My specualtion is, they never had the money for international lawsuit, vtubing doesnt earn that much. And certainly no expertise. Same as two other other black company this year. "subject for 5kk yen under jp judicial system" is a joke, it's literally impossible if your contractor is not jp resident. Though talents have no money to sue back as well.

Are you sure WACTOR's exclusivity arrangement was any different from Nijisanji or Hololive's? They complained that Shino Laila engaged in "VTuber activities (including monetization)". As far as I can tell, while the big two are fine with their talent making money as fleshtubers or pngtubers, I've never seen a member of either use a functioning VTuber avatar while employed with them. Kson, for instance, used a VTuber avatar before joining Hololive, fleshstreamed from her personal account while a member, and went back to using a VTuber avatar a month after leaving.

​@@ckmishn3664iirc, Hololive does not restrict the talents to continue engaging on their roommates' career, but strictly against direct connection or even promoting or mentioning it. Some talents still have their past career ongoing without much fuss. But not for Nijisanji though. Even allowing strangers (even friends or family members) to appear on the livestreama.

For the people who wanted to know how nuclear the reaction was when Wactor doxxed Hina, let me say that it was so massive that many fans of Wactor decided to fully doxx Wactor's CEO Akira, it was effective enough to actually see what was going down inside the company like the one who was the legal representative was his mom, and she was using some of the accounts to do PR things for Wactor. Hina (Now Meica) is the biggest ESP v-tuber of the Latam Region who actually speak and stream for spanish demographics (Iron and Reimu are in EN parts mostly) so people actually do damage, and yeah, some of those feed the narratives about Lia x Akira being a real thing because of the massive leak of information fans got as revenge. But one of the most interesting part is what happened in the Wactor Discord Server where mods, who were clippers and some of them just "big people who donated a lot" decided to turn into Wactor's side and helped to get info of the girls, ban people who were worried and some of them are working with indies (Especially JP, be careful lads) and even the worst one is a mod for Phase Connect, it was proved that somes of them went to /vt/ threads only to anti the girls because they weren't "pure jap girls" and hating the new ESP girls because racism (When the lad was a just as latin as the rest of us at the end of the day). Some of them until this day go to hate the girls even on twitter or /vt/. Some people while discussing this said that many of these mods were not even paid and just got something like talking to the talents themselves as payment, making them very parasocial with them (Even with leaks about some of them declaring his love to Hina and getting rejected), so when the girls left, they took it very personal and the worst say possible. The entire history of Wactor is a tale of what a black company truly is and yet we don't know the full truth yet, but time will leak that true anyway.

I was introduced to Meica (despite know her for all of this already) recently because of the ES Vtuber I'm working with this year (one of the 2, because i been working with another indie since 2021 for the EN side. And i got introduce in similar manner to other EN vtubers).

1) They tried to tap into spanish speaking audiences with members that knew NO SPANISH AT ALL. Still, they were received very positively. 2) When they actually started hiring spanish speakers... well you already watched the video, nothing changed. 3) Hina Misora was HUGE in latin america. And Wactor was so stupid to not take care of her, and not try to do the same with other talents that were following her footsteps. 4) When they hired for Wactor ES... it was so sad to see their streams because it felt like they were being held at gunpoint so they don´t speak at all about what is happening, and to just keep smiling and keep working.

Wactor trying to trick everyone to support their subsideraries was scummy, if you see them (providing they still exist), don't support them with your money & especially don't audition in them. There hasn't been an agency besides Wactor where self harm or worse is the only way to get out of a contract.

One thing that must be emphasized about the doxxing of Misora/Meica is that the Spanish community not only saw this as a completely disloyal and reprehensible act, but they also made Meica feel safe by making memes and making jokes with her. How many vtubers can say that they feel safe even when their ID is revealed with their address?

I don't know what to say. This is so terrible, especially for the talens involved. Rumours while often unfounded with evidence,often being parades willy nilly. This reminds me of a case of a female pro wrestler. I think her name was Hana Kimura. While shooting for a reality show by some Japanese TV station,she was told to cause a scene to bring drama to the show. Apparently the contract she signed include nda and some clause that she have to follow the director script. The drama was ruining her reputation and cause her severe depression due unable to defend herself. He mother begs the tv to clear Hana's reputation,by admitting the incident was scripted. Alas the TV refused,until the day Hana decided to end herself. After some times the TV finally made open statements, admitting the incident was a scripted event. The producer and director resigned from the show. But allegedly they still producer and director just in different team within the tv station.

