To play devil's advocate when it comes to generic merch we have no idea if Hololive is better than Nijisanji. We know hololive talents get a higher split from birthday merch which is why they usually shill it hard but there is no information on generic merch. Japanese idol companies usually keep the vast majority of money from merch sales.

There's been talk of nijis barely getting anything from merch for a while and Pomu said that it's not a great way to support them. Kuzuha said years ago he gets nothing from merch.

It it retarded because it kills any incentive to grow their fanbase. This means Nijisanji has to release new waves constantly in order to continue creating new fans and "growing" the brand.

So yes Nijisanji makes money but the problem is the talents aren't making very much money meaning the talents are extremely limited in how much they can do. There is also zero incentive for the talents to make their own merch or try and go above and beyond. This tends to erode professionalism and giving a fuck from talents. This is essentially what killed NijiKR who had talents graduating and then proceeding to shit all over Nijisanji and their management in their graduation streams.

Nijisanji does not see talents as an investment they are just there to sell vinyl stands... which wouldn't be a problem in itself this becomes a black company situation because Nijisanji is only selling these stands because of the work the talents do. People aren't buying the merch because they love Nijisanji they buy the merch because they believed that they were supporting the talents but if the talent only gets 2% that becomes almost unethical since it means many fans were lied to by Nijisanji.

This is starting to take me back to a time in early vtubing where a large portion of Nijisanji's talents were openly calling Nijisanji a black company.

holo's split is definitely better than niji's, there's a got to be reason why majority of top niconico streamers at that time joined holo, despite holo being the smaller agency at the time

Am I correct in assuming that the 1-3% given to the Nijisanji members from their merch is taken out of the total cost of sale, rather than the ratio between the company and the talents themselves?

Nijisanji typically uses their own storefront for merch.
https://nijisanji-store.com/
So it's more like the livers get 5-10% and then it's a 50/50 split between Anycolor and whoever manufactured the merch. Of course that's after considering manufacturing/shipping costs themselves, so it's normal for merch to have a relatively low profit margin even in other industries.

(Verse 1)
It starts with one sale
One merch design earned but just a fraction
Of what it's worth, Nijisanji takes the rest
And with their profits, they keep on expanding
But in the end, their Vtubers are left with scraps

(Chorus)
I tried so hard to sell it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to grind just to make a dime
But in the end, Nijisanji takes 99%

(Verse 2)
They promised more when we signed up
A fair share of the profits that we bring
But now we see the truth of their greed
They make the rules, and we just follow along
But in the end, we know where we stand

(Chorus)
I tried so hard to sell it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to grind just to make a dime
But in the end, Nijisanji takes 99%

(Bridge)
I put my trust in them to do what's right
But they only care about the bottom line
They take the lion's share, and leave us crumbs
And we're left to wonder where we went wrong

(Chorus)
I tried so hard to sell it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to grind just to make a dime
But in the end, Nijisanji takes 99%

(Outro)
In the end, we'll remember what they did
And we'll move on, find new ways to live
But the scars will remain, a reminder of the past
And we'll never forget the price we paid at last.

Unironically a black company. They love the money their talents bring, they know other they can attract other people with a promise of wealth, but they don’t want a single dime going anywhere else if they can stop it.
Like even Hololive IIRC doesn’t care about roommate activities, the JPs still stream and can also make a living fine on their alts, even Mori and Kiara can too, but I think Cover does a good job making them happy enough that they still want to come back.

When hiring third party to make product, you don't actually know how much it cost to make and instead the cost of goods is the price the third party ask, that price include the third party's profit and they got paid based on how many goods they made which is based on your order.
When you make it in house the cost of goods is whatever it cost you to finish making the product, this include materials, labour, overheads, etc, but no third party profit, because you didn't hire them, which should mean lower cost, which mean higher margin.

