- The limited edition set of the Korone x Kunio-kun collab merch sells out WHILE Korone retweeting the store link.
Just as an FYI, River City Ransom/Girls is from the Kunio-kun series.
Dunno how to tell you this Korone, nobody's cancelling those limited edition orders with your handwritten autograph.

“Sometimes it happens, right? People cancel…”
Koronesuki: _Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope._
Dunno about that but people 𝘨𝘦𝘵 cancelled quite often that's for sure.
Korone: "I made a lot, so it should be okay!"
1.86 million Koronesukis: "You underestimate our power."
Probably more that aren’t subbed
It is rather difficult to judge merch though. When you have 1.86 million people how many are going to buy somethings? 50,000? 100,000? 500,000? if you over order you are left with way way way too much stock to store and if you order too less not everyone gets something.
Which is why pre-orders are probably the best way to go instead of a launch. If you want it to be limited just have it up for a day and then make the amount sold + some extra in case of damages/exchanges/future sales.
Korone: We got new merch
*one millisecond later*
Koronesuki: What merchandise?
korone : "the website should be opened by now, let me retweet this"
also korone : "nvm, it's already sold out"
Ah… HoloLive continues the nearly _instant_ selling out of limited signed merchandise sets. I wonders what the purchase limit on these ones was.
Thousands. One of the talents showed a picture before of a stack of cards they needed to sign. There were 3 of them.
Luckily it was one per person and if you ordered more than one they canceled your order. Wish they would have done the same for Gura's birthday merch.
@@venkaramon if not mistaken they can set how many they wanna sign, so I don’t think thousand is the correct number korone going to sign 🤔
@@venkaramon I think what was meant was a reference to how the other day with Mumei's birthday, people were able to buy up to 5 sets of the limited signed merch, which also sold out almost instantly. A purchase limit of 1 would give more people a hope of getting the hand signed sets when they go on sale.
I wish everything like this had a purchase limit of one, especially when it comes to anything gaming related. Doing anything else just guarantees the scalpers will make the real profit.
Me: man I really want the merch but I can't right now..
Korone: I've prepared a whole lot of those, there's no rush!
"Sold out"
Me: I've Been Tricked, I've Been Backstabbed and I've Been, Quite Possibly, Bamboozled
Youve been outplayed, sir...
@@jesuscornstorm737 I've been speckledorfed!
Korone x Kunio-kun merch?? Of course it sold out IMMEDIATELY. If I even knew it existed I would have crashed the site myself.
it was 1 min battle royale
Wait for 3 weeks and some mf will sell them 3x the price.
Something's fishy. How did all those Koronesuki order it that quickly without their yubi to click the button?
Nose, toes and other extremities
@@user-ge8yn4ql4i sounds like a great album name
@@user-ge8yn4ql4i bold of you to assume Koronesuki haven't offered their toes to Korone...

We have tongues thank you very much
1603: the most influential Japanese person is Tokugawa Ieyasu, ending the Sengoku Period and uniting the nation under one banner of the shogunate
2022: The most influential Japanese person is a funny dog girl
Truly a proud nation.
You're damn right she is!
Seems like a bit of a stretch even in Hololive specifically.
Best timeline achieved.
Evolution at its finest.
"I mean, if you have 4 people in your family, then you'll need 4 of these, right?"
People who buy 5 for their doggod pentagram shrine: 👀"Ah, yes.. family..."
Korone seems to be having a lot o collabs, Sonic, Yokai-Watch, Kunio-Kun now, really cool indeed, I hope they add her to River City Ramson or some mad lad would make a Hololive Beat-em Up.
Funny thing is that even though Korone is one of the "gamer" part of hololive, the games she plays, and probably Okayu, are the outdated ones like 2000s or even 90s games. BUT they are still very much well received.
Bich even assasins creed send gift to her and Doom make an easter egg called DOOG for korone(but it was removed).
Well, at the very least I hope those went to fans and not scalpers. Mumei's handwritten birthday set sold out insanely fast as well. Maybe I'm off-base here, but I think people might be eager to get their oshi's handwritten autograph lol
Yes the issue with Mumei's merch was that people could buy 5 sets, which led to the scalpers probably taking a big chunk of it
Makes me really happy I love Hololive Indonesia more than the other branches. They're the only ones so far from what I can tell that do unlimited hand signed
@@kuroziploc hand signed in the end is a time issue, because you know the talent has to actually sign it by hand. So limits on that are very understandable.
