They're a california tech startup. People "invested" a lot of money and they probably burned a lot of it on Kson.
I have no idea how they expect making it back. You're probably better off burning your money than investing in Vshojo.

That's now to sales works. Based on audience numbers and past sales they get a general idea of projected future sales during events and/or online sales. They work out a deal with the manufacturer/supplier and invest X dollars for Y units to be made then put out on sale as limited edition merch. The Y units made is slightly less than the actual demand so due to not enough supply they can justify jacking up the price for a nice profit.

Not puritan. I want my vtuber to pander to *me*, the chat, and hint at sexual intercourse with *me*, instead of telling me about her daily cock intake and how she's managed to shit out a chunk of meat. Is it really that hard for vshoucucks to understand??
