Former VShojo talent Veibae has come forward with serious allegations against the now-defunct VTuber agency, claiming the company tried to silence her with legal threats and failed to pay her for past sponsorships, even after her departure.
In a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter), Veibae explained the situation. After she chose to leave VShojo in 2023, she was pressured into signing a strict non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that prevented her from speaking about the company or even discussing her departure with fellow talents.
“And so our NDAs are now void,” she began, referring to the recent closure of VShojo, which officially shut down on July 24, 2025, after reportedly running out of money. “Back in 2023, VShojo tried to bully me into one of the most predatory contracts I have ever seen.”
According to Veibae, when she raised concerns about the contract and asked for clarification, she was met with hostility from the company’s Chief Operating Officer. “The COO got extremely hostile with me and refused to answer any of my questions,” she wrote. “I had to hire a lawyer in order to get some clarification.”
That’s not all; Veibae also claimed that the NDA she was asked to sign would have stopped her from speaking to any of the other VShojo talents about the situation. “I could not say why I was leaving, I could not say what the terms that I was saying no to were,” she explained.
What’s more troubling is her claim that VShojo actively monitored her online activity. “They would watch my streams, read my Discord, and then threaten to sue me,” she wrote. “If I said anything that hinted towards how I really felt about the company, I was threatened with a lawsuit.”
The VTuber went on to say that despite signing the NDA, she was not paid for any sponsorships she had already completed. “After two years, I have still not been paid back fully,” she added.
These revelations come shortly after VShojo’s closure was confirmed by former CEO Justin Ignacio. The company simply ran out of money to continue paying its talent.
As expected, Veibae’s story has sparked a wave of concern and support within the VTuber community. While VShojo once positioned itself as a talent-first agency that allowed creators to retain their independence and IP, Veibae’s admission suggests a much different reality.
