I see that there is some seething about COVER transitioning to a publicly traded company eh? My only fear is that rich "antis" comes out of the woodworks when COVER opens up more stock than just the initial offering months after and these guys start demanding outrageous shit like terminating HOLO talent because muh numbers, political garbage or that they don't "stream enough". Investors are notoriously out of touch with everything after all or malicious on some level. COVER does have a set lifetime cap on their stock though so we'll see how that plays out. I think they're only going up to 40% shares publicly traded in April and keeping it that way but, things can always change.

It is interesting to see their game plan laid out in public now though; expansion overseas and to open up a huge ass studio so talent can use it without having to book months in advance. This may include an American studio at some point who knows. They have also taken into account that viewership changes over time as well. They'll also localize more often, whether in house or not remains to be seen. I would say though translations have definitely been in house since there's some good memes inserted through CC on YT that are clearly more "Western". Again, things may change on this end.

The funniest part is the seethe that "Nijisanji, small corpo, indies and others" have about this. Success does indeed breed jealousy. I'm sorry that Froot from Vwhorejo backstabbed Silvervale by donating to a child rape center and said to Silvervale in HER twitch chat of all places "People make mistakes". Sorry that VTubing is primarily Hololive dominated bar a few exceptions... Not.
