Oh, right! One more thing about the sacrifices/costs of joining an agency; your content does not belong to you unless it's stated otherwise in your contract. Compile every piece of knowledge you'd like to share in this comment thread;
Even Callie's music? I knew they got a cut but also the whole copyright too!? Though I at least understand the IP of the model and likeness of the vtuber belongs to Cover. We have a direct case study of Kizuna Ai as how that works.
@@ceresbane I believe its common in every corporation that what is done by a employee in working hours belongs to the company, in Calli's music my guess would be that either she graduates but still gets a cut from music streaming OR it goes the Rushia way and it all gets nuked, OR maybe even the Coco way and it's just there, standing, menacingly.
@@Blue_Spirit7 I wonder if Coco still gets royalties. If I recall Japanese law in particular, the creator has certain privileges. The only extent I know is you need permission from a manga or book author to use the story or characters in the book. Technically no fee needed but its often agreed that you pay a fee to be given the permission. So with that in mind, surely musicians have some kinda authorial ownership of their music.
And Japanese artists have the right to give or deny permission in using their music in stuff.
Oh god yes, be sure to thoroughly study the licensing terms related to your contract. And if you intend to invest a lot of your own money (and/or your viewers'), try to negotiate/buy as much ownership as you can. The dream is to get full ownership and performance rights for the character, their video and music, and their channel.
The agency only allocates a certain budget for sponsoring the creation of their talents' original songs, animated videos, live2d and 3d models, and merchandise. Any more than that has to be funded by the talents themselves. So imagine you commisioned a bunch of talented creators and together made some amazing piece of art, but it will get deleted if your employer terminates your contract. Would you be willing to bet the farm on that?
Take a Rushia MV for example. The lyrics, vocals and music might be salvageable. The artist name would have to be re-branded on all platforms. The video is almost certainly lost, in the best case it would need to be fully re-drawn and re-rendered using a different character.
Now take Houshou Marine. Her songs are heavily tied to her character, not very portable. The Unison MV cost as much as a brand new car iirc. Her new MV costs 4 times as much. Like holy shit I hope she's not throwing that much money away on a property that she doesn't fully own and that will self-destruct under certain conditions.
@@theultramage lol I'd be too lazy personally. Big bad corpo and Moriachy nobody trying to negotiate terms when I'm not even hired yet.

Well, I have no interest in joining an agency. But this video made me admire the girls and the boys better. Keep up the great work
Im with you there. I'm not joining im just here to learn the process. But instead made me appreciate those I simp.
No videos... at least one video per week... Hm.
@@FFFan3445 there are videos, if you believe hard enough
Sameee
I honestly don't understand why anyone would want to work for an agency after watching this video. It seems far too restrictive to be worth it.
One good thing I’ve seen at least, is that unlike real-world talent agencies, they won’t ignore you in the future if you apply and they don’t think you’re ready.
If you send a demo or acting reel to a talent agency and it’s trash, they will remember your name and it’ll be difficult to get them to consider you in the future.
At least both Cover and AnyColor have said keep trying, so they understand that people can improve over time.
i think it's a very good mentality to acknowledge that people can and will improve if they really want the job. I mean what screams more passionate than be willing to improve and actually improving at something?
Yes actually, the "show yourself" Do means that we show our tenacity, perseverance to truly join.. Because i believe most people doesn't really genuinely join agency out of passion (which is normal). Afterall, a decent company, even tho they are there to make money, they still care about the employee, because good relationship with their employee can be a good thing in the long run. If the employee show that they truly willing and genuinely care for the company, it shows and the company can see it (well.. Not all of course). But of course, you need to be competent, not just passion.. But if your willpower is so strong, of course you will strive and improve
Biggest lesson of the video though, is to never look behind you when a sign tells you to.
xD
If only Avdol heed this advice.
