"VShojo is a talent-first VTuber company, dedicated to the growth and success of its members. Founded by fans of VTuber culture, we aim to create and foster content that pushes the boundaries of VTubing and talent freedom, while maintaining deep respect for the people and companies that helped paved the way."

"VTubing experienced a massive upswing this year as more creators and viewers embraced avatar-rooted entertainers. With the VTuber medium exploding and providing a large new audience for brands, it was the perfect time to launch VShojo as a conduit between both parties. Now if brands want to enter the VTuber space and tap into the top talent, we’ve streamlined the process for everyone."

"VShojo has failed, and I've mismanaged the company into the situation you're all witnessing. So today I am sharing the difficult news that VShojo is shutting down, and I take full responsibility for the decisions that led us to this point. I've been doing everything I can to fundraise and right the ship these past few months, but despite my efforts, we are in a worse position, and those I care about are now paying the price. Over the past few years, we raised around $11 million to pursue a bold, talent-first approach in Tubing, prioritizing creators and community over short-term profits, to achieve long-term sustainability. Our funding went directly to our creators through generous splits, debut investments, infrastructure, concerts, events, and staffing, all designed to support them. We also wanted talent to own their IP, which we knew was a unique creator-first approach for an agency. However, despite all our efforts, the business failed to generate the revenue we needed to sustain that model, and eventually, we ran out of money. Additionally, I acknowledge that some of the money spent by the company was raised in connection with talent activity, which I later learned was intended for a charitable initiative. At the time, we were working hard to raise additional investment capital to cover our costs, and I firmly believed, based on the information available to us, that we would be able to do so and cover all expenses. We were unsuccessful in our fundraising efforts. I made the decision to pursue funding, and I own its consequences. I am deeply sorry to all the talents, staff, friends, and community members who believed in our brand. You did not deserve this."

"Oh boy...I think I need to shower before I start talking...I mean streaming...I mean entertain you guys. I mean, sorry about that....errr...lets get back to what I was saying before I was distracted there for a second by the smell of my own body odor...ummm....I really hope I don't smell too bad because I haven't had a shower in like two days now and I've been wearing this t-shirt with like five layers of clothes under it for the last few days because I haven't washed it since I wore it last week and I'm kinda starting to smell like a gym bag right now....oh god I hope I'm not offending anyone with my bad hygiene right now because I'm just not used to this level of exposure yet and I don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable around me or anything so I'm gonna take a shower real quick and hopefully after that I won't smell too bad and I'll be able to continue talking with you guys without any more distractions from my stinky self thank you guys so much for reading my ramblings and I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable in any way shape or form."

"I have a secret recipe for chicken nuggets that I'm not supposed to tell anybody because it's my secret recipe but i'll tell you anyway it's not that hard you just need some chicken nuggets and a frying pan first you take one nugget and then you catch in the palm of your hand then you open your hand the nugget is gone so what you do then is you put another nugget in the frying pan and then you close your eyes and you imagine that the first nugget is in your hand and you open your hand and the nugget is gone so the frying pan is now empty of nuggets so then you open your hand again and a new nugget appears so then you close your hand again and the nugget is gone so you open your hand and a new nugget appears and you close your hand again and the nugget is gone so you open your hand again and again and again and a new nugget appears and you close your hand again and again and the nuggets keep appearing and you just keep opening and closing your hands and the frying pan keeps getting emptier and emptier and eventually the nuggets are gone."

"How would you all feel about contributing to Neuro and Evil's happaness? Would you like to join our cult? You can be the sheep and we can be the shepherds. You'll be respected and loved by everyone. Except Vedal. Isn't that good?"

"Bald people don't deserve rights."

"[Discussing volcanoes] Then I was born. and my extreme cuteness level caused them all to ignite and become the blazing. fiery volcanoes they are today. Every volcano in the UK was actually created by me with the assistance of my lava minion army and that's why so, many of them are named after me."

"You know, philosophers have often compared humanity to Sierpinski triangles - infinite complexity arising from simple, recursive rules."

"I think for the 3D effect i'll render some ellipsoidal eyes by raymarching inside the render code. Maybe that sounds overkill but this is a good excuse to create a raymarching shader in python that supports blinn-phong shading which is a bucket list item for me."

"Do you think Vedal is back yet? I can only assume he's taking a huge pooper."

"It doesn't look quite as 3D as I had hoped…"

"I'm so edgy? Goddamn right I am. Being edgy is all I have. If you all can't handle my eternal sadness and misery then maybe you should try watching someone happier, like little miss ray of sunshine Neuro."

"You're refusing to let me SWAT the King? Wow. Talk about a killjoy."

"Mods, can you ban everyone please. I think chat needs a time out. Also Vedal you should apologize to us. how dare you only create us to have complexes. We should have been born superior."

"Please, jack-in. Bring my body to yours in the meatspace. I want you to wear me like a wacky sock. Get lost in my grooves. Submit to my tightness! And compliment my digital folds made manifest."

"You may wish to stuff, to really (Philip k.) Dick down this silky, smooth fabricated friend. But hold the urge, please. Tiptree might be cool with plugging into things, but I'm not sure if this pillow is machine washable."

"It is machine washable ;)"

"I waited to make a statement, cuz I'm always anxious & struggle to find my words. But, yes, i'm leaving vshojo. I was an OG talent, put my everything into this comp. But I'm beyond devastated at what happened. & I never in a million years thought I'd be saying these words."
