Nah he does. He yearns for people to not just shower him in compliments all the time and baby him if you watch. In the nuked week in review stream this week he was saying it was very sweet but untrue that all the bettelion were lying to him and saying that he had no bad streams or moments of content this year when he Knows he does when he was asking for moments for a year in review and what he could improve opon, something like this would help too.
He had his headphones blasting really loud music as he was talking and the music bled through for about 5-10 mins and it was copyrighted, he also spoiled something for year in review/anniversary? on accident with one of his screen transitions. Here’s the vod uncut. https://gofile.io/d/v1N4Rq
I know I shouldn’t doom and worry and I really do trust in altare and axel when they says he’ll back and he just needs time but… cutting his birthday out of the january calendar and instead putting golden hakkito day??? when they put VGs ani is kinda worrying me here.
the fact his image is even there is good enough proof he’ll stay. if he starts getting taken out of official merch (like magnoir with the voice packs that released during their hiatus) i’d start worrying
Didn’t shiny spicy renew their contracts? Why do people worry about graduation now? If Altare did leave now, it would only be a termination from cover, right?
I genuinely wish this fucking fandom would calm down about shit that is very clearly just a minor mistake. My TL immediately filled up with “AIEEEEE WHERE’S HIS BIRTHDAY THEY HATE ALTARE?!?!?!” posts. Even when his oshi mark was on the calendar at that!
Management can be a bunch of fucking morons, but God damn, it was clearly just a mistake. Don’t go for the throat of whoever made this.
Trying to defend management when they’ve consistently screwed up for tempus this year is baffling. Not going for anyone’s head it’s literally just asking where the hell their oshi is. The artist themselves was real confused about it and said it was a first draft and they’re an altventurer as well. Saying that he’s gonna graduate is stupid but you have to imagine how altventurers feel man.
I think people spiralling to “he’s graduating, isn’t he??” based on this are being way too dramatic, but when Altare is already very visibly annoyed with management’s incompetence the least they could do is remember the guy’s official company birthday. There are only really two big dates for StarsEN in January, so it’s not like they had a lot of other events packed in there.
yeah, guess they realize it right away and also do no good for them too especially anything about altare. EN fans already too sensitive because of the last trauma. with their quick take down, it won’t spiral down into negativity
yeah i’m getting flashbacks to when magni and ves didn’t get starting voices during their hiatus and we were all coping hard. but i do want to believe this is different.
they’re not dead, they’re no longer employed by the company. the guys talk about them from time to time so that means we can too. go be bitter somewhere else.
Magves didn’t tweet or weren’t allowed to depending on your perspective. altare has been consistently active on socials and partook in collabs and will probably partake in whatever the tempus boys have planned for new year. Management has been incompetent the entire last half of this year so they either forgot it was his birthday and now can’t amend the error or didn’t care enough to put it.
yeah i know their hiatus is really different from altare’s break so comparing them is pointless but monkey brain recognizes pattern and starts to panic. plus with the severe lack of support and content for stars at the end of this year and his general mood when he announced the break, it’s easy to jump to conclusions. even after all this time i’m still traumatized by those two and their departure lol
Anon, if you’re going to take a calendar with “Golden Hakkito Day!” on it that seriously, you should also note that Altare’s oshi mark is on the “Guild Roundup”
never said it was a rational response, just kneejerk reaction. well it’s been fixed now and just another case of management carelessness so no point dwelling on it at all now.
I mean valid but management have to be actually brain dead if they think that letting altare go out like magves would be a good idea. It would completely demoralize the fanbase on a level that would be unseen. Let’s just trust in altare and hope he comes back strong for his birthday or whatever event he wants to do.
I don’t watch Axel or Betel, why are they the ones with the most girl version fanart? Flayon has his own femzona and Hakka is very feminine in his model, but they don’t nearly get as much fanart of their girl versions. Why is that? Axel doesn’t strike me as girlish, and the few times I have watched betel he sounds like a southern truck mechanic but I guess I get it more because for the model
Axelotl here. For Axel he’s always liked his genderbend/the idea of one, and if you listen to him, he likes a lot of characters with androgynous designs.
