With that out of the way, what does one even do in this situation? the feds love putting in the language that says you are ultimately responsible for your taxes, and you have to pay them even if someone who told you they were paying them ended up not doing so. can someone even find the employer liable in the situation?
EDIT: this is not formal or legal tax advice. consult your tax preparer and/or lawyer.
Yes that's my fault in the end for not being educated, but when your entire life is spent having the company do it, I guess I never questioned it as a responsibility.
I figured it was only your job when you're freelance or an owner yourself.
Isn't it normal for employers not to handle tax withholding for independent contractors? Unless they were withholding and not paying the appropriate authorities, of course.
Dunno, I don't see them as much different than hiring voice actors to play a character, with the extra freedom of picking their own schedule so long as it meets a minimum amount of hours per week.
Lots of lawyers have opinions on this but I don't think this particular entertainment form has much case law, if any at all.
Their last two concerts were also a joke one even funnier because Hololive had one at the same time which was much more successful. Niji is so over, lol.
This is the SECOND time a former Nijisanji talent had problems with their taxes thanks to their former agency
And Vshojo is less a retirement home than a Vtuber extraction team at this point with Mint sort of on that list.
There is NO benefit to joining Nijisanji, you're better off being independent if you can't do Hololive or not insane enough for Phase connect.

Oh, glad I just figured this out at 30.

I could be wrong, but my understanding was "there is no excuse for not paying your taxes".

Are company VTubers "independent contractors?" Especially considering the personas belong to the company?
