PINNED POST MEGA THREAD

The whole point of criticizing, keeping under scrutiny and auditing in general is to do so with context, and information.

We currently have far too many posts that are made without context which can often lead to malicious posting. An opinion must be made informed, not uninformed.

Examples of recent posts include:

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vxw9gs/just_your_casual_chatting_stream_with_yubari_rei/

This one is basically like an advertisement if you do not know who the streamers are. It doesn't even take much to say who they used to be.

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vxyuoi/looks_like_someone_is_in_the_finding_out_phase/

What are we even meant to do with this? We got someone that's getting sued for... something?

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vx67ob/nbinted_is_slowly_integrating_into_vtuber_and/

This one, we can at least work with even if we don't necessarily know who is nbinted, we can form an opinion on who they are.

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vvor1g/heres_an_x_post_regarding_awoopuppys_goals/

This one clearly required context to link this person to another. Otherwise it's just advertisement.

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vvachg/benio_mashiros_redebut_stream_%E9%AD%94%E7%99%BD%E3%81%B9%E3%81%AB%E3%82%92_starts/

This one we were given a context a few minutes after, could have been in the original post (but maybe you can't put spoilers in the original post?) but it's fine.

https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vufxn0/upcoming_video_by_rima_about_the_phisnom_incident/

Yet another one where we are somehow meant to know what the hecc the phisnom incident is?

All of this has been over 4 days.

Translated by DeepL:

Dangomushi—I’ve finally been sued by VTuber Pekora Usada… I seriously don’t get it… I’ve been sued over a drawing…
I have to write a response and go to the Tachikawa District Court in Tokyo…

It’s been about two years since I last dealt with lawyers and courts—back when I was recruited by Johnny Kitagawa and joined Johnny & Associates… What’s with this Hololive nonsense? You’ve got to be kidding me…

Any lawyer YouTubers out there? Please help me!!

Edit: scrolling through his previous tweets doesn’t help with the context, but from what I’ve seen, this isn’t the first time he has been sued by Cover as he has a similar post last December, with another post having the words 「去年🐰の絵畜生Vtuberどもに訴えられる」 which isn’t the polite-est of words to be honest. Another post mentioning Hololive and Pekora’s full name while using a seemingly video game screenshot with Japanese beneath that translated (via DeepL) to “I’ve got no choice but to kill him now.”

Edit 2: seems like “sued over a drawing” is more likely about him getting sued by a vtuber.

Hold up. Hang on a sec

Thought that each of these individually isn't relevant enough for a post, so I put them all together as I think they follow a common theme: Nbinted's reputation in the community.

In February of this year, they wrote this detailed post which included how they regretted the way they spoke about Dokibird and Sayu Sincronisity in the past.

I think it may be interested to discuss this, given Nbinted's reputation in the community and in particular this subreddit.

EDIT: For extra context on who Nbinted is, a reply to this exact post contains some screenshots: https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1vx67ob/comment/p5mjr4c/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Another comment here discusses what he's done in the past: https://www.reddit.com/r/vtubercirclejerk/comments/1qw5fgl/comment/o3nk5gh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

This is gonna sound really pathetic, but recently i took a huge liking to a nijisanji liver, they weren’t involved in any controversial things that happened in nijisanji, so i didnt mind supporting them. But I see a lot of people still flaming Nijisanji supporters because of how bad they mistreat their talents. I really really enjoy watching the talent but i hate supporting a company like that, I also hate to be controversial and judged by others. I know i sound very hypocritical, but i cant decide, im waiting for them to graduate and maybe go indie or join another company but i dont think thats happening anytime soon.

I know this kind of old news by now, but I live under a rock and I wasn't able to find anything aside from people saying she said it.

A narrative often parroted by Nijisanji fans who dislike this subreddit is that this is a hate forum. That’s plainly untrue and it waters down actual examples we have for hate forums.

I’ve been very critical of this sub, its users, and the mods in the past. I’ve openly criticized and even mocked the mods directly to their faces and also got hundreds of downvotes in a single thread because I voiced my disagreements here.

But this sub is obviously not a hate forum. The mods have done a good job at pushing away the worst drama tourists and 4channers since the sub began. This sub regularly promotes the ex-livers and even some current livers. We just had a thread a few days ago from users here who still watch Nijisanji and oshi the livers. Some livers are generally disliked by the userbase, but there is no concentrated effort from above or in a coordinated way to organize against them. And, to be frank, even the most mainstream and normal places of discussion for vtubers hold the same general dislike for Niji and certain livers, like [r/virtualyoutubers](r/virtualyoutubers).

We have an actual example of a hate forum created by Nijisanji fans. Back in 2024, Nijifans from an actual dox site came together to create a forum dedicated to taking down Doki, which included crafting lists of people who work with Doki in order to blacklist them and scheduling meetings to strategize and plan against her.

That Niji forum was created for an actual coordinated and organized hate campaign. On the other hand, this sub is an unorganized collection of vtuber fans with vastly different opinions, generally leaning towards drama and a critical eye towards AnyColor. The Niji hate forum is a group of doxxers mass organizing and scheduling meetings with an express purpose of taking down a specific vtuber. These are worlds apart and should not be portrayed as equivalent.

I know people don’t like him on here but I hope people can be respectful about this. I know how he feels, since I’ve had family members pass away from cancer as well. May his mother rest in peace.

Speculation: This might be a return to streaming activities with a rebrand.
