If you get pitched the idea of working for a japanese company with insane restrictions, dont own the content you make but still have to pay your own money to make it and you split the revenue with them. That does sound like a scam/exploitation.
@@TheSlithicetbf from the sounds of it for her Vshojo was the exception not Niji. She mentions a lot of her jobs prior had a similar job where they didn’t really have her back or care about her any or do anything for her side from a paycheck. Niji probably was extra bad with how she was completely abandoned though (but that was after she joined that the ID branch got completely abandoned)
No, her mother didn't catch onto Nijisanji, she was most likely simply suspicious of the "industry" as a whole. Back then, there would not have been any clear reason to have bad vibes about Nijisanji particularly, she most likely would've been just as suspicious about it if it had been Hololive or Vshojo of today, and had she ended up with those companies, things would've most likely turned out just fine, and that would've proved the mother and her suspicions wrong. Sure, she ended up being right about the suspicions, but not for the reason of "she somehow instinctively knew", more like she probably knew of some horror stories about the entertainment industry and that's why she didn't want Michi to do it.
Saying "I'm under NDA for that time" is a perfectly viable statement regarding supposed "gaps" in your resume like that. And as long as your general presence doesn't scream "fraud", they'll be more likely to believe you than not. Heck, even if you were ballsy enough to fake such a thing, that confidence alone might get you hired... Any company worth working for will understand that there are some things you're required to keep secret - and if they don't that would be a HUGE red flag anyway.
Yea... she could've mention the full company name in her CV and job as a content creator with xxx thousand subscribers or declare that she's in a stealth company but still write her position as a content creator. No specifics are required.
Hearing the bit about "You don't know how I am" reminds of a story from Game Grumps, where Danny mentioned he wanted to do that one time just as a farce, "Don't you know who I am? I wrote a song about dinosaurs and lasers in 2010."
To put into perspective and prove that Michi is not just humbling herself about 200 or 300 bucks being pretty good for a month's pay, the newest DancingBacon's video had the guy order 2 Combo Meal with chickens and rice, 1 full bucket of crispy chickens, 2 drinks, 1 sundae and 2 desserts for 400k+ Rupiahs, or 27 dollars. And that is considered wasteful cause if you ask any Indonesians, they could definitely parse that amount of money for 2-5 days worth of food.
@@kerbethegodkiller2914 you cant really compare economy in southeast asia with dollar value. with just 400-500 bucks per household, you can pretty much get married, own a house and sustain that with a kid or two. I had friends getting married at 21 with no issues.
Goddammit, Michi. How can you go from GirlFailure 9000 Mk. II to FUCKIN' BASED numerous times in the span of a single stream? This woman is something, alright! Her family sounds interesting too!!
Michi "no Bikini model til my mom approves" No one tell Michi she's had an R34 page since she jumped off the roof of Vshojo in her Pre debut video series.
To be fair it's typical Asian parents. Also Vtuber is a very volatile kind of job. There are hundreds of competitions out there vying for either local or international weeb market. Also the fact that she got "scammed" in her first run by THAT company that made her almost bankrupt, her parents is in the right to be worried about her career choice. Of course now she's successful but her start was pretty rough. I wonder if her mom so called "intuition" about that company is right or she's just being spiteful again. At least she have good feeling for Vshojo lol. Also I wonder who's the guy she's talking about. At first I thought he's Indonesian. But then the girl he's talking to talked about prom. Something that don't exist in Indonesia. Unless it's event done by the students themselves if they got inspired from American culture.
Ah hah! The pieces now fit together! During her idle time, she'd talk to and hang out with her friends, including Mata. Then came the cooking stream, and then VShojo dropped her the invitation.
At first i was like why are her chat spamming the oh no hamster emote and :aware: but holy balls that took a turn. Michi's life is... eventful to say the least and what a bloody small world we stand on.
I wonder if one day vtubers will be free of both legal constraints and the constraints of vtubing culture to openly talk about their past lives... that happened in a dream their friend's cousin's fish had of course. By the constraints of vtubing culture what I mean is that it feels like many fans don't even like their vtubers breaking certain "taboos" like showing any part of their real body, speaking about "past lives", etc.. Granted I am still relatively new to the whole vtubing world and not well versed in everything but this has been my observation.
Yeah, a lot of fans are like that, but recently there has been a lot of progress, especially outside of corporate streaming. Even in Vshojo Kuro streams his irl face sometimes, Quinn (indie) also does that, Matara said she might do it in the future when she is more comfortable (and everyone supports it). Onigiri has been doing hand streams for cooking for a long while now. One of Holostars boys flashed skin on stream multiple times and the vod wasn’t taken down or edited. So it’s definitely more flexible.
"like omg chat you wanna put your [rooster] between my [michis], like none of that and like jiggle my [michis]" Ngl bros neurons got activated for a moment there despite the sarcasm
11:17 "Have you ever gone to prom before?" Is legitimately a great question for determining someone's age without coming off as a creep. Obviously it could just as easily be used nefariously, but given Michi's position that was a 5head move imo.
Indonesian thing "Heaven is in Mother ankle", most indonesian do experience this there even folklore about a kid get turn into stone for denying His mother (God hear Mother Prayer more)
You know when you're telling a story, you don't wanna tell, but you no longer want it lurking around the dark corners of your mind? No? Oh... Yeah. That's what this is.
Countries that profit from exporting good/labor intentionally devalue their own currencies because this is more profitable for large businesses. And under capitalism businesses own governments - so regular people sufffer lower wages.
Michimama not only guessed right about being accepted and guessed right about the worst is actually getting accepted. I feel like just say she had a NDA for the gap, it would be good. Also solid advice on not pandering into the type of audience who likes lewd, sussy, or fan services. Not that it is bad, but if one isn't comfortable or wants to focus on building personality-based and not model-based community, it is better in the long run.
Michi's mom is basically a psychic.
That "now I'm curious and filled with spite " line was hilarious.
The dude: "You'll never make it as a streamer."
Michi: "And I took that personally."
Let it be a lesson, if the desire of success is not enough, let it be out of spite
Crazy that her mother's instinct caugh onto kurosanji

