Wait, you really credit Shima to Vim, and not Shima?

I know Vim likes to take credit, but Shima literally created the character for Second Life,
and Vim just animated them for the show.

From what I recall learning, Vim created the character for Shima? Hadn't heard anything about the Second Life thing or whatnot. There's also the case that Shima's been MIA from the internet, and doesn't personally identify with the character herself.

But hey, if I'm wrong, I'd love to be updated in that regard, could just be a misunderstanding/misinformation on my part.

Her account has a couple FAQ videos, and she explains the origins of Shima once or twice.
There's several different questions, but the one he uses to claim her is just the first one where he designed the character:

She even disproves one of the things Vim says "No one can separate the character from her"
When she just straight up says "The character is an extension of me."

Took a minute to find it, but here's the explanation of her coming up with Shima.

Basically, Vim's been getting people to draw porn of her 24/7 and people are starting to think it's one
of the only plausible reasons she actually just up and left. Especially after a lot of people are saying that
Dolan initially said that only clean art would be done when she signed up.