Just remembering these events makes me want to unleash my fury for all these guys, who are now taking refuge on that board that is deader than that crappy agency. Here is a fact that only a few know and that is that in their Discord server (Yes, the ideal Message Service for the worst aberrations that can come from a person) they literally did not care what happened to the girls, no I'm lying when I say one of the 3 disgusting moderators, public that he didn't care if a talent left, that in the end a new one would replace him. Anyway, I still wonder how there are still people who believed the story of Hina vs. the Clips and who cling to W. For me, it is not difficult to come across really despicable users who criticize the girls (More like Meica for some reason) as guilty of a crime that they did not commit, knowing that there are people with clear xenophobic thoughts (R) and questionable reality mentalities (If you know what I mean), who are both outside and inside the girls' communities... people completely resentful of destroying their fantasy of having control over them... that makes me paranic. Akira, like a good failed coward, if it weren't for his "Prodigious Ability" to contact really talented and charismatic people, he wouldn't have gotten as far as his own public put him. Because yes, W. didn't do much, everything was done by the Fans and the Talents. "Papa Smurf" just watched and filled his pockets with our money, while at the slightest form of protest to have better treatment, he will make the easiest decision, expel and dox her (In the worst case scenario). Good video, actually, you included both old and current information, including a couple of videos that W. herself unsubscribed. Now, taking advantage of your confidence and the "Hispanica" theme, I was wondering if you were planning to talk about another agency that grew quickly when W. started to go down, maybe you know it, since some of its talents still collaborate with the girls (Meica and Nisha).

From a legal standpoint everyone laught at that as the AkioAir one. My sister, who is a lawyer, told me they can't do jackshit unless she is abducted to that country and trial there, but THAT WILL BE EVEN MORE ILLEGAL too. Level of facism illegal. And this was when we're discussing about Nimu's yab on Twitch since she knows i had contact with Vtubers (mainly since i work with 2 Vtubers, 1 EN and 1 ES). So in all of this Wactor never had a legal standpoint because they try to trial under laws of another country and on top they commit slander 1st. SO in other words, the one losing was Wactor and not the talents who quit.

Then the company posts ALL the receipt of the talent's purchase for the vtuber, and ask the vtuber to pay back publicly. Feels like a insane couple breakup story, rather than a termination

One thing that I think you could have emphasized is exactly how nuclear an issue the Vtuber community views doxxing. Looking at this video from the theoretical perspective of someone from outside, yes doxxing is bad and a health risk, but it is hardly a big enough deal to be such a serious part of Wactors reputational loss from the general community. Vtubing allows secrecy and separation from the IRL, and to even reveal the IRL name of ones Oshi that they have not themselves volunteered is considered one of the highest-level infractions. Hard doxxing them is basically the single worst sin a company can do bar none. Probably viewed worse than outright unfair termination frankly, because at least then your Oshi is no longer related to the bad company.

@@guilguis4820 Sure, but it is much more sensitive topic in Vtubing. Because Streamers at least consent to streaming as their real selves and have themselves and their room on camera. Because of this, doxxing is a lot easier and simpler than it is for a Vtuber on average. In Vtubing there is a serious expectation of privacy about pretty much everything IRL and it is much MUCH harder to find enough info about them to dox them. Only their companies and sometimes other talents they have off-collabed with can really do it without serious difficulty. Which means the community views the power to do so as a taboo for them to ever use. I'm not saying streamers being doxxed isn't bad if they had been trying to keep it hidden. But Vtubers have a lot more power-dynamics relating to secrecy to begin with.