@@thegemguy1334 At least his arms survived, that's something!
the second the camera moved from the fixed position in the intro, that scared the fuck out of me. more than even the korone
This was legit what I was thinking a few days ago lmaooo esp with all the "advice" stuff from Nijisanji livers I've been seeing in my feed recently. Loooool. It's nice to see someone thinking and talking sane over the net every now and then. ty for ur service.
0:02 You sound, strangely more happy than usual, I don’t know if feel happy or worry about it
10:10 We are more than two thirds of the video and you still sound way more happy than usual
partly because you can't give advice to applicants with a sad voice
This video feels so much high quality that before! Loving the growth in this channel
I just wanted to add that, some of the vtubers in nijisanji, either applied for fun/jokes and never considered being a vtuber, but still got in, and one of them also never had prior experience, but still got in, and is doing super well. I think the interviewers can tell if the person is entertaining enough that it is okay not to have prior experience, but it is true that a person has a higher chance of getting in, if they had/have an internet presence, or prior experience streaming online. that's all :)
I originally was going to try auditioning when auditions for Nijisanji. I knew I wouldn’t be accepted but I still thought it would be interesting to try since I was a lot more optimistic and wasn’t thinking long term. When I talked with a close family member about it, they asked a lot of the things I didn’t think about such as if I would be able to handle the stress or understanding what I might be agreeing to. Although it made me upset at the time it sort of brought my standards back down to earth as I realized I didn’t really have a clue as to what I was doing. Even if it was disappointing, it just made me want to work harder by myself and figure out if this is something I would actually want to try doing.
Entertaining, informative, humourous, inspirational.
Thank you DN for continuing to make high-quality content that deep-dives behind the scenes of VTuber culture.
On another topic, will there eventually be a thoroughly detailed 'Hitomi Chris' video? The brief explainers on wikis' and reddit don't offer too much on explaining the whole situation.
It's always great to see, how much work you put into these videos to provide proper information in high quality and quantity in a well understandable way.
Keep up the amazing work!
New thing learned: Depressed Nousagi's den is not actually underground, but in the sky
Probably would be responding with an "uuhhh" or a "hmmmm.. err" LOL
“Come on, take the jump”
I swear the god this depressed rabbit and his voice can make me do just about anything, is this called gaslighting?
"Bro depressed nousagi uploaded a vid on 'how to join v-tube agencies', you wanna watch?"
me worming my way out from under multiple cars : "yep, this might help me someday"
It is something that you mentioned in the video but something that I think needs to be stressed. When making that impression video, do not try to do something that you can’t do. If you have an amazing idea and think to yourself “if I did this in the video then there’s no way they’re not going to pick me” but have never actually done anything like it before then don’t. Not yet, anyways. You should just stick to what you’re good at. What you should do instead is write down that idea and spend the next few months or a year doing stuff related to that idea and become really good at it. Then, when it comes time to audition again, that idea you had is a part of that pool of stuff that you’re good at.
Also, if you’re already good at something, it may be better to do that instead of stepping into unknown territory and trying to make something that you’ve not done before, unless you’re willing to spend a couple months to do so. Some of your talents may not be obvious at first. If you were good at drama class back when you were at school then you may be able to use those skills to make skit comedy. Think Fairbairn Films. Something like that may be great to show off your ability to act and show what kind of a person you can be. Also, I don’t think that there’s anything in the audition requirements that says that you need to be alone in the video. So long as you make it clear that the audition is for you, not for your buddies and not for the group as a whole, then I don’t see a reason why it couldn’t work. I mean, I could be wrong but there still remains a possibility. Also, look to your passions and think hard about what it is about them that you love. Draw from them the skills that they helped you develop and find a way to apply them to streaming and being a streamer. That’s what it all comes down to. Finding a way to apply your skills, your talents, to being a streamer.
This audition is your opportunity to show off what you can do. This is your chance to be the best you that you can be.
Have always wanted to try auditioning but the one thing that stopped me (other than not having any prior experiance) was the self introduction video/audio clips
Born from a hardworking family tho, anyway i wish anyone here good luck if we are both aiming for it.
