He broke off his contract with COVER due to something.

I heard an artist was doing that I had no idea it was this legend. Did details of what went down ever come out?

This is just some hearsay and some shedding from his deleted twitter and others that i gathered about his breakup with Cover
- He was contracted to do official manga for Hololive Alternative, and was told to refrain from doing any R18 work of Hololive members (I think that's some kinda norm in this business...You don't see any R18 of SnSouma, Hololive's Reine or Mamako, Valkyria Chronicles from Tosh, Iida Pochi and Raita, respectively, right? Because it could be considered 'official'). He kinda irked by this.

- Then, after seeing the great reception to Hololive Alternative, he asked for a raise, but rejected by Cover (IMO - It's just started, he should've wait and see the reception to see if it's a success, THEN ask for a raise, if it's possible). He then broke the contract with Cover.

-However, he did the unimaginable - "throwing tantrum" about Cover on Twitter and, of all places, Bilibili. Because of that, he got the heat from JP bros because he was considered 'greedy for those CCP money' and 'bringing harm to Marine akin to Coco'.

The Bilibili part, if what I read was correct, was not from him but instead from a manager of his or something but the way it was worded caused enough of a drama that he (the guy managing his Bilibili announcement) was reprimanded since he was also spreading misinformation.

The artist himself explicitly stated that it was not the fault of any Hololive members and asked people to not involved them. He deleted his tweet already noting that it wasn’t the right thing to do, causing such drama although it’s already kinda out there. Its why we gotta be more careful stirring up unwanted conflict, although he was in his every right to speak out against anything that he might view as unjust treatment but it was still pretty unprofessional, if you ask me. These things usually get you blacklisted from other companies though cause nobody wants to deal with someone who might go apeshit and stir up unwanted drama if and when things go south.

That's really terrible news I would have hope someone who was working with Hololive before would try to keep the drama at least contained even if it is just to Twitter but then why go to bilibili to spread rumor? That would just stir up and already any volatile situation was the manager trying to get antis on their side or is an anti? I just hope it does not get any more troublesome or cause any lasting damage to either party

I agree with KowaiTeitoku should have waited for the reception of the actual work first I mean if you already have a contract finish first before demanding changes.

From the bits I heard, it would be more of just bad translation through Bilibili than deliberate malice but hard to tell. Like I said, its just what I read while digging around but it could be wrong too since the Bilibili announcements and whatnot was taken down after what happened because it was causing a stir or something.

As of now, everything is still speculation and why or what happen, outside of what the artist said of not having a good experience with Cover and its management, nobody knows.

Guess we just have to wait and see if there is an announcement from either side, thanks for the updates

Goddamnit. Never a month without a storm in Hololand.

The price of success is this.

I'm hoping that this kind of thing won't make other companies disheartened to work with R18 artist.

Now that i think about it, Urushihara Satoshi seems to be an exception to this (You can find both SFW and NSFW version of his Langrisser, Growlansser etc characters by him).

Why would Cover Corp be disheartened when they has a cordial relationship with R-18 artists for years now.
AFAIK Hagure Yuuki, Akasaai, and Yasuyuki are a R-18 artists and sold R-18 artworks of their daughters Pekora ,Marine and Rushia respectively.

None of them draw any Hololive related R-18 arts actually. Yasuyuki and Gaou pushed the line a bit but none are explicit.

yeah! and i read Aqua asked Gaou to not increase her bust more, since her 3rd outfit has her bust size increased a little than her 1st outfit in comparation. Still somewhat a little smaller than her sister (TenTen). Reason why i think Gaou probably try to didn't negligent Aqua's desing either ..... BUT found in the end of Aqua requesting to don't do that.
