[@pheonixshaman]

Of course. From the bits that they all talk about: 1. Sakana took a BIG risk hiring Pippa. Look at what recently happened at OffKai. Something similar could have happened earlier 2. It sounds like the contract terms were very generous for corporate vtubing, hence why they all thought it was a scam at first. 3.Sakana gives them a lot more freedom than most agencies to do the kind of content they like. 4. He seems to try to genuinely try to support their wellbeing as people, not just talents. Things like paying for some of their gym memberships, letting them use the managers as therapists, not hiring Rinmama because that would make it awkward for Lia at home, etc is not something you would see at other agencies.
