It's sad to see the usually cheerful bunny sad.
Inspired by a similar thread I've previously made for a good game studio... that later rebranded.
I didn't watch Aqua much, but she always got along well with those that I did (e.g. Pekora), so it sucks to see her go. The strength of a Vtuber company/corp is in its people's bonds - indies may have more freedom, but they can't easily find other talented comedians or entertainers to regularly collab with.
These bonds forged can't be easily broken, but neither can they be easily forged... and one wonders where Aqua will go after this.
Hopefully this doesn't lead to everyone's favorite blue shork also leaving in the future...

JapanesePeopleTwitter: "Did someone mention correction?"
Headpats and someone going "yoshi, yoshi" work better than sex to modify behavior... I think.

"You ever wondered why shows joke about men building robot girlfriends, but rarely the women building robot boyfriends?"
"Their hands can give them a similitude of sex. But it can't give them a similitude of love..."

Out of respect for Japanese "omotenashi", I won't call it greed... I do think most Japanese people would want to maintain a fair and equal pricing structure for all customers. In a better world, if the economy was booming and people were prospering, there might still be some establishments looking to earn more by fleecing and overcharging tourists. It's fine to call that greed, or taking advantage of demand inelasticity, or whatever.
But... here we are. Times are hard, I get it. Even with overcharging under a dual-pricing structure, tourists will probably continue to visit Japan if they can afford it. It's just a shame that the Japanese will probably have to compromise on some aspects of their omotenashi because of greater factors beyond their control.
Maybe by having a dual pricing structure, they'd be able to realize maximum profits. But not everything is calculable in dollars and cents... all you'd need are a few establishments to start vastly overcharging tourists for whatever cooked up reason and the reputation of Japan for tourists might soon become "nice scenery, nice culture, but the people there will overcharge you because they think they can exploit your ignorance, or just because they can..." - neither of which paints the Japanese in the best light, or the way they'd want to be seen, probably.

With how things are, it's hard to pass up a meme about it. I don't know much, just memeing about what I've picked up from r/sysadmin and other subs.