I have an advice tho, don't doubt yourself if you doubt yourself then all your hard work will most likely be useless.
Another major thing- shipping
Pretty much anyone you ever breathe the same air with will get shipped with you, even if you barely interact or are strictly friends, this could be a no-go for some people so yeah
I am saying some of the things you said on my head. But you articulated it very well, plus appropriate footage to boot.
This helps in a lot of ways, thank you for this video
"if you want to join an agency you have to be well adjusted..."
>shows Pippa footage
you're sending me mixed signals man
Exactly LMFAO
6:19 Now now, Yashiro isn't that bland you know, he's a wage slave after all
Can u explain the context bro?
why is your videos so good man, im looking forward for more
I have always wanted to be a content creator, it's a shame I've never had a good pc, nor the opportunity for certain circumstances. Hopefully, soon I'll be able to begin creating my own content, and some day audition to either Hololive or Nijisanji.
I'd LOVE to do vtubing with hololive EN or Nijisanji, My huge issue is that's not ALL i wanna do. My main goal is to pursue a career in dance since i have a knack for choreography, but since this sort of career requires my full attention, i don't see this high level of vtubing meshing with that. I'll probably do it on the side.
There are some pretty good dancers in Hololive and Nijisanji. So, it can be a possibility.
@@anari234 True true, kiara's high kick was nuts !
I appreciate this a lot 😊 my first two audition videos (holo singer and phase connect) were admittedly…. Lame. I need to work on curating my personal channel as a sort of portfolio and acquiring better hardware, but this makes it seem…. Actually doable, rather than making it feel unattainable. I know what I need to do now I just need to spend time working on it (and probably shoot for a smaller company tbh 😅)
except for the very early big agency life, aka niji or holo, where the requirement is less strict. Because vtubers in that day still wasnt sure in what form will take, the latest gen have to sacrifice something to do their activity/job.
In order for a male to join hololive
1st you have to be a female than apply for audition
0:59 look it's my, nay our bro, he made it into a video
This video not only made me suicidal but now I know for sure I want to be a vtuber. Thank you.
alright this was targeted at my first application, and I thank you gør the insight, I'm prepared to step up to the challenge
6:19 Putting the source right in the image... a God
I still think that I'd rather be an independent vtuber, but I'm interested in the application process nonetheless! And who knows, maybe one day I'll become part of Niji or Hololive too
I just click this just for entertainment, this topic is really useful tbh,the issue about your personality can affect your chance of being accepted if it suit the characters/model, you should lower your expectations so the rejection won't affect you too much and be optimistic, this reminds of of Ollie she mention she audition for gen1 but was rejected so she return for for gen2 and speaking of personality suiting the model her model really suit her and just like the unknown I can't imagine Ollie being Moona, Risu or lofi
I love your style! Subscribed
2:03 About this rules.
Reminds me about Ojou/ Nakiri Ayame who rarely stream and got special treatment.
Dunno it's about her health or something else.
They say she takes a lot of time to raise her kid/s
@@estarsinluz kids?
@@SnowVillers789 either one or two, that's what the rrtas say at least lol

1:30 is it too much to ask for more clues?
Hide yo mama
usagi new mile stone....... interactive stage....... i wish u more success usagi
maybe once I'm an adult I'll try it out, just for fun
Ngl long since accepted I'm far too social anxious to apply rn so maybe I'll get some more confidence before I apply
4:12 Third World?
From the accent,he sounds like he is from S.E.A.
Wait, I'm not sure about the not choosing how your avatar looks part. I just saw a clip of Okayu's ansiversary stream where Yago talked about how Okayu said she wants an onigiri on her shirt during the character design talks. And the onigiri is there. So you can definitely make some decisions on the design (at least in Hololive).
There are othere examples I can think of (although not officialy confirmed). Let's just say that Calli's reaper design fits too well with the themes she uses for her non-Hololive work, which I don't think is a complete coincidence. (Also, there are Noel's boobs, both in the design and the person, which I don't think it's a complete coincidence either.). So I do believe that in Hololive you can at least require certain things to be modified on some preset designs, and you might be able to request more if you have a good CV so to say.
