Context tweet.

That scripted pr video was really bad.

And now recent with https://twitter.com/NIJISANJI_World/status/1757257329945497672?t=LJn3gte0PXoueShvs_7V9w tweet from nijisanji I am wondering how stupid they are.

I'm pretty sure that this is just the start.

This train of a shitshow just keeps accelerating with no brakes.

You have to be pretty damned dumb to not believe this company isn't black.

We need to get #ResignNowRikuTazumi trending after the farce that was this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7zaTpwP8DQ

Saw this before that ridiculous video, felt it was being too harsh. Not quite as sympathetic after the video.

I didn't expect Elira of all people to throw Selen under the bus. Does being lore-sisters mean nothing now?

What she did actually was true to her character lore.
https://nijisanjilore.fandom.com/wiki/Elira_Pendora

Elira is also characterized by an immensely strong sense of duty towards her family and the good of the solar system. For instance, she felt such a strong pull towards joining her mother's cause of understanding humans and wishing to find a peaceful way to integrate with them that she was willing to be reborn as a human and live a human life. Furthermore, she was willing to betray her own half-sister Selen (so true) in order to ensure that a more peaceful way to restore the dragon race could be found.

Deepest lore.

I feel that Elira and the others are being forced to act as meatshields, like, I wouldn't be surprised if Anycolor were threathening them with blackmail or something else, and considering how Selen was trying to just leave peacefully while Anycolor was not letting her until they terminated her, I believe they aren't leaving the others with much of a choice. This whole situation is sickening.

Is it controversial to say that I believe every single human being is entitled to at least enough human decency that they aren’t depicted in revenge porn, no matter who they are?

This is not stupidity anymore, this is fully intentional act of malice. They know they won't get away with this unscathed, so they're just dragging everyone down with them.

They know they cannot compete with Hololive anymore, so they chose WACTOR as their new rival.

Called it, we're getting the second rise of #NoTatsukiNoTanoshii tag, but this time it's gonna be #SinkTheYacht

The ongoing theory is that since Elira is currently in Japan, ANYCOLOR has an iron grip on her work visa. Some Japanese companies have been shown to threaten foreign workers that if they don't stay in line, not only will they be able to revoke the visa, but they can even make it so that the foreign workers get blacklisted and have a much harder time getting a work visa from a different company.

As for Vox and Ike, there has been some allegations floating about them involving sexual assaults or abusing their position to sleep with fans. These are currently baseless so it could be false, but if true it could very well be the thing ANYCOLOR is threatening them by.

Otherwise yes, most other talents should have seen this a from a mile away all the statement will achieve is to stoke the fire even further fo no reason. I mean if Tazumi's video was the only thing they released today I think many would be willing to give him a chance when Doki was already willing to just move on, but since it came after this PR trainwreck of a statement, many have been far less forgiving.

Vtubers are avatars, not humans.

But who's behind the avatar? A human.

This is actually someone's fanfiction wiki.

In what world do these people live in in which leaking legal documents signed by lawyers to their livers is acceptable in any way? Using them as mouthpieces for slander is bad in on itself, but that was just straight-up illegal!

I've been stunlocked by incompetence before, but nothing quite like this!

Also worth mentioning that it and Elira's tweet is also community noted on Twitter/X.

Holy fucking fuck. NIJI is really going on a downward spiral.

I wonder if she got manipulated to read all of this? I mean it wouldn't be surprising.

Welcome to the wonderful world of black companies. I have personal experience in this field. Nothing this blatant, though. I did receive what was supposed to be hazard pay in the form of scrip currency, though.

Y'all didn't have any issue with rape-fantasy porn until today, so your high-horse attitude rings hollow.

I have no qualms with the vtuber avatar being put into "revenge porn".
It would be a different story if it was the human (whose face you never see anyway).

I can have my revenge rape fantasy and know that I'm doing that to a real person at the same time, they're not mutually exclusive.

Can't say I support the revenge hentai of their avatars. I found it distasteful when they did it to Zaion, and even now with the shoe on the other foot I can't say I find it any better.

Probably the only thing I like about this image is their parodying of BBC hentai tropes, which is not something I would have expected.

You can't separate the avatar from the human. The human is why people care about the avatar in the first place.

And then Riku apologized to the investors.

Agree. No matter where you stand on the drama¹, there are red lines that are not meant to be crossed, doubly so when it goes against every wishes of the person you are pretending to pledge your support to.

¹ and I pretty much stand with Doki on this one and just want her to be able to move on with her life while pursuing a lawsuit without public scrutiny as per her wishes, while hoping I can continue to support most/some Niji livers as well.

This is so disgusting. And it was sent directly to her. This is exactly the type of bullying that gets people to k ll themselves.
The person who made this and the people cheering it haven't learned a thing and they haven't listened to a word of what the person they claim to protect said.
This is not fan art, a fan certainly didn't make it, it doesn't belong here and I hope it gets taken down.

You know you can flag it, right?

No, you can't. Flagging is for posts that are low quality or that break the rules. Somone already tried flagging this once.

There's a reason why some have called hime the anti-YAGOO.

Given the situation, I'd rather look for nijisanji_en in the PAAAWNCH!!! pool for what I feel many of them deserve.
