/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Because Hololive fans aren't vtuber fans.

>>22915255
>New /vt/ubers coming out all the time
That's exactly why. Every single no view doesn't deserve a thread, maybe a general for them but then it would just encourage grooming.

>New /vt/ubers coming out all the time Why is it always overwhelmingly hololive with this board? Why don't people support other up and coming vtubers?

>>22915255
there's not much to talk about with new vtubers who don't even have a half a year's worth of work

>>22915302
Whereas other boards on 4chan have a contrarian cultural by nature, /vt/ is the only board that is almost completely focused in it's goal of worshiping one entity.

>>22915332
True, but rooting out some good ones seems like a good topic for a thread.

This board was created solely because of Hololive, newfagchama

>>22915480
Pretty cringe

>>22915255
I tried to. Every western indie vtuber, without exception, ends up having bfs, manipulating their fans for all the cash they're worth, crashing, and burning. VShoujo is too crass for my tastes and NijiEN is difficult to get into when everyone is constantly collabing and I don't know who any of them are.

>>22915480
This board is a containment board just like the bronies.

>>22915255
They hang out in /wvt/

That's great but I'm not addicted to saving twoviews

I barely have time in my day to watch my oshi let alone VODs.

>>22915255
/vt/ was created to stop all the Hololive threads on /jp/

>>22915255
Brand loyalty, cult-like devotion.

>>22915614
Lmao true, no hope for better though?
OP is some random VT I pulled off of twitter debuting soon. Lots of growth in the PNGtuber space too recently
mostly western cringe or normal people though
MUH WAIFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Niggerman help them

Hasn't worked out so well for the 2hus has it?
LOL!!

>>22915255
Welcome to the hololive board, I hope you enjoy your stay.

>>22915255
This is unironically the Hololive board. It was created for Hololive EN.

>>22915880
Ah. You're a jealous roastie 2view, aren't you? Look cupcake, you can either be successful or ride your carousel, but you can't have both.

>>22915839
All those high quality 2hu discussion threads... gone...

Personally, it was something to be expected. It's literally the same story as with youtubers and twitch streamers.
Not a lot of people were doing youtube back in the old days, not a lot of videos to watch.
Some people started recording gameplay, I will take pewdiepie as an example as he is the most recognizable and easy to explain

Pewdiepie started recording videos, there is no chance you didn't saw his happy wheels series.
People started noticing that youtube is getting more and more popular, his videos were being seen by a lot of people, they noticed that the train is starting, and wanted to hop in to become youtuber too.
Justi- I mean twitch, It's the same story. I remember when people were getting on the hype of streaming, tournaments streamed on twitch, and early pro players streaming their gameplay for fans.

Now its vtubers, we had Kizuna AI that managed to reach a lot of people, Siro Channel, Tokino Sora. They were the first vtubers to actually reach big numbers regarding reach and popularity. Were they first to the idea? Of course not. vtubers started long before in 2012. ever heard about Ami Yamato?

If there's a market that grows, there will be more and more people to try and have a share in it, almost like Esports.

Thank you for coming to my ted Talk.

The 2hus...

>>22915255
This is 4chan. That means half the fun of being on boards is watching other people’s ridiculous arguments. Now, how the fuck are we supposed to do that if the catalog is filled with a bunch of threads about 2views no one except the OPs have heard of?

Also, they’re 2views for a reason. Some might be good and literally just getting started with an illustrious career, but the vast majority of them are trash. No one wants to support that shit.

>>22915682
The problem with 2views is that they suck. It’s too early to know if they’re worth it or if they’re too flaky. At least once you get into the low thousands you know they’re somewhat committed to it.

>>22915255
you can make a thread about it. just expect nobody else to care

>>22915255
Unironically i was going through twitch yesterday to look for vtubers to watch. 99% of them just suck.
Like they don't even talk levels of suck. It's 98% dead air and when they do talk it's just awkward as fuck.

It's like if everyone was Ina but without the sexy model or drawing talent. I was really looking for an art vtuber last night and not only do they all suck at streaming, most of them suck at drawing too.

>>22915390
>/vt/ is the only board that is almost completely focused in
Ahem. Elden ring.

>>22919548
I would like to claim my cookie now, thanks

>>22915390
So you haven't been on /a/ or /tv/ huh?

>>22915255
Why are you asking this in the Hololive board? Go to /trash/ if you want to talk about other chuubas

>>22915255
This feels like another stealth MLP thread.

