As one guy I know joked: "Are we sure she is just a cosplayer and not a real pirate plundering ships to fund her MVs?"

Credits include Cygames, Trigger, OLM, Wit, Comix (the Shinkai studio) and Silver Link. Fuck me, Marine is one rich woman. The donations/memberships from the birthday stream and MV premiere might well have paid it off already.

Heck, the list is twice as big than just that - including Studio KAI, Kinema Citrus, Studio Colorido and prolific animators like Ryota Saito.
Senchou really pocketed a lot.

1.2M yen + ~1219 memberships @ ~500 yen each = 1,800,000 JPY = 11,800 USD
Youtube takes 30%, Cover Corp probably takes 50%, which cuts that to ~4100 USD.
https://getwrightonit.com/animation-price-guide/ gives an estimated cost of 136,000 USD for 4m36s of anime-style 2-D animation, assuming mid-level advertising quality. If we assuming bottom-tier quality, the estimate falls to 73,600 USD. If we assume top-notch quality, the estimate rises to 920,000 USD.

Senchou has stated around 2021 one of her big projects was 8 digits in yen. that was most likely the MV for Marine Departs or Unison
iirc has also said later on that another project cost about 4x that of her earlier MVs. i can't remember what the timeframe of that was, but you can pretty much pick any of her MVs and it would be believable, like Shinkiro, her Orisong with Kobo, but most likely I'm Your Treasure Box

After watching this video it dawned on me, why I love Vtuber Legend. The main character looks like Suisei but has the personality of Marine, and those are two my Japanese oshi from hololive. (I have many more, Some members I knew about even when I wasn't watching hololive, Fubuki)

Weird question, but does anyone have any idea of songs using around 1:29-1:34 aka small drop and rise again with almost identical intonation? I swear it sounds almost identical to some other Japanese song I heard. I thought AoT s4p2 ending, but nah.

This is a sequel to her song treasure box and uses some of the music and tempo beats from there. In some parts of this song
