Former Nijisanji member reveals \u201ctipping point\u201d that made her quit VShojoFormer Nijisanji member Mika Melatika has revealed why she left the VTuber agency, stating two main reasons for her graduation. Now streaming on Twitch as Michi Mochievee, the VShojo star told a story about her past in Nijisanji, in which the VTuber claimed to have been warned after joking about taking her YouTube Play Button home while on a tour of the agency\u2019s office. Using the fake alias \u2018Bethany\u2019 for legal reasons, Michi claimed, \u201cBethany made a joke saying shhh, yoink and laughed about it,\u201d as she gestured to grab the Play Button before following, \u201cthen Bethany got scolded for making a distasteful joke.\u201d The Nijisanji staff allegedly threatened to kick her out of the office for making the joke, reaffirming, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to understand, we can\u2019t have that happen here,\u201d as paraphrased by Michi, even after she insisted it was just a harmless joke. Confused by the reaction, she expressed, \u201cConsidering Bethany worked in the entertainment industry, Bethany thought people would take jokes easily and not think Bethany was actually a thief.\u201d This series of events made her feel \u201cvery bad\u201d and \u201cvery weird,\u201d as she now believed the Nijisanji staff genuinely thought Michi was a criminal who intended to steal from the company. She also claimed they wouldn\u2019t let her take a picture of the Play Button for privacy reasons, further emphasizing the distrust. Michi described this and prior issues with how Nijisanji\u2019s alleged handling of her finances forced her to pay back two years of unpaid tax as the\u201dtipping point\u201d and \u201cstraw that broke the camel\u2019s back,\u201d eventually leading to her graduation in October 2023. She isn\u2019t the only former talent to claim Nijisanji caused them serious tax issues either, with K9Kuro previously revealing he amassed a \u00a3350,000 debt while streaming as Mysta Rias before later joining VShojo. There has been a theory for some time that Nijisanji does not allow its talents to own their YouTube Play Buttons. While the reasons for this are unclear, Claude Clawmark previously dismissed these rumors and insisted members can \u201cjust f**king ask\u201d if they want one, but this doesn\u2019t align with what any former talents have claimed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