Me gustaria agregar eventos de los que fuí testigo. Existió una generacion posterior a la de Hina Misora, Laila, Kurari Rose y Suzu. Dos de las se graduaron inmediatamente cumpliero el año, eran Pal sumeragi y Himari inumaki (Sabian lo que se aproximaba) de esa generacion quedando luna Rurine quien hablaba español tambien. De la siguiente tercera generacion (o cuarta) habia una hispano hablante que era Himea D'almaria Y una angloparlante kuuma Mirellie y 3 japonesas mas Ito shinonome yue saohime y Mimi yukinoshita que pospuso su debut y cambio su nombre a Lea ( se especula que la chica contratada cambio de opinion y se retiró, la que la reemplazo pidio el cambio de nombre) Yue desaparecio silenciosamente, ito argumenta que por una enfermedad de la vision tenia que descansar un tiempo y no regreso mas. Cuando la generacion ES apareció y despues exploto la polemica con el doxxeo a Hina Misora una Chica de la generacion ES sufrio mucho y hizo un stream forzado para que aparentara que estaba todo bien, en ese stream la Chica llamada Neo estaba sollozando y a la chica Himea D'almaria se le obligo a hacer un stream donde estaba super nerviosa y practicamente era un rehen al que se le obligo a repetir el mismo comunicado que emitió la agencia donde ofrecian a los talentos, que se coordinaron en exponer sus casos injustos, ser reintegradas a la agencia y "olvidar todo" cosa en la que nadie confió. El segundo miembro de la rama ES sezia Haruma eludia las preguntas relacionadas al tema al final todas dejaron en silencio la compañia siendo Himea la que tardó mas. Actualmente lo que queda de wactor es una divisiom de chicas japonesas gamers y para llamar la atencion a toda costa se les ha hecho revelar su rostro (disimulando con cosplay y filtro) y a fecha de hoy 26 de enero de 2023 han anunciado que tendran sus cuentas cuentas "Fantia" (imaginen que es como un onlyfans mas suave) para llamar la atencion y atraer mas publico Tambien se supo de un tweet de un ex moderador de kurari rose quien afirmo incluso con capturas de pantalla (no pondre su nombre ni enlace por respeto a ese hombre talentoso) donde explico que se desligaba de la empresa al que estaba voluntarimente trabajando por simpatia a Kurari Rose y al no deberle nada a nadie expresó que tuvo una experiencia muy extraña con Lia la cual lo contacto en privado y que hablaran en otro servidor donde se sentia segura y supuestamente donde la empresa no la veia, sobre los rumores entre Lia y Kurari Rose pues al parecer decia que habia un mal entendido y que queria conocer la version de los fans de Rose(esto fue ates de que Rose desapareciera). El no le dijo mucho y tiempo despues descubrio que en ese servidor donde le contactó si estaba la cuenta que usaba el CEO de wactor, entre los moderadores y eso le convenció que Lia Mentia pues la hubieran suspendido de inmediato. La misma Rose en su cuenta actual dio me gusta a esos tuits. Ese chico convencio a muchos que habia algo muy raro con lia Actualmente, el talento detras de Mitsurugi Lia tiene una cuenta y canal de youtube donde hace ASMR y tien su propia fantia, su imagen de perfil es colo un fanart de su avatar Lia. Actualmente Luna Rurine, Neon sezia , Himea, regresaron independiente Los moderadores voluntarios del discord de wactor tambien fueron contra las chicas y Hina Misora se especula que tenian contavto cercao con ella y que alguno se les insinuó y lo rechazo y ellos ayudaron a doxearlas. Tambien se comportaron muy despreciablemente con el resto de fans y con ktros moderadores de ahi que "Zona X" perdiera su canal de clips y decidiera romper el silencio. Pero esto ultimo es mas una rencilla entre moderadores que lamian botas y los que estuvieron en desacuerdo de lo que les pasó a las chicas. A un compañero miembro famoso del fandom lo amenazaron tambien con emprender acciones legales, el era de los que mas donaba pero el gestionó con la embajada de japon en mexico y tomaron acciones contra la amenaza. Actualmente solo hay casos abiertos confirmados con Merun Morino (Kurari Rose) y Meica (Hina Misora) pues ellas mismas han confirmado que son las unicas con procesos aun abiertos pero sin llegar a nada tampoco. Yo estoy de su parte y rezo porque superen ese obstaculo y entierren para siempre ese mal momento que es un lastre a su felicidad

wactor is whack. Your CEO? Whack! Your name and brand recognition? Whack! Doxxing talents and possibly banging one of them? (unsubstantiated) WHACK! Even if they rebrand like, I dont think anything will change. Once a villain always a villain, it dont matter what your name is. No one will work for, or under you. At least other agencies have the intelligence to know they cant legitimately control peoples lives. Wactor doesnt want talents, they want puppets. So they can control every miniscule aspect of their lives. People they can treat like garbage and have not care. Unfortunately for them, soulless husks dont exist in the real world. People WILL fight back, and have.

