Well, it looks like maybe Nijisanji Auditions are back and this time they
have forms for both male and female vtubers.
Let's talk about that.
I'll admit I didn't think they'd get started on the next wave so soon,
but this does show that they have a large amount of faith in the
success of the EN sphere.
It's only been about six months since the first auditions closed and
only a month since we've won debuted and they've already teased a
image of the next four vtubers does Nijisanji just know something
that the rest of us don't or are they really ready to move this
quickly in any case?
Let's talk about what we've seen from wave one and
what you could potentially do as your job if you got accepted
The three current members are Elira Pandora, Pomu Rainpuff and Finana Ryugu
So far.
All of their content has followed a similar guideline
They all stream at least 3 times a week though the length does seem to vary quite a bit
based on the content and they have all posted some form of
Youtube Shorts. This all seems to comply with what the audition forms, states as
requirements, though what I do find it.
Very interesting is that only the main Nijisanji channel
posts, any form of highlight content and none of them
have as of yet posed to any sort of longer-form vod content which
include highlights unique videos or anything like that.
That also seem to be pretty consistent with what happened on
Hololive channels with the exception of the occasional music videos,
From this we can infer that your primary job is to stream.
Though seems like being able to sing is a very big bonus this can and
probably will change with time, but that's just how things going to be
for now with all this information out of the way, what that's the big
question should you be applying for Nijisanji?
Let's go over what
I consider the three major benefit and three major drawbacks to
working for a company like that.
Let's start off on the positive note, shall we number one, you get a
large corporation backing, you your model Channel art and all that are going
to be taken care of and everything you need is going to be polished
to a level that many indue vtubers could only dream of you have a
support staff to help guide you through the streaming landscape and
other Well-established streamers, who you could reach out to for help
because you're all part of the Nijisanji Team.
Number two, you have an already-established band face.
By simply existing as a Nijisanji streamer.
You have an audience already built in.
Now, this isn't to say that you can't or wouldn't grow as a streamer
in your own right, but you get to start far more head than someone who
is doing it by themselves.
Lastly, number 3, this is a great learning opportunity.
You'll be working with some people who have been in the industry for
quite some time and will likely have very useful information to pass
off on to you.
You don't have to figure out everything by yourself and instead you get to
have a little bit of a safety net to rely on.
Now, these three points are extremely appetizing to anyone and are
great reasons to try out for Nijisanji I'd be lying
If I said, I wasn't pretty tempted myself and I actually did apply
when the first round of auditions came out, but before you make your
decision, let's move on to some of the negatives.
Number one
You're content and model image property of Nijisanji
If you decide to leave the company your model and videos, stay with
them.
And in most cases they'll be private.
or just outright deleted.
There's isn't a whole lot talked about what happens to those who graduate or
leave, but this is a little concerning.
If you think you might want to become an independent later on.
Number two, you may be restricting creatively to ensure you fit within
their guidelines.
You do seem to have a lot of freedom when it comes to deciding what
content you can create.
But at the end of the day, you still do have to answer to management
which means that more risky subjects streams, or games might be off
the table.
We've seen relatively few instances of this overtime, but it's still
something to consider number three, you probably have a bigger fan
base than normal which means you start with that level of pressure
immediately.
You also aren't a small streamer doing this for fun.
You're now a corporate streamer
Who is supposed to be making the company as well as yourself money.
It's one thing to fail when you're just an indie streamer, it means
another.
If you fail in your part of a company with these benefits and
drawbacks.
What do you think you should do?
I will personally not be applying doing part to the negative as I
stated before but I've also found my footing as a video content
creator which is something nijisanji doesn't really seem to be looking for.
However, if you think he's benefits far, outweigh the negative.
This is a great opportunity to work with one of the biggest and best
vtubing companies out there.
So if you decide that you want to apply, check out my friend shouyu hikaru
