    Fat F for AmeSame

    I literally have not gotten around to watching her debut yet, so you could say I’m a bit behind even though I’ve watched plenty of her streams over the years.

    The fact that it’s not a “real” graduation (while also not going to staff) seems to imply she might come back for special events or something? As much of a bummer as this is, that’s what has me most curious:

      Yes, that’s what it seems like. Calli’s last stream also seems to imply we’ll “understand more” in the next days, but maybe that’s just me inhaling too much concoction copium.

      At least we still have https://watsonamelia.com/

      Thanks, I needed this :’)

    Fuck. I haven’t been prepared for a Myth member leaving, I thought they were gonna be in it for a few more years.

    Ame’s done so much for not just Hololive but VTubers as a whole and she will be missed greatly. Although it does say she will remain an affiliate of Hololive, I think a remember a clip ages ago saying about her joining as a staff member after she finished her activities so maybe that is what has happened?

    It doesn’t say graduation or termination though so somethings definitely different about this.

      Yagoo’s tweet doesn’t really explain much, it doesn’t seem like she’s currently joining the staff, but he’s looking forward to working with her again (?)

      I wonder whether this eventually is going to result in some sort of spinoff project, otherwise why not a) officially graduate her with full sendoff like they did with Coco, or b) announce an indefinite hiatus, which has precendent in other vtuber orgs. It seems like she’s not joining Hololive Staff, so this whole “affiliate” thing seems like she’s getting some sort of role change that would land her outside of the current hololive management structure…interesting stuff

    While this is a sad announcement it’s also kind of understandable? I’m not exactly sure why I feel like this but my first thought wasn’t “oh no, how can this be?!” but rather, “yeah, makes sense”. Perhaps someone can help me figure it out properly.

    Ame always felt to me like someone who’ll stick with streaming as long as she has new ideas she wants to realize but won’t try to force it just for the sake of staying relevant. I dunno, my mind is not awake enough for this. It’s a hell of a surprise to wake up to, that’s for sure.

    AMEEEEEEE! 😭

    Though her channel activities will end, Watson Amelia will remain an affiliate of hololive production moving forward.

    Is this corporate speech for sayings she’s moving from streamer to staff?

    Man, this hurts. The reason why it’s “technically not a graduation” and she “will remain an affiliate” are not that clear, but I hope she has a bright future ahead. She deserves it.