My heart stopped when lyrica poped up shorty after someone hahahaha....
a secret requirement is to have 10 thousand followers, shows the experience in entertainment
Leave a like for this man putting us on game!
I'm not a good enough actor to try and be someone else's premade avatar so no thanks lol. Maybe custom VTuber avatars will be cheaper in the future to try out but right now it's way too expensive for someone starting out unless you can do it yourself. If you want anything that doesn't look like a basic anime girl/guy that most these agencies give out to new talents then it's going to cost more than most content creators starting out can afford.
Very insightful
I can think of one person who used their own avatar, when they first started or prior to joining, you can look at my photo and know who im talking about. Tho i think she did get new ones, from the company.
I was about to expect something about endorsement when you said "this video is sponsored by... myself" but it turns out it was only you. I burst out of laughter.
And here come Subaru.. She mention that before join Hololive, she definitely had zero knowledge about streaming and only know a few thing about game and the other stuff.. She made into Hololive with her passion only..
For the be yourself thing, it’s going to be really hard to maintain a certain personality for the rest of however long you’ll stream. It’s way better to just be yourself and not have to put in extra work by thinking about everything you’re saying.
Same could be for people who have trouble maintaining a more “vtuber” voice. (Like a particular voice for a particular trope) Although, this one could be easier than keeping up a whole personality since over some time i think you’d be used to that voice.
nice video. thanks for the guide.
Great video!
And for idiot who think you can join if you are expirienced:YOU NEED TO DO 3 STREAMS IN 1 WEEK THERES NO SUCH THING AS POTATO PC U NEED GOOD WIFI GOOD CONTENT AND GOOD HUMOR(unlike me my humor is just seeing a bread spin in the washing machine)
That isn't to say you don't have a shot at all if you don't have any prior content creation experience but man you better be a fucking natural
Well .... giving it a shot? Sure!
Having experience in that stuff (streaming, video editing stuff,etc)? Nope...
Trying anyway? Yep!
Just sayin If you put your mind on it and want to do it just try even if it takes more than one application.
F-ing everything up and being cringe as high as the heavens?
Hell yeah!
😂😂😂
So who cares just have fun applying even if it gets you nowhere
Rather not audition as a Vtuber. Rather be a character designer and illustrator. But at the moment, I'm taking a deep rest from depression. Cos I've been going through failures, rejections and other harsh things I have to face.
Keep strong and don't forget to take a rest when needed m8
2:08 GAME???? SO MY STORY WRITING SKILLS AND ART CONTENT AND ABANDONED (yet still good, im a great writer) FANFICTION USING SARCASM ABOUT MARY SUES IS USEFUL???????
this wanna make me join hololive(as a staff) more just to meet Yagoo irl
Persistence also counts. Nene famously sent in an application every two weeks for months until finally they gave her an interview.
Yup our wife tried four times. Im glad she finally made it. Despite being who she is Hololive rejected her that many times.
As illustrated by this video. You need to show visible improvement everytime. Simply spamming every 3 months will just land you in the auto block. That said 4 times and she didnt end up getting blocked. They must have wanted her but she needed to reach a certain point of competence. Thats very telling.
@@SWIFTO_SCYTHE well our wife is truly positive so, she would obviously try mher best and many times, till she could get in.
When talking about persistence, Suisei always needs to be mentioned.
Then there's Miko, who IIRC have been invited instead of auditioning, but she got abysmally low viewer count and subs for months. Like less than 10k, you can't even see that today anymore as new talents at debut approaching 100k already. But look at her today, one of the most iconic talents of Hololive.
@@yt_geezuz785 Well, that was more of the chuuba industry being small and Miko being one of the early chuubas in general. But yeah, she persisted and Cover kept trying and eventually it worked out.
Suisei is definitely the prime example tho.
