At the start of the Dokibird return stream on February 8, 2024, the Vtuber noted that she made zero profits in 2023 as Selen Tatsuki with Nijisanji. She also noted that she spent $200,000 Canadian during the course of her role as a performer with the company, and she also asked at the end of her stream that none of her followers “harass or bully anybody.”
The insight into her financials came up during a portion of the stream during which Dokibird was talking about the experiences she’s already had with her new manager and the assistance she can get for her streams and work. At the 21 minute mark, she noted that the manager told her, “We can get sponsors for that. And I was like, ‘Huh?’ And he was like ‘Yeah, you don’t have to pay out of your own pocket anymore.’” She noted “That blew my mind.”
Here’s the full statement regarding how much Dokibird spent as Selen Tatsuki when with Nijisanji, which came up at about the 21:50 mark of her return stream.
By the way, my mom scolded me about this because, you know, during all this she looked at my financials. And I made zero profit last year. She was like, Doki, you have to spend less, because you spent $200,000 last year. And I was like, “That hurt.”
Here is Dokibird’s return stream. It passed one million views since it aired last night.
At the 2:31:20 mark, Dokibird also talked about when Nijisanji announced she had been terminated as Selen Tatsuki. She noted, “As you all know, when the announcement dropped, I was just as surprised as all of you. I only found out because a friend messaged me, and I didn't even know what was in it. I read it for the first time when it went public.” She then discussed the statements she made, as well as noting she had a lawyer who helped edit it, and discussed her hospital stay briefly. At the end of this part at the 2:34:25 mark, she said, “My final note on all of this is, let’s not harass or bully anybody. I already know how that felt. I want us to be adults and not make it high school. I want to move on, focus on us, succeed, and be better.”
Dokibird has not announced a new streaming schedule yet. In Nijisanji's latest statement, it said it expected a "negligible" financial impact from the Selen Tatsuki termination. Hyte recently announced it terminated its business releationship with Nijisanji parent company Anycolor.
