There is a very interesting evolution of anti-idolfags evolving into VTuber-antis.
Back in the day when idols first found success, you had all sorts of incels and no-life losers (sometimes fanned by male celebrities jealous of how popular women were compared to male celebs of the time due to the idol industry) stalking and reporting about every single "scandal" in the idol industry in order to bring them down, throw mud on their face and hurt their fans.
Every single schizo idolfag that got into an "incident" would be reported on by 30+ rag magazines and inflated into public consciousness due to how rare such an event is in Japan. And they'd always associate it to "idols" and "idol culture" despite an equal number of stabbigs being from various religious cults in Japan. And obviously this mentality spread to the west as well, since they always pick up the "big news" in Japan.

This obviously did not affect the market of idolsfags AT ALL, they still kept selling out, their fans still showed up for events, and the idol industry is still a pretty big deal in Japan, so much so that it's a dream career path for a lot of young women.
The effect is best seen in the most recent attempt and throwing mud at that one news reporter lady for her Wimbledon thingey or whatever. Right after that "scandal" and all the "outrage" from all the people that were never fans of her, she held her meetup and it was fairly successful, but even there you had two of the seething male announcers bring up her "Wimbledon" thing to try and shit on her despite everything.

90%+ of idolfags do not give a shit if you have a boyfriend or husband or whatever, as long as it doesn't affect your idol activities, content output or general effort. There CAN be the effect of "loving eyes" that's lost if the audience finds out (and the dramaniggers make a "scandal" out of it) and of course the resulting shaming of the normie audience "haha loser throwing money at a girl who's fucking some other guy" with zero understanding of what "idol culture" actually is about.
Which is why the general opinion even in that industry is that while not having a bf is the best method, the second best one is to keep the relationship hidden it if you have one.
Naturally this is MUCH harder to do when your actual face and voice are plastered on to marketing materials and people can make side-by-side pictures of idol performance vs "meeting her bf" to "shame the otaku pigs" as they call this audience.

VTubers have the luxury of completely separating their "real life" from their "idol persona". A lot of VTuber fans emphasise that they love the character, and not the person behind it, and this can be seen in the numbers as well.
This means that any "scandal" that's doxxshit will not affect their public popularity (as already seen by several chuubas both in EN and JP). Of course, the "keep it hidden" aspect carries over to this industry as well, which is why they're asked to never talk about "boyfriends" or "husbands" while they're "in-character", because the character they're playing is eternally single for the audience.
You can't put a side-by-side of Aqua and her roommate kissing a guy or something and make a "scandal" out of it. Magazines won't run it, outsiders will try to scream as usual, but the VTuber fans can just say "who?". And it doesn't matter if the doxx is correct or not, they don't care about the "person inside". So there's never any "scandal", and both the chuuba and their fans can continue enjoying their activities while outsiders continue seething eternally.

This is simply the latest in a long line of attempts to degrade the otaku audience by the so-called "normies" (who are now the actual degenerate eternally single incels, as we've already seen the holo audience having a wide array of normalfags watching them and even attending concerts). It was probably because he saw the 38M Yen Aqua got for graduation and once again wanted to virtue signal by going "haha you incels throwing money at married women".
To the audience, it doesn't matter if this is true or not.
"Minato Aqua" and all her content was for her audience first and foremost.
And that's how she will be remembered.
Idols and VTubers will continue to make the dregs of society seethe eternally.

> tl;dr
> chuuba antis are idol antis of old
> both are incels and low-class males jealous and seething that women are more popular and successful than them in the industry
> idolfags never cared if the idol had a bf/husband as long as they kept it hidden, but it was difficult due to their faces being the same both on and off stage
> VTubers do not have this problem
> VTubers are, again, popular and get a ton of money thrown at them (38M Yen for Aqua graduation)
> because they strictly never bring up their SO on stream, any content on their channel is for their fans alone
> VTuber fans do not care about roommate drama
> this continues to make the modern "normie" (actually degenerate incel) seethe