One percent, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard I try
Keep that in mind, I didn't design this merch
It's all the same (the same shit)

Waves aren't a valuable thing
Watch them fly by as Riku accelerates
Watch them debut to the end of the week
The numbers of subs go down, it's so unfair (it's so unfair)

Don't look at the blue dorito
Watch their merch sell out the instant
Trying to hold on while Paul Li attacks me
Telling me to improve my numbers (numbers are king)

I am freaking it
And even though I educated myself
My entire career is a yab
When I get graduated my identity
Will be a memory of a time when

Niji has been doing tournament spam to attract tourists, at this point they're doing 2-3 tournaments a month. They recently took over popular previously talent-run events as well.
Niji U for example was a free 3-4 hour massive concert organized by Rindou and Niji took it from her and put it behind a paywall. They took Kenmochi's MK8 tournament and he even said that he doesn't really want to organize events anymore iirc.
Mayuzumi was another big organizer for them but he quit because he didn't like the direction the company was headed.

1-3% sounds grossly negligent.
At most, merch is 1/3 manufacturing, 1/3 shipping/handling/logistics, then 1/3 profit.
So even for the least cost effective merch, talent should be getting 10% at the very least.

Apparently the biggest source of revenue for vtubers are voice packs, superchat has always been known to be a drop in the bucket for them but also apparently merch is not that profitable for them either. The revenue from merch obviously also had to go to the manufacturers/distributors, but the vutber companies apparently take a big cut as well making merch probably matter as little as superchats for vtubers themselves. Not to mention for Hololive especially merch sales are undoubtedly down outside of JP considering the retarded shipping costs. Aside from buying their voicepacks, streamlabs is apparently the 2nd biggest way to support them as streamlabs does not take a cut so that completely gets rid of the 30% that YouTube takes. Never understood why Hololive completely killed pushing streamlabs, aside for the ID branch, cause it seemed like many members who were demonetized wanted it yet it never took off for JP and even EN now.

I have spent so much money on Nijisanji merch it's not even funny. Most of the merch is pretty shitty, the default corpo managed birthday packs suck and the merch is overpriced for how low quality it is, the shipping system is bullshit and they'll offer you one shipping rate and then send you a bill for hundreds of dollars extra months later if they offered the wrong shipping to begin with (happened to me), they're selling cheap china shit but hey, here I thought I was supporting the talents I loved.

The talent incurs absolutely 0 financial risk when making merch. They do not pay for the design, manufacture nor distribution of the merchandise and in the case of corpo vtubers are not even the IP owners. The only value they add to merch is advertising. Your argument that the merch is worthless without the talent assumes they own the IP to themselves. Yes, nobody would care about the merch without the talent, but equally, no one would care about the talent without the corp.

The next thing you will say is the talents don't need to stream and we should still give them money
If it's for the standard copy paste merch which has no input from the talents nor any involvement except using their characters (do I need to remind you who those IP belongs to?) there's no reason to give that much
A personalized merch is a different thing, though
Something around 70:30 or 75:25 is pretty good considering the talents use their own money to pay the costs

Still true but its purely by brand recognitions, and Hololive is catching-up super fast and they are now neck-to-neck. They have hundreds of livers, you will more likely know someone is a Nijisanji vtuber.

There is also the fact that Hololive really need to do alot more on the merchs and IRL front.

That would be all well and good, but preorders and just in time manufacturing is a thing. Considering the well known shittiness of niji merch their overheard for design is negligible. You're overstating their risk.

PriConne JP is not exactly topping charts. Its kinda on the realm Tier three in earnings, FGO Global can pass Priconne.

But that does not excuse Crunchy when YZ still able to keep all Girls Frontline and Neural Cloud server alive, with incomes way less than Priconne’s

What a fucking stupid shut in loser. Why would streamer niggers on YouTube be more valuable than creators. Streamer niggers can't even make/produce the og contents themselves, are bacically leeches. What corpo vtubers can do is either advertise/sell corpo shit or earn SCs. If you hate it but still wanna earn money then just be a solo indie streamer and make your own shit and sell it like indie musicians.

