Since the only thing they want is freedom to post virtually anything to want online and she is far more unhinged than any other from Hololive.

Not really sure what people think 4ch and most of the internet sites like that represent, but that is true freedom and what everyone wants the internet to be.

There's obviously a big chunk there that's missing, and for good reasons most of us know.

Having a whole country of xenophobic, nationalistic, incels railing on you for YEARS trying to get you to quit or die or worse, is so insane.

So i doubt nijisanji will give up an entire country worth of revenue just for one person, unless kson somehow brings in years and years worth of $ from a few collabs. dont forget, nijisanji is a business first and would see the negative effects of having a collab with kson. it shouldnt be like this but thats the world we live in.

@@Yiman Don't worry, Hololive and Vshojo have done slimey things too, it's common practice in big corps and associations looking to make it big. The reason hololive backed up kson/coco was because if they didn't, they would take a huge hit with their audience, which was mostly composed of westerners back then (now it's mostly east and southeast asia). Remember Kson left because she kept fighting with the higher-ups who didn't give her freedom and she mentioned how they always complained whenever she pushed the limits, so the stress of fighting the trolls and fighting her bosses made her quit. Vshojo didn't protect their talents, they protected themselves.

I know this wasn't in the video (which i think is obvious for reasons) around late 2019 Kson joined a big vtuber agency which literally changed vtubing history. Orginally she wanted to work as a manager, but the staff recommended that she becomes vtuber instead. Because of that Vtubing became very popular outside of Asia, The agency that she worked for became one of the most popular content creating agency's, became the #1 superchatted KZbinr in the world, had the 10 highest viewed livestreams in the world and inspired a lot of people to become vtubers. Also there was an incident where she had a whole country constantly harass her and throughout all the drama she managed to stay strong and positive. After the drama she continued to work until mid 2021 where she left the agency. However, during her final month working for her agency instead of leaving and fading away, she went out with a huge bang. After that she took a 1 month break from content creation and returned to streaming again. Kson is a legend, she is the definition of a gigachad, she is basically kiryu kazuma.

Legend! 🐲

[@jchan8539]

I don't really follow VTubers, but suddenly Kson started to show up on my feed, as she was going for that role in Yakuza/Like a Dragon. I still don't, but I will time to time check out what Kson is doing.

[@theincarnationofsin]

This was a fantastic way to find out that she was the winner. I had no idea because life got in the way of me watching during that whole arc. It truly felt like the ending of an anime.

The pioneer member of Hololive EN 0 beside Hachaama! Long Live the Dragon Yakuzaa!

You're not crying, I'm crying! Wait... that's not how it goes.

[@Primus101]

Amazing story my guy! That whole video is the reason why we love Kson! Also I’d admire her Rebellious attitude towards things that goes in her way. It kinda Reminds me of me back in high school in the punk scene not giving a fuck what people say or do. That’s why I love Kson. A rebel to another.

[@Yiman]

yup she reminds me of the older sister figure where whenever major shit goes down, you go to her first

[@altrivotzck6565]

It's funny how this like doesn't even cover 75% of her badassery.

[@HDSpuerstar]

Kson be like "they all know their best angle" implying she can't do that and actually pulling it off in a second like my heart exploded totally

[@zankoakurouch]

Kson does shts that i dont really find entertaining but I still respect her and i really still enjoy some of her stuff. that's how its suppose to be. Dont blindly like everything an individual does. she is someone who stood her ground and ideals.

[@Trashman_Len]

This encourages me to attempt to get over a dream, I suppose. But it is also a fear. I have pretty bad anxiety, I’m not looking to become an extrovert, but control over my anxiety sounds nice.

[@ayanafreemen5098]

never under estimate ones soul and passion. This was a life changing event at end when she cried. For those who have no clue who Kson even is. Thanks for letting us know about her this way.

[@MadAmmaD_]

i suddenly had tears in my eyes for some reason, then realized it was because of the bgm at 3:22

[@salcaalpaca3428]

DTS MY OSHI OUT THERE BABY!

[@Andre-wq5rh]

on god just watched a video abt keanu reeves a few hours ago and kson is basically him in the vtuber world

[@tobiasharnisch4155]

To be honest kson was the truest beauty in this competition and I hope she will be able to have a bigger role in the game!

[@snaffu1]

Yes yes. We know about the other contract, it's the elephant in the room, and played a massive part in things. 🤫 And honestly it cannot be undersold how impressive it is that she was growing on two different fronts simultaneously, and then carried that momentum forward from 2021 on. I think that year really defined just how tough our gal truly was, and she has only built on it since then. So damn proud of her.

[@gogogomes7025]

The soft piano Baka Mitai in the bg, love it! 🤣🤣🤣

[@teoscreator5805]

I'll never get tired of saying it, Kson is The Strongest Vtuber

[@alixsprallix]

great video

[@NamuIsIdle]

Kson the GOAT! she's achieved everything she wanted! even now, she got to be the host for the latest Yakuza! and he's enjoying her life!!!! thats the best life!!!

[@blackwingz55]

and this all started because she wanted a managing position

[@Hitman2b]

am genuily happy that kson manage to succeed in achieving here dream but am sure there is more dream she want to achieve this one was the biggest one she manage to pull off

[@rams1738]

10:37 spoken like a true yakuza fan 😂 man, if i met kson i'd see a black and white frame pause with *VShojo Delinquent Vtuber Legend Kson* in red in my head too

[@mechalinkergaming7169]

She survived Chinese antis too. The strength of a dragon, the heart of and soul of a delinquent.

[@FineWine-v4.0]

The Antis weren't even trying though

[@SargentGunnery]

Really good video man
