Dear god no. So much easier to find porn nowadays, I'd lose the time when I figured things out and searched for it. I'd lose out on figuring out how to keep things quiet and not get caught!

Something that made me chuckle. Top: YAGOO of hololive, bottom Tazumi of Nijisanji/Anycolor. What makes me chuckle is being reminded of the phrase, Anycolor and they chose black.

Y'all talking about Infinite Wealth and here I am who just finished 7 a few days ago.
Went ahead and finished the True Final Millenium Tower too for the achievement. Would have been a climactic end to my playthrough, but I still had one more achievement to do to finish, and that one was more tedious than maxing out job levels despite taking shorter time.

And now the official Nijisanji EN Twitter account has put out a statement about the backlash to the video. So basically, they admit that they broke the NDA and showed the Livers the documents, but allegedly only the parts that pertained to those Livers specifically (even though Vox claimed in the video that he "thoroughly read through the document), and Nijisanji's defense for the video is- and I shit you not- "yeah, we broke the NDA we signed with Selen/Doki's lawyers and had our employees talk about it publicly, but they didn't sign an NDA, so it's not illegal for them to publicly put out a video about things we weren't supposed to tell them in the first place". Also, they unironically did the "we investigated ourselves and found ourselves innocent" thing. Apparently, Anycolor's lawyer's law degree was written in crayon. Getting tiresome comparing them, but again, it's night and day when comparing Nijisanji and Cover, with regards to NDAs this time.

Was mostly rhetorical. Like, for better or worse, things had sorta simmered down and Nijisanji decides to double down like this.

Peaked at 125k+ live viewers.
It's crazy because Dokibird said she was willing to leave on neutral terms, but of course Niji didn't and everything is on fire.

To lighten the mood... Since there's a thread right now about the movie Hereditary... here's an old one, where Pekora watches and reacts to said movie.
She also watched Midsommar.
Also Ame watched Hereditary too.

Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town
Yakuza 7
First Yakuza game I played. Was quite surprised to find out that it works on my laptop. Anyways, did all achievements since there were only a few left, so might as well. That said, the honk honk achievement was painful and more tedious than the second-to-last achievement.
Still, had fun. The other Yakuza games I'll get around to eventually, but for now it's back to farming with Story of Seasons Pioneers of Olive Town.

It certainly is bizarre that they're going through this effort to do all this. Like, prior to Selen and Zaion, terminations were brief with regards to their JP and I think KR branch. Now they're going scorhed earth, and making sure to dig the ground under that and burn that too.

Kay Yu (creator of HoloCure) also mentioned Selen's termination. Like, I reckon for the next few days things are gonna be on fire.
Nijisanji's reddit is on full on revolt mode. Alas, yet another thing that hololive did smarter and I wish Niji followed suit to show they're actually aware. Coco graduating and Rushia leaving, they had the sense to lock their reddit to calm things down. Leaving it unlocked just makes negativity ferment further, and worse off other Niji EN members will eventually get caught in the crossfire.

Alas. Never really felt it that much, but at this point this seems apt "Anycolor, but they chose black."
Apparently, one wild thing about the management is that most of them don't speak English, which certainly puts some of the EN members at a disadvantage.
And really, considering the suicide attempt there's not much they can do, but the fact that the termination post tries to justify what they've done is pretty damn vile. Once it happened, they could have done right by agreeing to part ways with Selen instead of trying to paint her in a bad light. Just pretty dang scummy.
Lots of people are speculating that EN will go the way of the other international branches. Everyone absorbed into the main branch, or at least everyone who's willing to stay.
Frankly, I don't like comparing the two companies together, but comparing how holo dealt with Mel for the NDA breach and this mess, it's like night and day.

Apparently, the Japanese language post of Selen's termination does not mention/denies harassment.
If that's the case, that just makes management even more incompetent due to not bothering with proofreading.
Selen's PL mentions bullying though, so there was harassment, but its unclear whether its from management or the livers, or both.

I can't believe a company just flat out admitted "yeah, our employees harassed another employee" so casually. Holy shit. Really quite baffling that they'd admit that. Most generous speculation from me is that Niji knows that Selen would mention it sooner or later (and she did), so might as well rip the band aid off now. On the other hand, admitting it on a post about reasons why they're firing Selen is certainly a move. So far, the other NijiEN livers have been quiet about things. Perhaps that's why Niji mentioned the harassment. With that in mind, everyone who talks about Selen would be suspected of knowing something about the harassment and get hounded with questions.

And it happened. Selen Tatsuki has been terminated from Nijisanji, including all her VODs being privated. No graduation stream. In the end, all one can do is hope she lands on her feet after this. Oof. Just saw the tweet on Selen's PL account. Like, holy shit. Niji's announcement also mentions harassment of Selen by other livers. That's one hell of a pandora's box.

Finish the story! Finish the story! Guess what, there's another story that's been going on for four years that needs to finish first. Cody is still coming for the title but wants to take EVERYTHING from him, which includes The Rock taking the head of the table from him. There's nothing that says he's going after Seth. He could've made a deal to get a shot at the WWE Championship at Summerslam instead. But everybody please continue jumping to conclusions and reacting irrationally. Even if that is exactly where it goes, that still makes Cody look like a loser idiot who can't fight his own battles and is passing on the biggest opportunity in his life for no reason. There is no salvaging this shit. My 2 cents on this. This is pro-wrestling. Unless you're a chickenshit heel, you take the opportunity given to you. Kayfabe-wise, I mean. Like, Daniel Bryan fought Triple H first and had to win so he can fight later in the same night on the triple threat match to win the WWE Championship, while this is more like Ricochet fighting a match where if he wins he'd be left alone.

It does seem like there are systemic problems within Nijisanji EN that need to be resolved as soon as possible to help the talents out. Especially compared to how civil Mel's situation turned out for Hololive, or even compared to Magni and Vespers exit from Holostars EN. Opinion on Niji has soured for quite a while, and Selen's situation has gotten things really boiling. In general, it seems like there's not enough people management-side for NijiEN. Apparently, they hired a new higher up for NijiEN, and some of the livers have mentioned good things coming up, so hopefully that's something. That said, until there's word on the Selen situation, the fanbase in general won't improve much in terms of their opinion on Niji. Also, there was a period of time when fan perception of hololive has been sour. Balls in Niji's court, if they can improve, then that'll be good for them in the long run.

NijiEN's Kyo Kaneko announces graduation. Whatever the reasons may be, but it's definitely not a good look for NijiEN to have a graduation announcement every month for a while now.
Aside from that, the Mikeneko situation has been a wild couple of days. So far, it's a he-said she-said situation, so the truth has been hazy and who knows how it'll end.
