A bit of behind-the-scenes of Bae's recording of R x R x R.
Burning love!The NijiEN AR live is back on. Ignore the dramatic reduction in talents making the posters look empty
Fun fact, the poster is the same fucking image as last year's, just with 4 less talents and the remaining hostages talents shifted around

Silence is golden, noise is platinum. Keelah se'laiA whole year has passed and they didn't even bother to include ILUNA members, on top of forcing the remaining "Golden 20" to travel to Japan again in October-November to repeat recordings that should have been done in 2022.

^^ Given Petra's post, it's possible this is actually last year's footage with edits to cut out graduated/terminated talents? Or they are reshooting but with the 4 gone talents cut out and little to no script changes?

Give me cute or give me...something?Rain Garden Utensil and Numi
Rain just can't turn that mode off can she?
There's a warning on the AR Live ticket purchase page that says there won't be refunds due to the change in the concert's cast. This does not inspire confidence even for the most diehard parasocial fans.

x4 On AR Live, Rosemi has also said that a portion of her part in AR Live was edited out, so presumably her and Petra have parts edited out due to the whole Doki termination disaster.
And in other "the burning yacht known as Nijisanji" news, One of Luca's ex-mods has compiled a google doc about her experience with him (Doc here, starts with a trigger warning for "Manipulation, Sexual Harassment, Psychological Abuse, Suicide"), which is uh... well it's a thing with some of the things mentioned. Also got me wondering who in NijiEN was/is dating who

Silence is golden, noise is platinum. Keelah se'laiThat screenshot of Noor pitching the idea of an AR Live to EN (No, I'm not telling you what her display name is in that chat log) makes me wonder if she's even still a manager after what the giant-ass mess surrounding it.
Edited by HashiriyaR32 on Mar 29th 2024 at 6:19:50 AM
Didn't the rrats surmise that Noor was no longer part of management after the early 2023 staff shift that saw the rise of Yasuhiro "Harry" Igarashi (the Yasuhiro appearing in Sayu's receipts for the contract)?
Also, the story about that one staff member who cried after the Livers started talking back on management's alleged plans for Luxiem's 1st anniversary is oddly funny to imagine.

"They played us like a DAMN FIDDLE!" — Kazuhira Miller, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainThe Niji drama never ends! One interesting thing in Raziel's document is that the initial recording for the AR Live was apparently just audio. I wonder if what happened was that Anycolor originally intended to have the 3D animated by hand, and then changed their mind to using mocap? Resulting in a year-long delay
The unfortunate thing in all of this is that if anyone's getting fired because of this document, it'll probably be the anonymous liver who reached out to Raziel before it'll be Luca or Aster.
Hm. From what I can tell, the requirement for getting terminated from Nijisanji is making your manager sufficiently angry. Your overworked, underpaid manager. The anonymous liver is probably fine, just because no one is going to put in the effort to track them down. But if Luca or Aster are on bad terms with management, this could be enough to get them fired (pretty sure Luca isn't, though)
To paraphrase some green parrot I'm still reluctant to watch: "Stop making me talk about your sh*tty drama, Niji!"

Burning love!In fun news, apparently Weebcon is a huge success for Numi, Bao, and Sinder. Did a musical act that the crowd was wild for!

Yagoo managing to win by just doing nothing. He’s like a wizard
Also, Raziel just has at least Discord identification of many Nijien members. I guess security was what the company skimped out on too?

Yeah by what I heard from the Hololivers Cover is quite supportive

Not that I know of. I assumed that's exactly WHY they don't show footage.
