Oh look, more identical prison-tier “merch”

>>72866117
How is he going to sign them this time? He can't write in cursive lmao

i wonder how drastically different the signature will be

>>72866117
The fucking timing

>>72866515
I think they gonna use the management version

Is this the Niji standard for b-day merch?

>>72866117
The identical merch aside, is there any reason for the 5 delay between the announcement and actual sale going live?

>>72866117
Anyone got that screencap proving 1bu and Luca are the same person?

>>72866769
Sadly, yes

>>72866769
Yup.
Everyone gets the exact same thing.

No one's forcing you to buy it.

>>72866769
Yeah, Riku bought the machines and put children to make the merch 24/7. 80% of their merch is exactly the same thing

>>72867082
I came here to laugh at you

>>72866117
>2%

>>72866117
T-thanks

>>72867449
>I came

>>72866769
Unfortunately (fortunately since it's Luca), yes

>>72866769
Generic merch with 2% cut.

>>72867340
>the so-called royalty of nijiEN
>It's members are millionaires
How come they got worse merch than fucking homostars?

>>72867449
LMAO look at all of those retarded fujo got scammed KEK

>>72867449
Wonder if they’ll even let him sign merch from now on.

>>72866117
They actually changed the signature

>>72868064
kek

>>72867449
Oh no no no no no

>>72868064
In related news, they know they got caught

>>72866117
>still no punishment for breaking contract
there is no favoritism in nijisanji...

>>72867082

>>72868699
KEK

>>72868489
If anybody else gets terminated for breaking contract and Luca still hasn't, can't they sue?

>>72868489
b-but Vox said...

>>72868064
>>72866562
so? which one is it? or is it a new one? did you guys compare them? hopefully the management making them gets paid somehow
>>72868746
you can always leave if you don't like it

>>72867449
>luca's handwriting is so round and girly

>>72868827
This is 2023

>>72866769
On the other front. Does Holo have a standard bday merch?

>>72869027
I wonder if that anon knew subconsciously but ignored it anyways.

>>72866117
was this voice written by his gf too?

>>72869027
Lucy Kaneshiro...

>>72866769
There's a longer one, but I don't have it saved.

>>72869229
Aside from some kind of acrylic stand product, no.

>>72868699
stop it they are already dead

>>72869415
Jesus christ, literal cookie cutter manufactured merch

I guess they are onbrand for being an "Entertainment Factory".

>>72867449
Kek. I wonder if they still refuse to accept that it may not have been luca who wrote it.

>>72866117
Roru which of his Discord mods did he rope into slaving away for him this time?
Or did he swindle Meloco into doing it?

>>72869384
This is the amount of effort your supas are going to. Total Nijinigger death

>>72869415
People are really ok with this?

>>72866515
would be kino if it was the same, I bet the girl is still secretly simping for him

>>72866117
i hate this kinda merch so much. soulless, mass produced chinese merch.
even homostars got a better treatment than vox and luca.

>>72870629
To be clear, homos also got their own version of cookie cutter merchs starting from last year.
BUT they still have 1 personalized item in each of them as opposed to the nijis.

>>72866416
>>72866515
He is using the same one, raziel said that she didn't handsign this one, but that Luca is also too dumb to draw the chibi luca so it wasn't him either

>>72870629
https://shop.hololivepro.com/en/products/hanasakimiyabi_bd2024
let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. male vtubers just aren't very popular or valuable.

>>72870956
At the risk of being called sister
>What is ROF-MAO

>>72870692
>>72870956
they still did a decent job for them.
compared to niji's? if i was a women and dig male chuuba i'd take homostars.

>>72870932
Wasn't that one a manager made anyway?

>>72870956
yeah isn't that the usual? then stuff like >>72870629 is like custom merch the talents make and get a bigger cut of the revenue like Mio's hoodie, or was it some other merch that she basically asked to stock too much so she remembered the miofa if they wanted to buy it?

>>72871129
No, homos merch are getting standardized from last year, holos don't.

>>72871167
ah gotcha, well I guess that's what they have to do to keep making their merch lucrative

>>72871043
The numbers speak differently though. It is changing due to the drama from earlier this year but at best, you can only say they are equal at this moment in time. Cover is great at girl talents but they clearly have a ways to go for male ones.

>>72871327
>Let's give our less popular branch a set of standardized merch + 1 personalized item in order to not cannibalize their fanbase
Yeah it's pretty logical business practice.
I don't see the logic between what nijis do though.

>>72871451
>I don't see the logic between what nijis do though.
It saves money that's why

>>72871524
But not really? they still have their regular merch run.
remember what Miosha said about only releasing few merch and rarely do a rerun because all that do is bleeding your fanbase dry?