Frankly speaking, this is also useful for normal jobs out there. You ought to show your skills and potential to the HR (or whoever responsible) so that YOU can get the job. Very useful indeed for everyone.
not for bottom-level jobs though, last year i walked into walmart with dirty clothes and messy hair from my other job, the manager asked me if i could carry kinda heavy things around all day, i said yeah i work(ed) in construction, and thats how i got that temp job lmao
@@goleogthais I mean yeah I am sure if you walked to mac as well you would imediatly get the job, its not like they can refuse people in this current situation, high lvl jobs are another story and those vtuber corpo def are at the top when it comes to high lvl jobs, that's why the process is long and hard
There's this one time I auditioned (lol) to a multinational company. Was fairly confident in myself that I made my CV decent enough to actually had them call me for an interview.
I botched my interview real bad because of a silly mistake. I put in my CV that I speak jp just a little bit, and what do you know? The damn CEO was there in an interview for a lowly position of a forklift operator and HE'S JAPANESE.
Was quite nervous that I couldn't even introduce myself properly.
@@goleogthais that's because businesses desperately need more employees right now
Putting aside vtuber audition things, this is how to apply any jobs based on this video:
1. Basic and common skills, i mean really basic, something that normal people (and you) do everyday, or in short, you-know-how-to-use-computer type of skill.
2. Portofolio, such as CV, certificate, or any proof that you have enough experience in the field that your job recruiter wanted from you. This is to ensure that you know what you're signed up for, and know what you're doing in your future job in general.
3. Your actual skills. Show up what's your true skills and how it will be useful in your future job. More so if you are actually talented and has achievement in it.
4. Professionalism. You're gonna have to follow some strict rules of your company once you are accepted. Show them how you are able to dedicate your time and efford to your job and follow their rules and targets.
5. Self reflection, such as your pros and cons (physical and mental health, skills, etc [do not show too much of your cons, though]), your self-goals (salary, fame, etc), and your self limits. Learn how your true self willingness to your future job before you're going to apply because once you're accepted, it would be pretty hard to leave.
(sorry for bad english and long post)
Basically, it's a job. And a really high demanding one at it. Anything relating to human interaction is going to be hella hectic af, and anyone who had work experience with retail or customer service can agree that you're not gonna please everyone. You'll be hurled the worst of humanity in your daily lives, need to touch grass to regain sanity, and be really creative on deescalating your patrons, or for content creators including vtubers, their fanbase.
And to you who thinks anyone can be a vtuber, it's true, but most of the best ones are either university art graduates or currently taking the course; either workshops or colleges. Talent can only bring you too far. It's easy to think that whatever vtubers do, is a world where 'talent' can be used. It's an artform for me... something that requires a lot of hard work, that we the viewers can only see the end product.
Love that ending remark. I'll make sure to use it in the future when talking about Vtubers.
aside from all the great advice that this video has given everyone
it also pretty much confirms that Depressed Nousagi can teleport
i will remember this, this will certainly help me as someone who wants to give this a shot. thank you :)
Well then, good luck in your future audition.
Gl wish u all the best
Goodluck!
Goodluck!
Best luck!
Worth mentioning imposter syndrome. A lot of popular VTubers say stuff like "I don't know why anybody watches me." People who are very skilled at something tend to think of themselves as worthless frauds. This happens to people in any high-skill or high-profile profession. If you feel confident about your talents, that could even be a bad sign.
Don't let imposter syndrome stop you from applying. Obviously, you still must be prepared, but you might be a lot better than you think.
it helps if you're female and your audience is mostly lonely men. you can be as boring, untalented or obnoxious as you'd like and you'll still manage to pick up a dedicated viewerbase.
if you are a woman you have half the battle won, I am not just saying it, I have seen it
@@yukimochimochikazumito2032
TBH, I always hear this trope about women, and I don't think it's actually true. Though I usually hear it with reference to dating. I see a lot of women complain about dating prospects or how a lot of men actually just wind up talking a big game and being lazy fucks who won't even put in the minimal effort to get laid or seem even at least slightly presentable or sociable.
