Independent vtuber Ironmouse has announced she is leaving Vshojo, dropping the bombshell that the company had allegedly been pocketing money meant for charity and paying staff.
In a surprise announcement today, she said that the company had not paid the over 500,000 USD that was earmarked for the Immune Deficiency Foundation as a result of her fundraising.
Vshojo has not responded to the allegations as of this writing.
More People Claiming Vshojo Hasn't Paid Them
Her comments were quickly echoed by other talents who had worked with Vshojo even outside of a Vtuber capacity: Music producer Shirobeats also said they were owed "thousands" for work.
"[I] Had to chase people down just to make sure my friends got paid. They even hired someone to “help” with music stuff, but I ended up managing everything while they got paid for my work", Shirobeats says.
This was echoed by other production talents like musician Little V Mills, who says he had also not been paid.
"Oh so they owe everyone money then huh, I thought it was just me lmao", he says.
In a seeming show of solidarity, other active Vshojo talents have removed the company's name from their Twitter handles, with one such talent, Kson, calling for answers from the company.
