A Vtuber exiting an agency, going independent, and keeping their model, name, and character is not the industry standard. Most agencies own the rights to their talents’ IPs forcing creators to start over if they want to or are forced to leave.

Reacting to the news on Twitter,Veibae confirmedher intention of going independent: “No I am not joining OTK. I’m staying indie, read less 4Chan.”

Several VShojo members reached out to show support with Kson insisting they would remain “friends forever,” and Zentreya believing they’ll both go on to do “amazing things.”
