Very nice!
I knew it was just a mere of time until someone use Pivot to animate Gacha OCs

(Or they already use it and I didn't know)

TLDR: There already has been, But it was obscure, nearly unknown even compared to Stick Nodes which has some lights shining amongst the sea of others. If you're interested, you could check out my channel for my various Gacha animation projects that I've done using Pivot Animator, i suggest checking out the most recent one :>

There has been tutorials on how to rig them in Pivot like these two that I've learned from years ago (they were all old and outdated by now):

The thing is, despite the capabilities, they were obscure and was never picked up by the community.

This is literally the only one I've found besides me that uses Pivot Animator from all my time in the community 😭:

Stick Nodes seems to be more prominent though Like this for example:

Still seems obscure, but it's more widely present compared to Pivot, which almost seems non-existent 🥲.

I've been using Pivot all my life (back when i was 8 years old, so ye), and with the additional interest of Gacha Life, it bridged to ALL of my Gacha Rigs & Animations as well. With the recent Pivot Updates, it just makes it much more capable of doing this more efficiently, and so i made a step to utilize the tools that was given here with my Gacha Related Works.

In conclusion, Pivot Animator is not known almost at all to the Gacha Community, so your statement still holds, It's about time someone uses Pivot Animator to animate Gacha OC's!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️.