At this point just gotta add a short little test of fan knowledge to any limited item that gets released with the item to avoid answers being learned ahead of time (I dunno, is this too crazy?)
Hah. Good one. Scalpers use bots so..
It's good to hear that they are aware of scalpers/resellers and such. Otherwise I would've assumed that someone just bought 1000 of them. I'm happy that so many people support Korone, because she's such a gem! ^^
I'm sure their are scalpers which is where the community started to say that it's all scalpers or barely any "true" fans have a chance but in reality it's just people who have everything saved in the website or in chrome (like myself) who can order things very quickly. Hololive members severely underestimate their popularity and idk why the company makes the limited and the normal set the same since the talent probably spent a couple hours signing and straining their wrists
@@iDeLaYeD_o They make the sets the same so people who can't get the limited edition don't feel left out too much.
I wonder if we will see bigger inventories of autographed merch going forward though because of how successful they have been. At the same time, I don't expect members will want to spend a whole lot more time autographing merch than they already do.
@@iDeLaYeD_o Just look at ebay JP.
I remembered Ayame's signed merch, it already sold out when she announced it lol
*Holomems announce shit*
Store: Aaaaand its gone.
th-cam.com/video/_nVk25ZvTkU/w-d-xo.html
Korone: One size fits all.
Most Americans: BULLSHIT!
*walks alway while playing Play Dice! on AirPods*
rest of the world: Don't blame us for you lot being gluttons...
Its not our fault its the foods fault they do stuff to it
@@DanielGonzalez-vo5ni Yea they cook it. But the shoveling it in your mouth part is on you.
@@Jaml321 more savage than american society lmao
Korone: There IS a limited number, but no need to worry!
Chat: So that was a fucking lie.
Korone: there are plenty of them, no need to rush
Koronesuki: ohhh so you are underestimating our power...
Scalpers: ohhh so you are underestimating our power...
(FTFY)
Never underestimate the fan base and collectors
And scalpers

And scalpers
And scalpers.
And scalpers
Korone mentioned in July about goods with hand written autographs in August, so I guess Koronesukis were prepared for the battle. The surprise was that she announced this Friday singing stream+announcement on Thursday and I didn't think the goods would be sold right then and there at the announcement. 🤣 So I was out drinking with my ex-colleagues that night. Around 9:04pm JST, I happened to peek at my phone and saw her talking about goods, put on my earphones and she mentioned the limited version was sold out. I was like WHAT??! went to look at the video's description, no hololiveshop link, opened browser to go directly to hololiveshop, saw the item sold out, scrolled to geekjack link, luckily it was still on geekjack until at least 9:07pm when I completed the purchase. I think Korone's team forgot that hololiveshop ships internationally to a lot of countries now and allocated too many quantities at geekjack & too little at hololiveshop. The cancel system is a booth thing, where JP people have an option to pay within 7(?) days at a convenient store, and some ppl didn't go pay in time. The limited quantity item would be released around 10am JST the next morning. This is not applicable to hololiveshop as they don't allow this for limited quantity items.
Wow so it only sold out in 7 minutes...
I'm not business person or a salesperson but that still sounds kind of fast to me...
.
@@sidharthkm5030 Yeah, it's pretty fast. The limited hand-signed autograph version was sold out, but the normal full set with duplicated autograph is still available for pre-order. These kind of Hololive/Nijisanji etc anniversary/bday/special collab goods are all made-to-order with 5-6 months lead time, so they're never sold out during the pre-order period. Just that Korone and her manager allocated a fixed number, say 500 to sign, since she has other things to do.
@@qfeuille3 500 hand signed merch? Damn. I hope our doggo doesn't overwork herself(she does, but hopefully not in the future)
Korone: ah yes years of simping for kunio kun finally paid off
"BARF!"
Just a heads up, the one thats sold out is the limited edition with the signed card, the merch set is still available w/o the signed card and is made to pre-order 😉
Korone and Kunio kun? All my favorite things are coming together. If she did a Kirby and Dragon Quest collab I'd probably die.
And god I want that keychain...
cute korone. how interesting, for me to hear about hololive limited-edition goods selling out in mere minutes. great job, chat. great job.
