For starters, the recent controversy started with the amount of dark trouble the former virtual liver had gone through prior to moving back to being an Indie Virtual YouTuber as Dokibird. According to her, the work environment was said to be toxic and she had been ill-treated there prior to her termination. It had gotten that bad to the point that she made more than one attempt that landed herself in the hospital. The worse thing was, she wasn't paid there in the first place and had to use her personal money on the song cover. It's like she had been stopped from producing passionate stuff there. Needless to say, her fans were FURIOUS over the severe trouble she went through and despite her return to streaming under her indie identity, there were petty attempts from Anycolor to do damage control and those acts were criticized. Poor PR management? Sort of.
The official apology video from Anycolor CEO was a sheer nonsense and disastrous. It clearly showed that they devalued the virtual livers with the top priority being the investors when it came to apology. And to make certain virtual livers do the "addressing" video to the
situation as a ploy to disrupt Dokibird's passion was some last straw to
tarnish the company's reputation further. Another problem was that the private documents were sort of leaked by the company with such video posted on one of the virtual livers' YouTube channels and Dokibird was not happy about it. This could closely result in a lawsuit against the company for privacy violation although the legal battle between them and Dokibird will be no easy feat according to one of Sayu's recent livestreams. The trust is broken and difficult to rebuild at this point.
Another toxic part you can see on the internet is the amount of die-hard simps/shills of Nijisanji who keep defending the brand and organization to no end in which they dismissed whatever truth Sayu and Dokibird said as some kind of fabrication. Some shills even had the miserable audacity out of their unhinged and cringy behavior to come up with a list of anyone who ranted about the controversy, dropped support for Nijisanji, supported Dokibird, etc. Oh, let's not forget that Anycolor did a self-investigation in the same way EA & Activision Blizzard did. It's all a new low from what I knew about the controversy and I have a feeling that the drama the Nijisanji shills are prolonging isn't letting up. They will continue their malicious acts in an attention-seeking way. Man, some of the most immature nerdy behaviors might include having parasocial relationships with the corporation or some corporate entity as if the corporation was their parents or something. (Well, I'm looking at some "die-hard" Intellivision Amico shills who have parasocial relationship or some kind.) I don't care what nonsense they can spew out on social media. Surprise success from Dokibird is what catches my eyes and I already tweeted about her achievements.
As of this time, it appears that Dokibird's channel is going strong with large amount of subscribers, a Play button given to her, and the redone intro which is like one part of full Brain Power ownership rights level. What this means, many things about her when she was in Nijisanji are still hers to this day.
