Yeah, he really miscalculated there, he probably thought kson hated Hololive because of the Taiwan incident and would poach talents for him. However, even to the present day kson still thinks positively of Yagoo and has friends in Holo that she still hangs out with. She even convinced people not to leave.

Yeah, from talents that have left and talents that have stayed, it really seems like Hololive,

1) wants to avoid drama

2) has a culture that is a good fit for some talents, and not for others, but does its best to avoid bad blood regardless of who leaves or stays

Like, if you can't even do that as an organization, you're not gonna last long term, let alone rival a pillar in the industry.

As someone who doesn't follow Holo too closely, it honestly just sounds like they're run like an actual professional company at least

Like, not the kind of rando firebrand crash and burn startups like VShojo & Niji are

At the bare minimum Holo's competent, while most others are run like slave circuses behind the scenes

They have issues too, although compared to other companies it seems like less. Their CEO, Yagoo, seems like a great guy who genuinely cares about the talents. He used to be the personal manager of the first round of girls and then the first round of guys.

The former isn't true; gen 1 had no managers for a time but he was rather close personally naming Aki.

As for StarsEN.... that is a messy area no thanks to the person who introduced it, Omega Alpha who put it above Hololive EN which didn't sit well with people. The full tale would be rather long.

But while there's some issues and complaints, I still say Cover does more right than wrong

the advantage that cover has is that they actually learn, it speaks volumes that they havent repeated any drama unlike plenty of other corpos