I learned one thing from the last few merch releases: if you want some merch you have to curb expectations and get it as soon as you can.
I don't blame them at all for buying ASAP. The Korone with brass knuckles alone is worth the price 😂
With most popular members this happens, the only case of it not happening was Aki (aka best Holomem you don't know about) and that only lasted until Aki reminded her fans. (It was also in the early days of the holostore shipping to the west)
they underestimated the selling power of cuteness
My Koone popup parade fig came in today so I'm super satisfied for now :)
But I guess from now on you pretty much have to be there at the announcement to make a snap decision if you want the merch.
"All right, now let me just ... aaaand it's gone!"
The real merch starts now! No one can stop us now!
I'm waiting to order along with the others. But I got her autograph from Geek Jack.
It's gone very quickly.
Kaigainikis be like : welp, it is what it is.
I really like that "korone as a character in a kunio kun game" key chain.
0:43 love the ﾔﾝﾉｶﾃﾒｴｵﾗﾖ
Me: (reads the video title to my husband)
Husband: Risu! No!!!
If she managed to get one, we will hear about it for sure :D
Poor Risu lol
Korone IS the most popular doggo after all. I would have bought if I could have dangit.
How on earth do they still underestimate merch numbers this far in to hololive's existence
It's limited for a reason
@@unownnnn limiting drives demand, but this is too limited.
I hope Risu is the one who bought it, otherwise she will be very salty...
Hololive: so how many are you going to buy again?
Fans: Yes
"there's no need to rush"
Anyone further than 2 ft away from their wallet: _I have failed_
Koronesukis: "I am speed"
That merch selled faster than Pokemon new releases
Koronesukis are a force to be reckoned with. Crazy, haha
That’s cute. A kunio-kun/korone collab sounds awesome
I'm so stoked to get the 3rd anniversary merch. My shaker cups are in dire need of dog-themed replacement.
The fans are wild and it's nice to see the support. Same happened with Mumei too
"no need to rush"
*everyone rushes*
i'd rather be lining up at 4am just to get some merch 😭
Bro I couldn't even load the page when she announced it.
*D.O.G. Tries It™: Bugged Scalping Prevention Mechanics (River City Edition)*
"So, we made merc-"
*"TAKE ALL MY MONEY"*
Koronesuki never fails to impress
This reminds me of an anime that had a bunch of androids, with one of them basically being able to control the trends of the general populous because of their likeability and looks. Not only merch but anytime literally any of the girls talks about a product, it gets sold out immediately.
Now that's one hell of a merch sale
"limited edition" and "we've made enough" are two things that will never go together ^^
I'm happy it sold so quickly
Figure that was going to happen lol when your fan base gets to a certain point of a loyal you just kind of expect things to disappear when you put them up for sale.
Here's some Cloud joke

I never thought I would see the Kunio-kun series of games crossover with Korone, but here we are lol.
The site held out despite being bum rushed like that. They're used to this, lol.
That's why I was worried when Korone brought out her mousepad. And apparently that worry was well-founded.
The last time I saw merch sell out this fast was Critical Roles first shirt, hot damn.
Why I am not surprised…..
"Hi there! I'm here to promote my new merchandi....aaaaaaaaaaand it's gone"
I'm more surprised the site hosting this stuff didn't crash
how silly that itwent out faster than a blink
but at least the design could have filled up more space on the shirt...
We weren't even rushing
Hopefully it wasn't just a bunch of scalpers...
Damn I love the kunio-kun franchise, I can't believe I missed out on this...
Give me a spare guys
- Risu, probably
Man, things like these make me really want to know what quantities we are talking about.
I have a few doubts on this and none of them are about Korone's ability to instantly sell out merch.
How tf did people even order that fast lol, did they do a fucking frame perfect maneuver to go to the site, had their credit card number ready to be pasted for payment, and practiced the ui of the website to perfectly place their cursor on the buttons lol
What I can say now: thank you 🙏
And I love her.
We need koronegachi, an ascended state of koronesuki
Poor girl couldn’t even retweet it in time
Okay. So I work at a gadget store. We had an online pre-order for the PS5. The site would only go online once pre-order begins. And it also took less than a minute to go Sold Out. People were supposed to fill up forms before submitting their order. And that happened anyway. Maybe some scalpers use bots to auto-fill their forms.
