      A simple deductive/inductive reasoning is all we need to assume that atleast some of the things said against Niji are likely to be true or true without a doubt.
      Like how in the employment contract's clause for penalty. Since talents that say something bad, usually goes on break afterwards for 2 weeks (usually)
      or the clause that Niji has no obligation to help the talent. (Talent has to pay for your setups, Talent had to provide their own legal and moderation, and the rumor that talent has to pay for their debut and artists)
      These two alone has too much relevant data, that using deductive and inductive reasoning... We can pretty much say they are true at this point.

    This contract sheds light on the behavior of some Niji talents about what happened. Literally, if they said something that the company considered "not appropriate", their income went out the window. It also clarifies a lot about what happened with Doki and how she had to endure months there even if she wanted to leave, literally one is trapped by that contract. Some defend the company by saying that the leaked contract is just a basis and can be modified, but if the basis is a literal slavery contract, that says a lot about how Niji operates. The truth is that I feel that many of the talents who criticized Doki only did so under threat, it is not known who is really honest when saying something "bad" under the company's criteria (basically anything applies) leaves them without support, payment, etc

    As I have been saying, a lot of the companies that are spoken highly of by the talents are companies that place an emphasis on talent-management communication. Sakana has streamed with his talents multiple times, he has pulled practical jokes on phase connect talents, and the talents have been comfortable with talking to him, and even ribbing on him, as one would do with a good friend. I have heard similar interactions with management and talents in Idol and VShojo as well. Not that I can really speak from experience, but as a casual viewer, it seems pretty evident that agencies that prioritize interaction and communication with their talents are typically some of the best rated agencies.

    Yeah a lot of the 'you have to provide us with certain information' stuff is preemptive file padding. Its one of those things that can theoretically be a good idea, as a way to deal with bad employees so if they start saying something about an unjust firing you can pull out a folder and drop it on the desk, but its also one of those things that is massively used by shady or exploitative companies.
    A lot of US companies do something similar (again, just in reference to file padding) even if you don't sign a contract by having a massive list of rules in the company guidelines that no one follows but can be brought out to defend basically any firing.

      @ProjektBurn 6 місяців тому

      Oh, definitely. As it's worded, "anything" means just that. As long as it's associated with the model in any way or fashion, then as far as Niji is concerned, it's their property. If she did urm..... play, but no one knew, then it's hers as the person behind the model and not Niji's. But the second anyone brings it up and she says or expresses anything that confirms its existence, then since its now part of the story that is the vtuber, it becomes their property.
      Quite honestly, it's evil as fuck.
      They made sure to leave the wording just vague enough to cover anything their models do, including intellectual actions. Example, say fan-based hearsay starts rumoring its way around the interwebs. The moment that the vtuber engages with it is the moment it becomes part of the canon of that vtuber amd by proxy of that engagement, makes the interaction with and everything going forward that's a result of the engagement also part of the vtuber entity's canon, thus making it property of Niji as far as Niji is concerned.
      Again I say, it's evil as fuck.

    Re: non-compete: I get the validity of a non-compete, but 6 months is really bad. 30 days is the norm in Japan and you're supposed to get paid during that. A non-compete that extends into time when they're not paying you and haven't given you some sort of severance is impeding your livelihood. I did research on this specifically and I believe it would be unlikely to stand up in Japanese court as most of the 5 factors used in determining the validity of a non-compete are very much not in Nijisanji's favor. Per JP law, companies need to make clear why the fuck they need a non-compete, and there are five determining factors generally considered in court:
    1. Nature, specificity, validity and depth of the proprietary information/trade secrets that the employee has access to.
    This one is iffy. A liver may know a few minor trade secrets, like aspects of their app and perhaps some future plans, but they're not things that will significantly affect the company like say, internal financial info that might damage their stock. I think 30 days is sufficient here.
    2. The position and seniority of the employee in question.
    Livers have no seniority by definition unless they happen to also be a manager. This should contribute zero percent towards any non-compete.
    3. Regional scope and duration of time of limitation to be imposed.
    The non-competes under Nijisanji are global, which doesn't
    4. Clear scope on what activities are prohibited, and with which parties such activities are limited.
    This is VTubing, as in the thing they are known for and make money doing. The non-compete is prohibiting them from practicing their established trade. This by itself is a significant reason why an non-compete past the point of actual payment is unlikely to hold up in Japanese court.
    5. Importantly, the compensation that the company will pay the employee postemployment for bearing the restrictions.
    Under the best circumstances they will only be given a standard monthly payout. This only justifies the standard 30 day non-compete.