>>22915255
Because most of them suck. I have tried some randoms folks around here have oshi'd. One was great - she promptly vanished, never to be heard from again. The rest... eh, just not my thing.

>>22915255
t. seething re-re-re-re-debutting 2view

>last stream 1 month ago
w-what happened? she was kino with the minesweeper stuff but i stopped watching

One or more of the following non starters
>twitch
>retarded shit on social media
>doesn't stream
Filters most vtubers

>>22915390
That's what /asp/, /wvt/ and /indie/ are for man.

>>22915255
Why does /jp/ need 30 2hu threads when 2hu is .01% of japanese culture? It's just the way it is

It's the same problem with streamers in general. There's the exposure and oversaturation problem, as well as the problem with how long form content is hard to branch out from, from the viewer's perspective, for many reasons, one of which is time. Other reasons are effort needed on their part, unreliability and inconsistency of indies, and so on. For many people, hololive is "good enough"

Imagine for any average vtuber, 1% of their viewers are /here/. For small and new channels, that means they likely don't even have anyone who has seen them, let alone wants to shill their channel here. When you get to larger numbers like holos, 1% of 6k viewers would mean there's 60 people here who can discuss that chuuba.
Even if you play with the numbers, it's easier to have a thread when there's more people. Posts here will always be groups with large followings, or exceptionally /here/ fanbases.

>>22922446
> she

>>22924535
oh fuck off chud

>>22915255
Getting your oshi to actually be discussed /here/ is the worst thing you can do for your oshi. You invite retards to her chat, you invite schizos to monitor her streams for "yabs" or moments of weakness and you undermine your own enjoyment of the content and your oshi's mental state now that you both read anti comments about her /here/.

>>22915255
Let's consider what it is and why it's popular. Okay first off fomo fomo fomo grift grift grift. It's entertainment for extra weebs, or it was, now it's a mainstream grift.

With 99.9% of the other stuff you are basically getting a rebranded streamer who possibly is hiding from a past of shitty behavior. Maybe it's entertaining too but first and foremost GIVE MONEY and don't forget to like and subscribe and kofi and bits and then fuck you chat you're stupid banned can't believe you gave money. Typical streamer stuff. It's entertainment of a sort, but is it the same kind of entertainment?

Is it really the same thing when it's just a lazy rebranding by some jackass looking to get anime popular? Technically maybe, and that's why. Fuck technicalities, it's still shit.

>>22915255
None of them are very good or just tweet instead of stream.

>>22925854
I read some of the tweets where it seems like they're trying to convince themselves they're good people. It really makes me think a lot of them have serious mental problems and are just using this as a way to hide it from themselves. Like an elaborate fantasy to help them cope. It's kind of awkward to watch when they do stream then.

>>22915390
We had asp and wvt but those devolved into cliques of bitter self posters.

>>22927485
This is every thread on this board and not just the bait threads.

>>22915255
/vt/ seems to be the only board where popular=good

>>22915569
>indies, Holo, Niji and VShojo are the only vtuber entities
Every time

>>22928841
I mean... yes?

>>22924929
Go back to your hugbox, tourist.

>>22928943
You're wrong

>>22931287
no u

>>22915255
Hololive was the only topic popular enough to get its own board. Niji and indie Vtuber threads existed on /jp/ for years. It wasn't until /hlg/ and then later Hololive Global blew up in popularity that /vt/ was created.

You can also thank Hololive for the second wave of interest in Vtubers. Without it, Vshoujo and NijiEN wouldn't have become their own things.

>>22928841
Tell your favourite small corpo to git gud, and maybe more people will hear of them

>>22932204
>only one small corpo
You're supposed follow 4+ of them.

>>22915255
If you want to give your 2 view oshi advertising, then either make a thread for them or post in a thread where they qualify as being a part of. Your question is equivalent to asking why people enjoy big name comedians but don't enjoy that guy who tells a joke at open mic night down at the pub.

>>22928752
You mean people don't whine about things like dead games if the numbers dip a little or aren't at AAA levels?

Popular=good is everywhere.

>>22934294
I don't go to /v/ but I'm assuming they aren't fond of the hit game Fortnite. On /a/ there was an anti-Naruto copypasta made in the same vein.

>>22933907
No I won't

>>22934736

You mean the elden ring board?