>>72866416
hire another person to copy her penmanship. I'm sure there are a lot of those in fiverr

speaking of, did mio confirm when her jacket is rerunning?

>>72871742
Not yet

>>72868064
HAHAAHAHAHA

>>72866610
I enjoy this esoteric meme

>>72868064
Raziel's legacy erased...

But also confirmed 101% legit. If they were gonna try to bluff that it was all an elaborate hoax they could have not changed it, to fit the way they are playing it with Luca pretending nothing happened. Instead now we see they are aware and they are conscious about how bad it looks. I mean one can say it was damned either way because if they kept it people would be commenting "lmaooo it's raziel's signature" but instead we got "lmaooo it's not raziel's signature"

>>72872296
they keep putting themselves into these unwinnable situations and it's really fun to watch

>>72867449
the absolute state of sisters

>>72872467
The absolute cope

>>72872467
The sisters perfectly embody every single insult they throw out at their opposition. Absolutely pathetic, but expected.

>>72872467
Putting the handwriting aside he literally had someone else sign his signature

>>72869229
Holos sometimes get the same type of merch but to me it feels like it's that way because cover gets a deal with someone and they can produce the kind of merch the members have been waiting to make or it's popular at the moment

>>72866117
NO REFUNDS

>>72872467
Kek

>>72871042
enfags don't know about jp

>>72872467
they're not wrong. no different than getting some fake stamped signature, the person didn't write it

>>72866117
seethe more faggot. over 12k likes, if even 10% actually buy stuff that's a nice chunk of change.

>>72872952
Hey anon you got the wrong board, the yellow whore worshipping board is two blocks down

>>72872296
isn't this just new merch so they had him redraw it? i want to be wrong because its much funnier if i am

>>72871064
>Raziel

>>72873071
Probably but considering how different it looks to the other one it's kind of obvious he didn't do one of them

>>72872679
If anything they are even worse at coping than the most beta of incel males. What's happened here would be fucking ripped on and made fun of fucking endlessly for the rest of time if it was say a Holo girl (same for a Niji girl or perhaps even more jeering and biting if it was a disliked one like Enna). Memes ripping on her would be bouncing around and it would be impossible to talk about her or even say her name without someone making fun of her. Instead with Luca you have fucking incontrovertible proof he is a fraud in every single way and yet you go into the nijien thread and see people posting "luca wuca :3" pretending they do not have all the eggs in the kitchen on their faces. Are they fucking insane or brain damaged? In before someone answers "they're women", I know that, but they seem particularly deluded even for women. Maybe they are straight up paid shills doing it for giftcards trying to hang onto the fucking tatters of nijiEN's reputation.

>>72868064
what the different ?

>>72870629
Still waiting for Flayon to release that Tenga collab merch that he promised

>>72866117
kek at least sisters dont feel like they missed out on buying merch because its literally the same crap every year

>>72872467
This is like that time when that one vtuber sold her gaming chair to her top simp for like $1000 to sniff and then it turned out it was actually her boyfriend's and they were laughing about it on Discord

>>72868699
KEK

>>72872467
Isn't the technical term for this "ghostwriting", or am I mistaken?

>>72872467

>>72873140
Yumejoshi are more delusional than any man can dare match, bar insanity.

>>72871406
what am i looking at here?
also that purple guy with sub 400 ccv is mental. must be shitty at streaming.

>>72873140
Wouldn't even be surprised if a double drunk, zonked out of his mind Luca was in some of them pretending to be his fans.
The dude used burner accounts to fuck around on twitter, ego searches on /here/. If he was already mentally scrambled while he was still with Razzle as she claims, one could only imagine the headspace that he's in now.

>>72871406
>that huge 2k drop between Bae and Luca
Holy wow, that's dire.
>>72872467
lmao didn't she write everything and he just said yeah whatever. That cope is sad.

>>72873925
Pretty sure he did just delegate that role to her, yeah. Not that it makes a difference to those that are already putting blinders on to his duplicity.

>>72872467
Holy shit nijisisters got cucked. lmao poor fujokeks

>>72866416
Give it to me straight... are my Rosemi and Petra merch signed by them or by some random staff fucker?

>>72866610

>>72872467
I love that they've already accepted Raziel's words as truth.
Not even denying the allergations. Just outright coping with "This is fine"

>>72875863
They are at the "IT'S REAL BUT IT'S NOT THAT BAD OKAY" phase

>>72875514
Probably not but you never know

>>72872467
>Buy an autograph.
>It’s not written by the person.
>Cope his feelings are in it to not admit you have been scammed.
In the words of our oriental brothers, nothing beats the woman jutsu in avoiding the truth.