As much as we may joke about companies turning/being black, WACTOR being the serious standard for how black a company can get while not being completely in the shadows has been a constant for a while now. One other issue is that, from what I can tell, WACTOR was one of the only 2 bigger companies to branch into the ES demographic, a demographic of the 2nd most common first-language in the world, the other being IDOL which hasn't even happened yet.

You realize you can and should use the word suicide in comments like this, right? While KZbin will demonetize a video for using that word, they don't go after comments that happen to contain that word. Using a euphemism like "un alive" is only really an acceptable thing when you are forced to do so by the platform you're using. Using a euphemism diminishes the impact of what you are saying. This has the unintentional effect of minimizing the impact that depression and suicide has on people's lives, and the lives of those around them. Suicide is a serious problem in many countries, especially Japan, Korea, and India, among others. And it should absolutely be something that is discussed openly. It is often seen as something shameful for the surviving families of the victims, and we need to fight against that stigma.

And she being only half Japanese, fear the worst and choise to flee. (or thas is what i guess so).

Good video. The Wactor case is one of those that I investigated the most at the time. Here is a little of what I experienced: In January 2023 I was a little away from the vtuber topic. It no longer caught my attention, but still from time to time a funny clip of some vtubers would appear. The clips that appeared were of Misora ​​Hina and some other Wactor girls. I had already heard about Misora ​​before, she was quite popular in the Spanish community, especially in Latin America, some classifying her as the biggest vtuber in the community, becoming nominated for several awards along with another talent called Rurine Luna, another Wactor talent. At the end of January I was on Twitter when the first bomb of that year went off. Hina Misora ​​is missing and several of her classmates are starting to disappear too. I was immediately interested in all the chaos that was being generated, since I was dedicated to scripting videos for a channel in which I collaborated, I started to investigate. I discovered several things and rumors about past events. The Shino Laila and Kurari Rose case, the rumor that some vtubers were disappeared for deleting company information, the pattern of disappearances that in most cases was due to illness and from there Wactor no longer said anything, the matter of Lia and her CEO, among many other things that it would take me to explain. As the days went by and I discovered more things, the uncertainty, fear and desperation of the fans increased when Rurine Luna, one of the girls who collaborated the most with Hina, made an announcement that she would take a break. The fact is that this announcement was poorly written, as if they had used a translator, without a doubt Luna did not write that. Neon Kuroyuri, Wactor ES talent, was suddenly absent without warning, her last tweet said that she was sleepy. The rumors that Hina had already been fired grew worse and people began to ask the company for explanations, some rudely, but others very politely. Either of them were banned from Twitter accounts. The madness of the Discord server also happened, where the moderators banned anyone who asked about Hina, Luna or Neon. There was a special chat for Hina fans, however they deleted it and the alarms increased. And despite all this Wactor continued without saying anything. A couple of days passed and the announcement was made that legal action would be taken against anyone who spoke ill of Wactor, since that was the moment where the rumor of the CEO and Lia having a relationship spread and where the CEO was most doxed, but also to some girls by people who to date it isn't known if they were fans who wanted to help find the missing girls irresponsibly or if they were haters or people from Wactor. I remember that at that moment it was discovered that Luna on her Twitter had left likes for very varied tweets that formed a farewell message to her fans. That's something that made me very sad, but that's not where it ends. Neon suddenly returned and streamed. She seemed sad and was trying to calm people down, but in the end it seemed like a farewell more than a normal stream. Wactor had used her as a failed smoke screen, only to disappear again. Another talent named Himea was made to read a written script in which she stood against her friends. People began to unsubscribe from all the talents, there was a kind of massive doxing of Wactor, until suddenly Meica appeared. They recognized her from a voice clip and then other talents who had been missing also came together to support Meica. They soon talked about Wactor in public, making a counter move that the company did not know how to respond to. Several vtuber news media had heard about the case, but did not give it enough importance. Wactor was really a very bad company with his talents, forcing them to do and say things they didn't want to, disappearing them when they were no longer convenient without even giving notice to his fans, deleting her work and doxing those who stood against him. Currently Wactor lost all of its past Vtubers, including Hizuki Miu, who was the company's first talent. Now they only have a branch called VV-Gamers, they no longer focus on Spanish. Good luck to those girls and I hope history doesn't repeat itself. For me, the Wactor case was one of those that generated the most suspense and helplessness, but with a happy ending. Meica and most of the girls who have become independent are fine and the company that took advantage of them has fallen into misery. I think it is one of the biggest cases that the Spanish community had in terms of vtubers and there are too many very shady cases out there... That's all from me, sorry for the long text and happy new year.