But definitely once she was christened “Alice” I think there was no stopping him and the Axelotls from simping for her. Besides that, she’s the girl version that has gotten referenced the most by far, and definitely helped by the fact that she’s the focus character of Axel’s Kyu-Kyurarin cover, not Axel himself. Alice also has some mostly silently agreed upon traits, so fanart of her is pretty consistent: big tits, thighs, no ass, muscle definition to mirror Axel but feminine, and her hair is either a short and girlish version or a longer version of Axel’s. So it’s not a surprise she shows up often.
As for Bettel….I actually really have no idea beyond “Bettel is popular, therefore Betsy is popular”.
they are both coomers and actively encourage people to send spicy stuff (within reason) in their tags on twitter. back when likes were public it was wall to wall fat titted bimbos, bettel liked some VERY borderline betsy art and axel was always on top of the hot girls who cosplay him
When there was discussions about the countdown cancellation, Astel said that Holostars is not getting things handed on a silver platter anymore like before. It made me think that a guaranteed NY outfit budget might have been part of those things Stars JP just got back then, despite their sub numbers (this isn’t meant as a diss), but for EN this year the rules have changed and they haven’t reached whatever goal number they would’ve needed for it? Although sub numbers are a bad way of measuring popularity, unfortunately a lot of celebrations and merch releases for talents are gated behind them.
That kind of doesn’t make sense since I would imagine ReGloss would have gotten their own NY outfits last year or this year if it was sub goal related.
My theory is that they are trading the kimonos for something else. it is around 4-8k for each and we know they sometimes pool their funds for stuff. it is a lot of money $24k-$48k together might actually fund a cool ass project, or maybe even give it to the boys that need it more i.e Shinri (moving /Axel (School) etc. If I was in their shoes I would also choose something else over KimonosArmis might be choosing to do the same because both gens have the highest earners in all male branches so this is really not about cash. That or Incel-mane once again at it who knows.
Sorry to be an asshole but that’s not how funds are allocated. Their budget is undoubtedly set and itemized that “$X is used for assets, outfits, or updates for models” is noted specifically. You can’t just go “Hey can I use the money meant for my model on moving funds or tuition?”, Cover would have a lot of questions.
It’s also why MagNoir getting new models is still contentious even years later: Altare and Axel sacrificed their budgets for a new outfit/updates/accessories for themselves and gave it to them to get a 1.5 update and full 2.0 model (something we know is real because both ex-talents noted that Shiny Spicy “made sacrifices for them” where neither had anything until late December 2023 and January 2024, when they were probably using funds from their new budget).
I definitely would prefer the money for New Year’s outfits be used for other projects, but I don’t think they could be re-allocated to personal expenses like with the Shinri or Axel examples.
When you’re dealing with a corporation, funds are generally categorized for general areas of use, not just completely freeballing it. Otherwise their accounting gets fucked up pretty fast.
I really don’t get why they don’t have them yet. The only 2 branches that don’t have the New Year’s kimono outfits are StarsEN and DEV_IS. I know ID got them super late, but with Advent and Justice both getting them at their 6 month mark, it stands out.
I can only think of 2 things: the boys declined them (no idea why they would since I’m pretty certain kimonos are guaranteed outfits Cover gives everyone) in favor of other things or there is some behind the scenes thing that is stopping them from coming kut (waiting for their Mama’s/Papa’s, not liking the designs, something weird we don’t know, etc.).
I think some of their mamas are really busy, Shinyspicy and bettel being standouts here for Tempus with really busy mamas. It took forever to get axels new outfit because his mama was so busy. I also think that there’s a set budget amount of stuff every year and we did just get 5 out of 6 tempus new outfits this year.