Why Holofags blame so much that the autograph was not written by Luca?

>>72877234
Sister, your eigo reps

>>72877234
Not a holofag but I will explain the logic to you, my dear cultist nijisister:
The whole point of getting an autograph is the fact that the guy that signed it is the guy that signed it (as redundant as that sounds).
If you, say, want a John Cena autograph, it would lose all its value, both monetary and sentimental, if it wasn't signed by John Cena and instead by intern #314.
The same issue happens with Luca. To those who cared about him, the fact that HE was signing it was worth more than the signature itself. But the things were not signed by him, but rather his GF. It's not even BFE sister cope (since GF and whatnot), but rather the perceived betrayal as the promise of autograph was fake.
It's this fact that everyone mocks, the Luca fans cry about and the niji defense force copes about.
It's in the word: Autograph literally means "something written by your own hand". It, by definition, isn't a Luca autograph if someone else made it.

>>72870956
This one is getting more in SC's than half of Hololive, including talents like Suisei, Towa, Bae or Mumei... I'm pretty sure his merch will sell well.

>>72877474
You should post this on that site of theirs and show us how they cope with your ironclad logic

>>72871167
Stop lying sis... what exactly is 'standardized' about this?

>>72878490
the machitroon set is the only one that looks personalized at first glance

>>72875514
Rosemi's done her signature live multiple times

>>72878490
postcards and voice packs, i guess

>>72878490
Retardo, Cover is not THAT heartless to give new guys standardized set, they're not Anykuro.
I bet the standardized set will be in effect next year for Tempus merch

>>72878490
Look at last year homo JP merch excluding Uproar anon.

Every day I'm thankful homos get the bare minimum from cover

>>72867082
No one loves you

>>72875514
I'm giving the benefit of the doubt towards nijien sans Luca.
He's just too fucking lazy, I mean his job is to play minecraft on camera and yet he couldn't even be bothered to do it.
I've seen more motivated kid with down syndrome than him.

>>72878777
That's pretty standard for Hololive members too. Both Bae and Roboco for example, are selling a card and voice pack in the Birthday merch. It really depends on the talent what they would like to sell.

>>72878968
Anon, when we're talking standardized merch, we're talking about shit like this >>72869384
Voice packs and signed cards are just the norm for vtubers and entertainer in general.

>>72878968
i don't think I've ever seen a single holo birthday without unique merch

>>72879028
Yep, not even the homos.

>>72878821
New guys? Miyabi is from Gen1 anon. UPROAR are in their 3rd year now. So is Altaire. The only 'new' guy here is Machiroon - if you consider someone who debuted 15 months ago, new.

>>72879002
I am talking with those guys, who are trying to pretend that the Holostars age getting standardized merch, because their packs have post cards and voice packs along the unique merch.

>>72879170
Anon, stars jp's merch last year are standardized.
The standardized merch consisted of
>Acrylic panel
>Button
>Emblem keychain
And then they get one or two personalized one.
Just look at Ogaman and Aran's birthday merch for example.

>>72879221
No one's calling them standardized because it has vp and postcards retard.
Look at this Oga BD merch and compare it to Miyabi >>72878490

>Of the top 10 male chuubas, 4 are from Holostars and 6 are from Nijisanji

>the percentage carries to the top 20 as well (Holostars 8/20 vs Nijisanji 12/20)

Idk anon Stars are doing just fine, if they aren't successful then neither are the Nijimales

>>72866117
>fans buy merch with handwritten signatures
>spread a rumour that your handwritten signatures were forged
>release merch that totally has your actual signature on it for real this time
>fans buy the new merch for the authentic signature
>repeat
Luca's simply too smart, the grift to end all grifts

>>72878375
It's not even my logic, it's just the logic of creations. A real confirmed Michael Jackson signature on a book is worth a fuckton. A fake signature is not worth anything, perhaps even reducing the total worth of the book itself.
The only time a fake is worth something is with big famous art. An original Picasso is worth a fuckton. A fake pretending to be real is worth a ton BECAUSE people think it is real.
A reproduction is worth a bit because it recreates the real one but doesn't pretend to be real.

>>72872467
kek

>>72881309
I wouldn't trust him not to simply hire someone else.

>>72871406
Niji get better numbers because they came before and took advantage of the boom, not to mention that many potential fangirls get scared by holobronies so they go to niji.

>>72888203
Are you on crack at the moment?

>>72870243
People aren't, Sisters are but sisters aren't people.
