If a chuuba died while still employed, would management tell us or just quietly graduate her and never mention it again?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8956652
They would either tell us or it would get leaked anyway, it is a thing i sometimes think about though, i mean some of these girls stream for 12-24 hours straight sometimes, and dying while streaming is not something that is unheard of

[Anonymous No.]

>>8956652
That's retarded. I want them to keep up the act and get a new actor to play her. Like some sort of weird skin puppet. That would be funny.

They would need to tell.
No way that other chubas could stream like nothing happened.

[Anonymous No.]

They'd make a horror game about her disappearance, and once you beat it it would be revealed with proof that she is actually dead IRL. They would then ask you to not spoil the ending online.

Idols die or commit suicide all the time.
It's announced by the company, tabloids spill all the juicy details, and everyone mourns/moves on in their own way.
If COVER felt the need to announce Iofi getting the meme virus, they definitely wouldn't try to conceal a death in the company.

They'll tell everyone. A lie never stays eternal, particularly when you lie to a lot of people. So imagine the complete fuckery that would happen if they lie and the truth leaks some time after.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8956652
If they silently graduate her and people find out the truth, the company would literally sink. Not worth it when you can just tell the truth and be done with it.

Would they officially announce the roommate's identity? Do you think chuuba agencies operate on Project Mayhem rules?

[Anonymous No.]

okay, but who will be the first big corpo chuuba to die while still vtubing?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8956652
There's no reason they wouldn't tell. They'd do a press release on Twitter and then I think the deceased's genmates/branch would make some sort of collaborative sendoff or something out of respect.
Idk it sounds weird for them to be in their anime girl dressup livestreaming for someone who died, but I can't imagine them being silent about it if it were to happen

But the Japanese considered her a vtuber and she was in part of those circles, even had a collab with Subaru and Sora 2 years ago.
Looks like they completely deleted her channel now.

OP here
So in my dream, Ina got murdered and Cover refused to say anything other than "she's on hiatus" because everyone would instantly know her real identitiy and the family didn't want to be harassed.
Then word got out and Calli had to beg people to stop harassing her on Twitter, that she couldn't bring back Ina or that Ina couldn't just stream with her in Hell because of "paperwork" and then she just ended up quitting.

True. Imagine if Rushia died and Rushia RL ended up being a married woman with kids.
Only solution is to wait a couple weeks after Rushia dies to announce that she died and hope no schizos are able to doxx her from the info.

I feel like they would 100% let us know they're dead and let other chuubas grieve publicly.

I could see Tamaki accidentally murdering a fellow vtuber. Handing them an exposed wire, hanging them during twister or poisoning them.
She'd try to cover it up by putting the body into the refrigerator but it wouldn't really fit and some limbs awkwardly hang out of it.

>Made 2 uber eats drivers race each other

https://youtube.com/watch?v=4sY2SUz44Ag
>Placed clothespins on her nipples during a endurance stream to the point her nipples caught necrosis and nearly lost them
>Did an endurance stream until 250k where she sang and did flash math at the same time
>Randomly decided to do a stream impersonating Gilzaren III, a chuuba infamous for streaming very infrequently (he was gone for over 3 months) in an attempt to make his channel reach 100k subs, then dragged other people in like Deron and somehow managed to call the real Gilzaren and have a basically inverted totsumachi with him and other people. Her pc crashed / internet disconnected and he was forced to stream the continuation on his channel right as he reached 100k subs
>Hijacked the nyancat relay and sang it for 14 hours straight, leading to kino moments like almost choking trying to eat food
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ntK5v3PsHW4
>Did a cooking stream where she literally made sushi out of worms
>Decided to stream making naan at 4am, and while she was letting the naan dough rest for 10 minutes she grabbed her streaming laptop and went to a park, climbed a jungle gym and started singing at the top of it
>Asked taka (an indonesian man) to teach her how to cook naan (indian cuisine)
https://youtube.com/watch?v=X7Co2VoZLJE
>Did a talk show stream where she imitated hiromoot's zatsudans

This is literally how Kizuna Ai, the first and most successful Vtuber up until that point, was fucking killed. It's so bad that she even had to make a video like a few months ago stating she was the original, even though the incident was years ago.

That already happened before, multiple times.
One example: A vtuber going by the name of Ugokuchan (うごくちゃん)
Her last tweet was
>Can someone please call me back?
https://twitter.com/ugoku_zZ/status/1343389839102595072
She then sadly passed away a few days later on the December 31st, 2020 (unknown reasons).
The company (Studio Coup) then announced her death a few days later.
https://twitter.com/StudioCoup/status/1347343844648443906
https://studio-coup.thecoo.co.jp/news20210108.html
Her family worked with Studio Coup to upload one last video on her Youtube channel, with her singing.
But Youtube apparently terminated her Youtube channel recently, so there's absolutely nothing left.

>We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the people and fans who have helped us in the past for their kindness before her death.
>In accordance with the wishes of his relatives, the funeral service was held in the form of a private burial, so we regret to inform you that we would appreciate it if you would refrain from offering flowers.

>The creators of our company who were close friends, as well as ourselves, are in a state of grief that cannot be expressed in words, but we will continue to do what we can to help her and her family.

>As for the future handling of each SNS account, we will consult with the relatives and choose a place to report the situation later.
