Just want to chill and meet friends. 21. I play honkai and genshin

[Shoto 🗡️ @shxtou]

This is my love letter to the Vtuber community. I genuinely appreciate to have met so many of you all, I feel like my life changed in such an explosive way thanks to my community, the VTuber community, and the earnest generosity, faith, and love my friends have given me all these years. They’ve been nothing but patient and supportive and I always strive to do the exact same while feeling like it’s never enough because they mean the world to me. And it sucks since I’m still working on trying to vocalize that more and more for them to know how much it means they’re in my life. It’s thanks to VTubers that I was able to become a more passionate person, and learn more about who I am. Seeing so many awesome people in this medium inspired and driven is infectious. I truly believe the wonderful people of the VTuber community as a whole has helped me become a better version of myself and it’s a fact I’m eternally grateful for.

I want to say it’s annoying when there are many that still don’t understand what we do as a whole, because there is so much good that has been birthed by the incredible creatives in this space. There are many stories and missions that I’ve had the honor to see or be a part of due to the generosity of those kind souls here. I do feel like that the overall community has changed quite a bit and the landscape of streaming as well over the past 4-5 years. However, I believe the community perseveres through these changes and I know that I am also a product of this change too for the better of my mental, but I hope every VTuber reading knows how inspirational they are and have been to millions of people like myself and continue to do it despite how different the world we live in is now.

Thank you all for being some of the most positively infectious and creative minds I’ve had the pleasure to speak to, to learn from, and to be inspired by. Many of you have helped fueled such a fervent passion for my own craft throughout the years through your art, your content, and your words.

I genuinely love the community and love being here with you wonderful people, even if there are inevitable disagreements, I know we can unite under a common love for the medium. My friends and this community ultimately never fail to make me smile, and I’m glad I’ve gotten to just smile so much more since becoming Shoto. I would not be Shoto without you all, without VTubing. Thank you guys. 💜

and so our NDAs are now void

why i left VSHOJO -

back in 2023, vshojo tried to bully me into one of the most predatory contracts that i have ever seen. when i tried to ask more about it, their COO got extremely hostile with me and refused to answer any of my questions and so i had to hire a lawyer in order to get some clarification.

during the talks, it became clear that vshojo would rather let me go than to take less away from me. they were ultimately wanting me to give up more than half of all my sponsor revenue and over 60% of all merch sales. all i asked from them in return, is to not take a cut of the sponsors that i was getting through Mythic, as that cut was already being taken. they said no, they want it all. and so i asked to leave after being treated like i was disposable in our talks. they basically made it seem like they were my employer, and that they're the reason for my success. that i owe them and that i should be happy to give them my money.

in order for me to leave, they demanded i sign an nda that prevented me from speaking to any of the other talent about it. i could not say why i was leaving, i could not say what the terms that i was saying no to were. i even got in trouble for advising them to hire their own attorneys. they would watch my streams, read my discord, and then threaten to sue me. if i said anything that hinted towards how i really felt about the company, i was threatened with a lawsuit.

another one of their leave terms was that they will announce both me and silver on the same day in order to minimize the damage to their company. their COO has begun to push a narrative on 4chan (yes im serious lmfao) and other social media that i am leaving because i plan to join OTK and that both me and silvervale are troublemakers, so they were "letting" us go. later i found out that nyanners wanted to leave around the same time due to also being unhappy with the contract, but was told that she couldn't because it did not fit their narrative that they were pushing internally AND externally. the amount of hate we've gotten over leaving, from fans calling us greedy bitches to people saying we're abandoning our friends and tossing aside the company because we're successful enough, shit was fucking painful. not being able to say anything sucked.

i only found out i didn't get paid for any of my sponsors after i had already signed the NDA. after 2 years, i have still not been paid back fully. to add insult to injury, they also demanded i had to pay them back 10k for some of the anniversary assets which when they sent me back months later, were half finished.

despite all of that, i've had immense faith that the company has gotten better over the past 2 years. i assumed they rewrote their contracts after losing 3 people due to them and seeing all the new talent join.

clearly this was not the case.

now for some fun facts !!

- their company lawyer has an expired law license. he literally does not practice law anymore, yet he was our point of contact for any legal help we needed.

- they actively pitted us against one another during my time there, and compared our success to others. they tried enforcing streaming schedules so that our viewcount would look better due to less overlap.

- they would ALWAYS shit talk other vtuber agencies. they literally would spend company money to get a tiny dig at them. especially hololive, it literally lived rentfree in gunruns head. they were convinced hololive was over when they signed kson and nazuna.

- our previous talent manager got ghosted for 6 months by gunrun, told not to do any work for us and then got fired for "not doing anything". during this fiasco, we weren't able to get any assistance.

- MTD got reprimanded for being creepy to us. lol. got told not to message us privately. go figure.

- i have proof from other streamers attending their IRL parties that MTD would actively shit talk me after i left the company, to paint me in the worst light imaginabe. dunno why ur acting innocent on twitter pretending u werent aware of anything, can't wait to see all the shit that comes out about you because there's LOADS but those aren't my stories to tell.

thanks for reading and thanks to those who stuck around between then and now. thank you for giving me, silver and nyan the benefit of the doubt when we needed it most. 💙

I’ve been trying to figure out what to say.

Why did you keep dodging my messages and concerns. When I wanted to do 1 o 1’s, you kept dodging or you gave me a short corporate answer. Even when I was under immense pressure from the community for answers about the auditions and I pleaded for a statement by your PR team, you told me it wasn’t needed, you made a tiny video instead, looking like you were hurt and upset, saying sorry, instead of meeting me 1 on 1 for my concerns and I was left crying and frustrated, but like a fucking dog, I went back and happy to even get something from you cause oh man, boss actually answered me. You wanted one finally when you knew everything was crashing around you. Then debuting new talents and such even after the community kept asking about it and kept waving it off and letting me take the punches. I smiled. I fucking brushed it off and kept pushing the company cause I was hopeful for new talent and bringing new people to help. Instead I find you were hiring people without input and poaching without even the idea of truly helping them other then financial gain. We didn’t even know who you were bringing in. You and the team told us to just take it. You and some people were really ready for me to be thrown under over and over. Even when Amalee joined, I begged you to put out a statement regarding auditions before she announced her debut stream. You gave us the middle finger. Me and Amalee had to put out a statement cause your PR team was unfit for their job. I took it all. Why did we have to say anything at all, why did I have to keep taking the fucking damage over and over. You were hurting me well before this. You know you have. I’ve been pushing a company so blindly who didn’t even care for me. But I’m an idiot and I kept believing. I was so excited for this. I spent sleepless nights dealing with constant harassment. And you spent money which you didn’t even have without even warning us on god knows what, and you knew, don’t even lie, you knew that money was for charity and was supposed to be placed to the side to be untouched. Where did 11 million dollars go in less then 3 years even. What happened to all that money.
I’m just really tired from all these years of trying to push for something that kept pushing me to the wolves.
I was so stupid. But I was so excited.
I really trusted you.
We all did.
Despite everything, I don’t wish you any ill will.
I just hope you find some way to make this right.
