/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Maybe it's cliche but Kuzuha. I fell in and out of following him closely in 2020, I felt that he made a good spot for himself and grew comfortable as a streamer, but 2021 made me 'fall in love' all over again. I think compared to past years he made greater strides in getting more self assured. He's still a lazy fucking brat, and has to be lead into opportunities by someone pulling his ear, but he actually sounded excited to try new things. He is serious about improving his singing and is enjoying it even though he said hates showcasing it, and was proud of his improvement as well as getting to write his own song and collaborate with musicians who inspired him to sing in the first place, people he's been listening to for years. Making new friends on his own, getting healthy (this latest ice cream streak not withstanding), being responsible with Imadog, even the way he vocalized more often that he wants to do more to give back the appreciation he gets, as well as seriously contemplating his position in Nijisanji now. Solo live, milestones, events, etc. The way that today, he gets to speak to people he idolized/looked up to, on the same level. The wise moments he has when talking to his long time friends. The stories others still tell about him that shows that he still acts like an idiot off screen. I don't know if I can find a word for it but I feel an odd sense of pride, as in good for him, and please continue to be passionate in his own Kuzuha way that isn't always apparent at a first glance. I like stories of improvement and his vtuber journey is one. Interspersed between hundreds of hours of ApexValoLeague.
I've made essayposts on here before, but it's been a while. OBOGI LOVE
