Hololive and NIJISANJI join forces to stop VTuber \u201cslander and defamation\u201d NIJISANJI \/ HololiveVTuber agency giants Hololive and NIJISANJI have joined forces to tackle \u201cslander and defamation\u201d in the community. The two companies gave a statement in unity, thanking fans for supporting their content while also outlining how they\u2019ll stop harassment. Hololive and NIJISANJI are VTubing\u2019s two biggest agencies. The Japanese groups are home to nearly 300 talents between them, all of them being viral hits in their own rights. While they\u2019ve collaborated before on the screen, the two companies behind them \u2014 Cover Corp and ANYCOLOR \u2014 are joining forces off it to try and combat \u201cslander and defamation\u201d against their respective talents. In a joint statement on December 5, both agencies thanked fans for \u201cenjoying the various content that we provide. \u201cHowever, on the other hand, we condemn the fact that the reputation or trust of virtual livers and talents that are affiliated with our companies are being unnecessarily tarnished, and we truly regret that acts of defamation and the like are being committed by certain individuals with the intention of unjustly interfering with VTuber activities.\u201d The two have historically gone alone on the issue, supporting their respective companies only. By joining forces, Cover Corp and ANYCOLOR \u201cintend to go even further by cooperating with other companies in accordance with the circumstances and matters at hand.\u201d This includes cracking down on defamation, privacy infringement, trolling on social media, and stalking in real life. \u201cWe will be sharing know-how to execute countermeasures,\u2026 which includes taking legal action, and structuring a system where we can work together with the police and other companies.\u201d Both Hololive and NIJISANJI have already been cooperating for months, revealing they have taken down a number of \u201csummary sites that we have determined to have posted information that tarnished the reputation or trust of our affiliated virtual livers and talents.\u201d NIJISANJI\u2019s task force dedicated to stamping out harassment has dealt with dozens of cases since its inception in September 2021, while Hololive has also been known to deal with unruly comments behind closed doors. It comes after NIJISANJI VTuber Axia Krone graduated last week due to harassment he faced from both passionate fans and his detractors, while Hololive\u2019s Laplus Darkness is taking an extended break for mental health reasons. Both companies are hoping to avoid such instances in the future, so VTubing can be safer for all. \u201cBy the two companies working together this time around and going forward to carry out various countermeasures, we have taken a great step forward toward creating an environment where affiliated virtual livers and talents can comfortably engage in their activities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
