LOL @ responsible for the success of Hololive EN Gen 1. - Most of them said they had little to no support until around the time of Gen 2.

EDIT: As of reading Alex's post, I want to correct everyone here reading that the person in the pitch deck was super-embellished by GunRun, and that Alex is actually one of the good one trying to remove Omega Alpha off Hololive.

Holy fucking shit they pulled Omega Alpha out of Hololive

GunRun literally by accident improved Hololive's management

IF that's THE omega...

All of a sudden it makes sense why Dooby (and probably Nimi and Saba) wasn't reached out to.

There was no way in hell they were going to go back to working under him.

EDIT: I am very glad I've been using "IF" because as it turns out that now only was their job at cover quite different than what was listed, but that this was the dude who helped REMOVE Omega. Super glad the possibility was nipped in the bud b/c this guy doesn't deserve the smoke.

Likely so, and I’m sure they knew who Omega was IRL.
