for vtuber models, they cut their development and focused on just the minimum needed for vtubing models. Just like Live2D, the tech for Holoearth could always be repurposed for a larger market, say as an app to do virtual performances for indies. It would be a failure of the business side to let it all go to waste.

>>90595439 They most certainly don't, and growing your headcount so fast usually has bad repercussions for startups. It brings all sorts of issues such as eroding your company culture, managers introducing bureaucracy to make themselves "needed", and slows down operations in general.
It's a nice stroke on leadership's ego and looks good to investors tho.

>>90598080 I think the HoloEarth stuff is probably what some of the unity and other tech staff are told to work on when they're not working on Hololive things for streams. I think a lot of them would just be sitting around doing nothing because they don't have a constant supply of work to do at all times. I doubt there are really all that many people solely assigned to working on HoloEarth.

They increased their employee count almost 200% in the past 2 years, yet aside from his having an EN concert and a few new girls, the output has remained mostly the same. Where are all those man-hours being spent?

>>90604964 No, they explicitly have a large section of the company just doing programming and tech development, most of which is working now on Holoearth. The lion's share of the large hiring increase over the last few years has been for this department. 1/3 is probably a pretty low estimate by now, might be closer to 1/2.
It's not *just* Holoearth, but that is the main thing they're working on.

>>90605425 Having a skilled tech team like that at their disposal isn't necessarily a bad thing. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of stuff they built for Holoearth got ported over and reused in Hololive's main activities. Holoearth is an unfinished project so of course it would look like bloat at a surface level glance.
Anonymous
>>90606746 Not sure if you're joking because the holos have already done a deep dive on Holoearth and bloat isn't even really describing what we saw.

>>90606840 I just don't want to write it off when it's not even a finished product. There is some potential there and honestly it just looks like a big research and development experimentation ground that they made public for people to play around with.

>>90595439 From the Q1 report, roughly
>Back Office: 60 >Metaverse: 55 >Agency Management: 82 >Sales and Marketing: 100 >IP Planning, Content Creation, Infrastructure Development: 160 Talent management is under Agency Management, and Holoearth is likely under Content Creation ("Streaming Application and Software Development"). This is full time employees only, too.
The real question is what the fuck those 55 people are doing in the "Metaverse". Metaverse development and media mix expansion???

>>90595439 They have 602 employees and the breakdown is in picrel

Anonymous
>>90608939 Nothing. After having watched Hololive for years, I'm not even sure how they fill up 40 hours a week. The talent is doing so much work that managers also have just as much work? There's simply no way.

Quoted By:
>>90611099 It would be strange for them to change the terminology at this point. There was probably a time when they had one manager for many talents and it wouldn't have felt right to call them an assistant. Or it has something to do with the idol roots.

>>90607654 You need all those people for vtuber branding and planning out new gens and vtubers. 34%.
Those are the same one that ok'd ReGloss designs. That department needs to be cut down by alot
Anonymous
>>90608307 >>90608621 But those models and rigs are done on contract, they're not full time employees. Cover is commissioning those assets, they're not made in house.
Anonymous
>>90615398 the timeframe I gave was under the assumption that models are done by contractors because that's how cover does it, I don't think it would be any different if they were full time employees since it's still the same amount of work

Quoted By:
>>90615513 Sure, but that doesn't explain what the actual full time staff are doing in those eight weeks. Sure, there's gotta be some back and forth with the contract artists, but there's 160 fucking people in that department.