And for V-tubing, I can absolutely see these agencies preferring women to men. But of those women they aren't going to pick anybody that they think is boring or a liability. Men may be horny, but not all of them are lonely or going to put up with bullshit. They're happy to be horny, if, and only if, the fantasy can be maintained without involving them in drama. Which is ultimately what V-tubers are selling.
But even if you did have such a low opinion of your audience that you think they're just shit-flinging chimps, you're still better off entertaining them with somebody who's good in a public-facing role.

Excellent video setting real expectations for people wanting to stream in general. The two most improtant things to take away are being prosistent and knowing you will fail but that is part of the process is. Also that it help to have both personality and skill, and while not exclusive you MUST have a personality people can latch on to and whatever you lack in skill has to have your personality shine that much brighter in order to maintain viewers.

Honestly I think that's for the best.
She would have been a great fit at hololive and paired well with Calli. However, I don't think Cover would have been very amused at her not really giving a fuck about separating the two personas or keeping one "secret".
@@nik021298 as we saw with the Rushia incident, pretty much, not to mention I think she was already hired as part of the group that hired the TT bois, so that might possibly come into conflict too. At least in vshojo the girls go at their own pace.

It's funny how a lot of advice here is stuff you can apply when applying to any job interview...and just a lot of good points and reminders.
In case there's anyone else trying to read the signs above the doors
5:17 "Enter to Begin Auditions"
13:12 "Congratulations You passed! Enter the room for the interview!"
Well, that was enligthening.
*Ability to Entertain*
I think that os exacly what I lack.
Well than.
So be IT.
What did I learn from this video? How the industry and auditions work? Tips to get in? NO!!! I learned that I have no talent, personality or anything entertaining, and will probably not get into an agency. Luckily I don’t intend to.
Well it wouldn't hurt to try if someone do intend to join. As perfect as Kronii is, not even she expect to be accepted, you are always not perfect enough for yourself, that's just human. ( at least normal humans. )

if you're female or can convincingly pass for one then the rest like actual talent, entertainment ability or personality doesn't matter. kronii & sana are the perfect examples of this. just stream regularly and some vthot company you apply to will show interest eventually.
Oh my god, u slap me right at my brain and heart :')
Good video, nice to hear this as the Vtubers in these companies likely aren’t allowed to talk about this stuff.
The scale of the Vtuber industry is getting bigger, so it might seem like being passionate and being yourself is too blissful as advice, but it is still the foundation of the audition. You have to be passionate enough to work past any limitations and guidelines of working in this company, while working on what you want to see from yourself while in this company. That’s what it means to be passionate and be yourself. Building what you want to see from this is just as important as meeting the company’s expectations.
Good luck to anyone auditioning!
I was thinking if I really have what it takes to be a vtuber until I watched this video and I decided not to pursue it. Mainly because I think it's not for me. However, this video made me admire more of my oshis and vtubers in general.
People forget the time and effort needed just to do a proper application
Agency vtuber at least, but anyone can still be a vtuber on their own or join smaller agencies, there aren’t really many concrete requirements to be one. This video is about joining those big established agencies and their general process
But yes glory to our oshis and their steadfast perseverance!
i feel the same! but instead of being discouraged i feel like i want to push myself and improve

This is why I hate the EN community constantly saying "they're just playing a character bro."
Not only does it act as some sort of excuse for them to do really weird things with the "characters" (let's look at Peko and Miko or KSON and Kanata), but it shows that they don't realize that most of the chuubas are just being themselves, mostly. And that disconnect leads to some really disgusting things that the EN community refuses to admit.
Like, EVERY entertainer puts on a facade of some kind... but they're not playing some scripted character. They're just playing up certain things because it's about ENTERTAINMENT. But they're not actors.
Another reason why I hate people calling them "voice actress" instead of "roommate". VA makes it sound like they're playing a character, when roommate properly acknowledges their personal life separate from their streaming life but that their streaming self is still, usually, mostly their real self.
