I haven't actually found any vtubers who advertise their only fans or sing kpop songs.

There's some who do some read alongs like Arypie and Veleck. Yoro wanted to do a little book club thing, but I hear there weren't too many viewers who were interested? Bit of a shame. There's Woyde for lectures on historical linguistics. Kongou often holds lectures on all kinds of things. Mauthe does tarot readings and discusses magic. There's a variety of channels playing specific themes like cooking, history and humanities, weapons, etc.

Is there a philosophical or religious book that explains the rise of vtubers? I know it’s just another form of escapism, but I feel it goes beyond that, and I need some guidance to understand it.

After reading a lot of literature, I'm now completely convinced that there must be a God and thus have decided to become a priest, but I'm worried of this being a wrong decision, I don't wanna do anything that I might regret later on. Does anyone know or have any experience how a priest's life is like? Any literature on the subject?

Books that made me follow this path:
>Crime and Punishment
>The Idiot
>The Brothers Karamazov
>War and Peace
>Les Miserables
>The City of God
>In Search of Lost Time
