I don't know if this is the right community or c/anime but whatever

I love Hololive and Hoshimachi Suisei is my absolute favorite. She has her first solo concert tomorrow but Hololive charges bizarre prices for these, 5000 yen (37,63€ or $43,80) for a stream of a digital concert is insane.

So I was wondering if anyone here knows where I could either find a recording of this afterwards or, alternatively, if there are other fans here maybe who'd be interested in buying one ticket together and then one person could stream it to the others and record it perhaps? After buying a ticket you can watch the archived stream until the 21st of November so it should be feasible.

Asking here because as a Hololive fan, most other Hololive fans would rather snap their own necks than pirate something like this. I just wanna watch my favorite anime girl sing ;-;

    my brain straight up melted after I asked myself why I found this instinctively wrong when I easily pirate hundreds of dollars worth of anime and manga a year without even questioning it. Hope you can find some way to enjoy our diamond in the rough.

      I mean I'd rather watch it the legit way, I would even pay money for it. But not 5000 yen.

      From what I read, the talents get a rather large share from their merch sales, so maybe I'll buy that instead.

        No iget what you mean, it's the whole "rather twist your own neck" line. I've pirated enough manga to fill a bookshelf and enough anime to run an anime club for 4 years at least, and have never once even thought about paying money for it or felt bad. But I read this and my brain just went "Suisei earned the money. No one can steal it." and I just had no idea how deep set the Vtubers have become in my head.

          i doubt she's behind the price tag on this, fwiw

          i remember the last big event which involved a lot more talents was also this expensive, the way cover corp monetizes everything is insane. Can't imagine Suisei herself sees too big of a share from the ticket sales

          But yeah we gotta be careful with making excuses for things just because we like them, hololive having shitty business practices is not defensible just because the blue-haired girl sings nice

            Being a musician is a tough business and I don't imagine it being different even when you perform using an avatar