Also predicting Vshojo basically
Those motherly instincts kicking in

"Once upon a dream"
Pretty sure it was more of a nightmare, Michi. And your parents were right on the money.

vShojo is mom approved
lmao I was looking for that comment, I just had the same thing in mind. Vshojo is officially Mom approved.

The fact that michi decided to start a career of streaming in order to spite a groomer is insane but so fitting

Yeah probably influenced or under a western/European academy, I have friends from a school in Indonesia where prom exists
Schools in Indonesia that are International or private like JIS and Santa Maria have prom.
@@FlotationDevice101 Then that guy got balls trying to hit on rich people's kids. The parents sometimes got political and police influence.
Nah, I was on public school and we had prom too

man , Mochi's mom is very goated 🫡
Michi's mom is right. Set boundaries up front and you will have a more respectful fanbase. It's true for all relationships really.
Huh…maybe I should ask Michi’s mom what job I should look for.
I hope michi drops a clothing lone for us
Spite is the strongest motivating force in the universe.
People who believe this are haters. Their primary emotion is hate.
@@KWifler Sometimes we just want to prove to someone they're wrong.
damn that sounds like a certified lover boy

It went from "Once upon a dream" to "THIS IS A NIGHTMARE"
Three cheers for Momchievee!
mom be like "anycolor eh? looks dark"
Goddamn streamers hit the 1k mark and immediately become creeps wtf
14:09 this quote for some reason it reminds me of the creator ed, edd and eddy REALLY made the cartoon out of spite
17:00 wait she couldn't even tell future employers?
Michi's mom is just great!
15:50 HER MUM KNOWS 💀💀 The psychic skill runs deep in her family, huh?
ok so michi's mom actually see future ? damn that's such a cool mom power
That was a hell of a dream
Michi's mom is god, confirmed. Though she denies it, she either can see the future or manifest a future for Michi.
Indonesian thing "Heaven is in Mother ankle", most indonesian do experience this there even folklore about a kid get turn into stone for denying His mother (God hear Mother Prayer more)
I now want Momchievee to stream and give her side
Spite is good motivation. I’ve done the same thing
Bless her mom 😂
Her mom sounds like mine when it comes to gut feelings, most of the time she’s right about them
Man, getting paid in usd while living in Indonesia has gotta be nice.
michi's mom is like a god lol
Wow... your mom's instict is amazing 😊
This is the type of story that my Grandma would say, “would you look at God”.
dude! her mom had the mom vibes and came out to be true, what sorcery is this!
I started my Vtuber journey a while back… in Minecraft, for legal reasons
Story Title: Mama knows -Breast- Best
If she was 17 her prom should be happening that year. 17 is the end of high school.
I mean... you know how Asian parents are, mine have similar sentiments when I showed a LOT more interest in this field (of work)
Parents: YOUR DREAM JOB DOESN’T MAKE MONEY! TAKE I.T. OR BE A DOCTOR INSTEAD!
Kid: *Disobeys, job pays ok*
Parents: Ok guess it’s fine……
I did not expect that whole section of michi being friends with a guy who was preying on young girls wtf she just casually dropped that💀
You know when you're telling a story, you don't wanna tell, but you no longer want it lurking around the dark corners of your mind? No? Oh...
Yeah. That's what this is.
Her mom was half right. Her dream materializing was a sweet curse
❤ 👍
Maybe her mom IS god?

Does her mum know about Mel? 😃
yeah I agree with michi, she doesn't need to be a lewdtuber. I don't dislike them(I actually watch some) but it doesn't fit michi.
The dream analogy is quite apt. Nightmare-like even...
Michimama not only guessed right about being accepted and guessed right about the worst is actually getting accepted.
I feel like just say she had a NDA for the gap, it would be good.
Also solid advice on not pandering into the type of audience who likes lewd, sussy, or fan services. Not that it is bad, but if one isn't comfortable or wants to focus on building personality-based and not model-based community, it is better in the long run.
What de hellll
Freshman are 14 not 17.
Mhm
So Michi became a Famous streamer out of spite? Yeah, sounds Asian to me
A mother's instinct is the magical thing