Then they purchased Vspo (Because the Vspo talents wanted, but couldn't afford 3D), and things went vertical. They announced V4Mirai (V4Mirai refers to itself as Brave Groups first EN project), and then immediately launched Globie Social (their 2nd EN project, but focused on the EU, and emulating Niji EN), and Vspo very quickly followed up by announcing EN and CN branches. Globie Social had their debuts earlier this month, and Vspo ENs 1st gen is going to be announced at the beginning of February. They're doing an incredible amount of stuff on the JP side, setting up their own version of Virtual Talent Academy, and bringing Vtubing legends HIMEHINA into the agency. I have no clue how all these wild announcements are going to play out, but Brave Group is the single most ambitious Vtuber agency RN.

@@manusiabumi7673 Spoiler from the Vtuber awards… So basically Depressed Nousagi did a watch along of the vtuber awards and apparently a lot of his predictions of who would win awards were wrong, and so him and chat agreed that if Pekora didn’t win vtuber of the year, he would have to do an apology video. You can probably guess the outcome with the comment above as the award went to Ironmouse. Although tbf I don’t think there was a Japanse vtuber that won an award iirc, which makes sense since the voter demographic is in the US.

The apology video should be done Completionist style and threaten to sue at the end.

My thoughts on wactor extend beyond just vtubers themselves but to the mentality of a black company. A black company that runs things under the table in japan can legally still pursue defamation against anyone saying negative things about them regardless of whether those claims are true. As such this seems to be the common strategy employed by black companies to try to control workers under them. It falls apart when crossing international borders as we see here, but they are stuck in their way of thinking. There appears from a western pov, to be a norm of power dynamic of upholding the speech of a company while suppressing the speech of a worker/consumer that is not the norm in the west. (think about companies verbally harrassing or threatening a product reviewer to leave a positive review, to take down a negative review on amazon or ebay, or to fraudulently report a negative review in order to get it removed for made-up reasons) I would guess that reputable companies dont try to exploit this since they know the optics of exercising self control (even if there is legal allowance), but black companies like wactor do because they ignore the optics of having self-control in these situations because there is a legal allowance of this sort of behavior and they dont have enough reputation in the first place to be worth preserving. Basic advice to be gleaned from this is not to trust a corp with no reputation if they dont show evidence that they value fairness or integrity behind the scenes. And even if they do, one needs to be careful and see if they can show you they value those things even when nobody is looking.

On extra information, Laila was growing big until she get suspended for ridiculous reasons. Rose and Suzu was big on bilibili but Rose was expulsed and some drama happens because of bad management with Suzu before she leaves. Also, some of the ones that wasn't named on the video have good grown rates before what happens with Hina, they was Rurine Luna, Neon and Himea but the first 2 left almost inmediadlly when Hina was fired

Bit late but I feel like I should add that Hina Misora, now Meica05, is doing great, in fact she's even happier that she was back then and is growing at a similar rythm to when she was Hina. And she's not even scared of her community even tho she was doxxed! She moved countries but instead of keeping it a secret she's open about where she moved and even celebrated it when she got the country's nationality. Even tho she went through so much she remains strong and keeps moving forward with true joy doing what she enjoys. Fuck Wactor.

I just discovered Meica recently. I had no idea she was originally in Wactor. Sadly, there very few spanish-speaking vtubers. Most of them are indies and they are very small. Probably Wactor's reputation hurted so much the spanish audience that is very hard to new vtubers make a way through it

What's surprising is why does that company even be a black company in the first place? It doesn't take a fool to know that there's definitely no merit in doing that. If there is, It's only the profits that they gained during the early phase. If only this company started without Its dark intentions, they surely must've been one of the top big companies now.