    To the people who are currently a Nijisanji Liver as well as everyone who used to be one, if you are in Japan(whether it be because you're a citizen, have dual citizenship, are there on a work visa, or some other reason), you need to get out of there. When I say that, I mean both quit the company and flee the country. I don't know if seeking asylum or refugee status would work, but none of them should be in Japan.
    When I saw FalseEyeD cover the leaked Nijisanji contract while showing footage from Legal Mindset, I hated the contents of the contract. Not only do I hope that Canadian law rescues Dokibird from every contract she signed, I hope that the countries of the other talents follow suit. Yes, I'm including the former Nijisanji talents in addition to the current talents.
    If the horrors of this contract and the silencing contract are two of the 4 things that Nux knows, I cannot comprehend what could possibly be the remaining two things. If it's anything like what we've learned about Wactor these past 15 months or so, anybody and everybody should be concerned about health, safety, and well-being of current and former Nijisanji talents, more so if they live in Japan.
    I know that a lot of people have problems with various people who are still Nijisanji VTubers, especially when it came to the people formerly known as Zaion LanZa and Selen Tatsuki. That doesn't change the fact that they should not be employed by Nijisanji. I understand that it's not easy from just a financial perspective for the current and former Livers that are living in Japan to just gather their belongings & funds and move to another country. That, and it's difficult to move from one country to another. I don't even know which country I would recommend them to move to. I just don't think any substantive change is going to occur any time soon in Japanese law or especially AnyColor & Nijisanji that will benefit the affected VTubers.
    Sorry if this comment was too long, ignorant, and/or not helpful. I am a powerless, random nobody who does not like the lack and absence of justice and fairness.

    The funny part about the “we aren’t an organized crime syndicate” clause is that the various mobs in the world are known to treat their people better than Ninji. 😂
    And, the reason VShojo pays differently is because US Agents are legally limited to 10%. When I saw 50% I was floored. That is highway robbery for a talent agency. And that $1,300 for equipment when they’re taking 50% is a slap in the face.
    Maybe the most important point is that there is enough immorality and vagueness in the contract to get the whole thing thrown out in court. A judge could literally look over the contract and rule that the agency owes the Vtuber for that other 50%! 😂

    Hey Nux, just wanted to comment on the Non Compete clause, and how I understand as learned from my father, who used to be a business broker(someone who sells business) and had to deal with them a lot.
    Note, I'm only talking from my countries point of view(Australia) and even more specific from my state, and also might be slightly out of date as well.
    No Compete clauses are iffy because they are meant to prevent competition against them, how ever here we have laws that you can't prevent people from working in their chosen field as they still need to make a lively hood. This is why usually here it's based solely around within a certain location from the old business. however this isn't concrete here, as an example he used was when a Real Estate Agent sold his company to another with this clause. His had business, however, covered a large area, so when he instantly turned around and started a new business, the other company didn't seek legal actions against because Legal thought it would fail in court due to how large of an area covered meant that the clause would lose out to the "Can't prevent working in their chosen field.".
    And this is where I think the point here is, because Vtubing is basically a global job, it's impossible to work else where in the field without tripping over Nijisangi. Some would say "work a different job" that would be irrelevant in this case as skills don't carry across between jobs and most people would only get low end jobs which might not be able to cover the expenses of what their previous job had.
    That being said, I could see it being upheld here, but only because of the Time Frame(6 Months) wheres the usually contracts are about 2 years, otherwise it would be considered illegal I feel.
    But Yeah, to me, that "Chosen Field" is an important part of "No Compete Clauses" and why in this case I personally disagree with it here. Hope you found this comment interesting at least.

    So many bad things in this contract.
    Most if this is probably not enforceable in most places.
    As for sending an amendment to the contract, if they do that while you're streaming it could automatically count as accepting the new terms.
    The survivability clause isn't listed as survivable.
    It looks like they can order you to get whatever equipment they want you to get, no matter how expensive it might be, and will only reimburse you $1300, and only the first time. They can order you to get a pair of the latest iPhones to use for streaming and you would have to get them without any reimbursement if they'd already paid you that $1300.
    Just to name a few.
    It's absurd.
