PM report coming a little early because I'm going to the bar to drown my sorrows (kidding, but I am going to the bar and I will be thinking abt Valko the whole time)
6:00PM CDT—lots of good news!
LADS following count: Instagram 923k, X 658.2k, TikTok 900.5k, YouTube 325k
Petitions: 214.7k and 89.5k
AX2026 is becoming the HQ of #bringvalkoback, apparently. The memorial/shrine has grown, people are howling at the LADS booth, and creators such as ironmouse are talking about Valko
Speaking of AX2026, they had to turn the live chat off on their livestream because it was LITERALLY all about Valko
We have confirmation that the LADS official Weibo account viewed Valko's community page (three times!)
VAs such as Tana Tunnell are speaking out in support of the movement
This statement was apparently posted by Infold on RedNote. In summary, it claims the following: all content in LADS is fictitious and not linked to any real-world elements, fabricated content and fake screenshots are considered a "severe infringement upon our brand's reputation and our players' trust", and Infold is mobilizing its legal department and are in the process of gathering evidence and identifying the individuals at fault.
The CN fans that were calculating how much they have spent on the game have reached a new total of 50.5M RMB (about 7M USD)
Apparently, Stack Paper Press in China discovered several organizations paying trolls to spread rumors and misinformation about LADS. Link
Overseas VIP users have submitted a joint petition to Infold regarding the cancellation of Valko's release and the current game operations
Valko supporters have set up a donation for a wildlife conservation center in China (Shan Shui Conservation) in Valko's name. Link
FangirlFetes on X created a fundraiser for getting a billboard in Times Square. The monetary goal was FAR exceeded!
TV Aztec Chihuahua (a Mexican news channel) posted in support of #bringbackvalko
If you need a little pick-me-up, X user aeternusGaia adopted a wolf from a conservation center in Valko's name. She will receive regular updates about little Archie. Here is one of the posts!
DO NOT LOG IN! We're still trying to affect their DAU metric.
Don't expect a statement from Infold until Wednesday. With Anime Expo this weekend, and a historical day in China on the 7th, it's unlikely they will say anything about the situation until then.
Keep fighting! Antis worked for seven days to get Valko's release cancelled. We have to continue to make noise in order to be louder than them.
Don't lose hope! We're making a HUGE impact already!
Take care of yourselves. Take breaks, eat, drink water, and get plenty of rest. Sending my love!
Notes Do NOT log into the game. We need to affect their DAU metric (daily active users) Unfollow on social media (Instagram, X, TikTok, etc.
See you tomorrow my lovelies! To all of my fellow Americans, have a great 4th! While we celebrate our freedom, let's continue fighting for Valko's!
