It's Kizuna Ai's 5th birthday! On this day 5 years ago, her first video was uploaded and started this whole craze. Time sure flies.

Looking at her is really a bittersweet feeling. Back then VTubing was seen as cool emergent technology where anybody could play a character and have a voice and now VTubers are all just glorified hosts and hostesses for lonely otaku virgins.

This entire line of thought just seemed fucking stupid to me at the time. Some chick (lol probably not even a woman am i right bros?) LARPing as an anime girl wants to be in commercials?
Actually, fuck that, I would never have known/seen this because I'm an EOP and these were added later; at the time, I'd occasionally see clips of her playing vidya and it'd be "oh that's pretty cute I guess but so what?"

Imagine how terrible the product if people went with that idea? That's why 2view chubbas are 2view to begin with. They just aren't that successful in entertaining people.

She's been stuck there for at least 4, maybe 5 months. You would think there would be passive subs coming in but that doesn't seem to be the case. Even Anya can get 10k subs quicker than Kizuna Ai. Here's a comparison. Anya has 133k views on her new cover Phony in over 5 days; Kizuna Ai has only 49k views on a new MV with De De Mouse and her latest cover of Eye is 135k views after over a month. Outside of a few anomalies where she gets a little more views than usual, she probably has the same views that Matsuri gets, maybe even less if you bring the Apex streams into it. Kind of sad that it seems nobody watches Kizuna Ai, excpet maybe on tiktok.

They weren't 2view back in the day and they were plenty capable of entertaining lots of people. Tastes just changed.
