/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

(New /asp/ie here so hi!)

I have a quick question, to whichI hope some of you have had a similar experience and been in a similar position.

Not to share my whole life story here, but I've been a casual (read: fucking lazy) Twitch streamer/affiliate for four years and I'm really interested in getting into the VTuber/VStreamer space, but I have two concerns:

>My viewers know I'm an anime fan and that I like all of the associated shit (and grill me for me), but my stream isn't *about* anime - I mostly play competitive games, rhythm games and narrative stuff and those are the communities I've come from.

>I'm a known figure (and in some instances senior moderator) in these "not anime" communities and these are the spaces that gave me the injection to get me started with streaming and where my network stemmed from.

With the above in mind, is the best idea to start a new, fresh account and start from scratch again, but try to foster a new community myself, or change my account name, continue on my "main" channel and accept the confusion from the regulars I already and take the cull and lost viewers on the chin?

I'm entertaining the idea of running both accounts at once and treat vtubing as a "secret project" so to speak, but if I'm being sensible I think I'd be fucking stupid to try and run two streams at once and hope to succeed and grow. Maybe keep my "Main" for watching and make a "New" for my streaming but then I'd be sad to start from scratch again!

Any thoughts?
