ProjectF also smugly talked how much better than other corps they will be.... MANY. SUCH. CASES!
Oof. Yeah, that’s true.
Look at what they leave out of these PR statements and ask why they're not advertising those factors as heavily. Why aren't they being "transparent" about high-quality, one-to-one management? Because they're understaffed.
That is true, especially having known some of the talents’ past lives (Pochi/Fen, Yuko/Rye, Coni/Menace, Roca/Chapipi, and Kai/Tsunari, the latter of which I actually consider a bit of a friend)--while some of them may be the sweetest ever, each one of them (except maybe Roca) is a
lot.
Why aren't they "transparent" about the company and fanbase culture? Because while Hololive, Phase, and even tiny corpos like Kawaii have found comfortable niches (idol performances/chaotic "sad girls"/GFE respectively), Idol still feel like they're in the "throwing ideas around to see what sticks" phase.
That’s true. While a niche does attract a narrower audience (e.g. I’m not into Kawaii), it
consistently attracts that audience. By trying everything, you’re attracting a wider audience, but only to the parts they’re interested in–This leads to poor retention, which is not good for growth or business.
Idol doesn't take a cut from the donothon. That puts the onus on fulfilling the rewards squarely on the talent.
Where are you getting that from?
He said it's "around the corner" on the first day of the year, so maybe Pochi's decision to graduate got in way?
Maybe. They are understaffed, after all
On the other hand I don't understand what was stopping her from fulfilling the donathon goals and then requesting to graduate (outside of the obvious grift/scam answer), she has to be retarded if she doesn't understand how bad that looks.
Menhera? Not going to deny that she is. Very much so.
Can anyone who is her fan explain to me why she decided to redesign herself as a loli anyway?
That much I don’t know
From what I've gathered from what Pochi has said, a new clause in their contract she missed when she renewed changed policy and that's what's biting her in the ass, yes. It does seem like an accurate summary.
That’s why you always read through contracts with a lawyer!
Also add in to the fact people are claiming she scammed a donothon on her PL before joining Idol, but I've found nothing definitive on that yet. Still searching for it. Either way, it doesn't paint a good picture for her.
Unfortunately I am unable to locate anything on any Fen suba/donothon bar one subathon goal. News to me, though.
I think it helps that Phase's only loss so far was a Phase Invader who while are integrated with the other girls still feel like their own thing
One of the only true invaders (so far, at least. Maybe more are possible, maybe not). While it sucks that we lost half, they’re even more of their own thing than the reincarnated invaders