There's about a 90% chance cover corp takes about the same amount.
Idol corporations have been known to take very heavy cuts from merchandise throughout history and before people try to pull
>b-but they make the most from merch
That's because cover don't allow streamlabs, if you buy $100 superchat 30% is going to yt immediately and then from what I've heard if you buy it off of mobile (the majority of YouTube watchers are mobile btw) Then it's an additional 30% from Google/ apple.
Through superchats you lose up to 60% of your sc before the corp splits that in half with you, leaving you with 20% of the original chat.
Even if you make 2% off of merch, you're going to be selling hundreds to thousands of products, this is way more profitable than 20%. You make $600 in superchats on a stream, you get $120 before tax.
Let's say now that Calli sells 1000 t shirts, each are priced at $31, she now makes $620 off of those shirts. that's the equivalent to a single stream before cuts

I literally covered that though.
Even if you get %2 of revenue through merch, you make more than superchats because superchats have 30% that immediately goes to Google and another 30% that goes to your app store. That's 60% gone, you split that halfway and you make 20%, if you sell 1000 pieces of merch you'll make more than you would on an average stream

If you have a source of how much hololive/cover corp takes id love to see it but until then I'd assume it's pretty close to the same if not the same. Don't underestimate that the merchandise itself is sold at a massive value $20-$30 on average and a lot of fans buy that shit the second it comes out. You'll easily be selling 1k pieces of merch each round at that's a lot of fuckin money.

>> No.49047585

You're fucking retarded.
You are sitting here trying to argue about how if a month long sales period earns them enough to average ONE streams superchats, then thats great!
No retard, they aren't going to shill the way they do for a fucking grand. And as many people have already told you, most Holomem have already went on record stating they make very good money off their merch. They aren't saying that for 2% of the cut. Your black company is ripping off their talents, and here you sit trying to defend them. Cuck.

>> No.49047934

Again my friend, you have a month long sales period of merchandise + voice packs, multiple pieces of merch all sold at $20-30
If you sell 1k of a single item, and let's be real here, there's no way that you're selling less than that with how big hololive is, you're earning way more money than you ever would through superchats, even with a %2 earn rate. That's damn good money, as I said earlier, a single $600 stream only gets you $120 before taxes, 1k pieces of merch sold at $31 is $620, and that's just one item. You start looking at $620 + 420 + 420, that's 12x whatever you're making off of superchats for that stream. And you can say
>c-cuck!!!
all you want but that's good money. I'd be shocked shitless though if 1k of each merch was all that was sold

That's a lot of sales but it doesn't seem to showcase any cuts at all and I really really really really really really doubt that cover let's you keep 100% of the profits. That's still a shit ton of money though
But even with a 2% figure that adds up to over 26 thousand USD. If she gets sales like this all the time I could easily see her earning 400k a year minimum, because if you take her profit, x2% and then you multiply that 12, you get 316k annually.

To put things in perspective you'd have to earn over 8 million dollars in superchats to meet that

Again through you have to take into account how much merch she actually pushes and sells. As I said down >>49048688 mito could make a 6 figure range pretty easily while still only earning 2% also keep in mind that lamy is probably talking 6 figures of yen, not USD, unless I'm mistaken, yen is about 1¢ to the dollar.

I can usually comprehend ESL but your last sentence is throwing me for a loop. Also I've pointed out several times in this thread that there's a probable chance that 2% isnt out of the question for hololive either. If the 400k off merch sales was an annual number that's about what her sales figure reaches, give or take around 80k which could be made up for by either including voice packs or more expensive merchandise being released or simply just more sales during a few months. Or all three!

>>49049487
I'm actually just a deadbeat accountant if you wanna know the truth but Im not a stranger to how companies work and so far I haven't really seen any arguments that disprove that you can still earn a shitload of money while only making 2%, especially when the only alternative takes a 80% cut out of earnings that pale in comparison to what you'd make off of merch