And now the PS5 is being sold here by scalpers for 150%-200% the original price, sometimes even more. Stores in malls are still out of stock until today.
Same thing happened with Mumei on her birthday. I think the girls and the company underestimate just how popular they are.
I'd believe this video even if I didn't watch it.
But I still watched it lmao
I'm actually impressed at the website not crashing after getting slammed like that.
I'm not shocked she's best doggo after all
At this point it's not even surprising when Hololive stuff sells out instantly. That's why I'm glad they've started doing preorders on some items
I think they should had prepared at least 3x the quantity she predicted.
I like how whenever a limited edition set with an autograph is mentioned (Mumei's birthday) it just vanishes in a flash.
Yeah... This happens too much sometimes and unfortunately some of those sales are from scalpers reselling the items for twice the original price.
She underestimated the demand
Wow Korone able to collab with Kunio-kun? Maybe she's part of Sukeban now xD
*"There's limited number"*
Koronesuki : *"It's war then!"*
I wonder if someone is buying a lot of them and then selling them at higher price after it ended.
Unlikely. The main items are not limited. The only thing limited is Korone's autograph.
Yeah, sure there are, it was a tradition :)
@@Kougeru the hand written autograph alone can sell way more expensive then the merch set. You can still found in some website, they sell it alone like 6 digit :(
If they sold that fast, there's probably a lot of people using some bots or script or whatever in order to instantly make purchases. The people who do that are generally scalpers. Out of curiosity I just checked ebay, and there's sales for signed Hololive cards with starting prices going for as high as $1,500. I feel sorry for all the fans who would genuinely love to have something like that, when it's getting snatched up for the scalpers.
Handwritten stuff is always sold out instant
Doog marketing is very powerful.
Bestest doggo
Impressively fast, given the fact that the Koronesukis don't have fingers...
Damn.
A "one size fits all" shirt?
Only in Japan. :)
She couldn't even open the link fast enough.
She underestimated the passion of the Koronesukis.
When that Otaku takes out a Yakuza loan to monopolize all the idol merch.
Korone's signed merch sold out instantly? Surprising!
I think the real question to ask, were most of the people who bought it her fans, or fans of Kunio-Kun?
Even realer question, how many of the people who bought it are planning to turn around and resell the stuff at massively marked up prices, as with the majority of people who buy video game merchandise these days?
To sold out in one minute, it's obvious bot were used. Mostly bought by reseller, I would guess.
@@Ryzen776 Yeah, exactly what I was thinking, it had to be bots or a script or whatever people use to do that stuff. I'm thinking it's probably western scalpers, they're the only ones who use that stuff. I was curious and checked for signed Hololive cards on ebay, there were tons, some with a starting bid for literally thousands of dollars. People like this love ruining our hobbies for some stupid get rich quick scheme. Video games are the worst example, because it becomes unaffordable after a while, I've heard even PS3 games are now starting to feel the effects of people buying up old copies so they can turn around and sell them for a 300% markup.
@nai 33 yeah I agree. At first I thought it was just the holo fanbase being themselves when mumeis merch sold out quickly but now it does seem like scalpers since it happened again(also happened with gura but i shrugged that off being as its gura). I seen someone suggesting an idea of basic knowledge quiz for each girl along with a limit. Maybe for korone it could be something related to her like what is her avatar or what does yubi mean along with a limit of idk 1 or 2.
@@Kainoa_25 It sounds silly but it seems like it would work, I don't anyone who doesn't know basic stuff about something would be in a rush to buy merchandise for it. But I don't think companies really care as long as they make money either way. Even with game consoles, they still don't care. Sony has plenty of reason to want an actual player to buy a PS5 so they can also buy games for it, instead of having it sit in some reseller's moldy storage locker for months, but they still don't care.
@@nai3346 Still, randomized questionary in both English and Japanese should prevent bots from answering easily immediately.
would give real people something like half an hour or so before the guys reconfigure the bots?
Probably scalped. Considering subaru found her anniversary merch being sold at some random spot in akihabara, I wouldn't be surprised if other places like that snipe as many limited edition merch copies as they can to sell at higher values themselves. (Unless that's illegal, in which case it's probably just gonna be sold on ebay or the JP equivalent thereof)
You're laughing manager? You're laughing?
My fan's can't buy any more of my merchandise because it's sold out, and you're laughing manager kun?
Definitely someone is buying up
